Lin Mengya's speculations were rarely wrong.
Moreover, the only person in the old capital who had a grudge against the Zhus would probably point their fingers at Lin Mengya.
Given her status, it was unknown what kind of storm she would stir up in the old capital.
"Your Highness, the governor is here to visit. He said he has something important to ask you and the princess. "
Just as he finished speaking, a servant came in to deliver the message.
Zuo Qiuyu looked at Lin Mengya. She had arrived so quickly.
"You go ahead, I'll come later."
Zuo Qiuyu nodded. Of course, he knew that Lin Mengya was worried about Long Tianhao and wanted to see him first.
"Let's go."
What could the governor do? With him around, no one could easily hurt Lin Mengya!
The sour and rotten smell in the room had long been washed away by the wind outside, and there was no smell at all.
The faint fragrance of the nerve-soothing incense calmed one's mind.
Long Tianhao closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. It was rare for Ling Ye to appear in front of him to protect him.
"Ye, don't tell anyone about this."
Long Tianhao said softly, but there was no doubt in his tone. He had no choice but to submit to him willingly.
"Yes."
He was used to being the prince's shadow. As long as the prince was around, he would always be the prince's sharpest weapon.
"How are you feeling? Does it still hurt? "
A gentle voice filled with concern came from outside the door.
Ling Ye and Long Tianhao turned to look at the door at the same time.
"It doesn't hurt anymore. Your medicine is really effective."
Long Tianhao's face relaxed a lot. Looking at the delicate and slender girl in front of him, his eyes unconsciously revealed a doting gentleness.
"It's not my medicine that's effective. It's your body that's good. Have you eaten?"
Sitting by Long Tianhao's bed, Lin Mengya noticed that although the quilt on the bed had been changed, Long Tianhao's clothes were still slightly damp.
His physical strength had been depleted. Every time his drug addiction flared up, it was like a torture in hell.
Now that he was weak both inside and out, his body was not as strong as before.
How much Immortal Powder did those damn people give Long Tianhao?
A hint of viciousness appeared in Lin Mengya's eyes. But very quickly, she covered it up.
"I've eaten. How about you? Oh yes, I heard from Zuo Qiuyu that your right hand has started to receive treatment. How is it? Does it hurt? "
Long Tianhao propped himself up and leaned against the bed, looking at her right arm with concern.
He reached out and gently stroked her right shoulder, as if he was afraid of hurting her.
"Of course it doesn't hurt. Did you forget that my right arm doesn't feel anything now? Even if you use a knife to scrape my bones to heal me, I'm afraid I won't take it seriously. "
Lin Mengya gently comforted Long Tianyu, even though he still had a lingering fear of the burning charcoal.
But it did not matter. As long as her right arm could recover, she could perform acupuncture on Long Tianhao earlier.
Everything was worth it.
"Silly girl, it's been hard on you."
Long Tianhao stroked the tip of her nose and gently held her in his arms.
Smelling the fragrance of her hair, many times when he almost fell into the illusion, he would wake up because the illusion did not have the cold fragrance of her body.
It was great that this was real.
He really wanted to crush her into pieces and melt her into his body, so that they would never be separated again.
"By the way, do you still remember who captured you?"
She lay on Long Tianhao's chest, listening to his rhythmic heartbeat. Lin Mengya still asked the question in her mind.
"I must have been bewitched by someone. At that time, I only remember a pair of hands waving in front of me. I don't know what happened next. But when I woke up, I found myself in an underground secret prison. There were countless people there apart from me. They were forced to take the Immortal Powder. The people guarding us were all wearing ghost masks. But I don't know who they were. "
Listening to Long Tianhao's words, Lin Mengya had some other worries.
"Are you saying that they fed everyone the Immortal Powder?"
Long Tianhao nodded his head. Although he did not come into contact with many people, he knew that apart from him, all of them were crying in their cells all day long, asking for the Immortal Powder.
"Why? What's on your mind? "
Long Tianhao lowered his head and asked softly when he saw Lin Mengya deep in thought.
"I just feel that it's a little unbelievable."
Something was forming in her mind, but Lin Mengya did not have any evidence to explain what was going on.
Opium poppy was widely cultivated in the Nation of Lieyun, but few other countries cultivated it. Even if there was, it was only used as medicine.
Moreover, other than opium poppy, there were other hallucinogens in the Immortal Powder.
This kind of thing, if it was in the black market, would be the most sought after drug.
Of course, the price would not be cheap.
But why would it be given to so many people in a dungeon?
This kind of thing, as long as you used it once, it would be very difficult to quit.
Could it be that they were testing it?
"I didn't expect such a strange and evil place to be hidden in the old capital of the Nation of Lintian."
This incident did not cast a shadow over Long Tianhao's mind.
On the contrary, it made him more determined and determined to get rid of these scums.
"I think it's because there is such a big organization like the Pavilion of Herbs in the old capital. That's why there are harmful things like the Immortal Powder. If one doesn't understand medicine, he won't be able to make it. "
Lin Mengya said thoughtfully. Although the Immortal Powder was harmful, it was a rare and magical medicine for those who wanted to get their hands on it.
Now it seemed that the Immortal Powder was still in the experimental stage.
The one they gave to Long Tianhao should be a complete product. But if it was a complete product, they should not continue to use people to test the medicine.
Could it be that they had made new changes to the formula of the Immortal Powder?
Lin Mengya could not help but feel a little creeped out. Such drugs, not to mention human beings. Such a drug, not to mention human beings, could destroy a country!
"Oh yes, do you still remember the reaction of those people after they took it?"
Lin Mengya asked anxiously. Long Tianhao thought for a moment and told Lin Mengya in detail what he had seen.
"According to what you said, if the Immortal Powder was really developed, the whole Nation of Lintian would be in chaos."
The pictures of the war in the history class were still vivid in her mind.
No, she could not let this damned Immortal Powder destroy her mother's country!
"That's right, this kind of thing has always been circulated among the nobles. But I saw those people sometimes even catch some peddlers and pawns to take the Immortal Powder. Although I was trapped there, I could vaguely hear them saying that if they wanted to get the Immortal Powder, they had to bring more people. "
Long Tianhao looked a little serious. If he was a short-sighted person, he might think that the Nation of Lintian was just a neighboring country.
If there was chaos, they could even get a share of the benefits.
But Long Tianhao was very shrewd. The two countries were close neighbors, and if the Immortal Powder were to spread in the Nation of Lintian.
They were bound to infiltrate the State of Jin.
Furthermore, it was very likely that the people who imprisoned him were from the Jin Nation!
"Have a rest first, I'll go out to look for Cousin Yu. Have a good sleep. I heard from the servants that you did it again in the afternoon. But it's much better than the one in the morning. With your determination, you will definitely be able to get rid of it. "
Lin Mengya's face became gentle again.
She gently covered Long Tianhao with the quilt and said with a gentle smile.
Long Tianhao was not used to being treated like a child by her. However, he still obediently lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.
Watching her gently close the door, Long Tianhao opened his eyes at this moment.
At this time, the decadence had completely disappeared. Instead, there was a sharp light in his eyes, although he was tired.
"Ye."
Ling Ye's figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
He bowed respectfully, as if he could turn into a sharp sword in Long Tianhao's hand at any time.
"Gather people and send a message back home. Tell them that the flood is spreading, and they should be extra careful. "
"Yes."
A gust of wind blew, and the figure disappeared.
Long Tianhao lay on the bed, looking at the red marks on his wrist which he had deliberately hidden just now.
Although Lin Mengya had been prepared in advance, she still left such a wound because of Long Tianhao's strength.
He clenched his fists. Every time the drug addiction acted up, it was like a trip to hell for him.
However, he would continue to endure until these things could no longer control him!
In the living room, Zuo Qiuyu was impatiently dealing with the governor who kept questioning him.
In fact, it was not easy to be the governor of the old capital. The previous governor was a loyalist, and now he was in charge of Wangtian City.
On the surface, the current governor seemed to be a neutral party.
But in the end, it was hard to tell whether he was loyal or not.
At this moment, he was in a dilemma, hoping that Zuo Qiuyu would invite Lin Mengya out.
However, although Prince Shen appeared to be easy-going, he was a difficult person to deal with now.
After so long, he could only evade the topic and did not mention when he would invite Princess Anle.
"The princess has arrived …"
At this moment, the voice of the servant was like the sound of nature to the governor.
Then, a beautiful lady dressed in a palace dress slowly walked out from behind the screen.
Although she was not as glamorous as she was at the Pavilion of Herbs that day.
But the natural elegance and nobility exuded from her bones were hard to ignore.
"This lowly official pays respect to the Princess."
The governor, who was over 50 years old, hurriedly bowed to Lin Mengya.
But the princess pretended to help him up and said calmly,
