The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 265 Sleepy
In the evening, Lin Jiaojiao woke up in a daze. After sitting up, she became sober, but there was no one in the room, and it was getting dark. It felt like she was cut off from the world.

"Xuemei." She called lazily, rubbing her aching forehead.

Xuemei, who was guarding outside the door, hurriedly opened the door and walked in after hearing the voice.

"Your Majesty, you're awake." Xuemei walked over with a bitter face. Obviously, she was in a bad mood, even a little angry.

Seeing this, Lin Jiaojiao also felt strange, and asked, "What happened?"

Being asked such a question, Xuemei seemed to have opened up the chatter box, and said angrily: "Mother, Qingtao is too annoying! We just talked about Qin Zhi outside, and you don't even know what Qingtao said!"

Uh...she didn't know, so she asked, "What did she say?"

Xuemei said angrily, "She said Qin Zhi deserved to die! What a cold-blooded person!"

Seeing Xuemei flushed with anger, Lin Jiaojiao was silent for a while, and then asked, "Do you know why Qin Zhi committed suicide?"

Xuemei was obviously taken aback by this question, and after she realized it, she said slowly, "Because my mother is seriously ill and my father is a gambler, so I can't take it anymore."

While Xuemei was still talking, Lin Jiaojiao interrupted: "Qin Zhi poisoned the prince, this alone is a capital crime."

"Ah?" Xuemei obviously didn't react, her eyes were wide open, and it took her a long time to understand.

No wonder Qingtao said Qin Zhi deserved to die... So that's what happened.

For a moment, she didn't know what to say, no matter what the reason, murdering others is wrong, this is the truth she learned from the eldest son.

Seeing that Xuemei was silent, Lin Jiaojiao didn't continue to say anything, presumably Xuemei would also understand something, her stomach started to growl now, so she said: "I'm hungry."

Xuemei came to her senses and said hastily: "There is ham and chicken soup simmering on the stove outside, and the servants will bring it to the empress."

"Ah."

……

――The next day.

Lin Jiaojiao woke up earlier, and when she opened her eyes, Yan Sihan was still beside her. She cautiously raised her head to look at him, but the man was woken up by a slight movement.

No wonder she didn't know how to lift the quilt when she was sleeping with Yan Sihan, so a little movement could wake him up, if she just lifted her leg, the man would notice her.

There was only one dim light in the room, and even his face was so hazy, Yan Sihan looked at the man in his arms staring at him with wide open eyes, and said softly, "Are you awake?"

"Yeah." Lin Jiaojiao responded softly, it was still early in the day, maybe she had never woken up so early.

Probably because she slept too much yesterday afternoon, and she didn't feel sleepy at night. If it wasn't for Yan Sihan insisting on her sleeping, she might have stayed up until midnight.

"Yan Sihan, can you go to court today?" She asked casually, although it was still early, it must be almost time to go to court.

She wanted to wait on him to dress and go to court, after all, the nun had taught her this, but she had never practiced it.

Yan Sihan dotes on her and never wakes her up, and in the palace she is not restrained by her mother-in-law, so she doesn't have to get up to serve tea to her mother-in-law like Shen Shi.

Thinking of her mother-in-law, she suddenly remembered something. Ever since Yan Sihan became the regent queen, King Zhennan left the capital with his wife, and never came back after leaving.

"It's not early today, so I'll accompany Jiaojiao to the Plum Pool Pavilion." After saying that, Yan Sihan gently embraced her in his arms, and said, "It's still early, let's go to bed later."

For some reason, she, who was not sleepy at all, actually became sleepy after his pat, and after yawning, she stretched out her face to rub against his neck and fell asleep again.
