"Zhisheng, where did you go in such a hurry?" The words were very light and light, but they suddenly shocked Lin Zhisheng, who had just pushed open the door and entered his bedroom.

Lin Zhisheng's body stiffened slightly and turned to the left of the door, behind a red bookcase placed under the wall, Zhu Zimo was sitting on the chair behind him, and Zhu Zimo was playing with a token in his hand.

"What? Don't recognize this thing? Do you want me to sue you? Seeing that Lin Zhisheng was just looking at him stunned, the corners of Zhu Zimo's mouth hooked up a sneer, and his voice instantly changed from light just now to cold.

"Zhisheng doesn't know what the second young master means by this, and Zhisheng doesn't know the object in the second young master's hand." Although he had an intuition that Zhu Zimo might have known about it, Lin Zhisheng still thought he was smart and chose not to admit it.

The sneer was even worse, Zhu Zimo threw the token in his hand on the bookcase in front of him, leaned back on the chair, and looked leisurely.

Looking at Lin Zhisheng, Zhu Zimo's words were a little ethereal: "In the tenth year of Yuanguang, I went to Pingyang, and the Zhu family tree was read by someone; In the second year of Kaiping, I went to Zouyang, and the secrets of the Zhu family's family business were stolen; In the third year of Kaiping, I went to Xudu, and all the inside and outside of the Korean courtyard were searched; Kaiping four years...... In the seventh year of Kaiping, that is, today, I was talking to someone in the study of the Korean Academy, but someone was eavesdropping outside the study! ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Zimo deliberately stopped and didn't continue, but a pair of good-looking Danfeng eyes narrowed and stood motionless by the door, but his face began to become a little gray.

After a long time, Lin Zhisheng slowly spoke, and his feelings at the moment could not be heard in his words: "Zhisheng doesn't understand what the second young master is talking about. ”

Zhu Zimo squinted at a place behind Lin Zhisheng without a trace, and said lightly: "I won't say much about some other small things that have happened in the past ten years, just the few things I just said...... Zhisheng, I really want to know who did it, especially who is eavesdropping outside my study today. ”

"Zhisheng really doesn't know what the second young master is talking about, Zhisheng thinks that if the second young master wants to know who did those things, he should go and interrogate the people in the mansion." Although Lin Zhisheng was panicked in his heart, he still pretended to be calm on his face, and tried his best to answer in an indifferent tone.

"Zhisheng, since my grandfather passed away, you have been by my side for ten years, and you may not have understood my temper before, but you should be clear about what happened in the house today. Don't you think it's boring to be wasting words with me here and now? Looking at Lin Zhisheng, Zhu Zimo said emotionless words in a calm tone.

Lin Zhisheng gritted his teeth and frowned at Zhu Zimo, who was sitting on the chair behind the bookcase, looking very elegant, until this moment he still didn't understand where he showed his feet, so that Zhu Zimo found out what he had done secretly in the past eight years.

Seeing that Lin Zhisheng no longer answered, Zhu Zimo also felt that there was no need to waste words with Lin Zhisheng anymore, so he directly made his words clear: "Ten years ago, a month after my grandfather's funeral, Zhu Hui sent me to Jiangnan to check the Zhu family's industry in Jiangnan. However, when you returned to the capital, you encountered a rogue who was hunted down by the imperial court, and just when you were almost killed, a young man suddenly appeared and saved your life, and after that, you began to do things for that young man. Zhisheng, you say...... Am I right? ”

Regarding the events of ten years ago, although it may not be so clear to ordinary people, the Xuanwu subordinates taught by Zhu Zimo are not only the Cangdie Assassin Group that specializes in assassination, but also the Cangdie Intelligence Network, which specializes in intelligence investigation.

As long as Zhu Zimo wanted to, even if it was eight hundred years ago, he could turn it out, not to mention that it was only ten years away.

Since leaving Qinshan, Zhu Zimo thought that he would not have any intersection with that person again, and even if he did, it would be until the day he fulfilled his mission.

He had long known that the conversation with the master when he was in Qinshan was heard by him and was a threat to him after all, but he naively thought that that person would always take care of the master and his old man and would not do anything to him.

However, what Zhu Zimo didn't expect was that person was so impatient, he had buried a fine work by his side ten years ago, and he was also the biological brother of the person he trusted the most...... Should he be too careless or was the man too shrewd?

Thinking of this, Zhu Zimo couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

If the fine work that was arranged by Zhu Zimo's side was someone else, he must have solved that person mercilessly, and would never let a fine work stay by his side for ten years. It's just that that person still knows him too well, so he led today's qiē.

Hearing Zhu Zimo say this, Lin Zhisheng finally couldn't pretend to be calm anymore, so he almost jumped up and shouted at Zhu Zimo: "How do you know!" ”

Zhu Zimo coldly hooked the corners of his mouth, and snorted coldly, as if muttering: "Sure enough, it's right." ”

After a pause, Zhu Zimo reached out again and pinched the wooden token on the bookcase and played with it for a while before he said lightly: "This token is unique to him, and it is not uncommon for the Nine Kingdoms to be planted in various countries, but he is the only one who uses the token." ”

Although the token in his hand was not engraved with any words or patterns representing identity, Zhu Zimo knew that only one person could be found in the Nine Kingdoms in this practice of identifying people with tokens.

The man was shrewd enough but funny enough to make himself different in everything.

It used to be the same when I was in Qinshan.

I still remember that early that morning, the master asked the three of them to set up a horse in the open field, and he was the only one who wanted to run to the plum blossom pile to set up a horse step, but the direct result was that the master did not give him breakfast that morning.

Thinking of the past in Qinshan, the corners of Zhu Zimo's mouth unconsciously curved a little, but it disappeared in an instant, making people feel that the arc of the smile just now was just an illusion.

No matter what happened before, that person and him, after that day, will never go back to the past.

Looking at Lin Zhisheng, Zhu Zimo said coldly: "Zhisheng, do you know what you are wrong with?" ”

Lin Zhisheng stared at the token in Zhu Zimo's hand for a while, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a long time, Lin Zhisheng finally just stubbornly spit out a sentence: "I'm not wrong!" I just chose my dutiful master! ”

"Oh? Faithful ...... The host? Zhu Zimo's words were extremely light, but they made Lin Zhisheng suddenly feel extremely cold.

Still playing with the token, Zhu Zimo didn't care about Lin Zhisheng's reaction, but just continued: "First, you shouldn't be loyal to others but betray your real master because someone else saved your life, this is disloyalty; Second, you should not hold a grudge against your true master for the sake of someone who deliberately set up a situation to save your life, which is unkind; Third, you should not harm your own brother for the sake of an outsider, this is unjust. With these three points alone, do you still think you're not wrong? ”

"You say that I am unfaithful and unkind, I admit it, but you can't say that I am unjust, I have never designed my brother, let alone harm him!" Hearing Zhu Zimo's conviction of him, Lin Zhisheng almost didn't jump up.

Yes, he betrayed Zhu Zimo, he said that he was disloyal and unkind, and he had nothing to say, but he couldn't say that he was unjust! Even if he is no longer human, he will never harm the brother who will never leave him at all times, the only relative in this world for him!

Zhu Zimo didn't mean to argue with Lin Zhisheng, but just spit out a sentence without being salty: "That's just your self-righteousness." ”

Indeed, Lin Zhisheng is too young, and the ups and downs he has experienced are too small and too few, so in his cognition, he has always been the only one who designs according to that person's orders, but Lin Zhisheng doesn't know that while he is listening to that person's words to design Zhu Zimo, he is actually indirectly designing his own brother Lin Zhiwu.

On that day ten years ago, Lin Zhiwu said that he would be loyal to Zhu Zimo for the rest of his life and would never betray.

Before today, if Zhu Zimo, who was still wearing a layer of "cowardly" disguise, encountered any trouble or danger in front of outsiders, the only one who could "solve" Zhu Zimo was Lin Zhiwu, who had been by Zhu Zimo's side.

Zhu Zimo still clearly remembers that day three years ago, because he can't forget it.

Three years ago, Zhu Zimo was sent by Zhu Hui to Zouyang, and the carriage they were in in early that morning was stopped by a group of bandits less than a hundred miles outside Kyoto.

However, Zhu Zimo knew that the gang of bandits in front of him was not an ordinary bandit, not only because it was near Kyoto and at the foot of the Son of Heaven that there could be no bandits, but also because they all looked very well-trained, and it was impossible for people who were not carefully trained to have such a good tacit understanding.

That day, because there were more than a dozen people accompanying him, Zhu Zimo couldn't show his true skills, so he could only pretend to hide while solving those people dressed as bandits without a trace.

But when Zhu Zimo pretended to dodge but actually fought, a short arrow shot at Zhu Zimo from behind Zhu Zimo.

Zhu Zimo didn't notice it for a while, and when Zhu Zimo noticed it, the short arrow had already been nailed to Lin Zhiwu's left shoulder, who was back to back with him.

Looking at the direction of the arrow, Zhu Zimo probably guessed that the other party didn't want to take his life.

Although the other party did not want to take his life, Zhu Zimo still blamed himself for Lin Zhiwu's behavior of blocking arrows with his body.

Afterwards, because Lin Zhiwu said that he didn't want his younger brother Lin Zhisheng to worry, Zhu Zimo did not mention Lin Zhiwu's injury to anyone after returning to Zhu's Mansion in Xuanping after completing Zou Yang's affairs, and strictly ordered those who accompanied him not to mention anything that day, otherwise they would all be expelled from Zhu's Mansion.
