Fortunately, Fourth Elder Brother was thoughtful and had already asked someone to leave a carriage not far away.
She did not know that Fourth Elder Brother had such a wide circle of friends. In that inconspicuous little farmyard, there were still many things that Gong Si had brought for them.
"Auntie, sorry to trouble you."
Lin Mengya had always been a sweet talker and kept calling them Uncle and Auntie. The two old people, who looked simple and honest, also liked this beautiful little girl.
If they were not in a hurry to leave, the auntie would have wanted to talk to her for a while longer.
"It's no trouble at all. When you go back, remember to say hello to Fourth Young Master."
Gong Si often used aliases when he traveled the martial arts world.
But those who had a good relationship with him, he would tell them that he was the fourth son.
Therefore, many people would address him as Fourth Young Master.
"Okay, I will definitely bring it to him. Uncle and Auntie, although this is not a lot, it can be used as travel expenses or as a settlement allowance. Listen to me, Golden Warehouse City … no, the whole Xin Province is going to be in chaos soon. You should quickly go and seek refuge with your reliable relatives. "
In the bag that Gong Si left behind, other than clothes and shoes, there were some banknotes of not too large denominations.
The twenty thousand taels that she had borrowed before was regarded as her private money and she did not need to worry about it.
This time, she had secretly left it for Zhu Yan.
She hoped that the little guy would understand her painstaking efforts.
She took out the biggest banknote of fifty taels and stuffed it into the auntie's hand.
"Aiya, Fourth Young Master is a great benefactor to us. You can't do this, Miss, take it back, you can't do this! "
How could the old couple accept it, but Lin Mengya was even more determined.
"Uncle and Auntie, we are in a hurry, don't refuse. Remember, you must leave Golden Warehouse City as soon as possible. Don't sleep too well at night, the weather is going to change. "
After saying that, before the old couple could react, Lin Mengya jumped into the carriage and left.
They pretended to be a pair of brother and sister doing business everywhere and bypassed Golden Warehouse City.
But along the way, they seemed to see an army heading in the direction of Golden Warehouse City.
"Alas, this Golden Warehouse City is going to be lively."
On the way, there were many merchants like them.
Because Lin Mengya and Gong Wu's appearance was somewhat eye-catching, Lin Mengya reluctantly concocted a few doses of medicine after passing through a small town.
At this time, both of them had waxy yellow faces, and one of their eyes was bigger than the other. At most, they could still be seen, but they couldn't even be considered delicate.
"Uncle, what do you mean?"
She got out of the carriage. Her slightly hoarse voice matched her appearance very well.
The one who spoke was an elderly horse dealer.
That person raised his eyelids and looked in the direction of the Golden Warehouse City, pretending to be deep in thought.
"Let's just say that the two of you are young. Then, he should be more well-informed. Do you know whose army this is? "
In fact, Gong Wu already knew, but the two of them still pretended to be humble and asked for advice, shaking their heads.
"I knew you wouldn't recognize him. This is Prince Xiao's army. A relative of his had died in Jincang City. It was said that it was done by an escaped slave. Xiao Wangye was not willing to give up, so he sent 3000 elite soldiers to annihilate them. "
Escaped slave?
After Lin Mengya and Gong Wu looked at each other, Gong Wu quietly sped up the carriage and left the crowd.
The person who died, could it be Xie Tianyu?
But other than him, no one else had the ability to do so.
"Should we go back and tell them?"
After a long time, Gong Wu asked in a low voice.
Not to mention others, but Gong San and other members of the Gong family were there. It was impossible for him not to care.
"It doesn't matter. They dare not take action now. After going back, I will think of a way to stop the 3000 elite soldiers from taking action. "
There must be a mole on Mount Mist!
Previously, Lin Mengya was afraid that Third Brother would not have a chance to find out. Now it was a good opportunity.
"You mean …"
"The younger brother of a concubine in the Ma family could make Prince Xiao mobilize 3000 elite soldiers. Don't you think it's too simple?"
Gong Wu was silent. He understood what Lin Mengya meant.
Not to mention that the younger brother of a concubine died, even if the concubine died, Prince Xiao would not necessarily send troops.
This showed that the princess of the Ma family did not know Prince Xiao's thoughts at all.
It seemed that she had found a perfect breakthrough.
As they hurried along the way, they collected information about the local area.
The journey, which should have taken them a few days, took them more than half a month.
By the time they returned to Feiye City, it was already full of vitality.
It was no longer the lifeless and chaotic Feiye City before.
On the periphery of Feiye City, the settlement project was in full swing.
From what Lin Mengya saw, she estimated that 70 to 80 percent of the people in the city had agreed to move outside.
The children of the Gong family were divided into countless teams.
Each had their own division of labor and responsibilities.
Lin Mengya and Gong Wu watched along the way and felt more and more satisfied.
This was the style that the Gong family should have, even if everyone was covered in mud.
As soon as they arrived in the city, someone rushed back to the old mansion to report.
When their carriage stopped at the gate, the whole family was standing at the gate waiting for them.
"We came back late. Please punish us, great-grandfather."
Lin Mengya and Gong Wu saluted at the gate.
Gong Qianfeng looked at the two good children and burst into tears.
"Good, good! It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back! "
Gong Bin and the others had arrived home long ago. They were able to return safely thanks to Lin Mengya's arrangements.
Originally, a few families who had suffered losses and coveted the wealth of the Gong family wanted to kill them on the way.
But the news of Lin Mengya's purchase of gold, silver and precious jade had quickly spread throughout Jincang City, and with the departure of the businessmen, it had spread a lot.
Along the way, there were many raw materials merchants of all sizes doing business with them.
In order not to attract attention, those people had to wait and wait.
In the end, the number of people recruited by the Gong family increased, and their connections became wider and wider.
In the end, those people had to give up the idea of killing the Gong family.
Instead, they went to the family to look for reinforcements.
When the reinforcements arrived, the Gong family had already reached the territory of Feiye City.
This hidden killing intent could only go down the drain.
Now, the name of the Gong family had risen again.
The number of shops in Feiye City had doubled.
Now, everyone understood why Eldest Miss wanted to take back the land.
Now, the land in Feiye City alone was much more valuable than the money they had paid out.
Lin Mengya was led by Baisu and Shang'er to wash up. Soon, a banquet was set up in the dining room for the two of them.
At the table, Moyan was still in her arms and refused to leave.
The little guy had been practicing martial arts every day, and his body had become much stronger.
In addition, he had friends to play with, so his temper was also more cheerful.
There was no one in the family who didn't like Childe Yan.
After the meal, after Lin Mengya sent the child back to his room, they sat in her great-grandfather's room to talk about things.
"You've had a hard journey, but Ya 'er, there's one more thing, I …"
Gong Qianfeng wanted to say something but stopped on second thought, while the four young masters of the Gong family all widened their eyes.
Gong Qianfeng had no choice but to swallow his words.
"Great-grandfather, if you have anything to say, please say it. We're all family. Don't be polite."
Lin Mengya smiled. This situation was not common.
In the past, Gong Bin and the others were all afraid of her great-grandfather.
Why did they dare to stare at her now?
"Great-grandfather, are you muddle-headed?"
In the end, Gong Wu couldn't help but say it. However, he had already said it and was glared at by his other brothers. He immediately shrank back in grievance, but his eyes were very firm.
"Alas, I don't want to. But Ya 'er must know about this. Don't forget that she is now the master of the Gong family! "
Gong Qianfeng smiled bitterly, but he still had the dignity of the master of the family, so the four men immediately did not dare to say anything.
Lin Mengya took a sip of tea and said lightly.
"Great-grandfather, you can say what's the matter. There are so many of us, and we can discuss it. "
Gong Qianfeng sighed and said in a low voice.
"Just half a month ago, the imperial court sent an order, saying that the next master of the Holy Hall has been confirmed, and it is His Highness the Crown Prince."
Lin Mengya didn't expect that in the past, the master of the Holy Hall was appointed by the older generation.
Although there had been people chosen from the royal family, it was the first time that the next emperor could be chosen.
Because once the Crown Prince inherited the position of the Holy Hall, wouldn't the imperial court and the Holy Hall be one family?
What was the master of the Holy Hall thinking about? Could it be that the sickly Crown Prince was so outstanding that he was willing to give up the independence of the Holy Hall to choose the Crown Prince?
"The Crown Prince may not be the next master of the Holy Hall, because there will be three successors."
Gong Bin thought for a while and said slowly.
However, Lin Mengya still didn't understand what this had to do with her.
"His Highness the Crown Prince is not in good health, so the master of the Holy Hall and the emperor think that His Highness should marry a healthy concubine. And her status must not be low. "
Gong Qianfeng's voice was even trembling when he said this.
Lin Mengya looked at the suddenly silent men and finally understood the problem.
"You're not talking about me, are you?"
God! It couldn't be!
However, the men from the Gong family all nodded solemnly.
"I can't, I … I just can't!"
What kind of joke was this?
He wanted her to marry someone else? She didn't care about the Crown Prince or the Holy Hall Master, okay?
Moreover, she had seen Long Tianhao, so it was even more impossible.
However, Gong Qianfeng's face was slightly bitter.
"It's not that you have to get married, but the emperor has ordered that the ten aristocratic families and the three princes must send a noble lady to the palace. You know the situation of our family … "
