Based on her deduction, there were definitely no top-notch experts among those people.
Moreover, she still had a trump card to save her life.
She had been hiding in the carriage, watching Baishao and Baiji check the carriages one by one.
"The situation looks good."
Lin Mengya stood behind the window, and her eyes fell on a few people not far away.
She had deliberately asked Baiji and Baishao to make some noise.
She had to beat the grass to startle the snake. Now it depended on whether these people would take the bait or not.
Lin Mengya was looking at everything outside, but she didn't notice that her horse carriage was gradually driving to a relatively remote place.
It seemed to be a relatively dense forest around them.
"What's going on? Why are we here? "
Baisu asked the coachman when the door was half open.
"Master, there's something wrong with the shaft of the carriage. Let's take a break and the coachman will fix it."
Lin Mengya nodded. It was no wonder that she felt a little bumpy when she was in the carriage.
Baisu and Baizhi helped Lin Mengya get out of the carriage, and they sat on a big rock to rest.
The Crown Prince's carriages seemed to be running for their lives, and did not stop at all.
Even though there were carriages constantly stopping inside, the Crown Prince was still running for his life. Now, he could only look at the little black dots in the distance.
"Master, the Crown Prince is running too fast. He doesn't care about the lives of the people behind him."
Baizhi gently massaged Lin Mengya's calf. She had already begun to despise the Crown Prince.
"His status is different. Even if all these people die, they are not as noble as him, right?"
Lin Mengya had long known the Crown Prince's character. When he really encountered trouble, he ran faster than a rabbit.
How could such a man become the emperor of Dajin?
"That's true. Master, are you hungry? Do you need me to get some food from the carriage? "
Baizhi asked. After such a long journey, even Lin Mengya had not eaten or drunk anything for a long time, let alone her.
"The temporary imperial residence in the suburbs of the capital is not far away. Let's talk about it when we get there."
There were many guards in the temporary imperial residence, so it should be safe.
"By the way, didn't Baishao and Baiji only take a few guards with them? Why can't I see anyone now? "
The surroundings gradually quietened down.
After a long time, they didn't see another carriage pass by. In the whole open space, there were only three women and a groom who was repairing the carriage.
"Yes, why don't I ask the coachman?"
Baizhi also felt strange. Those guards would never leave their master's side. Why did they disappear now?
"No, don't go."
The sensitive Lin Mengya could smell something unusual in the air.
Secretly pinching Baisu's arm, the three of them looked around vigilantly.
"Your Highness, the carriage has been repaired. We can set off now."
The coachman, who had repaired the carriage, walked over slowly and said in a deep voice.
"Where are the guards? Weren't you with us just now? "
The coachman lowered his head and Lin Mengya could not see his expression clearly.
However, he felt that something was amiss.
"They're already waiting for you ahead, so you'd better hurry up."
The coachman, who was lowering his head, suddenly raised his head.
At this moment, there was a gloomy smile on his slightly weathered face.
No wonder she felt that something was wrong. It turned out that the killer hiding here was this honest looking coachman.
"Don't, don't come over! I'm warning you, don't come over! "
Baizhi stood in front of Lin Mengya in fear and shouted with fear.
"How can I not go over? If I don't go over, who will send you on your way? "
The three women retreated into the woods step by step.
The killer coachman pulled out a belt from his waist and approached them fiercely.
"Master, he's holding ice silk in his hand. No wonder we only found a small part of it. "
Baisu seemed to recognize the thing in his hand and said with a little excitement.
Lin Mengya nodded. She didn't expect that she would be decapitated by the enemy's underhanded plan.
How much hatred and resentment did he have?
"I'm warning you, don't come over again, or I won't be polite to you."
Lin Mengya stepped forward and protected the two maidservants behind her, retreating helplessly.
"Hey, Princess Yu, don't struggle anymore. I might as well tell you that you're our real target this time. The death of those people is just to slow you down. "
The killer's words made Lin Mengya slightly stunned.
The target this time was actually him?
But on second thought, she felt that it was really unbelievable. How could she be so powerful that she could send so many masters of Peach Blossom Dock to die?
"You'd better come — Ah —"
Just when the killer was about to let Lin Mengya die, he slipped and fell into a deep trap.
The three of them were temporarily out of danger. Don't forget that Night was with her.
Night, who had been secretly observing, had already identified who the mole in the mansion was.
When the horse carriage turned into this small forest, she already knew that there was a trap set up by the hunters somewhere in the forest.
The three of them looked around and found no accomplices of the killer coachman, so they gathered their courage and walked to the edge of the trap.
That night, Lin Mengya asked someone to put a large sharp thorn at the bottom of the pit.
Even a bear would be poked into a hornet's nest if it jumped in, let alone a human being.
Standing at the edge of the pit, Lin Mengya sighed as she looked at the shocked expression of the arrogant coachman before he died.
She had told him not to come over, not to come over.
What happened to the trust between people? There was no other way.
"Master, will he come back to life?"
Baizhi did not dare to look into the pit, although she also felt that the man deserved to die.
Lin Mengya and Baisu looked at each other and said slowly,
"Don't worry, he's dead. Night, ask someone to fill the pit. "
"Yes."
There was no figure, but the voice seemed to come from all directions. Even Baisu could not identify the source of the voice.
"Amazing. Not everyone can learn this skill of concealment."
Baisu praised from the bottom of her heart. Night and Qinghu were both top-notch martial arts masters that ordinary people could not meet.
"Alright, don't be envious of others. I'm afraid there are not many girls of your age who are as good at martial arts as you."
Baisu was just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. She was steady, reliable and good at martial arts. The person behind Xiaoyu must have spent a lot of effort to cultivate her.
But that little guy had transferred Baisu to her in the blink of an eye.
Back in the horse carriage, Baisu checked it up and down. After making sure there was no problem, she let Lin Mengya and Baizhi get in.
"But now, none of us know how to drive a horse carriage. What should we do?"
Baizhi looked at Lin Mengya. Anyway, her master seemed to be an all-rounder.
Lin Mengya laughed dryly. When she was in modern times, the only thing she could not do was to get a driver's license.
She failed the test three times and became a senior in the driving school.
She did not expect that when she returned to the ancient times and was reincarnated into the exploiting class, she still had to face such a dilemma.
"I … I don't know how to drive a horse carriage either."
The three of them looked at each other. Finally, they could only sigh and smile helplessly.
"I'll look for Baishao and the others. There should be someone among the guards who knows how to drive a horse carriage."
Baisu jumped out of the horse carriage and ran to the back.
Fortunately, Baiji and the others should not be far away. Otherwise, Lin Mengya would have to laugh bitterly.
She could not hand over Night to a highly skilled Shadow Guard to be her coachman.
This scene was too beautiful to imagine.
"Master! Master! Are you all right? "
About a quarter of an hour later, Lin Mengya heard Baishao's loud voice.
Everything about this girl was good, except that her voice was getting louder and louder.
Sometimes, in the Liuxin Courtyard, scolding the little girl could be heard from far away. Baishao had become half a housekeeper in Lin Mengya's courtyard.
"I'm fine, Master and I are fine. How are you?"
Baizhi welcomed her companions. The moment Baishao came up, she grabbed Lin Mengya and looked her up and down.
"I'm really fine. Don't be so nervous."
Lin Mengya had no choice but to let Baishao and Baiji look her up and down.
"We were at the back, but you disappeared in the blink of an eye. But we couldn't get away at the moment. We were so worried. "
In fact, the assassin in the horse carriage did not kill the guards. Instead, he asked them to borrow some tools. Now, fortunately, there was someone who knew how to drive a horse carriage.
"Alright, tell me what's the situation over there?"
Sitting in the horse carriage, Lin Mengya began to analyze the news brought back by the two maidservants.
"Just as Master expected, those lords have indeed seen their own servants. Whether it was the manservants, maids, or guards, they had all used all kinds of excuses to meet their masters. We secretly investigated them, and after the incident, all of them mysteriously disappeared. "
Baishao's words made Lin Mengya fall into deep thought.
In fact, these people's means were not very clever.
It was very normal for the servants of each family to seek an audience with their masters.
As for their disappearance, it wasn't something that could be explained by coincidence.
"We just got rid of the coachman, but I think we will soon attract the attention of those assassins. Be prepared. Perhaps, what awaits us, will be a violent storm. "
Lin Mengya was not sure if Peach Blossom Dock was after her.
But she had just sorted out the information and found that most of the dead officials were from the neutral faction and not the Crown Prince's faction.
But the Crown Prince did not seem to be pretending when he fled in panic.
