Shen Yi's Darkness and Depression

Chapter 156

"Lord Sikong, long time no see, is everything okay?" Shen Yishuo said a little tiredly.

The third prince stayed up all night last night, looking for Youchen and guarding Yunwan, coupled with Dugu Xiaomeng's troubles in the morning and what happened to Ze Fenglin, which made him very tired at the moment, but due to affection, Shen Yishuo had to get Come to Zong Baifu to explain to Sikong Li, so as not to fall into the shoes of others and create a estrangement with him.

"The third prince came to this mansion, what instructions do you have?" Si Kongzhao seemed to be waiting for the distinguished guests and never left. On weekdays, he came to Zong Bai's mansion to give orders and never stay too long.

"Looking at what Lord Sikong said, can't this king come to the Zongbai Mansion to ask you for advice?" Shen Yishuo said politely, he had always been very polite to Sikong.

"The third prince said that, it's really an honor for the old minister." Si Kongzhao has been in the officialdom for a long time, and he has climbed to his current position relying on his personal talents.

"Today I just want to ask Lord Sikong about what happened last night." Shen Yishuo expressed his attitude so that Sikong could feel at ease, and he didn't want him to feel that he was here to ask questions.

"What the third prince is referring to, was it last night? Or this morning? The old minister is stupid, and I hope the prince will make it clear." Sikong Yu guessed the meaning of Shen Yishuo's words, and when getting along with people in the city, every word seemed Have deep meaning.

"My lord Sikong, I found a suspicious person in Temple Street last night, so I sent General Zefeng to transfer the guards of the city, but who knew that he transferred the guards of Tianfu City without your permission in a hurry, and the incident happened suddenly. This king didn't have time to ask." Shen Yishuo explained truthfully.

"The old minister knew that General Zefeng was there for business, so it's understandable that he transferred the wrong guards in a hurry, but..." Sikong Li didn't expect the third prince to confess his mistake to him, which surprised him very much.

"Just what? If you have any secrets, I hope Lord Sikong will tell you." Looking at Sikong's hesitant appearance, Shen Yishuo asked, he came here to find out the details.

"Your Majesty doesn't know something. Although it was just a deployment of troops, it caused quite a disturbance. After I learned about it early today, I rushed to explain it to the Holy One." Sikong Li shook his head to express his regret. It took a long time before I dared to report to the emperor.

"You have worked hard. This king also explained to the emperor that General Zefeng has left the underworld. He himself fell ill due to fright. Already." Shen Yishuo was very polite, he didn't want Sikong Yu to think that he was giving an order.

"Let the third prince worry about it. When the old minister got the news, General Zefeng had already been imprisoned in the underworld. Please don't blame the old minister." Sikong Yu took the opportunity to clear up his responsibilities. He didn't want to be imprisoned for no reason. In the midst of the turmoil, in this uncertain situation, once you stand in the wrong team, you will fall into the quagmire, and you will lose your life if you fail to keep up.

"Where is it? Lord Sikong is serious. I wanted to come to explain to you this morning. Who would have thought that I have been delayed until now, and I don't know why Lord Zefeng escorted his own flesh and blood to the underworld?" Shen Yishuo tentatively asked, He really didn't want to understand Ze Fengduo's behavior, which was weird and unreasonable.

"Didn't the third prince hear about this?" Sikong Li suddenly lowered his voice, he didn't believe that Shen Yishuo would not be ignorant of Ze Fengduo's original intention.

"What did you hear? My lord might as well say it clearly." Shen Yishuo asked calmly, with no expression on his face.

"Someone secretly reported that Ze Fenglin used the crown prince's orders to dispatch troops to suppress the common people. If people who don't understand the prince's nature hear this, they should not think that the prince is plotting..." Sikong Yu carefully observed Shen Yishuo. Very, even he, a man who has been in politics for a long time, can't guess what he is thinking at this moment, or what he is about to say.

"It's no wonder Master Zefeng personally sent his son to the underworld. He wanted to use this to clear up the suspicion." Shen Yishuo followed Sikong's reminder and said.

"That's right, you are not afraid of the shadow slanting when you are upright, and you can go out in broad daylight after righteousness kills your relatives. This move is considered clever." Sikong Li said very cryptically, and he didn't dare to talk about political affairs, for fear that someone with a heart would hear him and sue him again. shape.

"Well, I want to ask you, what is the truth?" Shen Yishuo was not in the mood to listen to Sikong's speculation, he wanted to know more details.

"According to the preliminary judgment of the old minister, it was a mistake. After General Zefeng sent the guards back this morning, someone sent the prince's handbook." Sikong Yu finally said something that Shen Yishuo didn't know, and listened to his advice. , Shen Yishuo's thinking became much clearer, and the doubts were also solved.

"Why the handwriting?" Shen Yishuo continued to ask, chatting with this old fox, I really can't relax for a moment.

"I explained the purpose of the troop transfer last night, and said that the prince molested the girls on the street, and the general used his prestige to transfer the guards. Does the third prince think this is true?" Si Kongqian briefly summarized the contents of the letter.

"My lord, can I show this letter to the king?" Shen Yishuo wanted to check the authenticity of the handbook himself.

"The old minister has already handed over to the Zongcha Mansion for the record, and the third prince can investigate it carefully." Sikong Li would not take the initiative to take on such a thankless job, and the Zongcha Mansion was willing to take it, so he couldn't be happier.

If the case is found to be related to the prince in the end, it will involve the situation of the government, so Sikong Li doesn't want to make any choices when he doesn't know why.

"The rumors are terrible. A small letter of explanation can actually spread that the prince wants to rebel? People's hearts can be described~" Shen Yishuo sighed, and he finally understood why the emperor was depressed.

"Isn't that right, the old minister was flustered when he first heard about it. After much deliberation, he still reported it to the emperor. However, there must be no ambiguity about the matter involving the prince. Besides, the old minister also heard that the emperor has recently started to make a will. I don't know if the matter of framing the crown prince will be related to this." Sikong Yu smiled obsequiously, he firmly believed that the news would not be groundless.

"Lord Sikong said so, there is something I need to trouble you who are so well-informed." Shen Yishuo hurriedly changed the subject, he wanted Sikong Yu to help find out the whereabouts of the mysterious person.

"The third prince is really flattering the old minister. If you think the old minister is still useful, just order it." Sikong Hao said flattered, it is rare for him to have the opportunity to serve Shen Yishuo.

"My lord hopes that your lord and the whole family, especially the night guards, will search carefully. If you find a masked night walker, you must pay more attention to his whereabouts and try not to let go of any clues, but don't startle the snake."

Shen Yishuo directly entrusted it to Sikong Li, he felt that he should make full use of the Zong Baifu, the largest department among the three lords, except for war and city defense, the rest of the time can only be taken care of by idlers?

The world is peaceful, and the common people are fortunate to escape from the world, so who should worry about?Convincing the public also.
