The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 10
"Slave..."

Xuemei, who was still dissatisfied with Zhao's attitude, immediately restrained her expression, and hurried to Lin Jiaojiao's side, lowering her chin slightly, as if admitting her mistake.

Seeing Xuemei's appearance, she smiled helplessly: "Okay, let's not make an example."

She did not know how many times she had said this, but this girl had suffered a lot during these years by her side.

Growing up together since childhood, it is no longer just a relationship between master and servant.

She looked at the maidservants standing not far away, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "This is the palace of the prince, not like the Chen family in Hangzhou. You have to be more cautious in what you say and do in the future."

After all, no matter what, Xuemei is just with the maid, and sometimes she can't protect her if she doesn't pay attention, so she should be careful in her words and deeds so that others can't find fault.

The Wang Momo in the palace is not only an old maid beside the empress dowager, but also a personal servant girl of the empress dowager when she was not out of the cabinet.

According to some rumors, this Wang Momo is still the concubine sister of the Empress Dowager, but there is no way to verify it.

Although Wang Momo couldn't do anything to her, with the support of the Empress Dowager, it was not difficult to secretly punish the maids around her.

Xuemei subconsciously pursed her lips, nodded quickly, and assured her in a low voice: "I will definitely not talk nonsense again in the future."

"Okay, help me go in and rest for a while."

Seeing that Lin Jiaojiao was about to get up, Xuemei quickly put her hand over.

It will be some hours before the next court, and it will not be too late for her to take a nap for half an hour.

……

"My lady, my lady."

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Jiaojiao vaguely heard someone calling her, and a hazy and ethereal voice appeared next to her ears, as if she was approaching from far away, and seemed to be right in front of her.

"Hmm...?" Slightly opened his eyes, the mist in his pupils hadn't dissipated, obviously he hadn't woken up yet.

Seeing this, Xuemei helped her up and said with a smile, "Ma'am, the eldest son has been sitting outside for half an hour."

These words made Lin Jiaojiao wake up for the most part immediately.

Big Brother is here already?Then how long has she had to sleep? Looking at Xuemei's smiling face, she said angrily, "Why didn't you wake me up earlier?"

Although the tone was questioning, it was just a casual statement.

Xuemei, who was arranging her clothes, said a little aggrieved: "Your Majesty, you have wronged the servants. I heard from Qingtao that today she retired an hour earlier than before, so the eldest son came early."

After everything was tidied up, Lin Jiaojiao didn't care about the rules, and hurriedly walked towards the hall. If it wasn't for the pain in her body, she might have to run.

How long has she not seen her big brother?Even she can't remember.

In her previous life, she didn't even see her big brother for the last time, but now that her big brother is still alive, of course it's hard for her to bury her excitement.

"Big brother!"

A crisp and sweet voice with joy came, and Lin Xingzhi, who was waiting for genuine tea, looked around, but saw no one on the plum blossom screen.

Still, as usual, I didn't see him, but I heard his voice first.

"Big brother!"

Not long after, Lin Jiaojiao came out from behind the screen, and she couldn't help but stop when she saw the big brother in a red robe and gold belt official uniform standing not far away.

Over the years, she almost forgot what her big brother looked like.

In her memory, the elder brother was gentle and easy-going, with a face like a crown of jade, with the elegance of a scholar and the coldness of a son of a family.

And the person in front of her covered her memory.

After Lin Xingzhi saw her, with a slight smile on his face, he cupped his hands and bowed: "My humble minister Lin Xingzhi, I have seen the princess."

Although they are brothers and sisters, the etiquette cannot be discarded.

After Lin Jiaojiao came back to her senses, she said to the maids who were still standing in the hall, "Go down."

After the maids retreated, Lin Jiaojiao couldn't hold back her tears anymore, and threw herself into Lin Xingzhi's arms.

Lin Xingzhi was not surprised by this, but said softly: "It's too old and married, why are you still crying like before? But you have been wronged?"

Hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao stopped her tears immediately, she dared not say that she was wronged.

Don't look at the elder brother who is a civil servant on the surface, but behind the scenes, he and Yan Sihan worshiped the same martial arts master.

This civil and martial arts is not casual talk.

This is what she found out later.

In the previous life, because she was forcibly taken by Yan Sihan, she found various ways to hang herself all day long, and her big brother who grew up protecting her from a young age naturally felt distressed.

After proposing to Yan Sihan to reconcile and take her out of the Prince Regent's Mansion, because Yan Sihan did not agree, Lin Xingzhi broke into the Palace with a sword that day.

This incident alarmed both the queen mother and the emperor!
In the end, this matter was because she pretended to figure it out after being coaxed by Lin Qinghua, but in fact she had to take revenge before it was settled.
