As the fire gradually brightened, Han Du's figure was revealed on the chair.
Yu Qian laughed quickly, walked into the room, and replied haha: "Why haven't you had a rest yet, teacher?"
"How can I sleep if you won't come back?" Han Du glanced at him and said lightly.
Yu Qian knew that he was in the wrong, so he pretended to be confused and did not understand what Han Du meant. He turned around and said, "Isn't this disciple back? Teacher, please go and rest early. Don't be too tired."
"I'm not tired." Han Du remained motionless and had no intention of leaving. Instead, he looked into Yu Qian's eyes with a sneer and said sarcastically: "You, on the other hand, are so busy that you came back so late. You must be quite tired, right?"
Yu Qian smiled dryly and didn't dare to answer.
"Where have you been today?" Han Du immediately asked seriously.
Yu Qian quickly replied: "Of course I went to the machine workshop."
"Mechanical workshop?" Han Du was a little suspicious that Yu Qian went to meet Zhu Zhanji today, but he didn't expect that Yu Qian's answer was no.
After pausing for a few seconds, he asked hesitantly: "You didn't lie to me?"
Yu Qian looked very aggrieved and said quickly: "How dare I deceive my teacher?"
This is true...it is a grave sin of unfilial piety to deceive one's master and destroy one's ancestors. If this matter is exposed, Yu Qian will never think of doing anything else in his life.
Moreover, it is very easy for Han Du to verify it. He will find out when he asks Sun Xian tomorrow.
Although he believed his disciple, Han Du still asked: "Why on earth is Sun Xian looking for you? Why did he let you come back at this time?"
"Teacher will know after a while." Unexpectedly, Yu Qian kept it secret and did not say it directly.
Han Du's shoulders shook and he laughed, sighing slightly: "Okay, then I'll wait a little longer."
After a moment of pause, he asked again: "Then are you going to Sun Xian's place to help these days?"
"Yes." Yu Qian nodded, and then asked seriously: "I'm very busy these days, so I would like to ask the teacher to make it easier."
"It doesn't matter." Han Du waved his hand, "You are busy with your business, don't worry about me."
Han Du thought, the busier Yu Qian is, the better. The busier he is, the less time he has to get involved with Zhu Zhanji. ..
As for whether you are worried that Yu Qian pretended to help Sun Xian, but actually met with Zhu Zhanji?
Han Du was not worried at all because he knew Sun Xian very well. Sun Xian is very strict in everything he does and never changes his mind for anything. He dared to contradict even himself, and it was impossible for him to join forces with Yu Qian to deceive him.
Counting the days, Zhu Zhanji should be leaving in the next few days. After he leaves, he no longer has to worry.
After taking a look at Yu Qian, Han Du decided to talk to him publicly.
After brewing for a while, he sighed.
Yu Qian looked up when he heard the sound. He couldn't tell anything from the teacher's expression. He couldn't help but curiously asked: "Teacher, what's wrong?"
Han Du turned his head and looked into his eyes, and said with pity, "Do you think I don't like Zhu Zhanji?"
This...does it need to be said? Yu Qian glanced at the teacher cautiously.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the teacher not only dislikes Zhu Zhanji, but is also very wary of him, even to the point of guarding against thieves.
It stands to reason that Zhu Zhanji is also the grandson of the new Ming Emperor. Even if the teacher does not welcome him, he should not be targeted like this. After all, the visitor is a guest, and as the Duke of Daming Town, he should have this courtesy.
And Zhu Zhanji was only a few years old when he left Daming, and it was impossible for him to have any issues with his teacher. This made Yu Qian very confused as to why the teacher treated Zhu Zhanji like this.
Unexpectedly, the teacher would mention this matter. Yu Qian was about to speak, but was interrupted by Han Du:
"I don't like him, not because of me."
"Huh? What's that for?" Yu Qian became more and more confused as he listened and looked at the teacher with doubts.
"Because of you!" Han Du's face showed a rare seriousness.
"Because of me? What does this have to do with me?" Yu Qian shook his head after hearing this.
Zhu Zhanji is first-class in both knowledge and talent. During the conversation with him, Yu Qian indeed felt sympathetic towards Zhu Zhanji. But this is also an appreciation of his knowledge, nothing more.
He didn't understand why the teacher hated Zhu Zhanji for getting involved with him.
Han Du sighed and put his hands on the armrests.
Yu Qian saw it and quickly helped the teacher get up.
Han Du put his hands behind his back casually, walked to the window, looked at the dark night sky outside, and sighed:
"If I said you would die if you followed him, would you believe it?"
This time Yu Qian was silent for a long time, after all, it was related to his life and death. And he did have the idea of following Zhu Zhanji and doing something big.
When Yu Qian was sure that the teacher knew what he was thinking and was testing him, he asked with doubts, "Does the teacher mean that he will kill me in the future?"
"He won't kill you." Han Du said with great certainty.
Yu Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and he thought so too. Judging from his contact with Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Zhanji is a smart, studious, and talented person. Such a person is very likely to become a wise king of the new Ming Dynasty in the future, and the possibility of killing himself is very small.
If the teacher said that Zhu Zhanji would kill him, Yu Qian would not believe it.
"But you will die at the hands of his son." Han Du turned around, struggling in his heart full of pain.
Yu Qian was taught by him with all his heart and soul. If he died in the hands of Zhu Zhanji's good-for-nothing son, it would really be a waste of resources.
If possible, Han Du would like to strangle Zhu Zhanji's unborn son to death.
Yu Qian originally had a smile on his face, but it quickly dissipated at this moment. An inexplicable sadness welled up in his heart, and he could no longer smile.
"Will Zhu Zhanji's son kill me? But... isn't he not married yet? Where did he get his son from?"
Han Du could tell from his words that Yu Qian had indeed been in contact with Zhu Zhanji, and they were very close. Otherwise, how could Yu Qian know that even he himself didn't know whether Zhu Zhanji was married?
But now is not the time to pursue Yu Qian. Han Du shook his head and sighed: "I don't know how to explain it to you, but if you follow Zhu Zhanji. This is your end, being slandered and framed , and was finally killed by his son!"
Yu Qian instinctively felt that what the teacher said was too ridiculous, but whenever he didn't believe it and saw the teacher's concerned eyes, he felt that the teacher was not joking with him.
What the teacher said is true!
"So, is this the reason why the teacher tried so hard to prevent me from seeing Zhu Zhanji?" Yu Qian perked up and asked excitedly.
This makes sense why the teacher is so wary of Zhu Zhanji.
This is to save yourself!
Han Du closed his eyes slightly and nodded slightly.
Yu Qian's strength seemed to have been taken away instantly. He took two steps back and sat down on the chair, breathing heavily:
"Teacher, I need to slow down first..."
Han Du also knew that Yu Qian would not be able to accept it at once, after all, his statement was too absurd.
"You should have a good rest, but I want to remind you that what the teacher said is true."
"Teacher, walk slowly."
