"Are, are you threatening me? Let me tell you, I'm much more important than you now. How dare you treat me like this? Aren't you afraid that the Gong family will be punished because of you? "
Yue Qi kept stepping back. His eyes were wide open, revealing the deep fear in his heart. Lin Mengya did not press him.
She just stood there and said softly, "You can give it a try. Once I'm pushed to the extreme, or someone touches my bottom line, I'm capable of doing anything. Don't forget what I did when Elder Sister Yue Ting died. Do you think I care about these things? "
Yue Qi was trembling all over. He suddenly pushed Lin Mengya away and ran out of the Sacred Hall like a frightened rabbit.
"Gong Ya, did Princess Xianghua make things difficult for you just now?"
Ma Lian and Cheng Rusong also saw Yue Qi. But they only saw the scene when Yue Qi pushed her away, and they knew about the love dispute between them. As elders, it was not appropriate for them to interfere.
But Yue Qi's identity was special, and they were afraid that Gong Ya could not handle it.
"No."
She had to have the courage to do that. She had been silent before because she did not want to argue with Yue Qi.
Now, she was probably scared out of her wits.
"Princess Xianghua is not a simple person. You'd better stay away from her in the future. "
Since the calm Cheng Rusong said so, Lin Mengya had to obey him.
Moreover, she also knew that there were many suspicious points about Yue Qi.
Yue Qi also knew how important Qinghu was to her. For the sake of long-term planning, Yue Qi would not do anything to Qinghu.
But this matter slightly disturbed her heart.
"Tomorrow is the third day. If there is any sign from the Oracle, it usually starts on the third day. Gong Ya, you have to be prepared. "
Ma Lian said in a low voice, and Lin Mengya had to suppress her anxiety and cheer up.
But so far, there was no sign of her feeling anything.
"Uncles, do you know how the Divine Oracle came about? Are there any premonitions, or what methods did they use? "
Unexpectedly, the two people looked at each other helplessly and shook their heads.
Ma Lian awkwardly rubbed his hands and said, "It's not that we don't want to help you. It's just that the Oracle is very mysterious. Apart from the Hall Master, the most recent oracle was when your family's previous Patriarch came to participate in the Full Moon Ceremony. However, I don't think there will be an oracle this time. "
"Oh? Why is that? "
Ma Lian glanced at Cheng Rusong, but the latter turned his head away with a cold expression, causing Ma Lian to secretly grind his teeth.
"Ahem, that's because you haven't gone through the succession ceremony yet, right?"
She nodded. Long Tianhao had mentioned this to her before. It seemed that the Holy Senior had to come and acknowledge it in person during the middle of the Full Moon Sacrifice.
"I've heard that the Patriarch of your family can only get married after the succession ceremony."
He shifted his gaze and paused for a moment before continuing, "I heard that every time the Oracle comes down, the Gong Family's Patriarch always gives birth to the next successor."
After beating around the bush for half a day, it turned out to be because of this matter.
She didn't think much of it, but Ma Lian felt a little embarrassed. After saying goodbye, he left in a hurry.
Cheng Rusong nodded at her and ran away like the wind.
Lin Mengya was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but smile.
These two people had been fooling around for a long time just because they were embarrassed!
She also walked towards the exit, but she didn't notice that behind her, there was a pair of eyes closely following her figure. It was so intoxicated that it watched her completely disappear from sight …
Yingzi and Taozi stayed close to Lin Mengya, but they wouldn't get in her way.
Therefore, when Ma Beichen came again, they just stood at the door with their heads down. If Lin Mengya didn't say anything, they wouldn't come in.
"What's wrong? Didn't your father beat you half to death when he went back? "
She teased him with a smile. It seemed that she was in a good mood.
Only then did Ma Beichen feel relieved. He squeezed out a cool smile on his handsome face.
"I've heard that it's all thanks to our Miss Gong that I can keep my legs. So I'm here to thank her! "
Lin Mengya curled her lips and said with a fake smile, "Oh, it's your father who asked you to give them to me, right? Taozi, bring me a machete, and I'll do it myself. Thank you for your kindness, Master Ma. "
Ma Beichen's smile immediately turned into tears, and he almost knelt down in front of her.
"I was wrong, I was wrong! My father told me to thank you properly and apologize to you at the same time! Please be magnanimous and forgive me. "
This guy was so quick to admit his mistake.
"Well, anyway, it's useless for me to take your legs. Have you caught the person who gave you the news? "
Ma Beichen gritted his teeth when she mentioned this.
"He probably got wind of it and escaped in advance. But don't worry, unless An Ruchu can hide in the Divine Hall for the rest of his life. Otherwise, I'll catch him even if he escapes to the ends of the earth! "
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes and a cold smile appeared on her lips.
That day, Long Tianyu's men found out that Ma Beichen and his men went straight to the An family to look for An Ruchu.
Unfortunately, they didn't find her.
To be honest, Lin Mengya was a little surprised.
The An Ruchu she knew was a little practical and powerful, but he wouldn't do such a thing.
Now that she thought about it, it was true that one couldn't judge a book by its cover.
"How did you get in touch with him?"
"Hmph! That shameless man took the initiative to look for me. He said that he didn't want to see the An family continue to make mistakes, so he wanted to do something good for them and clean up the mess. He hoped that we could at least show mercy to the An family in the future. I also felt that he was not as shameless as the other An family members, so I believed him. I didn't expect him to lie to me! "
She took a sip of tea and didn't say anything.
Things couldn't be as simple as Ma Beichen said. Even if he could be deceived, the old master of the Ma family obviously knew about it.
An Ruchu could deceive everyone, which meant that at least he had provided real clues before.
Even if it was about this matter, he did not lie. It was just that the time was a little off.
"Did he tell you personally, or did he ask someone to pass the news to you?"
Ma Beichen was stunned, then he thought about it.
"He said that he was afraid of arousing suspicion, so he sent a manservant to pass the news to me every time. It was the same for the previous few times. Do you suspect that the manservant did something? "
She shook her head. It was too early to make any conclusions before they caught the culprit.
"Did he tell you what exactly the An clan and the Baili clan are planning?"
Ma Beichen shook his head.
But it was right. This kind of thing was confidential. Even the masters they caught that night said that they didn't know much about it, let alone others.
"Gong Ya, I heard that you and His Highness Xi are a couple?"
She raised her eyebrows and looked at Ma Beichen. The latter smiled brightly and returned to his usual carefree self.
"I heard that His Highness Xi will not only marry one wife in the future. Why don't you consider me?"
Before she could finish her words, Lin Mengya's sharp eyes caught sight of a figure walking towards the door.
He walked quietly, obviously on purpose.
She lowered her eyes and pretended to be a little shy.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You and I are just ordinary friends. "
"We are friends now, but we can be different in the future! I know the rules of your family. I can marry into your family! But not His Highness Xi. He is too noble. I am not as practical as him. "
She stole a glance at the person behind Ma Beichen. His eyes were about to burst into flames.
"But you have so many lovers, I'm afraid …"
"I was just playing. Since I met you, I know what it means to be unforgettable. Don't worry, as long as you give me this chance, I will turn over a new leaf! "
Lin Mengya lowered her head and fiddled with the corner of her clothes, showing the rare shyness of a little girl.
Ma Beichen thought that he had a chance and couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"If you agree, I will go back and tell my father to ask him to come to your family immediately!"
"You don't have to go down this mountain."
An ice-cold voice came from the sky, and it was filled with the repressed anger from before.
Ma Beichen trembled and immediately jumped up from his seat. He looked at His Highness who suddenly appeared behind him.
"Your, Your Highness!"
Oh no! He had been found out by the person involved!
But Ma Beichen regained his composure in the blink of an eye.
"Your Highness, what do you mean? There are rules in the Holy Hall, and we dare not violate them. "
Long Tianhao looked at the man in front of him expressionlessly, but a storm was brewing in the depths of his eyes.
"When you die, you can be placed in the Holy Hall."
This was a special honor in the aristocratic families, but only the most outstanding people could receive it.
"I don't think I need it. The Ma family has strict rules, and we don't allow people to die outside. But Your Highness, a fair lady is a good match for a gentleman. I, Ma Beichen, am not a shameless person. Let me tell you in front of you today. I've also taken a fancy to Gong Ya. Unless you marry her, I'll pursue her even if I die! "
After saying that, he quickly walked away.
If it wasn't for his determined face, Lin Mengya would have thought that he was running away out of fear.
But that speed … was too fast, wasn't it?
"He has gone far, what are you looking at!"
His tone was obviously displeased, but it made Lin Mengya smile until her eyes turned into crescents.
"Well, why are you jealous? You know who is in my heart."
She came to her senses and smiled as she pushed the newly added warm tea in front of him.
He picked it up and drank it in one gulp.
Unfortunately, his cold aura scared Cherry and Peach so much that they didn't even dare to breathe.
"Don't be like this, good girl. I was teasing him on purpose. Didn't you see it?"
She took the initiative to take Long Tianhao's hand and put her little hand in his palm. He held it tightly.
