As soon as the carriage drove into the "Shamao Street", Lin Xi felt that the whole street was much noisy than before. Lin Xi slightly opened the curtain and saw that there were many carriages gathered in front of the "Zhang Mansion" door, and various things were constantly being moved from these carriages, which were obviously gifts.

"Stop right at the side door."

Lin Xi sat in the carriage and whispered to the driver. Lin Xi had already understood that these people were probably coming for him. A new servant is worthy of being attracted by most court officials, and he had no mansion, so these people naturally came to Zhang Moben. However, seeing the door of Zhang's mansion was closed, it seemed that Zhang Moben had ignored the matter.

The carriage that Lin Xi is now riding is specially equipped for him by Shaofu Temple, and the coachman has become his special coachman. After Lin Xi ordered, the coachman quietly parked the carriage at the side door of Zhang's mansion. Fortunately, there was no gift-giving person on the side door, so Lin Xi got off the carriage and knocked on the side door. The servant inside recognized Lin Xi at a glance, and immediately opened the side door and let the carriage enter the Zhang's mansion.

It’s ridiculous that a man who had just been in the court and was serving as a servant, should have opened the mansion door and entered in a grand manner, but now he needs to go to the side door to sneak in. Thinking of this, Lin Xi smiled helplessly!

Now the news of Lin Xi's official serving as a servant has spread throughout the dynasty. Many people have begun to discuss that in a few years, Lin Xi's place among the third-rank officials, Yin Qing Guanglu Doctor. There are even some voices saying that Lin Xi will become the youngest six ministers and nine ministers in the history of the Da Shang Dynasty. The servants of the Zhang Mansion also heard these rumors. When they saw Lin Xi, they were not only extremely happy, but also more respectful.

However, Lin Xi didn't care about these things. No matter how glorious he is now, he could not change his original intention. Even if he exchanged the position of Taifu, he would still rescue his mother and return to Heishan!

In the Zhang Mansion tea room, Zhang Moben was still wearing white ancient clothes. Today, when he saw Lin Xi, he did not speak, but just nodded slightly. Then he pushed a cup of tea in front of Lin Xi.

"Students are about to enter the palace. What does the teacher teach students?" Lin Xi knelt on the brocade mat and bowed to Zhang Moben.

"The teacher has nothing to teach you. Very good, you did a good job!" Zhang Moben picked up the teacup, sipped it gently, and said slowly.

"Then the student will say goodbye first." Lin Xi bowed again, but there was no words. The master and apprentice said three words in front and afterwards, Lin Xi stood up and left.

The "East Chamber" is just like his name. This place is a row of buildings similar to the wing room, located in the southeast corner of the entire imperial city. Although this place belongs to the scope of the imperial palace, it is only an outer court. The so-called outer court is the place where the emperor handles political affairs, and it is naturally the inner palace. The inner palace is the place where the emperor and his concubines live. Although the servants of the Shaofu have the freedom to enter and exit the forbidden palace, it is limited to the outer court. Apart from the emperor, there is only the Taifu who can enter and exit freely without summons!

The outer court and the inner palace are bounded by the "Xuanwu Gate". There is an independent army in the Jiacheng of the Xuanwu Gate. This army is the most mysterious "Imperial Guard" of the Da Shang Dynasty, and its command organization is called the "Northern Ya"!

The outer court is mainly composed of the "Hanyuan Hall", which is composed of Xuanzheng Hall, Zichen Hall, Penglai Hall, Hanliang Hall and Xuanwu Hall. The inner palace buildings are not named after the hall, but are mostly named after the palace pavilions. For example, the Changle and Weiyang Palaces, and the most common imperial study room in contemporary Shanghuang is the "Dongnu Pavilion" in the inner palace.

Lin Xi walked into the courtyard where the "East Chamber" was located. The hall saw more than ten people standing in the courtyard as if waiting for him. The person led by these people was a man in his early thirties. This man was wearing the same official uniform of the servant general. He must be another servant general on duty today.

The three servants in the "East Chamber" all work for two days and have one day off. The three of them rotate, which is just right for sure that there are two people at any time.

"Haha, Shizhong Lin is here. Have you ever seen Shizhong Lin before!" As soon as Lin Xi entered the courtyard, the leading man walked towards Lin Xi and ordered the people behind him to greet him.

"Lin Xi, the new young master of the young mansion, have you seen you all!" Seeing this, Lin Xi stopped and saluted everyone. The person in charge was naturally another servant, and the others were just eunuchs serving in the palace in the east wing. The "East Fang" is located in the palace, so except for the three servants, the others are eunuchs.

"In Xialiang Yuzhou, I hope to have a happy cooperation with Shizhong Lin in the future!"

"It turned out to be Liang Shizhong, who has been admired for a long time. When he was the first to serve as the Shizhong, it is inevitable that many places would ask Liang Shizhong for advice. I hope Liang Shizhong will give him advice!" After Liang Yuzhou reported his name, Lin Xi naturally became polite. After this, the relationship between the two was immediately much more harmonious.

"Hahahaha, Shi Zhong Lin is polite. It's up inside!" Liang Yuzhou laughed and couldn't help but pull Lin Xi and walked towards a row of wing rooms. But for a moment, the two of them seemed like old friends for many years.

In the central wing room, the two of them sat down. A little eunuch immediately sent incense tea, which was a unique item in the palace. Usually, the Shizhong Office was in the wing room where the two were now. If they were not with the emperor, the Shizhong would basically spend the day in this east wing!

Liang Yuzhou is in his early thirties. Although he is much older than Lin Xi, it is still very impressive to be a Shizhong at the age of thirty. Liang Yuzhou naturally understood that Lin Xi's future achievements may still be better than him, so he showed great enthusiasm for Lin Xi. In the wing room, Liang Yuzhou kept explaining some precautions and daily work principles to Lin Xi.

Before he knew it, it was dusk. During the conversation with Liang Yuzhou, Lin Xi did know a lot. When it was time to eat, Lin Xi took the initiative to ask him to stay on duty and let Liang Yuzhou go first. Because there is a rule of the east wing, even if it was time to eat, there must be a servant in the east wing to wait for the emperor to summon him.

After leaving Liang Yuzhou, only Lin Xi was left in the main room of the "East Chamber". When he had nothing to do, Lin Xi read various memorials placed on a row of long tables. These memorials were approved by the Emperor Shang, because the Shang Dynasty prohibited eunuchs from participating in the government affairs, and even the content of the memorials was not allowed to be seen. Therefore, the several servants in the East Chamber had another responsibility, which was to send the memorials approved by the emperor to six ministries and nine temples and all states and cities in the world!

There are no less than a hundred memorials on the long table, and these are all reviewed by the Emperor of Shang in one day. Seeing so many memorials, Lin Xi couldn't help but feel that Emperor of Shang was very busy every day. Not to mention thinking about how to deal with these things, even just reading these memorials is an extremely time-consuming task.

Lin Xi casually read several memorials. Most of these memorials were submitted by governors of various states or city lords, and most of them were either flooded or locust plagues were caused. There were even some memorials from generals, either a certain sect was ready to move, or a family was secretly recruiting soldiers and making plans. After reading these memorials, Lin Xi discovered that the Shang Dynasty, which seemed to be peaceful in the past three hundred years, still had many unstable factors. It was not easy for an emperor to govern a country. Looking at the replies on those memorials, Lin Xi saw the unknown side of a generation of emperors for the first time. At least such a huge and complex workload was not something that anyone could persevere! I am afraid that at this moment, when the family was supposed to have dinner together, the Shang Emperor was still reviewing the memorials with a light?

Shortly after Lin Xi read the memorial, a sharp sound suddenly came from outside the house. This sound was unique to the eunuch, but the eunuch's words were related to Lin Xi.

"Can the new young master Lin be there?"

Hearing the eunuch's voice, Lin Xi put down the memorial and walked out of the wing room. Lin Xi didn't know the eunuch in front of him, but the eunuch dressed exactly like Eunuch Gao, which means that this person is also a powerhouse eunuch. Lin Xi didn't ask at the moment: "Lin Xi is here, I wonder what this father-in-law has to do?"

"The prince's oral order is passed on. The Eastern Palace will hold a banquet tonight. I will invite Shizhong Lin to go there." The old eunuch said in a sharp voice. However, he did not expect that he would actually pass on the prince's will.

The identity of the prince is extremely sensitive because he is a subject in front of the emperor, but in front of the subjects, the prince is a king. It is precisely this identity that makes the prince rarely interact with court officials. Lin Xi did not expect that on the first day he entered the palace, he was not summoned by the emperor, but was summoned by the prince first!

Although he was a little confused, the prince was still the king after all. Now Lin Xi plays the role of a court official, and he has to obey the orders of the king.

"I obey the order!" Lin Xi knelt down on the ground and replied loudly. As for his departure, there was no matter where the servants stayed at the entire "East Chamber", but he didn't have to worry about it. Once he left, there would definitely be eunuchs going to find Liang Yuzhou immediately. Even if the emperor was there and the order was made, it would be a matter between the emperor and the prince!

"Shizhong Lin, please follow me." The old eunuch said in a low voice and turned around and left. Lin Xi did not answer, so he followed the old eunuch out of the 'east wing'.

The East Palace where the prince is located is no longer an outer court or an inner palace, but an independent palace built next to the east side of the palace. Even the setting of the government offices in the East Palace was built imitated by the imperial court. The only difference is that these government offices are only responsible for the affairs of the East Palace.

The east gate of the palace is the gate of the East Palace. Lin Xi saw in front of the East Palace that the armor worn by the soldiers here was somewhat different from that of the palace, and these soldiers should be the so-called "East Palace Guards". This is a guard directly belonging to the prince. The "East Palace Guards" are divided into two guards, with a number of 1,500 guards in each guard. In other words, the prince has an army with an independent military power of up to 3,000!
