The Regent's Tender Darling

Just when the young man was so scared that he swallowed and trembled, the old man also hid the hard pancake in his arms and subconsciously hid behind the young man.

Maybe they didn't pay attention, but at this moment a man walked out from behind the dark man. Since it was still dark, they couldn't see clearly. They saw the man confirm carefully and then nodded to the dark man and said, "Yes, it's them. ”

…

——Half an hour.

In an empty courtyard at the back entrance of the Prince Regent's Palace.

Lin Jiaojiao sat in front of the brazier and waited. Xuemei sat on a small stool and rubbed Lin Jiaojiao's legs. While rubbing her legs, she murmured: "Mother, your legs cannot catch the cold. You still have to wear knee pads. You... "

Before she finished speaking, Lin Jiaojiao raised her hand with a headache, interrupted Xuemei's words, and responded helplessly: "I know."

She just said something about her leg discomfort. Xuemei has been nagging her about this for a long time now, which made her ears tingle.

Knowing that Xuemei cares about her, she is not annoyed.

Xuemei knew that the empress had annoyed her, so she swallowed what she said next.

Then he poked his head outside and asked, "Why don't you go back first? How long will it take?"

"Almost." Lin Jiaojiao narrowed her eyes. She was well aware of the efficiency of Eleven's work.

Sure enough, half a quarter of an hour later, Yao Guanglai came in from the back door of the palace, followed by two beggars, unkempt and tattered clothes.

The older beggar looked to be in his sixties. He was holding a bamboo pole and an empty bowl with a chip in his right hand.

The younger one is in his thirties, but he is no better than the older one. He has completely broken one of his legs and can only walk with a bamboo pole, as if he is used to it, and he can even walk more efficiently than normal people.

These two beggars were the people from whom Yao Guang came to hear the news. At that time, the two people started chatting after eating the buckwheat buns he sent.

Today, I got these two people on the order of the princess.

The two beggars looked around carefully, their feet wearing straw sandals feeling uneasy.

Finally, he took two beggars and knelt down at the entrance of the empty courtyard.

Hearing the sound, Xuemei wanted to wake up Lin Jiaojiao, but Lin Jiaojiao opened her eyes on her own.

The two beggars raised their eyes and glanced at the woman who was wearing a gardenia red coat and skirt and a phoenix hairpin on her head. They knew she was a noble person.

When Yao Guanglai called the princess, the two of them were so frightened that they lowered their heads and did not dare to look again.

I was afraid that if I took one more look, my eyes would be gouged out.

"Is it them?" Lin Jiaojiao asked.

This was meant for Yao Guang. Yao Guanglai quickly replied: "Yes."

There were eleven men guarding the door with swords in their hands. The two beggars lowered their heads and were beating drums in their hearts. Yao Guanglai knew them, and he had given them buckwheat noodles and steamed buns last time.

They were stared at by the man in black with a sword along the way. They didn't dare to say anything or ask anything. They were just being chased like ducks on a shelf.

He didn't even dare to think about escaping.

Lin Jiaojiao looked at the two people and said, "Get up and answer."

After the words fell, the two beggars took a long time to react. They each stood up holding the bamboo pole.

Only then did Lin Jiaojiao see that one of the people had an empty leg. Thinking of what Xuemei said about Tianba and his group, she felt unbearable.

So she glanced at Xuemei, who quickly went to get stools for these two people to sit on. They were skinny, with only bones on their bodies.

The two sat down anxiously, never daring to raise their heads.

Lin Jiaojiao said to the two of them: "Don't be afraid, you can say whatever you know. As long as you tell everything you know, I won't make things difficult for you."
