After a long time, Xiaoyu loosened his arms, but he had to make sure that Lin Mengya was safe and sound.
Lin Mengya was really getting tired of the pestering. Thus she pretended that her wound was hurting again, so that Xiaoyu would sit next to her obediently.
"The matter in the palace has come to an end for the time being. The Empress definitely won't be able to get out of trouble this time. How is the progress on your end?"
Everything that happened during the day was actually a part of Lin Mengya's plan.
However, apart from the three of them and Wanyan Lie, even Madame Jingrou and the Emperor were kept in the dark.
In order to make it look as real as possible, Lin Mengya personally put on a good show.
"Everything is ready, but Wanyan Jing won't be able to come back for the time being. Uncle Lie followed our instructions and quickly found some loopholes. Now, Wanyan Jing is in a dilemma."
"I... I didn't! I'm always loyal to you! Please save me, Your Grace!" Yuanshu pleaded.Last night, she had been secretly sent to the Emperor by Xiaoyu's men.Although the Emperor was not bloodthirsty, he had a strong aversion to an evil servant like Yuanshu.The eunuchs only asked her a few questions, but she brought up the Empress as her backing and scolded them harshly.How could the eunuchs, who worked for the Emperor, be threatened by her?They immediately gave her such a sound thrashing that she called out for her parents and confessed a lot of evil things the Empress had done over the years.That was the reason why the Emperor was particularly angry. Although he had heard about some of the Empress's evil conduct, he didn't expect her to be so unscrupulous that she obviously regarded the imperial palace as her place where she could do whatever she wanted.Yuanshu, frightened by the
The eunuchs searched the Empress's palace smoothly. Perhaps the Empress was over reckless or she failed to hide the poison in time.Anyway, they discovered the poison in the Empress's chamber and her trusted maids' rooms in a short time.As soon as the eunuchs presented the evidence to the Emperor, the Empress collapsed to the ground with a gloomy look in her eyes like a defeated cock."What else do you want to say?" The Emperor asked.Even now, the Empress still refused to admit her guilt.The Emperor, who had run out of his last bit of patience, stared at her as if staring at a dead person."No... even if the poison is mine, I've never thought of poisoning you, Your Majesty. We have been married for thirty years, during which I have a deep affection for you. Why do you only like that bitch?" The Empress said with sadness and jealousy in her tone.She, who loved the wrong person in the
In fact, Lin Mengya had doubts about this.This time, Madame Hui made a retreat a little too promptly and decisively.If this was Madame Hui's usual way of doing things, Lin Mengya thought that she probably would not be trusted by the Empress.What on earth made her give up her backing so quickly?However, since Madame Hui had gone out to stay out of this, it would be difficult for her to return.Madame Jingrou had made a considerable improvement in tactics and means since she went through this, especially when it came to dealing with the remnants of the Empress's force.Although Madame Jingrou did not exterminate them, they had been plucked up by the roots under her leadership.It was absolutely impossible for them to stir up any more trouble.Since the Empress had collapsed, Madame Hui was most likely to take over her force.Therefore, Lin Mengya and Madame J
"Are you afraid? I don't think so," the dual-pupiled man said in a relaxed tone, as if catching up with an old friend.However, Lin Mengya did not dare to lower her guard at all. Although she kept silent, she was beware of every move of the man."At least now, we are not enemies. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Xin Yu. In terms of seniority in the family, I should be the Ninth Prince's uncle. By the way, Madame Jingrou and I are half siblings," he added.Xin Yu? Although Lin Mengya had learned that he was a member of the Xin Family, she knew nothing about the relationship between him and Madame Jingrou.Presumably knowing that Lin Mengya was confused at the moment, Xin Yu smiled and glanced at the woman in front of him with interest."It's no wonder that you don't know it. I was discarded by the Xin Family. No, besides me, there are plenty of people who were discarded by the Xin Family but can never lea
Xin Yu spoke very fast. Before Lin Mengya raised her doubts, his dual-pupiled eyes flickered.Her mind went blank for a moment. By the time she realized what was going on, she was keenly aware that a person other than the two of them had entered the courtyard."I'm done. Take her back." Xin Yu regained his unfathomable expression and said after taking a stack of letter paper from Lin Mengya and leafing through them casually.Feeling a blast of moist air, Lin Mengya heard the familiar bells again.She turned around stiffly and saw the palace maid as she expected.Lin Mengya didn't know how long the palace maid had stood outside so that she was soaked through and looked like a ghost that had just climbed out of the water.But the palace maid didn't care about that. After bowing to Xin Yu, she shook the bell and took Lin Mengya out.The heavy rain poured down, but Lin Mengya had to try har
Lin Mengya's eyes sparkled. Obviously, she was sure that Xiaoyu knew Xiu.He suppressed the urge to lie, as he could not help but speak the truth in front of his sister.He said, "I do know a girl named Dongfang Xiu. But how did you know that? Did anyone say anything about that to you?"His words were rather interesting.Lin Mengya pretended to be mysterious, neither nodding nor shaking her head.Instead, she looked at Xiaoyu with a smile, which gave him the creeps."Actually, I have no relationship with her. Our engagement is merely a joke between my father and her uncle. Anyway, I won't marry her!" He said decisively."Damn it, who let out the secret?""Oh... it turns out that you are engaged to her!" Lin Mengya deliberately drawled and stared at Xiaoyu playfully.She didn't expect that he and Xiu were engaged.To be honest, Xiu was a beautiful a
"Bang." Lin Mengya felt a burning pain in her cheek.The Empress presumably had a deep hatred for her so that the Empress slapped her personally.Truth be told, she did not have any favorable impression of this Empress who was neither smart nor merciful.If it were not for her intention to lure the Empress out personally, she would not have put on such a show."Bitch, sure enough, all members of the Fengyu Court are coquettes. If I disfigure you, the little son of bitch will probably be distressed. I heard that you are brought into the imperial palace by him from outside. Both he and His Majesty are bewitched by the coquettes from the Fengyu Court!" The Empress said.She suddenly drew an extremely sharp gold hairpin out of nowhere.There was a trace of madness in her eyes, although the sharp leaves of the gold hairpin in her hand had scratched her hand and left bloodstains on it, and her dark red bl
"I did nothing wrong! He's my husband. What do you have to snatch his favor from me?" Yao Lu said, overwhelmed by emotion.She waved her skinny arms around like an evil spirit that was about to devour Madame Jingrou."You still refuse to realize your error by now. His Majesty married you in his youth, so how could he treat you heartlessly? Do you know that His Majesty came to the manor of venomous insects for you rather than for a sightseeing tour or the power of the Xin Family?" Madame Jingrou said in a trembling voice, seeming to have exhausted her strength and failing to hold back her tears.The Emperor did not reveal a different expression at the mention of the past.Instead, he reached out to wipe off his beloved wife's tears with his sleeve.Yao Lu said, "No... that's impossible! His Majesty has never loved me. My father's power was the only reason that I could marry him. If His Majesty cared about me even
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
