Right now, Lin Beifan was dancing on the edge of a knife. His head could fall off anytime.
Therefore, once there was an opportunity, he would immediately turn it into strength.
Following Lin Beifan's order
, Ding! The host has embezzled 450,000 taels of gold and silver. The amount is huge. The reward is to fuse with the Sect Leader Linghu (Later Stage) template!”
A powerful force quickly merged into Lin Beifan's body.
Then, another memory entered his mind.
Lin Beifan knew that he was absorbing Sect Leader Linghu's good fortune, so he sat cross-legged and started absorbing.
Meanwhile, in the Imperial Palace.
A Brocade Guard was reporting the situation to the empress.
"Your Majesty, under the leadership of the new top scorer, Lin Beifan, we have made rapid progress! They had already searched the residences of 28 censors and found a total of 600,000 taels of treasure! Your Majesty, please investigate!"
"How preposterous!" the empress slammed the table and stood up. As a censor, he had set an example for the court. Not only did he not set an example, but he also embezzled 600,000 treasures, which was more than 20,000 per person! From this, one could see how corrupted the imperial court was. I'm afraid it's worse than I imagined!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down!" The Embroidered Uniform Guards lowered their heads.
"How do you want me to appease my anger?" The empress said angrily,"They're taking the salary of the imperial court. Not only did they not share my worries, but they also dragged me down. I wish I could skin them alive!" Investigate! Investigate them thoroughly, one by one! If they didn't know, they would be fined a year's salary and retained for investigation! If he knowingly violated the law, immediately remove the black gauze hat on his head and send him to prison!”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The Embroidered Uniform Guard said respectfully.
After throwing her tantrum, the empress was still unhappy.
If it wasn't for the fact that the imperial court was in need of talents, how could she have spared their lives?
It was because she had not been in office for long and there were too few people she could trust.
The imperial court could not operate without these people, so it was restricted everywhere and could only kill some small fish and prawns to vent its anger!
Seeing the Embroidered Uniform Guards hesitating to speak, the empress frowned."What else do you have to say? Speak!"
"Your Majesty, it's about the new top scholar, Lin Beifan!”
"Lin Beifan?"
At the mention of Lin Beifan, the empress's brows finally relaxed a little.
Among all the officials in the imperial court, she admired Lin Beifan the most.
It was not that the children of aristocratic families were innocent, that they were talented, that they were compassionate, that they were not afraid of the officials, and that they took the initiative to take on great responsibilities. This was the talent she had been looking for.
If she trained him seriously, he would definitely be a loyal minister who would assist her in her great cause in the future.
The only drawback was that he was too young and had little experience in politics. He was still unable to take on heavy responsibilities.
Otherwise, she really wanted to promote Lin Beifan to a high position.
"What is it about him?”The empress smiled.
"Your Majesty, it's like this!”The Embroidered Uniform Guards glanced at the empress's expression and carefully said: "The new top scorer, Lin Beifan, stole 450,000 taels of treasure during the ransacking process. He only put the remaining 150,000 taels into the national treasury!”
The smile on the empress's face gradually froze.
He clenched his fists tightly, as if he wanted to hammer someone to death.
This bastard!
He embezzled a huge sum of money and threw the change to her!
I was wondering why he was so proactive at that time, causing her to be a little touched. So it turned out that he had planned it for a long time!
This damned bastard!
This is the crime of deceiving the sovereign, do you understand?
Do you still have any thoughts of loyalty in your heart?
"You can go down first." The empress waved her hand weakly.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The Embroidered Guard retreated.
After a while, the empress said calmly,"Sister Qingxuan, you heard it too. Help me take a look!”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" A white shadow flashed.
At this moment, Lin Beifan had finished absorbing Sect Leader Linghu's fortune.
His cultivation did not increase at all.
However, his strength had increased by a large margin. It should not be a problem for him to face ordinary Xiantian experts.
This was mainly because Sect Leader Linghu's strength was really nothing compared to the son of King Zhennan. His inner energy was inferior, his lightness skill was inferior, and his martial arts techniques were also inferior.
However, Sect Leader Linghu still had many redeeming qualities.
For example, he had received a very systematic and formal martial arts education since he was young. His foundation was solid, which the prince could not compare to.
He knew a lot of martial arts, including some fist and foot martial arts, Huashan Sword Art, Five Mountains Sword Art, Star Absorbing Grand Magic, and the emasculated version of Yijin Jing, which made up for his original shortcomings.
Most importantly…
Nine Swords Beyond the Swords!
This was a set of top-notch sword techniques that had been passed down to Sword Demon, a set that countless people dreamed of!
Winning without a move, allowing the weak to defeat the strong, it was very impressive!
"The current me can be considered a sword expert!”Lin Beifan was very happy.
As a man, who didn't have the dream of crossing the world with a sword?
It would be a pity if he didn't have the chance to go out and explore this world of high martial arts!
However, he planned to realize this dream when he could no longer be an official.
He walked the world with his sword and fought with the heroes of the forest!
Taste the love of Jianghu!
When he saw injustice on the road, he would help and kill a corrupt official like him!
Just thinking about it made him happy!
"Let's get down to business first. It's time to distribute the money again!”
Lin Beifan crushed the two chests of treasure, then changed into black clothes and went out to distribute the money.
She was completely unaware that a white figure was following behind her.
