[Looking for my eldest brother? He returned to the military camp this morning and probably won't be back until next month's leave. Looking for him is useless. My second brother? He's just a royal merchant; I don't even know if he can attend a state banquet. Even if he could, he'd probably be too insignificant to make a difference!]
【Looking for Third Brother? His official position is decent; he works in the Censorate. But I've been back for over a month and have only seen him twice. He's so busy, and this matter is so complicated. Forget it, I'll find an outsider instead!】
[If all else fails, then the Regent will do. After all, he was either injured or poisoned this time; surely he can heal himself! Hmm, he's the one!]
However, she had only met the Regent once, and he might not even remember her. Would it be inappropriate for her to go looking for him so rashly? Oh well, she'd try anyway!
Fu Beiyin: I'm not worthy!!!
Xiao Hao was completely confused. What was his sister saying? He couldn't understand it at all, but he didn't dare to say anything and upset his sister. So he just kept watching his sister, who was either frowning, gritting her teeth, or picking her ears.
After Lin Yuxin understood, she stood up and said to Xiao Hao:
"Xiao Hao, be a good boy at home, okay? I have some errands to run!"
Then I walked outside.
Watching Lin Yuxin's departing figure, Xiao Hao made up his mind: Sister, I will work hard to grow up and help you in the future!
"Snow Shadow!"
After leaving the mansion, Lin Yuxin prepared to head towards the Regent's Palace, but after taking a few steps, she stopped and stood awkwardly in place, stammering for Xueying to come out.
"master!"
Xueying appeared beside Lin Yuxin in a flash and greeted her respectfully.
"Hey Xueying, how do I get to the Regent's Palace?"
Lin Yuxin looked at Xueying awkwardly and asked.
Xueying: "...Master, come with me!"
After that, Lin Yuxin followed Xueying to the Regent's Palace without any obstacles.
Lin Yuxin was still somewhat intimidated by the magnificent words "Regent's Palace".
[This is the Regent's Palace? Are the characters on that plaque painted with gold? So extravagant!]
[But how do I get in? Just through the main gate? No, no, no, tomorrow the capital will be buzzing with the news that the second young lady of the Lin family broke into the Regent's mansion without a formal invitation and was thrown out by the Regent? Forget it, I'd better keep a low profile and climb over the wall. I need to find the Regent first.]
Lin Yuxin nodded to herself, then led Xueying around the main gate to the side of the wall by the back gate, and said to Xueying:
"Wait for me here. If I don't come out in two hours, then come in and rescue me!"
"…yes!"
Xueying agreed, but he knew that if his master was really captured, he probably wouldn't have the ability to rescue him from the Regent.
However, as a servant, one must risk one's life to rescue one's master, so Xueying was prepared to die!
Luckily, Lin Yuxin didn't know, otherwise she wouldn't have dared to be so reckless.
After giving Xueying her instructions, Lin Yuxin nimbly scaled the wall and jumped into the Regent's Palace. Scaled walls were a piece of cake for her.
After landing, Lin Yuxin looked around. It was a corner of a courtyard, and there were hardly any people around.
She stealthily began searching for people room by room, like a ghost.
Lin Yuxin's entry into the Regent's Palace was immediately known to the secret guards, who then reported it directly to Wang Yu.
"Your Highness, that Miss Lin has scaled the wall and entered our Regent's Palace!"
When Wang Yu received the news, he was also shocked. This young lady was really bold, daring to break into the Regent's Palace. However, considering the special treatment his master had of her, he ordered his guards to keep an eye on her for now and not interfere, waiting for him to report to the Prince before making any further plans.
Li Xiaochen raised his head from reading the official document, looked at Wang Yu, and a hint of surprise flashed across his expressionless face.
What is she doing here?
Li Xiaochen asked, puzzled.
"I don't know. Shall I go and invite her over?"
Wang Yu made the suggestion.
"Need not!"
Li Xiaochen refused, then got up and walked out.
Wang Yu watched the disappearing figure, his lips twitching. "You didn't need me to go and greet you yourself! You're just saying that to hide your true feelings."
When Li Xiaochen laughed at Lin Yuxin, he saw her hiding in the kitchen, secretly eating.
[Hmm, the food at the Regent's Palace is delicious. Hmm, I should eat more, because I won't be able to eat it again after today. By the way, where is the Regent? I've been looking for ages, and there isn't a single servant here. Is the Regent's Palace really that deserted?]
[They're all here today. If we can't find the Regent, what will happen to the state banquet? Will we have to look for someone else? And who will we turn to?]
Thinking of this, Lin Yuxin no longer found the roast chicken in her hand appealing.
She took a big bite of the roast chicken, then put it back in its original place, placing the side she had eaten underneath so it wouldn't be visible.
Yes, I'm really smart.
Lin Yuxin wiped her hands and prepared to go out and continue her search. Since she was already here, she had to see the Regent today.
The Regent watched Lin Yuxin's retreating figure before returning to his study. He then said to Wang Yu:
“Lead her to the hot spring in the backyard.”
"Ah? Yes!"
Wang Yu was puzzled, but he didn't ask and went out to take care of the matter.
Didn't you just go out to look for her? Why did you go through all this trouble?
Lin Yuxin searched for a while longer, but couldn't find even a single live ant, let alone any servants.
Just as she was about to give up and climb over the wall to get out, she finally heard breathing coming from inside the mansion.
"The prince is taking a bath in the hot spring in the backyard. Take this tea to him."
A man's voice rang out.
"yes!"
The servant acknowledged, took the tea tray, and carried the tea in one direction.
