Sitting in the front hall, Lin Mengya sat there quietly, frowning.
Baisu and Shang'er knew that she rarely showed such an expression.
Perhaps, he had met with some difficulties.
Indeed, Lin Mengya's heart was filled with worry for her child.
However, she could not send people to search for him.
From Long Tianyu, Qinghu, Zhu Yan, and Shangguan Hui.
The people around her appeared one by one, but with different faces.
If Ning 'er fell into the hands of these people, how would he be tortured?
Lin Mengya did not dare to think about it, because the more she thought about it, the stronger the urge to kill.
As a mother, she had to force herself to calm down.
Because other than herself, no one would save her child.
"Sister, I heard that you picked up another kid?"
Gong Wu rushed into the room excitedly. Although it was a world of ice and snow outside, he was like a steamed bun that had just come out of the pot.
It was obvious that he had just come back from the martial arts field.
Shang'er had originally given him a look, but unfortunately, Gong Wu was not a perceptive person.
After seeing Shang'er's signal, he thought that there was something wrong with her eyes.
"Shang'er, what's wrong with you?"
Shang'er almost couldn't control the urge to roll her eyes, but she was smart enough to rub her eyes and said.
"Maybe it's because I went to apply medicine to the little thing and my eyes are stained. That little thing is really miserable. I feel bad when I see him. "
She had made it clear. If Gong Wu still did not understand, he would die of stupidity.
Gong Wu understood and thought that Gong Ya was sad to see the child, so he quickly comforted her.
"It's already his good luck that he met you. In the future, we won't let him suffer anymore. Those martial arts slaves are loyal to the Gong family. Alas, actually, they are the only people we can trust here. "
Hearing this, Lin Mengya secretly thought about it.
In Wei Country, slaves had no human rights.
No matter what happened, the master could kill the slave, but the slave could not tell the master.
Even if it was brought to court, the slave's words could not be used as evidence.
As a result, there were very few cases of the slaves defecting.
As a fugitive slave, everyone in the State of Wei had the right to punish him.
After the commoners killed the fugitive slaves, they could even go to the master's house to receive a reward.
As a result, they had no choice but to show their unwillingness to be loyal to their enemies.
However, Lin Mengya had an advantage over them.
She still had a team of people on Mist Mountain.
The people there would not care about her noble status, nor would they care about her origins.
To her, only by holding onto these people tightly could she obtain everything she wanted.
Having made up her mind, Lin Mengya was not as anxious as before.
After all, relying on others was not reliable. It was better to rely on oneself for everything.
Although she was currently in Dragon City, it was not difficult for her to control the Mist Mountain that was thousands of miles away.
The inns of the Gong Family would reopen after the New Year.
At that time, regardless of whether they could return or not, they could use the Gong family's business route to send news back without anyone knowing.
However, she had to inquire about Ning 'er's news.
After much thought, Lin Mengya thought of a suitable candidate.
"Fifth Brother? Shang 'er, where's Fifth Young Master? "
She immediately ran out and hurriedly called Shang 'er.
"I heard that he went to the Lian Family. Miss, is there anything urgent? Why don't I call him for you? "
Lin Mengya shook her head and went to look for him herself.
Anyway, the two houses were not far from each other. She would arrive soon.
It was the first time that Lin Mengya went to the new mansion of the Lian Family. Although it was not as elegant as the previous mansion, it actually gave off a warm feeling.
The layout seemed to be more compact than before.
After going through so many things in the past, the Lian Family must have realized that only family affection was the most important.
The gatekeeper at the entrance of the mansion also recognized her. Nowadays, the Lian Family and the Gong Family were as close as a family. The Gong Family could go in and out of the Lian Family as if they were in their own home.
"Miss Gong, are you looking for Madam? Madam is in the backyard. Why don't I bring you there? "
Lin Mengya shook her head and asked softly.
"Is Fifth Brother at your house?"
"Oh, that's not a coincidence. Fifth Young Master Gong just went out with my young master. He said that he was going out of the city to relax. "
The gatekeeper looked embarrassed. Lin Mengya was also a little disappointed.
"It's okay. I'll go back and wait for him. If he comes back, please tell him for me. "
Just as the gatekeeper agreed, he heard a person's voice coming from inside.
"Gong Ya?"
Hearing that, Lin Mengya looked up.
She saw Lian Sheng sitting in a wooden wheelchair. He was much thinner and paler than before, and he looked haggard.
But he was in good spirits. At least Lin Mengya didn't see depression on his face.
"So it's big brother Lian. Long time no see. Are you feeling better?"
Since she saw the master of the Lian Family, Lin Mengya couldn't leave anymore.
She turned into the Lian Family and stood in front of Lian Sheng.
Lian Sheng subconsciously covered his chest, and a smile appeared on his pale lips.
"I have no regrets to be able to keep my life. I've heard about what happened to you. Thank you."
Lian Sheng was naturally referring to the incident at Ink Fragrance Pavilion.
Lin Mengya smiled embarrassedly. In fact, she shouldn't have been involved in this kind of thing.
After all, she shouldn't wash her dirty linen in public.
But at that time, if Lian Xing continued to make trouble or Little Lotus continued to play tricks, it would be the Lian Family who suffered.
"It's nothing, Aunt … I mean, Mrs. Lian is so kind to me. I naturally can't see others bully her."
Lian Sheng heard her words and said calmly.
"You'd better call me Aunt. Mother said it sounds more intimate. I have something to ask of you. Do you have time now? "
Forget it, the little guy at home probably needs to sleep for a while.
Moreover, she didn't know where Lian Xing and Gong Wu had gone. She might as well listen to what Lian Sheng wanted.
"Then I'll bother you."
Lian Sheng nodded and led Lin Mengya to the backyard.
"Well, you can leave now."
In a pavilion in the backyard, Lian Sheng waved his hand and asked the servants to leave.
When the servants retreated far enough, Lian Sheng opened his mouth.
"Do you know who that Irene is?"
From his tone, it seemed that Lian Sheng had long known about Ai Lian's existence.
This was a little strange. Since he knew, why did he put up with it for so long?
Lin Mengya shook her head and decided to listen first.
Lian Sheng looked in the direction of the inner courtyard. Although his expression didn't change much, Lin Mengya could feel that he was hiding a lot of things.
"Actually, I don't know very clearly. Since I was a child, my father raised me as the heir of the Lian Family. So in some places, he didn't guard against me at all. It was on my father's desk that I first discovered Ellen's existence. "
For Lian Sheng, who had been eagerly expected since he was a child, he had actually experienced much more than Lian Xing.
Therefore, most of the time, he kept his thoughts in his heart.
"Although my mother said that she was my father's love. Only I know that my father never read the letters she wrote to him a second time. "
As he spoke, Lian Sheng glanced at Lin Mengya.
The latter rolled her eyes and understood the meaning of his words.
"So, Uncle Lian and Ai Lian are not in that kind of relationship?"
"My father is an upright man. Even before he married my mother, he had a relationship with Ai Lian. I believe that he would definitely give Ai Lian a satisfactory explanation. He would definitely not mistreat the woman he loved. "
Lin Mengya would not express her opinion on this for the time being.
She admitted that Uncle Lian was a good man, but there were some things that were not so simple.
The more such a character was, the more likely it was that he would abandon the woman he loved for the so-called family, country, and world.
Sometimes, relationships weren't that important to him.
"However, Ai Lian told me that her name is Ai Lian, but to others, she calls herself Mo Tan. Perhaps my father doesn't know about this, but I am very clear about it. "
It was no wonder that Lian Sheng was in charge of the imperial guards of Dragon City. Nothing could escape his eyes and ears.
"Moreover, I also know that Mo Tan has a close relationship with the royal family."
Lian Sheng looked away and looked at her.
Lin Mengya's heart skipped a beat. If that was really the case, then Mrs. Lian's poison was …
"But isn't it unnecessary to do so? The Lian family is a family of royal servants, so naturally, we will share the glory and the loss with the royal family. If the royal family really chose to use this method to control you, wouldn't they be pushing you further and further away? I don't think they would be that stupid. "
A wise ruler would always use both kindness and power.
Sometimes, being benevolent could make the third generation do their best for you. If you didn't use sinister means to control them, then they would definitely be beaten up like a dog that was down in the water.
"My father and I have also discussed this in secret. The emperor is actually a man of integrity. All these years, my mother's illness has been cured thanks to the medicine he sent. But some things can be asked, and some things can't be asked. I've read the letter that Mo Tan wrote to my father, and it accidentally revealed some information. She probably said that she was forced to do it. Moreover, I've secretly studied the medicine in my father's hands. Ordinary people can't get their hands on this medicine. It's said that this secret prescription only exists in the inner court of the royal palace. "
Lin Mengya was very confident.
All the clues they had now pointed to the fact that the person behind the scenes was the emperor.
Any normal person would probably have the same suspicion.
