"Of course, I have to give you an explanation, Your Highness. However, there are many doubts about Du Zhong's death. I hope you can give me some time, and I'll definitely get to the bottom of it."
Nan Rui evaded, but he still wanted to stall for time.
Unfortunately, Lin Mengya had already seen through his thoughts. His attitude also became aggressive.
"Explanation? Well, I'll write a letter to His Majesty now, so that His Majesty can personally ask about this matter. Otherwise, all of us will have to suffer such unjust treatment. Elder Nan, are you going to stop me from doing this? Or do you think that His Majesty has no right to ask about this matter? "
Lin Mengya's words were sharp and pointed to the heart.
She rarely had such an arrogant and sharp attitude, so for a moment, Nan Rui did not know how to answer.
"We came to the Pavilion of Herbs under the Emperor's order. Who knew that we would be grounded here. I didn't act up before because Du Zhong's death was strange. Prince Yu and I didn't want to arouse suspicion. But you really think that we're prisoners, so you don't even care about your reputation! "
Although Lin Mengya did not say it clearly, everyone knew that she was talking about the incident of someone sneaking into the Pavilion of Herbs to steal things that night.
Although this matter was carried out in secret, and the other party had suffered a great loss, it was not a big deal.
But after all, it was something that both sides understood.
She had endured for many days, and the other party thought that she didn't want to make it public. Unexpectedly, she exposed it in public.
For a moment, except for Chang Tianhua, the four elders couldn't help but feel that their faces were burning.
"Your Highness, where did this come from? Although we hope that you can help us, we still treat you with courtesy. I'm afraid that you've misunderstood something, Your Highness. "
Duanmu Yang came out to smooth things over, but Lin Mengya snorted coldly, pointed at the door, and said to the two disciples who were still sleeping.
"Everyone saw how Du Zhong died. You don't have any conclusive evidence whether we did it or not, do you? If you have any evidence, show it to me, and I'll admit it. But now? You found a few people to watch us day and night, and don't allow us to step out of the courtyard. A country has its laws, and a family has its rules. May I ask, what law have we broken? What kind of yamen does your Pavilion of Herbs belong to? How dare you imprison a Royal Prince and a Royal Princess! Not to mention that the First Elder was not in the pavilion today. Even if the Great Elder is here, in terms of law and reason, he should still address my elder brother as' Long live the Duke '. Who the hell are you?! "
Lin Mengya's words were like a torrent of abuse to them.
However, every word she said was based on logic and ethics. In the past, she was smart and polite, but now, she was stuck in the throats of several people.
Amidst the arrogance, there was a tinge of solemnity.
Even Duanmu Yang, who had always been eloquent and eloquent, choked on her words.
"Your Highness, aren't you being a little unreasonable? Du Zhong lost his life because of Prince Shen. All the disciples in the pavilion were witnesses. Are you going to disregard a life because of a few words from Your Highness? "
Qian Yuming was so infuriated by Lin Mengya that he could not choose his words. No one in the Pavilion of Herbs had dared to talk to him like this for so many years.
However, as soon as he said that, Lin Mengya's eyes were fixed on Qian Yuming with cold killing intent.
She raised her eyebrows, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were filled with coldness.
"You said that Du Zhong died because of my cousin? Well, since Elder Qian is so sure, please show me the evidence! If Elder Qian can't show me any evidence to prove that Du Zhong's death has something to do with Prince Shen, I'll immediately write to His Majesty and say that you're slandering the royal family! "
Lin Mengya's righteous words caught Qian Yuming's words. With that, the several old fellows on the other side began to complain incessantly.
It would have been better if Qian Yuming had not said this, but now that he said this, they understood that if they did not show evidence, They would not be able to settle this peacefully today.
"Slandering the royal family is a serious crime."
Long Tianhao, who had not spoken for a long time, stood behind Lin Mengya at this moment. His long and narrow eyes were shining with a shrewd cold light.
"Although this is the Nation of Lintian, the people of Jin State are not useless people who are at the mercy of others. If you can't give us a reasonable explanation, I'll have to consult the monarch of the Nation of Lintian personally as the prince of Jin State! "
They had known that Lin Mengya was not to be trifled with, but it was too late for them to understand this truth now.
Not to mention others, whether it was Long Tianhao or the girl from Lieyun who was covered with poisonous insects and plants, they were now staring at them like tigers watching their prey.
They obviously had the upper hand in terms of numbers. Yet, these people's auras were actually able to suppress him.
Now it seemed that they were the ones who were at a disadvantage.
Your Highness, this is the Pavilion of Herbs after all, which is different from other places. Please don't make things difficult for us, Your Highness. "
Duanmu Yang's attitude also became a little stiff.
After all, they had been in the Pavilion of Herbs for so many years and were used to doing evil. Now that they had encountered such a tough person like Lin Mengya, they were unable to turn around immediately.
"Make things difficult? The Pavilion of Herbs is also part of the Nation of Lintian. Or do you think that the Pavilion of Herbs can surpass the royal family of Lintian? Elders, what you're after isn't small! "
Lin Mengya's eyes were cold. Xiu, Long Tianhao, Zuo Qiuyu, who had not made a sound, and Yu An, who had been guarding against them.
There was a hint of anger on everyone's face, and they had vaguely sensed the killing intent.
Although the Pavilion of Herbs was full of deception and deception and had secretly killed many people.
However, they were still no match for these people's momentum.
This was because they realized that Lin Mengya really wanted their lives!
"Elder Nan, Elder Duanmu, and Elder Qian. Since all of you had sworn that Du Zhong's death was caused by Prince Shen, then please show us the evidence. Moreover, I believe that you must have your own reasons for saying so. At a time like this, there was no point in hiding anymore. Take it out. All of us can resolve this misunderstanding. "
At this moment, Chang Tianhua was the only elder who was not afraid of Lin Mengya and the others.
With a smile on his face, Chang Tianhua looked at his four colleagues.
However, it was obvious that he was sowing discord among the four of them.
"Old Chang! Don't think that you can make irresponsible remarks just because someone is backing you up! "
Of course, Qian Yuming knew that Chang Tianhua was talking to him.
Because now, it was obvious that Nan Rui and the guy from the Duanmu Family were somewhat dissatisfied with him.
He clenched his teeth. This was the first time in his life that he had ever been so infuriated.
"Humph, it doesn't matter if someone is backing me up or not. "I, Old Chang, have always been a man of my word. We have worked together for so long, so I naturally know that some people are scheming and are used to using others as knives. "
Chang Tianhua's words drove a wedge between them, but imperceptibly enlightened Qian Yuming.
He glanced at the other three people with a vicious look.
Qian Yuming naturally knew that he had been schemed against in the case of Du Zhong, so he made his disciple the scapegoat.
Thus, the enmity between the four of them deepened.
Chang Tianhua looked free and easy. Anyway, although he was the weakest and had the support of the princess behind him, he could not make a big deal.
Therefore, these four people, of course, would fight among themselves first.
The corners of Xiao Chen's mouth curled up into a cold smile. Even now, these people still did not understand that they were only digging their own graves by fighting each other.
"Elders, I respect all of you as my seniors, so I believe you a little. Unexpectedly, you don't do your best to find out the truth, but make things difficult for us. You even forcibly put this crime on our heads! Today, if you don't give us a satisfactory answer, I will not let it go! "
Lin Mengya's resolute and decisive attitude made the atmosphere tense immediately.
Although those disciples were afraid of the momentum of Lin Mengya and her companions, after all, they were the majority. Although they did not dare to look at Lin Mengya and her companions face to face, they also took advantage of the fact that they had more people to muster up some courage.
But Lin Mengya's eyes swept in front of them one by one, and no one dared to look at this little girl directly.
"Humph, just a group of mobs." The contempt in Lin Mengya's heart deepened, and her face was frighteningly cold.
"You! You're slandering us! Guards, take them down for me! "
Qian Yuming had long been flustered and exasperated. After Chang Tianhua's incitement, the remaining three people might think that he still had a backup plan.
In for a penny, in for a pound, in for a pound. He directly took these people down. Anyway, now no one dared to stop him.
Evil came with courage. Qian Yuming's subordinates, the disciples of his family, actually dared to go forward to take down Lin Mengya and her companions.
And Nan Rui and Duanmu Yang naturally had the same idea. Unexpectedly, they did not stop them.
They just stood aside and watched indifferently.
Lin Mengya sneered in her heart. "Look, now, they can't hold back their wild ambitions completely."
Long Tianyu automatically stood in front of Lin Mengya and his body was tense. As long as someone dared to harm Lin Mengya, he would immediately turn into the King of Hell and would not let anyone get close to her.
"Qian Yuming, you're really bold. Your Qian family is ruined today! "
More and more disciples of the Qian family surrounded Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya's eyes flashed with a gloomy coldness. What she said was not a joke.
