Chapter 696: Winning a Thousand Miles Away

Zhu Hao admitted very casually.

Just as this is such a trivial matter, fame and fortune seem to him to be really insignificant, and he can discard it at will.

But in Lou Suzhen's ears, the mood is not so calm.

Even if she learned from Sun Lan that the song "Linjiang Immortal" was written by Zhu Hao, after all, Sun Jiao could not deceive his daughter, but when Lou Suzhen was admitted by Zhu Hao himself, she was still impressed by Zhu Hao's unfazed grace.

"Childe, that ancient noun...... Did you really do it?"

Lou Suzhen couldn't believe it for a while.

Even if it was confirmed that it was Zhu Hao, she still wanted to continue to ask and find out, after all, she didn't think that there was really such a person in the world who was indifferent to fame and fortune...... We have to find out the truth.

She remembered that when she went to the restaurant with Zhu Hao to eat hot pot, she heard the scholar next door talking about this poem, and Zhu Hao showed a look of "love whoever you love", even if she knew that others were spreading that the word was written by Yang Shen, Zhu Hao didn't argue, now think about it......

Is this really the open-mindedness that mortals can do?

Zhu Hao said: "It's a bit absurd to say, I wrote a poem by myself, but it was hung in someone else's name, but fortunately, Yang Yongxiu was embarrassed to publicize that it was made by him, and even in front of Sun Lao, he frankly admitted that it was my work, but the villain's mentality is undoubtedly revealed...... But now I don't have the heart to think about it, and this time the journey south is a bit twisty and difficult, so I don't dare to be distracted."

What does Zhu Hao mean, can you Lou Suzhen not make a fuss?

Isn't it just writing a poem?

No matter how famous you are, is it better than doing things for the emperor?

Is it better than the hidden phase of the Ming Dynasty?

Lou Suzhen said: "If the son feels that the journey is bumpy, the concubine can accompany him all the way."

"This ...... I don't have to."

Zhu Hao refused Lou Suzhen's invitation.

Zhu Hao knows very well that Lou Suzhen said that he was accompanying him to the south, in fact, the main purpose was to go to Jiangnan to have a look, to find out the whereabouts of the Lou family, and talking along the way may really relieve boredom, but let a person who should have died in the official history accompany him, wouldn't the person who went south with him suspect it?

Lou Suzhen's temperament and conversation are there, and if she is a person, she knows that she is from an extraordinary background, even if she is dressed in men's clothes, people in this world are not all fools, and they will still be noticed after all.

Lou Suzhen asked, "What's that...... Can Mrs. Ling come along?"

Zhu Hao continued to shake his head.

"Childe, is your marriage to Miss Ouyang Family decided? Let her serve by your side." Lou Suzhen said.

Zhu Hao said: "She will follow me to Nanjing, but not in the same way, I went south this time nominally to check the accounts, but in fact, there are people everywhere on the way, except for official business, I can't take care of it, and I can't do it." So Madame need not worry too much about my journey south."

When Lou Suzhen heard this, she knew that no matter how much she said, it was useless.

Zhu Hao has already made proper arrangements, and it is difficult to help Zhu Hao by himself, and it is unrealistic to want to add the part she suggested to Zhu Hao's original plan.

"Speaking of which, Childe is going south this time, and we may not be able to see each other for a long time...... It's really sad that I can't talk to my son anymore."

Lou Suzhen sighed from the bottom of her heart.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Mr. Tang will not leave the capital, I will let him come over to talk to his wife more often and talk about his loneliness."

Lou Suzhen glanced at Zhu Hao and said, "Gongzi is really good at sending people, what Mr. Tang is thinking about is how to be free and light, return to his hometown to live the kind of life of idle clouds and wild cranes, and let go of Manan Mountain, and the concubine can listen to him when he talks about state affairs?"

Zhu Hao said: "Madame, don't forget our previous agreement, to make Mr. a pillar of the Ming Dynasty, not because of how much ability he has, but because he is down-to-earth and willing to work hard towards a goal...... As a student, I have never been able to supervise it, so it is better for my wife to persuade me!"

said that you stayed by my side, the purpose is to help Tang Yin get on the right track of life and do a good job as the emperor's staff and courtiers.

Now let you manage the women's school, you are good, you have interests and life pursuits,

Are you going to leave the sun behind?

That's not going to work!

Say good things, and you have to help me do them, no matter how you use them.

Ra also wants to pull Tang Yin to the court and let him continue to work!

……

……

The night before departure, after meeting Lou Suzhen, Zhu Hao knew that the person who was traveling with him was Yu Chengxun whom he predicted.

The imperial court did not send people from the Ministry of Works or the Ministry of Household to the south, and the people from the Three Law Divisions did not accompany them, so they sent two Hanlin to investigate the problems in the accounts of Jiangnan Haiphong, and the guidance given was that after arriving in Nanjing, the Nanjing Garrison Ministers, the Nanhu Department, and the people of Ying Tianfu would cooperate with the inspectors.

Zhu Hao and Yu Chengxun are equivalent to "Qin Cha", although they do not have the power to control everything, but they have the power to access all the account books, if they need to check someone, they can use the help of people from the Nanjing Criminal Department.

According to the meaning conveyed by Yang Shen, Yang Tinghe had already greeted him in advance, and after Zhu Hao and Yu Chengxun arrived in Nanjing, the Southern Sixth Department would fully cooperate.

There are even people from Nanjing Jinyiwei to help.

refers to Zhu Hao's uncle Zhu Wanhong.

Speaking of which, Zhu Hao hadn't heard from Zhu Wanhong for a while, he knew that Zhu Wanhong was bored in Nanjing, and he was bent on looking for an opportunity to return to Beijing, so he went to ...... Zhu Hao didn't dare to take Zhu Wanhong lightly, what if this cheap uncle threatened him again, or came up with some unconventional means?

「…… After Nanjing, Dafu will come forward to receive you, and now that he has certain connections and contacts there, he will assist you in handling the case at that time."

After Yang Shen finished conveying the matter, when he was about to leave, he said a special word to Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao said, "Brother Xiu, in fact, I am with Dafu...... It's a bit of a disagreement."

Yang Shen nodded: "I know, if you have any misunderstandings, just make it clear to your face, now Dafu has gained a firm foothold in Nanjing officialdom, but he is bent on returning to Beijing, this time is also a rare opportunity for him, if he can take the opportunity to take care of some things in the Nanhu Department...... Find out, and you all have a great credit."

Sure enough, it's a ghost.

What to say about investigating the southeast coastal defense project, in fact, to put it bluntly, is to check the southern household department and check Huang Zhan.

This is Yang Tinghe's purpose.

Zhu Hao asked, "Brother Yong, apart from us, is there anyone else investigating the case?"

Yang Shen was already about to get into the carriage, but when he heard this, he looked back at Zhu Hao, showing a little surprise, obviously Zhu Hao's question was a bit too direct, or to the point.

Zhu Hao's political consciousness is not ordinary, since Yu Chengxun and I are both Yang Ting and potential suspects, how can we let the two of Hanlin, who have little experience in handling cases, be fully responsible for such an important matter as investigating Huang Zhan? Don't put us on the surface as a pretense to attract firepower, but in fact, send someone else to investigate behind the scenes?

"No one else, do it well."

Yang Shen naturally wouldn't be honest with Zhu Hao, so he casually gave him an order, and then boarded the carriage and left.

……

……

That night, Sun Jiao was a little uneasy, and sent someone to call Zhu Hao to the house to inquire about Zhu Hao's plan to go south.

「…… The old man couldn't help you stay in the capital, but the husband made it clear that he would just let you go to the south to investigate the case, and the maximum would be three or four months, and you would be able to come back before the end of the year." Sun Jiaodao, "Jingdao, if you are not in the capital...... Your Majesty's side...... Uh, do you have any arrangements?"

Sun Jiao was not only worried about Zhu Hao, but also afraid that something would go wrong with the little emperor.

The old man has experienced a lot of things, and his thoughts are more complicated, looking forward and backward, he has to make associations about everything, and Sun Jiao is no exception.

For example, if Zhu Hao is not in the capital, can the new emperor handle all the affairs of the court, and if it is not appropriate, will Zhu Hao's secret of doing things for His Majesty be revealed?

Zhu Hao has been in the capital for a long time, will the new emperor favor others? Will Zhu Hao fall out of favor?

After Zhu Hao arrives in the south, will someone secretly stumble and even commit that assassination?

Sun Jiao has a lot of concerns, also because he knows that Zhu Hao's identity is not simple, and then he has accepted Zhu Hao's son-in-law from the bottom of his heart and doesn't want him to have an accident.

Zhu Hao smiled, "It's all arranged, Elder Sun rest assured."

Sun Jiaochang exhaled a long breath: "Jingdao, in fact, the old man doesn't respect you for being so scheming, with your age, you should really go to the local place to experience experience, but the old man knows your hardships...... This time, I wanted the dog to accompany you, but I was afraid of being gossiped about......

seems to talk to the old man who is about to die, and Sun Jiao talks very much.

Zhu Hao listened carefully, but in his heart he still thought that there was really no nutrition.

"The old man will say to you, after arriving in Jiangnan, you can't force everything, come back early after finishing things, what you have to guard against is not just Yang Jiefu, but ...... Alas!"

Sun Jiao wanted to speak and stopped.

Zhu Hao said, "Elder Sun is reminding me that if I am absent for a long time, Your Majesty will turn to trust others?"

Sun Jiao was stunned.

This kid is talking like this, he really wants to strangle him, but he can't deny it, the scene is really embarrassing.

"Whoever Your Majesty trusts, the courtiers can't interfere, all I can do is to try to reflect my own value...... In the coming period, there will be a lot of big things happening in the capital, and I have already planned everything, which is why I can go south with peace of mind and think that I can get out of the way...... Take care, I hope that when I return to the court, I will listen to your teachings more."

Zhu Hao bowed.

"You kid, it's okay to remind the old man? You mean to say that the old man will leave the dynasty before you come back, right? What are your plans? What can't you say to the old man? Do you think the old man will leak secrets?"

Sun Jiao was a little annoyed.

I feel like a transparent person, I have been seen through by Zhu Hao all over my body, and I can see through my old and spicy eyes, but I don't know what Zhu Hao is doing at all.

It's infuriating!

Sun Jiao finally understood why Zhu Hao was like a fish in water on the new emperor's side, because he seemed to be able to guess anything.

Zhu Hao smiled: "Old Sun, I want to help Bachelor Liu enter the cabinet, that's all I can say."

"Do you think it's that easy...... Maybe the old man looks at how you strategize, if Master Liu succeeds in entering the cabinet, the old man is really happy for him!"

Sun Jiaoben reprimanded Zhu Hao, saying that he was unrealistic.

But on second thought, why am I saying this?

Just make a bet with Zhu Hao to see if Zhu Hao really has the ability to strategize and win thousands of miles away, isn't it good?

It's not done, go back and teach him a lesson.

It's done, and when he returns to the capital, he will be rewarded.

This is true for young people.
