The next morning, Xiao Min came to the inn to look for Tang Yin. At the same time, he brought a large bundle. When he opened it, he found that it contained armor, military uniforms, and a long and narrow sword.
Xiao Min said to Tang Yin: "Try these on and see if they fit you." Tang Yin picked up the helmet and looked through it. To be honest, the armors of the palace guards were not as exquisite as the armors worn by ordinary soldiers of Anguo.
But compared to Feng Guo's leather armor, it was much stronger. He nodded, then looked at Xiao Min with a smile without saying anything.
"Why don't you change it? Why are you staring at me?" Xiao Min had a bad temper. When she saw Tang Yin staring at her, she immediately made a dissatisfied voice. After a pause, she realized that Tang Yin was waiting for her to go out.
She pouted her lips and murmured in a low voice: "A grown man still has so many problems..." After saying this, she quickly walked out of Tang Yin's room.
After Xiao Min left, Tang Yin took off his casual clothes and put on the military uniform of the palace guard. Most of the military uniforms were made of cotton, and some were made of brocade, which made him feel refreshed and comfortable. After putting it on, Tang Yin looked down.
Look, he nodded secretly. Xiao Min had a good vision, and the military uniform he brought fit him well. Then, Lotte and Jiang Fan both stepped forward and helped Tang Yin put on the helmet, breastplate, shoulder pads, knee pads and other trivial armor one by one.
, At the same time, Letian frowned and said: "Sir, Xiao Min only brought a set of armor and military uniforms. I'm afraid Jiang Fan and I won't be able to get into the palace!" Tang Yin smiled calmly and said: "You don't have to follow me this time.
The forbidden area of the palace is heavily guarded. If there are many people there, it will be easy to be exposed." "But..." Letian and Jiang Fan were really worried about letting Tang Yin go to the palace alone. If someone saw the clues, they would even take action.
Come, there won't even be anyone to take care of you.
Seeing the worries of Lotte and Jiang Fan, Tang Yin shrugged nonchalantly and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Even if there is an accident, I really can't defeat the opponent. I can always get away if I run." Hearing what he said, Lotte and Jiang Fan were all worried.
Jiang Fan glanced at each other, his brows still furrowed, but he didn't say anything more. They were very confident in Tang Yin's skills, but in the forbidden area of the palace, the masters among them should not be underestimated.
After all the armor was neatly put on, Tang Yin picked up the sword on the table, hung it on his waist, straightened his body, and asked Lotte, Jiang Fan, and Jiang Lu with a smile: "How is it? Do I look like a palace guard?"
?" Before Letian and Jiang Fan could speak, Jiang Lu had already laughed and said: "Your Majesty, you are so handsome. No matter who wears this armor, there will be no one as powerful as you!" "Haha!" Tang Yin chuckled lightly.
, turned around and walked to the door, opened the door, and smiled at Xiao Min who was waiting outside: "Xiao Min, I kept you waiting." After hearing the words, Xiao Min, who was standing with his back to the door, turned around hurriedly.
Seeing Tang Yin in military uniform, Xiao Min's eyes also lit up. Tang Yin was tall and tall, with a perfect body shape, broad shoulders and thick back, and slender legs. Although he could not be called burly, he was a bit skinny, but he was not by any means.
It gives people a sickly feeling, coupled with his handsome appearance and wearing a majestic military uniform, the sinister aura is weakened a lot, making him more masculine and majestic.
No wonder Her Royal Highness the Princess would never forget Tang Yin. He is indeed a man who can make women fall in love with him at just one glance. Besides, Her Royal Highness the Princess has never seen many men since she was a child. Xiao Min sighed secretly. She has a good impression of Tang Yin, but this
Good impression is just a good impression between friends, not a relationship between a man and a woman.
She raised her head, smiled at Tang Yin, and praised: "This military uniform fits you very well, and it suits you very well!" "Thank you." Tang Yin nodded and thanked her, not only to thank Xiao Min for her praise, but also to thank her for taking great risks to help her.
This is busy.
Xiao Min understood what he meant, restrained her smile, and said faintly: "I'm helping you...actually, it's mainly to help the princess..." After a pause, she took a deep breath, cheered up, and said: "It's getting late, so we should
Let's go." "Wait a moment." Tang Yin waved his hand to her, then walked back to the room and said to Lotte, Jiang Fan, and Jiang Lu: "While I'm away, you don't need to go anywhere while you stay in the inn. Now
The capital city is also full of dangers." Lotte, Jiang Fan, and Jiang Lu naturally understood what Tang Yin meant. Just yesterday, when Tang Yin arrived at the inn, a mysterious dark spiritual cultivator followed him and eavesdropped outside the room.
Do you know if the other party will suddenly attack you?!
The three of them bowed in response, and at the same time reminded in unison: "Sir, please be more careful." "Yes!" Tang Yin responded, without any further delay, he simply explained a few words, and followed Xiao Min out of the inn.
Xiao Min came on horseback, and Tang Yin also had his own horse. They both got on their horses and went straight to Tianzi Mountain in the center of the capital.
The Imperial Palace, where the Emperor of the Haotian Empire resides, is also the true core of the entire country. The decline of imperial power has not affected the style and majesty of the Imperial Palace. The closer you get to the Imperial Palace, the more heartfelt it will be.
The imperial palace is built around the mountain, with five floors up and down. Looking from a distance, the densely packed and magnificent palaces seem to surround the entire Tianzi Mountain, with countless high platforms and pavilions mixed in.
The palace is actually more like an independent and huge castle. It is difficult to imagine how much manpower and money such a huge project cost, and it is also difficult to imagine that it was the product of thousands of years ago.
This also shows the prosperity and heyday of the Haotian Empire in its early days.
Xiao Min took Tang Yin through the west palace gate, not the main entrance. Even so, the spacious and tall palace gate was still staggering. Tang Yin looked at it a few times and estimated that the palace gate was three meters high and six or seven meters wide.
On both sides of the palace gate, there is a stone pillar as tall as a cloud, as white as jade, on which are carefully carved auspicious beasts and totems such as flying phoenix, coiling dragon, unicorn, etc. Looking to the left and right, there are many soldiers and armors.
The palace guards. Tang Yin didn't know exactly how many guards were standing guard at the palace gate. He just looked up and saw a dense crowd with bright helmets and powerful momentum. They stood on the same spot, motionless, as if they were standing on guard.
Wood carvings and stone sculptures are general.
The majesty of the palace was indeed unmatched anywhere else! Tang Yin followed Xiao Min and walked inside, nodding his head in praise in his heart.
As soon as they reached the palace gate, guards on both sides stepped forward and looked at Xiao Min and Tang Yin. Then they all bowed and saluted, and said respectfully: "General Xiao!" Xiao Min is Yin Rou's guard.
As the chief, she was a confidant and held an important position. She often went in and out of the palace, so the palace guards who were responsible for guarding the palace gates naturally knew her.
Xiao Min was already accustomed to their respectful attitude. She sat on the horse and waved her hand slightly. She didn't say anything more, and she didn't introduce Tang Yin's identity to the guards guarding the door. She directly urged the horse to pass through the crowd and enter the palace.
Tang Yin followed Xiao Min closely and entered the palace.
Since he was wearing the armor of a palace guard and following Xiao Min, even though the guards guarding the palace gate didn't recognize him, they didn't dare to stop him. They all stepped aside to let Tang Yin enter the palace.
Entering the palace gate, what greets you is an extremely spacious square. The ground is paved with milky white square tiles. Each square tile is about one meter long and has various patterns carved on it. Tang Yin followed Xiao Min out of the square.
Even from a distance, I didn't see any square tiles with the same pattern.
There are still many guards here, one next to another, and there are many more patrolling guards. Groups of guards walk across the square from time to time.
After crossing the square and walking along a wide and long corridor, there were endless steps in front of me.
Xiao Min turned around and winked at Tang Yin, then turned over and dismounted. The latter followed suit and floated down from the horse.
At this time, two guards immediately ran forward quickly, grabbed the horse's reins, and led it aside.
Xiao Min led Tang Yin up the steps, and as she walked up, she said softly: "The palace has five floors. The one we just walked through is the first floor. To the south is the Tai'an Palace, which is where the emperor and ministers discuss matters.
"Tang Yin nodded in understanding. He just walked through the first floor of the palace and it took such a long time. If the court were built on the top of the mountain, the ministers would be tired and vomited blood every day. Tang Yin asked casually in a low voice.
: "How many palaces are there in the palace? From the outside, there seem to be quite a few." "There are a total of five hundred palaces that can be called palaces. As for the ordinary pavilions, I can't count them. They are probably in the thousands!"
"Xiao Min replied lightly.
Tang Yin was astonished when he heard this. Five hundred palaces and thousands of pavilions, how many royal families could be accommodated? Even the army could store hundreds of thousands of people. Such waste and extravagance, no wonder Haotian
The imperial power of the empire would fall into the hands of the various vassal states.
He stopped asking about the layout of the palace, changed the subject, and said, "You must have told Her Royal Highness that I will enter the palace today, right?" Xiao Min looked back at him in surprise, and said with a smile, "How did you know?
?” “I think if Her Royal Highness the Princess does not agree, even if you have the courage, you would not dare to bring me here privately, let alone see the princess.” “You are quite smart!” “Haha!” Tang Yin
Unable to help laughing, she asked half-jokingly: "Do I look stupid?" Xiao Min was so amused by him that he laughed softly and said nothing.
After finally reaching the end of the steps, he passed through a spacious square and a long corridor. Stairs appeared in front of him again. It seemed that this step was not much shorter than the previous one. Tang Yin sighed with a wry smile and asked
"We are going to the third floor of the palace now, right?" "That's right." "Excuse me, which floor of the palace does Her Royal Highness live on?" "Of course it's the top floor!" Xiao Min answered confidently and turned around at the same time.
Tang Yin rolled his eyes, as if to blame him for asking such nonsense.
Tang Yin shook his head and said with a smile: "Does Her Highness the Princess have to walk such a long way every time she leaves and enters the palace?" "You can rest assured that if the princess really wants to go in and out of the palace, someone will pick her up in a sedan chair. However, usually the princess
