In order to prove the method in his heart, Zhu Hao immediately asked the little eunuch who was still adding kerosene: "This prince asks you, do you know the difference between the kerosene in this palace and the kerosene outside the palace?" ”

The little eunuch didn't expect the five princes to speak to him at all, so he shook his hand excitedly, knocked over the kerosene on the ground, and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to confess.

Zhu Hao did not blame the little eunuch for his mistake, but asked the little eunuch again about the difference between kerosene in the palace and kerosene outside the palace, although the little eunuch was full of question marks by Zhu Hao's question, but he still answered honestly: "Back to His Royal Highness, the kerosene in this palace will not produce thick smoke and pungent smell when burned, and the kerosene outside the palace is the opposite, once burned, it will not only produce thick black smoke, but also produce a pungent smell!" ”

Zhu Hao nodded when he heard this, the little eunuch's words made Zhu Hao confirm the idea in his heart, he waved his hand at the little eunuch to let the little eunuch retreat, and then couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and said to Gongsun Ce excitedly: "Gongsun, I have a way!" ”

Gongsun Ce hadn't figured it out at the moment, and Zhu Hao said that there was a way to refer to something, so he said with some doubts: "Weichen is stupid, please make it clear to His Highness!" ”

Zhu Hao saw that Gongsun Ce didn't even understand, a smug smile appeared on his face, and he said a little flutteringly: "Gongsun, the words of the imperial dining room just now to buy Luo Xiang made us uncertain whether the kerosene came from outside the palace. If you just extend the investigation outside the palace, once you go in the wrong direction, it will be a waste of time, but do you remember the strange things about Kunning Palace that Liu He, the deacon of Kunning Palace, said? Combined with what the prince's chamberlain said just now, the prince has basically been able to determine that the kerosene in this Kunning Palace is from outside the palace, and it is inseparable from the purchase of Luo Xiang in the imperial dining room! ”

After listening to Zhu Hao's words, Gongsun Ce first nodded, and then shook his head and said, "After all, this matter is a vain!" If that Liu He was sent by the queen and deliberately guided us to investigate in the wrong direction, then His Highness and the ministers would be fooled! ”

Zhu Hao nodded when he heard this: "What Gongsun said is extremely true, and this possibility is indeed not ruled out, so this prince must first make sure that Liu He is telling the truth, and then it is not too late for this prince to go out of the palace with you to investigate!" ”

When Gongsun Ce heard this, he once again said with a puzzled look on his face: "The minister is puzzled, how can His Highness prove that what Liu He said is true?" Please also make it clear to Your Highness! ”

Zhu Hao smiled mysteriously at Gongsun Ce and said, "Gongsun come here with your ears!" ”

When Gongsun Ce heard this, with a look of doubt, he bent down and put his ear close to Zhu Hao's mouth, and Zhu Hao whispered in Gongsun Ce's ear, saying this and that for a while.

When Zhu Hao finished speaking, Gongsun Ce straightened up and said with a contradictory look on his face: "Your Highness, it's not good like this, right?" ”

Zhu Hao smiled weirdly and said, "Gongsun, you have to use extraordinary means in extraordinary times!" ”

As if he was not convinced, Gongsun Ce continued to speak: "But Your Highness, the minister doesn't know who is beside His Highness and the minister...... Yes...... Can you complete Your Highness's plan? ”

Zhu Hao smiled mysteriously again: "Gongsun doesn't have to worry, this prince naturally knows who to send, this person will definitely be able to easily complete this prince's plan, Gongsun is waiting for the good news!" ”

After speaking, Zhu Hao personally walked to the door of the room and instructed the little eunuch who had just added kerosene to him: "You go to the Praetorian Guard to find their commander Xie Gang, and ask Xie Gang to inform Wei Xiaobao to come back to see this prince immediately!" When the little eunuch heard this, he did not dare to delay, so he immediately answered and ran out.

The reason why the little eunuch was not allowed to go directly to Kunning Palace to find Wei Xiaobao, but let the little eunuch go to find Wei Xiaobao through Xie Gang was because Wei Xiaobao monitored Kunning Palace, this kind of thing is of course the fewer people who know, the better, and not to mention that Wei Xiaobao, a gambler, is now accompanying Xie Gang to gamble money! So Zhu Hao turned a corner and asked Xie Gang to inform Wei Xiaobao.

After the little eunuch went out, about a stick of incense, Wei Xiaobao took one person and rushed into Zhu Hao's bedroom, and when he saw Zhu Hao, he immediately said with a hippie smile: "Slave Wei Xiaobao visited His Highness, His Highness finally remembered the slave, and the slave thought that His Highness had forgotten the slave!" ”

Seeing Wei Xiaobao playing poor with himself, Zhu Hao pretended to be angry and said: "Don't be smiling with this prince!" This prince asked you what was abnormal in Kunning Palace in the past two days? ”

Wei Xiaobao didn't know if Zhu Hao was really angry, or pretended, so he hurriedly put away the hippie smiling face, and said seriously: "Back to Your Highness, there is no abnormality in Kunning Palace in the past two days, and the servants are always watching, and they don't dare to relax at all!" ”

Zhu Hao snorted coldly when he heard this: "This prince sees that you have been gambling with Xie Gang day and night for the past two days, and you don't dare to relax for a moment, right?" ”

Wei Xiaobao was exposed by Zhu Hao on the spot, and said with an embarrassed smile on his face: "Although the slave has gambled with the eldest brother in the past two days, he has indeed not relaxed his surveillance of Kunning Palace!" As he spoke, he pointed to the man dressed as a Praetorian Guard kneeling next to him: "This is the sergeant of the Praetorian Guard who is responsible for the guard of Kunning Palace, when the slave is not here for the past two days, he is staring at Kunning Palace for the slave, His Highness can ask him if you don't believe it!" ”

Zhu Hao looked at the young man kneeling behind Wei Xiaobao, at this moment the young man was hanging his head, kneeling on the ground without saying a word, when Wei Xiaobao pointed to the young man, the young man spoke: "See Your Highness for the small time!" ”

That's right, this is Zhu Hao, with Gongsun Ce's full loyalty, the reward of one to five stars randomly summoned, summoned the one hundred and seven heroes of Liangshan, and the time has changed.

Zhu Hao looked at the two of them and said, "Don't kneel, get up and talk!" The two stood up, Zhu Hao saw Shi Qian's appearance, for Shi Qian's appearance, it is not the kind of thief eyebrows and rat eyes that Zhu Hao imagined, let alone a handsome and chic image, if you want to say the image of Shi Qian, just two words "ordinary", it is really too ordinary, it is the kind of person thrown into the crowd, so that you can never find which one is him.

Zhu Hao secretly said in his heart: "This thief ancestor, this kind of appearance, being a thief really has an innate advantage!" ”

For a person like Shi Qian, who is set to be full of loyalty, Zhu Hao didn't have any extra nonsense at all, and said directly: "Shi Qian, this prince has a tricky thing to do here now, I don't know if you want to?" ”

Shi Qian listened to Zhu Hao's words, and hurriedly knelt down again and bowed: "Thanks to His Highness, the small one will do his best to break his bones to repay His Highness's trust!" ”

Regarding Shi Qian's reaction, Zhu Hao nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good, although this matter is tricky, but you don't need to be crushed, this prince hopes that you can go to the treasury of Kunning Palace and bring back some of every barrel of kerosene to this prince, this prince is of great use!" You might do this for the prince? ”

After Shi Qian listened to Zhu Hao's words, he said with a confident smile on his face: "The little one doesn't dare to say anything else, just this little thing, Your Highness can rest assured that it will be handed over to the small one, and it won't take a quarter of an hour for the small one to get back what His Highness wants!" Please wait a while, Your Highness, and the little one will go back when he goes! As soon as the words fell, he walked out of Zhu Hao's room at this time, and the speed was staggering.

Zhu Hao secretly said in his heart: "Such a light skill, it is really a good performance, it seems that this person can not only be a thief, but may have other wonderful uses in the future!" ”

After Shi Qian left, Gongsun Ce stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, this is the person you said can complete the plan...... Yes...... Just? ”

Seeing Gongsun Ce reluctantly say the word talent from his mouth, Zhu Hao smiled slightly and said: "Gongsun, this prince knows that you are a well-educated person and does not want to be in the company of such people, but Gongsun Ke still remembers Meng Weijun, this rooster and dog thief, can save his life at critical moments, and those who specialize in art and have a skill can be called a talent, and Gongsun should not underestimate this person!" ”

Gongsun Ce's face was full of shame when he heard this: "Your Highness knows people like this, and the employment of people is even more unique, Gongsun admires it!" It is a blessing for a minister to be able to follow His Highness! ”

Zhu Hao was not moved by Gongsun Ce's compliments, but looked out of the door, and said with feeling: "I hope that the things that Shi Qian brought back can reflect Liu He's words, so that maybe the truth will not be far away!" If I had known that this simple fire case would be so complicated, this prince would definitely not let your grandson get involved, and in the end, he would have to put his own life on the line! ”

Gongsun Ce listened to Zhu Hao's words, and his moved body trembled slightly: "What did His Highness say, he can share worries and solve problems for His Highness, that is a matter within the minister's responsibility, as for the minister's net worth, his life has long been thrown away, life and death, even if the fire case cannot be found out in the end, the minister has to die, but he can get acquainted with His Highness, and the minister has no regrets about his death!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Hao stepped forward and patted Gongsun Ce's shoulder and said, "Gongsun, this prince knows your intentions, but this prince hopes that you can live well and help this prince do more things that are beneficial to the country, instead of dying unjustly in this fire case!" This prince believes that the time will definitely bring back good news! This prince will not let you die unjustly like this! ”

It didn't take long for Shi Qian to rush back, and it really didn't take a quarter of an hour to go back and forth, as he said at the same time.

After Shi Qian entered the room, he took out six small porcelain vases with a little excitement on his face, carefully placed them on the ground, and then bowed to Zhu Hao: "Shi Qian is fortunate not to be dishonored, and he brought back what His Highness wanted, and now he is returning to His Highness!" ”

Zhu Hao saw the six small porcelain bottles with kerosene on the ground, and he was also in a good mood, so he praised Shi Qian and said: "Good job!" In the future, you will follow this prince! This prince will not treat anyone who has a credit for this prince! Get up and speak! ”
