Concubine Gaomen (54)

Lin Yutong was in Beijing for the first time and knew what a traffic jam was.

On the road leading to the palace, carriages and sedan chairs were all crowded together. Civil and military officials of the fourth rank or above in Beijing, as well as noble clan members, all rushed towards the palace. Isn't this crowded together? There are also those with lower official positions.

Yes, if you encounter someone with a higher official position behind you, you will have to rush forward and let the higher-ranking person pass first. Therefore, it becomes more and more crowded. There are some generals on horseback.

It's actually faster to slip over the edge.

Lin Yutong was sitting in the carriage, feeling a little irritated by the people around him shouting about horses.

In the final analysis, Xue Fang and the two still did not believe that they could protect them. Of course, this was understandable. In the eyes of others, they and Fourth Master were also princesses and consorts of unknown origin. They had no power in their hands, so it was no wonder that others

They don't believe in their own promises. They want to make this lawsuit a big deal. In this way, when the matter is over, others will not dare to come to take revenge. Even if the two of them die, their families can be saved. In fact, this is still scary.

The forces behind Yuan. In their eyes, they were the ones who made the guarantee, but the fourth master was also the son of Duke Jin. And the two of them knew the relationship between Duke Jin and Chu Yuan. They felt

, the Fourth Master is more likely to favor his family members among themselves.

It was this little doubt and distrust that made things immediately deviate from the direction.

That's why it is said that smart people are the hardest to master. Because they are smart, they are conceited. They have reservations about everyone and only believe in their own judgment.

At this time, it started to rain slowly outside, and the raindrops hit the roof of the carriage, making people even more anxious.

Lin Yutong lifted the curtain and took a look outside. The speed of this carriage could only be described as crawling.

"What's going on?" she asked Guiwu loudly.

Guiwu frowned and pointed forward, "There are several elders and old princes' sedans in front of us. No one dares to rush them." Not only did they not dare to rush, they also did not dare to pass. Therefore, no matter how anxious they were, everyone had to

Keep grinding.

Sanxi pulled Lin Yutong to sit back and said, "It's raining. Master, please put on your boots?"

Lin Yutong looked to both sides and saw that the horseman was now leading the horse away. She immediately took off the embroidered shoes on her feet, took the boots in Sanxi's hand and put them on her feet, "You all stay in the car.

, just walk slowly. Don’t be in a hurry.”

"Master..." Before Sanxi could understand the question, he saw Lin Yutong jumping out of the carriage in a blink of an eye.

It was already noisy outside, but a stunning young woman suddenly got out of the carriage, and now all the people who were in a hurry to enter the palace were all the rich men. Therefore, when this woman appeared, the people around her were inevitably surprised.

I wonder who this brave person is, daring to take the women out for a walk.

Lin Yutong didn't care about this, and ran towards the roadside in a few steps, passing in front of a family's carriage. The coachman suddenly pulled the reins of the horse, and asked the adult sitting inside to suddenly move forward.

"What's going on?" A majestic voice came from inside.

The groom turned around and whispered: "There is a girl running in front of our carriage."

Just run over, run over. What can you do to someone at such a speed? Thinking of this, the beard on his mouth curled up, and he suddenly realized that something was wrong. He just said that the person who came over was a girl.

Nonsense!

Everyone is in a hurry to enter the palace. Whose girl is so bold? Does anyone dare to have fun on the carriage entering the palace?

As a censor, Song Cheng's keen sense of smell told him that he would not be able to participate in another book today.

He opened the curtain and looked outside. He saw the girl stopping a general who was holding a horse. She didn't know what she said. Then she grabbed the reins from the man's hand and pushed him aside in a few steps.

, and then I saw her somehow jump and land on the horse lightly.

He knew this general, met him, and found out that his name was Wu Kui. It was said that he was also a strong general who had been on the battlefield. Why did he let the horse go like this? There were so many people, and none of them had a low status. Ma Ma would have been shocked.

, this is going to cause big trouble.

Just as he was about to call Wu Kui to stop, he heard someone on the carriage driving alongside him shout twice: "Your Highness! Your Highness!"

Your Highness?

Which Your Highness?

At this age and gender, she can only be Princess Kumogakure.

This princess has always been very low-key, what happened today? These two calls successfully suppressed the whispers around her, and no one dared to speak anymore.

Lin Yutong whispered to the general: "The carriage was lent to the general."

Wu Kui stared blankly at the woman riding his horse, moving in the gap, and soon rushed to the front. His horse came off the battlefield, when had he allowed others to ride on it? It seemed like this beast

He can also tell the difference between beauty and ugliness. When he sees a beauty, there is nothing he can't do to flatter him. Just because this woman is a beauty, his charming thoughts arose, but when he thought of someone calling this woman "Your Highness", he was suddenly frightened.

. Looking back, I saw that a carriage had become the focus of everyone's attention. The boy standing beside the horse and the girl sitting on the carriage shaft were all stretching their necks to look in the direction of the horse's departure.

At this time, a colleague asked from behind: "...when did you climb up to the princess?"

Wu Kui smiled bitterly in his heart, but couldn't answer. What does it mean to climb up to a princess? Who knew it was a princess?

The expression of Song Cheng Yushi who was sitting in the carriage was even worse. What happened to the princess? Can the princess ride a horse and gallop in such an environment?

If Lin Yutong knew the censor's dissatisfaction, he would have rolled his eyes at him! Damn it! Who was galloping on horseback? Even if he wanted to gallop, he had to run. This is basically horse racing through obstacles, okay?

But it was better than being stuck in a sedan chair. When the rain slowly picked up, we were already at the palace gate. I handed the sign directly to the palace, told the guards to hand over the horse to a bearded general, and entered the palace directly.

The guard is a little confused. There are a lot of these ginseng generals, and more than half of them have big beards. Where can we find this bearded ginseng general? We can only tie the horse to one side and ask someone to take good care of it. Then we can find someone.

Find out who its owner is.

And everyone who saw Lin Yutong felt in their hearts that this time, the matter of climbing the Wengu had something to do with this princess? Otherwise, why was she in such a hurry? After keeping a low profile for so long, she popped out in such a posture. What happened?

What does it mean?

When Lin Yutong entered Beichen Palace, the rain really started to rain. He walked along the corridor to the back hall and saw Mrs. Gan sitting by the window. Outside was the lake. The raindrops hit the lake, creating ripples in circles.

"Go inside and change your clothes first." Mrs. Gan looked at Lin Yutong, "How can you serve the people below and let you enter the palace in the rain?"

Lin Yutong smiled, her body was indeed wet, and turned around to follow Grandma He in.

Just seeing the clothes inside made her startled, and she couldn't help but look at Aunt He: "Am I wearing this?"

A bright red palace dress with a fluttering phoenix embroidered with gold thread.

This is a big show! Why is this so important in the palace?

Lin Yutong first let Aunt He and others change her clothes, and then let them finish dressing up. Then she walked out. Seeing Mrs. Gan still staring at the rain outside the window in a daze, she explained: "What's going on today?"

It was a bit unexpected.”

Mr. Gan smiled: "You! You are still kind-hearted. In fact, it is better for us. Chu Yuan will have no way to escape. When the drum sounds, the capital and the world will pay attention. This is not someone who wants to avoid being able to

The emperor can't avoid it. What do you have to worry about? The emperor doesn't know that Jin Chengan is secretly dissatisfied and defensive about Chu Yuan. He is also worried that forcing Chu Yuan like this will make Jin Chengan take risks. And what are you worried about?

Are you worried about the safety of Xue Fang? But why don't you think about it first, they broke the law first. No matter how capable they are or how helpless they are, the law is the law!" She looked sternly.

Slowly becoming serious, "Put away your sympathy. There are many helpless people in the world, and there are many people who don't deserve to die. But there are some bottom lines that, no matter what the reason, they should not touch in the first place!"

Lin Yutong's face couldn't help but become solemn. No wonder the fourth master only said to save his life and work as a staff first. It turned out that the root was here. She sighed in her heart, come on! Some professions require talent. For example, the emperor, this profession is really not

Anyone can pull it off. When Fourth Master saw that he had made a promise, he didn't refute it, but he guided the matter in a disguised way on the right path.

But Gan opened his mouth and spoke to Bai! This was forcing himself to face his own weakness.

Soft-hearted! Emotional!

Lin Yutong himself is also a little helpless. Compared with these people, he is the one who knows best that 'every law must be followed'. But he is the only one who cannot grasp the bottom line in his heart. Imperial power is an existence that can transcend the law, but the hand

Those who hold imperial power must have a steelyard in their hearts. But here, the stars on the steelyard are blurry.

In other words, what I follow is not the existing law, but the law in my own heart. This sin should not lead to death, and that sin should not affect my family. In my heart, this is right! But if I sit down

If the people on the throne think this way, the people below will inevitably be at a loss as to what to do. Whether to follow the emperor's wishes or follow the law is a conflict. In the context of the supremacy of imperial power, it would be terrible for everyone to act in accordance with the will of the emperor.

In the past, I was very close to the imperial power. But after all, I only stood behind the Fourth Master. Even if I have such a weakness, I can only use the words "harem" and "women's house" to explain it. No one will elevate this to the level of

a height.

Now, it really can't be like this anymore.

This may not seem like a problem, but actually it is a fatal problem for me.

Seeing Lin Yutong deep in thought, Mrs. Gan felt relieved: "You don't need to hit the drum with a heavy hammer. As I said, do you understand the pros and cons?"

Lin Yutong nodded. It was because he understood so well that he broke into a cold sweat. It is said that emperors are loners. When a person cannot have much human touch, he becomes a loner. She took a deep breath and said, "I understand!" She was still a loner.

I wanted to ask what she would do if the Gan family was involved this time. There was no need to ask now. As soon as Gan said these words, she knew the answer.

The main hall was full of people, but it was quiet, no one made a sound.

Emperor Yongkang strode in and sat down amidst the shouts of long live by the ministers. Then he looked at the people kneeling before his Highness and said, "Get back on your feet!"

Seeing everyone standing up from the ground, and then poking at the main hall one by one with their eyes, nose, and heart, Emperor Yongkang coughed, "It has been more than two hundred years since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty. This has been since the Tai|zu Dynasty.

After that, did you hear the sound of the Dengwen drum for the second time?"

The censor of the Song Dynasty lowered his head. The censor's desk has the responsibility of supervising all officials. Now some people are not willing to beat the drum. How big is the matter here? What does this mean? It shows that the emperor's words are not making sense! It shows that these censors are not making sense.

History is all responsible for oversight.

Chu Yuan frowned. He had already asked someone to see who was beating the drum. But the person who reported the news said that he didn't know him, didn't know, and couldn't find out his identity.

This is really strange.

Of course, it’s not just Chu Yuan who can’t find out. The real Fang Zhao back then and the fake Xue Heng today have been changing their faces and hiding in Xue Mansion in a low-key manner. People with evil intentions are naturally afraid of others. They are afraid of being investigated by others.
