Chapter 22: The Throne

"Didn't you say you could save me?" Xiao Lin stared at Su He, what he said before was fine, and suddenly he was going to see the throne, although he was sometimes a little nervous, but in the face of the most powerful people in the empire, he was still a little empty, and with a casual wave of his hand, he could be wiped out.

"What do you mean, haven't I been protecting you all the time?" Su He was confused, not knowing why this little young master was dissatisfied.

"I'm going to see the throne, I'm going to be dissected. ”

"You are the owner of the door, and it is not normal for the throne not to see you. Su He rubbed his head and had a headache, "The throne is not terrible, what you have to worry about is the envoys of the other three empires, they are the ones who are planning to dissect you." ”

Su He's face was very serious in the end, this time the audience with the throne was very crucial, although he said so, but he didn't know what the throne would do, and he could only take one step at a time.

"Don't think about it so much, adjust your state in the past two days, I will say hello to the ghost hand and give you a reduction in the amount, after all, the situation is special. Sukh said slowly.

Xiao Lin nodded, the whole person was a little confused, in fact, he was a little confused for the next two days, his mind was full of thinking about what would happen when he met the throne, he might have been filmed to death before he finished speaking, or he might have been put in prison and interrogated carefully, or he was lying in the research room and was dissected by a group of people, and his messy thoughts were darker than the other.

Xiao Lin's head kept popping up with all kinds of strange thoughts, and if Su He knew what he was thinking, he would probably roll his eyes again.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, Xiao Lin was pulled up from the bed by Su He early in the morning, and Su He came with four palace maids, the palace maids wore silk satin, the color was very plain, and there were some patterns embroidered on it, there were flowers and plants, there were blue patterns on the side of the clothes, and there was a sachet hanging around the waist, and there were bursts of fragrance.

When the four of them saw Xiao Lin, they immediately smiled at him and started a set of complicated and tedious washing projects, fetching water and putting spices.

Xiao Lin looked calm but a little impatient as he watched the two beautiful sisters touch him, one helped him wash his face and wipe some spices, the other began to measure his figure, rummaging through the clothes he carried, and the other two maids were helping back and forth on the side.

"As for it?" Xiao Lin was a little helpless, seeing that a throne still had to go through such a process, he was most annoyed by this kind of trouble.

"Seeing the throne is naturally sloppy. Su He looked smiling, but there was a glimmer of light in his eyes, Xiao Lin was not as shocked as he imagined in the face of the palace maid's service, as if this child had experienced this kind of thing a long time ago, and looking at Xiao Lin's appearance, he was still a little dissatisfied with the maid's service attitude.

"You'd better be able to come up with a set of arguments right now. Suhe was silent for a while, and suddenly spoke, his voice was very soft, but there was a deep sword shadow.

"Rhetoric?"

"About your past. ”

Xiao Lin was silent, lowered his head and fiddled with his newly changed clothes, and did not speak again, the palace clothes were indeed more comfortable than his own linen clothes, and some boundless thoughts came out of his mind.

Su He kept staring at Xiao Lin, with a light like a knife in his eyes, but he quickly retracted the light in his eyes and became relaxed and casual: "I know you don't want to talk about your past, but the throne is not so easy to deal with." ”

"I've heard of the throne, but what exactly is the throne?" Xiao Lin said to him, "the most powerful person in a country?"

"It can also be said that every country has royalty. Su He knew that Xiao Lin didn't want to talk about that topic, so he didn't break it, and followed his words, "But the royal family doesn't participate in any decision-making, they only have symbolic meaning, the power of the entire country is concentrated in the hands of the throne, the royal family is hereditary, the throne is not, whoever has the strongest ability sits in that position." ”

"No one can take care of him?"

"No, so the throne is very strict, and it is necessary to be absolutely loyal to the Empire, and it must be recognized as the strongest. ”...

"Let's go. Xiao Lin stood up and straightened the clothes on his body, and while the two of them were talking, he had completed the steps of changing clothes and washing, and he could set off to see the throne.

"Where is the throne?" Xiao Lin followed Su He on a transport ship, although the branch stronghold of the Black Court was not far from the emperor, but each of the four empires had a vast territory, and it was said that it was not far away, and if you just walked, you wouldn't be able to reach it in a day.

"Heavenly Palace. ”

"This name ......" Xiao Lin was a little speechless, he really couldn't complain about this name.

"The palace where the throne of the Tianxiang Empire is located to handle affairs is referred to as the Heavenly Palace. Su He explained to Xiao Lin with a smile.

"Don't talk about it, it's better not to explain. Xiao Lin leaned on the side of the window of the transport ship, looked at the scenery below, and said angrily.

The distance that ordinary people can only cross by walking for a day and a night, the transport ship arrived in just half an hour.

Xiao Lin stood in front of the throne palace, looking at the towering buildings, silent.

"Isn't it spectacular?" Su He stood beside Xiao Lin, also looking up into the distance.

"It's not what I imagined, it feels a little ...... Soil?" Xiao Lin carefully considered the words, and finally came up with this heart-piercing word.

The palace of the highest power in the Tianxiang Empire was not as magnificent as Xiao Lin had imagined, the entire complex was a dark tone, exuding a metallic luster, a sparkling moat separated the palace from the rest of the imperial capital, and a wide bridge connected the two banks.

At intervals on the bridge, there would be an automatic turret, which would rotate around and keep watch, and if it came across anyone who was randomly on the bridge, it would open fire.

Across the bridge is a huge square, the square is extremely open, the size should be hundreds of times the size of the black court arena, and it is difficult to see the boundary at a glance.

After Xiao Lin followed Su He through the square, there was a building that reached into the sky, which was the main hall of the throne, the Heavenly Palace.

The Heavenly Palace is very large, not only towering into the sky but also very wide, almost about the same length as the square in front, and there are forts lined up outside each floor, the Heavenly Palace is not only a palace, but also a fortress of war, and a huge destructive power can break out when there is a war.

"The Heavenly Palace has a hundred floors, and the throne is on the ninety-ninth floor. Su He explained to Xiao Lin.

"The top floor is royalty?"

"The royal family lives in the royal palace, not here, but on the top floor is a monument or cemetery, where the victims of the years sleep. Su He's expression was serious, he looked up at the pavilion in the sky, and bowed slightly.

Subsequently, after the two of them were in charge, they stepped on the escalator to reach the ninety-ninth floor.

When he came here, Xiao Lin saw the luxury that should belong to the throne, obviously it was only a floor in the Heavenly Palace, but it was decorated like a palace, with agarwood carved furniture, all kinds of historical artifacts, and a row of huge bookcases, on which countless books were displayed.

In the center of the floor was a huge meeting room, where a long table with a dark red and quaint temperament was placed, surrounded by dozens of chairs, and there were already many people in the room, dressed in different costumes, and it seemed that they should be sent by the other three empires.

And the throne of Tianxiang was sitting on the throne drinking tea, listening to the chatter of the people around him, and behind the throne stood a woman in silver armor, with long blue hair, blue eyes, and stars and moonlight in her eyes.

"Su He is here!" the butler said, and the people around the table immediately fell silent, and turned their heads to look at Su He and Xiao Lin who were standing at the door.

But everyone's eyes were almost focused on Xiao Lin's body, and a pair of eyes stared at the child like searchlights.

Xiao Lin was a little uncomfortable, anyone would be awkward to be watched by more than a dozen people, it felt like being stripped naked and standing in the crowd.

The throne stood up from the main throne and walked towards Xiao Lin and them with a smile: "Brother Suhe, I haven't seen you for a long time." He patted Su He's shoulder affectionately, and didn't even look at Xiao Lin.

The throne took Sukh's hand affectionately and asked this and that, shushh

Xiao Lin silently stood aside and looked at the most powerful man in the Tianxiang Empire.

The throne is a man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, with a crisp and neat head, wearing only a black tight vest, revealing a pair of thick muscular arms, a hideous tiger head tattooed on his right arm, a pair of jet-black shorts, and slippers on his feet.

Xiao Lin stared at this throne in a daze, and couldn't help but think in his heart, is this really a throne? No matter how you look at it, this looks like a bandit leader or a gang member, this style and dress are too strange.

Since the throne is so casual, why should he be so carefully washed and dressed, and he can go on the road with a towel in his hand, which can save some time.

"Why, go over and stand up, standing in front of the table. Su He urged softly in Xiao Lin.

Only then did Xiao Lin react and stand in front of everyone, accepting the temptation of everyone's eyes, as if he wanted to see through his whole body.

The throne sat on the main seat, holding his chin with one hand and looking at Xiao Lin with sleepy eyes, his eyes scanning up and down without focus, feeling like picking radishes in the vegetable market.

"Your name is Xiao Lin?"

"Yes. ”

"Where did you get it?"

"Qingzhu Town. ”

"I'm asking about your true origins. ”

"Qingzhu Town. ”

"Hey. The throne chuckled, and a light slowly appeared in his eyes, "It's kind of interesting, haven't you always wanted to see him, what do you want to say now?"

A middle-aged man in a purple robe with gold trim stood up, saluted to the throne of Tianxiang, looked at Xiao Lin and said, "We want to see the strength of this kid first, after all, seeing is believing." ”

Sukh was the first to be dissatisfied: "Do you think we found a random person to fool?"

"Don't dare, but always make sure. The purple-robed man clenched his fists at Su He, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant.

Su He glared and wanted to attack, but was stopped by a look from the throne: "Since this is the case, then please move to the training ground, I also want to see the power of the door." ”

The throne looked at Xiao Lin and smiled, there was a murderous aura in his smile, and there was also a sonorous sword collision.
