Looking around, Lin Mengya looked around.
On the way here, those people treated her well. They didn't help her eyes, nor did they do anything extreme to her.
This should be the back office of the Tianji Mansion. The room she was in now had a bed and a chair, but it was very simple.
It seemed that the soldier was really kind.
Although someone brought her hot water, there were still people guarding outside.
Lin Mengya didn't intend to go out like this, at least not now.
On the surface, it seemed that someone framed her, but in fact, they had been targeted since they entered the city.
She used the name of Xiaoyu all the way, and those people also asked the neutral soldiers of the Tianji Pavilion to arrest her.
She was very clear about what he was planning.
So she confessed, so that the impact could be kept to a minimum.
And this time, they only took Xiaoyu's official seal, and Xiaoyu didn't come with her. It had to be said that they had escaped a disaster.
At the same time, Lin Mengya couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart.
How could it be so coincidental that Xiaoyu was called away by the King at this time? Was the King also an insider of this matter?
But soon, Lin Mengya overruled this possibility.
The King was not Jinyuan Emperor. Although he had the same thoughts and means as an emperor, the King was fundamentally different from Jinyuan Emperor.
Jinyuan Emperor didn't love anyone, and he only cared about his throne.
But the King was different. In his heart, Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu's birth mother were more important than anything else.
Moreover, now they were on the same side.
Framing her was not good for the King at all.
But there were too many people who wanted to deal with Xiaoyu, and anyone who coveted the throne would want to get rid of Xiaoyu.
Therefore, she was not sure.
Now it seemed that the first prince was the most suspicious, because as long as this matter was related to Xiaoyu, it would definitely be a fatal blow to Xiaoyu.
Murdering a Divine Shaman, not to mention losing the position of the Crown Prince, she would be despised even if she was alive.
Except for the first prince, no one else had such great ability.
What's more, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, they had tried their best to attract the Tianji Pavilion.
This time, even the King had to deal with it impartially.
What a cunning scheme! But Lin Mengya knew that there were loopholes in these schemes.
Firstly, the time they came to the Divine Sorcerer Temple was not fixed. Even if those people sent people to follow them, they could only change their plans in a hurry.
Any plan, even if it had to be meticulous and detailed, would have some omissions, let alone a last-minute change of plans.
Secondly, she was now completely sure that there was something wrong with the steward guarding the door.
The Divine Sorcerer Temple was not a place that anyone could enter, let alone the steward.
Therefore, when this conspiracy was first formed, it might not be like this.
It was only their sudden arrival that disrupted the other party's plan.
Thirdly, how did the culprit escape?
She had once suspected the steward. After all, before she went in, only the steward had come in.
But soon, she excluded that person from the equation.
The Divine Witch was not an ordinary person, she must have her own means to protect her life.
And judging from the wound, the person was stabbed not long before she went in.
However, she did not hear anything from outside.
This meant that the other party must have extremely powerful martial arts skills and means, at least not inferior to Baisu and Qinghu's.
Such a master should be rare, so there should be a certain range of targets to investigate.
However, there was one thing that she did not understand. Why did the person leave quietly when she was not completely sure whether the Divine Witch was dead or alive?
Lin Mengya closed her eyes slightly and looked back at the wound on the Divine Witch's chest.
Although she only glanced at it briefly, the wound was a little strange, like —
Suddenly, there were footsteps outside the door.
Lin Mengya immediately woke up and looked outside the door calmly.
After a while, a man in casual clothes walked in.
Lin Mengya stood up and bowed.
"Helan greets the Divine Witch."
The man's eyes narrowed. He finally knew why his men had reported to him that the murderer this time was not ordinary.
He saw that although the woman in front of him was covered in blood and dirt, her eyes were calm and there was no trace of panic.
Such a woman, if not innocent, must be a martial arts master.
However, looking at her slender body and slightly bulging lower abdomen, she did not look like a martial arts master.
He had some thoughts in his mind, and even his expression towards her softened a lot.
"Don't stand on ceremony, sit down."
Lin Mengya did not stand on ceremony and sat down.
The Divine Witch looked at her for a long time before speaking.
"I heard that you have pleaded guilty and been sentenced. Is that true?"
Lin Mengya smiled, her eyes clear and gentle.
"Although I have pleaded guilty, whether I can be sentenced or not depends on the Divine Witch."
Song Qing raised his eyebrows and his eyes turned cold.
"It seems that you want to retract your confession."
Lin Mengya shook her head and replied after a moment of deliberation.
"It's not that I want to retract my confession, but if you really want to convict me of murder, you have to find evidence, right? Although I don't understand the national law, I know that the Tianji Mansion is the most fair and just, so I plead guilty. "
These words made Song Qing understand that the person in front of him was a smart person.
Since she was a smart person, there was no need to beat around the bush with her.
After a slight hesitation, Song Qing said slowly.
"You asked Maqiang to tell me to move the Divine Witch to a safe place and not to tell anyone. You also said that this had nothing to do with Prince Yu, right? "
"Yes, it was me."
Her frankness made the words that Song Qing had prepared to say die in his throat.
"Why do you think that I have to promise you?"
Lin Mengya smiled brightly, like a blooming flower.
"Because you are a good official."
Song Qing paused and did not know how to react.
Lin Mengya stood up, held her belly, and bowed deeply to Song Qing.
"Because you are a good official, you don't want Lieyun to be divided and the country to be in turmoil. I can't entrust this matter to anyone, only to you, which is the safest. You are a prophet, and in fact, you can see many things clearly. It's just that the involvement is too big, so you have to keep a low profile. "
Lin Mengya's words made Song Qing excited.
After a long time, he slowly exhaled and hurriedly helped the woman up.
"I have been in charge of the Tianji Mansion for more than ten years, and I have been conscientious and did not dare to disobey. I didn't expect that it would involve the fight for the throne. You are so righteous. You have not only saved Prince Yu, but also saved many innocent people in Lieyun. "
Lin Mengya smiled and shook her head. She knew that this man was also a smart man.
From the beginning, there was something fishy about this matter.
Therefore, it was not that the people of the Tianji Mansion could not see through it, but they could not explain it.
Therefore, they took good care of her. It was not only because she was pregnant and a woman, but more importantly, her confession gave the Tianji Mansion the possibility to push the boat with the current.
In this regard, it was not an exaggeration to say that Lin Mengya was their benefactor.
"But I have to say something first, Your Excellency. I can't die, and I can't even be blamed. Because if something happens to me, Lieyun will also be in chaos. "
Lin Mengya's serious expression made Song Qing slightly stunned.
"You mean …"
"To tell the truth, Your Excellency, my identity is very special. If something happens to me, Prince Yu will definitely be implicated, and Dajin and Lintian will also be in trouble. I know this is difficult for you, but I have to ask for your help. "
Her confession was just to buy time and give the Tianji Mansion a chance to breathe.
Song Qing frowned. He knew that the woman in front of him would never say such words for no reason.
Looking at her, Song Qing's eyes were a little complicated.
"What exactly is your identity?"
Was she a noble lady? But soon, Song Qing felt that she was not.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and shook her head apologetically.
"I can't tell you all, at least not now. But I can tell you one thing. My name is He Lan now. I will be the female official by your side in the future. I will be responsible for serving His Majesty and Prince Yu. "
After saying this, Lin Mengya took out the official seal that she used when she was a female official.
Song Qing was surprised for a moment. He picked it up and took a closer look. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
She was indeed a female official in the palace. Then, the child in her belly was …
"Ahem, Your Excellency, you misunderstood me. I've been betrothed to someone else. The child in my belly is not His Majesty's."
Seeing the horrified look in the official's eyes, Lin Mengya knew what he was thinking.
After explaining, the Lord finally averted his gaze. The scene was a little awkward.
"Well … I'll see to it. You can stay here first. If you need anything, just tell the people outside. You don't have to worry about other things for the time being. "
The official was a good official. Lin Mengya didn't want to make things difficult for him.
She nodded with a smile and the official left in a hurry. Lin Mengya guessed that he probably went to the palace.
Now, the only thing she prayed for was that Xiaoyu wouldn't get excited when he found out.
Otherwise, others would definitely take the initiative to attack him.
Fortunately, not many people knew about her identity as He Lan.
She felt that those people only knew that she was Prince Yu's servant. They didn't know anything else.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many doubts about this matter.
Lin Mengya unconsciously put her hand on her belly. She was surprised to feel the baby moving in her belly.
Because she had been injured before, although the baby's development was normal, she hadn't clearly felt the baby's movement.
A few days ago, she was worried and asked her teacher to read a lot of medical books. She was afraid that the baby would have any adverse sequelae.
