The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 174 Lotus Alley
"Ah?" Several servant girls looked at each other after hearing this, and then quickly responded: "Yes."

Although the few people didn't know what happened, but after listening to Wang Hao's order, there was nothing wrong.

The reason why Lin Jiaojiao ordered the people in the courtyard like this was because she was afraid that she would encounter some danger when she went out. If the bad guys came to Lin'an, they might come to the capital.

With such a big incident, there should be a curfew outside, and those bureaucrats who know a little bit of news should start to take precautions, maybe something will disturb the hearts of the people.

I don't know if the court can handle it properly this time.

"Your Majesty? What's wrong with you?" Xuemei saw that something was wrong with her, and looked at her worriedly.

She shook her head, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Qin Zhi who was in a daze, with his head lowered as if he was thinking about something.

She asked, "Qin Zhi, are you feeling better?"

As soon as she came back, she asked someone to take Qin Zhi to take a bath, and then warmed up with ginger soup, and then asked a doctor to check, but the doctor said it was nothing serious, just a little bit of cold from ordinary cold.

Now this complexion looks much more energetic than before.

However, Qin Zhi just stared blankly at the hem of her own skirt, as if he didn't hear what she said, with a lost look, which made people worry.

She asked again: "Qin Zhi?"

Everyone put their eyes on Qin Zhi, Dong Xue patted her on the shoulder and said, "Qin Zhi, my mother is talking to you."

"Ah?" Qin Zhi suddenly came back to his senses, and it took him a breath to react, and quickly bowed himself to the person sitting above him: "Your Majesty, the servant has just lost his mind, Your Majesty, forgive me."

"It's okay." Then she asked: "Qin Zhi, where have you been these days? I forgot to ask you when you came back."

Asking this question is not to punish Qin Zhi, she just wants to know the reason, so she can't disappear inexplicably, these days, she has been searched all over the capital.

Even Ye Ming said to ask the guards to help pay attention, but there was still no news. What surprised her was that Qin Zhi came back by himself today.

Although it would be good if she came back, as her maidservant, she still had to ask.

After hearing this, Qin Zhi lowered his head again, and said falteringly: "Your servant... The servant was captured by a group of bandits."

"Bandit?" This surprised everyone.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Zhi said again: "The slave girl was knocked out by the bandits at the Lianhua Alley, and when she woke up, she was already tied up, saying that she wanted the slave girl to be the wife of the village. The man was drunk and ran out in the dark, ran into the woods and bumped into a villager who was digging medicinal herbs, he took the slave down the mountain, and the slave came back."

After the words fell, Qin Zhi lowered his head again, showing a bit of lingering fear.

Xuemei's heart ached when she saw her, and she quickly comforted her.

Lin Jiaojiao, on the other hand, was thinking that the security in the capital was heavily guarded, and the bandits outside the city were encircled and suppressed when the Great Southern Dynasty was established. These bandits who dared to take root near the capital could hardly escape the eyes of the imperial guards.

In recent years, there have been no cases of looting by bandits around the capital. Could it be that there are some well-hidden fish that slipped through the net?
Even if there were, these people dared to come to the city to commit murder?What do the guards at the city gate do?
Immediately afterwards, she felt that something was wrong again. Qin Zhi said that she met the gangsters in Lianhua Alley. Lianhua Alley is indeed a remote place with few people, but this place is far away from Yujie Street. It is almost a place to go out of the city. What will Qin Zhi buy? Lotus Alley?
