"Why don't we leave them here first? When we arrive at the Nation of Lintian, we'll find a place to settle them down. What do you think? "
Long Tianhao's cold expression softened a lot when he heard Lin Mengya's words.
After thinking for a while, he finally nodded. However, he didn't even look at the sobbing woman.
"Okay, since my elder brother has agreed, you can follow me for the time being. Hongyu, you and your sister can sit in our carriage. "
Hongyu looked at Yuan Lin gratefully. If it weren't for her, this Childe Yuan Mei might really kill Sumei, who was pestering him.
Sumei smiled through her tears and kept thanking the two Childes Yuan.
However, what she was most afraid of was that this girl had some ideas that she shouldn't have.
Alas, she hoped that her little sister was just on a whim.
The carriage, which was not big in the first place, was stuffed with three more people. Except for Xiu, who was more popular, Hongyu and Sumei could only shrink in the corner.
Lin Mengya didn't like Sumei's weak and pestering look.
However, for Hongyu's sake, she couldn't lose her temper.
As soon as the carriage left Square Town, Lin Mengya got out of the carriage on the pretext of getting some fresh air and found a horse to ride.
"You don't have to put on such a pitiful look. Even if Big Brother Yuan likes this, others won't like it. Sister Hongyu, right? Take care of your sister, otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless. "
A'xiu said faintly with an innocent smile on her cute little face.
"Miss Xiu, in fact, I'm just … just scared."
Sumei smiled awkwardly, and a few drops of tears appeared in her watery eyes.
She looked so pitiful and her body was curled up into a ball. It seemed that Xiu had bullied her.
"Scared? If you're scared, why don't you pull on others' legs? Why do you have to pull on Brother Yuan's legs? Well, even if you're scared, we'll reach the border of the Nation of Lintian soon. You and your sister can live a good life there. Don't worry, no one will know what happened to your sister. What do you think about this? "
A'xiu said with a grin, but her gaze became even sharper.
"No! Since Young Master Yuan said that he could take me in, then I am his person. Besides, she's not my sister. She's just an unclean woman! If I live with her, in case I become that kind of woman, I should — "
"Slap!" Xiu gave Sumei a slap on the face without mercy.
The smile on his face disappeared in an instant. His gaze was like a sharp dagger, piercing straight into Sumei's heart.
"Don't forget what you did when we were locked up together! Now you're saying that she's an unclean woman. If it weren't for her, who knows what kind of brothel you would have been sold to! "
Sumei stared blankly at Xiu. Her lips trembled but she didn't dare to say anything.
A'xiu looked at the two-faced woman with disdain. There were some things that she didn't want to say so clearly. It was also because Hongyu was caught in the middle, which made things difficult for her.
"If you don't want me to reveal those things, you'd better know your place."
After saying that, A'xiu turned her head to look out of the window.
Baishao and Hongyu didn't know what had happened between them.
However, she always felt that Sumei was not as simple as she looked.
Lin Mengya rode the horse leisurely, and Long Tianhao and Qiu Yu followed side by side on both sides of her.
The three of them were strangely silent, and no one was willing to speak first to break this awkward situation.
However, Long Tianhao and Qiu Yu's eyes secretly fell on Lin Mengya. Occasionally, when their eyes met, they couldn't help but stare at each other.
"I want to tell you something."
Lin Mengya, who calmed down from her thoughts, thought for a while and decided to remind Long Tianhao and Qiu Yu.
"What?"
The two of them answered at the same time, showing an unusual tacit understanding.
However, after realizing that they were in sync with each other, they still glared at each other childishly.
"Someone has been watching me. Last night, I met the owner of Huichun House. I thought I could hide it from him, but I didn't expect that he had already known my true identity. "
Long Tianhao and Qiu Yu's expressions froze for a moment.
Both of them were deeply involved in the vortex of the fight for the imperial power. Lin Mengya's words made them smell a crisis.
"Is it the Crown Prince's people?"
After hesitating for a moment, Qiu Yu asked in a low voice, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
"No, the Crown Prince is not so capable. Mengya, have you found anything? "
When it came to business, Long Tianhao and Qiu Yu stopped bickering.
Although the Crown Prince was a tricky problem, Long Tianhao was very clear about the strength of the mother and son.
If the Crown Prince could reach so far, the mother and son would not have taken advantage of his father's illness to do these shameful things.
"Maybe it has something to do with White Dragon and Black Tiger. I think they are not as simple as a human trafficking organization. Apart from other things, there is a hidden small courtyard in Huichun House with carved beams and painted rafters, which is definitely not affordable for ordinary people. Even in the Capital City, it is very rare. What's more, I heard from the people inside that there are more such courtyards. "
The gentle spring breeze blew gently on Lin Mengya's cheeks, and the hot feeling that followed her like a shadow dissipated a lot.
Qiu Yu and Long Tianhao were also immersed in their own thoughts. Like Lin Mengya, they also had their own doubts.
However, after thinking for a long time, they made up their minds to protect Lin Mengya at all times before returning to the Capital City.
"Forget it, let's not think too much. At least they don't want to kill me. I just need to be careful. I think they set me up because they have some concerns. Otherwise, they would have killed their way here to catch me. "
Lin Mengya was indeed Lin Mengya, although the situation was not good for her. But at least now she could find a favorable situation for herself.
Long Tianhao nodded. In fact, he had the same idea as Lin Mengya.
They were about to arrive at the Nation of Lintian. His and the Lin Family's power might be of some use in Jin State.
But when they arrived at another country, his and the Lin Family's identity was a little sensitive, and they might not be able to help.
"As long as we cross the natural barrier, we won't be in too much danger."
Qiu Yu, who seemed to be a little timid along the way, had some inexplicable confidence at this time.
Lin Mengya tilted her head and looked at him with some obvious doubts in her eyes.
It was strange. When this guy was in the Capital City, even the director of the Court of Imperial Physicians did not dare to offend him.
Why did he seem to be more confident when they arrived at the Nation of Lintian?
"Hey, don't think about asking. Everything is a secret. You will understand when the time comes. "
Humph, he was keeping her guessing again.
Lin Mengya did not bother to ask him. Anyway, Qiu Yu and Long Tianhao were the same. If they did not want to say something, even if a knife was put to their necks, they would not say a word.
The three of them chatted for a while, and the caravan had been traveling for more than half a day.
The Nation of Lintian was located in the south, surrounded by the sea on three sides. The climate was much more humid than that of Dajin.
Therefore, Lin Mengya felt that she had been walking from the beginning of spring to the end of spring.
Although the two countries did not have a close relationship, there was no city gate at the border. Instead, there was a common market where merchants from the two countries mingled. If one wanted to go in and out, he only needed to find the officials of the two countries at the entrance of the common market.
The residents here sang the song "Living Together" and were already of the same mind. There was no difference between them.
"If there were no wars, it would be a blessing for the people if all the countries were harmonious like this."
Sitting on the horse, Lin Mengya could not help but sigh.
She was born in a family of generals. Although she had never been on the battlefield, from a young age, all her father's colleagues and deputy generals talked about was tragic war.
Perhaps she could not feel the cruelty in their words. However, there were many uncles who had come to the Lin Family, but they might never come back after a certain battle.
Her father once took her to attend the funeral of an uncle of a deputy general.
The whole family was crying their hearts out. Although she was still a fool at that time, she was no longer willing to accompany her father to attend the funeral.
If there were no wars between the countries, perhaps those uncles could still be with their wives and children.
Unfortunately, as long as there was ambition in the world, such barbaric plundering and cruel wars would never stop.
"Maybe it will happen one day, but now, such a peaceful situation will not last long."
Qiu Yu sighed regretfully, but then he shut his mouth.
Lin Mengya, who did not know much about government affairs, looked at him in confusion.
However, the other party only smiled at him, and did not explain anything.
She could not help but roll her eyes at Qiu Yu. This kind of person was the most annoying. He always said half of what he said and left the other half unsaid.
Master Guo was an old man in the common market. With his help, he gave some benefits to the customs officials of the two countries. Soon, the caravan passed through the common market and arrived at the border of the Nation of Lintian.
Looking back, it was still early spring in Dajin. But dozens of miles away in the Nation of Lintian, it was green everywhere.
"Not far ahead, there will be a forest of apricot trees. At this time of the year, they look like powdered snow and are very beautiful. "
For some reason, Qiu Yu's eyebrows were tinged with joy.
There was also an unusual joy in his eyes. He did not look like a guest, but a returnee.
Lin Mengya seemed to have guessed something, but she just shook her head with a smile and did not expose him.
