Lin Mengya smiled demurely at the crowd, but no one dared respond to her.
Her expression was definitely one belonging to a little devil. It could well give people nightmares.
"Why? Does no one believe me? If you're worried that your lives may be put in danger, please don't. My teacher once said that even if a silver needle were to remain in someone's body, he would only be half paralyzed. He would not die from it."
Lin Mengya waved the silver needle in her hand as if she were an incarnated little devil, giving the people the chills.
"This... this won't do. Please stop playing jokes on us, the lowly officials. We've not even heard of the art of needle control, right?"
All the people were starting to back out. They had been merely joking when they had said they had been sacrificing themselves for the sake of medical science.
Lin Mengya had long expected such reactions from them, so she merely grinned b
"Mr. Su, you're overstating, I'm merely showing what little I have. I wonder if I am now qualified to look at the Emperor's written diagnosis?" When Lin Mengya made this request once again, the old man Su Tong did not readily agree to it. In fact, the expression on his face spelled of his unwillingness. It was as if he had been put in a difficult situation. He rubbed his palms together and looked even more awkwardly at her eyes. "You could certainly have a look at it. However, it's getting dark out. You might be delayed in returning to the palace, Your Highness." Lin Mengya glanced at the sky outside. While she focused her attention on frightening Pearl, she had indeed forgotten about the time. Besides, she had already somehow expected Su Tong's refusal to her request. The written diagnosis of the Emperor's condition was very precious. It would not be too much to claim that it was a state secret. It
Qiu Yu, possessing a pleasant disposition, nodded at Baisu. While greeting her, he was not bothered by the cold expression on her face at all. He showed the parcel in his hand to Lin Mengya as if he was showing her some treasure. "When I found out that you have just entered the palace, I knew you would not be used to the food and would not sleep well. This may not be delicacies, at least, you'd have something special to eat." Perhaps it was because Qiu Yu had a pleasant face in addition to how he always wore a friendly smile when he saw everyone that Lin Mengya always felt that this young physician was very approachable. Waves of tempting aroma emitted from the table top. Lin Mengya looked on as he took out a parcel from his bundle, and when she opened it carefully, there was a whole roasted duck, still steaming hot with oil. "This is the imperial chef's special dish, and he only made it for me after
Lin Mengya came to hold Baisu's hands as well. It was a cold winter night, but with them warming each other, it didn't seem difficult to get through it. "It'll be fine. He and I hit it off. Besides, he has done me a favor previously. It proves that he is a good man. Do you remember? The first time I met you, Baiji, and even Xiaoyu, I supposed that we could get along well with each other. As a result, we became a family." Baisu helplessly sighed. She hadn't considered Lin Mengya to be an approachable master until they had gotten familiar. Lin Mengya had always been treating her enemies heartlessly, but she would become gentle when it came to those she cared about. That explained why many friends around her would like to sacrifice their lives for her. However, Lin Mengya had no idea about this. "Young Master told me to protect you before he left. But according to Mr. Qiu, we may encounter more dangers
"How prestigious you are, Your Highness. Tell you? Everyone in the palace knows that you have a privileged background, too terrified to do something to you. But I have to remind you out of goodwill, Your Highness, that you'd better not believe you can do anything you want with the backing of the Lin Family and Prince Yu. God is watching you, and no crook will be ignored." Jieyu Hui was watching Lin Mengya, her eyes harboring a deep resentment as if she was desperate to skin Lin Mengya alive. Chongrong Yun was blocking her way. Otherwise, Jieyu Hui would probably rush over to bite Lin Mengya. Lin Mengya showed her friendliness first but was met with an abusive scolding from Jieyu Hui. Lin Mengya felt angry, but she could not express her anger for the sake of Jieyu Hui's position as the Lady of Handsome Fairness. However, Lin Mengya could not bear to let her be free after the insult. "What did I do to irritate Jieyu Hui? Please t
"They should feel anxious, not me. One day, they will beg me to check it." Lin Mengya saw through them and figured that they were trying to make it hard on her. Unfortunately, Lin Mengya was not a pushover. Sooner or later, all of them would realize how stupid they were to stop her. "Alright, but Master, why do these people in the palace behave so impolitely? The servants in our house are much better than them. Look at them. All of them bluff arrogantly and swagger before you." Whenever she mentioned it, Baisu would become furious. Back in their house, whoever met Lin Mengya would behave respectfully. However, before anything happened, those people in the palace had come to insult Lin Mengya one by one. Lin Mengya could hold her temper, while Baisu was different. "It's common in the palace. Outside the palace, I'm the honorable Princess Yu, but in the palace, anyone we meet is either Lady of Handsome
Lin Mengya refused the company of Pearl and Agate. After all, it was the resting palace of the Emperor. Few people dared wander around his palace under such circumstances. The Imperial Palace was much more magnificent than Prince Yu's Mansion. It looked especially solemn and awe-inspiring with its golden glazed tiles and vermilion bricks. Lin Mengya and Baisu hid in a corner and locked their eyes on the patrolling guards at a distance. "I've figured out that there are four shifts of guards to patrol day and night. Only doctors can get into the palace. Concubines visit to greet every day, but they have to stay outside and send their things via eunuchs to His Majesty," said Baisu lightly. Lin Mengya nodded. The Emperor's palace was well-guarded. The possibility of sneaking into it was less favorable. "Is there any gap while the guards are changing?" Baisu shook her head solemnly. In fact,
After hearing of the game, Long Yinghua immediately gave her a curious look. Games may be the most exciting thing for him at his age. Lin Mengya tried to soften her facial expression so that the little boy could not see anything wrong. "Well, it starts now. Show me the road to the resting palace of your mother, can you?" Long Yinghua nodded at once and looked like he was hell-bent on winning. "What a smart boy." Lin Mengya looked around and cautiously headed towards the harem from an invisible corner after exchanging glances with Baisu. Lin Mengya knew well that a child was the most valuable person for a mother. Under such a circumstance, how could it be possible for a mother to get her child's nanny distracted? That nanny could have been keeping her child company. A mother would feel heartache when her child got hurt, let alone when Long Yinghua was playing the ball. At that time, he n
Several unwieldy boxes were piled up, but there was still a lot of free space in the small room. "It won't be too inconvenient to get things inside these boxes if they are piled up." Lin Mengya immediately ran over to try to move the box on top and found it difficult to do it alone. Then, some servants came to help move the top three boxes down. The three boxes were fastened with rusty locks. Only the bottommost one had a new lock. Lin Mengya ordered some guards and they made great effort to cut it in two. Lin Mengya immediately opened the box and saw Yinghua inside with his eyes closed! She pulled him out. But Long Yinghua was still silent and his face was ghastly pale with blue marks on his neck. All the servants began to cry. Their young master wasn't breathing, and what was waiting for them would be the most severe punishment! "Stop crying! Get out of her
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
