Lin Mengya sat on the chair and looked at Zuo Yuanyi with a ferocious expression on her face.
Zuo Qiuyu must have given him special 'preferential treatment' because he always wanted to take advantage of the two ladies with his perverted hands.
He was indeed an expert. Although he had dislocated the third joint on his right hand, there was no sign of external injury. Zuo Yuanyi, on the other hand, almost fainted.
"One, two, three … Eh? Why only three times? This number was not included in our agreement. Oh, I know, you're scolding me, aren't you? "
Lin Mengya deliberately tortured Zuo Yuanyi as she counted.
However, Zuo Yuanyi's face was covered with tears and snot. When Zuo Qiuyu dislocated one of Zuo Yuanyi's knuckles again, a pungent smell of blood spread from Zuo Yuanyi's body.
"It's so disgusting. Forget it. I'll make an exception and let you off this time. Remember, you'll answer my questions. Otherwise, you'll have to continue to enjoy this torturous treatment. Do you understand? "
Zuo Yuanyi hurriedly nodded. As long as he was no longer in pain, he would do anything even if he had to betray his ancestors.
Long Tianyu laughed coldly and knocked the pig trotter out of Zuo Yuanyi's mouth.
"Spare me, Your Highness! Spare me, Your Highness! No matter what you want to ask, I'll tell you! "
Zuo Yuanyi did not dare to resist. The torture must have worn away all his arrogance and pride.
Zuo Qiuyu placed his well-defined hand on the back of Zuo Yuanyi's neck.
Zuo Yuanyi was instantly sweating profusely. He was afraid that these hands would easily break his neck.
"Let me ask you, why did your father send out the invitations? Don't try to play tricks. Prince Shen is not a pushover. Be careful, if he sees through your lies, you'll be in deep trouble! "
Lin Mengya's blatant threat immediately caused great damage to Zuo Yuanyi's fragile little heart.
His vitality was dropping like a waterfall. As long as this devil was satisfied, he would not say a word even if his father's head was cut off for Lin Mengya to kick like a ball, let alone confess.
"How would I dare to lie to you? My father once said that it was to stop you from going to the Pavilion of Herbs. If I find you, I'll think of a way to lock you up in Prince Qing's Mansion. "
Lin Mengya had already guessed it.
"I'm afraid it's not just me. Tell me, who else was stopped by you?"
Zuo Yuanyi broke out in cold sweat. He had no choice but to tell the truth.
"As long as they're from the new emperor's faction, they're all stopped. As for the new emperor's party in Yulong Prefecture, my father found an excuse to imprison them. I'm not asking for their lives. I just told them to release them as soon as the matter in the Pavilion of Herbs is settled. "
This was strange. The new emperor's party outside the residence was blocked.
In the Yulong Prefecture, he was placed under house arrest.
Moreover, this matter had been kept under wraps. Needless to say, Prince Qing must be plotting something against Cousin Chen.
However, imprisoning an official of the imperial court without permission was equivalent to shedding all pretenses with the emperor.
Could it be that Prince Qing was 100% sure that the emperor would not hold him accountable?
Lin Mengya felt that it was not that simple.
"What is your father plotting? Tell me, what does he want to do? "
However, Lin Mengya now had a higher opinion of Zuo Yuanyi.
This guy begged for mercy for a long time, but could not come up with any reason.
Even when Lin Mengya threatened to dislocate the joints in his other hand, he refused to say anything. He only cared about begging for mercy and refused to say anything.
This time, he really did not know.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and felt relieved. This guy was just a good-for-nothing.
If she were Prince Qing, she would not have asked Zuo Yuanyi to handle such a secret.
However, Prince Qing's actions were obviously aimed at Cousin Chen. How could she not be anxious now?
While she was deep in thought, there was a sudden movement outside.
Lin Mengya immediately became alert. Zuo Qiuyu reacted quickly and saw Zuo Yuanyi.
"Your Highness, the Second Young Master of the mansion is here. He said that he has an urgent matter to see you. Is it convenient now?"
Lin Mengya did not expect Zuo Yuanyi's younger brother to come at this time.
Lin Mengya looked at Zuo Yuanyi, who had fainted, and thought for a while. Then, she walked out of the flower hall.
"The Crown Prince is busy now and has no time to meet guests. Let him wait somewhere else. When the Crown Prince is free, he will go and look for him. "
Lin Mengya just opened a corner of the door of the Flower Hall. When the people outside saw that it was the stunning beauty that their master had just brought back, they just smiled meaningfully and then left.
This was a tricky situation. Lin Mengya thought for a while and turned around to discuss with Long Tianhao and Zuo Qiuyu how to escape.
"What are you afraid of? At most, we can sneak out."
Zuo Qiuyu did not think there was anything to be afraid of and said nonchalantly.
After thinking for a while, Long Tianhao said in a low voice,
"No, if we really sneak out, we'll be discovered before we even get out of the city. By then, it will be more justifiable to catch us. "
Long Tianhao and Lin Mengya had the same thought. Moreover, even if they took a detour, they would not make it to the Pavilion of Herbs in time.
"Don't tell me you want to make use of this idiot? Now that someone is here, it will be even more difficult to make him submit. "
Obviously, Zuo Qiuyu did not support this idea.
"Cousin Yu, do you know how Zuo Yuanyi gets along with his brother?"
Lin Mengya must have thought of a good idea and asked meaningfully.
"Well, I've never heard of him having any brothers. Oh yes, I heard that this Second Young Master is actually the adopted son of Prince Qing. He is very capable and an astute person. "
Zuo Qiuyu's words finally helped Lin Mengya grasp the crux of the matter.
This made things easier. A prince who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and an intelligent and capable adopted son. It would be strange if they were on good terms.
"I want to meet this astute second son personally. Don't worry, I will justify myself. As long as you can control Zuo Yuanyi, I will be able to escape unscathed. "
If there was a conflict between the two brothers, she could make use of this ready-made opportunity.
If there was no conflict, would she not create some?
After all, they were all from Prince Qing's family. How could there be any good people among them?
Long Tianhao was still a little worried, but Lin Mengya persisted and they did not have a better idea for the time being.
They could only let Lin Mengya take the risk. They also agreed that if Lin Mengya did not return within ten minutes, Long Tianhao would go out to look for her.
After giving a few instructions, Lin Mengya straightened her clothes and left with Baishao. The moment they stepped out of the drawing room, some sharp-eyed servants came over to fawn on them.
However, when they saw that it was two beauties who came out, and there was no sign of the heir of the crown prince, they could not help but feel puzzled.
"The heir of the crown prince is busy, don't disturb him. If you disturb him, you will have to bear the consequences. "
Lin Mengya's pretty face was full of anger, which immediately convinced the servants who were suspicious of her.
Although eight out of ten women brought back by the heir of the crown prince were weeping, they were still taken in by the heir of the crown prince.
But in the end, they were still taken in by the heir of the crown prince.
Women who had seen the wealth and power of the heir of the crown prince's family would still be tempted.
Now, this one was even putting on the airs of a master.
Although the servants did not like her, they dared not say it out loud.
After all, this was the beloved of the heir of the crown prince. Who would dare to provoke her?
"Where is the second son? The heir of the crown prince has no time to entertain him, so he asked me to go and have a look. Lead the way, lest the heir of the crown prince gets annoyed waiting. "
Lin Mengya deliberately pretended to be impatient.
The servants did not dare to delay and immediately led the way.
Although it was the second son, Lin Mengya knew that her guess was right when she saw the ordinary decoration of the wing room.
Zuo Yuanyi must not have liked this adopted younger brother, so there was not even a servant to serve him tea.
In the wing room, the second son was sitting there. Unlike Zuo Yuanyi, who was greasy and powdered, the second son in the room looked very ordinary.
However, compared to Zuo Yuanyi, he looked more mature.
He was dressed like a son of an ordinary family, but he was not wearing any gold or silver.
"Is this the second son? Unfortunately, the heir of the crown prince is busy with official business and is not available to meet guests. If Second Young Master has something urgent to discuss, please let me know first. "
Lin Mengya led Baishao to keep a distance from the second son.
At this moment, the second son's eyes met hers.
With just one look, Lin Mengya could tell that he was not annoyed.
In those eyes, there was only an ordinary expression. There was not the slightest trace of any other emotions.
Even if there was a look of disdain on his face. However, there wasn't the slightest bit of emotion in those eyes of his.
An expert was indeed different from Zuo Yuanyi.
"Official business? What official business can my elder brother, who spends his days in bed, be busy with? Tell him that there can't be a single mistake in what Father has instructed him to do. "
There was a hint of coldness in his tone.
He did not try to hide it in front of her. The enmity between the two of them must be deep.
"I'll pass on the message. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
It was only a face-to-face meeting, but the information she had obtained was enough.
"Wait."
To her surprise, the second son stopped her.
Lin Mengya's expression did not change, and she looked at him fearlessly.
"Why haven't I seen you in the mansion before? Where are you from? What do you do? "
The second son fixed his eyes on her, and there was a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.
Lin Mengya naturally knew that she was a stranger, and it was easy to arouse suspicion.
He smiled and replied, "Yes.
