"How did you know Mr. Zhao was with me?" Su Ruojin asked.
Xiao Yanchu raised the corner of his lips slightly: "Your people will follow my people, and naturally my people can too."
He was becoming increasingly certain that the young girl in his eyes was no ordinary Doctor Yan Yang.
How could a physician named Yan Yang possibly have managed to find a place to settle Zhao Guangtao and rescue him in such a short time?
Keep in mind that this is in the capital, not Yanyang.
The medicine that had poisoned the bodyguards felt somewhat familiar to him.
However, she didn't say anything, and he didn't ask.
He believed that one day, she would tell him.
Su Ruojin rolled her eyes at Xiao Yanchu again. It seemed that everyone was playing the "mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind" trick very well.
"Why do your men have Yunqi accents?" Su Ruojin remembered Rong Qizhou telling her that the guards had Yunqi accents.
"He's from Yunqi, so it's normal for him to have a Yunqi accent."
Su Ruojin finally understood; Xiao Yanchu was a cunning fox.
"So you have people under your command who are fluent in various accents?"
Xiao Yanchu smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"Ah Jin, why are you so protective of Mr. Zhao?" Xiao Yanchu asked, voicing his doubts.
His men were ordered to find Zhao Guangtao. After discovering him at the Donglai Inn, they seized the opportunity to bring him out.
It wasn't until Zhao Guangtao was rescued that Xiao Yanchu learned it was Su Ruojin who had done it.
Su Ruojin didn't speak, but looked at Old Madam Lin.
She has no right to make decisions for Madam Lin.
Madam Lin sighed: "Because Zhao Guangtao is my brother."
Xiao Yanchu's usually calm expression showed a rare hint of surprise.
He never imagined that the old lady living in seclusion in Yanyang would actually be the sister of the richest man in Yunqi Kingdom.
As far as he knew, the illegitimate son raised by Madam Lin was not good to her.
She could have easily left the illegitimate son and returned to Yunqi to live the life of a young lady.
I wonder what Lin Zhengshan's expression would be if he knew the true identity of his stepmother, whom he despised.
"So, Ah Jin, what are your plans next?" Xiao Yanchu asked.
Su Ruojin looked at Madam Lin and said, "Once my great-uncle is feeling better, I want him and my grandmother to leave Da Chu and return to Yun Qi as soon as possible. Once they are in Yun Qi, they will be safe."
If the richest man in Yunqi can't even protect himself back in his own country, then the Zhao family would have been completely wiped out long ago.
Xiao Yanchu nodded: "That would be best. As long as Mr. Zhao stays in Da Chu for another day, the danger will increase. I will have someone follow the old lady to protect their safety."
Madam Lin hurriedly said, "The Zhao family has already sent people to pick us up, so there's no need to trouble Your Highness."
To put it bluntly, she was just an ordinary woman, how could she dare to trouble the Regent?
“Madam, more people means more safety, and that way Ajin can stay in the capital with peace of mind,” Xiao Yanchu said.
Su Ruojin did not refuse. With the Regent's men and the Dark Alliance's men joining in, her great-uncle and grandmother's safety would be more guaranteed.
After saying that, Xiao Yanchu took out a black jade pendant from his pocket and handed it to Su Ruojin.
The jade plaque is entirely black, with a faint, shimmering light. The characters "Su Wang" are engraved on both the front and back, and two four-clawed golden dragons encircle the plaque.
