Jing Huai took Rong Shi back to the house, and first reprimanded him for not caring about himself.

The child is poor, and has been rejected by his parents since he was young, but he should not be blindly indulged in education.Some time ago, Rong Shi had just entered Jin'an Duke's mansion and was seriously ill, so he tried his best to follow him in everything.

He figured it was time to teach the boy a lesson, so he closed the door and told him a lot of truth.

At the end, he said earnestly: "You are a smart child, you should know what to do and what not to do."

Rong Shi nodded.He was silent from the beginning to the end, watching Jing Huai's voice rise and fall and say countless words without repetition.Listening means listening carefully, but I don’t know how much I have listened to.

Jing Huai suddenly felt a bit of a headache. He felt that he was not so reclusive when he was a child, which made people feel helpless.

But he couldn't say anything, seeing how the kid listened to the training seriously, you asked him, he just nodded like this, and he understood as you said, how well-behaved he is.He couldn't bear to scold him even more harshly, so he had to give up in the end.

Jing Huai sighed, and called the servants in the mansion to bring in hot soup and dishes.

Back in the study, brothers Zhao Buli and Zhao Buqi were already waiting for the report.

"Is everything done?"

"My son, everything has been done. The new rumors and this abnormal winter thunderstorm have made the people even more terrified. They firmly believe that they have offended the gods. Now the capital of Shangjing hates the absconding son of God very much." Zhao said. Do not forsake the way.

After the younger brother finished speaking, Zhao Buli immediately reported: "It is not yet clear where the original message came from, but the current evidence points to—" He paused, then continued: " Palace."

Jing Huai walked to the window of the study, watching the pouring rain outside and meditating.

After a long while, he waved his hand to make them retreat.

The temple has been in operation for thousands of years, and it is impossible to ignore a son of God.How did the Son of God escape?Jing Huai only thought of two possibilities, one is that the Son of God is a real Son of God with extraordinary power, and the other is that someone is helping him.If the Son of God really has extraordinary power, then the awakening of the God is not far away, but according to the master, it will take at least four years before the day of welcoming the God mentioned by Wei Jiazu Xun.This is slightly less likely.

If it is the second possibility, someone is helping the Son of God to abscond.Then this person must have the same strength as the temple.

The royal family is naturally one of them.

So what is the reason for the royal family to do this?Spreading the rumors of God's Wrath and throwing Shangjing and even the surrounding cities into chaos, what good will it do them?What is their purpose?

Jing Huai frowned in thought.

It rained for three days in a row, and the rain was astonishingly heavy. Some low-lying places in Shangjing had accumulated water without feet.More and more people began to believe in the rumors about God's Wrath, and for a while, people in the capital were panicked.

During this period, there was a rumor spread quietly——to catch the absconding Son of God and send him to the Temple of the Gods to make him repent to the gods would appease the gods' wrath.As a result, the common people became crazy. Whenever they saw a child of the same age, they had to ask the truth, for fear that the absconding Son of God would hide by their side.

Wei Yu, who was hiding in a ruined temple with a group of beggars, no longer dared to show his face, and took advantage of the night to break into the rain and find another place to hide.

Because of his age, Rongshi was kept under watch in the mansion to prevent him from being hurt by the chaos outside after he went out.

"It's all like this, and he can still hide it so tightly. This son of God is so real." Hua Wendeng frowned, "Junior brother, if it rains again, will the backlash you receive be worse?"

Jing Huai suppressed his chaotic blood, and said, "It's okay, he won't be able to hide for a few days. Zhao Buli has already led people to search half of the capital, if he still can't find it in the end, find someone with a similar build to replace him." Yes. It’s not beautiful, but it’s a solution.”

"I think of someone who looks similar to that son of God."

Jing Huai looked up at him.

"The child you brought back from the palace, Mingyu."

Jing Huai shook his head: "No."

"Why?"

"He is not an ordinary person. There are no high-ranking officials in the capital who don't recognize him, and they will be exposed easily, which will cause trouble."

Hua Wendeng didn't know his identity yet, and wondered, "Who?"

Jing Huai smiled slightly and said, "Jiang Shizi."

Hua Wendeng instantly understood, the son of Empress Jiang, the former Crown Prince.

"It turned out to be him." Hua Wendeng was surprised for a moment, and then felt that it should be so, because the child's appearance and temperament are too outstanding, "No wonder, a character like him looks like an ordinary palace man. But you You brought him out of the palace, but the emperor didn't respond, he didn't ask you for someone?"

"The emperor doesn't want him." Jing Huai's expression was gloomy when he spoke, "However, I will send him there soon. The emperor will have to if he doesn't want it."

"Who?" There seemed to be a knocking sound from the porch outside the door. After Hua Wendeng noticed it, he immediately chased after him. After opening the door, there was no one.

He frowned and looked back and forth. At this moment, a cat jumped down from the beam, walked out slowly, and after taking two steps, he turned his head and called to Hua Wendeng: "Meow."

Hua Wendeng closed the door and said to Jing Huai, "It's a cat."

Rong Shi hid in a blind corner above the beam, staring at the closed door in a daze, for a moment, he grabbed the beam and swung a swing, then lightly jumped to the ground, quickly ran across the corner and disappeared.

——However, I will send him there soon, and the emperor has to take it if he doesn't want it.

Jing Huai's words rang in his ears, Rong Shi stopped suddenly after running for a while, and then turned his head to look at the road.

"Mingyu, what are you doing here?"

Yin Lan came from the opposite side with a small basket of big red winter dates, she was very surprised when she saw Rong Shi, she stepped forward and patted Rong Shi on the shoulder.After the lightning, there was thunder, and when Rong Shi turned his head, the pupils of his eyes were extremely gloomy, under the gloomy sky and thunderstorm, he looked like a wild beast that hadn't been squeezed.

The moment Rong Shi turned his head, Yinlan was taken aback, her hands trembled involuntarily, the basket containing the red dates fell to the ground with a slap, the red dates bounced twice and rolled into the rain .

"You—" Yinlan swallowed, "What's wrong with you?"

Rong Shi glanced at her, then opened his eyes wide, innocent and weird: "It's sister Yinlan. I'm fine."

Yinlan's heart trembled when she heard her sister shouting.She had the courage to ask, "Is there something wrong with you?"

"It's a little uncomfortable."

"Then...then why don't you go back and rest quickly?" Yinlan was taken aback just now, but now she felt uneasy and didn't care for him as cordially as usual.

"I have to wait a while. I have to go to the young master's study first."

"What... what's the matter?"

"I don't know." Rong Shi said, "Young Master asked me to go to him when Shen Shi said he had something to give me."

"My lord seems to like you very much." Yinlan squatted down to pick up the basket that fell on the ground, and chatted indiscriminately while picking up the fallen winter dates.

After picking up two, a hand appeared in Yinlan's sight, picked up the dates from the ground, and put them into her basket.

She raised her head abruptly, and saw Rong Shi's unhealthy expression as usual, and a pair of pure, clean and beautiful eyes.

Rong Shi exchanged a glance with her, then silently picked up two dates and put them into the small shallow basket.Yinlan was stunned for a while, and then felt that she was probably hallucinating because she was too tired just now.

"Let me come, it's almost time for Shen Shi, you go, don't keep the young master waiting for a long time." Yin Lan calmed down a lot, and said softly.

Rong Shi nodded, stopped picking up dates, patted the dust on his hands that might have been stained by picking up things on the ground, and said, "Then I'll go first."

When he returned to Jing Huai's study, Hua Wendeng had already left, and only Jing Huai was sitting at the desk in the study, seeming to be dealing with government affairs.

Because of the torrential rains in the past few days, the efficiency of the people in Beijing has become lower, including the subordinates and officials of the government, who have piled up a lot of official duties on their desks.

However, the case file that Jing Huai was looking at was not an official matter, but the file of Jiang's treason case three years ago.
