The Regent's Tender Darling

"Prime Minister Mu?" Lin Jiaojiao was slightly surprised by this.

He frowned and thought for a moment and then said, "Prime Minister Mu is a scholar, so it's not surprising that he collects some scrolls."

"But Liushan is a little-known person in Danan."

Yan Sihan nodded: "Yeah."

"After returning to Beijing, the prince will visit Prime Minister Mu. Maybe Prime Minister Mu will know something about Liu Shan."

Yan Sihan nodded in agreement, then looked into her eyes and asked, "You're bored, why don't you go for a walk?"

It was boring, but Lin Jiaojiao didn't think much about going up on the boat. The cave was empty and dark, and the walls of the cave could occasionally be seen.

This trip made people feel somewhat depressed, and it was better to just stay in a daze in this small room.

I don’t know where this underground river will lead, nor how long it is, nor whether there is any danger in this underground river.

"Your Majesty, just let me be in a daze." She couldn't help but yawn as she said that. She was in a bad mental state and felt a little sleepy now.

The man whispered: "Sleepy?"

"Yes." Lin Jiaojiao nodded, rested her head on the man's shoulder, rubbed her face against his neck, found a more comfortable position and calmed down.

Her consciousness became blurred, and Lin Jiaojiao felt that her whole body was light and airy, as if she was about to fly, and she felt sleepy and restless.

All the way down the river, after the boat traveled for a whole day, it encountered a fork in the road. After Yan Sihan's decision, the team chose to go down the river.

Not long after walking, the underground river in the cave began to narrow, but it was only not as wide as the front. It was not that the boat could not pass, but there was still enough space.

Due to the narrowness of this section of the cave, the light from a large number of torches illuminated the entire cave. The stones on the wall that reflected light from time to time looked sparkling, as if they were embedded with gems.

Not knowing the daylight in the cave, Lin Jiaojiao just woke up from her sleep and stood for a while on the deck of the ship where several shadow guards were standing.

There were a total of three boats accompanying them, and there was a boat in front responsible for exploring the route. They were all members of the Yunchuan Navy, as well as some officers and soldiers.

The boat in the middle is where she and Yan Sihan are, and the boat at the back is Yan Laixing and others.

"Mother, it's cold outside, let's go in." Xuemei couldn't help but rub her arms. It was cold inside the cave, but it was different from winter. The cold here would make people shiver from the bottom of their hearts.

Even the wind that blows from time to time makes people feel eerie.

Lin Jiaojiao raised her chin slightly and focused her gaze on the cave wall above her head. She did not look back at Xuemei behind her, but became more serious as she looked at it.

Seeing this, Xuemei also followed her mother-in-law's gaze and saw many short columns above her head, and they were not very regular. The knots one after another made people feel panicked for no reason.

She was a little curious and asked: "Mother, what are these?"

Lin Jiaojiao didn't answer. She stared at the things on the top with a heavy gaze. After a moment, she said, "These should be stalactites hanging upside down."

"Stalactite?" Xuemei wondered, this stalactite shouldn't look like this.

Lin Jiaojiao nodded: "Well, it must have been knocked off artificially. As for the reason..."

After thinking about it carefully, she thought of the large ship in Shu, and said: "It must be that these stalactites blocked the ship's path, so it was artificially repaired."

Just as she was talking, Lin Jiaojiao glanced at the stone stall beside the underground river. She didn't pay attention to anything, but she suddenly saw something unusual.
