Jinyi champion

Chapter 180
It's time for the watch.

Jinghong was in the dormitory, reviewing his homework by candlelight, when suddenly the outside was bright.

Looking sideways, Zhu Hao walked in with a strange thing in his hand.

"what is this?"

Jinghong looked at Zhu Hao, but didn't ask where Zhu Hao had gone. Anyway, Zhu Hao was used to being haunted by ghosts, so with Jinghong's level, he really couldn't understand what Zhu Hao was doing.

Jinghong is more concerned about what is in Zhu Hao's hand.

It's like a lantern, but it's not a lantern, you can walk around with your hand, even when it's windy outside, Zhu Hao actually walked all the way, and the flames inside were not extinguished.

Zhu Hao put down the utensil, and Jinghong finally saw it clearly. It seemed to be a tung oil lamp, but it was covered with a strange outer shell, which was transparent. It seemed to be the material they used to play with the marbles, but it was more Smoother and more crystal clear.

Zhu Hao took out the booklet from his schoolbag and explained casually: "I call this a horse lantern, which is a kind of lamp that can be hung on the saddle for lighting when riding a horse at night."

"This...won't it be burning? It seems to be closed...the lights inside will go out soon, right?"

Jinghong is very smart. Although he has never been in contact with science, he also knows that if the lamp is fastened with an airtight object, it will go out in a short time. Of course, those who have studied chemistry know that it is due to the exhaustion of oxygen.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "It looks closed, but in fact there are three layers of ventilation holes, which are connected through copper pipes... Now only copper pipes can be used, and ordinary people may not be able to afford it for lighting, but if iron pipes are used , the cost will be greatly reduced, and more people will use it..."

After all, Zhu Hao's laboratory does not have an iron-smelting furnace. To make metal castings, copper is more suitable for forming and improving.

The horse lantern in his hand is a kind of windproof lamp, with a metal frame and a metal cylinder as a conduit connecting the inner and outer spaces. There are two upper and lower layers, the lower layer is filled with tung oil, and the upper layer is a glass cover, which will transmit light to the greatest extent. Compared with using a lantern, it is brighter and safer, and there is no need to worry about the shell being destroyed by fire.

It should have been an ordinary night.

Zhu Hao sat at his desk to write the script and proposal, while Jing Hong reviewed his homework.

However, because Zhu Hao brought a lantern, Jinghong didn't have the time to study. He stared at the lampshade for a long time, reached out to touch it a few times, his face was either happy or worried, and those who didn't know thought it was a demon.

However, Zhu Hao knew that this kid had great curiosity about new things, especially about scientific things. Even Zhu Si didn't have such a strong thirst for knowledge as Jinghong.

The two had already agreed that they would not speak when reading and writing, and the two have always kept their promises.

After an hour of silence, footsteps came from outside.

Jinghong looked sideways and found that a figure came to the door of the room, but he didn't come in directly, but just knocked on the door lightly.

"Tuk Tuk..."

"Who?" Zhu Hao asked.

Lu Song's voice came from outside: "It's me."

Jinghong looked at Zhu Hao: "It seems to be Lu Dianzhan."

Jinghong has long been used to it. Anyway, every time Lu Song came to look for Zhu Hao instead of him, he felt left out at first, but after discovering the huge gap with Zhu Hao, he realized that he had no capital to fight against the royal family. Do direct communication.

In the end it was no surprise.

"Please come in."

Zhu Hao didn't go to open the door, but just said something.

He was the last to enter the room, and the door was unbarred, as if anticipating a visit in the evening.

Lu Song immediately opened the door and walked in. When he saw the two children reading at the desk, he suddenly felt unreal.

It’s nothing more than studying Jinghong, Zhu Hao, you are so thoughtful and your brain is more flexible than an adult. In the past, you just read a lot. Now you have gone to Nanchang to bring back the great talent Tang Yin. ?So what are you pretending to be here?
"Master Zhu, I'm here...to talk to you."

Lu Song wanted to ask Zhu Hao to talk in the yard, but when he saw the lantern, he had the same reaction as Jinghong, being attracted by this special-looking but very practical lamp.

Zhu Hao put down his pen, stood up and looked at Lu Song: "Please wait outside, Lu Dianzhan."

After saying that, Zhu Hao packed up the files in front of him, picked up the lantern, and handed one of his own candles to Jinghong, but Jinghong shook his head and confiscated it, and just relit half of the candle he had lit before.

……

……

yard.

When Lu Song saw Zhu Hao coming out with a lantern, he was very surprised. Even though he was talking about something, his eyes still fell on the lantern that Zhu Hao was holding.

"...I have already told the lord before, it is exactly as you guessed, and your worries have been confirmed. In addition, Mr. Lu seems to have guessed something about me, and thinks that the contact between you and me is unusual. Have you told him? About my... relationship with Jin Yiwei?"

Lu Song looked solemn.

Zhu Hao felt that Lu Song was as timid as a mouse now, and would overreact at the slightest sign of trouble.

Zhu Hao said: "Why should I tell him this if I have nothing to do? Does he have a good relationship with Jin Yiwei?"

Lu Song frowned, why does this kid speak so skillfully?I ask you whatever you answer, why use rhetorical questions?Let me answer you?
"Further."

Zhu Hao added, "Don't look at Mr. Lu who is usually sloppy and out of shape, but he will never sell others in exchange for his own future and interests. He is not the kind of person who sells friends for glory."

"Selling friends for glory?"

Lu Song didn't quite understand Zhu Hao's novel rhetoric.

Zhu Hao smiled slightly: "He has just entered the palace not long ago, and he has no acquaintances around him, so he treats you as a friend... I can see this very clearly."

Lu Song was startled again.

He suddenly thought of Tang Yin calling him to stop him before, with a perplexed look on his face, hesitating to speak, if Tang Yin really had evil intentions towards him and wanted to betray him, why was he so hesitant?
As Zhu Hao said, Tang Yin regarded him as a friend, and everything made sense.

It is precisely because of Tang Yin's love and righteousness that he feels that some issues are too sensitive, beyond the scope of mutual inquiry between friends, so Tang Yin hesitates to speak.

"The last thing is... Do you think that Mr. Lu would think that a loyal man who devoted himself to the Xing Palace and did not care about personal gains or losses in everything would be a spy for the Jin Yiwei to inquire about news and sell the Palace for profit? " Zhu Hao used rhetorical questions again.

Lu Song still couldn't answer this question.

Everything is within reason.

As long as Zhu Hao didn't reveal his identity as a spy of Jinyiwei to Tang Yin, no matter how powerful Tang Yin was, he wouldn't think so much.

Lu Song didn't get angry because of Zhu Hao's previous series of words that made him feel harsh. This time he made contributions to Xing Wangfu, and Zhu Hao is the real hero behind the scenes. You avoid suspicion and leave the palace, and Mr. Lu will help you talk with me."

Zhu Hao smiled: "I remind you and Mr. Lu, in fact, it is to prevent the Wangfu from thinking that I was involved in the incident after the incident, and the incident will be irreversible by then!"

"Sure enough."

Lu Song calmed down.

He felt that Zhu Hao didn't lie, but just proved that Zhu Hao had a foresight. He suddenly thought of something and asked, "What did you tell Mr. Lu?"

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "His trust in me is much higher than that of Lu Dianzhan, so I don't need to say too much to warn the palace without hesitation...Mr. Lu is dedicated to the palace, so there is no need to doubt his sincerity? I think , even if you really tell him that you were coerced by Jin Yiwei and secretly leaked information about the palace, he will give you advice instead of rushing to report it."

Lu Song didn't believe Zhu Hao's words before, but after hearing Zhu Hao's analysis of the situation and the final result... Lu Song found that his insight was not as good as the child in front of him.

Since your wisdom is not as good as that of a human being, and you are still grateful for his kindness, how dare you suspect that he is plotting against you?
"Right now, the palace is tight inside and outside, and the defenses will be complete when the guards from all over the place come back...Zhu Hao, you should go out as little as possible these two days, what do you think about this?"

Lu Song really asked for advice this time.

Zhu Hao looked indifferent: "Actually, at this moment, the palace should not keep a low profile for fear of scaring the snake. Instead, it should act in a high-profile way before the security forces are in place. Those with malicious intentions find that the palace has raised its vigilance and turned into a monolith. Get out of trouble."

Lu Songdao: "You mean... you should remind King Xing to raise the alert level, so as to create a false impression of jitteriness?"

Zhu Hao smiled slightly and didn't explain much.

"You...what do you think, but it's okay to say, I know you don't like to take a stand on this matter, but I believe you won't ruin the name of loyalty left by your father because of family matters..." Lu Song said .

Zhu Hao smiled: "Lu Dianzhan doesn't need to put a high hat on me, my father also gave me loyalty and filial piety."

Lu Song was taken aback.

you boy...

I said loyalty, but you said loyalty and filial piety.

Is this self-deprecating?

Will you sell the palace in order to maintain your filial piety to the family?When I didn't know that your kid had tied his interests with the palace long ago?

"Actually, what King Xing is doing right now is not too problematic. If you insist on using the limited manpower to the extreme, it will inevitably create an internal emptiness, allowing the enemy to take advantage of it...then it is better to maintain the status quo." Zhu Hao suddenly changed his previous attitude. The statement made Lu Song extremely puzzled.

Why is this kid tossing and turning?
But I heard Zhu Hao add: "But if someone in the palace can tell my uncle that the palace is tight inside and loose outside, will my uncle think that the palace is luring the enemy to go deep, come on!" Please enter the urn?"

"Ok?"

After Lu Song thought for a while, his face was full of surprise.

This kid has lost a lot of moves.

Maintaining the status quo, but deliberately leaking information to let the people of Jinyiwei know that the palace is now wary, then Jinyiwei must be restrained in every way.

The people in Jinyiwei thought they were smart, thinking that the palace did not know that they had leaked the news of the full security and were still trying their best to cover it up, so they did not dare to act rashly... In this way, the initiative completely fell into the hands of the palace.

Obviously, the current defense strength of the palace is insufficient, but Jin Yiwei is intimidated. This move can only be said to be quite clever.
