[Ming Dynasty] I seem to know too much

When Jiao Shizhi returned to the East Palace, Zhu Houzhao gave him a big surprise.

When he went back, no one could be found in the main hall, it was Lehua who told him that His Highness was in the study.Jiao Shizhi asked if the prince had eaten, and then went to the study to find the prince.

When he dug the prince out of the study, the prince even had two "mustaches" on his face, which happened to be very symmetrical on one left and one right.Jiao Shizhi looked at the prince amusedly, and asked softly, "What's wrong, Your Highness, you haven't eaten at this time."

Zhu Houzhao looked up in amazement and found that it was indeed dark.He rubbed his nose, not wanting to smear the wet ink on his hand, he smiled and said to Jiao Shizhi without realizing it: "Mr. I haven't seen your portrait, look, do you look like it?"

It was only then that Jiao Shizhi noticed the painting behind the prince. The person in the painting was dressed in red, wearing a flute instead of a sword, and was dancing under the peach tree, among the soft and beautiful petals.

Jiao Shizhi was silent for a few breaths, his words were softer, and he said softly: "Your Highness, you really look alike." He couldn't say anything wrong, the pictures drawn by the prince were naturally imagined by himself, and he never boasted. I don't know how to use a flute, but there is a seven-point similarity in the three-point appearance.Handwriting can express the mood of the person who wrote it at that time, and so can painting.In this painting, Jiao Shizhi only feels the light and lively atmosphere, which is very comfortable.

Zhu Houzhao's smug little eyes flew up, and then he put down the brush carefully, took his sleeves casually, and walked out the door, "Actually, I drew several pictures before this, including the father, the queen and the queen, all of which were placed on the The grid on the left has gone." He pointed casually, and was about to step forward with one foot.

Jiao Shizhi grabbed him in time, led him to the shelf next to him, and led him to look at the bronze mirror.Zhu Houzhao frowned at himself in the mirror with a messy face, then plunged into the water and washed it thoroughly several times, and said gruntingly, "It's good for you!"

"Your Highness, the humble position did not lead you outside." Jiao Shizhi said with a smile.

Zhu Houzhao pouted.

After dinner, Zhu Houzhao asked someone to go to Kunning Palace with the things he had painted today. The emperor and empress have deep feelings. According to the usual practice, Emperor Hongzhi should be there now.

This little monkey came over on his own initiative, and Empress Zhang was really surprised. She waved to her son, "You are so good today, do you know to come to see the mother?" Zhu Houzhao retorted softly, "The mother, the son obviously comes every day to see you."

"Okay, what's the matter here now? I think you seem to have lost weight in the past two days. Is it because you are still not feeling well, or have you not eaten?" Queen Zhang caught the prince chattering, and the prince was overwhelmed, and said quickly: "Queen, I'm here to give you something."

He hurriedly signaled Jiao Shizhi to show Queen Zhang what he had brought in.Feeling the prince's obviously impatient appearance, Jiao Shizhi felt amused in his heart. His Highness the prince was so childish in front of the queen, as if he had no burden.He had also experienced this feeling around Gong Shi.

Half an hour later, the prince came out of the Kunning Palace with a face of relief, and within a quarter of an hour after he entered the Kunning Palace, Emperor Hongzhi came over.The emperor and the empress rubbed the prince, which made him unable to escape. He was tossed for half an hour, and he couldn't bear the pain.

"Shizhi, you're still laughing!" Zhu Houzhao found Jiao Shizhi a traitor with a face of accusation.Jiao Shiyi said with a serious face: "Your Highness, this is a normal and polite smile."

Zhu Houzhao: ...

This was the first time in his history that he was so choked by Jiao Shizhi that he couldn't speak.

"Hahahaha——" He suddenly laughed loudly, actually very happy.

"Great." He pulled Jiao Shizhi forward happily, and said slyly, "I knew that Shizhi had unlimited potential, and he wouldn't be such a boring person."

Jiao Shizhi shook his head and said gently: "Well, Your Highness, a humble position cannot support your praise. The emperor and queen only care about you, so they communicate with you like this."

"I naturally know that they care about me, but you are still a little soft-hearted, and you don't always think of people so badly." Zhu Houzhao sighed, and instead educated Jiao Shizhi. He didn't know it just by listening to his tone Thought he was too old.

"Believe it or not, if I didn't come to see my father and queen today, tomorrow, no, tonight you will be quietly read a book?" Zhu Houzhao said slowly.

Jiao Shi was silent.

The servants behind the two of them are far away, and the ones who opened the way in front are also far away, no one can hear them talking.

"I am the only son of my father. Every move around me will be broken down into countless meanings. There are always people who are eager to guess my thoughts through these things. My closeness to you is not always a good thing."

Jiao Shizhi knew it well, but felt helpless.But if it is only rumored that the prince painted for him with his own handwriting, or even more rumors about something, it must be adding bricks and tiles to his shaky reputation.

"...Your Highness, aren't you afraid that this trust is not entrusted to someone else?" Jiao Shizhi sighed, it's not that he doesn't care, the prince has already solved the problem with the most satisfactory means.

"Believe in the wrong person?" Zhu Houzhao looked at Jiao Shizhi with his head tilted, and suddenly showed a gentle smile, "Of course I will get it back every penny!" The sharp contrast between the smiles made Jiao Shizhi suddenly startled.

"That's the best." Jiao Shizhi ignored the chill on his body, said calmly, and sincerely hoped so.

That night, Zhu Houzhao didn't inquire about Jiao Shi's situation. After returning to the East Palace, he played a few games of chess with Jiao Shi, and then went to bed early to rest.

Jiao Shizhi returned to the room, remembering the amazing feeling when he saw the prince painting earlier, he couldn't help smiling, it's not that His Highness can't do it, it's just that he doesn't want to do it.

I still remember that a few months ago the prince swore to a certain tutor: He swore that he had no talent for painting, and if he was forced to paint, he would fetch water.The old gentleman was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, but he had nothing to do with the prince.

He wiped his body in a hurry, but he didn't go to bed to rest afterwards. Instead, he wandered around the study for a while and found a certain book in his memory.He remembered that this book mentioned some things about Jinyiwei. Now that he has joined Jinyiwei, he naturally needs to know more about it.

Jiao Shizhi's one-day trip today was not very smooth. According to the usual practice, at least the deputy Qianhu had to show his face in front of everyone in the guard. This was originally a very normal thing.

However, Jiao Shizhi's young face and half-year-old figure are not convincing to the people below, and they all speculate on where the relationship is.Xue Kun didn't make him stand up, but he was given a lot of clerical work, and it seemed that he was going to be responsible for writing notebooks and sorting out materials from now on.

As the head of the seven neighboring schools, the upper middle school has relatively many things to do.The scrolls alone are piled up in a yard, and there are special people sorting them out.Jiao Shizhi wandered around inside and found many case records.This is only one of the fourteen guards. If it is Beizhen Fusi or a more finely divided East and West Institute, I don't know how many case scrolls there are.

If Jiao Shizhi only wanted to live a comfortable life, this would be a good start.

However, this is only if.

The candlelight is dim in the middle of the night, and there is a "cracking" sound from time to time, which means that the candle wicks are melting together.Jiao Shizhi closed the book with another "pop", then blew out the candle, walked straight to the bedroom in the dark, and turned on the bed.

In the darkness, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

All he needs now is an opportunity, a... suitable opportunity.Before that, it was not a bad thing to do clerical work, but it could make him familiar with the daily affairs of the guard as soon as possible, as well as the contacts.

Jiao Shizhi then settled down in the upper middle school. He rode a horse to Dian Mao calmly on weekdays, then sorted out the materials in the upper middle school, and went back leisurely when the time came. Those who waited and watched began to feel that he was a restrained person. Cowardly people are not to be feared.

Only Xue Kun felt that something was wrong. You must know that Jiao Shizhi actually approached him in various ways every day, and every time there was a serious reason, so he couldn't even refuse!Qianhu couldn't mobilize him when there was nothing serious, and he usually hoped that nothing would happen, but after a short period of tossing, Xue Kun wished that something big would happen right now, so that he could float outside quickly.

Jiao Shizhi's question was full of strange things, but it was not an easy question to answer.He came to Xue Kun with the appearance of studying and asking questions, but Xue Kun couldn't avoid it.No, it should be said that he avoided seeing it, but failed.Because he is the one who can persevere and stand outside the door for two hours!If it weren't for Qianhu not being allowed to leave the guardhouse without permission, he would have gone out of hiding.

"My lord Qianhu, I have some doubts, and I hope you can clear up my doubts..." Jiao Shizhi's voice came from outside, and Xue Kun, who was hiding in the room, wailed, opened the door and looked at Jiao Shi collapsed. In other words, "What materials do you need, can't the warehouse satisfy you?"

Jiao Shizhi, who came to Xue Kun with two scrolls in his arms, blinked and said seriously: "It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Don't just go into the eyes of books. Lord Qianhu, don't become a nerd. "

Xue Kun wanted to growl.

Master Xue Kun is unhappy again today.
