In Lin Mengya's eyes, there was a hint of reluctance.
She knew that this day would come, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.
"Okay, but before you go, I want to meet the people who are looking for you. You're my brother. If those people are just using you, no matter who they are, I won't let them take you away. "
Lin Mengya had witnessed the miserable deaths of the five men.
She didn't want and couldn't let Xiaoyu follow the path of those people. Xin Li was a big pervert. In order to maintain his status, Lin Mengya believed that the guy who was neither human nor ghost would not let go of Xiaoyu.
Once they returned to Lieyun Empire, she would no longer be able to protect Xiaoyu, so Lin Mengya would not let go of any possibility that could threaten Xiaoyu's life.
"This …"
Xiaoyu looked at Lin Mengya with some embarrassment. It seemed that this request was a little difficult.
Lin Mengya sighed softly and said in a serious tone, "I'm sorry.
"Those people behind you should know that I won't let you go so easily. Go back and discuss it with them. They might not necessarily disagree. Go. "
Lin Mengya helped Lin Zhongyu tie the belt of his cloak. Looking at the young man who was slightly taller than her, Lin Mengya still felt a little melancholy.
"Okay, I'll go and discuss with them. Sister, I don't want to leave you. "
There was a little expectation on the young man's jade-like face, and a pair of dark eyes seemed to emit a faint glimmer.
He opened his arms and hugged Lin Mengya, buried his head in Lin Mengya's shoulder, and said hesitantly,
"Sister, if you're not happy here, I can take you away. Lieyun … I can also give you the best life in Lieyun Empire! "
Lin Mengya was stunned, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly.
She thought that she had hidden it well enough. Why did Xiaoyu still see through her?
"Actually, I'm not unhappy. Xiaoyu, since the day I was born in the Lin family, my fate has been out of my control. Do you understand? "
Lin Mengya was the legitimate daughter of the Lin family, and now she was Princess Yu. No matter which identity she had, she could not let her temper do whatever she wanted.
"But sister, you're not happy at all! I can tell that Long Tianhao doesn't treat you well at all. He's just using you! "
Xiaoyu hugged Lin Mengya tightly and said stubbornly.
But Lin Mengya just smiled. Speaking of using, wasn't she also using Long Tianhao to protect herself and the Lin family?
The so-called royal family was probably like this.
"Alright, the Winter Solstice Festival is over. It's going to be the New Year soon, and this is the first time you've spent it with your sister. If you want something delicious or fun, I will satisfy you. "
Lin Mengya looked at the young man in front of her. Even at his age, he could only be considered a child. However, he was already carrying a heavy burden on his shoulders.
She had more or less guessed Xiao Yu's identity. It was just that there were some details that had yet to be confirmed.
But no matter what, as long as Xiaoyu stayed in the State of Jin, he would be his younger brother and the adopted son of the Lin family.
This was something that no one could change.
Looking at Xiaoyu walking out of the small courtyard, Lin Mengya felt a little disappointed.
At that time, she just picked up this little guy like a kitten or a puppy. Now, he had grown up to be like this.
Indeed, the world was changeable.
Everything was developing as Lin Mengya had expected.
For some unknown reason, there were no rumors about what had happened to Xin Li in the Capital City.
Later, she deliberately went to the big locust tree. The withered locust tree was still standing in the cold wind. But everything that was horrifying had disappeared without a trace. Not to mention the corpse, not even a drop of blood could be seen.
The imperial guards, the government, and all the big and small forces in the Capital City were strangely consistent. This surprised Lin Mengya. She had thought that there would at least be a moderate storm.
But in the dark, the fight had never stopped.
In the blink of an eye, another half a month had passed. Seeing that it was almost the end of the New Year, Lin Mengya had a lot of things to do.
"Master, this is the ceremonial dress that Prince Yu will wear at the palace banquet. Do you want to make any changes?"
"Master, this is the New Year's gift from the palace. You need to check it and make arrangements."
"Master, the New Year's gifts from the various villages have arrived. What do you want to prepare in return?"
...
Lin Mengya suddenly felt a headache coming on. Why did everything come together during the Spring Festival?
"You can arrange these things. By the way, where is Baishao? Isn't Baishao in charge of these things? "
Early in the morning, Lin Mengya had been forced to stay here since she had breakfast.
"Master, early in the morning, you asked Baishao to prepare the gifts for each prince's mansion."
In the room, only Baizhi was left to serve Lin Mengya. Even Baisu had been asked by Baiji to do the work. The entire Prince Yu's Mansion was bustling with activity. It was as lively as a vegetable market.
The people in charge of each manor had to come to Lin Mengya's room to report about the matters. Or they were here to wait for orders, coming in and out. Lin Mengya's mind was in a mess.
Baizhi covered her mouth and chuckled softly. It was rare to see her master so flustered.
"Naughty girl, why are you still laughing here? Go to the kitchen and see if the ginseng soup for Prince Yu is ready. "
How to describe her relationship with Long Tianhao? Anyway, the two of them had moved into the same house. Long Tianhao lived in the outer room, while Lin Mengya lived in the inner room.
The servants in the mansion thought that the prince and the princess were in harmony. Perhaps, when spring came, she might have a little master.
Lin Mengya didn't want to explain these speculations, and she couldn't. She could only turn a blind eye and pretend that she didn't hear it.
"Master, Prince Yu asked me to help you. You'd better take a rest."
Steward Deng smiled warmly. No matter what, the lady in front of him was the real mistress of Prince Yu's Mansion.
Over the past six months, whether it was the Jiang family's cousin or Princess Ming Yue from the western lands, both of them had disappeared. Only the lady in front of him really held the power of life and death in Prince Yu's Mansion.
"Thank you for your trouble. These thousands of things are really annoying me to death. That lass Baishao doesn't know how to feel sorry for me. She has left all this work to me. "
Of course, Lin Mengya agreed with Steward Deng wholeheartedly.
The Art Courtyard gradually quieted down. Even Jiang Ruqin was sent back to her room. When she came to pay her respects yesterday, she just nodded politely to Lin Mengya when she met her.
It was said that her family had arranged a marriage for her. She would get married after the New Year. Although her husband was not as noble as Prince Yu's Mansion, he was also a first-class son of an aristocratic family in the capital city.
Lin Mengya should know how to be content.
"Miss Baishao is so busy that she can't leave. Thanks to Mistress's good guidance, everything has been properly arranged in such a short period of time. If it were someone else, it would be impossible for her to do so."
Steward Deng was right. In the past six months, Lin Mengya's four maidservants had made the most progress.
Although they were busy now, Lin Mengya usually didn't worry about them. It was evident that these four thoughtful little cotton-padded jackets were extremely capable.
"Well, I don't want to disturb you. It's time for me to go and have a look around. "
In the dungeon, Baili Rui's research was in full swing. Moreover, Madame Wang, whom she had tried to save as a last resort, had woken up safely.
Baili Rui heard that Madame Wang was recovering well, but she kept asking to see her.
As the master, she should go and see Madame Wang.
Although there were people coming and going, there was no outsider at the exit of the dungeon.
The patrolling guards all knew Lin Mengya, Princess Yu. They also knew that the stubborn old man in the depths of the dungeon was willing to treat their injuries because of her.
Therefore, they were even more grateful to Lin Mengya.
There were not many people in the dungeon, but Lin Mengya didn't go to Baili Rui's room. After walking around, she came to an extremely spacious secret room.
Inside, a man was tied up in chains with his arms and legs spread out. Tiny air vents and skylights let in bits of sunlight.
The man squinted, as if he was enjoying the rare warmth of the sun.
"How have you been, Mr. Wuchen?"
Lin Mengya smiled and looked at Baili Wuchen, who had become dirty and haggard.
She only knew that Baili Wuchen was locked up here because he had betrayed Long Tianhao. In fact, she was a little shocked when she heard the news.
After all, Baili Wuchen was one of Long Tianhao's confidants. Moreover, his intellect was indeed outstanding. Lin Mengya couldn't believe that such a person had betrayed Long Tianhao.
Baili Wuchen's eyes wandered and fell on Lin Mengya's face.
The woman in front of him was dressed in a sky blue cloak, and she looked elegant. There was a faint, elegant smile on her beautiful face, but in his eyes, it was no less than a blatant mockery of his situation.
"You win."
His hoarse voice was very hard to hear, like a millstone, emitting a rough texture. Dust covered every ravine on his face. It was as if in a few days, he had become an old man who had completely lost his vitality.
"We have never competed. How can I win?"
