"Is this for me?"
Murong Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at the woman on the bed.
"No, don't flatter yourself. This is … Forget it, it's for you."
This was indeed the cloak she had prepared for Long Tianhao. This man had bad habits. He always relied on his high martial arts skills and good health, but he never wore his clothes properly. He didn't even have a stove in the winter.
Murong Xi's heart ached when she saw that she seemed to be lost in her memories of someone else.
What kind of existence did that person have to be to be able to make her daydream in front of him?
"Hey, you …"
Lin Mengya recovered from her memories and looked up, only to find that there was no one in front of her.
This person really came and went without a trace.
Lin Mengya smiled and fell into the quilt.
It was obvious that Long Tianhao wanted to draw the Lian family to his side. But with his current status, it would only put his position in more danger.
What was he plotting in the dark?
"Xiao Ya, are you awake?"
A sudden knock on the door interrupted her thoughts.
"Yes, please come in."
When she heard the door open, she hurriedly tidied up her clothes and put on a small coat in the inner room before walking to Gong Wu.
"This room seems a little cold. Be careful at night, don't catch a cold."
Gong Wu was not satisfied with the temperature in the room, but it was not cold at all.
It was just that she was not in good health, so she wore a little more clothes.
"It's okay. Brother Wu, why are you here so late? Do you have something important to tell me?"
Although Gong Wu was unrestrained, the Gong family valued the rules very much.
When the siblings were together, Gong Ping, Shang 'er, and Baisu had to be there.
At this moment, Gong Ping was adding charcoal to the stove.
"Do you know that it was not an accident?"
It was true.
Lin Mengya was stunned for a moment, then she smiled slightly.
"Yes, I can roughly guess."
She thought about it later. Although the road was not good, they did travel a little faster.
However, the carriages in Dragon City would be equipped with anti-skid wheels during the winter.
She remembered very clearly that on that day, the carriage had actually gone out of control almost immediately after they had rushed out.
If this went on, something would happen to the carriage sooner or later.
"Apart from the carriage being tampered with, there's also that carriage. I went to check it out later. The alley was very shallow, and you could see the situation outside from the inside. Judging from your situation at the time, it's entirely possible that he saw you first. If he only stopped for a moment, he wouldn't have flipped your car. "
"So you're saying that the carriage came out on purpose?"
Gong Wu nodded, his expression a little ugly.
"I can only blame myself for arriving too late. The car had already disappeared without a trace. But according to the Imperial Guards at the scene, the car didn't have any signs that could identify it. Furthermore, the coachman is also wrapped up tightly, not revealing any flaws. "
Lin Mengya had a rough idea. It seemed that he had done it on purpose.
"I've already sent people to investigate the carriage company. Perhaps, there will be news soon."
Gong Wu looked at her solemn look and immediately said in a low voice.
But Lin Mengya raised her head and looked at him, saying, "No need.
Since that person could do such a thing, I think the traces have already been removed. Even if we investigate, we probably won't be able to find anything. "
"Are we just going to take this loss?"
Gong Wu gritted his teeth. This time, even the Imperial Guards at the scene said that his little sister could survive purely because she was lucky. The surrounding was relatively soft snow.
Otherwise, she would have smashed her head on the spot.
Since they wanted to kill the Gong family, how could he let them go so easily?
"Loss? Brother Wu, I've eaten everything since I was a child, but I never lose. Don't worry, sooner or later, I'll get back at them with interest. But now, we have to figure out their purpose. "
Motive was very important.
The killers besieged Long Tianhao and the Lian family, hoping that Long Tianhao and the Lian family would completely disappear, or at least fall out.
Therefore, they chose to poison them first, and then besieged them.
In this way, even if the Lian family was lucky enough to survive, they would hate Long Tianhao to the core.
Moreover, these people didn't want Long Tianhao to live at all.
There was no evidence, so this was the best solution.
Then, who did this to her? Was it also the same group of people?
After thinking for a while, Lin Mengya felt that something was wrong.
If it was the same group of people, shouldn't the killers first think of a way to trap her in the Lian family's mansion and get rid of her?
Moreover, the carriage was not a coincidence.
It seemed that the people who did this to her had enough confidence that they would definitely go there until she lost control of the carriage today.
There were not many people who could do this.
"How is the coachman now?"
Gong Wu's eyes were a little gloomy, and he shook his head.
"He's not that seriously injured, but because he hit his head, he has been unconscious. Do you think there's something wrong with him? "
"No, the problem is very likely not with him. Do me a favor, get me the horse that I drove that day. I want to check whether he's dead or alive. Also, ask someone to investigate whether the coachman contacted his relatives and friends outside the mansion these days. It'd better be someone who can go to the wine table. "
Gong Wu nodded, indicating that he would do it.
"Oh yes, one more thing. Didn't Fourth Brother say that he would arrive soon? I think he will arrive about a year ago. If we can't solve it, it's not too late to wait for him. "
It was not that Gong Wu was not anxious, nor was he afraid.
He was just worried about Gong Ya's health, and that she might not be able to handle it.
"I know, it'd be good if Fourth Brother could come. But Dragon City is too chaotic, and we don't know if we can get out of here. I can't bear to drag him into this. "
She had not been here for long, but she had offended Princess Chong Hua and the Crown Prince, and now she was related to the Lian family and Long Tianhao.
Trouble never comes alone, did it?
In this case, if Fourth Brother came, it would be good for her.
But at the same time, Fourth Brother was in a deep quagmire, and he could not help himself.
"Don't think so much. Our Gong family has been through so many ups and downs, and we are still fine now. All you have to do is relax and stay in command. Alright, I won't disturb you anymore, rest early. "
Gong Wu got up and left with Gong Ping. Lin Mengya went back to bed, but she was not sleepy at all.
In the darkness of Dragon City, how many eyes were staring at her?
Lin Mengya wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, and felt like a small boat on the waves.
Lin Mengya let out a long breath, and closed her eyes.
For her man and child, and for the rest of her life, she had to defeat all these demons and ghosts!
Hearing that she had woken up, Mrs. Lian wanted to visit her personally.
But the storm had not subsided yet, and Lin Mengya was afraid that there would be an accident on the way, so she politely declined Mrs. Lian's kindness.
But unexpectedly, Mrs. Lian gave her a lot of nourishing things.
Looking at the expensive tonics flowing into the Gong family, Lin Mengya felt her headache getting worse.
She looked down at the tonic soup that Gong Wu had ordered to boil for a whole day.
This thing did not work on her at all, and it made her feel a little hot.
But now, even Baisu was on the same side as Gong Wu.
If she dared not to drink it, everyone would either talk in her ears or stare at her with tears in their eyes.
It was just a nourishing soup, but Lin Mengya felt as if she had done something unforgivable.
After a few days, she was finally able to go out, but Baisu and Gong Wu looked like they were facing a formidable enemy.
"What are you guys doing?"
There were at least twenty attendants standing outside the carriage.
And each of them had weapons in their hands.
But that was not the point. The point was that she was wrapped up by Baisu and Shang 'er, and on her head was an exquisite but ridiculously thick hat.
Judging from her current condition, she felt more like a mountain eagle on patrol.
"To protect you. If anyone dares to harm you on the way, these people can go forward and cover your escape!"
Gong Wu looked a little serious. He touched his chin and looked at the guards at the door.
He waved his hand, and immediately a dozen strong servants ran out of the mansion.
"How about letting these people go with you?"
Lin Mengya rolled her eyes when she heard this.
"Then why don't you let Slave Wu protect me?"
Who knew that Gong Wu would look around like a thief and whisper in her ear.
"I have asked them to change into ordinary people's clothes and spread out to protect you on the way. Don't worry, we have a lot of people secretly. "
Hearing this, Lin Mengya smiled, turned around and walked into the house.
"Xiao Ya, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Do you want me to tell Madam Lian that you won't go there for a few days? "
A group of people followed her into the house. Unexpectedly, after Lin Mengya entered, the first thing she did was to take off her hat and the outermost layer of fur cloak.
"No, let me take a breath, I'm suffocating."
She fanned herself with her hands. This set of clothes weighed at least twenty to thirty kilograms.
Coupled with the arrangements outside, if this went on, wouldn't it be worse than being in prison?
"Fifth Brother, tell your men to retreat. Why? I'm going to the Lian Family, not to fight with them. "
This kind of situation guaranteed that before she went far, she would be surrounded by people on the spot.
"No, what if something happens to you?"
At this time, Gong Wu refused to give in.
Just as the two of them were in a deadlock, a servant walked in and said something.
