Naturally, there would be no one else. Su Ziji immediately thought of the Queen and took a look at the sky. It was still early, and the little fox brought the news, indicating that he came in secret.
Although it is still early in the morning, the palace banquet for the Shangyuan Festival started early. Since there are many processes to be completed and not much time to waste, the entire mansion is now busy.
I believe it won’t be long before someone from the palace will come and walk them through the process. After all, being a grandson and concubine cannot be easy on a day like the Lantern Festival Palace Banquet.
This is very different from the past when there were princes, princes, and dukes.
Su Ziji said to the little fox: "Tell the person to meet you in the secret room."
This secret room was set up by Su Ziji not long ago just to meet people sent by the Queen.
Meetings with the Queen's people cannot be known to outsiders.
The little fox immediately ran out and became the pet of the grandson and concubine. Even if his comings and goings were noticed, he would not think of anything else.
After a while, the little fox came back again, this time bringing the news that the other party had gone to the secret room.
There are different entrances and exits to the secret room. One of the entrances and exits in the main courtyard is in the compartment next to the study.
After pressing the button, the heavy bookshelf filled with books moved away, revealing an entrance inside and stone steps, which seemed to be covered with frost in winter.
And as Su Zi's books enter, the bookshelf will close again.
Su Ziji stepped in, not intending to take the little fox with him, but a white shadow flashed, and before the bookshelf could be closed again, the little fox slipped in by himself.
Seeing this, Su Ziji could only smile and shake his head, but did not drive it away.
No matter what his identity is, as long as he is loyal to himself and has no ambiguity about himself, he has his own position as Xiao Jiujiu, and Su Ziji can be tolerant and tolerant.
This is your own way to be a king, just look at the results.
Entering along the stone steps against the wall, the secret room was illuminated by the lamps held up. The people who had been waiting inside immediately knelt down and knelt down to worship as soon as they saw him.
"This slave has met the young master!"
The person who came had a high-pitched voice, and he sounded like a eunuch. However, he was dressed like an ordinary steward. He looked quite young. Su Ziji looked at him under the light and found that he looked familiar.
"My servant Zhou Zhong is under the jurisdiction of Eunuch Yu. I have met my grandson several times." The eunuch said respectfully and took a token: "This is the token given to me by Eunuch Yu."
"Well, I remember." When Su Ziji went to the Queen's Palace to meet the Queen, he came into contact with this person. This was indeed a eunuch in the Queen's Palace. As for the steward's clothes, they were obviously worn outside the eunuch's uniform.
It can be taken off as soon as you take it off.
Su Ziji asked him to stand up, and then asked: "My father-in-law Yu sent you to find the orphan. Is there any urgent matter?"
Both he and Ye Buhui were very busy today. If it wasn't for something urgent, the queen would not have sent eunuch Zhou Zhong to look for him.
Zhou Zhong didn't beat around the bush and said immediately: "Little master, I came out in the name of buying new year's goods. I had half an hour to rest, so I took the opportunity to come over. I could only say a few words before going back. If there were too many, I'm afraid it would be too late."
The emperor’s people will find out.”
"The Queen asked my slave to give you two sentences. The first one is about the Emperor's intention for you, which may be related to the Great Return Pill. The other things, the Queen has not found out. I only hope that this sentence can be of some use to you, my little master.
help."
Maybe it has something to do with Da Huan Dan?
When Su Ziji heard this, his heart sank. However, he also knew that this was not the time to think about this. The other party had arrived in a hurry and was probably leaving soon, so he asked directly: "What about the manpower in the palace last time?"
Is there any answer?"
"Is there anyone else who can be used by the Queen in the palace? Besides the guards and eunuchs, is there anyone else who can be used by the Queen in the palace?"
"My lord, the second thing the queen wants to talk about is this." Zhou Zhong answered quickly: "Yes, the queen also had some people in the palace back then, distributed in various palaces and doors, including guards."
"Now, some of these people have been transferred, some have been demoted, but some are still in critical places. But after twenty years, I'm afraid not many are really available."
"Therefore, the empress did not bring me the list for you, for fear of causing trouble."
This is human nature. People take tea to cool down. This is a universal principle everywhere.
Although the empress has not left yet, she has been locked up in her palace for twenty years, rarely going out, and not caring about palace affairs. Under such circumstances, even those who were loyal back then, after twenty years, can no longer
They may not still have the same thoughts as before, I am afraid that many people have already had their thoughts and have chosen other masters.
This is all inevitable.
But Su Ziji said: "It doesn't matter. Next time my father-in-law sees me, I can bring the list to me, and I will be able to distinguish it myself."
There is no problem with this. Zhou Zhong immediately said: "I understand, I will tell you to your Majesty. Also, it is very difficult for the people beside Your Majesty to move."
"The young master wants to borrow a knife to kill someone, but he is afraid that it will backfire."
"However, Zhang Gui is the only one whose position is not very high, but he manages external procurement and connects internal and external affairs. His position is relatively important."
"The empress means that she can bite Ma Shunde, but in fact she is just building the plank road openly, and the target of Chen Cang's secret plot is this person."
"If this person dies, the empress can put someone in place to communicate with the internal and external affairs for the young master."
"I understand."
"Since the young master understands, I will take my leave now. When I have the opportunity, I will give you the list of names as soon as possible."
With that said, Zhou Zhong didn't have time to talk to Su Ziji and left in a hurry.
Seeing the leaving figure, Su Ziji couldn't help but frown, his expression was difficult to distinguish and very complicated.
"The mother is strong for the son, and the queen is also paving the way for the prince. This step by step is so far-reaching. If the prince is determined to change the palace, he is somewhat certain. It is a pity that he committed suicide early."
"It's all easier for me now."
"But now, I have something to tell you." Su Ziji touched the little fox and said gloomily: "Go and monitor Sun's Silk Clothes Store and Zhennanbo's Mansion, but don't get close to Zhennanbo's Mansion.
There seems to be a big demon there. If you get close, you will be in trouble."
"I have sent people to monitor and bribe nearby shops' informants. All you need to do is supervise from behind."
This is Su Ziji's method, that is, if someone from the Taisun Mansion comes forward in the name of someone else, it will easily arouse intense vigilance and change - why would your Taisun Mansion do this?
Therefore, Taisun Mansion has adopted a subcontracting system and does not use the name of Taisun Mansion to the outside world - for example, in the name of a small shop, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not.
Then just go to a nearby shop, pay attention to the people coming in and out, make a note, and give it to the shop, and you can get the reward - it's not much money, just a few dozen to a hundred cents.
It's not much, but it can reassure people in the store. If it's too much, people will be afraid and may even report it.
If something goes wrong, this subcontracted intelligence station can also be cancelled.
The little fox was very familiar with this and agreed repeatedly.
"Let's go, it's getting late, let's go out." Su Ziji came out of the secret room and went to Ye Buhui's residence. As soon as he entered, all the maids in the courtyard knelt down.
