Chapter 42: Empathy
Lu Song has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, he is burly, his temples are bulging high, and he is very good at a glance. His eyes were full of vigilance, if it weren't for Zhu Hao's mention of his son, he would never have ventured to the door.
The people in Xingwangfu all know that Zhu Hao is from the Zhu family of Jinyiwei, and the head of the palace, Shi Yuan Zonggao, ordered to strictly guard against Zhu Hao.
"Lu Dianzhan, I'm ashamed, I've been in Xingwangfu for five days, but in these five days, I haven't even entered the door of the inner courtyard of the palace, and I'm being targeted like a thief, trapped here every day, which is no different from being in prison...... Can Lu Dianzhan understand my feelings? Zhu Hao's tone of voice was not at all like a seven-year-old child.
Lu Song was silent.
Why do you want others to understand your feelings?
"Lu Dianzhan's recent situation should be similar to mine."
Zhu Hao's next words made Lu Song's heart ring.
Lu Song frowned and said, "Young Master Zhu, I heard that you are from the Jinyi Wei Zhu family, what is the purpose of you coming to the palace?" ”
Is this to force Zhu Hao to confess his "crime"?
Of course, Zhu Hao can't do what Lu Song wants, there are some things he can't be sure of, even if Lu Song really has dealings with Lin Baihu, what if Zhu Youqi also knows, or did he instruct Lu Song to be a double agent?
"Lu Dianzhan, I saw a person today, surnamed Lin, he asked me a lot of words, and he hurriedly went out after he was over, do you know about it?"
Zhu Hao grasped the rhythm of the conversation.
After hearing this, Lu Song's face changed greatly, and his eyes were cloudy when he looked at Zhu Hao...... didn't care about using his adult identity to deceive Zhu Hao, but he fell into the pit first.
Zhu Hao said: "I'm ashamed, I didn't know about it, it turned out that I was with Jing Gongzi, and Ling Lang as the palace's companion, he didn't know, through my story, he would definitely think of some things and find someone to verify." Thankfully, I found out in time and didn't say anything more. ”
Lu Song's hand was already pressed on the hilt of the knife, his eyes were fierce, and he would kill someone if he didn't agree with him.
Zhu Hao's eyes simply glanced at it, and he knew the current situation, he had to stabilize the scene before Lu Songgou jumped off the wall.
"Lu Dianzhan relax, your identity in the palace is not even known to the Zhu family at present, and besides, we have the same purpose, there is no need to betray you...... I didn't tell my family about my conjectures, but I have recorded the relevant situation, mainly in case I encounter an accident in the palace, and then my family will naturally find out what I have written......"
When Lu Song heard this, he stared at Zhu Hao, obviously not believing that this was a means that a child could have.
Zhu Hao said: "Last night, Jianmao Hao discussed with others to secretly harm me, and Lu Dianzhan took action today and taught them a lesson, so I think Lu Dianzhan still wants to complete the task and get out of the sea of suffering as soon as possible, right?" ”
This was just Zhu Hao's temptation, but Lu Song admitted calmly: "It was I who exposed their unclean hands and feet, but I didn't expect to catch evidence during the search, which can be regarded as a coincidence." ”
In this way, it is equivalent to both sides spreading everything out.
Lu Songzhen is the fine work of Jinyi Wei in Xingwangfu.
At present, Lu Song's situation is much more dangerous than Zhu Hao, not only to do things for the imperial court, but also afraid that the imperial court will expose his identity, and more importantly, he has now won the trust of the Xingwang Mansion and wants to get out of the control of Jinyiwei......
Understanding Lu Song's contradictory psychology, Zhu Hao advanced and retreated more moderately.
"Lu Dianzhan, why don't you and I sit down and talk in detail, there is a bit of pie here, let's enjoy it together?"
……
……
The elder and the young sat down.
There are guards against each other, Lu Song may have killed before, but Zhu Hao judged that this person is full of poetry and books, and has never been on the battlefield, and if he reads too much, he will have the pedantry and cowardice of a scholar.
Maybe Lu Song didn't think about doing anything for Jinyiwei after his father's death, but unfortunately he was found by his boss after hiding for many years, and he had to be wronged.
"Lu Dianzhan, now it seems that the imperial court has no intention of embarrassing the palace for the time being, as long as we can bring the information out on time, especially when it comes to the matter of the little prince, the imperial court will not embarrass us."
Zhu Hao took the lead in opening the conversation box and showed his sincerity, "But for me, the current situation is still a little dangerous. ”
Lu Song picked up a piece of pie, and was about to stuff it in his mouth, when he heard the words, he put it down: "This is a place of right and wrong, you are from the Zhu family of Jinyi Wei, and the Xingwang Mansion has already taken precautions, so let's leave." ”
This is to tell Zhu Hao, don't struggle, your origin has been investigated clearly, you are different from me, I can hide my identity, are you just waiting to be eradicated?
Zhu Hao said: "But...... I'm not reconciled! Once I leave the Xingwang Mansion, I will be imprisoned by the family, and I will not have the opportunity to study and learn in the future, or even practice martial arts...... Entering the Xingwang Mansion is my last way out. ”
"Huh!?"
Lu Song looked at Zhu Hao with an incredulous gaze.
Is the internal turmoil in your Zhu family so serious?
Aren't you kidding me?
"Actually, before I entered the palace, I had already had contacts with the little prince and the little princess, so I can be regarded as like-minded." Zhu Hao once again said a piece of news that made Lu Song unbelievable.
Lu Song Huoran stood up and lost his voice: "This ...... How is this possible? ”
Zhu Hao said: "They call themselves Zhu San, Zhu Si, the older one, I think it is the sister of the little prince, about eight or nine years old, I met when I sold rabbits to her...... As for Zhu Si, he is about the same age as me, so he should be the little prince...... I'm right, right? ”
"Huh?"
Lu Song was dumbfounded.
His shock was enough to show that in fact, he had known the real situation in the palace for a long time, and Zhu Hao estimated that Lu Song had not informed Lin Baihu of such important information at all.
"Lu Dianzhan can rest assured, I just made a record of these things and did not report them...... If you inquire about it, you will know that my mother was bullied by my grandmother, and the family is always pinch us, and I entered the palace more to win the opportunity to get ahead for myself, and what I do for the Zhu family and the court is not as important as planning for my future. ”
Zhu Hao said frankly: "Your Majesty has no children today...... Lu Dianzhan, you have been in the palace for many years, and your wife is still the little prince's nurse, and you have always avoided interacting with people in the court, thinking that you have personal and family future and destiny considerations...... You understand what I'm talking about, right? ”
Lu Song was still thinking about whether to kill the kid in front of him who had learned too many secrets, so as to prevent the affairs of the palace and his own affairs from being known by Lin Baihu or the Zhu family.
After listening to Zhu Hao's words, he realized that Zhu Hao was really not an ordinary person, and he knew everything about the situation in the palace, which was a little incredible for a while.
"What are you talking about? Young Master Zhu, there are some things that you can't talk nonsense. ”
Lu Song's brows furrowed, and his gaze at Zhu Hao revealed a hint of threat.
Zhu Hao smiled and said, "Then I didn't say it, but I still think that staying in the palace is much better than going back to the Zhu family...... As Lu Dianzheng thought, staying in the palace to plan for the future is not much better than going back to Jinyiwei to be a nobody? ”
Zhu Hao's words just poked Lu Song's soft underbelly.
Jin Yiwei represents the imperial court.
But even if he does his best to do things for Jinyiwei and makes great contributions, at most Lu Song will inherit his father's position as the general banner, and he may find a hundred households in the future, and it will be difficult to be a deputy thousand households, let alone a thousand households of Jinyiwei.
Can stay in Xingwangfu, there is a great possibility of making a contribution from the dragon in the future, his wife is the nurse of the little prince, and now his son has come to the son of the world to be a companion, and he is still a pawn in Xingwangfu......
"We have the same thoughts, we all stay in Xingwangfu, so if there is anything that harms the palace, we have to keep it a secret if we don't tell the outside...... You think the same way as me, don't you? Zhu Hao's face was eager.
Lu Song hesitated for a long time, but finally nodded, revealing his true thoughts in front of a child.
was accurately explained by a child about the current situation, and it also aroused empathy, so he felt that Zhu Hao's words could be trusted.
"Lu Dianzhan, since we have the same purpose, we shouldn't guard against each other, help each other in the future, you help me to be a companion to the little prince, and I will help you hide the identity information of you and your family, if the little prince can achieve it in the future...... Great cause, we may be able to rise to the top, it's better than doing things with Jinyiwei, right? ”
Zhu Hao said that he carefully observed this, and found that the look of vigilance on Lu Song's face had lightened a lot.
This is Zhu Hao's control of Lu Song's psychology, knowing what the other party is looking forward to the most, plus Zhu Hao himself is also so thoughtful, so he naturally sympathizes with each other.
Lu Song asked, "Young Master Zhu, is it ...... Who has ever pointed you out? ”
"Hmm."
Zhu Hao could only nod in acknowledgement.
No one thinks that a little kid can think of much.
"Lu Dianzhan went to inquire and knew that after my father was martyred, the family has always wanted to take back the property he left behind, and even my entry into Xingwangfu was arranged by the family, which was deliberately pushing me into the fire pit...... The master behind me said that only by relying on the Xingwang Mansion can I get rid of the family control, and I may have a future in the future...... I didn't lie to you. ”
"I believe in you."
Lu Song's attitude finally relaxed, "How do you want me to help you?" ”
This fully shows that Lu Song is not ignorant of the origin of the Zhu family.
Since he knew that the Zhu family and Lin Baihu, the liaison behind him, had the same purpose, how could he not investigate the background of the Zhu family?
Zhu Hao was very happy, and had a secret conversation with Lu Song alone, which was full of dangers, and now it seemed that the progress and harvest were not bad, and he said at the moment: "I hope that Lu Dianzhan can help me gain a foothold in Xingwangfu and protect my safety." ”
"Hmm." Lu Song nodded.
Zhu Hao said: "Also, I want to bring the words to the little prince and the county lord through Ling Lang's mouth, and tell them the real situation of me here." ”
Lu Song stretched out his hand to interrupt Zhu Hao's words: "By the way, you haven't said it yet, how did you follow ...... Zhu San and Zhu Si met? ”
"We've caught rabbits together...... There are secret passages in the palace where you can sneak out, and I met them at the flower and bird market, and they became very good friends...... Speaking of which, I asked them to make a suggestion to King Xing and select a companion ......"
Originally, Lu Song was suspicious of Zhu Hao's words.
But now this little guy even knows about Zhu San and Zhu Si raising rabbits, and it is indeed Zhu San and Zhu Si who proposed to recruit companions with Zhu Youqi, all kinds of situations can be matched, so he can't believe it.
