Zuo Qiuchen couldn't help being stunned. After a while, he couldn't help laughing dryly.
Lin Mengya's eyes lit up when she saw his expression as if he had been seen through.
Her eldest cousin was not an ordinary person. The internal strife in the Pavilion of Herbs was only a matter among the upper nobles of the Nation of Lintian.
How could a few maids know so much about it?
It was all because Zuo Qiuchen had instructed them to use this method to let her know Zuo Qiuchen's situation.
Moreover, Zuo Qiuyu had long known what kind of person she was.
Since the two brothers had treated her so well, she would definitely return the favor.
"I've told you that this method wouldn't work. Yu insisted on doing it. It seems that I was right. The most outstanding bloodline of the Lin and Zuo families is really an outstanding person. "
Zuo Qiuchen put on a relaxed expression. Even so, for the first time, Lin Mengya felt that Zuo Qiuchen finally regarded her as an equal.
Not just a little sister.
"Zuo Qiuyu knows my temper. That's why he did this, right? Eldest cousin, what do you want me to do? To help you find the music score for the green stringed instrument, or to let me inherit the position of the Chief Elder? "
Under the moonlight, Lin Mengya's expression was also gentle and warm. She couldn't see any anger or other emotions on her face.
Looking from afar, the two cousins seemed to be chatting about everything under the sun.
Unexpectedly, under such a harmonious scene, the content of their conversation was related to the big secret of overturning the country.
"If I let you inherit the position of the Chief Elder now, it will undoubtedly push you into a pit of fire. If it's possible, I hope you can lend me the music score for the green stringed instrument for a while. "
Although he sounded like he was negotiating, Lin Mengya could smell a hint of conspiracy in his words.
Lin Mengya smiled meaningfully and gently knocked her head with her left hand.
"Is the music score for the green stringed instrument really ruined …"
Zuo Qiuchen smiled indifferently and imitated Lin Mengya to look at the bright moon in the sky.
"If you can help me achieve my wish, the business of the Nation of Lintian will be monopolized by your people. What do you think?"
His indifferent voice carried a hint of coaxing.
A trace of doubt flashed across Lin Mengya's heart.
Had her identity as the Hall Master of Three Wonders Hall been exposed? However, when he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong.
Even Long Tianhao, who had many informants in the Capital City, could not do this.
Not to mention Cousin Chen, the emperor of a foreign country.
"It's useless, cousin. I don't live here. Even if you give me the monopoly, I won't be able to use it."
His calm eyes did not reveal even the slightest bit of weakness.
Lin Mengya turned around and looked at Zuo Qiuchen with a smile. They were as cunning as little foxes, testing each other's trump cards.
"You're definitely not interested in power. So, the only thing I can give you is wealth. Although your Wangye's power is monstrous and he is a top-notch figure, you can't compare to him. But, you have to be considerate of your family, don't you? "
He tried to persuade Lin Mengya in a harmless way. His words showed that he was thinking about Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya lowered her eyes and chuckled.
"Cousin, you're really ambitious. Okay, I can help you find the music score for the green stringed instrument. But, I have a request. I want to take over the Pavilion of Herbs. Of course, I won't touch the salt and iron ore. "
The cunningness hidden deep in their blood made the two of them dance like tango, advancing and retreating. As they advanced and retreated, they gradually figured out each other's intentions.
"Okay, but I'm afraid it's not that easy to find the music score for the green stringed instrument. What do you think of a time limit of three months? "
Three months? Wasn't her eldest cousin a little too eager?
Lin Mengya tilted her head and seemed to think for a while. Then she slowly stretched out a finger.
"Let's set the time limit of one year. If my right arm doesn't recover, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to find the music score for the green stringed instrument, right?"
Zuo Qiuchen immediately understood Lin Mengya's intention. He shook his head with a smile and said in a low voice,
"Cousin Mengya, you're so thoughtful to set the time limit of one year. Thank you, cousin, for helping me. "
They saluted each other comically, and the two of them smiled at each other.
There were some things that could only be understood and not conveyed in words.
"I still have something to do, so I can't chat with you here. We'll set off in a few days to return to the old capital to look for the people in the Pavilion of Herbs to treat your injury. "
Lin Mengya nodded and called for a maidservant. She leaned on the maidservant and slowly went back to her room.
Zuo Qiuchen, who was standing in the dark, blinked his eyes. He revealed an inexplicable smile and walked out of the courtyard of Prince Shen's Mansion.
After all, her body was a little weak. She only walked a few steps from the courtyard to the bed, but she already felt a little weak.
Perhaps it was because she had used up too much energy during the day.
Baishao had already made the bed according to her preferences.
After helping Lin Mengya change into her inner clothes and lie down, Baishao also held the quilt and insisted on sleeping on the floor in Lin Mengya's room.
"Why do you have to do this? There are rooms in the prince's mansion. How can you sleep well here? "
There was only one candle in the room.
Lin Mengya tilted her head and looked at Baishao, who was lying under her bed.
"No, Master, it's not convenient for you now. If you're thirsty at night, there's no one to serve you. I'm just here to serve you. Of course I can't leave you. "
Baishao didn't care at all. Anyway, there were plenty of quilts in the room.
Moreover, the floor in the room was made of cotton wood. It was more comfortable than the bed of a poor family when you stepped on it.
She carried the expectations of her other sisters. She was already very sad when her master was injured.
If she didn't serve her master well, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself.
Lin Mengya tried to persuade her, but this girl was stubborn and refused to leave her side.
Helpless, Lin Mengya could only force her to lay the woolen cushion on the soft bed. Then, the two of them reluctantly reached a consensus.
"Baishao, what do you think of the Nation of Lintian?"
Lin Mengya was lying on the bed with her eyes slightly closed. She seemed to be chatting casually.
"Not bad. Compared with Dajin, the girls here seem to be prettier. Oh yes, Master, on my way here, I heard people say that there are many good things here that Dajin doesn't have. But no matter where it is, it's still not as good as home. "
This was the first time she had grown up and traveled such a long way. The further away she was from home, the more she felt the warmth and preciousness of home.
Now, she couldn't wait to fly back to Dajin. They would fly back to their peaceful little nest and live with their sisters.
"Yes, of course it's like that. But this place can also be considered as half of my hometown. Baishao, if I'm going to stay here, will you stay with me? "
Baishao didn't understand why her master suddenly said this.
The first thought that came to her mind was that since her master was the princess of Dajin, she would not stay in the Nation of Lintian.
But then she thought that her master was now the princess of the Nation of Lintian.
Moreover, Prince Shen and the emperor of the Nation of Lintian were really good to her master. Moreover, this place could be considered as her master's hometown. If her master stayed here, she would definitely follow him.
"Of course, I'll be wherever you are. But I hope to bring all the people in our courtyard here. "
Baishao's words made Lin Mengya open her eyes slowly.
In fact, even though she and Long Tianhao knew and appreciated each other, there was always a shadow in her heart.
She had already understood some things in Dajin.
Although the Crown Prince was born in the palace, he was narrow-minded. A man who could not tolerate others would not be successful even if he was a man.
Moreover, he was the emperor of a country.
Even if Long Tianhao didn't say it, he wouldn't fight for it. But in the end, he would still be involved in the struggle for power.
With Long Tianhao's ability, even if he couldn't become the emperor, he would become an important minister in the imperial court.
If it had been at that time, would she still be by his side and assist him in everything like she was now?
Lin Mengya didn't have the confidence to do so.
Moreover, the most important thing was that she felt uneasy.
Long Tianhao had never said that he loved her, not even the word "like".
It was ridiculous that even when she was injured and unconscious, Long Tianhao didn't care about her at all.
After she woke up, Long Tianhao was very gentle and considerate to her.
But women were always like small animals. Once they fell in love, they always needed affirmation and a promise.
Even so, this promise was useless. But women would be silly enough to believe it.
Although she could deal with those in power, she was still an ignorant novice when it came to love.
"Alas …"
Maybe she was too greedy and wanted too much.
"Master, are you worried about the injury on your arm? Today, Imperial Physician Qiu, no, Prince Shen said that he would take you to his master to see him in a few days. Don't worry, Prince Shen's medical skills are so excellent, his master must be even better. "
Baishao comforted Lin Mengya, but Lin Mengya was not worried about this problem.
Since she had the music score for the green stringed instrument, the injury on her right shoulder could be solved last night.
But the prescription in the music score for the green stringed instrument, especially this kind of prescription, could cure terminal diseases. She was sure that there were only a few words about it in any medical book.
From the Tranquil Lotus to the Prancing Dragon Grass, and then to her own prescription.
If she used it too often, the fact that she had the music score for the green stringed instrument would be exposed sooner or later.
At that time, it would only bring her endless trouble.
In fact, those people on the Immortal Road were not sure whether she had the music score for the green stringed instrument.
Otherwise, they could just catch someone she cared about and ask her to exchange for it.
