Lin Mengya had her doubts about this as well.
Moreover, with the Huo family's wealth and status, they shouldn't have fallen so quickly even if the Fang family had schemed against them.
Perhaps there were other reasons that they didn't know about.
"Huo Xiao and his father will worry about the Huo family. But the problem that's right in front of us …"
Long Tianhao straightened his body and his eyes were filled with worry.
Lin Mengya held his hand gently. "You're here, aren't you?"
Therefore, no matter what happened, no matter who came, she believed that he would protect the three of them.
Long Tianhao raised the corner of his lips and nodded slightly.
"That's right. Do whatever you want to do."
"Alright, then I'll leave the babies and I to you."
"My pleasure."
He smiled intimately and kissed the corner of her lips. Some things didn't need to be said.
Lin Mengya had already received the news when the unfamiliar carriage appeared at the city gate.
Regarding this visitor, she did not have much information about it.
However, the people who had been following them had mentioned that the two groups of people had joined forces later on.
Some of them had been sent by the Elders, but the identities of the carriage's owner and the masked guards were very mysterious.
Moreover, their people had also noticed some very strange behavior on the way.
However, before they met face to face, they were still in the stage of guessing.
The Zhao mansion was like a group of dragons without a leader.
Old Madam, the troublemaker, wasn't around, so there was naturally no one in charge.
Someone had suggested to ask Jun Rongrong, who had been pretending to be dead, to come out and welcome the guests.
Lin Mengya didn't disturb Aunt Fang, but sent someone to keep an eye on her.
What surprised her even more was that Zhao Xun, who had always looked down on Jun Rongrong, had actually hooked up with her.
Jun Rongrong had now regarded herself as the mistress of the Zhao mansion.
Lin Mengya only sneered inwardly when she heard the news from the Jackdaw Guards.
It seemed that Zhao Xun and Jun Rongrong didn't know that the Zhao mansion was now of no value.
Even if Huo Shujiang woke up, he would probably want to destroy this place even more.
It was destined to be abandoned, so it didn't matter if it was given to them.
However, some people were just too greedy.
Less than half a day after the carriage entered the Zhao mansion, Jun Rongrong sent someone to invite Lin Mengya over.
"I'm not going, and I don't need to care about them."
Towards this, her attitude was very indifferent.
The entire hot spring manor was filled with their people. As long as she didn't say anything, no one would be able to barge in.
Sure enough, the people sent by the Zhao Mansion only lingered outside for a while before returning resentfully with their heads drooped.
The next time, it was Jun Rongrong's turn.
Unfortunately, she was forced to lose face by someone else. Her expression was really ugly.
"Open the door! You guys are really rebelling! This is our Zhao Clan's territory, how can we allow you to behave atrociously? "
She stood at the door, full of energy and confidence.
"Master, do you want me to chase her away?" Cai Ru asked in a low voice.
Lin Mengya shook her head and pretended that he did not exist.
Seeing that there was no movement inside, Jun Rongrong was completely infuriated.
Her face was dark as she took a few steps back.
"You guys, even if you have to smash it, you still have to do it!
Open the door! "
The servants looked at each other, but they did not dare to smash the door.
They had no choice but to knock and beg with a bitter face.
Jun Rongrong was annoyed when she saw their spineless behavior.
"Useless things! Get out of my way! "
This concerned her reputation and lifelong happiness, so she had to be ruthless.
Before the servants left, she pulled out her hairpin and stabbed it into the butt of a horse.
The horse let out a neigh and instantly rushed towards the gate as if it had gone mad.
The servants were all killed, and one of them who was too slow was about to die under the hooves of the horse.
Suddenly, the door opened and the horse ran in recklessly.
As for the servant who was a step slower, his face had already turned pale.
If it wasn't for the fact that someone had pulled him back, he was afraid that the horse's hoof would have smashed his skull into pieces!
"Neigh —"
The sound of a horse being trained could be heard from the courtyard.
The disorderly sound of the horse's hooves gradually calmed down.
It turned out that one of the horse trainers had taken advantage of the chaos to get on the horse, which was why the frightened horse had calmed down.
But the courtyard had been ruined.
Moreover, if they had not opened the door just now, the horse and the servant would have been completely finished.
Unfortunately, Jun Rongrong did not reflect at all. Instead, she sneered and rushed in with her servants.
"You really refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! Give me the prescription, or I'll kick you out of here! "
"Who dares to speak so arrogantly? Since you're here to ask for help, then you should act like you're asking for help. "
Lin Mengya appeared accompanied by Cai Ru.
Although they were both women of similar age, Jun Rongrong, who was dressed in silk and satin, was like a mouse drowning in luxurious clothes. She did not look rich at all.
She had been arrogant just now, but when she saw the master and servant, she felt that she had become shorter.
This feeling made her very dissatisfied.
"What do you mean by asking for help? This is what you should do. Don't forget, without my brother's support, you might not have been able to develop the prescription so quickly. Moreover, the prescription might have been there before, and you just got it for free. "
Lin Mengya was almost amused by her shameless words.
"Alright, since you said so, why don't you get it for free? Cai Ru, let's pack up and leave now. Let's give this place to Miss Jun. Let's see if she can develop the prescription. "
She was straightforward, but Jun Rongrong's expression changed.
She probably knew that she was too anxious, so she could only suppress the anger in her heart and try to ease the atmosphere.
"Look at you, I'm just a little anxious, so my words are not very pleasant to hear. Moreover, we got along quite well before. Don't you know what kind of person I am, Miss Ya? Miss Ya, please be magnanimous and don't be calculative with me. "
"I really don't know what kind of person you are, Miss Jun."
She looked at Jun Rongrong, who obviously wanted to fall out with her, but had to hold back her grievance. She cut to the chase.
"Let's not just talk about friendship. Tell me, what do you want me to do with the prescription?"
Of course it was in exchange for Zhao Xun's promise!
But Jun Rongrong would never tell her this.
Jun Rongrong rolled her eyes and played her little tricks. She pretended to be worried.
"I'm doing this for your own good. Moreover, if this prescription is in your hands, it can only save one city's people. But if you give it to me, I will make this prescription a blessing for the aboriginals. At that time, everyone will be grateful to you.
For your kindness … "
"Oh? But I'm not interested in that kind of reputation. "
"You! Why do you have to do this? You have to think about the long term in everything. If other people know that this prescription is in your hands, I'm afraid they won't be as polite as I am. "
Jun Rongrong seemed to think that what she said made sense, and the smile on her face grew wider.
But she was showing off in front of an expert.
How could Lin Mengya not see through her little thoughts?
She raised her eyebrows and deliberately put on an unconcerned attitude.
"So what if they know? The prescription is in my hands. Whoever dares to be rude to me can forget about getting it for the rest of their lives. No matter how capable they are, they can't open my brain to see my prescription, right? "
Jun Rongrong was infuriated by her stubborn attitude.
Jun Rongrong snorted coldly. "Miss Ya, don't look down on those people. As long as they want it, no one can keep it a secret."
"Oh?" Lin Mengya thought of something and continued to say calmly, "It seems that you are very familiar with their methods. But who are they?"
"They …"
Jun Rongrong almost spilled the beans, but she quickly reacted.
"Don't pry so much. Anyway, if you give me this prescription today, I can guarantee your safety. "
"What if I don't?"
"Then, don't blame me for not considering our past relationship."
Jun Rongrong's patience seemed to have reached its limit.
Her face showed the same malice as her mother's.
"Do you know who came to the residence today?"
"I'm not interested."
Jun Rongrong gritted her teeth at Lin Mengya's indifferent attitude. At this moment, she wanted to tear Lin Mengya into pieces with her own hands.
"Let me tell you, they are from the secret meeting! Ha, now you know the seriousness of the matter, right? "
Jun Rongrong spat at her harshly.
Unfortunately, the threat she was relying on was not much of a threat to Lin Mengya.
"Secret meeting? Didn't they stop doing this many years ago? Miss Jun, I know that you are naive. Even if you want to make a contribution, don't be deceived by others. "
Lin Mengya denied it lightly. But this time, Jun Rongrong looked at her with pity and contempt in her eyes.
"You are from a small family, so naturally you don't know what is going on here."
"Indeed, the secret meeting does not care about other matters. But when it concerns the life and death of the aboriginals, the secret meeting will definitely not ignore it."
"Also, don't think that my brother will continue to side with you because of your aunt."
"In front of the secret meeting, he can only bow his head and bow down!"
Jun Rongrong seemed to think that she was in an invincible position. She proudly explained the rules of the aboriginals.
Lin Mengya's expression changed slightly, but her brain did not stop working.
The secret meeting was also known as the secret meeting of the aboriginals' elders.
It was the elders' meeting of the elders. It was said that those who could enter the secret meeting not only had to be from an elder's family, but most importantly, they had to make great contributions to the aboriginals to be qualified to enter.
But in the past ten years, even though the elders' meeting had gradually appeared in the eyes of the aboriginals, the secret meeting was still a secret that only existed in the past.
No one knew how long it had existed, and no one knew who the members were.
But once the secret meeting was announced, it represented the highest will of the aboriginals.
Even the elders of the elders' meeting had to listen to it without any objections.
No wonder Jun Rongrong was so arrogant.
