The people of the Lian family believed in her ability and immediately left the room, leaving only Lian Yue to help her.
Lin Mengya immediately began to examine Madam Lian. This symptom was obviously her old illness.
But … it shouldn't be!
"Miss Yue, did Madam eat or touch anything between yesterday and today?"
Lian Yue lowered her head and thought for a while, then shook her head.
She trusted this strange girl without any reason, so she naturally would not hide it from her.
"Madam has been with us in the inner courtyard all the time. What she ate and used were all ordinary things. There was nothing special."
Lin Mengya frowned. This was strange.
Madam Lian had been taking the medicine she prescribed. Even if it could not alleviate the symptoms, at least it would not easily relapse.
"I'll prescribe the medicine for Madam first. We'll talk about other things later."
She took out the silver needles that had been placed beside Madam Lian. Just when she inserted the first needle, she saw that Madam Lian's face was getting paler.
He opened his eyes abruptly, revealing an ominous glint in his eyes.
"You … give me back my son's life!"
Madam Lian had no time to dodge. Her hands were like iron pincers, grabbing Lin Mengya's throat.
"Madam, Madam! She's Miss Gong, Miss Gong! "
Lian Yue immediately went forward to pry Madam Lian's hands off, but her soft hands now had great strength.
Fortunately, although Lin Mengya was trapped, she reacted quickly. She immediately inserted the silver needles in her hands into Madam Lian's armpits.
Immediately, her hands loosened, and Madam Lian sat on the ground, paralyzed, with a burning pain in her throat.
"What's going on?"
The people outside heard the movement inside and immediately ran in.
After seeing the scene, they hurriedly pressed Madam Lian back onto the bed.
Apart from her hands hanging limply on the ground, Madam Lian struggled with all her might.
They could not hit her too hard, for fear of hurting her.
In just a short while, their faces were covered in bruises.
"Ahem, you guys stop her. I'll handle it."
Lin Mengya rubbed her throat. Fortunately, she reacted quickly, but even so, she must have been bruised.
The Lian brothers exchanged a look. Lian Sheng restrained his mother's hands, and Lian Xing slid behind her like a loach.
Then, he inserted his hands into his mother's arms and held her up with her back.
This time, even if Madam Lian had a lot of strength, because of the angle, she could not use it.
Seeing that this was a rare opportunity, Lin Mengya quickly changed positions with Lian Sheng. Madam Lian finally stopped after seven needles.
"Puff —"
He spat out a mouthful of black blood. Except for Lin Mengya who dodged quickly, the others were all hit.
Seeing this, Lian Xing immediately became nervous.
But because his mother was still on his back, he could not move, so he could only ask with concern.
"How is it? How are you guys? This blood won't do you any harm, right? "
Lin Mengya looked at the dumbfounded Lian Sheng and Master Lian and shook her head.
"It's okay. I'll be fine after I wash it."
It was precisely because she was fine that she hid, but … No one liked to be touched by blood.
"Let's put Madam down first. Her condition has stabilized for now. Don't worry too much."
This time, she did not detect any reaction to poison on anyone's body.
This meant that Madam Lian's relapse this time was not caused by the medication.
That was strange. No one in the mansion would provoke her like this, right?
"Are there any new people in the mansion these few days?"
The father and son of the Lian family looked at each other. They had never cared about these matters in the inner courtyard.
Lian Yue, who had been following Madam Lian like a little housekeeper, became the focus of the few people's attention.
"There haven't been any new people in the mansion these few days. But … but San 'er was borrowed by her family a few days ago. Oh yes, yesterday San' er's father came to redeem her contract of selling herself. Madam is kind. Not only did she not ask for money, she even gave him a lot of money. Later, she asked him to stay for a while to talk before leaving. Other than that, there haven't been any strangers in our courtyard. "
"San 'er? Is that the girl who brought Buyao with her to provoke you into relapse? "
Lian Yue nodded. Her condition had improved a lot these days. She was not like before, when she would be like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow.
"What does San 'er's father look like? Besides Miss Yue' er, has anyone else seen him?"
Lian Yue called a maidservant over and explained that they were from the same hometown.
The maidservant seemed to be very familiar with the situation in San 'er's family and began to narrate.
"San 'er's father and mother are both foreigners. I heard from my parents that they fled here. San 'er's mother used to be the young miss of a wealthy family. It is said that San' er's father used to be her teacher. The two of them eloped here. Later on, San 'er's mother's family declined and she didn't come to look for her daughter. After she gave birth to San 'er, she passed away a few years later. "
"What kind of person is San 'er's father?"
The maidservant thought carefully for a while before replying.
"Usually, he looks like a gentle and cultured person. But my father doesn't like him. He said that San 'er's mother's death was caused by his father. My mother also often warns me not to look for a husband based on looks. I think he's afraid of what happened to San 'er's mother. "
To put it simply, he was a gentle scum.
The more knowledgeable a person was, the easier it was for him to have such cunning thoughts.
It was probably because of this that he allowed Madam to talk to him.
"Brother Lian, send someone to San 'er's house immediately. Everyone, listen up. Madam is ill and there's no cure for her for now. No matter who comes, you have to answer in the same way, understand? "
When she was anxious, it was natural for her to command everyone.
No one doubted her orders at all.
"Alright, I'll do it immediately."
After Lian Sheng left, she turned to look at Lian Xing and Old Master Lian.
"Uncle, you don't have to leave the mansion these few days. No matter what happens, just say that you're too worried and can't meet anyone."
After Old Master Lian nodded in agreement, she turned to Lian Xing. Before she could speak, Lian Xing interrupted.
"My mother is ill, so I'm not in the mood to do anything."
This guy was really quick to react.
"Apart from that, you must find a suitable person to entrust your work to. Remember, he can't make a mistake, and neither can you. "
It was still unknown why the other party acted against Madam Lian.
Therefore, she had to fully consider the possibility of this matter.
"Alright, I'll make the arrangements."
In the blink of an eye, only she, Lian Yue, and Madam Lian were left in the room.
"You have to be careful these few days."
Lian Yue looked at her worriedly, then glanced at Madam Lian, whose face was pale.
Who on earth would attack such a good Madam?
Lin Mengya looked out of the window. Although it was a sunny day, she didn't know how many secrets were hidden.
After Madam Lian's condition stabilized, she took the little thing from the maidservant's hands.
"You must be sleepy. Let's go home, good boy."
The little thing curled up in her arms like a kitten, its little hands wrapped tightly around her neck.
The warm little face pressed against hers, making Lin Mengya feel a slight warmth in her heart.
"Ah …"
The little thing opened its mouth and let out a soft cry, its eyes looking behind her.
This little thing still remembered what she said in the morning.
"Now there's a very good grandmother who's sick, you can't disturb her. We'll visit her when she's better, okay? "
The little thing stared with a pair of big black eyes and nodded vigorously.
Then, he snuggled into her arms again.
After returning home from the Lian Mansion, Lin Mengya immediately called Gong Si and Gong Wu over. They had to pay attention to what happened to the Lian Family.
Fortunately, the Gong Family had been trained by them to be like an impenetrable fortress.
On her side, there was Gong Ping outside, San 'er inside, and Baisu beside her.
Although they couldn't pass through at all, it was better to be safe than sorry.
"Are those people crazy? Even if he had a grudge against the Lian family, why did he have to make a move against Madam Lian? They … they can't bear to do that! "
Gong Wu was full of righteous indignation. He must be very angry.
Lin Mengya sighed and said faintly, "It's good for you to be a gentleman.
"You're a gentleman. That's your advantage, but others may not be the same. I think this time, they don't just want to attack the Lian Family, but … "
"The Emperor."
Gong Si was always so sharp. Although it was hard to believe, Lin Mengya had to nod.
"In this case, the first people to be suspected should be Prince Yue and the An Family, right? After all, they lost a great deal of face because of the Emperor's order. "
Gong Wu suddenly thought of the key.
"That's right. No matter who it was, they would think so, right? Prince Yue felt ashamed, but he couldn't attack the Emperor openly. And the Lian Family is the Emperor's servant, which is the face of the royal family. If they're late, won't the royal family also lose face? "
Lin Mengya's words hit the bottom of Gong Si's heart.
He frowned and slowly opened his mouth.
"Little sister, do you think that it's not the Yue King and the An family, they were also framed?"
"Not necessarily. Who can be really innocent? Although I don't know what happened, it will give people a feeling that they were framed if Prince Yue is so easily suspected. I think Prince Yue should have been able to do this kind of small trick, right? "
Gong Si also agreed with her. Indeed, if this was a plot to kill two birds with one stone, it was too easy to be seen through.
After all, this kind of thing, even if there was evidence on the surface, there was no way to pursue it.
As the victim, the Lian Family could only suffer losses.
However, there was no lack of fighting between them behind their backs.
Over time, they would also form a grudge, which was not good for either side.
