The Regent's Tender Darling

Although the imperial court has not issued a ban on going out, the battles on the streets have caused almost everyone in the capital to stay at home.

Xuemei went out to investigate, but when she came back she complained that she couldn't even find a pastry shop on the street.

Regarding the current situation, Lin Jiaojiao was rare and calm. It was not that she was really not panic at all, and there was no point in panic.

Fortunately, all the shadow guards from the Ling Mansion Courtyard and outings returned to the palace before these things happened.

So many people suddenly came to the palace, so it should be lively no matter what, but the atmosphere in the palace was mostly depressing, and everyone knew that things were going to change in the capital!

Lin Jiaojiao, in addition to seeing how well the tunnels were being repaired every day, would also take time to chat with Yan Sihan's grandfather for a while.

In the evening, Ye Luo brought her news from outside. It was from the Minister of Civil Affairs, saying that the little emperor suddenly fell ill a few days ago and was now very weak. He had not left the Yangxin Hall in the past few days.

As the regent, Yan Sihan was busy reversing the case of the Li family, so in the past few days, all the hundreds of officials in the court closed their eyes and rested, no one said anything, and they all went home when the time was up.

"The little emperor was sick a few days ago?" Lin Jiaojiao felt strange in her heart. Is it a coincidence or something else?

Ye Luo said: "Princess, the officials would like to ask the princess what she needs him to do recently."

Hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao raised her forehead and said, "It would be best for him to do nothing at this time."

Day five.

Early in the morning, there was finally good news. The secret passage in the palace was dug, leading directly from the backyard of the palace to Zuili Qiankun.

The matter of cultivating the secret path was done very secretly. She was sure that even Yan Sihan didn't know about it, and it was impossible for anyone in the house to know about it.

At the same time, Ye Luo told her that the rumors in Beijing had been completely stopped.

The Imperial Guards patrolling the streets of the capital also returned to their previous numbers.

The open shops on the street waited for a long time. After finally seeing someone on the street, they slowly opened their doors to accept customers and returned to normal.

But no one can tell whether it has truly recovered.

This groundless rumor almost caused the capital to be closed down. Most people in the capital gradually realized the seriousness of this matter, and they all understood and stopped spreading those things.

On the seventh day, envoys from the State of Yue entered Beijing.

As usual, the Yue envoys should have entered the palace first to see Emperor Danan, but the emperor was now ill, so the leading envoys came to the Regent's Palace to pay a visit.

Lin Jiaojiao went through the tunnel to Zuili Qiankun and was busy with her own affairs. Yan Sihan was not in the mansion, and the envoys did not see anyone. In the end, Yan Sihan's grandfather came out to receive the envoys.

This is what Lin Jiaojiao heard from the shadow guard after she came back.

Because Yan Sihan was busy, she thought she had to represent the palace to see the old prime minister off for the last time.

She hadn't left the house for several days, and it was just like normal outside, as if she was just dreaming that day.

The carriage stopped at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Today, the Prime Minister's Mansion has all the white silk in it, and everything has become what it was before.

She only took Ye Luo with her when she went out this time, leaving Xuemei to take care of the little loach. She entered the Prime Minister's Mansion smoothly, and a special hearse was being built in the courtyard! Many people are busy.

After taking a look, an envoy came to receive her.

It was a tall, middle-aged man with dignified features and dressed in white.

The envoy made a salute that she had never seen before: "Your Majesty, Princess."

She nodded slightly, and after saying something to the envoy, the envoy made it clear to her that he would bring Prime Minister Mu's body back to Vietnam tomorrow.

It was much faster than she thought, and she even felt that the Yue envoy was a little too hasty, but she shouldn't ask too much about this matter.

After mourning the old Prime Minister, she also left the Prime Minister's Mansion with others. When she came out, she did not take the carriage, but walked on the lively streets, feeling the atmosphere of the past.

On the way to a restaurant, she saw a person by a window on the second floor amidst the noise.
