The Regent's Tender Darling

Chapter 573 Prefect

"My lord, why did you come in without making a sound?" Lin Jiaojiao had to admit that she was frightened when she first saw Yan Sihan, but then she relaxed.

As long as she was by his side, no matter how dangerous the surrounding environment was, she felt at ease.

"do not move."

The man's commanding tone was mixed with a hint of lingering, and his cool fingertips gently rubbed her temples. Lin Jiaojiao simply remained obedient and motionless.

Let the dignified regent give me a massage. If I say this, no one will believe it.

"Yan Sihan, you are quite good at it." She teased.

Although the movements are a bit unfamiliar, the strength is just right. Overall, it is better than Xuemei's.

The man paused for a moment, then said, "The land south of the Yangtze River is warm and humid. Does your leg hurt?"

This question was on point. Lin Jiaojiao felt a little uncomfortable in her legs when she woke up today. She warmed herself up for a while and felt almost nothing now.

"It doesn't hurt. I'll pay more attention."

In humid weather, she really should pay more attention, otherwise the pain would be really unpleasant.

"Jiaojiao."

"Huh~?" Lin Jiaojiao closed her eyes and hummed with a sense of enjoyment.

She likes the name he calls her. It sounds nice. It's not her name that sounds nice, but his voice.

"I have some affairs in Hangzhou and I will be busy for two days."

As soon as the man finished speaking, Lin Jiaojiao's expression paused, then she opened her eyes, turned to look at Yan Sihan behind her, and asked, "Is it difficult?"

She didn't ask him anything first. If he was willing to tell her, he would tell her now. If he wasn't willing to tell her, she didn't have to ask.

Obviously, Yan Sihan had no intention of hiding it. He slowly walked around from behind the Luohan bed, walked to sit next to her, and naturally took her hand and put it in his palm.

She could feel the warmth in his palms, and the coolness on her fingertips also warmed up now.

"Qian Conghua, the former prefect of Hangzhou, was accused of corruption and bribery by King Duan years ago, and the spies sent to Hangzhou also found evidence of Qian Conghua's corruption and bribery. However, it was the time when Lin'an was in trouble, and I ignored the matter. The money that was originally escorted back to Beijing for disposal escaped halfway from China."

"Escaped?" Lin Jiaojiao couldn't help but frown, her face thoughtful.

The original prefect of Hangzhou was named Qian, but the current prefect of Hangzhou was named Zhu. It seems that the prefect was changed.

"Well, the whereabouts of this money from China is still unknown. Due to my negligence at that time, all matters in Hangzhou were left to His Majesty's disposal." Yan Sihan's tone was serious, which showed that this was not an easy task.

She couldn't help but ask: "Who is the prefect now?"

Although Sister Qing told her about the Zhu family, the prefect of Hangzhou, she didn't know the origin of the Zhu family at all.

Yan Sihan said: "The current prefect, the Zhu family, was formerly the prefect of Hangzhou. Because there are many things in Hangzhou, it is impossible to ignore the prefect, so your majesty made the Zhu family the new prefect, and the original Zhang family was promoted to the prefect."

At this point, Lin Jiaojiao also understood most of it. Qian Conghua, the prefect, was a corrupt official, and the Zhu family and the Zhang family, who worked under corrupt officials, had their hands full... it was hard to say.

But now that Qian Conghua has learned from the troublesome issues, the Zhu family and the Zhang family will definitely not be so stupid as to do nothing.

So even if the Zhu family and Zhang family were not clean, I'm afraid they are almost clean now.

The prefect and the prefect are not small officials. They can be said to be like emperors in Hangzhou. If there is a problem, they must naturally find a way to solve it, otherwise they will leave trouble for the people of Hangzhou!
