Therefore, when they saw that Qinghu was a newcomer, they took the initiative to put him inside.
She smiled when she saw Qinghu guarding outside her courtyard alone, and those people had all retreated to the shore.
She moved a small stool and sat beside Qinghu.
"Lass, how did you do that?"
Qinghu couldn't help but be curious. Why did these people seem to dislike her so much?
She narrowed her eyes, hiding her strength and fame.
"Maybe it's my personal charm."
Well, it was mainly the power of words.
Qinghu looked at her suspiciously, and then looked at the group of guards.
This little lass of his was always unfathomable.
After Qinghu came, she got more information.
The Emperor was dissatisfied with many of the Queen's actions.
After all, Yu was his nephew.
No matter how hard the Queen worked, she couldn't be the Queen's family.
Therefore, the first thing the Emperor did was to forcefully send back the sons and nephews of the Emperor's maternal family.
She thought that the Queen would at least restrain herself a little, but she didn't care at all and still did what she wanted.
A few days later, the Emperor's trusted eunuch appeared in front of her.
"Miss Gong, His Majesty invites you to go to him."
At that time, the injury on her leg had already healed.
But she still limped, pretending that she was not well.
"Yes, I will obey. May I ask why His Majesty wants me to go to him? "
She didn't have much feelings for the Emperor.
But the impression she had in the past couldn't determine the future.
After all, the Queen used to be on the same side as her.
But now, they had gone their separate ways.
The eunuch bowed slightly and smiled politely, but his tone was very tactful.
"How can I guess His Majesty's mind at will? But I think it's not a bad thing that His Majesty admires Miss Gong very much. "
Hearing what he said, she felt even more uncertain in her heart.
Feeling a little apprehensive, she immediately finished her preparations and brought Shang'er with her, following behind the eunuch as they walked towards His Majesty's bedchamber.
It was quite a distance from where she was to the bedchamber. The Emperor had even arranged a small sedan chair for her.
When she arrived at His Majesty's bedchamber, the eunuch led her to the warm room and left.
She stood obediently in the warm room, and the two of them did not have any unnecessary conversation.
After waiting for a while, he heard movement outside.
"Your subject Gong Ya greets Your Majesty."
She bowed down gracefully. Her etiquette was flawless.
Feeling the Emperor's gaze on her, Lin Mengya did not dare to be negligent.
"Mm, get up. I heard that you were injured? "
The Emperor's voice was cold and indifferent. It was like a piece of top-grade jade, cold and smooth.
Although it made people feel the majesty of an emperor, it did not make people feel too afraid.
In short, it was the tone of a superior.
"It's just a small injury. It's nothing serious."
Her attitude was neither servile nor overbearing, but she did not lack the necessary respect.
The Emperor sat behind the desk in front of her and looked at her with his sharp eyes.
"I heard that Your Highness intends to let you marry the Crown Prince?"
"Your Highness, I'm indebted to Your Highness. I don't deserve it."
The Emperor's gaze suddenly sharpened.
"Do you think that the Crown Prince is not worthy of you?"
Lin Mengya rolled her eyes in her heart. Although the husband and wife did not get along, there were some things that were exactly the same.
He clearly knew that her heart belonged to someone else, but he still asked the obvious question.
"No, that's not what I meant. The Crown Prince is a dragon among men, and I can't afford to reach him. "
"Then, is my nephew a good match for you?"
The Emperor's tone was obviously not friendly. She had to deal with it carefully.
"That's not what I meant."
"Gong Ya, you're a smart person. You should know that in my eyes, Xi is the same as Yan. They are both my right-hand men. You don't want to marry Yan, but want to marry Xi. Aren't you trying to make the two brothers fall out? "
The Emperor's question was getting sharper.
Lin Mengya knew that it would not be easy to get through this today.
Obviously, it was not her style to keep silent.
Since the Emperor had said it so straightforwardly, she could not continue to play dumb.
"Your Majesty, please understand. What happened between me and Prince Xi is between me and Prince Xi. However, marrying the Crown Prince is not what I said, but out of kindness, Your Highness. "
"So you're saying that all this is Your Highness's fault?"
She gritted her teeth and silently cursed the couple for being so unreasonable.
One forced her to marry, and the other blamed her for marrying the Crown Prince.
They were obviously the ones who made a mistake. What did it have to do with her?
"I don't dare …"
"You don't dare to say that in front of me?"
"Your Majesty!"
She finally could not stand it anymore.
"Your Majesty, both of you have decided on my marriage before. At that time, I followed your orders and did not dare to disobey. But now, both of you are playing with my marriage. My marriage is a small matter, but if it gets out, the world will criticize it. They will say that both of you change your orders every day and damage your reputation. "
The Emperor did not expect her to have the courage to contradict him.
He sneered and said.
"Who in the world dares to criticize me?"
Lin Mengya also sneered in her heart, but she did not show it on her face.
"Your Majesty, justice is in everyone's heart. Moreover, in such a big country, there will always be people who will disobey your orders. When that time comes, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to stop the people's mouths. "
She finished her words unhurriedly, but this time, the Emperor did not reprimand her immediately.
His eyes suddenly turned cold, and the hidden killing intent was revealed inch by inch.
"Then, I will kill you now."
"If Your Majesty wants to kill me, why waste your time talking to me? Your Majesty, there is a king only when there are ministers. If there are no ministers, then the king is not a king. "
She hoped that the Emperor and the Queen would understand one thing first.
She had the Gong Family as a strong backing. Once the rule of the Divine Temple collapsed, how many of the royal families would sincerely submit to her?
All this time, both the Emperor and the Queen had obviously treated her like a child.
They pressured her only because they hoped that she would sincerely submit to them.
She was sure that when dealing with those powerful families, they would mainly appease and rope them in.
They took advantage of her young age and unfamiliar face, so they used this trick on her.
Unfortunately, it did not work at all.
She was a newcomer, but she was not a fool.
"You've got guts! Don't forget that the Gong Family now is not the Gong Family of the past! "
The Emperor coldly stared at her. At this moment, the guards who had been hiding in the hall were ready to kill her.
However, she was still calm and collected.
"Your Majesty, everyone in the world wants the throne. Only the Gong Family does not want it. Do you think it's better to break their own arms? It's better to let nature take its course. "
Her confident tone made the Emperor hesitate.
In fact, she was right. Everyone in the world wanted the throne, but the Gong Family did not.
They only thought that the master of their family was this girl in front of them.
"The small Gong Family is not worth my effort. Apart from you, there are others who can help me control the Gong Family. Don't forget that you're not the only one in the world. "
Her heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Lin Mengwu had made contact with the Emperor.
But none of this mattered. She smiled and said calmly.
"Your Majesty, you are right. I'm not the only one in the world. But the only one who can control the Gong Family and be of use to you is me. "
If she died, the Gong Family would immediately fall apart.
By that time, the Gong Family might rebel, let alone take over the Gong Family.
The Emperor did not speak, because he realized that he could not gain the upper hand in front of this girl.
This was different from what he had imagined.
After a long while, he spoke.
"So, I can't do anything to you? Gong Ya, you must know that even if the Sage Temple collapses, I will still be the Emperor of Wei Country. "
Of course, she knew that. But some things were not so simple.
"Of course, I know that. So, I'm here to help Your Majesty. Your Majesty, the world can only be at peace when the world is united. Your Majesty, you are the Emperor. No one can replace you, and no one can control you. "
The Emperor fell silent again, but his murderous intent was gradually receding.
Lin Mengya could sense the change in the atmosphere. She could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
Indeed, it took courage to go against someone.
"What you said is not without reason. Gong Ya, it seems that I've underestimated you. "
His Majesty's tone was a little less severe.
But Lin Mengya knew that she was not out of danger yet.
Previously, she had only resisted a little under the Emperor's overbearing attitude.
The Emperor saw that she was a tough nut to crack, so he let her go for now. But it did not mean that she was safe.
"It's not that Your Majesty has underestimated me. Your Majesty, you are the most powerful person in the world. Why do you need to care about anyone?"
After being tough, they gave each other a way out.
She showed her sincerity first, and it was up to the Emperor to show her respect.
I can't reason with a woman from the Gong Family. "
There was a hidden meaning in her words!
However, apart from her, there was no other woman in the Gong family for the time being.
Could it be her great-grandmother again?
Could it be?
She sneaked a peek at His Majesty the Emperor. The age gap was a little big!
"I'm talking about one of your aunts."
She pricked up her ears, but she did not want to listen.
What if she heard something she was not supposed to hear? She would be in trouble.
"All the women in the Gong Family are so stubborn. I can't even win once! "
She felt so wronged!
But who asked him to be the Emperor? He was the boss, so she could only listen to him obediently.
"Weren't you talking about principles just now? Why are you mute now? "
This sudden turn was a little too sudden.
She did not come to her senses for a moment.
"I dare not. I'm just listening to Your Majesty's teachings."
