As Lin Mengya expected, Baili Wuchen flipped when he heard what she said.
The last thing someone like him could bear, was to have his ambition and achievements denied. He would not allow anyone to consider everything he had done to be useless, especially his enemy, Lin Mengya.
"You know nothing at all! He has to be heartless in order to achieve his ambition. Meaningless kindness would destroy him one day!"
Baili Wuchen was very stubborn. Even at this moment, he still thought that he was right, while Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu, who refused to take his advice, were wrong.
"It's not meaningless. He is showing his tolerance and manners. But you even framed your uncle, who treated you as his own son, just to fulfil your ambition. And you say you are doing this for Long Tianyu's good? No! You did this for yourself, to get a higher status and more power!"
Lin Mengya's speech totally irritated Baili Wuchen.
"Alright, stop now." Lin Mengya had to stop Qinghu from sneering at Long Tianyu. No matter what, Long Tianyu got injured in order to save her. She would not requite kindness with enmity. She knew Long Tianyu's suffering. Although they betrayed him, they died in the end. Long Tianyu would not be that indifferent as to ignore their death. He had a deep love for them, but he always concealed his real feelings inside. "It's late. Sleep early. Tell Baizhi to prepare a bowl of sedative soup. I promise what happened tonight, will not happen again." Under the light, he had a warm gaze in his eyes. Lin Mengya nodded obediently and did as he said. She went into the inner room. Obviously, Qinghu and Xiaoyu were supposed to leave as well. The four maids took Snow and the baby tiger into the inner room, and were comforting Lin Mengya. The two tigers had grown bigger and were now closer than ever to
"Your Highness, don't be angry with her." Yun Ruo looked emotionless, while Concubine De was utterly discomfited. "Don't be angry with her? She is already starting to make decisions for me. If I don't remove her, the whole Prince Yu's Mansion would not respect me!" Concubine De appeared to quieten down, but in fact, she hated Lin Mengya immensely. "Your Highness, I heard that lots of officials have submitted a written petition that Princess Yu should enter the Palace to treat His Majesty. Her Highness wanted to refuse, but those officials are stubborn. Lin Mengya is really ingenious to be able to persuade those officials to let her enter the Palace. However, she can't know her future will be when she enters the Palace." Yun Ruo said this in a soft, gentle manner. But actually, there were vicious words hidden in what she said. "Oh? I did not know that. I really thought too lowly of her. If she really
His answer finally, was to the point. Lin Mengya thought about it for a while, and did not speak yet. She had guessed from confrontations with Xin Li that Xiaoyu was not one of the Xin family. Wanyan, if her memory served her right, was the family name of the royal family in Lie Yun. "Xiaoyu comes from the royal family?" "Since Xiaoyu has been wandering about in society, he has not built a solid foundation yet. If you just let him inherit the mantle in such an abrupt way, he might become a target. How will you deal with that? I can't allow anyone to hurt him. It's okay to take him away, but promise me, no matter what, keep him safe." "If it's related to the royal family, or the supreme position of being the king, Xiaoyu will have many difficulties waiting for him. But he has no power in Lie Yun, because he stayed in Dajin for so many years." "If he suddenly shows up in Lie Yun, others would purposely
The atmosphere had relaxed a great deal perhaps because Lin Mengya had agreed to let Xiaoyu return to Lie Yun. Xiaoyu stopped brooding and his smiles were longer forced. Lin Mengya breathed a sigh of relief. She had finally made the right decision. What could Lie Yun do after all? Even if Xiaoyu were to meet with any danger, she would go to save him regardless of the distance between them. "This is a dove that the prince had especially for us. I heard it's really intelligent. You will bring it back with you to Lie Yun. This way, you'd be able to send me letters no matter where you are." Obviously, the maids had never seen such an adorable little thing and they all gathered around its cage. Although the bird was just a young dove, it was proudly keeping its head high, as if it was looking at the people surrounding it with disdain. Now the lasses' playful hearts had been stirred, they begged Lin Mengya to let it out of its cage.
It would be disastrous if Baili Wuchen had sent his men to attack Baiji and Baishao! "Follow me, everyone!" Lin Mengya lifted the hem of her coat as she hurried into the garden. Once there, she gathered all the guards she could find. Baishao and Baiji had gone to the mansions of the relatives and elders to deliver some warm cotton clothing and food. Although these places were not far from the prince's mansion, Lin Mengya, being thoughtful, had arranged for them to ride on two sedans on the way there. Although these two maidservants were quick-witted, they did not know any martial arts. They would not be able to defend themselves if someone tried to capture them. As Lin Mengya started getting more anxious, she quickened her steps. Eventually, she jogged all the way back to the gates of the prince's mansion. "Is there something important and urgent that you've called for us, Mistress?" Li
There was a commotion by the time they arrived at Liuxin Courtyard. The moment Lin Mengya stepped through the entrance, Xiaoyu and Qinghu were all ready to set out to save Lin Mengya, holding their long swords in their hands. When they abruptly saw Lin Mengya coming into the courtyard, their eyes were widened in shock. "Are you... you alright, Elder Sister?" Without hesitation, Xiaoyu threw himself into Lin Mengya's arms. His pair of doe eyes were glistening with tears. Lin Mengya shot Qinghu a puzzled look. Since when did this little guy start to be so emotional? "I'm fine now. The bad guys had been chased away by Lin Kui and his guards. Don't worry, am I not standing before your eyes unharmed?" The little guy who buried himself in Lin Mengya's chest was still trembling. Not far from them, Wanyan Lie was rushing towards them. However, his face was injured and his clothes were in disarr
"Master, it's not what you think. Prince Yu is just concerned for your safety. Isn't it also good for us to stay in the mansion and not go out?" Baizhi tugged at Lin Mengya's sleeves gently. She did not understand how just a few words from the prince had stupefied her. "Absolutely, lass. Long Tianyu may sound severe, but it's definitely because he's concerned for your safety." Qinghu forced a smile on his face and tried to sound casual, but there was a worried look in his eyes. He could totally empathize with how Lin Mengya was feeling. However, Long Tianyu was not his usual self today. He should know that Lin Mengya was not the type to stir up trouble for no reason. "I know. I guess everyone's tired by now, so go back and rest. I want some quiet for myself." With a few steps, Lin Mengya entered the inner chambers and locked herself inside. At the moment, her mind was preoccupied with the last statem
The corners of Lin Mengya's mouth curled up into an easy and elegant smile. She lifted her eyes to the sky dotted with clouds outside the courtyard. If she broke free from the framework of this mansion, she would be able to fly as high as she wanted. "Indeed, I wish I could leave. This is not my rightful place after all. Instead of being like a bird in a cage, I'd much rather be one that is free in the wild." There was a look of longing for freedom in Lin Mengya's dark black eyes. On the other hand, hidden in Qinghu's eyes was a look of regret in spite of the smile at the corner of his mouth. Even he was unaware that he had been attracted to this lady in a long elegant robe. Though not seductive, he was secretly drawn by her beautiful complexion. Be it him or Xiaoyu and the man hiding in Qinwu Courtyard, their hearts had been unknowingly drawn to her. How could such a girl hide herself
The wolves didn't come forward, but she heard the sound of leaves rubbing together.Looks like it was the head wolf.Lin Menya wasn't the least bit intimidated, but the head wolf's behavior was strange, it didn't make an attacking gesture.Instead"White!"The first rays of morning light blossomed and she saw the white pelt, hidden in the shadows.Heart racing, she embraced the huge figure that came hurtling at her.Unexpectedly, her little white, won!"You're really good, you came and singled out someone's boss, okay, a bit of my style!"The surprise made Lin Menya relax her entire body, but something wasn't quite right with Xiao Bai.After it plopped down on Lin Menya's body, it actually didn't move.Scared, she thought what was wrong and cleanly checked the wound for White.But what I didn't expect to hear first, was the little one's hoots and hollers.After half a day's messing around, Kohaku was exhau
"But, but we don't have silver, food and weapons, and how can we fight against those people with these 2,000 people and more?"Nie Qing stuttered a bit, he had been to the battlefield, naturally he knew that these things were not a matter of having many people."These, I have my own ways. But right now, it's a perfect time to sharpen. After dawn, the guards stationed inside and outside of Kanakura City will definitely search the mountain. If utilized properly, these two thousand or so people will become the heart of Jin Cang City. At that time, we'll eat away at these people's power little by little."An extremely large plan formed in her mind.Though she knew that there was no rush, right now, it was sort of the only way to house the two thousand or so people."You mean, let us occupy the mountain as king? That won't work, in case if the Wei people slow down and concentrate their forces on attacking us, how can we defend ourselves with just these two t
The one who spoke, was not very tall, and had only suffered a little because he was a prisoner of war.But in the end, after the army, baptized by war, the essence is still good.And, he's probably the superior of those five.The five men stood behind him out of habit, not saying a word.Lin Menya glanced at the man and couldn't help but light up.His eyes were clear and godly, with only the undaunted defiance of a soldier, without half the slipperiness and accidents of a soldier's oil, only a good soldier.The heart, too, is in the right place."In a while, let's go into the mountains and hide for a while first, with so many people, there's always a need for laws and rules. Since you've been in the army, I'd like to ask you to do these things, is that okay?"The man didn't realize that the GodEmperor was actually going to entrust him with such a thing.At once, the flame of grandeur in the man's heart was ignited.He looke
She quietly picked up the raw meat and practically crawled her way to the man's back, getting closer and closer to the man as she practically held her breath.Suddenly, the man turned his head around in a flash as if he had sensed something.Lin Mengya didn't care about anything else, the raw meat in her hand that was dipped in anesthetic, gagged the man's mouth at once.The man, shocked and angry, tries to escape.But she didn't know where the strength came from, both hands wrapped around the man's neck and tightly stuffed the large chunk of raw meat in the head of the man's mouth, refusing to part.The man, of course, was much stronger than she was, and only panicked for a moment before using his hand to tug at the flesh around his mouth.Lin Mengya was in a hurry and kneed the man in one of the acupoints on his waist.The blow was so steady and hard that the man lost a lot of strength at once, and her hand, never left the raw flesh.
Looking at the lock that was half a pound heavy, Gong Ping sighed.In fact, to this day, he didn't know who this fuss was really about.But looking at Missy's distraught look, he didn't dare to ask more.All I know is that what the lady is looking for is a large metal cage."Let's find it first, and be careful this time before someone sees us."Locked warehouses are usually guarded.This is the boundary of Kanakura Harbor, and those who are in charge of the patrol are also from Kanakura Harbor.These are the crew members who work on the ship and make their rounds on weekdays when they have nothing else to do.Lin Menya and Gong Ping dodged a group of people by virtue of their skinny bodies.But soon they were lost in the midst of dodging."How much longer do we have to look, miss?"The two crouched in the corner, Lin Moya's eyes, tightly focused on a crew that had just disappeared.Just now, they were so close t
If the nominal Gong Ya was still here, then she could have arrogantly and incomparably fought the auction with the intention of competing with the other party.But on the contrary, she couldn't easily reveal her identity.If one Lin Mengmai wasn't enough of a warning, then adding another Zhu Yan made the problem much more obvious.Lin Mengya was also thinking of a countermeasure, if it really didn't work, she would repeat her trick and use the same trick that Bai Su had used earlier to muddle through.But now that she was unprepared, it would be bad to reveal anything instead.However, the bidding didn't quite end there.Once they heard the Mu family bidding, the general public wouldn't dare to follow them.But there were still one or two, who felt that the teenager and the beast were strange, and had the guts to call for a price.Soon, the price climbed to six thousand taels.Those few families had subsided, the expensive price
But the third auction, however, made every Gong family member's heart feel a bit clogged.Because on the list, there were three dozen people from the Gong family that were being auctioned off as house slaves.Those people are the deepest hidden scars of the Gong family.From the moment the five sons of the Gong family entered, the atmosphere was, well, somewhat oppressive."My lord, the people sent by the lady have arrived."Gong Yang was still guarding the outside, but he led in a boy who was dressed, all ordinary."You go down."Gong Si waved his hand, allowing Gong Yang to leave.Turning, he asked in a low voice."What did Missy tell you to pass on?"The boy hung his head low, but pursed his lips and smiled."Missy said to spend the silver as she pleases and smash whoever she sees as disagreeable."Gong Si smiled along with him, but reached out and pulled the boy in front of a few other brothers."See,
"Hiss, why are you guys so heavy handed, trying to strangle me? Get out!"Lin Mengya yelled at the two female slaves in disgust, and the two immediately fell to their knees, trembling."Who are you playing pathetic and condescending like that for? If it weren't for me, you'd probably be dead!"She continued to curse, and Gong Si just couldn't stand it and ordered them to be taken out."Miyaya, how could you?""Why can't I be like this? Don't forget who's the head of the family!"Before the two slave girls went out, they heard an argument coming from inside.As slaves, they had to hang their heads lower to save themselves from the waves.How could the two of them know that since they went out, the atmosphere in the box had changed all of a sudden."Go on, keep an eye on them."Gong Si casually beckoned an attendant and softly commanded, the place where his line of sight fell, right where it should be, was the direction where
"I'm used to being at home. I went out in a hurry this time and didn't bring a few satisfactory maids with me. I see that on the list for today's auction, there are female slaves trained by the Rong family. I would like to ask Mr. Lu to ask for a few in advance, do you think it's okay?"Though she played it in the name of consultation, her tone was unquestionable.Lu Feng hesitated slightly, and she immediately pulled a face."I have let you earn a lot of silver, right, so a little request can not be done, you this business ah, do not often."She was not polite in the slightest, and her voice was not small enough to be heard by anyone around her.Gongbin frowned, not the least bit displeased that she was being so capricious.He was just about to open his mouth, but he was pulled back by Gong San."Big brother, little sister is a girl after all, delicate and weak, she should also find someone to serve her. How about this, Mr. Lu, these female
