Yinzhi sat down and waved at him. Han Tong bowed and then turned to walk outside. After he walked out, he closed the door considerately.
Yinzhi's attendant walked around the room, confirmed that there was no danger, tested the poison himself, and then poured tea for Yinzhi.
Yinzhi stood up, walked to the window and stood there, his eyes falling on the tracks downstairs.
There, a completely black train was parked, and men in police uniforms were carrying boxes of things onto the platform.
Yinzhi knew that those were goods collected along the way.
In the past two years, the supplies in the capital have become increasingly abundant.
The attendant came up and looked down along his line of sight. Seeing the tiny figure standing next to the train, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Master, is this train safe? Otherwise, should we go to Tianjin Port to take a boat?"
When Yinzhi heard this, he looked up and glanced at him with an indescribable expression.
"Do you think it's safe to take a boat?"
It is only the beginning of summer now, and the monsoon at sea is not that strong yet. In two months, typhoons will become more frequent.
During the years he was in the navy, he encountered typhoons almost every year. A long time ago, when there was no cement, it was not uncommon for tents to be blown over by typhoons.
What’s more, there are ships drifting on the water.
Only after truly witnessing the mighty power of heaven and earth can one feel how insignificant and inadequate humans are.
But now…
Yinzhi glanced at the giant steel beast below again, and he suddenly felt that perhaps one day in the future, humans would be able to overcome natural disasters.
The long-servant was stunned when he heard this, then smiled awkwardly and said,
"Slave... I was thinking that we should be more familiar with the water route..."
"This railway has been open for several years. Have you heard of any accidents?"
The attendant frowned and thought for a moment, then hesitated and said,
“This…is not the case.”
But that doesn't mean this train is not dangerous.
He felt scared when he saw the car body that was dozens of meters long.
Although traveling by water is not very safe, he knows about boats.
Yinzhi saw through his thoughts, smiled and shook his head.
"You've been following me for almost ten years, and yet you're not as courageous as the common people out there..."
When the long-servant heard this, he was immediately unhappy.
"master……"
"Alright, if my predictions are correct, this thing will be deployed throughout the Qing Dynasty. You'll eventually become familiar with it. Besides... do you want to be my personal attendant for the rest of your life? Don't you want to lead your own troops and explore the world?"
The long-servant's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"You mean..."
Yinzhi chuckled, his eyes moved upwards, and then gradually became blank.
"This king is already at the age of knowing his destiny. How many more years can he continue to fight outside?"
After staying in the capital for a few months and raising several lovely grandchildren, he felt a little lazy. There were moments when he wanted to stay in the capital to retire.
The long-servant opened his mouth and was about to say a few nice words to comfort Yinzhi when there was suddenly a noise outside.
The two looked downstairs curiously, and found that the train had started checking tickets.
Seeing that most people downstairs were carrying large and small bags, but were squeezing into the carriage in a very orderly manner, both of them were a little curious.
After taking a look, the long-servant was somewhat dissatisfied.
"Why didn't Lord Han come to inform us?"
In his impression, at such times, people with high status should go in first, and then it would be the turn of ordinary people.
In fact, it wasn't just him, everyone felt this way at the beginning.
But now, only people who have rarely taken a train think so.
Yinzhi also frowned, but said nothing. He stood quietly by the window, watching the crowds on the platform.
Soon, there was a knock on the door, and the guard at the door said,
"Your Highness! Lord Han is here."
"Send him in."
The door creaked open, revealing Han Tong's sweat-covered face.
"Your Highness, have you been waiting for a long time? There was a problem with the goods just now, and I was unable to send someone to explain it to you immediately..."
He wanted to explain it to Yinzhi, but Yinzhi didn't want to listen at all.
"No need to explain to me, can I go down now?"
He had been in the military camp for a long time and hated listening to people nagging him the most.
"You can't get off yet... The train still has an incense stick's worth of time left before it departs. Even if you get off now, you'll still be stuck inside the carriage, so you'll have to wait a while."
Another layer of sweat accumulated on Han Tong's forehead. He hurriedly raised his arm to wipe it, looking particularly funny.
Yinzhi pursed his lips, a hint of disgust flashed across his eyes, but he didn't say anything hurtful. He just said,
"Then wait."
It was only at this time that the chief attendant understood why Han Tong had to wait until all the people had gone in before coming to inform his master.
If you think about it, the temperature is already getting a bit high. When you go out at noon, you have to put an ice basin in the carriage. If you go out later, you will suffer less.
Half an incense stick of time passed quickly, and Han Tong led the two downstairs and soon arrived at the carriage. He opened the door of the compartment and let the two in, then said,
"Your Highness, the train attendant will come and explain everything on this train to you later. I'll take my leave..."
Yinzhi looked around the box and didn't even turn his head when he heard the words.
"Go ahead."
Han Tong turned around and ran away as fast as he could, as if he had been pardoned.
He no longer dared to curry favor with Prince Zhi, as his temper was even more unpredictable than that of the Ninth Master.
Jiu Ye always smiles when he sees people, but he has never seen his expression soften since he met this person.
Yinzhi looked at the narrow box in front of him and was speechless for a moment.
Among the brothers, he was the one who was less demanding about the environment, but his carriage was much better than the current one.
There were only two benches in the carriage, and a small table in the middle with a pot of tea and a few plates of snacks on it.
The conditions are very simple.
Of course, if he goes on a long journey, he actually prefers to ride a horse.
The long-servant's face was not looking good either, but seeing that Yinzhi didn't say anything, he tactfully didn't say anything more, but started checking the carriage.
The palm-sized area was quickly cleaned up by the attendant.
He didn't notice anything wrong.
Yinzhi walked forward, opened the car window, and looked around the quiet platform.
Then he sat down expressionlessly.
Judging by the time, the train is about to leave.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, the train under his butt vibrated.
A rhythmic "chi chi" sound was heard outside, which soon turned into a "clang clang" sound.
Yinzhi watched the platform slowly move backwards, his face full of surprise.
This train is not bumpy at all!
