In the next few days, although Zhu Hao and Jing Hong stayed in the palace, they could only go to the academy to study alone, and Zhu San, Zhu Si and Lu Bing did not appear again.

There is no gentleman to take care of it, a laissez-faire posture, to go to the canteen to eat at noon, no one cares if he comes in the afternoon, he goes back to the dormitory to sleep at night, he can still go out of the palace freely, no one follows, but it is very troublesome when he comes back at night, and from time to time he is extorted a sum of money for wine by the night guard who guards the door......

Even Jing Hong saw that the problem was wrong: "Zhu Hao, doesn't the palace plan to keep us?" ”

At this time, it was the twentieth day of the lunar month.

Zhu Hao smiled: "Did you just see it?" ”

The huge school building looks very empty.

The blackboard hung there, it was deserted, there were fewer people, and it felt very cold.

Jing Hong tightened his heavy winter coat and sighed: "I didn't expect to leave the palace so soon, but if we go together, I will feel better, maybe my father won't be too disappointed in me...... If you don't have a place to study...... I can ask my father to let you come to the county government to study with me. ”

Zhu Hao looked at Jinghong with impressive eyes.

Jinghong showed his intention to compete with him before, but he didn't expect to think about his opponent and want to help his opponent regain the opportunity to study.

"Let's take care of yourself and enjoy our last classmates in the days leading up to the end of the year." After Zhu Hao finished speaking, he took out the book seriously and covered his head...... Fall asleep.

……

……

The twenty-first day of the lunar month.

The palace was ready to send the two companions away, and Lu Song personally came to inform Zhu Hao and Jing Hong that they could go home for the New Year.

Jing Hong packed up his belongings in a sullen voice, and after half a year in the palace, he overcame his unaccustomed habits, and now he is a little reluctant.

After all, in the palace, he has gained a lot, he has friends and competitors, even if he is usually entertained by Zhu San, he cherishes these friends who can share joys and sorrows with him.

"Zhu Hao, you come with me, I'll take you somewhere." Lu Song looked at Zhu Hao again.

"Where?"

Zhu Hao's words seemed to be open-minded and unguarded, Lu Song had already turned around, and couldn't help but glance back when he heard the words.

This kid, don't you know that there are some things to avoid Jinghong? You can be real.

"You'll know when you get there."

Lu Song threw down a sentence and waited in the courtyard first.

After waiting for a while, Zhu Hao came out of it and followed behind Lu Song without saying a word, Lu Song asked curiously, "You can't guess everything?" Do you know where I'm going to take you? ”

Zhu Hao stretched out his hands: "I'm not the roundworm in your stomach, why do you know everything?" It's just to meet someone, and they won't find a place to kill me, and then dig a pit and bury it on the spot, right? ”

Lu Song glanced at Zhu Hao angrily: "Take you to see Yuan Changshi." ”

Before leaving, Zhu Hao felt that Yuan Zonggao had no good intentions, and this time he was probably deceiving him in the posture of an old fox, preparing to extract the last news from him.

……

……

I didn't go to the inner courtyard of the palace, but I went to the east courtyard.

When I came to the place where Zhu Hao lived before, at this time, with the concerted efforts of the craftsmen, the yard had been repaired, but it was no longer a warehouse, and there were some wooden shelves, I don't know what to do.

Yuan Zonggao stood there, looking at the furnishings in the courtyard, waiting for Zhu Hao to arrive.

"Yuan Changshi, Zhu Hao brought it." Lu Song saluted.

Zhu Hao stepped forward and bowed in greeting, and at this time Yuan Zonggao turned around, and uncharacteristically, the old fox did not have a smile on his face.

Yuan Zonggao said earnestly: "Zhu Hao, are you familiar with this place?" ”

Zhu Hao thought to himself, I've lived here, isn't your question nonsense? Old fox, you still like to go around in circles.

"Hmm." Zhu Hao nodded.

Yuan Zonggao said: "After the fire in the palace, it was almost burned to the ground, and now it has been roughly repaired, but the courtyard is a little unlucky, and there is no way to live in it, so it can only be vacant first...... Zhu Hao, do you know how that fire was lit? ”

There was a hint of temptation in his words, but Zhu Hao's expression did not evade it at all: "I don't know." ”

Yuan Zonggao smiled: "Don't you know, or don't you dare to say it?" ”

Lu Song shouted coldly: "If you ask you, you will say it directly!" ”

Zhu Hao said: "They all say that it was the fire set by the sharp hair, but I think the person with the sharp hair is bad, but he is very stupid and easy to be used by others, and he set the fire in broad daylight...... It's not like his style, but he wants to kill me, and I can see it clearly. ”

Lu Song was surprised at first, and after coming back to his senses, he quickly observed Yuan Zonggao's reaction, and found that Yuan Zonggao's face was also a little stagnant.

Seven-year-olds see people accurately......

It's just a small thing to look at.

Yuan Zonggao's expression was stunned for only a moment, and then he changed his tone and asked: "Jianmao Hao was later sentenced to exile, but the palace sent someone to ask him, and he didn't admit that he set the fire to death, and repeatedly said that he was wronged, and he confessed that he was beaten into a trick at the beginning, and he also said...... This fire may have something to do with you......"

Zhu Hao said: "He wants to say, did I set the fire to wronged him with my intention?" ”

Yuan Zonggao smiled and did not answer positively.

Lu Song said sharply: "Is that fire related to you?" ”

Zhu Hao shook his head: "Yuan Changshi, I'm just a child, I was forced by the family step by step, I had to enter the palace, I wanted to have a chance to study, although I was threatened by the family, I didn't divulge the secrets in the palace that shouldn't be passed on, even if I wanted to sabotage it...... Isn't it good for me to burn somewhere else? Why burn where you live? ”

Yuan Zonggao saw that Zhu Hao's emotions had risen, and he thought that the conspiracy had succeeded, and said with a smile: "No one doubts you, you have seen your bravery when you rescued people from the fire, but the fourth prince happened to appear here, and things were too coincidental." ”

Zhu Hao said: "The fourth prince? Isn't it the son of the world? ”

"Huh?"

Yuan Zonggao was speechless for a while.

"Yuan Changshi, I have been with the county lord and the prince for nearly half a year, if I can't tell their identities...... Are you too ignorant of the world? But I have nothing to hide, knowing is knowing, and I knew their true identities before entering the palace. Zhu Hao said.

Yuan Zonggao's expression was grim, no longer the cunning of the old fox before, and he shouted and asked, "What did you say?" ”

Zhu Hao said: "I said before, before entering the palace, the county lord took the prince to meet me, to buy rabbits from me, the prince even called the county lord 'third sister', but after I entered the palace, he changed his name to the third brother, I rescued people from the fire, and those who came to investigate the situation, including Zhang Fengzheng, directly called 'the prince'." And my family also told me that King Xing has only one son, and that is the son. ”

Yuan Zonggao originally felt that Zhu Hao had any bad intentions, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

The feelings have long been exposed, the palace is acting, and Zhu Hao is just cooperating with acting? This kid...... How deep is the scheming?

"But Yuan Changshi, please rest assured, I have never mentioned the identity of the county lord and the prince to my family, and I didn't even reveal half a sentence in front of Jinghong, I came to the palace to study, if the palace doesn't need me, let me leave, I can leave at any time...... I am planning to go on a study tour in other places, so that I can avoid being used by the Zhu family again, and the affairs of the palace have nothing to do with me in the future. ”

"As for the fire, it really has nothing to do with me, I have wronged my mouth for growing on others, and I can't stop it if I want to, but I just want to state one thing, if I have a conspiracy and set the fire, why do I have to go into the fire to save people? Is it to find death? ”

Zhu Hao is relatively "sincere", and when he was about to leave the palace, he was "open and honest" in front of the old fox Yuan Zonggao.

Yuan Zonggao looked at Lu Song and found that Lu Song was also looking at him.

After the two looked at each other, they seemed to have put down their last vigilance against Zhu Hao, there are indeed a lot of things that don't make sense, just Zhu Hao "risked death" to rescue the son from the fire, it is a great credit, even if it is not a sharp hairy fire, it can only be someone else, or it is really as Zhu Houxi said that he accidentally caught fire when he was playing with the marquee.

……

……

Yuan Zonggao looked at Zhu Hao with a smile, nodded and said, "With your intelligence, you will definitely make great achievements in the future, no wonder Tang Bohu chose you to be his disciple." ”

Zhu Hao said: "Yuan Changshi, I'm about to leave the palace, right?" ”

Yuan Zonggao smiled and did not answer.

"If I leave, can the palace help me hide it for a few days? I want to let the Zhu family know the news after leaving Anlu with my family...... I'm afraid that I will be arrested by the clan and use me to blackmail my mother, not to mention studying in the future, and I don't even have the right to go out freely. Zhu Hao looked earnest.

Yuan Zonggao thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Zhu Hao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and arched his hand: "Thank you Yuan Changshi for your teaching, even if I study abroad in the future, I will not forget this experience in the palace, if I have the opportunity...... Be rewarded. Then Yuan Changshi, I'll go back and pack my things. ”

Yuan Zonggao raised his hand: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, I have something to ask you." ”

Zhu Hao made a gesture of listening.

Yuan Zonggao said: "Can you tell me, why did Tang Bohu let you enter the Xingwang Mansion?" Just to make you read? ”

Zhu Hao said: "Yuan Changshi is talking about Mr. Lu, right?" He said that there is a hidden dragon in Anlu, and he will definitely leap into the nine heavens in the future and bring blessings to the world...... I think the dragon he is talking about is the son of the world, right? ”

Hearing Zhu Hao's words, even if Yuan Zonggao was forbearing, his face couldn't help but show joy.

This sycophancy......

It was Xingwangfu that was filmed, but Yuan Zonggao felt very comfortable when he heard it.

"Zhu Hao, you know the road, go back by yourself, the old man still has something to tell Lu Dianzhan." Yuan Zonggao surprisingly didn't let Lu Song send Zhu Hao back.

Zhu Hao saluted and retired.

After Zhu Hao left, Lu Song looked at Yuan Zonggao in confusion: "Yuan Changshi, don't you think that fire is really related to Zhu Hao?" ”

Yuan Zonggao smiled: "Whether it is relevant or not, what does it matter?" He was interested in Xing Wangfu, but the old man saw this clearly, talked to him, and even was a little reluctant to send him out of the palace, wanting to leave him...... Such a genius is really rare in the world. ”

Lu Song became nervous, thinking to himself, could this not be Zhu Hao's purpose? said something high-sounding, just to win Yuan Zonggao's trust? Want to stay in the palace?

"That ......"

"Still don't stay!"

Yuan Zonggao shook his head and sighed, "It's an eventful autumn, and more things are better than less." also fulfilled him by the way, let him leave Anlu with his family, and if there is a need for help, the palace can help...... Just try to help. His departure from Anlu was not a good thing for the palace. ”
