The rich men's sons who had surrounded Zuo Qiuyu to seek information or show off themselves thought the voice they heard very feminine and attractive.
If such a delightful voice were to be calling their names, it would be such a joyful thing for them.
All the people's eyes turned in the direction of the voice and saw a slender, fair arm moving across the door of the horse carriage quickly.
In the next moment, a pretty face with beautiful features appeared before everyone.
At her smile, it seemed that all the beautiful women in the world paled in comparison with her.
In that instant, the noisy crowd became silent.
"My dear cousin, we're about to arrive," replied Zuo Qiuyu after being stunned for a second.
In this way, he had introduced the identity of this beauty to all the people around them.
It was then that Lin Mengya seemed to realize the large group of young men in front of he
The streets in the old capital crisscrossed and intersected with each other, and they were lined with shops with a superb collection of beautiful things. Compared to Wangtian City, it possessed much more character and charm.Compared to the lively Wangtian City, the former capital was like an old man filled with wisdom and rich life experiences.Lin Mengya's mind was especially perked up by the strong scent of medicinal herbs in the air, although she could only observe the buzz of the streets outside through the window of the horse carriage.The people whom Zuo Qiuchen arranged to receive them had been waiting at the gates for a long time by now.With someone to lead them on their way, Lin Mengya soon spotted the place where they would rest for the night.It was not a luxurious inn, neither was it some elegant post station, but it was an outwardly plain-looking but spacious and clean mansion belonging to some nobleman.
In fact, all the details recorded by the men in black after a day's observation would make any common person go crazy.However, Lin Mengya was blessed with the powerful Shen Nung system in her brain.One only had to recall how the system had completed analyzing the highly complicated medical manual such as the music score for the green stringed instrument.In the same token, the Shen Nung system would be able to completely analyze the situation in the 178 families in an instant.The reason for the dull look in her eyes at the moment was because while the Shen Nung system was operating, she would be too occupied to be concerned about what was happening before her eyes.While the fingers of her left hands were opening and closing, Lin Mengya was really controlling the contents within the virtual world.The characteristics of all the people were recorded according to the format she laid down earlier. Within t
A pained look flashed in Long Tianyu's eyes.Although Lin Mengya had been keeping quiet, she must have been very concerned about her temporal imperfection.For this reason, he swore he would have Lin Mengya healed no matter what price he had to pay."Alright, I get it."He responded to Lin Mengya with a low and tender voice while his large strong hand crept onto her right shoulder.Moving from top to bottom, he massaged Lin Mengya's right arm in the way that Zuo Qiuyu taught him.Zuo Qiuyu had once mentioned to him that if Lin Mengya's arm had not been massaged frequently before it healed, there would be sequelae even if it were to heal.Despite the lack of sensation in her right arm, Lin Mengya could not help but start to blush when she saw Long Tianyu attending to her carefully.She turned her head away and scolded herself in her heart for being so useless.Why woul
"I'm not going to force you into this, but before Cousin Chen arrives, he will have decided on the candidate. After this, you may choose to return to Dajin with us. At least no one will force you into taking up responsibilities over there."Lin Mengya lowered her gaze, appearing to be indifferent. It was as if she did not care whether Zuo Qiuyu agreed or not.Nevertheless, the more she spoke, the more Zuo Qiuyu felt bad.The overwhelming sense of guilt bore down on him and he felt as if he would collapse.After a long struggle, he finally sighed painfully and said, "I'll go."Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and looked to Zuo Qiuyu with surprise in her eyes."What?"Zuo Qiuyu must have made up his mind. He had decided not to run away anymore, but to take up the responsibility belonging to him."I said I would participate in the medical skills competition, and, please help me to win.
The maidservant called Min'er soon brought four cups of tea to them.The fragrance from the tea diffused into the surrounding and one could tell that it was top grade tea. However, after taking in the scent, Lin Mengya put the cover back on the teacup.She turned to Fanggu, looking as if she was about to laugh, but stopped herself."This is good tea indeed, but it's been made the wrong way."Seeing that Lin Mengya had refused to drink the tea, the other two would not drink it too.Moreover, they clearly understood the hidden message in Lin Mengya's words."Oh? How do you know if there's anything wrong with the tea when you haven't even tasted it?"Without expressing any opinion, Fanggu picked up her teacup and downed the tea with grace."For this tea you offered, I can tell the taste is not right even without drinking it. This tea was brewed using boiling water. The tea leaves had
"I suppose... that's alright. Please follow me, Your Highness."Lin Mengya got up and followed after Min'er.Yu An, too, got up and followed closely behind Lin Mengya in fear of any possible change of circumstance."Master, the princess says she would like to come in to have a look."Lin Mengya stood behind Min'er and watched as Min'er carefully opened the door.Once they entered through the door, it led them onto a corridor that had been partitioned by a screen with paintings of sceneries on it. On one hand, one would not be able to look into what was happening inside, but on the other hand, one would not feel stuffy as walking along the corridor."This way, please, Your Highness."Min'er was apparently very familiar with the way and led Lin Mengya towards the right.Lin Mengya had only taken a few steps before a deep frown appeared on her face.She quickened her ste
Xun Fang was the name in the register, where it told of her birthplace, her surname, which was Wu, as well as the information that she had entered the palace since she was six years old.When she was thirteen, she started to serve Lin Mengya's mother by her side. It was a short stint of three years before Lin Mengya brought her out of the depth of the palace.Three years in a person's life might seem like a blink of an eye.However, Fanggu had spent her entire life waiting for Lin Mengya's mother whom she built a memory around having spent only three years with.Min'er said that Fanggu would often sit on her bed dazing while staring at the plum flower pattern hairpin.Perhaps she was mesmerizing about those days back in the palace when she and Lin Mengya's mother used to keep other company.Although Fanggu's face was drained of its colors by now, Lin Mengya instructed Min'er to bring some makeup powder, so
If they wished to give Fanggu and Min'er a proper burial, they might very well alarm those people who were watching them.Lin Mengya was given no other choice but to temporarily keep the bodies of these two pitiful ladies in the ice chamber in the Crown Prince's Mansion.Throughout the entire time, Lin Mengya's composure had not only made Long Tianyu worried, but even Zuo Qiuyu and Yu An also found it bizarre,By the time everything was settled, Lin Mengya returned to her study and went straight into analyzing the situations of the remaining families.At this moment, Long Tianyu was in the courtyard outside the study, looking towards the window where there was a stationary shadow. The worried look in his eyes deepened."Are you also worried about her?"A crispy voice sounded and Long Tianyu could tell immediately that it was Zuo Qiuyu, who was just as worried.Long Tianyu turned around but did
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
