Chapter 94 New into the Palace
It is said that Lin Yang took Zhao Xin and two beautiful women from the sect all the way. It was more than half a month before he arrived in Luoyang, the imperial capital.
When he arrived outside the city, Zhao Xin sighed: "Wow, the palace is so good!"
Lin Yang glanced at Zhao Xin and said, "This is not a palace. This is just Luoyang, the imperial capital."
Zhao Xin is also thick-skinned enough. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm from the countryside and have never seen the world. This is just the imperial capital. What is the palace like?"
Lin Yang was too lazy to introduce everything about the palace. He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Isn't it coming soon? You will know when you arrive." After saying that, he took the crowd to the gate.
When approaching the gate, Zhao Xin frowned, because a team of soldiers stood at the gate in front of him and knew at a glance that this was not an ordinary soldier, but an army. I don't know what this army is doing at the gate? But seeing that Lin Yang did not mean to stop, he had to follow him.
When I got close, I saw a man in armor in the team. Unlike other soldiers' armor, his identity was obviously different. This man walked to Lin Yang, knelt directly on one knee, held his fists and said loudly, "Welcome the fourth prince back to the palace."
Lin Yang raised his right hand and said, "There is a leader of labor and health. Let's go back to the palace."
Commander Wei stood up and made way. While Commander Wei was sideways, all the soldiers standing behind made way to both sides. Lin Yang didn't say anything more and went straight over. Zhao Xin and the other two felt that they really had a gap with Lin Yang.
A luxurious carriage was parked at the end of the road that Zhao Xin and others had never seen before. This is a carriage horse-drawn by eight horses. In Zhao Xin's eyes, this carriage is bigger than the house he lived in in the free school. Even the stairs of the carriage are covered with red carpets, which are extremely luxurious.
When you board the carriage, you can see a soft couch, with a small table in the middle full of fruit snacks. At this time, several maids were kneeling side by side at the table. After several people came in, several maidservans lowered their heads and dared not say anything.
Lin Yang frowned. He chose Xiuzhen because he didn't like this kind of life and asked to leave the palace to be free. But God played tricks on people and finally came back here.
The carriage was covered with fur of unknown animals, and it was tiresome to step on it. Lin Yang knew that if he had been standing here, no one else would sit down, so he sat on the soft couch first and waved to Zhao Xin and others to sit down.
Zhao Xin was too lazy to pay attention to any etiquette. He sat on the soft couch on one side and closed his eyes and pretended to lie. After Lin Susu and Liu Ruyan sat down shyly, they raised their heads and carefully watched the decoration in the carriage, and couldn't close their mouths in surprise.
Lin Yang waved his hand and said to the maidservant who were kneeling on the ground, "You can retreat first. You don't have to serve here."
How dare several maidservant dared to refute his wishes? They stood up and lowered their heads and walked out. I heard a sound from outside the carriage: "Get up!" Then several people felt that the carriage shook slightly and stabilized down.
After the maids retreated, Lin Yang stared at Zhao Xin and said, "Well, there is no need to pretend to be deep, right? I know what you want to ask. Just say whatever you have.
Zhao Xin opened his eyes, looked at the carriage and said enviously, "This day is really comfortable. Is it so luxurious in the palace?"
Lin Yang frowned and wanted not to answer his question, but when he saw the two girls looking forward to it, he said lightly, "No, the palace is much more luxurious than this carriage. It's just that there are many more rules in the palace than in this carriage. Now you are looking forward to it. Maybe you will be disappointed when you arrive at the palace!"
Lin Susu did not have the initial shyness. Hearing Lin Yang say this, she pouted and asked, "How can you be disappointed? I heard that there are many interesting places and good things in the palace. The glory and wealth are endless. Don't you know that many people want to enter the palace? It is said among the people that entering the palace is the beginning of the transshipment.
Lin Yang smiled and said, "Yes, you're right. You can be transferred after entering the palace. But in the palace, it is more dangerous than anywhere else, and a little poor pool may lose its life. There is a saying that accompanying the king is like a tiger, and there is another saying that entering the door is as deep as the sea. Alas... People who have never entered the palace can never understand the helpless feeling in the palace. But you will realize it right away. Fortunately, you are with me. If I can't stand it, I can send you out at any time.
Zhao Xin stretched out his hand and touched his nose and said lightly, "We are fine. We can leave if we want to. When we are tired of playing, we will leave by ourselves. But Ruyan can't leave with one sentence, don't you think? The imperial concubine..."
Liu Ruyan on one side immediately waved his hand and said, "Since I choose to follow him, I will naturally be where he is."
Lin Yang summed up again: "There are many rules in the palace. In my words, there is no freedom in the palace, and you must abide by the rules of the palace in every move. In a word, don't look at it if it's rude, don't listen if it's rude, don't say it if it's rude, and don't believe it if it's rude in the palace.
Zhao Xin opened his eyes wide and said, "What? Can't you say it's rude? How unfair is that?"
Lin Susu directly stretched out her hand and knocked on Zhao Xin's head and said, "It's not rude, right and wrong...courtesy."
"Isn't it rude?" Zhao Xin rubbed the head knocked by Lin Susu and said.
The atmosphere was eased a lot by Zhao Xin's disturbance. Lin Yang explained with a smile: "It's not what you said about rudeness, but right and wrong, politeness. It means that you don't listen or care about things that don't agree with etiquette, just treat them as if they didn't happen. This is the so-called wise protection. It's like this in the palace. If you can protect yourself, everything will be fine.
Zhao Xin nodded and suddenly said, "Oh, so that's it! You should have said that a long time ago. I haven't read many books, just a martial artist, and I can't understand those who tell me. I see. You mean, no matter what happens in the palace, don't ask, right?
Lin Yang nodded and shook his head and said, "It can be said, but it's not all. If you don't care about what is within your duty, it's dereliction of duty and a death penalty!"
"Ah? Isn't it so serious? It doesn't matter. You really have to put your head on the waist of your trousers in the palace!" Zhao Xin pretended to be surprised.
When Zhao Xin just finished speaking, Lin Yang patted his palm and said, "That's the point. I've been thinking about how to describe it. Yes, just put your head on the waist of your trousers and be careful at any time."
Zhao Xin didn't expect that he was really fooled by himself when he just made a joke, and he was speechless for a moment. So he turned his attention and turned his head to look at the other side. Lin Susu reached out and lifted the curtain to look out.
I saw the carriage walking on the streets of the imperial capital, with people on both sides, but no one approached. Two rows of heavily armed soldiers walked on each side and surrounded the carriage. Hugh said that it was close to the carriage, but no one spoke loudly as the carriage passed by.
After looking for a while, I found that no matter where I went, it was the same scene. I put down the curtains and sat back. Lin Yang said lightly, "Now you know, when you get glory and wealth, you will lose something. As a royal man, everyone envies the supreme glory, but we will never be able to enjoy the happiness of ordinary people and touch the noise of this city. It's very quiet here, maybe it should be... lonely!"
Zhao Xin was also stunned. He seemed to hear helplessness in Lin Yang's words, and even some desolation. Zhao Xin patted Lin Yang on the shoulder and said, "These are not problems. I will come out with you more when I have time. My Royal Highness!"
Listening to Zhao Xin's half-joking words, Lin Yang warmed his heart and patted Zhao Xin on the shoulder and said, "It's not as simple as you think, but I, Lin Yang, will be very happy if you have this heart, good brother."
While talking, the carriage seemed to stop for a moment and then move forward again. Lin Yang closed his eyes and said, "I have entered the palace."
Although several people were curious, they still didn't open the curtains to take a look. Because no one can hear the whispers of people outside the car or the admiration of envy, it seems that the world has returned to tranquility.
After walking for about a while, the carriage stopped and the door was opened. The guard leader who was responsible for welcoming them stood outside and arched his hand and said, "Fourth prince, when you arrive at your courtyard, take a rest first. Wang is waiting for you in the imperial study."
Lin Yang took several people out of the carriage and nodded and said, "I know. Commander Wei has worked hard. You can also go down and have a rest."
Commander Wei nodded gently and jumped into the carriage and left in a carriage. Lin Yang looked at the lost carriage and sighed, "It's difficult to come back and get out again!"
Zhao Xin came over and said, "It's not like a prince who sighed!" Let's go in first. Didn't that guy say that your father was waiting for you?"
Lin Yang nodded and said, "Well, I won't go in first. You can go directly with me to see my father, and the two of them will stay here first." With that, he went to the door and called a little eunuch to say a few words and pointed to Lin Susu.
The little eunuch respectfully walked to Lin Susu and Liu Ruyan and bowed and said, "Two girls, please come with me." After saying that, he turned around and walked in.
Liu Ruyan looked at Lin Yang. Seeing that Lin Yang nodded and followed the little eunuch, Lin Susu naturally followed him.
Lin Yang straightened his clothes and said, "Let's go and meet the king of this country with me."
Zhao Xin was still sighing about the atmosphere of the building here and didn't hear what Lin Yang said. He nodded and followed Lin Yang.
