The Regent's Tender Darling

Lin Jiaojiao asked: "Is there anything else?"

They both shook their heads, saying that they only knew so much and nothing else.

Yao Guanglai on the side was about to speak when Lin Jiaojiao looked over and Yao Guanglai immediately became quiet.

She looked at Yao Guanglai, then looked at the two beggars again, and said to them: "I heard that someone among you said that Jia Gugang secretly replaced the beams at night. If you spread rumors about the public, you will be beheaded."

As soon as these words came out, the two beggars were so frightened that they froze and stared at the floor with their eyes wide open.

They only had the word "decapitation" in their minds. When they realized what was happening, they quickly knelt down, shaking like chaff.

Ergou trembled and said: "Princess, it's not us who spread the rumors, we also heard what others said."

"Yeah, we heard what others said." Daniel quickly agreed, they couldn't bear this responsibility.

After hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao said "Oh" in a gentle and gentle manner, with a slight curl of the corners of her lips, and a cold look in her eyes as she asked, "Why didn't you tell me just now?"

Hearing this, the two of them were frightened, as if their throats were blocked. How could they dare to say such things casually, especially when the person in front of them was the princess.

Although they are just beggars, they also know that there are many things that they cannot talk nonsense about. These things are very involved and they cannot bear this responsibility.

In order to save his life, Ergou confided directly: "We know a cook in Jia Granary Labor Camp. We beggars often go to beg for food, and he will give it to us. We heard the cook bragging to others while eating. ”

"Cook?" Lin Jiaojiao asked suspiciously.

Ergou nodded and said with certainty: "The guy said that they had made money again by replacing the beams. He also said that he wanted to build a big house and find a beautiful wife. Someone later sent firewood. It was all good wood. Someone suggested He said that it was not cost-effective to use the wood cut from the beams to burn the fire, so he had to sell it to make money."

Seeing that Ergou started to talk nonsense, she smiled softly. It seemed that she was afraid, so she hurriedly vomited out everything she knew.

Seeing that Ergou had said so much, Daniel thought for a while and added not to be outdone: "The labor camp has been working after midnight for several nights in a row, and the water transport terminal has also been sending things non-stop at night."

In the end, I really didn’t know what to say. It seemed like everything I knew had been said.

The two began to kowtow: "Princess, this is all we know."

Lin Jiaojiao didn't say anything. The water transport terminal transported unknown goods at night, and Jia's barn was under construction in the middle of the night. The secret replacement of beams was the most suspicious point!

She looked at Eleven who was guarding the door and said, "Send someone to inform the prince about this."

"Yes." Eleven responded.

After asking about Jia's granary, it was time for her to ask how these two people entered the capital.

She knew that the late emperor had issued an order many years ago to send all the floating population in the capital back to their place of origin, and to make proper arrangements for the people who had no place of origin.

From then on, the population entering and leaving Beijing must be recorded, and floating people like these will definitely not be able to enter Beijing.

Asked: "How did you come to the capital?"

Ergou was stunned for a moment, but he still cautiously replied: "We came by boat."

This answer made people feel as if they didn't listen. Xuemei frowned and said, "I'm asking how you entered the city."

Ergou quickly replied: "I came in through the water gate at night."

They were on a boat arranged by Tianba and his group, and it was also the city that Tianba and his group took them into.

The capital is even more prosperous and lively than Lin'an, but their original plan of 300 wen per person per day has become 500 wen per person per day.

It's not easy to go hungry in the capital, but you will be beaten if you don't have enough money.
