The Regent's Tender Darling

However, an old Taoist priest from Qingyun Temple has been discussing Taoism in Xiangguo Temple recently. Hearing that the court was investigating the matter, he laughed and said: "This must be a fake name used by some fraudster. This Taiping Taoist was a title hundreds of years ago. ”

The old Taoist priest didn’t know the specifics, but he heard from his master that there was indeed such a person in the past, who called himself Taiping Taoist. However, the master of the old Taoist priest had passed away long ago, and no one knew about it anymore!

After Lin Jiaojiao learned about this, she didn't want to worry about anything. She borrowed Yan Sihan's study and immersed herself in books.

She knew that there were many books in Yan Sihan's study, and there were shelves full of books on the second floor. She really wanted to know the identity of this Taiping Taoist, so she read some unofficial history books.

After all, he couldn't even find out who he was, and there must be no records from the Ministry of History.

I read several books in a row, but couldn't find any records about Taiping Taoists.

In the afternoon of that day, the people who went to Lin'an to check on the Minister of Household Affairs came with news.

The Minister of the Ministry of Finance was from Lin'an, and his family also lived in Lin'an. However, people from the Ministry of Punishment came to nothing and found that the place recorded was an abandoned courtyard that had been uninhabited for many years.

The whereabouts of the Minister of Hubu are still unknown. This money is equivalent to being taken away by the Minister of Hubu!

When the regent received the news, he also went to the residence of Gu, the Minister of Household Affairs.

The Gu Mansion's house in the capital is not smaller than some royal palaces, in fact it is even worse.

When he learned that the regent was coming, Gu Shangshu also came out to greet him. He slightly cupped his hands to the regent and said with a smile: "Why does the regent want to come to this old minister?"

The tone is relaxed and comfortable, like an elder talking in a homely manner.

Yan Sihan bowed his hands to Gu Shangshu respectfully. After saluting, he regained his majestic expression and said, "Master Gu, something happened in the Ministry of Household Affairs."

"Oh?" Gu Shangshu expressed his expression for a moment, then calmed down and greeted the hall.

The two entered the hall one after the other.

…

―――The next day

Lin Jiaojiao sat in the pile of books and yawned. It was getting dark now. No, it was the next day to be precise. Yan Sihan didn't come back last night.

And she had no intention of going to bed, and was still looking for new books to read.

When Yan Sihan came back, he saw a man sleeping among a pile of scattered books.

When I asked, I found out that this girl hadn't slept all night, and up to this point, she hadn't even had a bite of food!

When Yan Sihan took Lin Jiaojiao out of the study, everyone in Minghuaxuan had already knelt down together.

"Take care of it!" Yan Si said in a cold voice, which made everyone in the hospital breathe a sigh of relief.

It's not that no one has tried to persuade her, it's just that the princess is too stubborn and can't be persuaded no matter how hard she tries.

Lin Jiaojiao was sleeping soundly at this time, but Yan Sihan woke her up after entering the house and wiped her eyes with an ice handkerchief.

"Yan Sihan... I'm sleepy." When she wanted to close her eyes, she heard the man's cold voice: "Eat something first."

It was a bowl of millet porridge. It was hot when she drank it. It warmed her stomach and made her less hungry. However, she felt even sleepier...

After that, Lin Jiaojiao was in the study every day. If someone wasn't supervising her, she would sleep and forget about food.

"Mother, why are you working so hard recently?" Xuemei came to deliver soup and was surprised by Lin Jiaojiao's recent behavior.

When did my wife work so hard?

Lin Jiaojiao just raised her eyes and glanced at Xuemei, then lowered her head, returned her gaze to the book, and said, "Put it down, I'll drink it later."

"Mother, I think it's time for you to take a rest. It's not an option to keep going like this." Xuemei continued to persuade, how many days has it been? I really haven't left this study except for eating, drinking and sleeping.

Lin Jiaojiao made a silent gesture: "Shh!"
