Chapter 190: Entering the Mansion
"What?" Yuan Zhibai stroked his forehead, his face full of exhaustion.
"Lord Wang, today Duan Wang Shizi arrived at the store, and he wanted to rob Miss Lin Xiaozhu to enter the house." Yuan Chengyu said, and explained the matter in detail again. Yuan Zhi said that he wanted someone in three days, and the reason was legitimate, Yuan Cheng couldn't think of any good way for a long time. And when Yuan Tianye left, he repeatedly told him to take care of Lin Xiaozhu, and the matter was very important, so he had to report this matter to Yuan Zhibai.
Yuan Zhibai didn't expect Yuan Cheng to report such a trivial matter, and was about to speak a little angrily, but his mouth opened but he changed his mind, and said, "Yuan Cheng, the emperor's matter, I'm afraid it's been a few days." You know that. Since Yuan Zhi wants Lin Xiaozhu to enter the mansion, he is looking for an excuse to make snacks for Yuan Zhisong's old thief, isn't it just what we want? You hurry up and send her in, although there are many of us in that house, but one more person will be more certain, and I am afraid that she will be needed at that time. β
"Lord Wang, this can't work! When the son left, he told him to take care of the little bamboo girl. If he comes back and sees that we sent Xiaozhu girl to Duanwang's Mansion, I'm afraid he will be very angry. Yuan Cheng said with a bitter face.
Yuan Tianye's feelings for Lin Xiaozhu are also known to Yuan Zhibai. After thinking about it, he quickly made a decision: "It's a big deal. This is also Yang'er's planning for so many years, and there can be no accidents. It's always good to have an extra layer of protection. And there are a lot of our people in Duanwangfu, take care of them secretly, nothing will happen.
"But the prince ......" Yuan Cheng still wanted to argue with reason. Yuan Zhibai waved his hand and said impatiently: "Just do it, hurry up and send her in." β
Yuan Cheng sighed and withdrew. After thinking about it, he decided to be sloppy. The prince didn't say how many days he would send Lin Xiaozhu in anyway, and the time limit given by Yuan Zhi was three days. Then send Lin Xiaozhu in three days. If the people originally sent to Duanwang's Mansion completed the task within these three days, they poisoned Duanwang and killed Duanwang. Then Lin Xiaozhu doesn't need to be sent in anymore; On the contrary, if it doesn't work in three days, it will be Lin Xiaozhu's life. No one can do anything about it.
Thinking so, he also made up his mind. When he returned to Yuan's Mansion, he was afraid that Lin Xiaozhu would have any ideas. didn't say anything at all, just told her to rest in peace. Everything has him and the prince.
Lin Xiaozhu didn't know that Beiyan was preparing for an eight-magnitude earthquake right now. Hearing Yuan Cheng's words, he put his heart back in his stomach. Thinking that Yuan Zhi would not be able to come to Yuan Tianye's house to rob people no matter how shameless he was, he "recuperated" at home with peace of mind.
Three days passed quickly. The old emperor was still holding his breath, but he didn't swallow it. And Duanwang knew that the opportunity was in front of him, and like King Rui, he arranged it everywhere. Those days were spent in the outer study. The outer study is his important place, and people who are not henchmen are not allowed to enter, so the chess pieces planted by Yuan Tianye have no way to act in the past three days.
Yuan Cheng knew that he couldn't hide from this, and after asking Yuan Zhibai again, he found Lin Xiaozhu and told her about the current political situation and what she needed to do, as well as the orders of Lord Rui, and said, "Miss Xiaozhu, you are a smart person." You should also know the truth that 'under the nest, there are no eggs'. If the prince's and son's big things don't come true. You and I will not be able to save our lives, let alone anything else. So I also invited the girl to go to the Duanwang Mansion and try her best to do what the prince explained. β
Lin Xiaozhu stood there and was silent for a long time. Let's be honest. She was really reluctant to go to Duanwangfu. Not to mention that it is too dangerous to put King Duan to death, even if someone succeeds, as a subordinate in the house, I don't know if they can escape by then.
But from the moment Yuan Cheng told her about this matter, she knew that this matter could only move forward, not backward. She didn't say yes, and there was no way back. No matter how much Yuan Tianye valued her, knowing the news that she was going to kill Duanwang, she had only one choice, and that was to carry out the mission. Otherwise, there is only a dead end. Lord Rui will never leave anyone who knows this news and retreats from it.
Besides, she also promised Yuan Tianye that she would help him achieve great things, and now it can be regarded as an opportunity.
"I don't know which of the Duanwang Mansion are my own people? After the mission is completed, how do you retreat? She asked.
The last mission I carried out with Zhou Rou should be the most formal. Even if you get along for a few days, everyone doesn't know who the other party is or what they look like. But this mission is different, she needs to know which allies are, and she also needs to know whether King Rui will treat them as outcasts after the mission is completed. After all, this kind of thing can't see the light of day. The charge of killing his brother, even if King Rui won this coup d'Γ©tat and became the emperor of the country, he could not afford it.
Yuan Cheng looked at Lin Xiaozhu in surprise. For a task like this, Lin Xiaozhu didn't need to go. Now that he let her go, he thought she was going to cry for a while. But he didn't want Lin Xiaozhu to accept the task so calmly, and asked about the technical level.
When Lin Xiaozhu saw his gaze, he thought he was surprised by what she asked, and explained: "In Duanwang's Mansion, I am not familiar with life. And the task is too heavy, I think I can't do it alone. It takes a few people to work together. β
"Don't worry. Once you're inside, you'll naturally be contacted. You just have to listen to him. Yuan Chengdao. As for the question of how to retreat, no one had ever told him, and he didn't know how to answer Lin Xiaozhu, so he simply avoided talking about it.
"Yes." Lin Xiaozhu stopped talking. Yuan Cheng is only the specific executor. There are a lot of things that he can't come up with. He doesn't say it, and she understands it.
Yuan Cheng hesitated for a moment, and then said: "This time I went to Duanwang's Mansion, I'm afraid they won't let Yuan Wuniang follow up together." But since Duanwang Shizi doesn't say it, let's pretend to be confused, let her go with you. Not then, it's not too late to go home. β
"Thank you, Uncle Yuan Cheng." Lin Xiaozhu knew that the current situation was tense, and they were inevitably nervous. It was not easy for Yuan Cheng to put Yuan Wuniang by her side.
Lin Xiaozhu went back to the room to pack a few clothes, and then took a carriage with Yuan Wuniang to the gate of Duanwang's mansion.
"Who?" The porter of Duanwang's Mansion saw a carriage parked at the door, and two women came down from the carriage, although they were not gorgeously dressed, but they seemed to have an extraordinary temperament, so they came out and asked.
"I am the cook lady in Yuan Shenyi's mansion, named Lin Xiaozhu. The prince went to the dim sum shop we opened a few days ago and asked me to make dim sum for Duanwang. Please let this uncle report it. Lin Xiaozhu is neither humble nor arrogant.
"Seven officials in front of the prime minister", this Duan Wang has been in power for many years, and Duan Wang's Mansion has become the most powerful place in addition to the palace. So this concierge has long developed a high vision. This comes to the door, always stuff a few pieces of silver, and the other party will give you a gift, where is there a person like Lin Xiaozhu, who doesn't say a few good words, and doesn't have a smile on his face, and just wants people to report it? At that moment, the porter lowered his face and said impatiently: "The prince is not in the mansion now, you have something to do and come back in a while." β
Lin Xiaozhu glanced at the porter and said, "The prince called me here, and I have already come." Since he is not in the house and has not left a word, then I will pay this job. After speaking, he turned around and called, "Wu Niang, go back." β
"Hey." Yuan Wuniang was very anxious in her heart. Like Yuan Yi, Yuan Er and others, she is one of the ten people on the female side, and she can be said to be Yuan Tianye's most direct confidant. If there is anything in the Yuan Mansion, he will also tell them. So Lin Xiaozhu is going to Duanwangfu to perform the task, she knows. Now that she has a task, it's too late to try everything possible to enter the house, this aunt is good, and she will turn around and leave if she doesn't agree. Could it be that what she promised Yuan Cheng to be in charge of affairs was false, but she was actually unwilling to go to Duanwangfu?
But these words are not good to ask in front of the porter. She had to follow Lin Xiaozhu and turn around and walk towards the carriage.
Listening to Lin Xiaozhu's tough words, the porter was a little drumming in his heart. Could it be that the prince really called this little girl to the house? Shi Ziye likes women the most. And this girl is really not a good person, and she doesn't have half a smile on her face, maybe she is the one that the prince likes. If this really stops her from the door, when the prince remembers such a thing, he will have to eat and hang the brand.
Thinking like this, the porter couldn't sit still, "hey" twice, chased after him, and said, "Girl, girl, don't go." Let me go in and see if the prince is back. β
Lin Xiaozhu looked at him impatiently: "Didn't you say that you weren't at home?" Then I'll come back another day. β
"I'm sorry to wait, just wait a while." The porter didn't dare to let her go at this time, so he asked his companion to watch Lin Xiaozhu's carriage and galloped into the courtyard by himself.
Yuan Zhi has also been busy for a while in the past few days, and at this time, he just had to rest, sit on the chair and drink a cup of tea, and laugh with the beauty, when he heard that his little servant came to report that Lin Xiaozhu had arrived.
"You call the porter in." He pondered for a moment and said.
When the porter entered the door, he didn't dare to raise his head, and respectfully gave Yuan a salute.
"What does the girl you see look like? And how does she speak? What was said? You say it again and fifteen. Yuan Zhi said.
The second monk of the porter was confused, and he didn't know what the intention of the prince was. But at this time, he also knew that the girl at the door who dragged 2580,000 yuan was really the girl that the prince of the world loved. At that moment, he hurriedly repeated what Lin Xiaozhu said honestly.
"No smile, say a few words and turn around and leave?" A smile appeared on Yuan Zhi's face, and he waved his hand, "Call her in." β
"Yes." The porter quickly saluted and withdrew.
"Lord Shizi, what are you ......" Li Sheng listened on the sidelines, not thinking about the reason.
