Lin Mengya could only see Fanggu's birthplace from the register. She only knew that her surname was Wu and that she entered the palace at the age of six.
At the age of thirteen, she followed her mother and was brought out of the palace by her mother in just three years.
Three years might be a blink of an eye to a person's life.
However, Fanggu had used up her entire life to wait for her mother, who had been in her memory for three years.
Min 'er said that Fanggu would often sit in front of the bed and stare blankly at the plum blossom hairpin.
Perhaps she was reminiscing about the days when she was with her mother in the palace.
Although Fanggu's face was pale, Lin Mengya asked Min 'er to bring her some rouge and applied makeup on her face.
If it were not for the frightening wound on her neck, Fanggu, who had her eyes closed, would look peaceful and quiet as if she was asleep.
"Min 'er, can you do me a favor? Don't tell anyone about Fanggu's death. If anyone asks, just tell them that she has gone on a long journey and will be back in a while. "
Lin Mengya got up and spoke to Fanggu in a low voice.
"Alright."
Min 'er, who was in tears, was surprisingly cooperative. Even Lin Mengya felt that she had let Min 'er down.
"Forget it, why don't you come with us? There are too many people here. You're a girl and without Fanggu, you'll be in trouble. Follow me first. After some time, when things calm down, I'll find you a safe place. Do you have any relatives? I can let you go and seek shelter with them. "
Lin Mengya asked cautiously. This place was no longer safe, although she did not know what Fanggu usually used to control those powerful people.
But this was a gambling house and it was inconvenient for Min 'er to stay here alone.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I won't be a burden to you. If anyone asks, I'll never betray you. "
Min 'er had exceeded everyone's expectations. Min' er had actually seen through their despicable thoughts.
Even Lin Mengya felt a little ashamed.
"If Fanggu could do this to your mother, I can do the same to Fanggu. I know that you're all people who do great things. Fanggu died because she wanted to protect all of you. In any case, I grew up in a gambling den, so I more or less know about these things. Don't worry, I won't betray you. "
The low and hoarse tone was definitely not something that a little girl who was inexperienced in the world could say.
Lin Mengya had to admit that she wanted to take Min 'er away because she didn't want to reveal her secret.
But to be exposed so mercilessly, even she felt her face burning.
"We believe you. We'll take Fanggu's body with us first. You must be very careful. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to the Crown Prince's Mansion with Fanggu's Golden Plum Blossom Hairpin. "
Lin Mengya took the golden hairpin with plum blossom and presented it to Min 'er with both hands.
On the other side, Yu An and Zuo Qiuyu had found a clean quilt and were carefully wrapping Fanggu's body in it.
Min 'er looked at Lin Mengya, her red and swollen eyes lingering on Fanggu's body.
"There's no need for that. Since Fanggu treasures it so much, it must be extremely important to her. I can't take it, Your Highness, although I don't know who killed Fanggu. But please promise me that you will find the culprit who killed Fanggu and avenge her. "
Lin Mengya had to nod when she saw the determination in Min 'er's eyes.
Looking at Min 'er was like looking at her past self.
However, she had killed her enemy with her own hands. Min 'er could only pin her hopes on someone else.
Lin Mengya nodded. Even if it was not for the promise she had made to Min 'er, she would find out who the murderer was.
Min 'er smiled brightly at Lin Mengya's approval. Lin Mengya knew something was wrong and grabbed Min' er's wrist.
But she was one step too late. A sharp dagger was firmly thrust into Min 'er's heart.
"No!"
Lin Mengya cried out in fear. Even Long Tianyu, who was behind her, could not react in time.
He watched as Min 'er, who was begging Lin Mengya to avenge her, fell to the ground.
Lin Mengya, who was holding on to Min 'er's wrist, fell to the ground with her.
"Min 'er, how could you be so silly? Quick, get me the medicine to stop the bleeding. I want to save her! I want to save her! "
But it was too late. The shadow of death had already shrouded Min 'er's young face.
Lin Mengya was a doctor. It was impossible for her not to know that Min'er had stabbed the dagger into her heart.
Even in the modern era where medical science was advanced, it was difficult to save a patient with such an injury.
Moreover, she was in such a situation.
"Don't … don't bother. Your Highness, only a dead person will not betray you … remember, remember what you promised me. "
Min 'er's voice was weak from the excruciating pain.
Lin Mengya covered Min 'er's wound with both hands. No matter how hard she tried to stop Min' er's bleeding, the warm red liquid still soaked her hands.
"I won't forget. I'll avenge Fanggu. Hang in there, I can cure you. I'll definitely cure you! "
However, no matter how good Lin Mengya's medical skills were, Min 'er's life was slowly slipping away.
Min 'er suddenly laughed when she heard that she would avenge Fanggu.
This young life came to an abrupt end with a smile of relief.
Lin Mengya only felt that the body under her hands was gradually becoming colder.
Since they left the Hengyun Casino, Long Tianhao had been holding Lin Mengya in his arms.
Even when they returned to the Crown Prince's Mansion, the lass still maintained the same dull expression.
Zuo Qiuyu and Yu An had already placed Fanggu and Min 'er's corpses in a proper place.
However, Lin Mengya was still staring at a certain direction in the void. Her eyes were not focused at all.
Death was not a strange word to Lin Mengya.
Even she herself had experienced the pain and hopelessness brought about by this word.
However, there were people by her side. Those people whom she did not want to be taken away by death were like bubbles, embracing death in front of her.
Long Tianhao was very worried about Lin Mengya, although she always pretended that she didn't care about anything.
However, she was a very affectionate and righteous girl.
In particular, Fanggu and Min 'er were a group of loyal servants. Not to mention Lin Mengya, even he was a little shocked.
However, what Long Tianhao feared the most was that Lin Mengya would take all the blame for this series of events.
Since the tragic death of Yue Ting, Lin Mengya had a demon in her heart.
She felt that she had brought misfortune to the people around her. Therefore, she had resolutely sent Xiaoyu away and chased Baisu away.
He had seen Lin Mengya's crazy look when Baishao was injured.
However, under the repeated stimulation, the demon in her heart started to play tricks. Once Lin Mengya got into a dead end, she would not be able to walk out of it for the rest of her life.
At this moment, Long Tianhao wished that Lin Mengya was not so smart and capable.
Perhaps if she was a little stupid, her mind would not be so clever. People wouldn't think too much about it.
But now, no one could help her.
No matter what he said, Lin Mengya did not respond. Now, Long Tianhao could only stay by Lin Mengya's side and look at her worriedly.
Contrary to what Long Tianhao had thought, perhaps Fanggu's death had triggered the demon in Lin Mengya.
However, Min 'er's death had suddenly made Lin Mengya come to a sudden realization.
Fanggu had died to protect her, and Min 'er had died to fulfill Fanggu's wish.
All of them had their own choices, but they had all resolutely chosen death.
Lin Mengya had been puzzled by this choice in the beginning, but now, she had gradually come to understand it.
Indeed, she had an undeniable responsibility for the deaths of these people.
However, at the end of the day, it was her incompetence, and it was also the hidden desires in people's hearts that caused all these tragedies to happen.
If she had really sunk deep into self-blame and become a demon … Then, wouldn't the people around her still be hurt?
Power, status, everything that she had once disdained had become a magic weapon to protect her family.
Since that was the case, what was there for her to be restrained about?
If one day, she stood in front of them and no longer needed anyone to protect her, then death would no longer be her nightmare.
Lin Mengya felt that she seemed to be different from before.
However, even she herself could not tell what had changed.
When she returned to reality from the world of consciousness of the Shen Nung system, a cold glimmer flashed across her watery eyes.
"How are you? Are you feeling unwell? "
Long Tianhao's eyes were no longer lifeless and lifeless as he looked at her.
The brilliant vitality once again filled up the depths of her eyes once again. His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally at ease.
However, he was still a little worried that she would not be able to come around in such a short time.
"I'm fine. What about Fanggu and Min 'er's bodies? In my opinion, why don't we find a good place to bury them? It's better for people to be buried in peace. "
Lin Mengya's expression was indifferent, as if she was talking about something unimportant.
Long Tianhao was stunned. This indifferent tone and rational arrangement were indeed Lin Mengya's usual style.
However, Long Tianhao was a little surprised that she could be so calm at this time.
"Why are you looking at me like this? Could it be that I have to cry in order to be considered as doing my best for them? I don't want to. Tears can only bring sorrow to the dead after I've personally buried my enemies. Now, I'm just thinking about how to find the real culprit behind the scenes, so that I won't let them down. "
Lin Mengya's words were very reasonable, and Long Tianhao could not find any abnormality in them.
Perhaps this lass really had an epiphany, and that was why she had solved her inner demons.
