The Regent's Tender Darling

"Princess, don't worry, I will not care about this matter." Wu Congshu cupped his hands and said.

He heard from Jin's mother yesterday that if it weren't for the care of the regent, his sister would still be suffering in the Lin Mansion.

Therefore, he was very grateful to the Princess Regent. Now that the Princess Regent came to beg for mercy in person, he had no reason not to agree.

…

——The Prince Regent's Palace.

Not long after Lin Jiaojiao came back, she heard that Wu Congshu had come to visit Yan Sihan, and she was a little relieved for a while. Her trip was not in vain.

The next day.

At noon, the guards came to Shuanghua Residence to report.

It was Li Maonian who came to visit. She knew that he was not here to visit her, but to see Xiaoyun.

So he deliberately kept Xiaoyun by his side, and then asked someone to invite Li Maonian in.

However, today, for some reason, Eleven came in from outside secretly. Perhaps she saw Li Maonian coming in and was afraid that this person would be harmful to her.

Standing here alone in such darkness, she didn't feel any sense of safety. After all, Li Maonian's martial arts skills could not hurt anyone even ten times.

But in a real fight, it would be better than Xuemei, at least he could make her run out of the yard.

"Sir, please sit down." She said to Li Maonian, who was standing and looking at Xiaoyun.

Today, Li Maonian is still wearing a bamboo hat. As expected, he never shows his true colors as rumored.

After hearing her words, Li Maonian did not react immediately. He stood for a while, seemed to confirm Xiaoyun's identity, and walked straight towards Xiaoyun.

After all, they are brothers and sisters, and you can tell by their looks.

When Li Maonian's hand grabbed Xiaoyun's wrist, Xiaoyun was stunned. When he was about to pull him away, Xiaoyun screamed out in fright and dragged his body back, his eyes full of panic.

But because of his sister's fear, Li Maonian immediately let go, and Xiaoyun, who was free, hurriedly ran behind Lin Jiaojiao, with the shock in his eyes still lingering.

"Xiaoyun, you and Xuemei go out first." She said and motioned to Xuemei to take Xiaoyun out.

Li Maonian watched Xiaoyun leave the hall, and then said to her: "I want to take her away."

Hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao just pursed her lips and smiled. She was waiting for him to say this.

So he slowly said: "Sir, you are from the Jianghu. It is understandable that you walk alone in the Jianghu. However, my Yun'er has been lonely and helpless since she was a child. The princess redeemed her deed of betrayal from the Taiwei's Mansion a few days ago. I, myself, I don’t want this child to suffer the pain of being displaced again, but my husband’s request is justified and I have nothing to say.”

Just when Li Maonian relaxed, she added: "However, you are a member of the Jianghu. Not only do you have enemies in the Jianghu, but there must also be many people in the court who are unfavorable to you. This child Yun'er must follow your husband in the Jianghu." It’s also a storm, so it’s better to leave Yun’er in the palace, and I will treat you with courtesy.”

At this time, Li Maonian finally knew that the Princess Regent was very scheming. It would not be easy for him to take Yun'er away. He could have taken Yun'er away by force, but now Yun'er was afraid of him and instead trusted the person in front of him.

After thinking about it, he could only salute and said coldly: "What the princess said is absolutely true, but why would the princess put so much effort into a maid?"

As soon as she said this, Lin Jiaojiao turned her head and glanced at Eleven, who was standing upright next to her, and waved her hand. The meaning was obvious, and she asked Eleven to go out and stay.

Eleven hesitated for a moment, then bowed and left the hall.
