The next morning.
Li Wenbo put on his Feiyu uniform, tied on his embroidered spring knife, said hello to Lin Yi, and rushed to the Zhenfu Division for duty.
Prepare to investigate the case of Song Xiao, the son of the Minister of Justice.
Lin Yi stayed up all night last night.
I feel a little nervous inside.
At noon, he was going to meet the top decision-maker of the Dayan Dynasty, the king with more than ten thousand people.
At this time.
Zhang Jiuer took the new clothes and boots that Mrs. Zhang gave her and knocked on Lin Yi's door: "Lin Yi, are you awake?"
"Jiu'er!"
Lin Yi opened the door and chuckled: "So early...is this?"
He was attracted by the clothes Zhang Jiuer was holding.
"Mother said that today is an important day for you to enter the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. You should dress up decently and don't lose etiquette!"
Zhang Jiuer blushed and said, "These are the clothes and boots I picked from the cloth store. I don't know if they will fit. Let's try them on!"
"this……"
Lin Yi was moved in his heart and said, "Thank you, Miss Jiu'er. I was thinking about wearing that dress just now."
"Let me comb your hair!"
Zhang Jiuer didn't wait for Lin Yi to refuse, so he pressed Lin Yi in front of the bronze mirror and combed Lin Yi's hair.
Her face turned red.
I was a little reserved and shy at first, but soon I got into the mood.
And he also put on the Neo-Confucian shirt and boots for Lin Yi.
Shortly after.
A young man with handsome appearance and elegant temperament stood in front of the bronze mirror, as handsome as jade.
"nice!"
Zhang Jiuer was distracted for a moment, attracted by Lin Yi's temperament and appearance.
"I can do these myself!"
Lin Yi wanted to refuse just now, but Zhang Jiuer said that she would go to Qingshan Academy soon and asked her to comb her hair.
Like a book boy, just once!
He understands her heart.
But Lin Yi didn't want to face this kind of personal relationship between children for the time being. First of all, his soul age was much older than Zhang Jiuer's.
Secondly, his current thoughts are not on this.
He is a person who is easily bound by emotions. He doesn't want to fall too deep and be unable to let go.
I also don’t want to leave too many weaknesses for the enemy.
He is destined to make many enemies in his life!
"The meaning is different!"
Zhang Jiuer looked at Lin Yi with a smile and said: "It's very good-looking and has a good spirit. It should leave a good impression on His Majesty."
"Thank you, Jiu'er!"
Lin Yi looked at Zhang Jiuer.
"Why are you thanking me? It's Jiu'er's honor to be able to comb the hair of Mr. Lin."
She laughed like a bell and left the room.
'Jiu'er, people like me are destined not to have emotional bonds. I can't give you anything, but I will do my best to protect you, mother and daughter, for the rest of their lives! '
Lin also knew the path he wanted to take.
This road is full of thorns.
"I don't know what kind of monarch Emperor Dayan is..."
Lin Yi looked towards the direction of the palace, feeling deeply grateful to the emperor who sent Yan Shuangwu, Long San and others to him.
Although he has not seen it.
But he could feel the emperor's recognition of him.
Just because he wanted to be an official, beheaded Qian Qingwen, and stood on the opposite side of those unscrupulous scholars, the Emperor of Dayan allowed Long Wei to protect him in Nanxiang Mansion.
In fact, when he first met Yan Shuangwu at the Nanxiang Prefecture magistrate's office, he had a special feeling.
Long Wei came for him.
"I know Emperor Dayan's heart, so I interpret the provincial examination as if he is determined to win. I want to see him..."
Lin Yi put away the list given to him by Li Wenbo, and at the same time packed the silver dragon soft armor given by King Teng in a brocade box.
Quietly waiting for the arrival of noon.
Waiting for someone to come from the palace.
Time passed quietly.
Mrs. Zhang looked at the door, becoming more and more nervous. Soon he saw a team of palace guards and a middle-aged man wearing a red flying fish suit.
The other person has a cold, emotionless face.
"coming!"
"Someone is coming from the palace!"
Mrs. Zhang quickly opened the courtyard door and shouted into the courtyard. At the same time, she clasped her hands together and prayed non-stop. She was extremely excited inside.
Her future uncle will soon enter the palace to meet His Majesty, and will definitely become a high official in the future.
My daughter will definitely enjoy the blessings in the future.
The child is her father.
We are worthy of the ancestors of your Zhang family...
"coming!"
Lin Yi took a deep breath. At that moment, he also showed maturity and stability that was not belonging to a young man.
Walk out of the room.
Lin also saw Mrs. Zhang bowing here and there, and saw Zhang Jiuer watching from the corner of the garden in the courtyard.
"Scholar Lin!"
At this moment, Yan Shuangwu, the commander of Longweidu, led a team into Zhang's house.
This time, he was the one responsible for bringing Lin Yi into the palace.
The purpose was that His Majesty wanted to reduce Lin Yi's tension, so it was perfect to choose Yan Shuangwu, whom Lin Yi was most familiar with.
"Master Yan!"
Lin Yi also didn't expect that the person who took him into the palace would be Yan Shuangwu, the commander of the Dragon Guard.
Yan Shuangwu looked Lin Yi up and down, and secretly thought that this was no worse than other princes who grew up in the palace.
"His Majesty is waiting in the palace, let's set off now!"
Yan Shuangwu said seriously.
As he said this, he glanced at Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Jiuer, nodded slightly, and said hello.
Mrs. Zhang smiled.
"Okay, Lord Lao Yan will lead the way!" Lin Yi nodded.
Yan Shuang Wudang even signaled Lin Yi to walk in front, glanced at the large brocade box Lin Yi was holding, and asked curiously: "Scholar Lin brought gifts when he entered the palace?"
"It's for return!"
It was impossible for him to accept the silver dragon soft armor given to Prince Teng by the late emperor.
Putting aside whether your majesty will be suspicious, the value of this silver dragon soft armor alone is very important, so it is most appropriate to return it to your majesty.
"oh?"
Yan Shuangwu was a little surprised.
"A gift from Prince Teng!" Lin Yi explained.
"Understood!"
Yan Shuangwu understood immediately and muttered in his heart: "Actually, you can accept it..."
Afterwards, he took Lin Yi away from the Zhang family and walked towards the palace. The palace guard went out and many neighbors came out to watch the fun.
Mrs. Zhang stood at the door, watching Lin Yi and the team go away, and asked curiously: "Daughter, who is the man in the big red robe? Why isn't that father-in-law here?"
"Mom, please remember clearly. That person is dressed as the commander of the Dragon Guard. He is a high official who can meet His Majesty at any time!"
Zhang Jiuer explained: "Of all the officials in the world, he is the one who fears the most!"
"He was my greatest boss before he was alive, and then there was Your Majesty..."
"What!"
Mrs. Zhang was so frightened that the makeup on her face almost melted off.
This adult actually greeted them just now...
…
at the same time.
In the palace.
"Mei Zheren, do you want me to change my clothes? Let the clothes supervisor prepare it?"
Lin Yunhong stood outside the royal study, wondering whether he should change his court clothes.
He was also inexplicably nervous.
I couldn't help but wonder, if Huang'er found out that he was the uncle who went to Zhang's house for dinner, would he suspect something?
For example, I doubt the story he told.
Mei Zheren's wife covered her mouth and chuckled: "Your Majesty, I think it's better not to change. You see, Your Highness only entered the palace to see you after winning the imperial examination. Of course..."
"Why did he enter the palace after passing the exam?"
Lin Yunhong raised his leg and kicked the sissy Mei Zheren, and said sternly: "In my opinion, he entered the palace as my prince, and asked the supervisor to prepare casual clothes, and I met him as a family member!"
"I also told the dining room to cook more dishes. People in Nanxiang eat spicy food, so put more chili peppers. I remember that at Zhang's house he ate more pickled mustard than chicken, duck and fish, so prepare some too!"
"Also, remove the guards in the palace. I want to take a walk in the palace!"
"In addition, I have given an oral instruction to the guards of the Forbidden Army. Except for Yan Shuangwu and Lin Yi, no one is allowed in unless it is an emergency, no matter what rank they are in!"
Lin Yunhong's mouth curled up unconsciously.
This silly boy.
We had a hard time before, right?
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Mei Zheren bowed and responded, then immediately gave the order.
I thought that Your Majesty has never been so attentive to the two young princes in the palace and the princes outside the palace.
…
Lin Yunhong wore casual clothes and walked toward the palace gate alone. He didn't want to wait in the imperial study room.
It would be better to meet him in front of the palace gate.
Now that the palace guards and eunuchs have all retreated, the entire palace suddenly seems much deserted.
But Lin Yunhong just wanted to do this, so that he could have a good chat with his prince without anyone disturbing him.
The time should be coming soon!
at the same time.
In front of the palace gate.
Yan Shuangwu and the palace guard of honor arrived in front of the palace gate. The city gate guard saluted Yan Shuangwu: "Master Yan!"
The city gate guard opened the city gate and let Yan Shuangwu and Lin Yi in, but the other palace honor guards were blocked outside.
"Your Majesty has ordered that Master Yan and Lin Yi enter the palace, and no one else is allowed to enter for the time being!"
All the ceremonial guards sat down outside the palace gate.
"Master Yan, your Majesty, what is this?"
Lin Yi was puzzled and his heart was lifted.
"It's okay, I'll just take you in!"
Yan Shuangwu chuckled and signaled Lin Yi not to be nervous.
Your Majesty just wants to be alone with you.
really.
Yan Shuangwu took Lin Yi a few steps and saw Lin Yunhong in the distance, wearing casual clothes and standing with his hands behind his back.
He understood instantly and looked at Lin Yidao: "Scholar Lin, I suddenly remembered that something happened, please go directly there!"
Lin Yi saw Lin Yunhong not far away with his back turned to him and said: "Master Yan, what do you mean, this master will take the students to see His Majesty?"
"kindness!"
Yan Shuangwu nodded slightly, and then walked out of the palace gate directly, taking away Lin Yi's brocade box containing the Silver Dragon Soft Armor...
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment.
He looked around. Inside the huge palace wall, it was eerily quiet. There was not a single eunuch guard or palace maid in sight. It seemed different from the movie and TV drama scenes in his mind.
"Your Majesty, what does this mean?"
Lin Yi was confused and felt that this meeting was a little different.
The scene in his mind should be that he was taken directly to the Imperial Study Room, and then met with His Majesty to talk about Nanxiang Mansion.
Let’s talk about topics such as scholars’ opinions on using literature to mess up the law.
Unexpectedly.
But it's this way.
Lin Yi did not dare to waste Emperor Dayan's time, so he walked quickly towards the person with his back turned.
"This sir..."
But as soon as Lin Yi walked over and spoke, the man turned around and looked at him with a smile.
"Sir, is it you?"
Lin Yi was stunned at that time.
Isn't this the same gentleman who visited his colleagues with Zhao Tai and had a meal at Zhang's house?
It was this gentleman who offered to get him a household registration in the capital.

You are the cutest!
