"A child, as for that?"

The voice is unfamiliar.

"Why not? As long as you can perform meritorious service in front of the Marquis, you will be appreciated by Yuan Changshi. Don't you want to be a guard of the palace and get a salary?"

The two discussed for a long time, but did not come up with any results.

The sounds of "wow" and "wow" sounded, and then the smell of urine came. Zhu Hao was startled for a moment, and then shook his head. These two guys actually discussed it on the spot at their convenience. It seemed that they had drank a lot before, otherwise

I wouldn't talk about such secret things outside without any hesitation, and he would just happen to hear me.

Zhu Hao thought for a moment, did they come here to scare him on purpose? But then he denied the idea... It seemed that they didn't know that he was hiding.

After Jian Maoluo and his companions left, when Zhu Hao was worried that his life safety was threatened, he saw another person walking out of the gap in the wall on the other side.

There was actually a person hiding behind the corridor wall in advance and eavesdropping on the conversation between the two?

This really surprised Zhu Hao.

He was hiding in a high place to keep an eye on him, but he didn't expect that there was someone hiding in the dark. Fortunately, he didn't move rashly and was not noticed by this person. The other person was very cautious and waited for the person to leave for a long time before he came out from the dark.

He showed up everywhere, but still walked close to the wall. This vigilance showed that he was a professional in intelligence, and Zhu Hao felt really ashamed.

Zhu Hao was glad that he was hiding in the dark on the roof. If he had made a slight move just now, he would have lost the initiative.

The dark shadow walked out against the wall and did not pass by the windproof tung oil lamp. Zhu Hao knew nothing about it except that he roughly recognized it as a burly figure.

"Danger is everywhere."

Zhu Hao realized clearly that he had entered a wolf's den, surrounded by jackals, tigers and leopards.

It was already certain that Jian Maoluo and himself were enemies, but we couldn't tell whether the black shadow was an enemy, a friend, or a third-party force.

…

…

Zhu Hao didn't sleep that night.

It was almost dawn when he came down from the roof, and no one appeared in the middle.

After successfully walking out of the east gate of Prince Xing's Mansion, Zhu Hao felt like he was reincarnated.

Although I have only been in the palace for a few days, my mood has grown in these few days, and I have strengthened my belief that I must stay in the palace and become friends and partners with Zhu Houcong as soon as possible.

Return home.

I didn't want Butler Liu to come to the city early in the morning and wait to take Zhu Hao back to Zhu's house.

"Third Madam, since Brother Hao has come back, I will take him back to see the old lady first and send him back to you before noon."

Butler Liu is different from Zhu Wanjian. He is very scheming, but he is always a servant, so he has to be extremely respectful to Zhu Niang.

Zhu Niang originally wanted to care about her son and ask about his daily life in the palace, but she didn't want to be picked up by the old lady's people as soon as she met him, but she had no idea what to do.

"Xiao Hao, go early and come back early."

Zhu Niang's concern was beyond words.

…

…

Butler Liu drove Zhu Hao out of the city and came to the Zhu family manor.

After entering Zhuangzi, I went straight to the back hall and saw the old lady Zhu Jia and a man wearing a royal guard uniform. At first glance, he was a relatively high-status member of the royal guards.

"Lin Baihu, my grandson has been brought back. Can we discuss the matter?"

When Zhu Jiashi saw Zhu Hao, she looked proud and proud, different from her previous indifferent and dismissive attitude. Zhu Hao seemed to have become the most important bargaining chip in her negotiations with Lin Baihu.

Lin Baihu nodded, went into the main room with Zhu Jia and Zhu Hao, closed the door, and prepared to talk to Zhu Hao alone.

"Grandson, did you see the little prince after you entered the palace?" Zhu Jia asked as he came up.

Zhu Hao couldn't say that he didn't even enter the inner chamber after entering the palace. Wouldn't that make him worthless?

Zhu Hao said what he had planned for a long time: "I've met them, they are two young men of the same age, but I can't study with them right now."

When lying, you should pay attention to half truths and half lies to prevent others from exposing you.

Sure enough, Lin Baihu sneered: "How did I hear that after you entered the palace, you were assigned to chop firewood? You didn't even enter the gate of the inner courtyard of the palace, how did you meet the little prince?"

has a problem.

Zhu Hao immediately realized that Lin Baihu had an inside line in Prince Xing's Mansion and could find out the information inside.

"Lin Baihu, do you mean you don't believe what my grandson said?"

It was rare for Zhu Jia to stand on Zhu Hao's side.

A playful smile appeared on Lin Baihu's lips. It goes without saying that I just don't believe what this little devil said.

Zhu Hao said: "After I entered the palace, I met two little princes, both seven or eight years old, and a young man, only four or five years old. He seemed to be the child of an official of the Royal Palace's Yiwei Department. His surname was Lu, and he was also a companion.

I read that the other one is the young master of the Jingzhi County family, but I haven’t seen him until now.”

"The royal tutor's surname is Sui, and he is a local scholar. He once conducted an assessment on us. This time we only met briefly. As expected, we will study with him in the future..."

Zhu Hao knew a lot about Prince Xing's Mansion, so he could still fool the two people in front of him.

After hearing Zhu Hao's words, Lin Baihu's face muscles twitched a few times. He was obviously calmed down by the information Zhu Hao had found out in a few days.

Zhu Jia took the opportunity to ask: "You mean, there are two princes of the same age?"

"yes."

Zhu Hao said, "But they may not all be princes. There may be only one of them. They usually live together and are inseparable. It seems that they are really one and the same mother..."

Lin Baihu did not dwell on this issue and asked: "You mean, in addition to you and the young master from Jingzhi County, there is also a child named Lu who comes from the Imperial Palace's Yiwei Department as a companion?"

This attitude suddenly made Zhu Hao suspicious.

It shouldn't be a secret that Mr. Jing and I were selected to be the companions, but you didn't know that Lu Bing was the companion? Jiang Lun said it at that time, which shows that Prince Xing's palace did not hide Lu Bing's selection.

As a member of the Jinyiwei Baihu, you were probably sent by the imperial court to investigate Prince Xing's Mansion. You know my whereabouts very well, but you don't have the most basic information?

"I'm in the palace now, and I'm a bit young... Of course, it's possible that I just went to the palace to play, I'm not sure." Zhu Hao wanted to use this argument to see Lin Baihu's reaction.

Seeing Lin Baihu's strong reaction to the "companion surnamed Lu", Zhu Jia couldn't help but smile proudly: "Lin Baihu, it seems that the information you have obtained has some shortcomings. Now can we tell you that you are in Prince Xing's Mansion?"

Which spy has been installed in exchange for my Zhu family?"

They actually discussed the issue of intelligence sharing.

In front of Zhu Hao, Zhu Jiashi told the story about Lin Baihu's secret wire in Prince Xing's Mansion. Zhu Hao was surprised. Could it be that Zhu Jiashi wanted him as a child to connect with Lin Baihu's secret wire?

?

Lin Baihu's attitude was indifferent: "How to cooperate specifically, let's wait until your son officially studies with the little prince... I have something to do, so I'll take my leave."

He actually stopped asking Zhu Hao what information he had found out and turned around to leave, indicating that he had obtained the information he wanted.

Lu Bing serves as his companion, could it be the information he wants?

…

…

Lin Baihu left, and Zhu Jia went to see him off. When he came back after seeing off, his face returned to its usual indifference.

"In addition to the two people who may be the little princes, who else did you meet in the palace?" Zhu Jiashi only cares about obtaining information.

He completely treats his grandson as a tool.

Zhu Hao asked back: "Grandma, my grandson would like to ask, Lin Baihu, is he sent by the imperial court to supervise Prince Xing's Mansion, right? He has an informant in the Prince's Mansion? But I don't know his identity?"

"This has nothing to do with you."

Zhu Jiashi looked down on Zhu Hao and did not want to answer his grandson's questions, let alone explain in detail.

Zhu Haodao: "But...grandma, in the past few days since my grandson has been in the palace, I have probably found out that someone in the Royal Palace's Yiwei Department is acting sneaky, often coming in and out of the palace in the middle of the night... Although I don't know who it is, it may be Lin Baihu's spy.

?”

The contempt on Zhu Jia's face disappeared, and she turned to look at Zhu Hao with cautious eyes.

"What else do you know?"

Zhu Jiashi took it seriously.

"The grandson needs time to investigate, but now the grandson wants to know more information about Lin Baihu's spy. Is this person from Jin Yiwei, and did father and son come to Anlu together? Or what happened in the middle that caused Lin Baihu to follow

The relationship with this person...is not very close, what if we are separated from each other?"

Zhu Hao had already roughly guessed the direction.

Since he is an informant and ambushed in the palace, he must be from Jinyiwei.

Why was such simple information about Lu Bing being a companion withheld, unless Lin Baihu’s spy didn’t want young Lu Bing to be put in danger...

As a result, Lin Baihu's eyeliner is ready to come out.

Isn’t it Lu Bing’s father, Lu Song?
To be continued...
