It seemed that there was a strict hierarchy in the Holy Palace, just like the outside world.
However, those people seemed to be in a hurry just now. What kind of official business did they go to deal with?
"Captain, let's go quickly."
One of the guard leader's slightly smarter men reminded him. The guard leader nodded and ordered everyone to leave immediately.
Lin Mengya felt that what happened today was a little strange.
But she couldn't tell what exactly it was.
The Holy City was different from Dragon City. There were no shops here.
Moreover, almost all of the residences were exactly the same.
It was only when she entered that she realized that the walls and houses were all white.
This kind of overly monotonous color was fine when seen from afar.
But after watching it for a long time, one would find it extremely dull and boring.
Maybe this was the difference between immortals and ordinary people like them.
Outside each courtyard, there would be a plaque of the same style.
It was neatly arranged, showing a sense of precision and dryness.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the house that belonged to the Gong family.
"This is the Gong family. Miss, please have a good rest. We'll take our leave now."
After putting her and Baisu at the door, the guard leader left with his men.
"Master, what do they mean by this?"
Baisu looked puzzled. She had made preparations just now, but none of them were used.
This was very strange.
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes and looked in the direction where the guard leader's carriage disappeared.
If she guessed correctly, the guard leader should want her to hide from someone.
But she had no idea who that person was.
Because this was the only way she could avoid being exposed in front of others.
As for who the guard leader was, it was easy to understand.
Except for that person who was always overprotective of her, who else could have the ability to ask the guards to move?
What on earth was that guy up to?
"Master, let's go in and wait."
Baisu suggested. Lin Mengya nodded, and they pushed open the door of the Gong family.
Compared with the plain white outside, the decoration inside was much better.
Although it was a little old, one could still feel the exquisiteness and splendor of the past.
It seemed that although the outside was similar, the inside should be decorated according to one's preferences.
That was good too. If everyone stayed in the same house, they wouldn't even know if they went the wrong way.
There were no servants in the Sacred Palace. After every Full Moon Ceremony, the servants would have to leave with their masters. No one dared to stay here.
But every time before they came, they could fork out some silver for the believers of the Holy Cathedral to help clean up.
She didn't do anything else after coming here. Instead, she was busy checking out her surroundings.
It was just like checking for pinhole cameras after checking into a hotel in his previous life.
She busied herself for a while. Fortunately, there was nothing unusual here.
It was already dark. Lin Mengya stood at the door, looking forward to it.
Why aren't Shang 'er and Ning' er here yet? Could it be that they met someone who made things difficult for them at the entrance?
But after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely. After all, apart from their people, Long Tianhao had also left some people behind.
At most, his people would reveal his identity, and then he would see who would dare to say anything.
Just as he was waiting, the crisp sound of horse hooves could be heard from afar.
Lin Mengya immediately jumped out, but saw a few fine horses in front of her.
"Why are you standing at the door?"
Long Tianhao got off the horse neatly, looked at her, who was not even wearing a cloak, and asked in a low voice.
"I'm waiting for Shang 'er and the rest. It's been so long, why haven't I seen them?"
She stood on tiptoe and looked behind him.
Her little face was full of anxiety, and she couldn't suppress it no matter what.
Other than Shang 'er, her baby was still in the carriage.
What if there was an accident? What should she do?
"They're fine, I've already asked someone to bring them in. Don't worry, let's go in and talk. "
Although there was no one on the street now, she firmly remembered the saying, "Even the walls have ears".
They immediately returned to the courtyard. Baisu and a guard beside Long Tianhao closed the door tightly and stood at the door, looking at them.
"Where's the baby? Where's Shang 'er and the rest? And Cai Ling, how are they now? "
She threw out a series of questions before sitting down.
Long Tianhao smiled and felt that Lin Mengya, who was so restless, was really interesting.
"Why do you always look at me with such a smile? I'm asking you, Long Tianhao, if you continue to do this, I'll be angry! "
Did this guy still want to joke with her at this time?
Seeing that she was really angry, Long Tianhao waved his hand and comforted her.
"It's okay, they've all come in. Don't worry, everyone is fine. "
Finally, his heart was at ease.
Since everyone was fine, then there was no problem. However, she still felt that there was something strange about today's incident.
"Long Tianhao, are you hiding something from me?"
This time, she put on a posture that he had to tell her.
She stared at him with a pair of round eyes, and her face was angry, which was indescribably cute.
Seeing her like this, Long Tianhao felt an itch in his heart.
His wife was so lovable!
"I won't tease you anymore. How much can you guess about today's incident?"
Well, he didn't tease her anymore, and changed it to a guessing game.
Lin Mengya rolled her eyes and said bluntly.
"I can roughly guess what happened. That guard team was sent by you, right? Also, among the aristocratic families who entered the city today, there are people who want to harm me, right? "
He nodded. It was more or less the same.
"Then tell me, how do they want to harm you?"
Could it be that this fellow was addicted to testing her?
"They don't want to harm me here, because we changed the time on the road, and there is no sign of the Gong Family in the carriage, so no one can know my identity except for the captain of the guards and those people at the gate. You asked them to bring me in alone, because you are afraid that I will be accidentally exposed when my identity is checked. In this way, everyone who knows me will know that I've arrived in the Sacred City. This is the first reason. "
"Then, what's the second reason?"
"The second reason is to avoid the group of people who went out. In fact, even the so-called Saint at the door should be one of your people. He deliberately stopped the carriage, in fact, to wait for those people to come over. After the two parties brushed past each other, it was impossible for them and me to meet again in the Holy City. In other words, you only found out that they went out after you entered the city. So, you chose to take a risk and play the dark under the light. "
If their target was her, then if they met outside, they would definitely investigate clearly.
And in the city, they must have already checked.
Of course, there was no problem with the guards, and ordinary people would not suspect their carriage.
Moreover, the Saint deliberately made things difficult, so no one would think that the people in the carriage were suspicious.
"Yes, all the answers are correct. My clever wife, what kind of reward do you want? "
He smiled from ear to ear, but Lin Mengya wanted to beat him up.
"Can I take your life?"
She said with a fake smile, and Long Tianhao knew that he might have angered his wife.
"Okay, okay, okay, I'll tell you."
"Actually, this is what happened."
He spoke tirelessly, but Lin Mengya trembled with fear as she listened.
"After I came in, I was supposed to go to the Holy Temple to pay my respects to the teacher. Who knew, my informant here told me that someone among the Saints offered a high reward for killing you. They are trying to kill you when you are on duty in the Temple. Because no one had accepted the mission, it was only until the day before yesterday that someone accepted the mission. The group of people you see are the 'Hunters'. "
Hunters?
There was not even a mouse in the Sacred Mountain, how could there be hunters?
"They are different from ordinary hunters. The hunters here specialize in hunting down those who oppose the Holy Temple."
How could they do that?
Moreover, the Holy Temple had been getting worse in recent years, and no one could avoid this.
Therefore, there were more and more people who opposed it.
And those hunters were in charge of hunting these 'prey'.
"Isn't it too inhumane? Don't you know that you believe in the Freedom Holy Temple? I believe in whoever I want to believe.
What's the matter? "
"You can say this in front of me, but don't say it in front of me, or you will be beaten up."
Long Tianhao was rarely humorous, but Lin Mengya felt like there was a fishbone stuck in her throat.
"Then why do they want to hunt me? But I am not the one who opposes the Holy Temple on the surface. So, how can they deal with me? "
Long Tianhao caressed her little face and explained patiently.
"The hunters exist not only to get rid of those who oppose the Holy Temple. At the same time, because they have a lot of power. So, in order to make more money, they will use the Holy Temple's name to make money. "
"It seems that I'm really valuable."
Lin Mengya said nonchalantly. She could roughly guess who was using money to buy her life.
It was a pity that Long Tianhao had seen through the Yin's Error Yang's Mistake.
"But, your relationship with the Holy Temple is not that simple, is it?"
She tilted her head and looked at Long Tianhao.
The latter did not deny it, but spread out his hands and cried out that he was innocent.
"I'm just the disciple of the Holy Lord, that's all."
Lin Mengya still wanted to know some things, but that guy kept changing the topic.
It was not until Shang 'er and the baby were sent back unharmed that she temporarily stopped interrogating him.
"Miss, Your Highness."
Shang 'er carried Ning' er carefully. The little girl was petite and cute.
Now, in order to let Ning 'er sleep more soundly, she had raised her arms for a long time.
Lin Mengya did not want to force her, so she immediately took the baby.
