Lin Mengya stubbornly closed her lips and refused to say a word.
Concubine De was so angry that she almost dropped the teacup. Fortunately, Princess Lingnan grabbed it.
"Please calm down, Your Highness. Princess Yu is still young. If she did something wrong, you can teach her a lesson. She doesn't have to be angry. But Hui 'er has suffered. "
Although Princess Lingnan was comforting Concubine De, her words were obviously provocative.
As expected, Concubine De was even angrier.
She pointed at Lin Mengya and trembled with anger.
"Kneel down before me!"
Concubine De shouted angrily. The onlookers couldn't help but worry for Princess Yu.
Although Lin Mengya knelt down unwillingly, she refused to say that she was wrong.
"What did I teach you in the past? How can you manage Prince Yu's Mansion if you are so jealous? "
Concubine De seemed to be really angry. She didn't care that there were other people present and just questioned Lin Mengya.
Tears were swirling in her eyes.
Lin Mengya bit her lips and refused to say a word.
Shangguan Hui, whose lips were slightly blue and wet because of the cold, couldn't help crying in a low voice.
"Miss Shangguan, it's all because I didn't manage my family well. Don't worry, I'll ask the best imperial physician to treat you. "
Concubine De looked at Shangguan Hui apologetically, but there was a trace of doubt in her heart.
Ya 'er was never an impulsive person. She always felt that the atmosphere between them was a little strange.
"Thank you, Your Highness. Hui 'er … thank you for your love. Aunt, aunt, let's go. "
Shangguan Hui had just been fished out of the water. Her luxurious clothes were stuck to her body.
Her hairpins were scattered and her eyes were frightened. She curled up tightly. She didn't look like a lady from a noble family at all.
"Look at what you've done! I'm too ashamed to stay here anymore. I'll deal with you when we get back. "
Concubine De looked as if she was going to die of anger.
At this moment, the eunuch in charge of etiquette came to the side hall to announce the imperial decree.
"The auspicious time has come. Distinguished guests, please take your seats."
Seeing the eunuchs outside, the people who were waiting to watch the show also began to leave.
Lin Mengya knelt there stubbornly. She had been utterly humiliated today.
The crowd gradually dispersed. Shangguan Hui was also taken away by Princess Lingnan. Only Lin Mengya was left in the side hall.
"Master, get up quickly, the ground is cold."
Baisu, who was hiding at the side, hurried to help her master up.
At the same time, he stuffed a small piece of paper into her hand.
"Miss Wang's maid secretly gave it to me."
Baisu whispered into Lin Mengya's ear.
That night, Lin Mengya showed Miss Wang her mother's miserable condition.
Miss Wang, who was usually bold and straightforward, burst into tears.
It turned out that after her mother was rumored to have passed away, her father, Wang Hanlin, had wanted to marry her off.
If she had not insisted on observing mourning for her mother, she would have fallen into her father's trap.
Lin Mengya opened the note and a smile appeared on her face when she saw the beautiful handwriting on it.
"So that's how it is. And here I thought that the Crown Prince had some profound schemes."
She put the note in the candlelight and burned it, turning it into ashes.
Lin Mengya tidied up her clothes and said,
"Let's go. It's time for us to show up."
In the Chun 'en Hall, it was still auspicious and rich. Naturally, the Crown Prince and the Empress were the stars of the banquet.
Because of Shangguan Hui, Lin Mengya also became a celebrity in the banquet.
Unfortunately, there was something else in those people's eyes when they looked at her.
"I'm late. Please forgive me, Your Highness, the Crown Prince and the Empress."
There were still traces of tears on her face, which made Lin Mengya look even more pitiful.
Although he hated Lin Mengya to the core. As a man, he could not help but want to make such a beauty his own.
There was a hint of hesitation in the Crown Prince's eyes, but vice Princess Dugu had seen it all.
Unexpectedly, the Crown Prince was interested in that woman. Lin Mengya was really a strong opponent for her.
"It doesn't matter. It's just a family banquet. Let's go."
The look in the Empress's eyes did not change even though Lin Mengya kept going against her.
In her eyes, Lin Mengya was just a small fry.
Even if the Crown Prince was defeated by Lin Mengya, it was only because of a moment of carelessness.
"Yes, thank you, Your Highness."
Concubine De still looked very angry, and Lin Mengya also sat down in her seat gloomily.
The people around them were tactful and no one came to meddle.
The atmosphere of the banquet was a little awkward. Lin Mengya drank two glasses of wine, and with the excuse of being drunk, she went to sober up with the help of her maidservant.
Lin Mengya and her maidservant had always kept a low profile.
Therefore, no one was alerted.
The moment they walked out of the gate of the Chun 'en Hall, Lin Mengya stopped pretending to be weak.
The master and the maidservant walked to the side hall on the right side of the Chun 'en Hall.
The side hall was not big, and it was very clean.
There were only a few rows of chairs in it, and it was a temporary resting place.
"Master, why did Miss Wang want to meet you?"
Baisu looked around cautiously. After all, this was the palace.
Qinghu and Ye were not allowed to enter the palace easily.
Although Baisu had discussed this with Miss Wang, she was still a little worried.
"I think it's about how to deal with her father when he makes things difficult for Prince Yu. After all, when she saw Madame Wang last night, she was so emotional that she forgot our plan. It's understandable. "
Lin Mengya was not worried. Since Miss Wang had asked her to come here, she must have received some new information.
Sure enough, after a while, someone walked in with a lantern.
The door of the side hall was opened, and a lady in a pomegranate red dress walked in with a lantern in her hand.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Your Highness."
She looked similar to Madam Wang, but she was much younger.
"It's alright, but why did you ask me to meet you?"
Miss Wang's face was a little awkward, but in the end, she sighed softly.
"I didn't expect my father to be so shameless. If it wasn't for the fact that my mother's life was in danger, I wouldn't have stayed in that house. "
Before she could finish her words, Miss Wang began to cry.
Baisu's heart softened at Lin Mengya's miserable look.
"Oh? What's your plan, Lord Wang? "
Lin Mengya asked with concern. Miss Wang took a few steps forward, covering her face and crying.
"My father said that if you don't die, I'll have to marry a lowly slave."
The last sentence suddenly became incomparably sinister.
Miss Wang, who was sad just now, suddenly became ruthless and determined.
Suddenly, she pulled out a silver dagger from her sleeve and stabbed at Lin Mengya, who was unprepared.
"Master! Watch out! "
The silver light hurt Baisu's eyes. She moved too fast.
Even if she kicked Miss Wang away, it wouldn't make a difference.
A touch of blood gradually spread from Lin Mengya's hand.
No one expected that at this critical moment, Lin Mengya would be fearless and grab Miss Wang's dagger with her bare hand.
"Master, are you alright?"
Baisu's heart was in her throat. She was afraid that Lin Mengya would have an accident.
"I'm fine. I just cut my hand."
It was said that the ten fingers were linked to the heart. But the price of holding this sharp dagger was that the wound went deep into the finger bone.
Lin Mengya coldly let go of her hand.
Suddenly, blood flowed out and the dagger, which was stained with blood, fell to the ground.
"Baisu, seal my acupoints."
Baisu nodded immediately and sealed the acupoints on Lin Mengya's arm with two fingers.
However, the dripping blood made her hand look particularly hideous.
The scariest part was her unchanging expression.
It was as if she was not the one who was hurt.
"Why did you do that?"
Baisu kicked Miss Wang so hard that she couldn't get up. She could only lie in the corner and look at Lin Mengya in fear.
I don't want to marry a lowly slave! You're Princess Yu and the daughter of the general. You don't know my pain! "
Blood flowed from the corner of her mouth as she spoke.
Baisu's kick must have hurt her internal organs.
But Lin Mengya didn't feel sorry for her at all.
"You don't care about your mother's life just for yourself?"
Lin Mengya approached Miss Wang step by step. Her cold face and blood-stained hands made her look like a ghost.
"My mother … If my mother knew that her death would bring me glory, she would die a worthy death. Then she died a worthy death … Isn't a mother supposed to sacrifice herself for her child? "
Lin Mengya was so confident that she wanted to sacrifice her mother's life.
Even Lin Mengya felt a chill in her heart.
It was said that even a vicious tiger wouldn't eat its cubs. But Miss Wang was so crazy and selfish that she wouldn't even spare her own mother.
"Should I bring her back to the mansion for interrogation? Master? "
It was unforgivable that she dared to hurt Lin Mengya.
Baisu really wanted to kill this hateful woman with one slap.
"Kill her."
Lin Mengya's cold voice announced Miss Wang's fate.
The figure that was curled up in the corner widened his eyes and shouted with all his might, "Don't worry.
"I have something to say. Someone wants to kill you!"
Baisu's palm stopped in the air.
Lin Mengya looked at Miss Wang and hesitated for a moment.
"Tell me, who wants to kill me?"
Seeing that she had a chance to live, Miss Wang was ready to tell the person behind the scenes.
"That person is … puff …"
Baisu spat out a mouthful of blood in the air. Then she turned over and returned to Lin Mengya's side.
"You … how dare you …"
Miss Wang looked at the woman in front of her in disbelief. Her eyes widened and gradually became filled with hatred.
