Chapter 137, His Royal Highness the Missing Prince

Ye Qianhu looked at him from head to toe again and said, "Do you know why Liang Tong and I treat you differently?" ”

"I don't know, boy."

"Because your Father is a saving grace to me." Ye Qianhu was almost like a sigh.

"Huh?" Shen Mu exclaimed in surprise, pretending to be a little surprised and looked up at Ye Qianhu.

In fact, long before this Ye Qianhu gave the answer, he had all kinds of guesses.

The most direct guess is that Shen's father's past must have some kind of relationship with Jinyiwei.

It's just that I didn't expect that this kind of origin turned out to be Shen's father's life-saving grace to Ye Qianhu.

Now that I think about it, the letter that Shen's father asked Uncle Liu to send to Nanjing City that day was most likely delivered to Ye Qianhu.

Liang Baihu will appear in Taiping County so soon.

When he met him who visited Shen's father privately in prison, he did not make a big official appearance, and he was also qualified to follow Xia to inspect and arrest them to investigate the case.

Later, he showed his importance to himself in front of Han Lin and Xiao Qi everywhere.

Now, he and Ye Qianhu met for the first time, and what was the purpose of this relationship at this time?

Is it to tell him that the other party is a person who knows how to repay his kindness?

Or warn him that he can't rely on his father's affection to do whatever he wants in Jinyiwei?

"What happened back then, it's not a good memory, don't talk about it, but how do I look at it now, this kid turned out to be a multi-hearted master, this must be guessing in my heart the purpose of my outspoken words!"

Ye Qianhu looked at Shen Mu again, and looked at Liang Baihu with a smile on his face.

"It's human nature that this kid thinks a lot, don't adults appreciate this kid's heart? It's too hearty, it proves that you think a lot, you can think about things, don't we Jinyiwei need such juniors? Liang Baihu then said with a smile.

When Shen Mu heard this, there was no big fluctuation in his heart, he had long known that Jiang was still old and spicy.

No matter what Ye Qianhu's background is, if he can get mixed into the position of Jinyi Wei Qianhu, he is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp.

was directly pierced by the other party so straightforwardly, although he was a little surprised, but he still pretended to have a shy expression on his face after his mind was pierced: "What is the kid thinking in his heart, how can he hide it from the adult, the adult really knows everything." ”

"Well, the reason why I tell you the origin of my father and me is to tell you that although you and I are meeting for the first time, although our identities and statuses are different, in my heart, you are also my trusted son and nephew, and we don't have to see each other too much."

"It's the kid who climbs the adult." Shen Mu said respectfully again, and his face showed gratitude.

In fact, he did not let his guard down in his heart, and said that the relationship between people should be cultivated.

This is true of blood ties, let alone the feelings between people who are not related by blood.

If you don't have deep feelings for each other, you can't talk about trust, let alone see each other.

Before this, the original owner should have never seen this Ye Qianhu, let alone have any feelings with this Ye Qianhu.

As for Shen's father's life-saving grace?

With Ye Qianhu's ability, it can be repaid in other ways, and it doesn't necessarily have to be manifested in his closeness.

Normal people know that the more affinity the superior sometimes shows to the inferior, the more the relationship is pulled, it does not mean that the other party really appreciates you as a person, and the fact is often that the other party has something to ask for the inferior.

But what is there on him Shen Mu that is worthy of a powerful figure like Ye Qianhu?

Thinking about it again, when he was still in Jixi County, Liang Baihu specially showed him some information about the palace in the capital, and personally asked him what he thought of the crown prince of the current dynasty, was it related to the prince of the current dynasty?

Can his little Jinyi guard status, what connection can he have with the crown prince of the dynasty?

The lives of the two are clearly not on the same level.

Could it be that he was sent to the palace as a little eunuch?

So that he can be by the side of the crown prince of the dynasty?

Thinking of this, he felt a chill in his body.

But then he vetoed this idea, if Ye Qianhu really remembered Shen's father's life-saving grace, then he would never let the Shen family's incense alone enter the palace as a little eunuch.

In that case, it will not be revenge but revenge.

But what else is related to the crown prince of the dynasty?

Has he left room to play?

Just when his mind was floating, he heard Ye Qianhu speak again: "Do you know who took your name?" ”

When he heard this, he hurriedly came back to his senses and said, "The kid doesn't know. ”

He really didn't know who chose the name for the original owner, but Ye Qianhu deliberately brought up this topic at this time, could it be that his name was still related to Ye Qianhu.

Sure enough, Ye Qianhu quickly gave his answer: "It was taken by Ben Qianhu." ”

"The kid never thought that his name would be related to the Lord of the Thousand Households, and the boy is grateful to the Lord of the Thousand Households for the grace of the name." Shen Mu saluted Ye Qianhu again.

"Then do you know what this name means when this thousand households choose this name for you?"

"This ...... The kid doesn't know. ”

"This thousand households named you Mu, which means that your future life may be bathed in the emperor's grace for the rest of your life, as long as you are loyal to the emperor and the Ming Dynasty, your life's glory and wealth will be indispensable, now understand?"

"Kid understood."

Shen Mu replied respectfully on the surface, but in fact, he also noticed the surprise on Liang Baihu's face at the moment.

It seems that Liang Baihu is not an insider about the origin of Shen Mu's name.

It also further shows that the relationship between Shen's father and Ye Qianhu may be more intimate.

As the meaning of the original owner's name is as Ye Qianhu said, does it mean that after the original owner was born, Ye Qianhu planned to let the original owner join Jinyiwei in the future?

After all, the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, with a special identity and power, and for non-scholars, being able to become a Jinyiwei can really be regarded as bathing in the emperor's grace.

But he still didn't understand, what did Ye Qianhu tell him about these things at this time?

Let him be grateful to him?

Could it be that he is still afraid of betraying Jinyiwei in the future?

What did you do to the detriment of Jinyiwei?

But at this time, it was the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and the world was relatively stable, and he would not participate in the imperial examination.

Naturally, he will not become a civil official and be hostile to Jinyiwei, his purpose is just to meet the requirements of the "punishment system for corrupt officials" as soon as possible, accumulate enough prestige points, and then win the ultimate welfare, return to his previous life, and use his golden finger to let his parents escape.

Start a new life, instead of staying in this era, making trouble, and being the king.

"But if you really enjoy the emperor's grace, how difficult it is, if you can only be a low-level military attache of the Jinyi Guard in your life, I'm afraid that the current saint will never know who you are?

Therefore, everything must pay attention to an opportunity and a chance.

There is an opportunity in front of you now, if you can seize this opportunity, then in the future, you will be prosperous and rich, and you will be able to glorify your ancestors. ”

Look at!

The drama meat is finally up.

When he heard the word chance, he felt that it must not be a good thing.

Can he not listen? Can he refuse?

No.

Since you can't, you can only take it first.

So, he could only raise his head and say firmly: "Please also make it clear to your lordship." ”

Liang Baihu got up at this time and said, "My lord, I'm waiting outside the door." ”

Ye Qianhu nodded.

Seeing this, Shen Mu felt more and more that what Ye Qianhu said was extraordinary, and this Liang Baihu probably went out not to avoid suspicion, but to guard the wind outside the door to prevent someone from eavesdropping.

Wait for Liang Baihu to walk out of the door and cover the door.

Ye Qianhu beckoned and motioned for him to step forward.

He had no choice but to step forward and walk to the other party's side, and he heard Ye Qianhu whisper: "Just because Ben Qianhu regards your kid as his own, there is a particularly secret thing to inform you now, just five days ago, Ben Qianhu got the news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the palace was missing!" ”

"Huh? How so? Shen Mu saw Ye Qianhu's cautious appearance, knowing that what the other party said must be extraordinary, but he didn't expect that it would be such news, and he was really surprised at this time.

Regarding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Zhu Houzhao, he should be just a little pot friend who is a little over ten years old now.

But because the other party is the only seedling of Emperor Hongzhi of the current dynasty, there should be a lot of people around him on weekdays, and many of them should be specifically to protect his safety, how could this little pot friend disappear from the heavily guarded palace?

He desperately searched his mind for some relevant information about this highness.

But unfortunately, he knows very little, and he really doesn't know if the crown prince has disappeared in history.

Even if he has disappeared, he should be in danger and has been found, otherwise there will be no succession to the emperor in the future.

"We all know the importance of His Royal Highness the Prince, in order to protect the safety of His Royal Highness the Prince, the news of His Royal Highness the Prince's disappearance is only known to a few people in Jinyiwei and Dongchang." Ye Qianhu continued.

"Is there any other news from Jinyiwei and Dongchang in the capital, whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was kidnapped by bandits, or?" Shen Mu had no choice but to continue to ask.

"Judging from the news from the capital, it is extremely unlikely that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be abducted, and when the prince disappeared that day, there was no major movement in the palace."

"What do you mean, could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left the palace by himself?"

Although he didn't know if the prince had disappeared, he seemed to be more active, and he liked to pay private interviews with microservices, and later went to Jiangnan after succeeding to the throne, and he also met a girl named Li Fengjie.

It seems that he has been to Saibei, self-proclaimed general, and has fought Yunyun, but he is not a peaceful lord anyway.

Since the other party is not at ease when he grows up, when he was a child, was he also a bear child?

It is not uncommon for a bear child to want to leave the cage of the palace and see the outside world.

"There is such a possibility, according to Jinyiwei's news, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not like those princes to attend classes, but he is His Royal Highness the Prince, and some homework must be learned. Perhaps he was overwhelmed by the homework of the masters, so he thought of slipping out of the palace.

But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has lived in the palace since he was a child, and his clothing, food, housing and transportation are taken care of, who knows that the world outside is sinister, and he doesn't know that he has a few guards with him, if there is a case, this Ming Dynasty ......" Ye Qianhu did not continue.

But Shen Mu understood his unfinished words.

If this crown prince really had an accident, then history would probably have to be rewritten, who let Emperor Hongzhi have only one wife and a son?

What if this son is gone, if there is no more son?

Who should inherit the Ming Dynasty?

Who said that the descendants of the Zhu family have long been flourishing after so many generations, and it is not difficult to find a few heirs from them.

But because there are too many heirs, it will be easy to cause turmoil in the court and the world.

Not to mention, every emperor wants his own son to be the next emperor, instead of choosing an emotionless nephew to cultivate.

However, at this point in the topic, he basically understood that Ye Qianhu told him what the purpose of this kind of thing was, it must be related to His Royal Highness the crown prince.

So, he had no choice but to continue: "What does the adult mean, let the kid go to the capital? ”

"You don't have to go to the capital, three days ago, the commander of the Jinyi Guard sent a secret letter to Ben Qianhu, saying that they were looking for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince all the way, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very likely to come to Nanjing.

And the day before yesterday, the Jinyi guard spies under our Beicheng Thousand Households also sent some news, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very likely to have entered Nanjing City. ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived in Nanjing City?"

"Exactly, but I don't know where he is now? The problem now is that the disappearance of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so far, there will be no more than five people in Nanjing City who have learned the news.

If we Jinyiwei go out and search everywhere, the target is too big, and it is very likely to attract the attention of people with hearts. ”

"What do you mean by that, let the little one secretly think about finding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

If he said that he was very wary of Ye Qianhu before, he didn't understand the other party's purpose, and he was afraid that the other party asked him to do other hidden things.

This kind of secret thing, whether it is done or not, will have endless troubles.

But now that he learned that he was asked to find the crown prince, he understood that maybe as Ye Qianhu said, he really regarded him as a nephew, and this matter was really an opportunity.

If Zhu Houzhao really came to Nanjing, if he could really find Zhu Houzhao, this credit would not only help him walk on the road to Qingyun, but also have the opportunity to brush up his goodwill in front of the future emperor.

"That's right, now, Ben Qianhu doesn't have much clue about the prince's affairs, and your performance in Taiping County and Jixi County, whether it is character and ability, makes me feel at ease, and I will hand over the burden of finding someone to you now. If you need something to work with, you can say it bluntly.

However, this matter must be kept secret, after all, there are many descendants of the Zhu family in this world, even those thieves like the Maitreya Sect and the White Lotus Sect let them get the news of the prince's disappearance, I am afraid they will not miss the opportunity to make waves.

Another reason why you were chosen is that you are a completely fresh face in Nanjing City and Jinyiwei, and you will not attract too much attention.

Even if the credit for finding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the end does not fall on us, we must not go wrong in other aspects. ”

"The boy understands that he must do his best to make a plan to find the prince as soon as possible, so that the adults can see it."
