After reading it, she placed the letter back into his hands, the corners of her lips raised, and she smiled.
"Well, the emperor is not in a good situation. He has held on until now, but he is at the end of his rope. "
He burned the letter with the candles in front of him.
He knew the emperor's situation better than anyone else.
This was also the reason why the emperor finally compromised.
After all, no one wanted a life-and-death struggle.
"You're right. But I didn't expect the emperor to tell us about the messenger from the Immortal City. He is going to betray the Immortal City."
She raised her eyebrows, her tone carrying a hint of mockery.
But she could not be blamed. After all, the emperor had left a bad impression on her.
Moreover, rather than saying that this person was decisive, it was more accurate to say that he was ruthless.
Although she also did not like the messenger from the Immortal City.
"Now is not the time for him to hesitate. The three kings are ready to make a move, and the Baili family is also recruiting soldiers. If he continued to hesitate, the throne might fall into someone else's hands. Instead of that, it is better to fall into the hands of His Highness. "
Baili Wuchen sat on the chair and sneered disdainfully.
His eyes had been replaced by artificial eyes by Lin Mengya.
Now, if one did not look closely, one would not be able to see anything.
But he was not as gloomy as before, and seemed to be more cheerful.
Similarly, Ling Ye had also changed.
In short, these changes should be considered a relatively good direction for them.
"Well, it is true. Your Highness, what should we do?"
Ling Ye also looked at Long Tianhao. At this moment, Long Tianhao was looking down and thinking about something.
Lin Mengya looked at him and rolled her eyes.
"Are you worried that we have no chance to get close to that person?"
How could she not know what he was thinking?
"This person is hiding in the ghost market. It seems that he is not easy to deal with. I have a lot of people around me, but this trip to the ghost market cannot be solved by martial arts alone. "
"So, you need the best assistant."
Long Tianhao looked up at her in confusion.
"Who?"
"It's — me!"
She pointed to herself. At the same time, Long Tianhao immediately shook his head and frowned.
"No! It's too dangerous! "
"Don't be in a hurry to deny it. Let me finish."
"No matter what you say, you can't go!"
After rejecting the idea, he seemed to be afraid that she would sneak away and immediately ordered the butler.
"In the future, without my permission and accompaniment, Miss is not allowed to go out!"
Lin Mengya looked at him helplessly, as if he was facing a formidable enemy. She also knew that her previous record was indeed not outstanding.
Left with no choice, he could only try to pacify her.
"Well, well, I won't run away by myself. It's so important and dangerous, it's not like I don't want to live anymore. Listen to me first. If you still object, then I swear that I will listen to you and stay at home obediently, okay? "
Perhaps because of her assurance, Long Tianhao finally calmed down.
However, in his eyes, it was obvious that he didn't agree.
"Actually, it's not necessarily a bad thing for me to go to the Ghost City. Just now, His Majesty's letter said that the person was hiding in the Ghost City. Every time he sent a message, he was very careful when he met him. This shows that this person may not be able to completely control the Ghost City. I think he should be taking advantage of the chaos in the Ghost City to hide his traces. But, why did he do this? "
Several people in the room were lost in thought, but soon, Long Tian obviously had his own answer.
"His identity can't be exposed."
"Yes. As long as he doesn't say anything, no one will know his identity as the messenger of the Immortal City. So, he doesn't have to go to such a chaotic place like the Ghost City. But if his identity is exposed, it will cause a fatal disaster, then he has to choose such a place to hide. "
The messenger of the Immortal City sounded powerful.
But in fact, their situation was also very dangerous.
Because His Majesty was afraid of the Immortal City, not this little messenger.
As long as His Majesty was slightly disloyal, then there were thousands of ways to make this person die quietly.
So, in order to protect himself, he was so cautious.
This person was indeed worthy of being able to suppress His Majesty. He was really smart.
"So, in fact, it is possible that all these years, the person who has been in contact with His Majesty may be the messenger's agent?"
Baili Wuchen said tentatively. Lin Mengya nodded. It was very likely.
Presumably, this was one of the reasons why His Majesty was anxious to use their hands to get rid of this messenger.
After all, the imperial court did not intervene in the affairs of Jianghu.
What's more, his throne was originally not stable.
"What does this have to do with you?"
After such a big circle, this person still did not forget his original intention.
Lin Mengya smiled and said softly.
"The reason why the Ghost City is so mysterious and chaotic is that it has enough powerful forces, and also because it is inextricably linked with some of the big forces in the country. Such an intricate relationship makes it so that no one dares to touch it easily. First, no one wants to expose themselves, and second, because these people are not strong enough to swallow the Ghost City. "
She raised her eyes, revealing a few glimmers.
Several others clearly saw that the woman's eyes were filled with the domineering aura of a ruler!
"Do you want to swallow the whole Ghost City?"
She was ambitious, and he had never been clear about this.
He had never doubted her strength.
But it was obviously not that simple.
"It's impossible. The Ghost City will not be swallowed by you so easily. Ya 'er, I know you are anxious, but you can't take risks out of desperation. "
He was the first to deny, but Lin Mengya was not angry.
"No, Yu, you're wrong. Maybe others can't, but I can. "
He was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Why?"
"Because I'm a ghost that everyone wants. The Ghost City is so chaotic that there is no need for rules. All the rules that exist now don't work there. And I happen to be a person who doesn't like to abide by rules. But I can attract a lot of people's attention. So, I'm the most suitable one. Don't forget, I'm the biggest fat sheep in Weiguo. Tell me, among the people in the Ghost City, who doesn't want me? "
She was very clear about her own situation.
Not to mention that she was the target of the Immortal City, just for the Gong family behind her, who didn't want to control her in their hands and gain Gong Ya's great wealth?
What the people in the Ghost City wanted was nothing more than money and strength.
Over there, only these two things could be used to charge around.
And this was exactly suitable for her.
She had enough money, and she didn't lack strength.
She was sure that when she returned this time, the group of escaped slaves on Mount Yanxia would become her most solid and powerful force.
But those escaped slaves on Mount Yanxia needed a battlefield.
But now, all parties had their own considerations and preparations, and had no time to care about them.
Therefore, the Ghost City was the most suitable place for her to train this group of people.
According to her goal, by the time she completely controls the Ghost City, the more than two thousand people will also become a powerful force.
In this way, she would have the power to protect her own people in the chaos.
"It still won't work! The more you say like this, the more dangerous I feel. "
Seeing that he still didn't understand, Lin Mengya could only sigh.
"You, why are you so confused? In fact, the Ghost City was like a big dye vat. Everyone wanted to control it, but they were also afraid of being engulfed by it. After all, if one family made a move against the Ghost City, then the other families would definitely attack in order to protect their own interests, or to plot to seize the Ghost City. So, they didn't dare to move. But I'm different. Although I will have the Gong family's wealth, the people on Mount Yanxia, and your help. But now, I'm a non-existent person. Think about it, that Immortal City's envoy was afraid of exposing his identity. This shows that he is still a person with status, at least the kind that His Majesty the Emperor would not be unfamiliar with. And those in power behind the scenes, which one of them would dare to stand out and reveal their identity? "
In fact, the reason was very simple. People with great power did not dare to openly stand out and invade the Ghost City.
And in the eyes of the righteous and the evil, she had long "disappeared".
So, no one would know her origin. And she would also have a lot less worries, and the things she did would also have a lot less pressure.
"But, they won't just watch you take control of the Ghost City, right? No, they will still deal with you! "
"Then let them come, don't worry. The reason why the Ghost City is strong is that it is fragmented and balanced by all sides. Once it is united, then the Ghost City will fall apart in an instant. After all, everyone's background is not clean. Everyone is playing around with their faces covered. Once they take off their masks, won't they fight to the death first? "
She understood this kind of thing very well.
But Long Tianhao was still worried. After all, even if she had some convenient conditions, she was still in danger.
At this time, the door of the study was knocked three times.
Long Tianhao raised his voice and said, "Come in." It was Baisu who came in.
"Master, Your Highness, this is a letter just sent by the Crown Prince. Please have a look."
The housekeeper was not here, so Baisu and San 'er would naturally be responsible for dealing with things in the farm.
After Long Tianhao took the letter, he hurriedly read it.
And Lin Mengya saw that Baisu seemed to have something else to say.
"If you have something to say, say it. By the way, where is San 'er?"
"San 'er is talking with someone. The person who sent the letter is Aunt Jinyue."
Aunt Jinyue?
Lin Mengya suddenly stood up and stared at Baisu.
"How could it be Aunt Jinyue? Did something happen to my mother?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Long Tianhao also put down the letter in his hand and looked a little pale.
"You said that my mother is my …"
She turned her head and looked at Long Tianhao.
Aunt Jinyue and her mother-in-law, the Imperial Noble Consort of Jin State, were a pair of master and servant.
