Lin Mengya waved the Black Dragon Token in her hand. Her meaning was clear.
It was Zuo Qiuchen who had revealed these secrets to her.
At this moment, the expressions on the elders' faces kept changing. They seemed to be in disbelief that the little emperor had already found out about these things.
What other secrets were in the Pavilion of Herbs that the emperor did not know about?
Once the elders were intimidated, it would be much easier for the people below to do their work.
"My disciple! Your life is so hard. If you die like this, how am I going to live in the future? "
It seemed that Lin Mengya was going to deceive them all. Qian Yuming immediately began to mourn like a shrew.
His emotions were real and his voice was sorrowful. If he had not known that this guy was the mastermind who sent his disciple to his death. Lin Mengya really believed his acting.
It was obvious that people who had been in such a place for a long time would have top-notch acting skills.
Seeing that he could not gain anything, Qian Yuming began to cry again.
Lin Mengya's eyes inadvertently caught the gloating look in Duanmu Yang's eyes. It seemed that there were quite a lot of conflicts between them.
Perhaps Du Zhong had also come for the key in the box with an abstruse secret.
Qian Yuming was really scheming.
"Although your disciple died at such a young age, he deserved it. However, I'm curious, Elder Qian, who should be in possession of the key to the box with an abstruse secret? "
Although these people wanted to resist Zuo Qiuyu together, unfortunately, they only knew how to fight among themselves.
First of all, they had given the box with an abstruse secret to Cousin Yu.
However, the key in the box with an abstruse secret could be considered as another token to inherit the position of the Chief Elder.
Therefore, the minds of these people started to become active.
From the moment they saw that something had happened to them, they hurried over in a short time.
Apart from Elder Chang Tianhua, who was not far from here, they could be excluded for the time being. In that case, the remaining people must have come prepared.
Presumably, they wanted to hear the cause of Zuo Qiuyu's death by opening the box with an abstruse secret by mistake.
It was a pity that Qian Yuming was too greedy and stupid, which allowed her to take advantage of the situation.
However, Du Zhong's death was indeed troublesome.
"We've been looking for the key to the Box of Abstruse Secrets, but we've never found it. Perhaps, someone with ulterior motives was hiding it. However, Your Highness, this man died in front of you. Please give us an answer, Your Highness and the Prince. "
The one who spoke was the rational Duanmu Yang.
Ever since he met Lin Mengya face to face, he had been choked by her. Someone must have told Duanmu Yang to be more polite to Lin Mengya.
The way he addressed her as a princess, it seemed like he was much more respected than before.
"This person was killed by the mechanism of the Profound Secret Box, why? He's greedy by nature, that's why he stole the key and wanted to open the box with an abstruse secret. Are you going to blame this on us? "
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows coldly. She didn't even try to hide the impatience in her eyes.
Elder Duanmu Yin, who had been standing beside Duanmu Yang, snorted coldly and said faintly,
"Perhaps, this unlucky fellow became someone else's scapegoat. I've long heard that the people of the Lin family in Dajin are decisive in killing people. Humph, she's General Lin's daughter after all. It's hard to tell whether this is a conspiracy or not. "
Duanmu Yin's voice was hoarse, but Lin Mengya felt a little uneasy and angry when she heard his words.
This man had more white than black eyes. Although he looked a little like Duanmu Yang, he gave off a sinister feeling.
The moment he spoke, the temperature seemed to drop a lot in an instant.
Many disciples looked more fearful than respectful when they saw Duanmu Yin.
Moreover, although he didn't speak often. However, every word he said was like a nail, trying to pin the crime on Lin Mengya and the others at every moment.
What was originally a favorable situation was turned around by him with just a few words.
However, Lin Mengya also realized. Although Nan Rui seemed to be the leader in the Pavilion of Herbs. But after Duanmu Yin spoke, these elders, except for Chang Tianhua, became much more harmonious.
Strange? Could it be that there was something extraordinary about Duanmu Yin?
"Yes, my disciple is simple by nature. Moreover, he has served his teacher faithfully and has never been disrespectful. It's hard to guarantee that someone won't make use of my disciple's character to make him a scapegoat! "
It was Qian Yuming who coveted the key, but now he spoke sharply and pointed at Lin Mengya with an agitated expression. On the contrary, he even felt a little impassioned.
Lin Mengya felt strange. Why did the arrogant Qian Yuming seem to listen to Duanmu Yin's words?
Seeing that Duanmu Yin had spoken, this guy seemed to have gained some confidence.
Her hesitation was taken as a guilty conscience by some of the others. In an instant, the atmosphere became a little aggressive and oppressive to Lin Mengya.
"Punish the murderer! Avenge Senior Brother Du Zhong! "
Someone shouted in the crowd.
Immediately, their emotions were stirred up. After all, Lin Mengya and the others were outsiders. How could they buy people's hearts like Qian Yuming and the others?
Lin Mengya frowned. Just when she was about to lose her temper, a figure stood in front of her.
"Prince Yu, although you're a distinguished guest of our country, are you going to bend the law for personal gain?"
Qian Yuming frowned. How dare he point his finger at Long Tianhao without any fear of death.
"Crack!" Following that, Qian Yuming squealed like a pig being slaughtered.
"Ah! My finger, I'll fight you! "
With Duanmu Yin's support, Qian Yuming seemed to be a little carried away.
How dare he point his finger at Long Tianhao?
However, no one could see clearly how Long Tianhao did it. However, after the sound of the bone, Qian Yuming's finger had already started to curve into a strange angle.
Everyone present was a doctor, so they naturally knew that the finger had been fractured.
"Humph!"
Qian Yuming was so angry that he dashed toward Long Tianhao with his teeth bared.
But Long Tianhao only snorted coldly and then raised his left hand slightly. Qian Yuming, who was dashing toward him, was thrown out of the crowd in an instant like a weightless human model.
Everyone, including Lin Mengya, who had been standing behind Qian Yuming, tacitly used their eyes to trace the perfect arc of Elder Qian's body.
They watched him fall heavily, and then he fainted on the spot before he could catch his breath.
The crowd instantly fell into a dead silence.
There was a hint of murderous intent in his cold eyes. Long Tianhao casually glanced at them with his eyes. In an instant, the crowd automatically moved back five meters.
Lin Mengya could not help but snigger in her heart. These guys were used to arguing.
Now, they met Long Tianhao, a violent maniac who would throw them out at the slightest disagreement. Instead, they were frightened.
"Elder Qian, Elder Qian! Quick, send Elder Qian back! "
Duanmu Yang hurriedly brought his disciple to check on Qian Yuming's condition.
He had merely fainted because he could not catch his breath. He would not die. But in the Pavilion of Herbs, Qian Yuming would become a secret laughing stock in the future.
Qian Yuming's disciple hurriedly sent him away, but Lin Mengya quietly walked out from behind Long Tianhao.
Her gentle eyes were as cold as water. She and Long Tianhao's appearance had always been outstanding. But now, the disciples of the Pavilion of Herbs were as serious as the Black and White Impermanence in hell. It was a daunting sight to behold.
"Your Highness! Prince Yu, may I ask what you mean by this? "
Nan Rui seemed to be a little angry. His eyes were a little cold as he looked at Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao.
"This is Elder Qian who was disrespectful to us first. As a subject, you have to abide by the rules. This time, my husband is just giving you a small punishment as a warning to you. Next time, it will be different. "
The sudden burst of momentum and Long Tianhao, who had been silent with a gloomy face, became a nightmare for many people.
Perhaps it was because deep in his bones, he had the courage that the Lin family had honed in the battlefield.
Once Lin Mengya put on a serious expression, there was a cold murderous aura, so that no one dared to look down on her.
"There are many doubts about Du Zhong's case. Naturally, I want to give you an explanation. Whether you believe it or not, I believe that there will be a fair judgment in the future. But if some people want to deliberately discredit me, my wife, and Prince Shen. Think about how many heads you have to chop off for insulting the royal family! "
Of course, Lin Mengya knew that what had happened tonight would cause public opinion.
Although gossip was a fearful thing. No matter what she did, it was difficult to stop people from talking. However, her threat could, to a certain extent, make these people a little afraid.
"Since you have said so, we can't make things too difficult for you, Your Highness. However, no matter whether Du Zhong was killed because of you or not, he had something to do with you and Prince Shen. As a disciple of the Pavilion of Herbs, Du Zhong must be investigated in detail. Before the truth is found out, please don't wander around in the Pavilion of Herbs at will, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble. "
Nan Rui said reluctantly after thinking for a moment.
Now everyone had their reasons, and no one could produce any evidence to prove that the other side's words were wrong.
Therefore, Nan Rui's request was fair.
However, in this way, all their actions in the Pavilion of Herbs would be restricted.
It would be a little inconvenient.
"Although you have a precious body, the emperor will be punished the same as the common people if he breaks the law. If you insist on not doing it, I have to report it to the imperial court and ask the emperor to make a decision! "
Lin Mengya had to agree with Nan Rui's ultimatum.
If this matter was reported to Zuo Qiuchen, then for the sake of reputation and to maintain the rule of law, Zuo Qiuchen would definitely be put in a difficult position.
