Chapter Fifty-Three: Metamorphosis (Collect!) )

Lu Song listened to Yuan Zonggao's words and was inspired a lot.

When he went to contact Lin Baihu that night, he knew what to say and what not to say, and the most important thing was to ensure that the people of Jinyiwei would not know that Zhu Houxi had fallen into the fire and was rescued by Zhu Hao.

If Jinyiwei's people knew that he and Zhu Hao not only did not help kill Zhu Houxi, but instead came to the rescue, it is estimated that Jinyiwei's punishment would not be light.

On Zhu Hao's side, he took the opportunity to discuss the recent business strategy with Zhu Niang that night.

"Xiao Hao, our business with the owner of Su is still continuing, and the silver is earning more and more, but the mother is becoming more and more uneasy in her heart, if it is found out by the government...... We will be in a situation from which we will never recover...... There will be a long time before you reach adulthood, and my mother wants to save some more money and exchange the business out......"

After Zhu Niang learned that her son was in danger in the palace, she felt that her persistence did not make much sense.

It's better to go back to the Zhu family with your son, even if it is not good, the son can also practice martial arts, even if he does not inherit the position of the hundred households left by his father, the mother and son can live peacefully and peacefully if they work hard, even if they live a mediocre life for a lifetime, it is much better than letting their son take risks in the palace and lick blood from the knife all day long.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Mother, the son of Changshou Zhixian is now a classmate with me, and he will not embarrass us, and the Zhu family will not trouble us because I am in the palace...... We all got through the difficulties at the beginning, and now we say that it is too early to give up? ”

Zhu Niang didn't say anything, but apparently she had her own ideas.

A widow takes her son, and when the son is young, she will not obey her son in everything, and she will still take action when it is time to do it.

……

……

The next morning, when Zhu Hao was discussing with Yu San to recruit people outside the city and increase the number of salt fields, Zhu Ting hurriedly ran over: "Brother, grandmother is here." ”

Zhu Jia's arrival was already expected by Zhu Hao.

Put down what you were doing and come to the hall to see Zhu Jia's family.

At this time, Zhu Jiashi was sitting in front of his son's spiritual seat, his face gloomy.

Aunt Li was in front to take care of the shop's business, and Zhu Niang stood aside with pear blossoms and rain.

Obviously, before Zhu Hao came over, Zhu Niang had begged her mother-in-law, hoping that Zhu Hao would not enter the palace again, but she was ruthlessly refused.

"Zhu Hao, what happened in the palace yesterday?" Zhu Jiashi asked with a gloomy face.

Zhu Hao said aggrievedly: "Someone wants to burn me." ”

Zhu Jiashi didn't feel too surprised, and said with a straight face: "You mean that the fire in the palace has something to do with you?" I heard that a child was rescued from the fire, was that you? ”

Zhu Hao had long thought that the fire in the palace was very noisy, and it was impossible for the Zhu family, who was keeping an eye on the palace, and the Jinyi guard behind it to be completely unaware.

Zhu Hao said: "At that time, I was choked by the smoke and almost fainted, I ...... I don't know ......."

It depends on how Lu Song reported to Lin Baihu, and how much Lin Baihu said to Zhu Jia's family.

In Zhu Hao's opinion, he can be sloppy in this kind of matter, as long as he knows that this fire is aimed at himself and that he is in danger, it will be enough.

Zhu Jiashi obviously didn't know the details, and continued to ask with a dark face: "Then why didn't you go back to the palace when you were at home today?" ”

Zhu Niang knelt down: "Mother, Xiao Hao's identity has been revealed, and the palace has a bad idea...... Wouldn't you send him to die when you go back now? ”

That's what he said, but how could Zhu Jiashi let go?

"Who is to blame for his own identity that he accidentally leaked? Besides, it's an errand he should have undertaken, so do you want to quit now? In this way, don't the entire Anlu people know that my Zhu family has bad intentions against Xingwangfu? Zhu Jiashi glared at his daughter-in-law angrily.

"Ahem!"

Zhu Hao coughed and said, "Grandmother, dare to ask, could it be that before I entered the palace, the purpose of the Zhu family moving to Anlu was not known to the Wangfu?" ”

Zhu Jiashi said angrily: "Bastard thing! The third family, this is the son you taught? Talking to elders like this? ”

Zhu Hao didn't give up, and said, "Grandmother, I'm just telling the truth...... On the first day I entered the palace, people around me were talking about it, saying that I was a member of the Zhu family, and that Yuan Changshi of the palace had instructions to keep a close watch on me and avoid more contact with the prince......"

"At that time, I didn't understand why I was targeted, until I was set on fire yesterday and almost burned to death in the fire, I finally figured it out, in fact, they didn't plan to let me stay in the palace for a long time from the first day!"

It's still a contradiction, but this time Zhu Jiashi is not as angry as just now.

It's obvious that people are not stupid people who are prospering the prince's mansion, recruiting companions for the little prince, wouldn't they investigate the identity and background of the child?

Knowing that this child is from the Zhu family will give him the opportunity to get in touch with the core secrets of the palace?

What does Xingwangfu care about the most?

Naturally, it is the absolute safety of the prince Zhu Houxi!

"You have to go back!"

Zhu Jiashi shouted.

Zhu Hao did not answer this time.

That's what I want!

The reason why Yuan Zonggao was not in a hurry to find him back was probably waiting for the Zhu family to put pressure on him and his mother, you just forced you to come to the door, and you didn't have a plan to escape from the house, and it didn't exceed my expectations.

It's a logical thing, go back and go back!

"Mother......

Zhu Niang had a resolute attitude, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, hoping that the old lady would be soft-hearted.

But Zhu Jiashi was unmoved, got up and walked to the door, and coldly threw down a sentence: "If you don't go, the family will take your son back and send him to the kiln as a coolie, and he will not be able to get out in his life...... You weigh it up! ”

Zhu Niang's body shook violently.

Is there such a grandmother?

Zhu Hao is the blood of the Zhu family!

If you can't complete the mission of the Zhu family, you will be sent to the bitter kiln? Does the Zhu family still have humanity?

……

……

"Mother, get up."

Zhu Hao saw the old lady slamming the door, shook his head and sighed, leaned down to support Zhu Niang.

To say that the old lady came to the door in person, there is a great significance, that is, to let Zhu Niang, who has always had expectations for the family, realize the reality that it is necessary for her son to enter the palace.

If the old lady didn't come to threaten, Zhu Niang would not let her son return to the palace at all.

The mother and son went to the backyard to bid farewell to Zhu Jia's family, but saw Steward Liu standing abruptly in front of the moon gate.

Zhu Hao noticed that Steward Liu's expression was not normal, and suddenly remembered that when he was talking to the old lady in the hall just now, there was a dark shadow outside the window, could it be that Steward Liu was lying there eavesdropping?

Later, because the old lady left the house suddenly, Steward Liu retreated in a hurry, so that he was waiting at the door of the backyard, but now he is outside the second gate of the backyard.

Zhu Hao secretly wondered: "This old guy seems to be honest and honest, dedicated to his family, and has won the trust of the old lady, why do you want to inquire into the internal affairs of my Zhu family, especially about my situation in the palace?" Could it be that he is also a member of the Jinyi Guard? ”

"Old lady."

Steward Liu's face quickly returned to calm, as if he had just come in from the back door to greet Zhu Jiashi.

Zhu Jiashi ignored it and walked straight to the back door.

Zhu Niang originally wanted to follow and beg, but the old lady suddenly turned around and stared at her viciously, Zhu Niang trembled violently, and could only watch Zhu Jia's leave ruthlessly.

Steward Liu followed out of the door, and glanced at Zhu Hao intentionally or unintentionally when he turned around and closed the door.

Originally, Zhu Hao didn't pay attention to this person, but because he secretly inquired about the affairs of the Zhu family, he was suspicious and secretly figured out the reason.

……

……

After Zhu Jiashi left, Zhu Niang's face was gray.

Walking to the front yard with his son, the whole person was in a trance, and he was almost knocked down by the wooden shelf on the ground, but fortunately, Zhu Hao stepped forward in time to help him.

"Mother, I said a long time ago that the Zhu family has no kindness to us, and if there is a chance in the future, we must get rid of the family control."

Zhu Hao said, "But I can understand my grandmother's thoughts...... Finally, there is an inside line who can spy on the information of the palace, how can I be allowed to leave as soon as I go? ”

Zhu Niang didn't say much.

Zhu Niang's expression was not normal that day, and she didn't talk to her son, but silently packed the bedding for her son.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhu Hao was about to return to the palace after his vacation, and Zhu Niang said to her son: "My mother has thought about it, and in the future, she may do business in Jiangjiang and Jiangxi, and transport salt to the east along the river...... If it is feasible, my mother will find a way to let you go to Jiangjiang to study and never return to Anlu. ”

It doesn't matter if this is said, Zhu Hao glanced at Zhu Niang again.

A feudal and conservative woman, who was worried that trafficking in illicit salt would affect her son's future, wanted to stop and return to the family as soon as possible.

But now for the sake of her son, she is thinking about letting her son leave the Huguang realm, probably because she thinks that no matter how powerful the Zhu family is, it is impossible to get involved in Jiang Jiang's side.

The son went to study in other places, which could prevent the son from being involved in the disputes between the Zhu family and the palace to the greatest extent.

"Mother, you have a heart...... I'd like to tell you a secret, but be sure to keep it a secret. Zhu Hao's face was mysterious.

"Huh?" Zhu Niang was puzzled.

Zhu Hao smiled: "Do you know why the governor of the Xingwang Mansion will come to the door in person?" In fact, yesterday's fire, I saved a person in the fire, it was the son of King Xing, that is, the only son of King Xing...... It was I who risked my life to save him from the brink of death, do you think the people of the palace will still hurt me? ”

"Huh?"

This time, Zhu Niang's face was full of shock.

Zhu Hao said: "Originally, I entered the palace, it was indeed a crisis, but I am good friends with the prince of Xingwang, if His Majesty continues to have no children today, the future prince of Xingwang will be the first heir to the throne, equivalent to the crown prince ......"

"I saved the prince of Xingwang in danger, if the people of Xingwangfu repay virtue with grievances and continue to harm me, it is against the will of God, how can I be qualified to inherit the throne?"

The look of consternation on Zhu Niang's face still did not dissipate, and she hurriedly said, "Xiao Hao, do you know what you are talking about?" ”

Zhu Hao smiled and said, "I actually want to tell my mother that I am very safe in the palace...... Only by talking about my experience in the palace is full of dangers, will my grandmother feel that she owes us, so that she will not continue to be embarrassed, which will help my mother to do business, and our family will survive in Anlu in the future. ”

"So, mother, you don't have to think about my study tour in Jiangjiang for the time being, I will study hard in the palace in the future, strive to become the right-hand man of the prince, and in the future, I will be on the rise and win a life for my mother."

Zhu Niang didn't expect such words to come from the mouth of a child, who was still her son.

How can ordinary people have such an insight?

"Mother, let me tell you another secret, in fact, it is the second time that I saved the prince of Xing, and there was another time before...... How much do you think I have a relationship with him? I will appear to him whenever he is in danger, if he really has a chance to become emperor in the future......"

Zhu Niang couldn't listen to it anymore, so she stretched out her slender jade hand to seal her son's mouth and prevent her son from talking.

"Xiaohao, as long as you are safe and sound in the palace, no matter how you study, your mother doesn't have to worry so much, you ...... Take care! ”

Zhu Niang's purpose is very simple, as long as her son is safe, everything else is floating clouds.
