"Uh …"
Lin Mengya could not hold it in any longer. She gritted her teeth and forced herself to endure it.
"Should I stop so that you can calm down first?"
Zuo Qiuyu was a little worried. The ointment was only warm to the touch.
He did not expect that under the influence of the alcohol, it would immediately bring great pain to Lin Mengya.
Her little face was already pale and covered with cold sweat. Zuo Qiuyu could not bear to continue using the ointment.
"No … I'm fine … just continue."
Lin Mengya gritted her teeth and endured it. Although the ointment was extremely magical, she could not feel anything other than pain.
No, she had to endure it. Long Tianyu was still waiting for her.
"Alright, I'll stop anytime if you feel that you can't take it anymore."
Seeing that Lin Mengya was so determined, Zuo Qiuyu could only continue to massage Lin Mengya slowly with his palm.
The burning sensation was almost challenging the bottom line of Lin Mengya's endurance.
However, Long Tianyu's crazed and painful cries gave her a lot of courage.
Lin Mengya's body was limp on the small bed. At this moment, she was already panting heavily, as if she had just been fished out of the water. Her whole body was drenched in sweat.
"Alright, it's almost done."
Elder Chang had said that once the ointment had completely seeped into the skin, it would be considered complete.
The bright red ointment gradually turned pink. In the end, there were still traces of pink on her delicate arm because of his massage.
The ointment was gradually absorbed by her skin.
However, Lin Mengya's suffering had just begun.
"Ah …"
A pain that was more intense than before came from her right arm.
If she had not seen with her own eyes that her arm was as good as new, she would not have believed it. At this moment, she even thought that her right arm had been roasted into charcoal.
"Mengya, hang in there! You must hang in there! "
Looking at Lin Mengya screaming and writhing in pain, Zuo Qiuyu's heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Elder Chang had said that as the injury was alleviated, the pain would lessen as well.
However, Lin Mengya's injury would require her to endure the burning pain for at least half a month.
"I can do it! I can definitely do it! Ah! Cousin, gag my mouth! Please! "
The pain had drained Lin Mengya's little strength.
At this moment, she was exhaling more than she was inhaling.
Her wet black hair stuck to her snow-white forehead. She looked even scarier than Long Tianhao.
"Cousin, bear with it."
Although Zuo Qiuyu was reluctant to do so, he found a clean piece of cloth and stuffed it into her mouth.
The voices inside had gradually subsided.
Lin Mengya must not want Long Tianhao to hear her cry out in pain.
She gritted her teeth and looked at her cousin who had almost fainted with heartache. Long Tianhao, if he dared to betray Lin Mengya in the future, he, no, the whole Nation of Lintian would not let him off!
In the midst of his dizziness, only the pain coming from his right arm was incomparably clear.
But because of the Shen Nung system, she still managed to maintain her last shred of consciousness.
However, she could not even move the tip of her finger, which was a simple task.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
Yu An, who had just heaved a sigh of relief, came out of the inner room. He immediately saw the princess lying on the bed in a daze and her breathing was almost inaudible.
"Shh, don't alarm anyone. Just do what you need to do. Don't talk about what you saw today. "
Zuo Qiuyu quietly stayed by Lin Mengya's side with a somewhat complicated expression on his face.
He had always thought that this lass would be like his Imperial Brother, a person who was shrewd to the bone.
Little did he expect that compared to being crazy about love, they were both crazier than the other.
Looking at Lin Mengya's current state, he could not help but recall his brother from five years ago.
However …
He lowered his head and gently brushed away the stray hair on Lin Mengya's forehead.
He hoped that this lass would have a happy ending.
After some time, Lin Mengya gradually woke up from her dizziness.
At this moment, she was dressed in dry clothes. Moreover, she was lying on an unfamiliar bed.
She thought about it and realized that Zuo Qiuyu had carried her here.
She pinched her eyebrows. The pain was too unbearable.
"You're awake, Your Highness. Let me help you wash your face. "
Lin Mengya heard a gentle voice. She looked up and saw a pretty face that she had never seen before.
However, on second thought, she remembered that this seemed to be the maid of the Crown Prince's Mansion.
She must have changed out of her clothes.
Lin Mengya smiled weakly. She had really troubled her.
"Thank you."
The maid, who was washing the towel, suddenly paused and smiled shyly.
It seemed that she did not expect the princess to be so polite.
"It's my honor to serve you, Your Highness. Oh yes, Prince Shen said that you can go to the study to look for him when you wake up. "
The maid said eagerly. She must have never seen such a polite master before.
"Well, thank you."
Lin Mengya took the towel and wiped the sweat off her face.
She tried to move her right arm, but she still could not move it.
However, there were some subtle differences. She could not tell what exactly it felt like.
But she was sure of one thing.
Her pain had not been in vain.
At this moment, the sky was filled with the sunset glow. She did not expect that the day would pass just like that.
In the study, Zuo Qiuyu was giving Yu An some instructions.
Ling Ye, on the other hand, was like a statue as he stood at the entrance.
It was no wonder that the other two people ignored him. Given Ling Ye's temper, no one would be able to get a word out of him except Long Tianyu and Zuo Qiuyu.
Of course, Qinghu was an exception.
"Your Highness."
Ling Ye immediately greeted Lin Mengya respectfully when he saw her.
The other two people looked at Lin Mengya, who was walking in slowly from the door, with a shocked expression on their faces.
"So he can talk. I thought he was mute."
Zuo Qiuyu said impatiently. Just now, this guy was standing there like a lamppost.
No matter how politely he spoke, Ling Ye acted as if he could not see him.
"Don't mind him. This is Ling Ye's temper. Oh yes, what are you talking about? "
Lin Mengya entered the room and sat down on a chair.
At this moment, Ling Ye, who was acting like a statue just now, was naturally standing behind Lin Mengya.
However, what made them even more curious was that Ling Ye's face was extremely similar to Long Tianyu's.
Could it be that this loyal secret guard was also a mistake made by the emperor of Jin State when he was young?
"They just look alike. Also, keep this matter to yourselves. No one is allowed to speak of it to anyone else!"
Lin Mengya glanced at them and immediately knew why they were staring at Ling Ye's face.
However, this was also one of Long Tianyu's secrets.
The two of them looked at each other and decided not to say anything. No one would know what Lin Mengya did not allow them to say.
"Oh yes, do you know about the extermination of the entire Zhu Family?"
The topic of conversation was finally on the right track. Zuo Qiuyu said with a straight face.
Lin Mengya nodded. Rather than saying that she knew about it, it would be more accurate to say that she had already expected it.
Asking a tiger for its skin meant that there was a risk of being eaten by the tiger. In this regard, the Zhu Family did not expect this to happen so quickly.
"Ling Ye, have you managed to save Zhu Qiyun and the rest?"
Ling Ye, who had remained silent all this while, spoke up respectfully.
"I've managed to save them. Zhu Qiyun, Zhu Jiajing, and Zhu Qiyun's youngest daughter, Zhu Xiang 'er, survived. I personally sealed their acupoints and locked them up in the wardrobe. I made sure that they could clearly see how their family members were massacred. "
Zuo Qiuyu and Yu An felt a chill run down their spines with just a few words.
What a ruthless method. They could only watch helplessly as their entire family was massacred. This … this was indeed a heart-wrenching strategy.
"Where are they now? How are they? "
Lin Mengya asked casually as if she did not care.
"They've been locked up in the woodshed and are waiting for your orders."
Ling Ye, like Lin Mengya, remained unmoved.
Zuo Qiuyu and Yu An could not help but smile bitterly as they looked at these two fellows.
Although they had been through thick and thin, at the end of the day, these two fellows were much more ruthless than him.
"There's no hurry. Lock them up for a few days. But don't let them die. "
After Lin Mengya gave her instructions, Ling Ye went to carry out her orders.
Zuo Qiuyu watched as Ling Ye walked away before he lowered his voice to discuss this matter with Lin Mengya.
"Why did you bring Zhu Qiyun back? Although you've saved them, they might not appreciate it. You'd better think this through. Don't tell me you want them to bite back at you again? "
Lin Mengya glanced at Zuo Qiuyu with a faint smile and smiled nonchalantly.
"I have no intention of cooperating with them. I'll find a way to make them spit out everything. After that, I'll chase these stray dogs out of here. "
From the beginning to the end, Lin Mengya had no intention of making use of Zhu Qiyun.
This was because in her eyes, they were already dead.
At that time, once they stepped out of the Crown Prince's Mansion, their fate would have nothing to do with her.
However, she was slightly better off than those people. At the very least, she could spare the lives of Zhu Qiyun and the others for the time being.
"In my opinion, isn't it better to make use of them to turn the tables and find out who the mastermind is? Aren't you just wasting your energy by doing this? "
Zuo Qiuyu did not quite agree with Lin Mengya's view. He even vaguely felt that Lin Mengya seemed to be different from before.
