"Elder Mu, do you know what this treasure is?" She asked.
Elder Mu shook his head.
"I don't know the details, but the so-called destiny of the ancient people is just empty talk. I think they are eyeing the Divine Temple's status and resources. After all, the aboriginals are very isolated now, and some important resources are getting scarce. That's why they chose to take the risk out of desperation. "
This was more in line with reality.
The so-called fatalism was illusory. The most important thing was for the people in the present to live well.
Hearing this, Lin Mengya had an idea.
"If the aboriginals only want resources, we can work together."
Elder Mu asked, "What do you mean?"
"I don't know if you are aware of the big chamber of commerce established by the Gong family."
Elder Mu paused for a moment, then said excitedly, "Is it the big chamber of commerce that is known as' the business of a hundred generations, benefiting the people '?"
Which idiot came up with this slogan?
Although she was a little shy, she still nodded.
"That's right. The purpose of the big chamber of commerce is to connect the economy of the entire Wei Country. This way, no matter where they are or what they do, they can get the resources they need and sell their products anytime and anywhere. If the aboriginals can do business with the big chamber of commerce, the problem of resources can be solved. "
Elder Mu nodded repeatedly as he listened.
"That's right. Although the aboriginals don't have much arable land, we are rich in all kinds of mineral resources. If we can work with the big chamber of commerce, we won't have to worry about resources. "
Mineral resources!
Lin Mengya's attitude became warmer.
The existing mineral resources in the Wei Country were all guarded by the various families. Even if she offered a high price, the other party would think of ways to rip her off, not to mention buying them cheaply.
If they could work with the aboriginals and form a friendly relationship, it would solve their urgent problems.
"But you have seen the current situation. I'm afraid that the aboriginals' Elders have long wanted to replace the Divine Temple. I'm afraid that this won't work. "
"This is not difficult to solve. To put it bluntly, the reason why the Elders agreed to Elder Qi's plan was that they were desperate. If Madam and Temple Master can trust me, I am willing to help you persuade them! "
This was exactly what Lin Mengya wanted.
But she pretended to exchange glances with Long Tianhao.
The latter understood what she meant and immediately said sincerely to Elder Mu, "I'll leave this matter to you, Elder Mu."
"Don't worry, Palace Master. Although I, Old Mu, do not have a high position in the Elders Guild, after so many years, I still have a few old friends that I can trust. When I return this time, I will immediately convey your intentions to them. There are many people in the Elders Council, but not everyone has this kind of ambition. "
His words made Lin Mengya overjoyed.
It seemed that Elder Mu also had his own means.
It was just that he didn't want to break the camaraderie between them.
"Alright, I'll go back and draft a letter for Elder Mu to pass on!"
With that, Lin Mengya was about to leave excitedly.
Fortunately, Long Tianhao was still rational. He grabbed her hand and pulled her back.
"There's no rush. The problem in front of us hasn't been solved yet."
"What problem?"
He glanced inside and saw the group of people who were already trembling in fear.
Only then did she realize that there were still a few scourges that hadn't been eliminated.
He immediately cleared his throat.
"You guys?
What do you mean by that? "
After Elder Qi fell, Elder Mu changed sides. When they came here, they had completely offended the three of them by relying on Elder Qi's influence.
At this moment, they almost burst into tears.
"We, we were also deceived by Elder Qi!"
"Yes, he instigated us. Temple Master, Madam, we were forced to do this. Please be magnanimous and let us go! "
Although they were admitting their mistakes now, Lin Mengya couldn't let them go after all.
From Elder Qi's attitude, she had already guessed the attitude of the Elders Guild towards the Divine Temple.
Moreover, until now, there were still some things that she hadn't figured out. Of course, she wouldn't let them go easily.
"Elder Mu, I think your people can stay in the Divine Temple for a few days. After you return safely, I'll ask someone to send them back. What do you think? "
Since they had decided to cooperate, they couldn't kill them.
Moreover, they had already crippled Elder Qi, which could be considered as a show of strength.
In this way, Elder Mu would be able to explain himself when he returned.
"Alright, then we'll do as Madam says. I'll go down the mountain in a few days and convey your good intentions to the Elders Guild. "
"That's great."
Hearing this, those people almost burst into tears.
"Elder Mu, on account of the fact that we're from the same clan, you can't just leave us to die!"
However, Elder Mu sighed.
Last night, when they forcibly broke in, saved that disciple, and scalded Jiang Yingshuang to death, did they ever think of the so-called kinship?
"Don't worry, Temple Master and Madam are not bloodthirsty people. As long as you don't learn from Elder Qi's domineering ways, you'll be safe and sound. "
Now that things had come to this, they could only obey.
Lin Mengya asked someone to take them away, but before leaving, she specially asked about the whereabouts of that disciple.
However, the rest of them were Elder Qi's puppets.
They only knew that Elder Qi had let that disciple go, and that he went down the mountain overnight.
When Long Tianhao heard this, he immediately sent people to chase after him.
But they all knew that the chances of catching him were slim.
In the end, a good opportunity to dig out the secret was ruined by Elder Qi.
After a busy night, with the help of Long Tianhao, she finally drafted the letter.
After handing the letter to Elder Mu, she finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Elder Mu was afraid that things would change if he delayed, so he left Elder Mao to take care of the rest of the people, and left quickly with Elder Chang and a few disciples.
In the morning light, she and Long Tianhao bid farewell to Elder Mu.
She hoped that everything would go well for Elder Mu.
It was still early, so Long Tianhao forced her to go back to her room.
But she couldn't fall asleep at the moment, so she had to stay with him and whisper to him.
"Don't you feel that the relationship between the aboriginals and the Divine Temple is a little strange?"
Even though Elder Qi had the pass of the old Temple Master, his contempt and disdain for the Divine Temple were a little strange.
Logically speaking, the aboriginals and the Divine Temple did not interfere with each other, and neither was more noble than the other.
Why did Elder Qi and his people use such a stupid method to cause a dispute?
"Master has hidden a lot of things from us. Maybe we can ask him face to face in a while."
Long Tianhao's eyes were filled with deep doubts.
She lay on his chest and casually complained, "Now we are trapped here. If we don't solve the problem of the Queen, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to move a step forward."
Unexpectedly, Long Tianhao pinched her little hand and gently bit it in his mouth.
"You don't believe in your husband's ability?"
Her fingers were itching, and she wanted to withdraw her hand, but she couldn't do anything.
"It's not that I don't believe you, but this time, we were really set up by someone. I get angry every time I think about it. It was the Queen who came to us, how could she … "
Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind.
Seeing that she suddenly stopped talking, Long Tianhao casually asked, "Why don't you continue?"
"Yu, I know the purpose of the Queen's visit this time!"
"Oh? Tell me about it. "
"She came to court death!"
Hearing this, Long Tianhao slightly narrowed his eyes.
Then, Lin Mengya told him one by one the clues she had guessed.
"We've never understood why that old nanny would make a move against Houzun, and why there would be rumors. Assuming that everything was arranged by the Queen in advance, she knew when she was going to die, so she could arrange people to spread the news in advance. "
Long Tianhao put forward a different opinion on this point.
"Besides the Queen, the murderer who wanted to kill her could also do it."
"No!" She said seriously, "You and I both know the Queen's character. She could accompany the Emperor through so many trials and tribulations, so her foresight and state of mind are outstanding. If the person who planned this is the old nanny, then it is impossible for the Queen to not notice it before. The only person who can arrange her death is herself. "
Long Tianhao also fell into deep thought.
"Perhaps, she had insight into these people's plans in advance, and then pretended to cooperate?"
"Yes, that's it."
But at the same time, he raised a new question.
"Then what is the purpose of the Queen's doing this? Could it be that she was willing to let her death become a tool for others to use to seize the position of the Empress?
This was indeed puzzling.
However, the news that came after daybreak made the husband and wife come to a sudden realization.
"My Lord, Madam, there is a report from Dragon City. The Emperor was placed under house arrest by his illegitimate son, and was forced to pass the throne to that illegitimate son. Now, that person is calling on all the aristocratic families to attack the Holy Temple under the banner of 'supporting the orthodox'! "
"What?"
Lin Mengya was extremely surprised.
Long Tianhao frowned and called them in.
"Tell me clearly."
"My Lord, the illegitimate son of the self-proclaimed Emperor has secretly contacted many families that were expelled from the Holy Temple. They said that the Holy Temple is a malignant tumor, an evil sect that preys on the people. So, they want to eliminate the Holy Temple for the people. "
Long Tianhao's eyes were cold. "Good timing! Looks like the punishment I gave them before wasn't enough to impress them. "
Lin Mengya's expression became more and more strange.
It was not until Long Tianhao issued a series of orders for them to gather the troops and be ready for battle that he noticed the expression on Madam's face.
"Don't be afraid, I won't let these mobs cause any trouble to us."
But Lin Mengya just shook her head and sighed softly.
"Now I finally understand why the Exalted One had to give up his life."
Long Tianhao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?"
"It's to take revenge on the Emperor, and maybe the Holy Temple."
She smiled bitterly and shook her head.
The Queen was indeed a smart woman, and once a smart woman took revenge, it would be really big trouble.
