Zhou Zhi then thanked the emperor and the queen, and was about to leave. Speaking from the heart, Zhou Zhi was a little lonely at this time. I studied in the country, and I became the prince's companion, all of this can be described as smooth sailing, if the life can go on like this, it will be delicious. And his future can also be felt and seen.

But now it's different, on the surface, he took the initiative to resign from the prince's companionship, but Zhou Zhi knows very well that this is actually the true psychology of the emperor and the queen.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, it is not easy to mix around the emperor, even in the court, there is intrigue and deceit.

Zhou Zhi thought about this bungee jumping repeatedly before and after, and felt in a trance that someone was deliberately framing him. And the most direct person is Wu Jing. He and Wu Jing are destined not to pee into a pot.

No matter how dark the officialdom is, he has made up his mind to go all the way to the imperial examination, and will do something for the future of the Ming Dynasty, and make the lives of the people of the Ming Dynasty richer with his own experience and knowledge. Then I have to move forward and firmly go down this bumpy road.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly felt that Zhou Zhi left quietly like this, as if he was disrespectful to the Empress Dowager. The queen even remembered the two delicacies that Zhou Zhi made for her with acacia flowers in May, and after being drunk by the queen mother, she couldn't help but feel a little bad in her heart at this time.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed leisurely and said, "Zhou Zhi, August is the autumn season, I hope you will study hard in the future, and you will be able to pass the examination when the autumn is in the autumn." You have to remember, I am a meritocracy, I really hope that you can become an official as soon as possible! ”

He can only comfort and motivate Zhou Zhi like this. As for whether Zhou Zhi can succeed in the imperial examination in the end, that is Zhou Zhi's own business, and Emperor Hongzhi actually doesn't care much about it from the bottom of his heart.

Zhou Zhi naturally expressed his gratitude to the emperor again, and then turned around and prepared to retreat outside the palace.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao walked in in a hurry, Zhou Zhi and him almost collided together, Zhu Houzhao said repeatedly, "Zhou Zhi Xiucai, just now you and your father and mother have heard what the prince said, you don't accompany the prince to study, that's a big loss for the prince!"

Zhou Zhi, this prince and his father have the same entrustment to you, take the Jinshi exam as soon as possible! ”

After speaking, he even patted Zhou Zhi's shoulder very intimately.

Zhou Zhi hurriedly wanted to kneel down to worship the prince, but the prince stopped him, bit Zhou Zhi's ear and said, "Zhou Zhi Xiucai, don't forget, a few days ago, you promised this prince to give this prince a fresh, interesting and interesting thing, but this prince is in a hurry." ”

At this time, Zhu Houzhao was still thinking about how to play, this prince was really weird. Zhou Zhi nodded lightly, and agreed to the prince again.

Prince Zhu Houzhao is just fun, in fact, he is still very good to himself. However, it takes a lot of thought to come up with what kind of fun things to come up with. And Zhou Zhi also clearly realized that no matter what interesting things he came up with, he couldn't tell the prince now.

At this time, it is a critical moment, and I don't know how much right and wrong I have to cause when my new and interesting things come out. The top priority at the moment is to take part in the Autumn Entrance Examination as soon as possible, so that he can pass the Jinshi Examination in next year's Spring Examination and the Palace Examination, and his status can be improved. At that time, he may not be meat on the chopping block to those who have ulterior motives and want to harm him.

Zhu Houzhao was followed by Wei Bin, Gao Feng, Qiu Ju and Zhang Yong. Zhang Yong saw that Zhou Zhi was safe and sound, and he was completely relieved.

You must know that the reason why Kou Peihan was able to quickly get the news that Zhou Zhi was arrested by Wu Jing was because Zhang Yong secretly told him.

The emperor and the queen first asked the crown prince Zhu Houzhao, and then they were angry on the spot, saying that they were going to cut Zhou Zhi and Liu Jin.

Zhang Yong nodded quietly at Zhou Zhi, which was regarded as a greeting. Don't look at it, this is just a light nod, but Zhou Zhi knows that Brother Zhang Yong's endless concern for him is hidden here.

Wei Bin glanced at Zhou Zhi coldly and didn't say a word.

Wei Bin used to be Li Guang's person, and he admired Li Guang very much. But Li Guang suddenly fell, and all this Wei Bin naturally remembered Zhou Zhi, and he hated Zhou Zhi very much, and he wanted to kill him as soon as possible.

He knew that Zhou Zhi was smart and very human, so he thought of using Liu Jin skillfully and let Liu Jin buy the rubber rope from a Persian merchant. The rubber rope is used for bungee jumping, what is the way to play, let Zhou Zhi explain.

Wu Jing was originally worried that Zhou Zhi didn't know what bungee jumping was. But what surprised him was that Zhou Zhi actually knew, and he also played it himself, and personally performed it for the prince to see. This is more in line with Wei Bin's thoughts.

Wei Bin has been following the crown prince Zhu Houzhao for some time, and he naturally knows Zhu Houzhao's temperament very well. Zhu Houzhao is actually no different from those gentlemen, or even worse than them. Naturally, he is interested in new and exciting ways to play.

That's fine, at that time, the prince didn't play bungee jumping under the obstruction of Zhou Zhi and Liu Jin, but according to Zhu Houzhao's temperament, he definitely wanted to play.

However, Zhu Houzhao endured it for so long before playing bungee jumping, which still surprised Wei Bin.

Anyway, Prince Zhu Houzhao ended up bungee jumping. Bungee jumping is extremely dangerous, how can the emperor and queen not worry about the prince. And the cause and fault of all this will inevitably be pushed to Zhou Zhi and Liu Jin.

Wei Bin was very satisfied with the development of the matter, and the emperor immediately arrested Liu Jin and said that he would punish him. knocked on Wu Jing's side and continued to make it bad, the emperor actually let Wu Jing arrest Zhou Zhi and handed over the right to dispose of Zhou Zhi to Wu Jing.

This strategy of killing two birds with one stone can be described as inconspicuous, Wei Bin is very deep, and no one can detect it.

Just when Wei Bin was complacent about the success of his plan and finally got rid of Liu Jin and Zhou Zhi, there was a sudden change on Wu Jing's side, and the Empress Dowager came forward to save Zhou Zhi. And after Zhu Houzhao heard that the Empress Dowager rescued Zhou Zhi, although he was grounded, he also found a way to immediately send someone to find the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager felt sorry for her great-grandson, and felt that Zhu Houzhao had no mistakes, and even felt that Zhu Houzhao's bungee jumping was a manifestation of bravery. So she just said it lightly, and Zhu Houzhao didn't have to be grounded anymore.

Everything that seemed to be about to succeed was destroyed in an instant. Wei Bin's heart seemed to have fallen from a nine-story platform into a bottomless abyss, shattered.

He wanted to cry without tears.

He clearly knew that after this time, if he wanted to clean up Zhou Zhi and Liu Jin, there would not be so many opportunities. After all, Zhou Zhi and Liu Jin are both scheming people. They will definitely take precautions, especially Zhou Zhi, who may choose to avoid it from afar.

Zhou Zhi's teacher is Yang Yiqing, and it seems that the old Wang Shu also likes him very much. Zhou Zhi is far away, and he can't find Zhou Zhi's handle, how can he still clean up Zhou Zhi?

Alas!

Wei Bin's eyes were blank, and he was stunned.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao was extremely excited, and without waiting for the emperor and queen to ask, Zhu Houzhao said, "Father and mother, the child is not satisfied with the permission of the grandmother." ”

It's the Queen Mother again, I really don't know what happened to the Queen Mother, how she suddenly took care of a lot of things.

It may have something to do with her stepdaughter Kou Peihan!

The emperor and queen shook their heads helplessly. But Zhu Houzhao didn't wait for them to speak, so he said again, "Since Zhou Zhi is acquitted, then Liu Jin is not at fault." The father and mother should quickly issue an order to let Liu Jin out, the child can't live without Liu Jin for a day. ”

I have to say that what Zhu Houzhao said is very reasonable.

The emperor and queen were speechless, so they could only agree to release Liu Jin.

Wei Bin, Wu Jing, Guo Liang and other long-planned assassinations were dissolved in this way.
