In the next few days, Zhu Hao and his siblings met again.
This time he was prepared. Although he didn't bring the rabbit into the palace, he made ice cream again, two small bowls... You can't let two children eat enough at one time. Try something new and you will remember to come again in the future.
Zhu Hao originally wanted to put some croton or other medicine in Zhu San's ice cream so that she would not interfere with her plans for the coming day, but after thinking about it he gave up.
If the siblings come together next time, then they will put them down together.
Zhu Hao specifically mentioned it to Zhu Si: "Tomorrow, you can think of a way to distract your brother and come alone. I have prepared something good for you, which is much prettier than a revolving lantern."
When Zhu Si heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, but he was quickly pulled away by his sister.
In the afternoon, Zhu Hao drew a cross with charcoal at the place agreed with Lu Song, and waited quietly for Lu Song to come to the appointment.
It is best to have Lu Song cooperate with you when planning for the coming day.
If Lu Song didn't come, it wouldn't be impossible to implement, but it would be a bit too complicated for a child like him. The most important thing was that he couldn't make Jian Maoluo and others suspicious.
At night, Lu Song finally came.
"Master Zhu, I have inquired about your background... It is indeed as you said. You have a bad relationship with the Zhu family. My father died for the country, leaving only your flesh and blood. There is really no need for you to enter the palace and risk yourself."
.”
Lu Song was a kind-hearted person, and when he learned that Zhu Hao's father, like him, was a member of the Imperial Guard and died heroically for his country, he naturally developed sympathy and compassion.
Zhu Hao said: "Lu Dianzhan, you are too worried. If I leave the palace now, will I have a good life? If the Zhu family takes me back, the property left by my father will be embezzled by the family."
A child told the secrets of the family's internal strife in a serious manner. Lu Song felt that the other child was too premature, so he had no intention of commenting on the internal affairs of the Zhu family.
"Lu Dianzhan, I specially invited you here this time because I want you to do me a favor and invite Jian Maoluo and the other craftsmen for a drink tomorrow, please." Zhu Hao said.
Lu Song originally thought that Zhu Hao had something important to do. When he heard this request, he couldn't help but look at Zhu Hao with a puzzled look on his face.
Zhu Hao explained: "Talking the truth while drunk... I want to use Lu Dianzhan to help me get Jianmao Dao and others drunk to see if they really want to get rid of me and how they will do it... With Lu Dianzhan
They shouldn't hide Zhan's identity from you... If Lu Dianzhan feels it's inconvenient to come forward, he can ask someone else to do it for him, it's just wine money."
With that said, Zhu Hao took out two taels of silver.
Although this amount of money is not much, it can buy a lot of drinks and delicacies.
Lu Song was very surprised that a child took out two taels of silver at a time. Before the silver from Zhengde Dynasty and South America flowed into the Ming Dynasty in large quantities, the value of silver was very high. In terms of actual purchasing power, it was the same as that of later generations in the early 21st century.
One hundred yuan is about the same, and the currency value dropped rapidly during the Wanli period, but one tael of silver is equivalent to more than two hundred yuan, which is really not a small amount.
Lu Song had doubts about Zhu Hao's statement. After thinking about it carefully, he couldn't figure it out. He had to ask for confirmation: "You made them drunk just to find out from them their evil intentions against you?"
Zhu Hao nodded: "Lu Dianzhan, you heard it with your own ears when they discussed how to kill me that day. I want to know if they really have murderous intentions... If faced with a life and death threat, I think I will follow your advice.
, left Prince Xing’s Mansion and no longer paid attention to the affairs of the Prince’s Mansion.”
Zhu Hao's reasons are impeccable.
Lu Song thought about it seriously, why: "If I invite them to drink, they may not keep the appointment. What happened last time..."
Zhu Hao said with a smile: "If Lu Dianzhan invited them to drink because he said he wanted to apologize, would they not appreciate it? I also know that this would make Lu Dianzhan lose face. If there is any leftover money to buy wine and food, treat it as my invitation.
Lu Dianzhan was drinking."
It sounds good to invite Jian Mao Dao and others to drink as an apology. After all, Jian Mao Dao didn't get a stick last time. It makes perfect sense for Dian Zhan, the Palace Guard's Chief of Ceremonies, to get acquainted with the palace craftsmen and drink together.
Lu Song originally felt that Zhu Hao owed him a favor by helping Zhu Hao teach those craftsmen with evil intentions, so he stopped being polite and took the two taels of silver.
"It's okay to invite them to drink, but you may not be able to get much information. Hou Chun, who is behind Jian Mao Dao, has a close relationship with Yuan Changshi, and they also follow orders..."
This indirectly told Zhu Hao that Yuan Zonggao had actually been wary of him for a long time, but the people below understood his intention and solved Zhu Hao's trouble.
Zhu Hao said: "It's up to people to plan things, and it's up to God to make things happen. As long as we can determine the severity of their attacks, that's enough. I'll bother Lu Dianzhan."
…
…
Lu Song originally thought that Zhu Hao had something important to tell him involving the Zhu family and even the Jin Yiwei, but unexpectedly he just asked him to come forward and invite Jian Mao Dao and others to drink.
After Lu Song returned home, he thought about it again and again, thinking that the Zhu family wanted to know the real attitude of the palace.
From this, he made up his mind that even if Jian Maoluo and others had no intention of killing Zhu Hao, he would still scare Zhu Hao away with scaremongering.
Such a little guy who knows him well and is an undercover agent stays in the palace. He likes to contact him if anything happens, just in case he is discovered...
All in all, he is a dangerous person. Even if Jian Maoluo and others do not take action, he cannot let Zhu Hao stay in the palace for a long time.
After Zhu Hao sent Lu Song away, he didn't rest and continued to climb to the roof to watch the stars as before.
What Zhu Hao didn't tell Lu Song was that the reason why he invited Jian Maoluo and others to drink was because when these people got drunk, they would run outside and urinate in the passage without any scruples, so that he could carry out his next plan.
"In order to successfully become a companion reader, I can only take a risk. This fire must be set off tomorrow!"
…
…
The plan went smoothly.
In the morning, Zhu Hao made some arrangements in his room.
When setting a fire, the most important thing is that the flames should not be too big or jump too fiercely. The fire needs to be controlled within a very small area in advance and cannot spread quickly. It is best to make the smoke larger. These need to be planned in advance.
Near noon, Zhu Hao saw Lu Song and two guards carrying two large jars of wine into the kitchen yard.
Zhu Hao thought that Lu Song was too sincere. He would give him two taels of silver and buy some wine to get a few of the sharp men drunk. Could these two large jars of wine be meant to get all the craftsmen drunk?
Not caring about anything else for a while, Zhu Hao went back to prepare the ice cream and chilled sour plum soup, hung up all the revolving lanterns, and the shadow puppet carving paper he bought from the market... the paper was carefully made by craftsmen.
, the portraits above are all hollowed out and colored, making them vivid.
After preparing everything, Zhu Hao came out of the yard.
He had to hide first and create evidence of alibi. Although Zhu Si would miss the mark when he came, he would definitely be attracted by the gadgets he prepared.
Zhu Hao had mixed the powder of datura and tangerine into the ice cream and chilled sour plum soup. The dose was not large, but it could hold the person down for a while without any problem.
Zhu Hao waited outside for a long time. The most important part of the plan was that Zhu Side would come.
It would be okay if Zhu Si and Zhu San came together, but at worst they would be knocked down together. But if they don't come, then all their efforts will be wasted and they will have to wait for the next opportunity, then let Lu Song invite those craftsmen to drink?
Whether Lu Song is willing to do it or not is another matter, he will have to spend more money...
If it goes on for a long time, if the people in the palace find that Zhu San and Zhu Si are running towards him and block the way...then all the previous efforts will be in vain.
This is also the reason why Zhu Hao started hastily.
He was just thinking about something when he saw Zhu Si jumping up and running. Zhu Hao looked carefully and saw that Zhu San and Lu Bing were not following.
Watching Zhu Si enter the courtyard, Zhu Hao's plan was officially implemented.
…
…
In the kitchen courtyard of the East Cross Courtyard, a banquet was going on at this time.
Lu Song specially invited Jian Maolu and others to a banquet.
Hou Chun didn't come, but Li Shun was there, along with the three people who were beaten last time and the craftsmen on duty today.
After a few days of recuperation, the three people who were beaten were in better health. Lu Song excused himself and invited him to drink, which was to show that the report had nothing to do with him... His previous actions were purely helpless and he was acting under instructions from his superiors.
If he hadn't been caught by Lin Baihu, Lu Song would have forgotten his family mission and never picked up his father's errands, let alone being frightened all day long.
He knew in his heart that if he did not follow Lin Baihu's instructions to investigate the palace's intelligence and allowed his identity to be leaked, he would be a human being inside and out, and would not be able to gain a foothold in Prince Xing's palace.
At the banquet, Lu Song drank a few more drinks without knowing it.
Jian Mao Dao was originally Hou Chun's first horse, and he usually didn't even take Li Shun seriously. He shouted at the wine table: "If you have anything to do in the future, just tell me. The window at home is broken, or you need to repair the door or something."
We'll be here to help as soon as possible. We have all the materials in the warehouse, so you can have as much as you want."
It was an indirect admission that he was also involved in the loss of materials from the palace's warehouse for no reason.
Lu Song secretly sighed and invited them to drink just to get them to help with carpentry work?
When he was about to ask the kitchen to add another dish, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. After thinking for a long time, Lu Song suddenly realized that Zhu Hao did not come to the kitchen to eat at noon today.
Lu Songxin said: "They are talking freely and yelling. You want to know if they want to kill you. Why don't you come and eavesdrop on it yourself... Is it because they are afraid of coming in person? These people are shy and refuse to tell?"
Lu Song was about to ask Jian Mao Dao what their impression of Zhu Hao was and what their plans were next, when he saw Jian Mao Dao stood up unsteadily and walked towards the door.
"he……"
Lu Song pointed and wanted to chase it back in person.
Daxi on the side gave him a hand: "Lao Lu, don't worry about him, he just went out to have fun."
"Have fun?"
Lu Song didn't know what was going on.
Lao Song, who was drinking with his deskmate, said drunkenly: "I just went to pee."
"If you can't go to the toilet to pee, why run outside? Hey..." Lu Song wanted to call him back, but he was already out the door, and he probably wouldn't look back even if he heard what he said.
"Lu Dianzhan, keep drinking, this wine is really good..."
Lu Song originally thought that things were a little strange, but he was a bit greedy for the wine, and there were people around him trying to persuade him to drink, so he couldn't care about anything else and decided to wait until Jian Mao Dao came back and ask him how to deal with Zhu Hao.
…
…
At this time, Zhu Hao had already entered the courtyard once.
He was afraid that Zhu Si didn't eat ice cream and sour plum soup and passed out.
After confirming that Zhu Si had fallen down and seeing the revolving lantern next to the opponent's little head, Zhu Hao nodded. This meant that when Zhu Si arrived, he found that he was not there. There was delicious food next to him and he didn't care about anything else.
While eating ice cream and drinking sour plum soup, we took off the revolving lantern, uncovered it, lit the candles and started playing.
Soon, the little guy fell asleep lying on the Eight Immortals Table due to the effects of the medicine.
A group of craftsmen were drinking in the kitchen, and naturally no one was paying attention to the warehouse. This was another reason why Zhu Hao asked Lu Song to invite the group of people to drink...as much as possible to prevent anyone from coming to the warehouse and ruining his plan.
