Houfu Key Class

The smile on the little devil's face froze on the spot, and he didn't even dare to blink. He was already panicking.

Help! How could dad know?

Where was I exposed? Help! !

He lowered his head to look at Ce Lun, rolled his eyes, and tried to calmly pretend to be dumbfounded: "No, why is Your Highness teaching me this?"

Xu Wan had a premonition that she would be unable to ask again, and this guy wanted to get away with it again.

Zong Zhao stared at him and said, "He took you to Dali Temple not to have fun, but to familiarize yourself with the case handling process."

Zong Jincheng: "..."

I have begun to suspect that my father has opened his eyes.

He was beating like crazy in his heart, but he still said bravely: "I'm just going to play... I don't know what you mean, Dad."

Zong Zhao pointed out directly: "You are lying."

Zong Jincheng's hands shook and he immediately stood up and wanted to run.

However, Xu Wan stood ahead and blocked his way.

The little devil said with a sad face: "Dad, I still want to read a book, so I won't chat with you anymore, okay? I have the best father and mother in the world, can you let me go?"

Xu Wan said with complicated eyes: "I remember you said that His Highness did not allow you to tell others, but your policy exposed you. Fortunately, only your father and I can read this article today. If it were given to other masters or the Ministry of Rites, If people see it, the consequences will be disastrous.”

"I...is there anything wrong with my strategy?" Zong Jincheng was confused, "Did Mom suggest that the new emperor appoint officials? Isn't that wrong? Officials are not just to relieve the new emperor of his worries, but how can he give him suggestions? The consequences are disastrous?"

Zong Zhao pointed it out directly to him: "Because that is not the way to be an official."

The little devil was stunned.

"How is that possible! His Highness taught me a lot of knowledge that cannot be learned outside. When I become a second-grade official in the future, I will be able to give advice to the emperor at any time." Zong Jincheng became more and more proud as he spoke, "That's it. With your highness's help, my strategies will become better and better, let's see how I can throw Qin Ye out of the Eight Streets in Chunwei!"

Having said this, it is basically an admission.

The little devil added secretly: "Dad, His Highness is not allowed to tell others, so you must keep it a secret for me, otherwise His Highness will definitely blame me for being lax when he wakes up."

Zong Zhao hummed and said, "We will keep it secret, and you must do the same. Don't mention what His Highness taught you in future policy discussions."

"Why?!" The little devil didn't understand, so he shouted directly, "His Highness taught me to be a good official, why can't I write it in the policy? If I don't write it, my strength will be cut off a lot, so How can I take the Imperial Examination? Besides, what’s wrong with my writing? Apart from the Masters, only people from the Ministry of Etiquette can see it. Even if they want to steal it, they can only wait until the next session, which will not threaten my exam ranking at all.”

Zong Zhao looked at him with a serious look: "Because what His Highness taught you is the art of the emperor."

Xu Wan felt her breath suffocate.

Although she had once suspected that His Highness was secretly teaching Jin Cheng important things, she never dared to think about it.

The prince actually started planning it so early.

He is also paving the way for Jincheng.

"The Emperor's Art..." Zong Jincheng murmured in disbelief.

He fell down weakly, looking a little dazed, and the scene of studying with His Highness emerged in his memory.

In this large library on the second floor, His Highness's gentle eyes told him many choices and methods that those in power should make. He also showed him the work procedures of the six departments and talked about many loopholes in the law and how to fix them.

In every aspect, I seemed to hear His Highness's voice echoing in my ears: "Assassination. People in power have secret guards around them. In addition to protecting themselves, they will also be sent out to perform various tasks. However, assassinating officials is a scandal and must not be discovered. , so those in power like to use the hands of others to kill people.”

"Those in power..." Zong Jincheng naturally knew who he was referring to, but he thought that His Highness wanted to teach him to give advice to those in power in the future.

However, His Highness said that these things were taught to him by the Emperor, and that the Emperor and the Crown Prince were both familiar with them. To whom did he teach them what he had learned?

He had no one to comment on.

Zong Zhao's words gave him an enlightenment, and he clearly realized His Highness's forbearance and patience hidden under his gentle smile.

His Highness never said that he would teach him the ways of being an official.

What he taught - has always been the art of the emperor.

"How could this happen? How could this happen..." Zong Jincheng couldn't accept it. He looked at his parents for help, "This is not true, right? Your Highness is the crown prince and the heir apparent of a country. He is the one who will succeed to the throne. , How could you teach me the art of the emperor? Isn’t this just raising a tiger’s head?”

From a blood perspective, he is His Highness's younger brother.

But from the perspective of the party, he is His Highness's competitor and the biggest threat to His Majesty's ascension to the throne.

Your Highness...should kill him.

Zong Zhao said to him patiently: "His Royal Highness's maternal clan is gone, his health is not good, and the Luo family in the court has military power, so he cannot ascend the throne. Only you, only you can sit on that throne." Only with this position can the Luo family feel at ease and His Highness feel at ease. You are the most important balance point in this overall situation, so His Highness chooses to give you everything he has."

Spring silkworms will not run out of silk until they die, and wax torches will turn to ashes before their tears dry up.

Zong Jincheng shed a tear and wet a corner of the policy statement. He said distressedly: "Why is Your Highness so good? He really shouldn't have kept me... Without me, there wouldn't have been so many troubles. "

Zong Zhao rubbed his hair and said: "In fact, at the beginning, I didn't understand Your Highness. But later... I figured it out. Your existence is both a threat and a savior. Without you, the Luo family would have directly rebelled and changed the dynasty, and the price would be much more serious than the prince's fight for the throne."

Zong Jincheng lowered his head and thought for a while: "It seems so... But Luo Jingfeng loves me so much, is it really impossible for him to give up supporting me to take the throne?"

Zong Zhao shook his head: "He is very stubborn and will not give up. Moreover, it's not just him, but also your uncle, the King of Zhennan, who is even less likely to give up."

Zong Jincheng She clenched her fingers and whispered, "No wonder His Highness asked me to hide my shortcomings. I said that everyone can see my achievements. How should I hide them? It turns out that I should hide the things he taught me."

Xu Wan also squatted down and comforted her, "Even without His Highness's teaching, your policy essays are excellent. Mother will also work hard to improve your policy essays."

The little devil pouted and said, "I know, mother, I won't write these things in my policy essays in the future, and I will never be exposed again."

After saying that, he looked at Zong Zhao with resentment and asked, "How did Dad know that I was lying?"
