"No, maybe we still have a chance to survive. But we need someone's help. "
When both of them were at their wits' end, Long Tianhao suddenly thought of someone.
"You mean Grand Secretary Qin?"
Lin Mengya was really good. She knew what Long Tianhao was thinking about.
However, there was more or less some doubt on her pretty little face.
Grand Secretary Qin was indeed a senior official of three dynasties, but he was just a civil official who couldn't disobey the Empress's order. It seemed useless to beg him.
Long Tianhao explained unhurriedly, "That's right.
"No, although Grand Secretary Qin is just an ordinary civil official now, don't forget that he used to be the Right Prime Minister. If he hadn't been unwell this year, he wouldn't have given up his responsibility. Although the current Right Prime Minister is Grand Secretary Qin's sworn enemy, most of those old officials are Grand Secretary Qin's students. "
Lin Mengya was suddenly enlightened by Long Tianhao's words. Yes, why didn't she think of it?
Moreover, her father had returned to the capital city. As long as her father and Grand Secretary Qin worked together, at least half of the officials would support them.
These people were different from those newly promoted by the Empress. They were already deeply rooted.
"Your Highness really has a good plan. This is a good idea. I'll write a letter. No, I'll invite Grand Secretary Qin in person. "
Lin Mengya suddenly remembered that after solving Qin Mo's problem, she had invited Lord Qin to her house to teach the prince etiquette.
But she had been busy with trivial things and forgot about it. Wasn't this the best opportunity?
On the one hand, she could let the prince know more about the Winter Solstice Worship. On the other hand, she could persuade Lord Qin to help her enter the palace to see how the Emperor was doing. It was really killing two birds with one stone.
"It's not urgent. I heard you cough outside. You'd better take care of yourself these days. It's late. You should go to bed early. I'm going back to my yard. "
She thought that Long Tianhao would try to find a way to stay as before.
But this time, he walked out of Lin Mengya's room neatly.
"Okay, good night, Your Highness."
Lin Mengya restrained herself and felt a little disappointed. What was going on? They were not a proper couple, so why did she have some faint expectations?
She touched her burning little face. It must be because the temperature in the room was too high, so she started to have all kinds of boring fantasies.
Yes, that must be it!
Snow that was as heavy as goose feathers quickly covered the winding paths.
Coming out of Lin Mengya's room, Long Tianhao's face was as cold as ice, without any warmth.
He walked with large strides on the snowy ground. The anger in his heart disturbed his heart.
With his excellent Qing Gong, he actually left deep footprints in the snow. Steward Deng and Lin Kui, who were behind her, could only look at each other and smile bitterly.
It seemed that the prince was really angry!
The white snow made the dark night cold. The anger in Long Tianhao's heart increased.
His original intention was not to involve Lin Mengya in this dispute. But when he thought of Baili Wuchen, Jiang Sheng, and the others, the anger in his heart was endless.
"Your Highness, why are you so angry? Although Mr. Wuchen's attitude was a little too much, it was a good idea, wasn't it? "
Lin Kui, who had restrained himself for a long time, couldn't help but persuade him.
"Do you really think Baili Wuchen did it for my good?"
Only Lin Kui and Steward Deng could be counted as his trusted subordinates.
Moreover, the two of them had voted against it during the discussion just now. However, Long Tianhao didn't know what tricks Baili Wuchen had used to persuade everyone except them. This was what annoyed Long Tianhao the most.
"Alas, in fact, I don't agree with it. We've all seen what Princess Yu has done since she entered the mansion. Going to the palace to treat the emperor is a matter of life and death. But for the current situation, it is indeed the best way. "
Just now, there was news from the palace that the emperor's illness had worsened again. And different from the previous few times, the internal hospital was at a loss.
Even the Imperial Household Department had prepared the emperor's birthday gift according to the usual practice.
But he couldn't believe that his father, who had always been in good health, suddenly became so serious.
He walked to a corner of the garden and sat down, regardless of the cold stone.
Just now, he asked people to think of a way to sneak into the palace to inquire about the news. But he didn't expect that Baili Wuchen proposed that Lin Mengya go to the palace to treat the emperor.
If the emperor could be cured, everyone would be happy, but the palace was the territory of the empress and the crown prince. His mother was in his mansion. Except for the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, when he had to pay respects to the empress, he was not allowed to go in and out at will.
Although Lin Mengya was clever and brave, the palace was not like other places. There were hidden dangers everywhere.
Moreover, Lin Mengya had been a thorn in the empress's side because of her many strange tricks.
Going to the palace was a matter of life and death.
But he didn't expect that Baili Wuchen would lead his men to threaten him with death in the study. If he didn't obey, he would hurt his men. In the future, who would be willing to work for him?
Moreover, Baili Wuchen was even more insatiable. He wanted Lin Mengya to go to the palace willingly. He even proposed to invite Mr. Qin.
He couldn't help but sneer. It seemed that Baili Wuchen had forgotten that Long Tianhao was the real master of this force.
She actually dared to make decisions for him, and even threatened him at every turn. He couldn't let this man live.
"Your Highness, do you want to get rid of Master Wuchen?"
Steward Deng finally understood the prince's intention. For so many years, he was just a steward of the mansion, but in fact, no one knew that he was the punisher who punished the traitors in Long Tianhao's force for Long Tianhao.
There were at least a hundred people who had died at his hands, and most of them were people with extraordinary martial arts and abilities.
"Not now. If we get rid of him, it will cause an uproar. Go and tell Night to secretly pay attention to whether there are any talents that can be used. It's time for someone to take over Baili Wuchen's position. "
Everyone thought that Baili Wuchen was the smartest person in this organization.
However, they didn't know that Long Tianyu was as smart as Baili Wuchen.
He didn't show it because he wanted to give others a chance.
On the surface, it seemed that he had no other choice but to indulge Baili Wuchen. But since the day Baili Wuchen played tricks behind his back, he had thought of a way to deal with it.
But this time, he had to take advantage of Lin Mengya's trust in him and take advantage of her.
He hoped that the girl would never know his difficulties.
It had been snowing all night. With the help of the nerve-soothing incense, Lin Mengya had a good night's sleep.
In a few days, it would be the Winter Solstice. Fortunately, she had a month's worth of preparation time, so she was almost fully prepared.
"Master, the Imperial Household Department has sent you the ceremonial robes you and Prince Yu are going to wear at the memorial ceremony. Please take a look."
Just after breakfast, the gatekeeper hurriedly came to report the arrival of Mengmeng.
Lin Mengya nodded. Fortunately, she had Baiji, who specialized in this, by her side, which saved her a lot of trouble.
Because she was a new daughter-in-law, and it was the first time for her to attend the memorial ceremony as Princess Yu, the ceremonial robes were newly made.
The sky-blue dress with a flower pattern and a red jacket with phoenixes piercing peonies gave her a solemn beauty.
Lin Mengya touched the silky smooth material with her white hands. It was the work of the best embroiderers in the palace. It was absolutely extraordinary.
But Lin Mengya just looked at it and asked someone to hand it to Baiji.
"Master, don't you like it?"
Baizhi and Baishao had never seen such beautiful embroidery. They couldn't take their eyes off it.
"I like it. Who doesn't like beautiful clothes? But I'll lose my head if I wear it. So, I don't dare to wear it. "
Lin Mengya smiled slightly, but what she said shocked the two girls.
Even Lin Zhongyu and Qinghu craned their heads and looked at her in confusion. "It can't be. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the robes."
"Master, you're right. As you expected, the phoenix on the robes is indeed a seven-colored phoenix. But the purple color is rarely used. Only the eyes are embellished. It's not a big deal. But the flower is not a peony, but a peony. "
Baiji smiled and dispelled everyone's doubts.
According to the practice of this dynasty, only the Empress could wear a seven-colored phoenix. The phoenix piercing the peony was the Empress's exclusive style. The Imperial Noble Consort could wear a six-colored phoenix, but not a peony.
When Su Yan 'an became the Princess Yu, she could only use a six-colored phoenix, and it had to be a peony.
So, as long as she wore this robe and showed up at the memorial ceremony, it would be considered disrespectful.
Moreover, the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the palace was the place where the robes for the members of the royal family were prepared. Lin Mengya dared to bet that the robes on Princess Yu's robes were the patterns of the six-colored phoenix and the peony.
In other words, her robes had been secretly replaced.
"God, it's too cruel. Should I be beheaded for not wearing the right robes? "
Baiji stuck out her tongue and shrank her neck. She said with lingering fear.
Lin Mengya shook her head and looked at Baizhi. She said kindly,
"Beheaded? It's the same as treason. It's a crime punishable by the extermination of the whole family. "
"Clang!" Poor Baizhi was once again frightened by Lin Mengya's untimely calmness and she fell to the ground.
