The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 36
"Wang... my lord, did my daughter cause you any trouble?" Lin Zhengyang held back for a long time before he could say this.

Just now, after Yan Nanchen made an excuse to leave, the regent discussed state affairs with him and Lin Xingzhi for a long time, just like in the early court.

Seeing that Yan Sihan didn't speak now, he just sipped his tea carefully, and the scene was very quiet.

So he had to ask this question.

"Princess is gentle and virtuous, she will never cause trouble for this king." Her tone was normal, cold and without warmth, as if she was about to get angry in the next second.

Yan Sihan didn't look straight at Lin Zhengyang when he spoke, but he always said this to Lin Xingzhi.

"That's good, that's good." Lin Zhengyang replied awkwardly, then raised his sleeves to wipe his sweat, and his heart beat faster.

After saying this, the scene fell into dead silence again, and Yan Sihan and Lin Xingzhi were very calm, only Lin Zhengyang was fidgeting there, as if there were nails on the chair.

After a while, a servant came forward cautiously, lowered his head and saluted respectfully: "Master, madam has prepared the table."

Lin Zhengyang, who had been terrified all the time, stood up immediately as if seeing a life-saving straw, and said to Yan Nanchen with a smile: "My lord, please move to eat."

However, Yan Sihan just put down the teacup, and there was a slight sound between the porcelain and the porcelain, which was crisp and pleasant.

Yan Sihan glanced at Lin Zhengyang, then said, "No need."

"Ye Ming, go find the princess and go back to the mansion."

This surprised Lin Zhengyang, why didn't the two sons-in-law stay for dinner today?Could it be that he didn't entertain well?
Still can't see him?
But if the regent wanted to leave, he naturally didn't dare to stop him.

Seeing that Yan Sihan got up, he could only respectfully say: "The old minister respectfully sends the lord off."

Lin Xingzhi got up and bowed his hands: "I respectfully send the prince off."

At this time, Lin Jiaojiao was still talking about the old days with Aunt Wu in the Orchid Tingyuan.

But after a while, Qingtao came in and knocked on the door, and said to the people inside: "Princess, the prince said it's time to go back to the mansion."

Lin Jiaojiao was a little surprised, it's only noon, why don't you leave after eating?
Why is Yan Sihan so anxious?
She was really hungry right now, but there was nothing she could do. She could only look at Aunt Wu and said, "Auntie, Jiaojiao will come to see you later."

Aunt Wu hurriedly stood up, subdued herself, lowered her eyebrows and said with a nod: "My lord, my concubine will send you off."

After Lin Jiaojiao left, Aunt Wu's expression became gloomy, she lowered her eyebrows and nodded thinking about something.

Mother Jin also looked sad, looked at Aunt Wu and said, "Auntie, don't be confused, brother Zhou's future is important, and what the second girl said makes sense."

"Ma'am, how can I pull you off the horse?" Wu Lian gave Jin Mama a sidelong glance, and warned: "This matter must not be brought up again in the future."

After finishing speaking, she was about to enter the house, but Mother Jin had no choice but to close the courtyard door. The courtyard door was not closed yet, and she saw a little maid carrying a bag on her back and wanted to come in.

Mother Jin took a closer look, isn't this the daughter of Mother Cui in the kitchen?Why did they come to their Lanting courtyard for the first time?
Wu Lian hadn't entered the house at this time, and when she saw someone coming, she hurried over to greet her.

"It turned out to be Miss Xiao Cui."

"This is the winter charcoal sent by our mother Cui at the order of the princess regent. If you have any difficulties in the future, feel free to send someone to tell."

Xiaocui's tone was neither humble nor overbearing. After speaking, she put down the big cloth bag, opened it, and found that it was indeed high-quality coal.

Although there are not many, it can burn for two or three days.

Xiaocui continued: "These aunts will use them first, this month's winter charcoal servants will be delivered in batches at night, and then I have to trouble aunts to open the door."

Seeing that Auntie was in a daze, Mother Jin hurriedly greeted her with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Xiaocui."

"Auntie, it's not appropriate for slaves to stay for a long time, so I'll leave first." Xiaocui said that and gave in, and Mother Jin returned the salute.

At this time, Wu Lian looked at Dong Tan on the ground, and for a moment didn't know what to do, the two girls helped her so much, they must hope that she would pull the eldest lady off the horse.

But she...doesn't want to take the risk, if she misses, that brother Zhou's future will be ruined!
