"Has anyone visited Teacher recently?"
The Blood Jade Ginseng was precious, but why would Teacher take such a risk? This person must have something to do with Teacher.
Otherwise, Teacher would not cultivate such a dangerous thing, even if he put a knife on his neck.
Lin Mengya already had a suspect in mind, who could make Teacher do such a thing.
However, after thinking for a while, she felt that these people had no reason to want the Blood Jade Ginseng.
"No one came. Mr. Baili has a strange temper. Except for people who bring him food every day, no one can get in touch with him. Are you suspecting that someone in the mansion wants to use the Blood Jade Ginseng to do something? "
The expression on Long Tianhao's face became a little serious.
To be honest, Baili Rui was very capable, not to mention him. There were also many people in the Jianghu who were interested in his superb poison skills.
However, this old man was very stubborn. At that time, Baili Wuchen deceived him to come here. Baili Rui could not be persuaded by both the carrot and the stick. This showed that he was extremely stubborn.
Now, he cultivated the Blood Jade Ginseng like crazy. If he did not do it voluntarily, the person behind him must have some tricks.
Lin Mengya spent the first night in Prince Yu's Mansion immersed in her thoughts.
Lin Mengya could not think of a good idea for the Blood Jade Ginseng.
But there was one thing that made her feel quite relieved.
Maybe it was because of the Shen Nung system in her head. Therefore, the hallucinogenic effect of the Blood Jade Ginseng did not work on her at all.
Maybe it was because her central nervous system was protected by the Shen Nung system. But obviously, Teacher's matter could not be delayed.
She was used to getting up early. Since she came to this world, although it was hard for her. But her life was much more regular.
After Lin Mengya put on a new dress, she sat in the main room and drank tea.
Yesterday, she had sent someone to invite Shangguan Hui. Unexpectedly, Shangguan Hui came the next day. It seemed that there was something urgent.
Her head was slightly swollen.
She could not find a suitable way to solve the problem of Teacher's matter in a short time.
If she acted rashly, Teacher would be hurt.
Moreover, although Teacher was affected by the Blood Jade Ginseng. However, the habits that had been honed over the years had not changed at all.
If she wanted to secretly drug him, she was afraid that the teacher would see through it. At that time, things might become even more troublesome.
Her teacher treated her extremely well, so she had to find a suitable way to resolve this matter.
After breakfast, Miss Shangguan's sedan stopped at the back door of Prince Yu's Mansion.
Although they had formed an alliance long ago, the Shangguan family was the Empress's maiden family after all. If it was seen by others, it might cause a lot of trouble.
In the pavilion, Lin Mengya placed a cup of tea and a few plates of fresh fruits and vegetables. He was already prepared to receive an esteemed guest.
Baiji had already gone to the back door to greet them. In order to hide from others, Shangguan Hui had to put on simple cloth clothes and a bamboo hat with a long veil to cover her face.
Baishao had purposely sent away all the servants in the mansion.
Therefore, apart from Lin Mengya and a few people, no one knew that Miss Shangguan, who had recently become famous in the capital city, had come to her courtyard.
"Sister, come quickly. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Lin Mengya greeted her with a sweet smile on her face.
After closing the courtyard door, Shangguan Hui also took off her bamboo hat, and there was a smile on her pink face. However, it was a little forced.
After the two of them greeted each other, Lin Mengya personally led her into the pavilion.
The richly ornamented beams and painted rafters around and the famous tea and fruits on the table in front of her did not attract Shangguan Hui's attention.
The delicate girl sat on a stone chair and took the tea served by Baiji. She just lowered her eyes and sighed faintly.
"Alas, you're finally out of the palace. If you didn't come out, I don't know who to complain to. "
Lin Mengya sat opposite her and raised her eyes to look at Shangguan Hui.
"How can you say that? Sister Shangguan is so intelligent. How can there be anything that can trouble you?"
In terms of scheming, Shangguan Hui was better than Lin Mengya.
After all, she could survive in the Shangguan family since she was a child. She could still have a place in the Shangguan family. The fact that she came from a branch of the Shangguan family was very clear.
If Lin Mengya was half as smart as Shangguan Hui in the past, she would not have almost died in the bridal sedan chair.
"In the family, if there is internal strife, I can still handle it. But this time, it was Her Majesty who personally asked my father to choose a marriage for me. Sister, you should know my situation. This time, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do. "
Indeed, what Shangguan Hui said made a lot of sense.
Since the Empress entered the palace, the Shangguan family had been extremely powerful. Therefore, it was not surprising that the Empress could control the Shangguan family alone.
But why did the Empress choose Shangguan Hui's marriage to manipulate?
Could it be that she had sensed something?
"Tell me slowly. I think you should have a way to escape, right? At the worst, we can find a Taoist priest and tell him that you have an unlucky year and are not suitable for marriage. Why are you so nervous? "
Lin Mengya's idea was a common one. Although feudal superstition was not good, sometimes it could really save a life.
Whether it was a commoner's marriage or a royal marriage, they all had to pay attention to the horoscope.
If the Taoist priest said that you have an unlucky year and whoever you marry will be unlucky, under normal circumstances, this marriage could not be made.
If there was a bold man who did not believe in superstition, he would naturally marry her. Of course, most of them were commoners. If there was a little power in the family, they would be very concerned about this problem.
Looking at Shangguan Hui's expression, Lin Mengya wondered if she would marry into a commoner's family. It did not seem to be the case.
"Of course I have thought of this idea, but the Empress seems to have made up her mind. My horoscope has been taken to the masters in the palace for a long time. They all said that my star is moving this year and it is suitable for me to get married. "
Shangguan Hui showed a bitter face and did not know what to do.
"Oh? Which family's childe is he that the Empress values so much? "
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows. The Empress had a lot of things to deal with recently. It seemed that she wanted something big since she could spare time to take care of Shangguan Hui's marriage.
Shangguan Hui glanced at Lin Mengya and said hesitantly,
"He is not a childe, but the new emperor of the Nation of Lintian. The Empress wants to send me to a marriage alliance! "
A marriage alliance? Lin Mengya was almost amused. She did not expect that the Empress wanted to make a marriage alliance.
The Nation of Lintian? Lin Mengya thought for a while and remembered that just one year before she got married. The Emperor of the Nation of Lintian suddenly abdicated in favor of his son and became his retired emperor.
At that time, the Crown Prince of the Nation of Lintian did not allow it. The father and the son refused for a long time. Finally, the Crown Prince ascended the throne and became the new emperor.
It was said that the new emperor of the Nation of Lintian had been in charge of state affairs when he was the Crown Prince. He ruled the country with benevolence and filial piety.
The Jin State bordered the Nation of Lintian. There were some disputes in the past few years, but in recent years, it was peaceful and stable.
Could it be that the Empress wanted to make the two countries more stable through the relationship of in-laws?
It was a good thing, but it was not in line with the Empress's usual style.
In short, Lin Mengya felt that things that could be related to the Empress must not be so simple.
"With your identity, you can definitely become the concubine of the new emperor of the Nation of Lintian. It's a little difficult to do. Sister Shangguan, you have to find out why the Empress is so eager to ask you to make peace with the Empress. "
Although Shangguan Hui was eager, she was also a meticulous person. Soon, she found out some details.
Now, the only person who could help her was Lin Mengya, so of course, she would not hide it.
"I heard that it's because the new emperor of the Nation of Lintian has a good impression of the women of Dajin. In addition, the surrounding countries are ready to make trouble. I think the Empress probably wants to make an ally. "
This was true. Lin Mengya gently knocked on the table with her fingers. She digested the news she had just received in her mind.
Speaking of it, making peace with the Empress was indeed one of the convenient ways to bring the two countries closer.
However, Dajin had a strong army and strong horses, but it was not enough to fight for hegemony in the world. But at home, it was impregnable.
On the contrary, the surrounding countries had long lost the strength to compete with Dajin after years of disputes.
In her opinion, it was true to draw the Empress over, but she still needed to think carefully about what she wanted to do.
"Sister, you really have to help me this time. I'd rather … I'd rather be the young general's maidservant than go to the Nation of Lintian to be the princess. Help me, help me, please? "
Shangguan Hui was already in tears. She looked so miserable that people could not help feeling pity for her.
Lin Mengya knew that Shangguan Hui really liked her brother, otherwise, she would not help Shangguan Hui sincerely.
"I think the peace marriage can't be carried out in a short time. The most important thing is that the Emperor is still ill recently. If we really want to send you to make peace with the Empress, we need the Emperor's consent. So, don't worry. Try to cooperate with the Empress and others, and don't let them find anything unusual. I'll help you, and I won't let you make peace with the Empress. "
After getting Lin Mengya's promise, Shangguan Hui suddenly smiled through tears.
Although she was still a little worried, she still felt that as long as Lin Mengya was with her, she seemed to have a backbone.
"Alright, I'll have to thank you for this. Also, this is my gift to the young general. Just tell him that you gave it to him, but don't tell him that I gave it to him. "
As she spoke, she took out a palm-sized cloth bag from her arms. It could be seen that she was very careful, and wrapped it in several layers of handkerchiefs.
