However, Li Ao was not a person who liked to pry into other people's privacy. Although he was curious, that was all.
Instead, he brought up another matter.
"I've heard about the Queen. I believe you didn't do it."
Li Ao's attitude was very firm, which made Lin Mengya feel a little embarrassed.
"Actually, I'm still confused about this matter. The Queen's death really caught me off guard, and now I'm in trouble because of it."
Lin Mengya didn't try to hide anything in front of him.
Li Ao nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "So after thinking for a long time, I think I should tell you what I know."
"Go ahead."
He thought for a moment, and said carefully, "I seem to have seen the Queen meeting her lover a few times … But I was far away at that time, so I didn't see the specific scene. I just intuitively feel that it might be a man. "
Lin Mengya never thought that the Queen's death would have such a scandal.
She paused for a moment, and then said, "Did you see it clearly?"
"I'm sure that it must be the Queen, but I've never seen the man she met."
That was true.
There were not many women in the Divine Hall, and the Queen's age, temperament, and appearance were different, so it was difficult to mistake her.
"This …"
She hesitated.
What should she say? She couldn't mention this to the Emperor, otherwise, for the sake of his dignity, the Emperor would insist that there was no such thing.
It would be even more troublesome.
"Where did you see it, Mr. Li?"
Li Ao replied in a low voice, "In a small garden on the fifth floor. I've always liked peace and quiet, so I accidentally found that small garden."
Later, Lin Mengya asked Li Ao when he saw it, and the latter's answer surprised her even more.
It was the day when the Queen didn't eat dinner.
And it happened to be when it was time for dinner.
This was a little strange. Her subordinates had clearly reported that the Queen had been locked in her room during dinner.
After that, she would go out for a walk for a while.
If the two of them remembered correctly, it meant that the Empress would always go to the garden to see that man when everyone was having dinner.
"Later on, I secretly followed that man, but he was able to shake me off every time. However, I'm sure that he didn't notice me. He was especially cautious in his real form."
This made Lin Mengya feel even more incredulous.
Since he was so familiar with the terrain, it meant that he was someone from the Temple.
And now there was a traitor among them?
In that case, it would be troublesome. He had to inform Long Tianhao as soon as possible so that he could take precautions.
Seeing Lin Mengya frowning, Li Ao could not help but blame himself.
"I'm sorry, I should have investigated this matter thoroughly before telling you."
Lin Mengya shook her head.
"I'm already very grateful that Young Master was able to find such a crucial clue for me. That's right, Young Master Li, I've been thinking about the ancient race for a long time. "
Hearing this, Li Ao revealed a bitter smile.
"Everyone has their own destiny. Life and death are in the hands of the heavens. If the heavens want to annihilate the Li Clan this time, then I have no complaints. "
Seeing that he was pretending to be cool, Lin Mengya could not help but say, "Even if it's the worst case scenario, we have to work hard. I'm thinking now.
(This chapter is not finished, please continue to the next page.)
If the Li Clan and the Jun Clan continue to live in the same place, if someone wants to plot against you, as long as they are familiar with the situation here, they can do it. So I'm thinking, why don't you move out first. "
Hearing this, Li Ao's eyes lit up, then he shook his head.
"Actually, I've thought about what you said, but it's hard to leave our homeland. Even if I can convince the elders in the clan, where can we find a suitable place for us to live? There are thousands of people in our clan who need to eat and drink, and the land that we can't move away from is the foundation of our survival. "
This was true, no matter how much money one had, it was not as safe as land.
However, Lin Mengya had her own ideas.
"If Young Master Li trusts me, I can represent the Gong Clan to invite the Li Clan and the Jun Clan."
Li Ao's eyes widened.
"Miss Gong, what do you mean?"
"Actually, I've discussed this with my family. If the Li Clan and the Jun Clan want to move to the Gong Clan's fief, we will naturally welcome them. "
But Li Ao frowned.
"Master Gong, do you know that it's not easy to get the fief? If the Li Clan or the Jun Clan moves to the Gong Clan, the people in the clan will definitely not agree to submit to the Gong Clan. As the saying goes, two tigers cannot live on the same mountain. This is really unacceptable!"
Seeing Li Ao's anxious look, Lin Mengya couldn't help but smile and said, "Let me explain first."
Then she told Li Ao about her initial idea.
"You've seen the current situation. Soon, some of the current systems in Wei Country will completely collapse. That day will be the day when all the families will fight and the heroes will be divided. Unless one day, there will be a superpower that suppresses all the forces and recombines them, then Wei Country will welcome peace again. "
Her words shocked Li Ao.
"Miss Gong, are you thinking of …"
Lin Mengya shook her head.
"I'm not thinking of it, but I have to do it!"
She had to let the Gong Clan obtain the final victory in this chaotic war.
Otherwise, what awaited them would be even more severe oppression.
She never liked to be a loser and be trampled on. Since this was the case, she could only work hard to fight for success.
Li Ao didn't know what to say.
He knew that the woman in front of him was not an ordinary person, but he didn't expect her to have such great ambitions.
Dominating the entire Wei Country was something he didn't even dare to dream of.
"Miss Gong, I know you're smart, and the Gong Clan is powerful, but this matter is not so easy."
Lin Mengya nodded. She was very clear about this.
Most importantly, she didn't want to be the empress, but she couldn't let this position fall into the hands of others.
Moreover, she didn't want Wei Country to become a fragmented country, with each country ruling their own affairs.
This was because she was very clear that there were many countries on the other side of the sea.
Back then, wasn't the Celestial Empire also woken up from its dream by the cannons of the western powers?
So she wanted to reform Wei Country, and so did I. Only then can we ensure that Wei Country will prosper and the people won't be bullied.
Moreover, she had a premonition that if he solved all the problems, Wei Nation would soon face a population depression.
Without people, people would need to multiply and live.
In this case, a stable and peaceful environment was even more important.
"Of course I know it's not so easy, and I don't want the Gong Clan to dominate. You see, I don't look like I'm made to be an emperor, so I hope to cooperate with everyone."

What he had done with the Four Tai Academy and the Great Chamber of Commerce was a good example.
In such an atmosphere in the academy, the students had gradually realized how important it was to leave their families and integrate into the community.
Outside, they could be the heirs of a large family, or the treasures of a commoner.
But in the academy, they only had one common identity, and that was the students of the Si Tai Academy.
Their every word and action represented the honor of the Si Tai Academy.
Under Lin Mengya's intentional nurturing, these children had gradually understood the importance of cooperation.
So the mark of their families on this generation had gradually lessened.
After a few decades, everyone would no longer be as dependent on their families as they were now.
At the same time, the Chamber of Commerce had connected all the merchants in Wei Country.
Since they were a community of shared interests, they naturally had to share the same fate.
In this way, everyone would be more closely connected.
She did all these things to weaken the role of the family from the most basic two aspects.
She believed that it wouldn't be long before the family would become a spiritual belief, and not a division of administrative districts.
When that time came, the communication within Wei Country would be smoother.
And the strength of their country would grow day by day.
After listening to her preliminary plan, Li Ao felt that he had lived in a muddle for the past 20 years.
From the moment he was born, he had been taught that he needed to contribute to the prosperity of his family.
No one had ever told him that he could fulfill his dreams, that he could fulfill his ambitions.
He was attracted by the world that Lin Mengya described.
If there really was such a country, then he would definitely choose to be a scholar.
But that was ultimately just his imagination. Reality was cruel and cold.
He only thought about it for a moment before forcefully suppressing the fire in his heart.
"Although your idea is good, no one will agree to it. If it's like what you said, then all the families will lose control of their own fiefdoms. They definitely won't do it. "
Lin Mengya's lips curled into a smile.
"But in reality, the small families have to rely on the larger families, and the larger families have to bow down to the larger families.
At the end of the day, it's not that everyone has no scruples, but that they are under the control of a more powerful force than themselves.
But this way, unless it's a friendly family, those who are enemies may not interact with each other for hundreds of years.
No matter what good things the two sides have, they can't see each other. In the long run, everyone's development will become slower and slower.
Because without communication, there will be no improvement. In the end, all the families will lose their vitality. Everyone will guard the things left behind by their ancestors every day and live by the rules. What's the point of living then?
If one day, a force more powerful than us invades, how are we going to defend against it? "
It had to be said that Li Ao had never thought about the problems that she had mentioned.
Lin Mengya could understand this point.
She didn't know the true face of Mount Lu because she was in the mountains.
If she hadn't lived in that civilized place, she wouldn't have thought so much.
Li Ao pursed his lips. After a long time, he said seriously, "Miss Gong's brilliant idea has really opened my eyes. However, I need to discuss it with my family and try my best to convince them. "
Who wouldn't want such a bright and dazzling future?
