Baiji wiped away her tears and her eyes were filled with determination.
She had already made up her mind. If things did not work out, she would go all out and say that she was the one who made those things.
At most, she would die, but she would be able to protect her master.
"No, Baiji, you have so many brothers and sisters at home. If something happens to you, what will happen to the others?"
Baishao, on the other hand, shook her head with all her might. Her beautiful face was crying miserably.
"Master, let me go. My mother is greedy. As long as you give her a large sum of money, she won't care about her daughter's life. Let me go. I'll still be your maid in my next life. "
The miserable wind and rain in the room made Lin Mengya feel very sad.
She used to think that she was just a stranger in this world.
Little did she expect that the seed she had planted had already sprouted, blossomed, and bore fruit.
"Oh, don't cry, all of you. I'm here, no one can do anything to you! "
With arms akimbo, Qinghu had completely adapted to his identity as a woman.
Calling her 'old lady' every time was exceptionally pleasing to the mouth.
Lin Mengya was speechless. How could she forget about this scourge?
"Don't worry. Although I can't fight against a group of people, I can still break out of prison easily. If I really put you in prison, I'll carry you out, one in each hand. "
Looking at the guy's arrogant look, the sad atmosphere which had lasted for a while collapsed in an instant.
Lin Mengya did not know what to say. Was this prison his vegetable garden?
Even if it was a vegetable garden, they were not cucumbers and potatoes which could be picked at will.
"Your Highness, why are you here?"
Baiji's timid voice was heard. She tugged at Lin Mengya's sleeve and looked nervously at the figure at the door.
Long Tianhao was standing there. He had been standing there and listening since Baiji and Baishao were fighting to be the scapegoat for Lin Mengya.
He did not know what kind of feelings made Baiji and Baishao give up the courage to live and fight to be the scapegoat for Lin Mengya.
But he knew that Lin Mengya was no less important to those two girls than her own family.
"I will protect you."
It was as if he was swearing an oath. Long Tianhao turned around and left. He did not stop at all.
Looking at his back, Lin Mengya kept repeating these words in her heart.
He was really — ridiculously handsome.
Long Tianhao was not one to make promises easily. However, he would always keep his promises.
For some unknown reason, Lin Mengya's wildly beating heart calmed down.
How strange. Clearly, he had only said one sentence.
"We're saved. We're all saved. Master, that's great."
Baishao burst into tears of joy. In their hearts, Long Tianhao was also a man of his word.
However, Lin Mengya did not know why there was another emotion in her heart.
That man was always able to inadvertently give her warmth that made her heart tremble.
"Alright, keep your spirits up. Since the prince has spoken, we have to do our best. Baiji, Baishao, and Baisu, don't cry anymore. "
The three maidservants nodded vigorously. Fortunately, under Lin Mengya's subtle influence, the four maidservants had learned how to control their emotions, except for Baizhi.
"Then let's continue the test!"
Lin Mengya was suddenly full of energy. With Long Tianhao as her trump card, there was nothing she could not do!
"Okay!"
The three maidservants said in unison, with their signature expressions on their faces, and walked out of the door of the wing room.
"I thought you were going to run away."
Unexpectedly, they met Princess Ming Yue the moment they stepped out.
This time, Ming Yue could not help feeling a little resentful that she failed to kill them with one blow.
"I, Lin Mengya, will never run away. There is no such rule in the Lin family."
Lin Mengya did not give in at all.
Ming Yue was so angry that she laughed, as if she was sure that Lin Mengya could not escape.
"Don't be so stubborn, Miss Lin. Your father and brother are far away at the border. Oh, no, your brother will be back in the capital city in a few days. Tsk, tsk, it's a pity that the young general was implicated by his sister. "
Ming Yue's tone was very vicious.
But Lin Mengya was not affected at all. When it came to having a vicious tongue, no one dared to admit that they were second best.
"The Lin family has been loyal for generations, and there will be people to judge the right and wrong. However, the Lin family is very strict, and we will never allow our daughter to become a topic of gossip among the ruffians. Also, call me Princess Yu. "
Every word Lin Mengya said was to poke at Ming Yue's wound.
The word 'Princess Yu' was enough to make Ming Yue go crazy.
In addition, Lin Mengya once again brought up the scandal of Ming Yue. Suddenly, this beautiful princess wanted to turn into a beast and tear Lin Mengya into pieces.
"Excuse me, Your Highness. Please help yourself."
Lin Mengya walked forward gracefully, not taking Princess Ming Yue's vicious gaze seriously.
"Lin Mengya, sooner or later, I'll trample you under my feet!"
Ming Yue glared fiercely at Lin Mengya's back and gritted her teeth. She looked as if she wanted to tear Lin Mengya into pieces.
"Master, what did you say to Princess Ming Yue just now?"
Baiji came up to Lin Mengya worriedly. When Princess Ming Yue was in the mansion, they had met a few times.
How to put it, the princess was very beautiful, second only to Lin Mengya.
However, they had a feeling that the princess was not as simple as she appeared to be.
In addition, the rumors about the princess spread all over the place. From the bottom of their hearts, they felt that there was something wrong with the princess.
"Don't worry about her. Come on, let's do what we need to do."
Lin Mengya shook her head, trying to get rid of all the thoughts that she should not have.
Finally, it was the last few people to be screened. Lin Mengya looked at the name list and found that it was Jiang Ruqin who was the main suspect.
Lin Mengya lowered her eyes. She had already guessed who did it.
Therefore, she deliberately asked Baiji to leave Jiang Ruqin until the end.
The more people were screened, the more anxious they felt.
What she wanted was to make Jiang Ruqin frightened by the mere twang of a bow.
"Next, Miss Jiang Ruqin, maidservant Xing 'er."
Baiji was still reading the names calmly, but Jiang Ruqin's palms were full of cold sweat.
She tried to signal Xing 'er with her eyes, but Xing' er was trembling and did not dare to raise her head.
"Don't forget the lives of your parents and brother!"
Jiang Ruqin whispered in Xing 'er's ear.
The poor girl was trembling, as if she was about to collapse.
"Miss, please treat my family well."
Xing 'er finally made up her mind. She struggled to walk out of the line with her trembling body.
"Xing 'er, what are you doing?"
Jiang Ruqin was overjoyed.
Finally, Lin Mengya was doomed, but she pretended that she did not know anything.
"Miss … Xing 'er, I'm guilty."
Under everyone's gaze, Xing 'er knelt on the ground and burst into tears.
The Empress, who had been resting with her eyes closed, was startled by the sound of crying. She opened her eyes, but her phoenix eyes swept sharply over the trembling figure.
"Oh? What crime did you commit? Tell me. "
Sacrificing the rook to save the king? Lin Mengya immediately understood, but she was not in a hurry.
Instead, her voice was full of playfulness.
"Now that things have come to this, I can't hide it for you. It was Princess Yu who asked me to do this. Her purpose was to frame my Miss!"
Xing 'er's words caused an uproar.
Lin Mengya looked at Xing 'er, who was kneeling on the ground, and Jiang Ruqin, who was watching from the side.
"Really? Did I ask you to do this? "
Xing 'er looked at Lin Mengya with fear, but she still nodded heavily.
"It's … it's Princess Yu who bribed me. I was confused for a moment."
Everyone turned to look at Lin Mengya.
However, she did not panic at all.
Jiang Ruqin, who was secretly proud of herself, wanted to laugh out loud.
Lin Mengya, how long could you be proud!
"I bribed you? Do you have any evidence? "
Looking at Xing 'er, who was kneeling on the ground, Lin Mengya sighed in her heart.
From the little girl's words and actions, she could feel that Xing 'er was forced to do this.
However, to help her master do evil, she had to be determined to die.
She would not show mercy to any enemy.
"I … I have a banknote as proof!"
With trembling hands, she took out a new banknote from her clothes.
"Bring it to me!"
The Empress said in an imposing manner, and the aunt beside her immediately did as she was told.
Under everyone's gaze, the banknote was sent to the Empress.
She glanced at him with her phoenix eyes and said,
"Yes, it is indeed for the royal family. What else do you have to say, Princess Yu? "
There was no anger, not even a question.
No one understood the Empress's intention.
Lin Mengya just smiled, turned around, and continued to interrogate Xing 'er.
"You said I gave it to you, right?"
Xing 'er nodded without hesitation. In fact, it was Jiang Ruqin who had just given it to her.
"Well, Baishao, come and have a look. Is this our banknote?"
As soon as Lin Mengya finished her words, Baishao came forward, knelt on the ground, and carefully examined it.
"Princess, this is not our banknote. There is something missing on it."
Baishao's words made Jiang Ruqin frown.
No, this was the banknote that everyone in the mansion used. Why was there something missing?
She was obviously quibbling.
"Then tell me, what is it?"
Lin Mengya was calm, as if she did not care at all.
"Your Highness, we will print your personal seal on our banknotes. The banknote in each mansion is sent by the Imperial Clan Court. To distinguish the banknote, it is stamped with the private seal of each mansion. This one is missing. "
