One hundred and seventieth chapters sit and talk about the road
"Young people should prepare more for the future."
Tang Yin spoke with emotion, sounding like he was admonishing, but is it really a good thing to stuff people into the big dye vat of officialdom so long ago?
Zhu Si was a little depressed after hearing this: "Can Zhu Hao take the children's examination at such a young age? Then when can we reach his level?"
Zhu San rolled his eyes and said: "Idiot, you still need to take the children's exam? Do you really think you are a child from an ordinary family?"
Zhu San sees the class gap much more clearly than his younger brother.
"Sir, if there really aren't any fish here, but we insist on fishing here, wouldn't we all be fools in the eyes of outsiders?"
Jinghong suddenly asked.
He did not participate in the discussion about Zhu Hao's participation in the Tongsheng Examination. He only cared about the purpose of sitting here.
You can obviously go back to study, even if you want to go fishing, you can go where there are fish. There are many lakes in the city, why do you have to waste your time here?
Tang Yin said: "Don't be arrogant and impatient. Fishing is purely a state of mind."
Zhu Hao corrected: "Mr. Lu's mentality should not be suitable for Jinghong. What he cares about most is the result, never the process. But I care about the process. For example, I like to be a child. I think Jinghong wishes he could be an adult tomorrow."
, can be integrated into adults’ lives.”
"Um!?"
Tang Yin was accustomed to being noble and had profound insights into worldly affairs. It could even be said that he had seen through all kinds of situations in the world.
But his well-informed attitude is more of a kind of idealism, and he uses his own likes and dislikes to determine the likes and dislikes of others.
Zhu Hao added: "This is probably the meaning of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude...the methods of teaching me and teaching Jinghong should be different? Teacher, what do you think?"
Tang Yin, who had always been aloof and arrogant, could only smile bitterly when he heard this.
Think about it too.
Most people have a purpose in doing things. Didn't Jiang Taigong go fishing to wait for King Wen of Zhou? And from Tang Yin himself to several children in front of him, they were not waiting for anyone to watch them fishing. If it was just to cultivate their character...
You, Tang Yin, who have been ups and downs for half your life and have seen through everything, can pursue this kind of quiet and inactive state, but if you let a few newborn calves in Jinghong do this, you are obviously looking for the wrong person.
Zhu Si's eyes widened: "How about... let's go out to the city to play? There should be more little rabbits this season, right?"
Zhu Sanbian said flatly: "Father will not agree. Even when we go fishing here, there are so many people following us. I'm afraid it will be even worse when we go out of the city..."
Lu Bing also put down his fishing rod and eagerly waited for Tang Yin's next plan. Obviously, he didn't want to sit in a place where there were no fish and fish.
The reactions of several children made Tang Yin understand one thing completely. Except for Zhu Hao, none of these children were interested in what he was pursuing, and they were even a little disgusted. No wonder Zhu Hao wanted to talk about teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.
Tang Yinxin said, It seems that this boy is no different from an adult in terms of knowledge and character. He even has a higher understanding of human nature than me, an old Confucian scholar who claims to be erudite.
How was he made?
…
…
Tang Yin was not qualified to take a few children out of the city. Without King Xing's nod of approval, he could only take a few children around the city.
With his authority, he can go anywhere as long as he is in the city.
Then Tang Yin took several children to the theater to watch a play.
This made several children so excited that they seemed to feel comfortable even going out to the city to listen to a play, especially since the play was written by Zhu Hao, and they had never seen the great play "Battle of Changsha" written by Guan Gong.
Zhu Hao could only ask Yu San to prepare a seat temporarily. After the performance, it was already past lunch time, and Lu Song, who was in charge of the bodyguard next to him, urged him several times to go back to the palace.
Tang Yin said hello: "Okay, that's it for today's outdoor class. Let's eat quickly when we get back. Let's go!"
"Let's listen to it one more time."
Zhu Sanyi was reluctant to leave.
Zhu Si, Jinghong and Lu Bing also stood in Zhu San's position, looking at Tang Yin eagerly, their eyes full of longing.
Zhu Hao stood up: "Coming to the theater is beyond the original plan. How much pressure does Mr. Lu have to bear in this crowded place? If you are not satisfied, then you don't know how to advance or retreat... I still provide the theater tickets.
Yes, whoever wants to stay is up to him, but it will be difficult to figure it out next time."
Compared to Tang Yin's easy-going attitude, Zhu Haocai was like that strict teacher.
Zhu Hao's words really worked.
Zhu Si and Jinghong were the first to get up and walk out of the private room, followed by Lu Bingpianpidian. No matter how reluctant Zhu San was, he could only wrinkle his nose and follow them.
Tang Yin was the last one to move. At this moment, he had some unusual thoughts. He wanted to see through Zhu Hao but found that he couldn't understand it at all.
You can say that you are an adult, but sometimes you are quite childish. How can you say that you want to be an innocent child for a few more years? He is usually the king of children, and he plays crazy with several children of the same age.
It can be said that he is a child... Can you treat this kid as a child? Then I, Tang, may not be as good as him in some aspects.
…
…
Enter the palace.
The children dispersed separately, and Lu Song, who had been accompanying them all the time, could finally breathe a sigh of relief, finally completing the escort mission without any danger.
Others were not as nervous as he was. He was the only one who knew that the Jin Yiwei people were always keeping an eye on Prince Xing's Mansion. He was also a spy planted in the Prince's Mansion, so he naturally understood the dangers involved.
"Lu Dianzhan, do you have time for a couple of drinks?"
Tang Yin came over and extended the invitation with a smile.
Lu Song hurriedly saluted: "Mr. Lu, you are too polite. How dare I have a drink with you in this humble position?"
Tang Yin smiled and said: "I have no official position in the palace, but I am just a commoner. Lu Dianzhan does not need to be so formal. I just have something to ask you about Zhu Hao... Do you think it is convenient?"
"
Unable to find the answer from Zhu Hao, Tang Yin wanted to find another way, and Lu Song was a good choice.
Lu Song frowned when he heard this.
Hearing what Tang Yin said, do you want to find out about Zhu Hao from him?
Aren't you Zhu Hao's mentor? What he learned was not taught by you? In terms of understanding Zhu Hao, you Tang Yin should have a deeper understanding of Zhu Hao than me, right? What do you mean by asking me?
Lu Song also had a lot of doubts about Zhu Hao. The two of them had something in common in terms of finding out Zhu Hao's background, so they immediately handed him over: "Mr. Lu is willing to give face to the humble post, and the humble post should hold a banquet for him."
"No, no, no, no, brother Jiang asked him where to drink before he left. You go with me. When he left Anlu, I lost a good drinking friend!"
Jiang Lun had no serious business in the palace, but he was always indispensable for eating and drinking.
Tang Yin and Jiang Lun were originally from two different worlds. One had outstanding talent and reputation, while the other was a soldier with half-knowledge. They were the kind of people who could not be compared with each other.
But because both of them like drinking, and Tang Yin has a very low self-esteem in the palace, he feels that everything is because of Zhu Hao or the master behind Zhu Hao, so he likes to drink some boring wine and talk to Jiang Lun.
The time we spent drinking together gradually increased, and our friendship became increasingly deeper.
When Chiang Kai-shek went to the capital to deliver tribute, Tang Yin naturally would not go with him.
Before Jiang Lun left, he told Tang Yin which wine shop near the palace provided better wine. Jiang Lun was a master at drinking. Tang Yin quickly integrated into the rhythm of life in Xingwang Palace and tasted the surrounding wine and food.
All over.
A wine shop near the west gate of Wangfu.
In the private room, Tang Yin drank alone with Lu Song and said that he was here to treat him to a meal.
After three rounds of drinking, Tang Yin asked directly: "Before I left Anlu, I didn't get along with Zhu Hao for a long time. From the end of June last year, I left for Nanchang and went to Anlu again in February this year. In the middle half of the year, he was in the palace.
What exactly happened?”
Lu Song thought for a while.
Although Tang Yin knew Zhu Hao very well, it was understandable that Tang Yin did not know Zhu Hao's past experiences in the palace.
This is enough to prove that Zhu Hao did not betray the secrets of the palace even in front of his enlightenment mentor, but it shows that Zhu Hao is trustworthy.
Lu Song only picked out important things to talk about.
"...After Zhu Hao was selected as a companion in the palace, he did not attend classes for ten months and lived in the woodshed in the east courtyard. Later, a fire broke out. He successfully put out the fire, and then he officially became a student under Mr. Sui's name. Later, Mr. Sui went to another place to take up a post.
, Mr. Gongsun taught him knowledge.
"At the end of the year... because of some things, he left the palace and said he was going to study abroad. It involved him and his family, and it was hard to explain clearly... Later, he and Mr. Lu came together to find a humble job and went to the palace to diagnose the prince's illness...
…”
Although Lu Song spoke in general terms, Tang Yin got the answer he wanted.
Tang Yin thought to himself, that boy really didn't trick me. He said that he was treated differently by the palace because of his merits in putting out the fire. He probably really saved the crown prince from the fire... What kind of shitty luck did he have? He happened to be rescued.
The Crown Prince? But how could the Crown Prince appear in the woodshed with his body of a thousand pieces of gold?
"What happened to that fire?" Tang Yin found the key point.
He could tell that the reason why Zhu Hao was able to gain a foothold in the palace with the negative identity of being a son of the Zhu family in Jinyiwei was all because of his merits in saving people in the fire scene.
There must be some conspiracy behind it.
That kid... has so many evil intentions, this fire must have something to do with him.
Tang Yin naturally thought so.
Lu Song explained: "It was an accidental fire..."
Tang Yin frowned: "Fire?"
Lu Song felt that he was not honest enough, so he decided to tell the truth: "In fact, someone set the fire deliberately. The criminal was handed over to the local police and was later sentenced to exile. He and Zhu Hao... had no connection at all. He just thought that Zhu Hao was born...
The Jinyiwei family and the royal family are old enemies, and we only target them if we want to make meritorious deeds."
As a witness to the fire, Lu Song later accompanied Yuan Zonggao to investigate the fire, so he knew a lot about it.
He didn't completely tell the truth to Tang Yin either.
Tang Yin smiled and nodded: "That's it."
Although he couldn't hear clearly, Tang Yin knew in his heart that the arson had nothing to do with Zhu Hao, but how could it really be unrelated? Even if it had nothing to do with it, it was still being used by Zhu Hao!
Doesn't Zhu Hao know how to take advantage of the situation? Just sit back and wait for death? Don't think the palace was deceived by that boy Zhu Hao and thought Zhu Hao had merit!
Lu Song seemed to be aware of Tang Yin's suspicion of Zhu Hao. It was said that the biggest beneficiary of the fire seemed to be Zhu Hao.
But in the end, it was verified that it had nothing to do with Zhu Hao.
"Mr. Lu, in fact, when Zhu Hao was saving people from the fire, he rushed out covered in fire... It could be said that he had a narrow escape. Zhu Hao comes from a loyal family. The palace has put aside the past grudges and sincerely accepted him. However, it still begs Mr. Lu not to associate him with the Zhu family.
Just spread the word about it to the outside world and let him study with peace of mind."
Lu Song was speaking for Zhu Hao.
Years ago, he and Zhu Hao were both undercover agents, but now Zhu Hao has cleared his identity as an undercover agent. Unfortunately, his identity as a spy, Lu Song, remains the same.
Digging a hole for Zhu Hao and putting Zhu Hao on the opposite side would be harmful to Lu Song but not beneficial at all.
