The group walked through the corridor outside the west courtyard and came to the west corner gate of the inner palace of Prince Xing's Mansion. After entering, there was a long corridor. The door at the end of the corridor led to the main hall of the palace, and there was a four-month gate on the west side. After entering, there were several
The courtyards are all in the layout of a quadrangle.
He walked straight to the last courtyard. There were guards guarding the door. Lu Song said hello to the guards and then brought the three little ones in.
"Wait here, don't go anywhere."
After Lu Song explained, he went out, apparently to welcome Jiao Xi and the Crown Prince.
But Zhu Hao speculated that Zhu Houcong would not appear here for the time being. Since the palace was on guard against him, there was a high probability that Zhu San would pretend to be the prince of the palace and continue to paralyze the Jin Yiwei spies who were lurking in the palace to spy on intelligence.
Zhu Hao asked: "Lu Bing, do you usually study here?"
Lu Bing didn't have any scheming and said it bluntly: "Not all here, sometimes in the library..."
Zhu Hao nodded, roughly knowing in his mind that because there were companions studying in the palace, Zhu San and Zhu Si might be temporarily taught separately.
The real crown prince, Zhu Houcong, was closely protected, while Zhu San acted as cannon fodder, appearing anywhere in the palace at will to fully attract outside firepower.
Jinghong came to a desk in the room, took out the book from his schoolbag, and started to recite the article while shaking his head. He looked like a "good student" at first sight.
Zhu Hao, like Lu Bing, stayed outside in the yard.
Lu Bing asked around, and the most asked questions were about the revolving lanterns that had been buried in the flames. He wanted Zhu Hao to bring a few more revolving lanterns to the palace.
But what Lu Bing didn't know was that this gadget had been banned from being brought in by the palace. Lu Song warned Zhu Hao that except for lighting a lamp at night, he was not allowed to touch open flames at other times.
Even if Zhu Hao wanted to use saltpeter to make ice in the future, he would be in great trouble. After the fire, the palace became more wary of him.
…
…
After waiting for a long time, Zhu San finally came.
Zhu San was still dressed as a boy. When he saw Zhu Hao, he grinned and showed his white teeth: "Zhu Hao, are you not dead?"
This special way of greeting even Jinghong, who was studying in the library, couldn't help but look askance. The prince doesn't understand the ways of the world? How can greeting people... be the same as cursing them to die early?
Zhu Hao sighed: "If you are destined to die, you will not succeed in death. This is called surviving a catastrophe, but you will be lucky in the future."
Zhu San spat: "Surviving a catastrophe must lead to blessings later on. I think it's good people who don't live long, and disasters stay for thousands of years...A Bing, go inside and bring me a chair."
When Lu Bing heard Zhu San call him "A Bing", he felt dissatisfied but did not dare to say anything. He went straight to the entrance hall to move a chair. Jing Hong's voice came from the room: "Sir, he is coming soon. Hurry up and review your homework!"
Zhu San smiled and joked: "Xiao Jingzi, you still love to study so much, but you don't have to show it to me. Mr. Sui won't come today, let us review our homework by ourselves... If no one else comes, how can we study hard?
Let’s talk about it after we get here…”
For children, without a teacher watching over them, of course they have to find opportunities to play.
Zhu San is just a little girl, she will be a princess when she is born. As long as the dynasty does not overthrow, she will have enough food and clothing for the rest of her life. Why study so many poems and articles?
The palace put all educational resources on Zhu Si. Now the courtyard has a fake prince plus Lu Bing, who is equivalent to the family's son. There are also two companions recruited from outside. The palace just asks the gentleman to teach him anything.
Do you really need to ask famous teachers to take turns tutoring you?
Think too much!
Zhu San only thought that Sui Gongyan had something to do, but Zhu Hao knew that Sui Gongyan was probably teaching Zhu Si knowledge, and a few young people were left to their own devices.
"Hey, Zhu Hao, do you still have ice cream now? I've been thinking about that wonderful taste these days...it's so delicious."
Zhu San looked at Zhu Hao eagerly.
Originally, Jinghong and Lu Bing were very curious as to why Zhu San was not angry with them, but was so kind to Zhu Hao. It turned out that they had something to ask for.
Ice cream?
Something to eat?
With such good conditions in the palace, the dignified prince actually asked Zhu Hao for food? Can the prince eat food of unknown origin?
Jinghong was full of doubts. Originally he was still studying seriously, but because of the conversation between Zhu Hao and Zhu San, he put down the book and listened to the conversation outside.
Zhu Hao said: "That fire burned down all my belongings... You know the conditions of my family. We can only wait until we go back to raise materials. It will take some time."
Zhu San looked regretful: "It's all my brother's fault. If it hadn't been for him... Oh! Forget it, let's not talk about it."
The conversation between the two seemed simple, but it contained a lot of information. Jinghong kept it all in mind, especially when Zhu San mentioned that she had a younger brother. Jinghong was surprised because his father said that King Xing
There is only one son, why are they two brothers?
Who is the younger brother mentioned by the prince?
Jinghong seemed to be studying in the palace, but he was actually here to gather information, but he was not gathering information for Jin Yiwei, but to help his father.
Jing Zhongkuan was good at flattering officials. After arriving in Anlu, he tried his best to curry favor with the king and sent his son to the palace as a companion. The purpose was also to get close to the prince, and to ask his son to inquire about the situation in the palace, and then tell him the whole story.
Jing Zhongkuan has plans for the future.
For the Jing family, approaching Prince Xing's Mansion was a bold political investment.
To a certain extent, Jinghong and Zhu Hao had the same purpose of entering the palace, which was to rely on their good relationship with Prince Xing's palace to compete for the "contribution to the dragon" in the future.
"Where's Zhu Si?"
Zhu Hao asked.
Zhu Santan spread his hands and said: "I don't know. Mr. Yuan has been very nervous these past two days. He always calls him away alone. Speaking of which, I have only seen that kid twice...Zhu Hao, what else do you have fun with?"
Things? How about... let's go out of the palace to catch rabbits together?"
Zhu San knew that Sui Gongyan might not be able to come that day, so he thought about escaping from the palace and letting Zhu Hao, a local child from Anlu, take her around to play. It would be best if she could go out to catch rabbits like last time.
Although it was dangerous at the time, looking back now...it was probably the happiest day in her life.
Zhu Haodao: "On the first day I came to the palace as a companion, I sneaked out of the palace with you... Do you want me to be kicked out early?"
Zhu San wrinkled his nose and said: "You are a stingy man. In order to study for yourself, you ignore the loyalty of your friends... Humph, I look down on you... Let's go, let's go, A Bing, let's go inside and play with little Jingzi."
Zhu San got angry and walked to the classroom with Lu Bing, who had just brought a stool from the room and was standing there blankly.
The Jinghong people inside were almost dumbfounded.
Didn't it mean that Zhu Hao had already entered the palace a long time ago? Why did he say that he was a companion on the first day? What else is there to catch rabbits... If Zhu Hao had been here as a companion for a long time and was so familiar with Zhu San that it was easy to understand, but
This is obviously contrary to Zhu Hao's statement, so how did they know each other?
…
…
Zhu San, Lu Bing and Zhu Hao entered the room one after another and each took out their books and the Four Treasures of the Study.
There are six tables inside, four of which are obviously new. The desk is very low and there are no chairs. You can only sit on the futon and read and write.
After Zhu Hao came in, the two tables in front were already occupied by Jinghong and Zhu San. Lu Bing sat in the second row. He went to the last row and sat down without thinking.
Zhu San turned back to look at him: "Hey, you can come to the front... Abing, sit behind Xiao Jingzi. Zhu Hao will take your seat."
She was scornful towards Zhu Hao before, but in the blink of an eye, Zhu San actually invited Zhu Hao to sit behind her.
Lu Bing stood up reluctantly and was about to pack his things, but he heard Zhu Hao say: "No, I'm very nice here."
"I can't even hear what the gentleman said..."
Zhu San was just trying to scare Zhu Hao. The room was not big, and there was no blackboard these days. There was no need to copy. It would be different where you sit.
What's more, Zhu Hao said he was studying in the prince's palace, but he was actually looking for a way to get close to Zhu Houcong and get a chance to rise to prominence.
But this is not 100% reliable. Maybe because of the butterfly effect caused by his time travel, Zhu Houzhao had an heir. Or maybe Zhengde figured out that day to find an adopted son from the vassal king... Or perhaps Zhu Houzhao did not show up a few years later.
Even though he died young and lived to be 70 or 80 years old, Zhu Houcong still couldn't become emperor...
Therefore, what Zhu Hao hopes most is to find a reasonable source for his talents. With his resume of studying in Prince Xing's Mansion, he will have a reason to participate in the imperial examination in the future.
It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others!
But right now...
The sun is shining in the sky, and the flowers are smiling at me...
I'm so sleepy, it's more important to get some sleep first.
Just when Zhu San was taking Jinghong to boil the pot, Zhu Hao was already lying on the table and fast asleep, and soon fell asleep.
Zhu Haozhen may not be able to fall asleep so quickly at night, but for some reason, the classroom environment gave him a familiar and comfortable feeling. It was like such a beautiful morning, with Hexi's sunshine shining on the table. If he hadn't fallen asleep at his desk,
As soon as he wakes up, he will live up to his rebirth as a human being.
…
…
Zhu Hao slept soundly.
Suddenly he felt something moving on his nose, and before he opened his eyes, he heard laughter.
You don't need to think about it to know that Zhu San is playing a trick on him.
"Is this interesting?"
Zhu Hao asked dissatisfiedly with his eyes closed.
Zhu San smiled and said: "Zhu Hao, how sleepy are you... You didn't sleep last night, okay? Get up and let the sun bask in your butt!"
Zhu Hao frowned.
It sounds normal, but why is it so weird coming from a little girl? You are the princess, don’t you know how to be reserved at all?
Confucius said: Do not see what is not propriety, do not hear what is not propriety, do not speak what is not propriety, do not move what is not propriety.
Zhu Hao straightened up and opened his eyes, only to see that Zhu San had moved her futon to his desk and was sitting opposite, smiling playfully, holding the desk in one hand and holding a straw stick in the other. As for Jing Hong and Lu Bing
He looked at the two of them as if they were monsters, and really couldn't understand the bad taste of Zhu Hao and Zhu San.
Zhu Hao looked at the three-pole sun outside and realized that he had slept for a long time.
This shows that Zhu San still gave himself some face and slept soundly, and it took a long time for her to come to cause trouble.
"When will sir come?"
Zhu Hao asked casually.
Zhu San pursed his lips: "Didn't I say before that my husband won't come? Why don't you believe it? Humph, you only care about sleeping alone and don't care about others... It's so boring. Why don't we go out and play Cuju?"
Zhu Hao rolled his eyes: "Don't you all know how to study? You only know how to play."
The three children all looked over, their eyes strange.
It's obviously you who doesn't study and just sleeps soundly. Then when you wake up, you teach us that we don't like studying?
"Forget it, sir, if you don't come, let me teach you... In this way, you can come with me to order a blackboard. It will be very useful for teaching."
Zhu Hao came up with his own solution.
Zhu San chuckled and said, "Just you?"
Zhu Hao made a serious face: "Do you want to listen to Mr. Zhu's teaching?"
"listen!"
Zhu San agreed without thinking, "What is that blackboard you are talking about? Is it fun?"
