The Regent's Tender Darling

Chapter 217 Small Officials

Lin Jiaojiao hurriedly entered the study. When Ye Feng saw this, he quickly bowed his hands to the princess and then said, "My subordinates, please leave."

"Your Majesty, I have something to report to you on Eleven." Lin Jiaojiao's tone seemed a little anxious. She also heard that the incident in Lin'an was caused by bandits, but when Eleven came back overnight, she found something different.

Hopefully it's not too late now.

Looking at Eleven's dusty appearance, Yan Sihan frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates recently went to Lin'an on the order of the princess to secretly investigate the massacre of the Lin'an government office." Eleven said with a cupped hand.

"You went to Lin'an?" This surprised Yan Sihan, and at the same time he glanced at the person sitting next to him.

"What was found?"

"My subordinates went to examine the bodies of ninety-seven people in the government office. All of these people were killed with a single knife. Although the bodies were burned beyond recognition by the fire, my subordinates discovered through poison testing that the cadres of the Lin'an government office were all first-time actors in the drama. He was poisoned and later killed."

"Later, my subordinates examined the bodies of the ninety-seven people. They found that the Lin'an County Magistrate and some servants were first poisoned and then killed with a knife. The Lin'an government office was slaughtered in an instant. There were no traces of escape or fighting in the government office."

After eleven words, Lin Jiaojiao said: "Your Majesty, I have read the testimony before you, and there is a group of men among them. Everyone in the Lin'an government office has been poisoned. Why can this group of men still survive?"

When these words came to Yan Sihan's mind, his expression darkened.

At this time, the emperor had already issued an edict, and he could not go to the palace first to reject the emperor's edict. The people from the Wild Dog Gang were closing the Dali Temple, so he had to go to the Dali Temple to investigate.

"Go down."

"Yes." Eleven bowed his hands and stepped back.

At this time, Yan Sihan looked at Lin Jiaojiao. Looking at the frowning little face, he stretched out his hand to smooth her brow.

"Jiaojiao has relieved my worries."

"Does the prince want to visit Dali Temple?" she asked.

"Yeah." Yan Sihan responded bluntly.

Lin Jiaojiao thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Can Jiaojiao follow the prince?"

After she asked her question, Yan Sihan fell silent, looked at her with eyes that couldn't see his emotions, and then softly uttered the word "ok".

"Go and change your clothes. I'm waiting for you."

She quickly stood up: "Okay."

Half a quarter of an hour later, Lin Jiaojiao had already changed into a guard outfit. Although the clothes were a bit big, the sleeves and leather belt added it to her body and made her look close to her body.

When going to Dali Temple, Yan Sihan only brought two guards, Ye Feng and Ye Ming, and the safety of the palace was handed over to the second-class guards Ye Qing and Ye Yue.

——Dali Temple.

After getting off the carriage, Lin Jiaojiao consciously followed Yan Si, wanting to stand in a row with Ye Feng and Ye Ming.

However, Ye Feng and Ye Ming retreated behind her.

"Follow me closely." Yan Sihan told her.

When they arrived at the gate of Dali Temple, the two gatekeepers blocked the way and shouted: "Who is this!"

It's strange today. It's understandable that the two people, the Prince Regent, don't know each other, but even ordinary people know the carriage from the Prince Regent's palace, so why do they have to stop it?

Ye Ming came out and took out his belt: "Bold! The regent dares to stop me!"

The gatekeeper swallowed when he saw the badge. He seemed to be frightened by Ye Ming's voice. He was stunned for a moment before he respectfully handed over his hand: "The villain is new. He has eyes but cannot see the mountains. Don't blame the regent. He doesn't know the regent." What’s the reason for Wang’s late-night visit?”

After saying that, he cautiously raised his eyes and glanced at the Regent.

Hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao frowned. This little official was very courageous. If he didn't open the door quickly, he actually dared to ask the regent.
