The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 714 The Truth
It was raining when we approached the capital, the river bank was sparsely populated, and the boat swayed slightly on the water.

Lin Jiaojiao, who had been sitting by the chessboard silently frowning, dropped the white piece that had been in her hand for a long time.

Silently fighting on the square-inch chessboard, the white piece seemed to kill a red-eyed soldier, desperately strangling the black piece, although the offensive was fierce, but it left a retreat for the black piece, and there were also traps in the back path.

Yan Sihan's hand couldn't help but pause, looking at the overall situation, there are also times when he can't see through it, but as long as he sees through the clouds and sees the fog, and sees through the appearance, he can win back a city.

In the end, the ship docked, and it became an unfinished game.

The husband and wife returned to the Prince Regent's Mansion with their own concerns. Lin Jiaojiao changed Yan Sihan's court clothes, and said softly, "My lord, come back early."

"Hmm." The man reached out and stroked her hair with a light and gentle tone.

The slender fingers gently tapped the tip of her nose pamperingly, she could feel the slight coolness of his fingertips, after being startled, she stretched out her hand to grab that big hand.

"Hey, stay well in the mansion, the king will come back to accompany you sooner."

"Yes." Lin Jiaojiao nodded obediently.

Smiling and sending the man out of Minghuaxuan, until the back disappeared from sight, and the smile also disappeared.

She said in a deep voice, "Eleven, where is King An now?"

Eleven cupped his hands and said: "Back to Wangfei, after King An returned from the Department of Internal Security, he was confined in Prince An's Mansion. His Majesty's personal guards will handle it, and no one is allowed to visit."

Hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao let out a deep breath, and then said: "Go and pass on Zhao Renhou and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials to the drunken heaven and earth."

"Yes."

……

——— Grocery store.

The two carriages arrived almost at the same time. After Zhao Renhou got off the carriage, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials also came out. The two looked at each other and said nothing.

But judging from the expressions on their faces, both of them were in a rather distressed mood at this time.

It was hard to follow the boss, but now the boss went in by himself.

After sighing in unison, the two entered the grocery store side by side and went to the third floor of Zuili Qiankun.

After entering, Lin Jiaojiao was sitting behind the long table. Seeing the two people coming, she waved her hands and said, "No need to be polite, sit down."

The two people who were about to bow their hands were taken aback for a moment, but they still bowed and said, "Yes."

Then he sat opposite the princess regent.

"Tell me, what happened when the lord was not in Beijing?" Lin Jiaojiao stared at the two with heavy eyes, waiting for them to speak.

Zhao Renhou, who was in a group of worries, was the first to speak: "Princess, Ben Hou came back late, and King An went in as soon as he came back. Yesterday, King An was released by the internal guards. It is said that eight students took the imperial examination. Fraud is still under investigation."

"Liu Shangshu, please tell me." Lin Jiaojiao interrupted Zhao Renhou and asked the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

The face of Minister of the Ministry of Officials was much calmer than that of Zhao Renhou, but his eyes could not hide his sorrow. He said quietly: "My lord, the cause of this matter is that some students have reported eight people for cheating in the imperial examination. After investigation, it is indeed suspicious. , so those eight students were arrested and sent to the Internal Guard Division, Wang An, as the chief examiner, had a great responsibility and was also implicated."

"In addition to the responsibility of the chief examiner, how important is it to contact Wang An?" Lin Jiaojiao asked.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials shook his head: "This humble minister doesn't know, but since His Royal Highness King An can come out of the Internal Guard Division unscathed, King An must not know about it, but..."
