Half an hour later.

Lin Jiaojiao didn't know what woke her up. When she opened her eyes, Yan Sihan was still there, sitting by the bed, flipping through a book in his hand.

Even though he just opened his eyes, he noticed the movement of waking up. He looked sideways and saw that the girl was already awake.

He took down the book in his hand, looked at the person on the bed, and said, "But are you awake?"

Lin Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment before nodding, and then sat up with Yan Sihan's help.

She looked at the light coming from the window and asked, "Your Majesty, what time is it?"

"It's not three minutes." A very certain answer came to her ears.

She didn't sleep for long, but she felt...she slept for a long, long time. Now when she looked at the person in front of her, it felt like she was in another world.

Maybe he had fallen asleep and had such an illusion.

"Is there any news outside?"

"None yet."

Not long after, there was a knock on the door: "Your Majesty, my subordinate Ye Feng, Thirteen is here. He said he wanted to inform the princess of something."

Thirteen? Could something be wrong? Before Yan Sihan could speak, she responded first: "Let him in."

As she spoke, she hurriedly got out of bed and put on her shoes. As soon as she picked up the shoes, her foot was grabbed by a big hand. Yan Sihan...put on her shoes himself.

She was well dressed and more neatly dressed than if she had come by herself.

After straightening her skirt, the door was pushed open and Thirteen walked in.

He raised his hands to the two of them and said, "Your Majesty, Princess, please report from the Qin family. All six men of the Qin family were poisoned and died. No one was spared."

Upon hearing the news, Lin Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, obviously unable to react.

Yan Sihan asked in a deep voice: "Did he die under your noses?"

The voice was indifferent and filled with majestic anger.

Hearing what the prince said, Thirteen couldn't help but lower his head and replied respectfully: "Today, the boss of the Qin family brought back two roasted chickens. After inspection, the roasted chickens contained arsenic. The whole family ate them. He was poisoned by the roasted chicken."

Brought back from outside?

Lin Jiaojiao took a deep breath. She didn't let anyone stare at the Qin family one by one. She didn't know where the Qin family boss bought the roast chicken, or who gave it to him.

Thinking of this, her heart throbbed. Who could be so vicious? The whole Qin family, young and old, will not be spared!

Yan Sihan frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "Who investigated Qin Zhi's matter?"

"My lord, these matters are for investigation by the Internal Security Department." Thirteen replied respectfully.

They are not responsible for intelligence, so they will leave most matters to the Internal Security Department for internal processing.

Hearing this answer, Yan Sihan's face darkened. This matter was kept very confidential. Everything was done by his own people and there was no extraneous matter.

Therefore, there can only be a problem on their side or with the Department of Internal Health.

And the people on their side were all widows of martyrs of the Ling Family Army, so it was almost impossible for them to rebel. Thinking of this, there could only be a problem within the Internal Security Department.

At this time, Lin Jiaojiao suddenly thought of Mrs. Qin, so she asked, "Where is Mrs. Qin's wife? Has something happened?"

"I won't report it for the time being, my subordinates don't know."

She scolded softly: "Ask!"

"yes."

Thirteen quickly handed over his hand, glanced at the regent's face, and saw that there was nothing wrong with him, turned around and left.

The deaths of the entire Qin family seemed to prove something to them. Qin Zhi committed suicide just to save his family, but in the end it was all in vain.

The people behind the scenes are really cruel and ruthless, and they do things neatly and will never leave any trouble for themselves.

At night, the night wind came. So far, there was no movement outside, and there was no disturbance in the court.

Among them, the Lin family, Prince Duan, Zhao family, the emperor and the queen mother were all normal.
