Those people had sent Zheng Rongrong to deliver the things, which was like sending a lamb into a tiger's mouth.
By then, even if they didn't get the secret treasures, they could catch Zheng Rongrong, and Old Master Zheng would have to submit.
Therefore, the best way now was to let Lin Mengya go on her behalf.
She knew that what Lin Mengya said was right, but how could Zheng Rongrong be at ease?
Just when she was about to say something, she was interrupted by Xiu, who was beside her.
When she came to the outer room and saw Yu, who was ready to go, she immediately smiled.
With this layer of "protection", she didn't have to be afraid at all.
"Keep this with you."
Long Tianhao took out a jade bracelet, which looked no different from ordinary jade bracelets.
However, she could tell at a glance that this thing should be the modified stone jade.
He obediently took it and tied it around his waist.
Although she knew that he would be behind her to protect her, she could still see that he was nervous for her every time.
She patted her waist and said with a smile, "It's okay now. Don't worry."
Long Tianhao didn't dare to relax, but he really couldn't stop her. He could only put on a sullen face and secretly be angry with himself.
"I'll be behind you to protect you. Remember, no matter what happens, your safety is the most important."
She agreed obediently. Her heart was clear as a mirror that she knew exactly what this person was doing.
When she just walked to the door, she suddenly turned back and hugged him who had been behind her.
"It's because I know you're behind me that I have the courage to go forward."
She raised her small face and bewitched him with a smile.
Although that face was not hers, her bright eyes were crystal clear, as bright as the Milky Way.
Her sweet words made him unable to be angry at all.
"Okay."
He touched the tip of her nose. If she liked him, he wouldn't be afraid even if he overturned the world.
She let go of his hand reluctantly and tidied up her clothes.
When she opened the door again, she was the sad, weak and helpless eldest daughter of the Zheng family.
Inside the slightly opened door, there was no one.
The note only said that he had to bring some things to the Sanli Pavilion outside the city.
But because the city gate closed early, she had to ask someone to bring the carriage to Sanli Pavilion first.
Although it was called the Three Li Pavilion, it was just a small pavilion with a wooden frame for people to walk around.
She sat in the carriage and estimated that it was about time, so she sent someone back to the city gate to wait.
In the wilderness, she seemed more and more lonely.
He lowered his head, looking very uneasy.
But in fact, the situation within a radius of half a mile was completely under her control.
This time, Yu only brought a few of his subordinates.
They were lying in ambush in the forest not far away. Regardless of position or distance, they would be able to rush to her side at the first moment.
As for the other side, it was not to be underestimated.
She roughly counted and found that there were eight people she could sense.
They did not know if there were any reinforcements in the distance.
However, she was certain that Old Master Zheng was not one of them.
It seemed that this group of people had no intention of letting him go tonight.
Fortunately, she was here, otherwise the father and daughter of the Zheng family would have fallen into the hands of evil people.
The moon was in the middle of the sky, and the cold moonlight made the surrounding blurry shadows.
She stood up and kept looking at both sides of the road, as if she was a little anxious.
She heard some messy footsteps coming from behind her.
Lin Mengya pretended not to notice it and looked in the other direction.
It was not until the shabby pavilion was instantly surrounded by people that she opened her eyes wide like a frightened wild rabbit and stuck close to a square pillar of the pavilion.
"Who are you? Where is my father? "
Her voice was slightly trembling, which was slightly different from usual.
But it fell into the ears of others, and there was no flaw in it.
Just by looking at her timid and weak look, one could tell that she must be the person he was looking for.
"Don't be anxious. If you want to see your useless father, you have to give me something in exchange. Where is it? Did you bring it? "
Lin Mengya seemed to be frightened. She hastily untied the small cloth bag on her shoulder.
"It's here. Take it. I beg you, don't hurt my father!"
"That old thing really gave it to you! Humph! I've been respectful to him all these years, but it turns out that he didn't treat me as one of his own! "
The fire of jealousy was burning, and the tone of his voice changed, revealing a ghastly chill.
Lin Mengya could naturally tell that this person was the eldest master of the Zheng family.
"This is the secret treasure of the Zheng family, and it can only be passed on to the next master of the Zheng family. Even if you take it away, it will be useless."
"It was originally mine!"
Zheng Luxi shouted uncontrollably. He did not care about his disguise and pulled off the black mask on his face.
Under the moonlight, his face, which could be considered handsome, had long been twisted like a devil's.
Lin Mengya quietly took a small step back. From this angle, she could completely hide in the shadows, so that people could not see what was different about the person in front of them.
"How could it be you? Zheng Luxi, my father has treated you well. Why did you do this? "
She pretended to be indignant and questioned him.
But Zheng Luxi just snatched the cloth bag from her hand, hurriedly opened it, and finally saw the bronze mirror.
Suddenly, a sick and crazy smile broke out on his face.
"I finally got you! I knew that you would be mine sooner or later! "
He touched the bronze mirror almost obsessively.
He turned a deaf ear to Lin Mengya's questioning.
"Since you have brought it to me, I will grant you a favor. Someone, take her away and lock her up with her father, who is not sensible! "
"Yes."
"Zheng Luxi, you can't do this! You promised me that as long as I brought it here, you would let my father go! You bastard, you didn't keep your word! "
Lin Mengya angrily accused him, while Zheng Luxi glanced at her disdainfully.
"When did I promise you? And from now on, I have the final say in the Zheng family! "
As she pretended to struggle, she also reminded the other party not to take action.
Since Zheng Luxi planned to lock her up with Master Zheng, she might as well beat him at his own game and find the hiding place first.
Soon, Lin Mengya was brought to a small carriage without windows.
She was roughly locked inside, and when the door was closed, it was pitch-black inside.
Lin Mengya did not move, but just stuck to the wall of the carriage.
The carriage continued to move away from the city, but after deliberately making a detour, it returned to a place not far from Sanli Pavilion.
The door was opened, and before she could react, she was pulled out of the carriage again.
Those people's movements were very heavy, and even she felt a little tired. If it was Zheng Rongrong, who had not fully recovered, she would have suffered a greater crime.
She was pushed into a small yard, which looked like an ordinary farmhouse.
There was a pigsty built with stones in the yard, which gave off a foul smell.
"My dear uncle, I, your nephew, have brought the person you miss the most. Now that your family is reunited, don't be too grateful to me. "
Zheng Luxi said to the pigsty in disgust, and there came the sound of pigs being startled.
A pair of dirty hands struggled to stand up, holding on to the wall.
It had only been a day, but the dignified First Master of the Zheng family she knew had been tortured to the point where he no longer looked human.
At this moment, he stared angrily at the man who was worse than a beast, and his heart was filled with remorse.
If he had not led the wolf into the house, how would his daughter have been humiliated so badly?
"Zheng Luxi, do you have a conscience? Rongrong is innocent. If you have a grudge, come at me! "
"Innocent? Humph! If I were not smart, I would have been fooled by you and your daughter. You said that you would help me inherit the family business in the future. But it turns out that you have already given the secret treasure to Zheng Rongrong. You want to use me as a shield, so that your daughter can inherit the family business! "
The more Zheng Luxi spoke, the angrier he became. He grabbed the horsewhip beside him and forcefully threw it at the people in the pigsty.
"Stop! If you dare to hit my father again, I will make sure that you will never be the head of the family for the rest of your life! "
Lin Mengya ran up to Old Master Zheng and looked at Zheng Luxi coldly.
Zheng Congen, who was standing behind her, was full of doubts.
The appearance and the voice indeed sounded like his daughter, but why did he feel that the woman in front of him was not Rongrong?
"The secret treasure is in my hands, and so are you. The whole Zheng family is under my control!"
"But you haven't gotten the Gong family, have you?"
Her words made the two men's expressions change.
Zheng Luxi's face darkened, while Zheng Congen's face was full of shock.
Rongrong should not know about that, and no one in the family would have told her.
Could it be that this person was not Rongrong?
Lin Mengya fearlessly looked at Zheng Luxi.
It seemed that her guess was right. Compared to the Zheng family, the ambitious second branch of the Zheng family had long set their eyes on the Gong family.
She sneered at these people for overestimating themselves. It was thanks to Old Master Zheng that the Zheng family could have a chance of survival.
Otherwise, with these few pieces of garlic, sooner or later, they would ruin the family property of their ancestors.
"Do you know about this?"
Zheng Luxi's expression was gloomy. It seemed that she had grasped his weak point.
"I've heard my father mention it once. Although the secret treasure is related to the Gong Family, if you think that the Gong Family will marry their Patriarch to you because of this, you're being too whimsical."
She deliberately put on a look of disdain for Zheng Luxi, and he did not disappoint her.
"What do you mean?"
"It's very simple. I'll tell you the secret, and you let me and my father go. We promise to stay far away from you and never see you again. What do you think? "
Zheng Luxi stared at her, full of doubts.
Was this woman who calmly negotiated with him really that useless Zheng Rongrong?
