Chapter 167 Spying
The emperor's eldest grandson, Gao Tingjun, lived in Zhaowang Mansion of the third prince.

If he hadn't been born, the third prince would never be a prince for the rest of his life.

Chu Qingyun was dressed in brocade, and walked at the gate of Prince Zhao's Mansion, looking at the notice of seeking talents above.

There is such a brightly pasted picture at King Zhao's gate, it's really because Mr. Gao Ting changed his reading partner too fast.

Generally, relatives of the royal family already have fixed companions when they reach the thirteenth and fourth grades, and they will not change again until they become adults, but King Zhao has one after another, and never breaks.

Therefore, King Zhao has lowered the requirement for companionship to three years old.

Chu Qingyun counted herself, she was just fifteen this year, and her face looked tender, so she naturally met the requirements.

The corners of her mouth curled up, and she went directly into Prince Zhao's mansion with a loud voice.

"You... why didn't you tell me, little one?"

Chu Qingyun stopped in her tracks: "I heard that Prince Zhao's Mansion needs a companion, so I'm here to give it a try."

"Just you?" The man looked Chu Qingyun up and down, with a regretful expression, as if Chu Qingyun was bound to die.

"I'm 15 years old. I'm from Dongjian. My surname is Lin. My name is Qing. My family is clean."

The old man sighed helplessly: "You can do it, but this job is not so easy to do. Don't blame the old man for not reminding you."

"Well, don't worry, old man, I know the seriousness."

"Then follow me." After saying that, the old man took Chu Qingyun to the backyard. There was a long table in the yard, and Chu Qingyun sat beside him, waiting quietly.

After a while, a curtain was suddenly pulled down in the courtyard ahead.

Chu Qingyun vaguely saw a figure behind the curtain.

I just heard the man clear his throat: "You are quite handsome."

"Just being my companion, is it going to be hard?"

Chu Qingyun nodded: "I know."

"I need to sign the life and death certificate."

Chu Qingyun thought of the few taels of gold on the notice. Even if life and death were unpredictable, if there were still people coming to the door, they were probably attracted by the silver money.

"Why, don't you want to?"

Chu Qingyun shook her head: "Of course I am willing."

"I'll show you to your room myself."

Chu Qingyun got up, followed the man's footsteps, and walked deep into the backyard.

"This is where I live?" Chu Qingyun frowned, this place doesn't look like a college where a companion lives, but rather a place where pets live.

Low eaves, a huge bed.

She went in and saw an iron chain.

An ominous premonition filled Chu Qingyun's heart.

"Are you sure this is where the companion lives?"

The corner of the man's mouth raised: "Of course not, but there are too many people in the mansion recently, and there are not so many guest rooms. I feel wronged Qing'er."

Chu Qingyun's scalp tingled when she heard the word Qing'er, she hurriedly sent the person away first: "Then let's go here."

Gao Tingjun didn't speak any more, and left slowly.

Chu Qingyun looked up and down the room, the bed was treated very clean, but there were traces on the wall, which looked like they were scratched out by fingernails.

She walked to the wall to the north, and picked up the two-meter-long iron chain. The iron chain was brightly turned over, and it was not rusted at all, which showed that it was often used.

Chuqing Yunzai carefully checked the gaps in the wall, there was not a single animal hair, and no animals were kept here at all.

Then here is... Chu Qingyun's back is chilly.

Usually vigilant, she didn't even notice who was coming from behind.

"Lin Qing, what are you looking for?"

A handsome man suddenly appeared at the door, and Chu Qingyun immediately put on a confused expression: "I didn't...you called me?"

The man looked at him impatiently: "The young master called you and said he wanted to show the prince."

"it is good."

Although Chu Qingyun went out and arrived at the front hall, a man with earthy face was sitting on the chair in the middle, with the stern Mr. Gao Ting on his right hand side.

"Father, this is the new companion reading I said, please take a look at it."

King Zhao kept coughing, and only looked up at him between coughs, the disgust in his eyes was undisguised.

"Father doesn't like it?"

King Zhao raised his hand feebly: "This time, how long can you last?"

"Look at what my father said, I naturally hope that the longer the better." He looked at Chu Qingyun as if he was going to eat someone: "I really like this person."

The corners of King Zhao's mouth twitched, foam was already showing from the corners of his mouth.

The servants around him seemed to be invisible, motionless.

Mr. Gao Ting didn't panic at all, and waved his hands: "Father is sick again, quickly take him down so that he can be healed."

Only then did the people around help King Zhao up and took him away.

"Qing'er, don't be afraid, it's not that the father doesn't like you, the old man is too excited."

Seeing him getting closer and closer to her, Chu Qingyun couldn't help but take two steps back. She never liked people approaching her, and more importantly, she alone Gao Tingjun saw that she was disguised as a man.

"Xiao Qinger is shy?"

"Your Highness, may I ask, when will I accompany you? When will Master have class?"

"Qing'er is so eager to learn? Of course we can't let Qing'er down."

As he said that, Gao Tingjun waved his hand, and his servants immediately brought the two of them into a gazebo. There were all the pens, inks, papers and inkstones on it. Chu Qingyun wiped it, and the ashes slowly swayed on it. It has not been used for a long time. up.

"Come here, this is dirty, replace it." The servant changed the paper without saying a word.

At this moment, an old master came in a hurry.

"Your Highness, I am late."

Gao Tingjun pointed to the side: "Qing'er wants to learn, Master, let's start."

Chu Qingyun could hear the strangeness in his words, wasn't she a companion?How come it looks like she wants to learn.

The master glanced at Chu Qingyun with ulterior motives: "Then learn... the three obediences and the four virtues."

Chu Qingyun was stunned, she never thought that there would be a master who would teach this?
Even normal people have already abandoned this thing, so it is possible that he has been discovered disguised as a man, but looking at Mr. Gao Ting's eyes, he doesn't seem to know anything.

Chu Qingyun opened her mouth and did not refute. She came here to test the situation, not to be a real companion, and it doesn't matter what she learns.

The master took out a book, shook his head, and read the words "Father before marriage, husband after marriage, and son after death".

Chu Qingyun was sleepy listening below, when is this the old Huangli, still learning this?

You didn't know that an hour had passed before the nagging voice of the Master stopped, Chu Qingyun's left ear was piercing into the right ear, you don't know what you said at all.

Gao Tingjun looked at him suddenly, expectantly: "Have you learned it?"

"Ok?"

"Qing'er is so smart, she must have learned it, and learn it by heart."

Chu Qingyun's face darkened, she didn't hear a word, so she couldn't recite it.

Seeing that Chu Qingyun didn't respond, Gao Tingjun's amiable expression disappeared instantly, and the sternness in his eyes suddenly appeared.

He waved his hand, and the master left immediately.

When Chu Qingyun realized something was wrong, the other party had already walked to her side and grabbed her wrist.

"Qing'er must be embarrassed to carry it in front of others, let's go back to the house."
