Lin Mengya's tone was filled with jealousy. She did not look like a royal concubine at all.
Lin Mengya raised her head and smiled. Her attitude was neither servile nor overbearing. On the surface, she seemed to respect Concubine De very much.
However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Lin Mengya did not respect Concubine De at all.
"Daughter-in-law will never forget Lady Mother's advice. However, this time, although her daughter-in-law was away from home, she was thinking about her mother all the time. This is a gift that your daughter-in-law brought for you from outside. Please take care of yourself, Mother. "
After that, Lin Mengya took a long brocade box from Baizhi's hands.
The purplish golden patterns on the box were extraordinary.
"Hmm, thank you."
As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling face. Lin Mengya had done a good job on the surface. Concubine De could not find fault with her, so she could not say anything.
Aunt Jingyue, who had been serving Concubine De, lifted the bead curtain and walked slowly to Lin Mengya. She took the brocade box with both hands.
Lin Mengya saw Jingyue put the box in and lowered her head to hide the cold smile at the corner of her mouth.
"Bam!" The box, which had just been opened, was immediately closed.
The bead curtain blocked Lin Mengya's figure, but it could not hide the horror in Concubine De's eyes.
In fact, for a moment, she almost cried out.
However, Lin Mengya kept her head down and did not do anything. This made Concubine De calm down temporarily.
However, when he spoke again, his voice was inadvertently mixed with a slight tremble.
"Where did you find this ornament?"
Lin Mengya raised her head and pretended to be ignorant.
"In reply to Imperial Mother, His Highness personally found him. It was said that this ornament with a phoenix wearing peony was Lady Mother's favorite. But I heard that you lost this ornament a while ago, and I felt sorry for you. His Highness had specially found one that was exactly the same as the one he had found. But this one is not as exquisite as the one you have. "
Hearing Lin Mengya's words, Concubine De's sharp eyes softened.
However, she was not a fool.
He looked at the figure outside the bead curtain doubtfully. However, when he saw that the other party did not reveal any flaws, he had no choice but to believe him.
"This consort understands. It's already late, you may withdraw."
Without further ado, Lin Mengya bowed and left the main room of the Art Courtyard with the three girls.
After they stepped out of the Art Courtyard and made sure that no one in the Art Courtyard could hear them, Baiji asked cautiously.
"Master, you didn't have to make this trip. It's just a hair ornament, you could have just sent someone to deliver it. Ever since you went out with Prince Yu, Concubine De has a lot of resentment towards you. I was worried that Concubine De would make things difficult for you. "
There was no one around. It seemed that no one in Prince Yu's Mansion dared to spy on them.
"Only I can make this trip. But in the future, the three of you should remember that you can ignore Concubine De's requests. Also, remember, no matter what reason she tells you to go. Without my permission, none of you are allowed to go. Do you understand? "
The three girls nodded at the same time. In their eyes, Lin Mengya was their only master.
Lin Mengya turned around and glanced at the Art Courtyard, which was hidden in the dark.
What was fake would always be fake. It would never become real.
With a loud crash, the whole set of enamel teacups from the official kiln was swept off the mahogany table.
In an instant, it was torn into pieces, and each piece had a sharp edge.
"Tell me! Did you purposely reveal a flaw?! Bitch, how dare you stab me in the back! "
Her ferocious face was filled with uncontrollable anger.
Her sharp fingernails, which were dyed with the color of impatiens, forcefully scratched Aunt Jingyue's calm face.
"Pa!" With a crisp sound, Jingyue's face wrinkled like water ripples that broke the tranquility of the lake. In the end, it peeled off from her left cheek, as if it could not hold on any longer.
Jingyue reached out and took off the human skin mask that she hated so much, but had to wear.
In an instant, Aunt Jinyue, who was rumored to have died suddenly, appeared in front of Concubine De.
At this moment, her haggard left cheek was red and swollen from the slap.
However, his eyes were filled with stubbornness as he stared at the crazy woman without saying a word.
"Humph, don't think that you can save that bitch! Let me tell you, the more Long Tianhao knows, the faster that bitch will die! "
Jinyue knelt on the ground and looked at the hysterical woman without moving.
After a while, she slowly opened her mouth.
"Jingyue, you and I have served Miss Lin together since we were young. Miss Lin only trusted the two of us. But I didn't expect that you would betray Miss Lin for the sake of wealth and glory. You even tried to steal Miss Lin's position. Not to mention that I was trapped by your side day and night, so I had no chance. Even if I could, I would not waste Miss Lin's life. "
Due to her agitation, her high bun was already showing signs of loosening and becoming a little messy.
Her hair was full of pearls and pearls, but it did not bring out the beauty of Jingyue's crazy face.
Her facial features were twisted, especially her eyes, which flashed with frightening viciousness.
Even though she was dressed in silk and satin, she still could not compare with Concubine De's beauty.
"Humph, what a loyal servant. I knew it was the right thing to keep you. Speaking of which, I have to thank you. If you weren't there to guide me, how would I have been able to deceive everyone? I advise you to be obedient. Anyway, everyone thinks that I am the real Concubine De. Even if you tell them the truth, no one will believe your nonsense. "
At this moment, Jingyue was just pretending to be fierce, but weak at heart.
She looked back at the hair ornament on the table, which was still intact.
In an instant, jealousy and hatred flashed in her eyes. She reached out and held the hair ornament in her hand. The cold hairpin seemed to be able to calm the fear in her heart.
She was too agitated just now. Now that she looked at it carefully, she found that the hair ornament was indeed more exquisite than before.
Moreover, it was much newer than the previous one.
Given Long Tianyu's character, if he knew that his mother had been secretly harmed by others, he would not be so calm. Naturally, he would not be so calm.
Moreover, Jinyue was being watched closely by her, so it was unlikely that she would inform him.
After thinking this through, the expression on Jingyue's face became much more relaxed.
Sitting in front of the vanity mirror, she put the new hair ornament in her hair.
Holding a brush made of cloud wood, she carefully tidied up her hair.
In the mirror, Jingyue seemed to be very satisfied with the image of herself with pearls and pearls.
"That's true. If the old doesn't go, the new won't come. This position should have been mine, and Yu 'er should have been my child. Everything was stolen from me by that bitch. Now, I've just gotten back what I wanted. Tidy up here. It's late at night, and I should go to bed. "
In the blink of an eye, the violent and crazy woman turned back into a pretentious noblewoman.
Strong hatred surged in Jinyue's heart.
However, for the sake of Miss Lin and Prince Yu. She had to temporarily bow her head and feign civility.
She lowered her head and reached out to pick up the broken pieces on the ground one by one.
She was even more worried. The emperor must have seen through Jingyue's flaws. She just hoped that the prince and the princess could understand the emperor's painstaking efforts as soon as possible.
In the Liuxin Courtyard, the girls were tired after a day's work. Early in the morning, Lin Mengya asked them to go to bed in the room.
At this moment, only Ms. Tian was on the night watch on the small bed outside.
Lin Mengya changed into a gown, loosened her hair, and sat on the bed, reading the medical book in her hand.
She and Long Tianyu had to go to the epidemic area.
However, she was not 100% sure whether it was a poison or a plague.
After all, some preparations had to be made.
"It's so late. Be careful, your eyes hurt."
A bright red peony suddenly appeared in front of her.
The delicate flower petals replaced the densely packed words on the book.
A fragrance wafted over, eliciting joy in one's heart.
"It's not the time for the peony to bloom. Where did you get it?"
Long Tianyu put down the book and held the peony which was as big as the mouth of a bowl with both hands. Lin Mengya put it to her nose with a smile and sniffed it gently.
"The gardener in the palace cultivated it occasionally. My father refused to give it up, so I only took one out and gave it to you."
Although there was an unconcealable tiredness between his eyebrows.
Long Tianyu tried to make Lin Mengya happy in a relaxed tone.
"Then I can only thank you. You must be tired. Have you had dinner?"
Seeing that Lin Mengya was about to get off the bed, Long Tianyu immediately held her down.
He quickly took off her coat and warmed his clothes in front of the brazier. Then he got on the bed and held Lin Mengya in his arms through the quilt.
"Yes, I've used it in the palace. I've told my father about what happened in the Nation of Lintian. My father was very pleased and said it's a good thing to have a marriage alliance with the Nation of Lintian. He asked me to treat you well. "
Lin Mengya naturally knew that she was the descendant of a loyal official. Her father and brother were on the same side as the emperor. Coupled with her identity as Princess Anle of the Nation of Lintian, the reward for a loyal official became a marriage alliance with a foreign country.
Moreover, she was born in the Jin State. She had the identity of a princess of the Nation of Lintian, but she did not have many connections.
In this way, she could avoid the trouble of foreign relatives stealing the country in the future.
In this way, there were all advantages and no disadvantages. The emperor was not a fool. Presumably, he had more concerns than her, not less.
"Then you have to be obedient in the future. You dare not disobey my father's order. "
