Lin Mengya just glanced out casually. Fortunately, the place where she lived was the furthest away from here. Otherwise, she would really think that it was targeted at her.
The small episode was soon over.
All the titled women went to the room in an orderly manner.
As it was a yard of three rows of houses, they had to enter the inner courtyard through the main hall.
As soon as Lin Mengya walked out, she saw that the imperial concubines who came from the palace stood outside the room with their heads bowed in order of their ranks.
It must be because there were so many people that the Empress decided to meet everyone in the open space of the inner courtyard.
Lin Mengya followed behind the several other princesses in a low key, and did not meet the Empress's eyes.
However, as soon as she stood still, she felt that a few eyes seemed to have fallen on her.
As she looked up, she
"Look at you, you're sweating profusely. You'll appear impolite if the imperial concubines saw you."Lin Mengya scolded him, but she still took the towel from Hongyu's hand and carefully wiped the sweat on Yinghua's forehead.As he was still a child, Lin Mengya did not want him to be burdened with so many things at such a young age.Even now, Lin Mengya still tried to create a relaxed atmosphere so that Yinghua would not be as frightened as them.She held Yinghua's little hand and took him to her own room, eating some vegetarian pastries that had already been prepared.Lin Mengya watched the boy eat with a smile while asking if something had happened in the yard when she went to pay her respects to the Empress."There's nothing else, but a person who claimed herself to be Aunt Yan brought a few servants here to look for someone. Hongyu watched them personally, so everything was fine."A
However, when the pair of calm eyes looked in her direction in a seemingly unintentional manner and met her eyes for a moment, a sense of insecurity rose from the depths of Lin Mengya's soul.It was the first time for Lin Mengya to avoid his gaze."Master, this way, please."Aunt Yan, who was walking beside Yunshen, had no idea about the episode between Lin Mengya and Yunshen.She just lowered her head respectfully and led Master Yunshen to the Grand Hall.Lin Mengya bent her head, suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, and tried her best to hide herself in the crowd.However, many questions arose in her mind simultaneously.Who the hell was that monk?However, no one answered her questions as everyone's attention was on the deepest part of the Grand Hall.As the Empress had left, these women began to be perfunctory about chanting. No one would really pay
Lin Mengya said in a friendly way, but what she said was really sharp.Old Madam Shangguan could be bossy to her by dint of her status. But a married daughter was like spilled water, and thus whether she lived or died was a matter of her husband's family.Her parents' family didn't have the right to say anything about it.At this moment, Old Madam Shangguan had understood that the girl in front of her looked gentle but was strong inside.Moreover, given the power of the Lin Family and Long Tianyu's current status, it might not be appropriate for her to continue talking about this matter.However, living a comfortable life all year round had made her used to criticizing others in such a domineering manner.What was more, Lin Mengya was a junior. In an instant, the barely amiable look disappeared from Old Madam Shangguan's face.She stared at the girl in front of her with sharp eyes.
As the Empress looked sullen, the madams didn't dare to say anything.After looking around and making sure that everyone was here, the Empress opened her mouth coldly."Today, the Buddha once made his presence felt in the Grand Hall. I asked you to gather here because I have something to ask you.""The Buddha has made his presence felt?" Lin Mengya was stunned and then looked into the depths of the Grand Hall."If so, why are these monks looking at us like we're enemies?""The Buddha must have made his power felt in a strange way," she thought."Your Majesty, just ask us. It's reasonable."In the crowd, a shrewd madam had begun to flatter the Empress..But the Empress just gave a brief nod before saying seriously, "The Buddha showed up and said that there is a great grievance in this temple, and it concerns the royal family, so I have to be cautious."
Lin Mengya, who was furious a while ago, suddenly calmed down.She coldly looked at the Empress and then at the group of accomplices around her. Suddenly, she realized what she had omitted this time.Actually, she was deliberately misled.She had been indeed very cautious. After entering the courtyard, she checked inside and outside in person, and she had also confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the meditation room. That was why she had lost the best time to turn the tables.Moreover, since the day Aunt Yan began to look for Beauty Cheng, she had carefully guarded against outsiders taking this opportunity to do something evil in her room.But, Beauty Cheng was already dead back then.Perhaps, from the day she moved in, Beauty Cheng was already in the dry well in her courtyard.Unfortunately, she had not noticed it.Besides, Lin Mengya had also guessed why she had no
In the woodshed, Lin Mengya was calmly analyzing the current situation.The Empress's people were keeping watch closely outside. At least on the surface, she could not find faults with the Empress.It would take at least two more days to complete the religious ceremony. Combined with the preparation time for returning to the city, she would have to endure for at least another three days in the woodshed.The only urgent thing that worried her now was that no one could send the news of her being locked up to Long Tianyu.The Empress would definitely make sure that no one in the temple spread this news. Moreover, Hongyu and the others were probably being watched.Their only chance of contact with the outside world was when Qinghu made occasional visits to the courtyard where she lived.If even Qinghu did not get the chance to go to her courtyard, she would be in an even more passive position.
Lin Mengya sat cross-legged on the straw bale with a slight smile.Although she did not know what led her into that state of mind just now, one thing was certain: from now on, this evil monk Yunshen's trick could no longer affect her."What's going on? Didn't you say that you could make her submit herself to me?"Princess Tiancheng raised her eyebrows, stared at Monk Yunshen in front of her, and asked with great dissatisfaction."It's impossible! No one can be immune to the Buddhist incense, no one!" Yunshen said.He was even more agitated than Tiancheng, as his trick had never failed to work on anyone.The pungent fragrance in the courtyard became stronger. Lin Mengya frowned and waved her hand. As the fragrance became stronger, the rotten smell mixed in it became more distinct.The Buddhist incense smelled even more pungent than a burnt corpse."Stop it. You don't have to
After Yunshen left for a long time, the servants in charge of watching over Lin Mengya crept back.Lin Mengya was angry, but she knew that it was not worthwhile to be angry with them.After all, they were all the Empress's lackeys, and their disobedience would displease their master.As the rotten smell gradually dissipated, Lin Mengya was surprised to find that the Shen Nung system failed to detect what psychedelic the Buddhist incense contained or find its molecular formula.Could it be a kind of substance whose molecular formula had not been discovered?Lin Mengya thought it was very likely.After all, now she was in a world different from the one she came from. As time went by, there were indeed a lot of drugs that had completely disappeared from the world.Lin Mengya calmed herself down. Yunshen's failure to kill her did not mean that the Empress would let her go.Toda
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
