When the carriage was halfway, Zhu Hao got out of his own carriage and got into Lou Suzhen's carriage.
During the boat trip, Lou Suzhen didn't even have a maid to serve her. She took care of herself. Fortunately, she was a rare outstanding female representative of this era. Even if she left her hometown and traveled alone by boat, there wouldn't be much inconvenience.
It was Zhu Hao who purchased enough things in advance, even many "epoch-making" women's products, which provided Lou Suzhen with a lot of convenience along the way.
"Madam, I am about to see Mr. Tang. I must ask for your opinion...will you go north to the capital with us, or stay in Anlu and wait for news?"
Zhu Hao let Lou Suzhen make her own choice.
On the way back, Zhu Hao didn't mention much about Tang Yin. Lou Suzhen only thought that Tang Yin saved her. She certainly didn't expect that Tang Yin, who wrote the letter, didn't know anything about it.
Lou Suzhen said: "I will obey Mr. Tang's arrangements in everything."
Zhu Hao nodded and said: "Then let's go north together..."
Lou Suzhen looked at Zhu Hao curiously, full of doubts. Didn't you hear what I said? I said I listened to Mr. Tang, but why did you go so far as to do it for me and make your own decision to go north together?
Zhu Hao was embarrassed to say, you listen to Tang Yin, but Tang Yin listens to me. If I tell you to go north, you must go north. If Tang Yin is confident that he can complete everything by himself, he will not wait until I come back before setting off.
It shows that Tang Yin is full of anxiety now.
"Madam, there are many discerning people in the city, so don't show up, and don't show up to my husband either. After we are on the road, you can reminisce with him... This is not only for your safety, but also for his good.
"
Zhu Hao began to make excuses to prevent Lou Suzhen from taking the initiative to contact Tang Yin.
In fact, Zhu Hao was afraid that Tang Yin's little heart wouldn't be able to accept it for a while... After bringing Princess Ning to Anlu, Tang Yin would go crazy after knowing it?
You are responsible, but my old bones are afraid of going through trouble!
"Um."
Lou Suzhen nodded in agreement.
Zhu Haodao: "Because I have to provide guidance for my wife, I have temporarily made it difficult for my wife to register in the government as a maidservant. When things calm down in the future, I can find a new identity for my wife... This is true whether it is Mr. Tang or Prince Xing's Mansion.
, can be done easily.”
"Um."
Lou Suzhen is not concerned about her identity.
It would be good if she survived, but she is now a "prisoner of the imperial court." If anyone in the government knows that she is safe and sound, everyone involved in this matter will not end well.
After Zhu Hao said this, he did not immediately get off the carriage and return to his car. After a while, he saw Tang Yin.
…
…
City gate.
Tang Yin waited anxiously. As Zhu Hao expected, he really didn't have the confidence to rush to the capital alone to assist King Xiaoxing, so he could only drag Zhu Hao along with him.
When he saw Lu Song coming back on horseback with two carriages, he didn't bother to say hello to the servants on the side and went straight to greet him.
"Xu..."
Lu Song reined in the horse and jumped off the horse.
Zhu Hao opened the car curtain slightly to block Lou Suzhen inside, looked at Tang Yin with a smile, and asked: "Sir, are you okay?"
Tang Yin said angrily: "It's not a separation of life and death. You are just going to take the provincial examination. With your level, I expect there will be no problem..."
Zhu Hao discovered that Lou Suzhen's body shook violently when she heard Tang Yin's voice. How depressed was Tang Yin when he sent Tang Yin away?
But now she came to Tang Yin in embarrassment...
It feels like a world away!
She was even more excited when she heard the voice of a familiar person. It seemed that the only person in the world who could help her was Tang Yin, the only "relative" she could rely on at the moment.
But soon Lou Suzhen turned her head and looked at Zhu Hao. Through the conversation between Tang Yin and Zhu Hao, she discovered that the relationship between the two in front of her was not that of an ordinary teacher and student, but rather...
She really couldn't describe that feeling.
In order to prevent Lou Suzhen from showing up, Zhu Hao directly lifted the car curtain and jumped out.
"Prince Ning's rebellion is exactly what you said..."
When Tang Yin saw Zhu Hao, he immediately talked about the dramatic changes in Jiangxi.
Zhu Hao quickly extended his hand to interrupt and said: "We will talk about the matter about Prince Ning's Mansion on the way into the city."
Tang Yin thought for a while and realized that the city gate was indeed not the place to talk, but he found that Lu Song's eyes were very complicated. He couldn't think about what was wrong for a moment, and sighed: "The prince was sent by the royal horse supervisor yesterday.
Eunuch Qiu Ju took him to the capital, and Luo Dianzhan accompanied him. Before the prince left, he asked you to go and accompany him. If I take the initiative to invite you, you and I will go north immediately without caring about anything else."
Zhu Hao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Sir, you are really...I don't know what to say about you. You are alone and don't know the joys and sorrows of others, right? I'm going north with you, don't I need to say hello to my family? My son suddenly disappeared, you
How anxious must my mother be? And... Lu Dianzhan doesn’t need to go back and report the situation to the palace? "
"this……"
Only then did Tang Yin realize that he was Meng Lang.
As Zhu Hao said, he is alone. He is just a guest in a foreign land in Anlu. He doesn't have much belongings. He can prepare a carriage and go wherever he wants to go... The problem is that Zhu Hao has a mother and family. How can he come back from taking exams in the provincial capital?
Shouldn't you say hello to your family?
"and you……"
Tang Yin really wanted to ask, when will we set off? He wanted to urge him, but he thought that Zhu Hao was exhausted physically and mentally when he came back from a long trip, so it wouldn't be a big deal even if he rested for a few days before leaving.
If you push yourself too hard, you will appear too unkind.
Zhu Hao said: "Well, how about I go into the city and say hello to my family and hit the road today?"
Tang Yin did not expect Zhu Hao to be so "easy to talk to". He just went to the city to inform his family about his whereabouts. This request was not excessive at all.
"Then I'll go with you so that you can explain it to your mother-in-law."
What Tang Yin was thinking was that after Zhu Hao returned and directly said that he wanted to go north to the capital, could Zhu Niang let him go?
If he, the husband, goes with him and is told that it is a task assigned by the palace, will Madam Zhu dare to dismiss it easily?
Besides, with Zhu Hao's level, passing the provincial examination is a sure thing. Maybe after going to the capital, he can directly prepare for the national examination. In this case, Zhu Niang might let him go.
But that’s just maybe!
Tang Yin was not confident that he could persuade Zhu Niang.
"Sir, don't worry. Don't talk about the mission of Xingwangfu. Just say that you will take me on a study tour. This will make my mother more at ease than other reasons."
Zhu Hao even thought of the reasons to explain to his mother.
Tell Zhu Niang that we are going to the capital to carry out a very dangerous mission?
It’s strange that Zhu Niang can let people go!
Zhu Niang was worried about going on a study tour, but with Tang Yin present, she was too embarrassed to refuse.
…
…
After entering the city, Lu Song still rode on horseback, Zhu Hao rode with Tang Yin, and Tang Yin's own carriage stayed outside the city.
It means that after saying hello, the old and the young will go on their way.
"...I never thought that King Ning's army would be so vulnerable. In just one month, it was defeated by Wang Bo'an's troops and horses, and even his family members suffered misfortune."
In the carriage carriage, when Tang Yin said this, his words were full of sadness.
Apparently the news of Lou Suzhen's death has reached Anlu.
Tang Yin knew that the beautiful woman he cared about was dead, and he couldn't do anything else except feel sad, as if everything in the past could only be a memory.
Zhu Hao said: "Sir, I bought a maid when I was in Wuchang Mansion."
"Girl?"
Tang Yin couldn't keep up with Zhu Hao's rhythm.
I told you about Prince Ning, but you told me about buying a maid?
Does it have anything to do with me whether you buy the maid or not?
Zhu Hao changed the topic again: "You and I will go to my house to meet my mother. Then we will go to the palace again. It is best to persuade Lu Dianzhan to go with us so that we can take care of him."
Tang Yin shook his head: "I don't want to have anything to do with Prince Xing's Mansion on the way north."
"Sir, looking forward and backward is not suitable for this place... I understand what you mean. You want to go to the capital in your own name to help the prince, but have you ever thought about how dangerous this journey is?
"Besides, you have never set foot in the capital since you proposed the project, and there are so many people who know you. Do you think it is so easy to meet the prince safely? If Lu Song is here, it will be much easier for us..."
Zhu Hao explained patiently.
Tang Yin said: "Even if what you say is reasonable, the court only allows one Dianzhan to accompany you."
Zhu Hao smiled and said: "It's okay, Lu Dianzhan's situation is different from others."
"Um?"
Tang Yin looked confused and wanted to open the curtain to see Lu Song riding in front, but was stopped by Zhu Hao. When he turned his head, he heard Zhu Hao say leisurely: "There are some things that we will discuss in detail on the way north."
Zhu Hao felt that it was time to inform Tang Yin about Lu Song's identity and his involvement in Jinyi Bathroom.
Tell others, let alone Lu Song, even Zhu Hao is not sure whether it will be leaked.
But after telling Tang Yin, Zhu Hao felt that this cheap teacher would definitely keep the secret.
At this time, the carriage had reached the three-way intersection of the North-South Avenue. Lu Song wanted to return to the palace to find Princess Xing to revive her, so he said goodbye and left. Zhu Hao and Tang Yin went to see Zhu Niang.
…
…
Zhu family residence.
Zhu Niang heard that her son had returned from taking the provincial examination, and she was excited to ask Zhu Hao how he did in the exam. Unexpectedly, Tang Yin spoke first and said that she would take her son out for a study tour. Naturally, she was very reluctant to give up.
"Don't worry, mother, we are going to the capital this time and will visit many famous teachers. If I can pass the provincial examination, I will stay in the capital to take the national examination next spring. If I fail... I will come back!"
"Scholars must have the experience of studying abroad in order to accumulate knowledge. As the saying goes, reading thousands of books will travel thousands of miles... Moreover, I have been studying hard in the past few years and have no chance to go out and see anything. Without these experiences, what would I do in the future?
It’s better to go to school, how can I become an official?”
What Zhu Hao said is one thing after another.
Tang Yin was stunned for a moment.
Zhu Niang's face was relieved, and she pursed her lips and smiled: "You kid, don't always think of reaching the sky in one step. How can it be so easy to pass the exam? But can't you stay at home for a few days before leaving?"
Zhu Hao said: "It will be too late in a few days... It just so happens that King Xing is going to the capital. It has been almost two days since he left. Let's catch up with them and keep up with their team. We can also have someone to take care of him on the way. King Xing... that is
The Crown Prince will soon go to the capital to inherit the throne. I have studied with him for many years, and he will take good care of us on the way."
Tang Yin was very surprised.
Can you say that? You are not going on a dangerous mission, but your love is to receive the favor of Prince Xing’s Mansion to protect our master and apprentice and go on a study tour in the capital together?
When Zhu Hao said the same thing, Zhu Niang accepted it happily.
"Then... go and burn incense for your father first. Along the way... you have to listen to Mr. Tang... you have to write a letter to your family first when you get there... Mom will prepare some clothes for you, mainly winter clothes. Remember to bring more.
pieces..."
