Chapter 895: A Secret Order from the Yin Concubine
"Steward Sun, the secret order of our Fengyin Concubine Niangniang came over at night when no one was paying attention." An inner eunuch bowed his head slightly, standing at the side door of the Third Prince's Mansion, his face a little anxious and worried, as if he was afraid of being discovered.
"Oh, what instructions does the mother have?" The three princes instead of the emperor inspected Shuchuan and Hanzhong counties, it seems that Shuchuan and Hanzhong are not as rich as Jiangnan County, nor are they as prosperous as Huzhou County, but Shuchuan and Hanzhong have natural advantages, as long as they get the support of these two counties, the strength of the three princes will inevitably increase, and as the housekeeper of the Three Princes' Mansion, Sun Siche has been grasping almost everything inside and outside the palace since the three princes left, and they are all done by themselves, so they have been particularly tired for a while recently, and I feel that I have lost a lot of weight.
No, just after being busy today, ready to wash up and rest, a cronie next to him walked up to him with light steps and told himself that the concubine Niangniang in the palace sent someone to bring him a secret order.
When he heard the news, Sun Siche's eyes flashed with suspicion, you must know that when the three princes were in Jinling, the Yin Concubine Niangniang did not have much contact with the Three Princes on the surface, not even secretly, in fact, the Yin Concubine Niangniang did not show this side, so in order not to be controlled by others, the Yin Concubine Niangniang and the Three Princes would not seem to have any intersection, except for simple mother-son ethics.
And now everyone knows that the three princes went to Shuchuan and Hanzhong counties, logically speaking, Concubine Yin Niangniang should not send any secret orders to the Three Princes' Mansion, not only to avoid suspicion, but more importantly, the Three Princes are not in the mansion, and the secret orders from Concubine Yin Niangniang have no meaning.
Although Sun Siche's eyes were full of suspicion, but when it came to the concubine Niangniang, Sun Siche did not dare to be careless at all, with a trace of caution, put on his coat and slowly came to a side door in the west of the mansion under the illumination of the lanterns of his cronies.
"Steward Sun, can you take a step to speak?" The inner supervisor looked back and looked around, and in the hazy night he didn't seem to find anything, but he said cautiously.
"Oh, you know who I am, but Your Excellency is very unfamiliar, although I haven't seen all of them around Concubine Yin, but to shoulder such an important mission, Concubine Yin Niangniang will definitely send a familiar face." Sun Siche originally had a trace of doubt about the intention of the person who came, but now when he heard the other party's words, Sun Siche's eyes obviously flashed with suspicion, and there was obvious distrust in his words.
"Steward Sun is right to be so cautious." Seeing Sun Siche's expression, there was no trace of annoyance on the face of the comer, with a slight smile, he met Sun Siche's distrustful gaze and said slowly.
"Several people and old people around Niangniang are under the monitoring of secret spies, and this matter has not spread so far, and it is estimated that it will not spread openly, so Niangniang chose our family, a celebrity who doesn't seem to be Niangniang's side, to convey this secret order." A faint smile appeared on the face of the inner eunuch, and he glanced at Sun Siche indifferently, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"It's not that I'm too careful, but I should be careful at all times and everything." Hearing the other party mention that several old people around Concubine Yin were under the monitoring of the secret spy, Sun Siche's eyes revealed a touch of essence, and then returned to normal, indeed, the secret spy is almost pervasive, more powerful than the Jinyi School, so there is no problem with the words of the comer on the surface, but the comer made a gesture while speaking, Sun Siche's suspicious heart finally calmed down, because this gesture is only known to the closest people of the Yin Concubine Niangniang, and at the same time, this gesture is only used when making emergency contact with the three princes, So far, this gesture is the second time that it has been used, so Sun Siche believes that the person in front of him is indeed here on the secret order of Concubine Yin, because this gesture is absolutely impossible to have any possibility of someone else impersonating.
"What's just that, mother?" Although the same sentence, Sun Siche's tone at this time was much calmer and more sincere, Sun Siche said indifferently while guiding the person to enter the side door.
"Tonight, the emperor went to the Yin Concubine Niangniang to stay overnight, and had a light meal with the Yin Concubine Niangniang, and during the chat, the emperor inadvertently mentioned that as long as the three princes can break their wrists, the position of the prince may not be impossible." A cautious look appeared on the face of the visitor, and even in the side door to the west of the Three Princes' Mansion, he still maintained a cautious attitude.
"Concubine Yin wanted to ask a few words, but she was worried that the emperor would be suspicious because of this, so she could only pretend that she didn't care about anything, and continued to accompany the emperor to eat and chat.
"Please tell Niangniang to know, I will definitely handle this news carefully, and will tell the three princes as soon as possible, and let the three princes decide for themselves." Seeing the look of the comer, Sun Siche's eyes couldn't help but show a touch of approval, it is not easy to maintain this cautious attitude at any time, no wonder he can get the trust of his mother at a young age.
"In this way, our family will leave, and our family will quietly sneak back to the palace before the palace gate falls, so as not to let people get caught and cause some unnecessary trouble." The person who came didn't know Sun Siche's thoughts, even if he knew, he was just grinning, he could get the trust of Concubine Yin, in addition to his own cleverness and prudence, more importantly, in exchange for sacrifice, how much risk he took in the process, how much humiliation he experienced, how could he be satisfied with Sun Siche's praise. Of course, this process itself will never be mentioned to anyone again.
"That being the case, then I won't send my father-in-law, I hope my father-in-law goes back and be careful, if I have the opportunity, I hope my father-in-law can come out to enjoy his face, the Three Princes' Mansion is ready to invite his father-in-law to drink tea." Hearing the words of the comer, Sun Siche's eyes flashed with a touch of solemnity, the person in front of him is indeed a thoughtful person, and every detail is considered very clearly, which is not easy. Therefore, Sun Siche's eyes glanced at each other with a look of equality, and he did not have the arrogance that came from his bones before.
