"No, I don't know anything about this. Quick, go and ask why His Majesty suddenly came here. "
She immediately gave the order. Gong Qianfeng was personally invited by the Empress, so the people of the Gong family could only follow her.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay."
Murong Xi's voice came from behind. He was probably the only one who could see through Lin Mengya's hidden nervousness.
"His Majesty and Her Majesty are here today to celebrate with the people. But just now, there was indeed someone who wanted to frame you."
Lin Mengya's eyes darkened. She looked at him with doubt.
"If that bucket of hot water really destroyed the palace, you will definitely be blamed by the Emperor and the Empress on the spot. The collapse of the palace will be seen as a bad omen. Moreover, I've found out that the Emperor and the Empress will be here later. "
Murong Xi's voice was cold.
After hearing this, Lin Mengya finally understood where the sense of crisis had come from.
"Since someone did it on purpose, I'm afraid it will be hard to find out. Fortunately, I've prepared beforehand. Otherwise, it would be really dangerous this time. "
Although the Emperor and the Empress would not do anything to the Gong family, they would definitely lose the opportunity to ease their relationship with the royal family.
"I've already sent people to investigate. Don't worry, it'll be fine."
Murong Xi had a rough idea of what was going on. After all, there were very few people who knew or could influence the Emperor and the Empress's plans.
It would not take much effort to investigate.
Lin Mengya nodded and turned to leave. She noticed someone standing in the alley not far away.
That person was a little petite. Even though she was standing in the dark alley, the cold light in her eyes still made Lin Mengya's hair stand on end.
"Xi, there's someone there."
She gently tugged at the corner of Murong Xi's clothes. The latter immediately gave a look to someone in the crowd.
In an instant, a few figures secretly rushed over.
However, just when she wanted to see the result, her vision was blocked by the crowd.
Her heart trembled. When the crowd passed by, she found that Murong Xi's subordinate had returned empty-handed.
"He ran away."
After the subordinate reported respectfully, he continued to hide in the crowd.
"He got away."
Murong Xi was a little reluctant to admit defeat. She seemed to be convinced that this man was the one who had framed Lin Mengya.
But Lin Mengya felt that the look in his eyes was very familiar.
It couldn't be her, right?
"Princess Chonghua, are you among the crowd today?"
Murong Xi shook her head and shifted the infant, who had been lying obediently on her shoulder, into her arms.
"Right now, she has been ordered by Her Majesty to face the wall and reflect on her actions. She definitely won't be able to come out. I'll go over first. See you in a bit. "
Lin Mengya nodded. Of course, she knew that Murong Xi was asking her to find out what had happened just now.
She looked at the alley curiously, then carried the baby and caught up with the Gong family.
That gaze was truly unforgettable.
If it was not Princess Chonghua, she could not imagine who would hate her so much.
The Gong family made an exception and were brought to the temporary lodging by the emperor and the empress.
After the previous lesson, they did not set up a warm tent this time. Instead, they opened up a garden as a temporary resting place.
The emperor and the empress came out just to have a look. They had to rush back to the palace later.
Now that the Gong family had become the honored guests of the emperor and the empress, it was undoubtedly a signal to the aristocratic families and the courtiers.
After all, no one could guarantee that they would be able to stand firm in the imperial court.
Therefore, winning over the new officials had become one of the most effective ways for them to replenish their strength.
"So many years have passed. I still remember that the children of the Gong family were just like children. Now, it seems that they have all grown up to be the pillars of the country."
The empress said with a smile. Her tone was also gentle, as if she was chatting about family matters.
The emperor was still cold and aloof. Lin Mengya could roughly guess that instead of saying that the emperor was cold and aloof, it would be better to say that he was a qualified monarch.
He knew when to win over people's hearts and what kind of response he should make.
Such people generally had no ego and only lived for the country.
Although it was somewhat contrary to human nature.
But for the country, he was the best monarch.
Lin Mengya felt that she seemed to have made a new discovery about this couple.
"Empress, you flatter me."
As the ancestor of the Gong family, Gong Qianfeng had seen everything.
Even though he was a little shocked just now, he had calmed down now.
The former head of the Gong family was also powerful and had a high status.
Years of experience had become the most profound foundation.
Compared with those ignorant people who only knew how to flatter and flatter, the people of the Gong family were all extraordinary and had a unique aura of a big aristocratic family.
Immediately, the eyes of several women from the aristocratic families lit up. They must have found a new candidate for their husband.
Unfortunately, the men of the Gong family would only pay attention to one woman.
"Where is Gong Ya?"
The empress looked at the people of the Gong family and finally rested her eyes on Gong Ya, who was walking at the back.
Because it was New Year's Eve, she was wearing a bright red cloak.
The red dress was like fire, which made her as delicate and beautiful as a flower.
Because she only wanted to come out with her family, although she had put on some makeup, it didn't look very grand.
The Queen Highness smiled warmly at her, but her gaze fell on the bundle of flesh she was hugging.
Lin Mengya's heart skipped a beat, but she still calmly greeted the Empress with the baby in her arms.
"Gong Ya greets the Empress."
The Empress nodded and waved at her.
Under the envious eyes of all the girls, she walked up to the Empress.
"Oh, whose child is this?"
The Empress asked with a smile. At this moment, Lin Mengya subconsciously lowered her head and realized that her son had turned around and was looking at the Empress with his big eyes.
Because the color on his face had finally become even, and thanks to her and Murong Xi's persistent plan to feed the baby, Ning 'er now looked very cute.
After all, it was a combination of their genes. Naturally, it couldn't be wrong.
Although this was what she thought, this wasn't the place for her to boast about herself.
"He looks so good. Can you let me hug him?"
For some reason, the Empress was unexpectedly tolerant of Ning 'er.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and asked the Empress's people to take her son away.
Just as she was worrying, she heard Murong Xi say.
"Your Highness, that's my adopted son. I was anxious just now, so I asked Miss Gong to take care of him. "
She was a little surprised. These words should not have been said at this time.
But Lin Mengya saw the look in his eyes.
Yes, they had always been open and aboveboard. He was right about some things. She still had to face what she had to face.
Although they should have forgotten each other by now.
But when it came to things like fate, medicine could not cut it.
This time, it was Murong Xi who took the initiative to approach her, wasn't it?
Since the man was hers, and the child was also hers, what was there for her to be afraid of?
She nodded graciously. The ruffian hidden deep in her bones was stimulated.
She, Lin Mengya, was not someone who would be bullied.
"Is he the child you mentioned? No wonder I felt that he was destined to be with the royal family at first sight. "
The Empress's ability to accept was a little too strong. She gently held the child, and her gentle and dignified face emitted the radiance of motherhood.
Lin Mengya suddenly understood what it meant to be the mother of the country.
The mother of the country, the mother of the country.
If she did not have the kindness and courage to treat all the children in the world as her own, how could she be called the mother of the country?
"Yes, Liangyu is a smart and docile child. I like him very much."
At the mention of Liangyu, Murong Xi's face, which had always been frozen, suddenly softened a lot.
Many of the noble ladies around him even forgot to blink after seeing his expression.
At the same time, some people began to praise Ning 'er.
Although it was quite pleasing to the ear, the purpose was not simple.
Lin Mengya was a little unhappy, but she could only bear with it for now.
"Well, I heard that you have an adopted son. I'm very happy to see him today. In the future, you should often bring Liangyu to the palace. "
Sitting on the Empress's knee, Ning 'er was very quiet.
There was probably no child in the world who was more powerful than her baby.
When he was born, he was loved by the most distinguished people in the two countries.
Now, he was sitting on the Empress's knee. He was a real winner in life. He was very powerful.
"By the way, I can accept him as my adopted son, but shouldn't you settle your marriage?"
Lin Mengya felt that something was wrong. She was just about to find an excuse to leave when she heard Murong Xi say,
"I already have a sweetheart. You don't have to worry about me, Your Highness."
"Oh? Which family is she from? "
Lin Mengya pricked up her ears. She knew the answer, but she could not help but look forward to it.
"She is, of course, the best girl in the world. Please stop asking, Your Highness."
He deliberately beat around the bush. He was probably the only one who dared to speak to the Empress like this.
Unexpectedly, the Empress was not angry. Instead, she said calmly.
"Yes, it doesn't matter which family she is from. In any case, she is worthy of you. Don't let her down in the future. "
"Yes, I won't."
The more Lin Mengya listened, the more she felt that something was wrong. She looked up subconsciously and saw that the two people's eyes were on her.
However, Murong Xi's eyes were full of love, while the Empress's eyes were slightly teasing and kind.
She understood everything in an instant.
"I, I have other things to do. I'll take my leave."
That bold guy!
He must have told the Empress about his relationship with her, right?
