As one of the most important prisoners, Lin Mengya was inexplicably attractive to all the people in the palace.
Of course, no one dared to come over and look at her brazenly.
Moreover, there were two teams of soldiers patrolling outside her courtyard day and night.
No one was allowed to enter her palace unless there was an order from the king.
Lin Mengya, who was busy, had a few days of peace.
"Master, someone wants to see you."
Baisu had been secretly sent here by Xiaoyu on the day she arrived.
This was the home of the king's family, so it was much more convenient for them to do things.
"Please come in."
She got up and tidied up her clothes.
Now that she was a prisoner, it was better for her to dress as simply as possible.
She was dressed in plain clothes without any makeup, which was natural and had a unique charm.
Therefore, when Xin Luan saw Miss He Lan like this, there was a little surprise in his eyes.
Then he smiled, as if this woman was supposed to be like this.
"I don't know if I should call you Miss He Lan or Miss Lin."
Lin Mengya was not nervous at all about her identity being exposed.
"High Priest, you can call me whatever you want. It doesn't matter how you address me."
Xin Luan gave her a meaningful look. This woman was really exquisite.
"I'd better call you He Lan. It's easier to say. In this case, you don't have to call me High Priest. Some things are already like smoke in the past. "
Lin Mengya nodded and readily accepted his advice.
"Please take a seat, Teacher. I don't have any good tea here, just a glass of water."
They sat down one after another. Lin Mengya was actually a little surprised that Xin Luan could come.
Although she had some contact with him before, she knew that he was a scheming and intelligent man.
She had thought that he came to the king with the hope of regaining control of the Xin family with the help of the king's power.
But now that he was involved in this matter, she could not see through him.
Xin Luan was also secretly looking at the woman in front of him. No wonder the king and Prince Yu went through so much trouble to protect her.
It seemed that she was worth it.
Lin Mengya lowered her head and looked at the water in front of her.
"I've accepted the king's request, and now I'm Prince Yu's teacher."
"Oh? In that case, congratulations, sir. "
Lin Mengya responded with a gentle smile.
"So, did you come here to persuade me to sacrifice myself to save Prince Yu?"
Her words were a little harsh, but Xin Luan still maintained a good demeanor.
"Looks like Miss Jialan is a smart person. I wonder what Miss Jialan thinks?"
"It's a good idea, but unfortunately, I'm not willing."
"Miss, you are so benevolent and righteous. You will definitely be admired by the world."
"Tsk … What does righteousness have to do with me? Death is like a lamp going out, leaving a bad name for ten thousand years is not a bad thing. "
"So, Miss, are you not going to sacrifice yourself for justice?"
Xin Luan narrowed his eyes and seemed to be in a good mood.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and shook her head.
"I like my head very much, so I'm sorry, I can't lend it to you for now."
The two of them were clearly at loggerheads with each other, but their attitudes made it seem like they were just having a casual chat.
They looked at each other, and then a relieved smile slowly spread across their faces.
"Miss, you're really an interesting person. You used to be like this, but now, you're more carefree than ordinary people."
Xin Luan's attitude seemed to be admitting defeat, but Lin Mengya did not take advantage of the situation. Instead, she shook her head.
"I used to think that you're so unapproachable, but I didn't expect you to be so humorous."
The two of them smiled, and the enmity between them disappeared.
"But the rumors are spreading outside, and we can't go against the will of the people. Although His Majesty and Prince Yu are still as stable as Mount Tai, you know that my sister is really worried. "
Since Xin Luan was Xiao Yu's teacher, he must know some inside information.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and said, "Everything can't be rushed.
"Nothing can be rushed. The current situation is like brewing medicine over a slow fire. It has to be boiled dry before the medicine can be revealed. But, you can tell the Queen that as long as I'm here, I won't let those people have their way. "
Xin Luan nodded and wisely did not continue to ask.
But his eyes touched Lin Mengya's abdomen, which was hidden under the table, and hesitated for a while.
"The Queen wants to ask you about something else. What kind of … um … thoughts do you have with Prince Yu?"
Xin Luan wanted to find a euphemistic word to express himself, but he still felt a little awkward.
If it were not for his sister's pleading, and the fact that others could not come to see her easily, this kind of thing would not have happened to him.
Lin Mengya was stunned, and then touched her abdomen as if she had understood something.
"Thank you, the Queen, for your help, but I'm already married and have a husband."
The Queen was like the King, with a human touch that was rare in the royal family.
Now that Long Tianhao was the Emperor of Jin State, and she did not have any official title, according to the rules, this child would not be able to enter the royal family.
So, the Queen wanted Xiao Yu to be the scapegoat.
"Well … alright. No wonder the Queen likes you so much. Stay here and recuperate for a few days. If there's anything, just send someone to look for me. "
Xin Luan had asked all the questions, and there was no need for him to stay any longer.
Lin Mengya walked him to the door, and when she turned back, she saw Baisu's worried face.
"What's wrong?"
"Those people want to kill you, Master. I'm afraid …"
Lin Mengya looked down. Of course, she knew what Baisu was afraid of.
"I'm afraid too, but they are more afraid than we are."
Baisu was puzzled. In fact, they had always followed orders, because the Master's arrangements were always appropriate, and they did not need to worry at all.
But it was different this time, because it was the Lord Sorcerer.
"Master, aren't you afraid that they will do something desperate? I heard from Qinghu that you were assassinated on your way here. These people are really haunting you. "
Lin Mengya smiled, and her eyes were gentle.
"Don't worry, we can wait, but some people can't. This time, we just need to watch the fire from the other side. "
Seeing that Baisu still did not understand, Lin Mengya did not explain.
It was a group of people who set her up to kill the Lord Sorcerer. This conspiracy started from the moment Xiao Yu came out of the Pool of Ten Thousand Venoms.
What they wanted was for Xiao Yu to lose her reputation, and lose the chance to ascend the throne.
However, not only did she accidentally get involved, these people had unintentionally helped her a great deal.
A bright light flashed in her eyes. The treacherous situation outside had become a breeze to her.
Just wait and see, Lie Yun will soon be in chaos.
"Since the murderer has confessed, he should be executed as soon as possible to comfort the Lord Sorcerer in heaven!"
"No! The person behind the scenes has not been found. How could she, a servant, easily sneak into the Divine Sorcerer Temple? I think there must be an unspeakable conspiracy behind it. "
"What do you mean by that? Are you still suspecting Prince Yu? "
"You …"
The huge Council Hall had now become a vegetable market.
On the main seat, the King's face was gloomy, but he could not lose his temper because of the situation.
Wanyan Yu was dressed in black. Although he was still a teenager, he already had the elegance of his father.
Compared to him, he was a little more quick-witted. His pair of cold eyes only moved slightly, and he looked like he was not affected by the people in front of him at all.
The father and son were aloof. Soon, those useless quarrels gradually calmed down.
"I think we should ask the King to make a decision on this matter."
The man who insinuated that Xiaoyu was the mastermind was about fifty years old. He had a mean face, and he did not look like a good person.
However, his identity was very important, and even the King had no choice but to put up with him a little more.
Among the group of old men, he was the most arrogant.
However, the King was also a ruthless person. After glancing at the old man, he said slowly, "I am ill.
"I am ill and cannot speak."
That voice was gentle and full of confidence. Why couldn't he speak?
However, he said it so confidently, and no one dared to do anything to him.
That man was unwilling to give up. He turned around and saw Wanyan Yu.
His eyes flashed, and he looked at Prince Yu arrogantly.
"Since the King is ill, what do you think, Your Highness?"
His words were a little sarcastic.
Everyone on the street was talking about how Prince Yu was the mastermind behind this.
Wasn't he forcing Prince Yu to embarrass himself by asking this question?
Unfortunately, Wanyan Yu was not easy to deal with.
She was trained by Lin Mengya, and it was difficult for her to lose in a quarrel.
"Well, of course, it should be handled impartially."
Wanyan Yu looked serious, but the others had different expressions.
"Handled impartially? Prince Yu, tell me how to handle it impartially!"
That man approached, but Wanyan Yu was still indifferent.
"Since it was a murder case in King's City, it should be investigated by the Tianji Mansion. Is the commander of the Tianji Mansion, Song Qing, here? "
Song Qing, who was dressed in official robes, immediately walked out of the crowd. He narrowed his eyes and looked sinister.
He could not touch the King and this little bastard, but he could touch the commander of the Tianji Mansion.
"Commander Song, if you can't handle this matter well, the King will punish you for being incompetent!"
Song Qing was not afraid at all. Instead, he knelt in front of the King.
"Your Highness, this matter should be handled by the King. However, this matter involves a lot of people, and the King's decree is needed to investigate it. Please give the decree, and Song Qing will handle it impartially. "
The problem was back in the King's hands.
Seeing that it was still the King's side, the man could not help but sneer in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the King pondered for a moment, picked up a pen, and began to write a word on the paper in front of him.
"Pa!" The Purple Cloud Bamboo Brush Shaft was broken into two pieces.
No one present had expected this change. It was the servant who followed the King. He knelt in front of the King and wept bitterly.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. I forgot that your hand has a strange disease. The witch doctor has warned me not to hold a pen for three months. It's all my fault. Your Highness, please punish me! "
What? Strange disease!
