Indeed, Long Tianhao could only rest assured when he was with Lin Mengya.
Moreover, she had a lot of capable people around her, so she should be able to arrange the task of teaching Long Yinghua.
"In a while, my father may ask you about the details of the plague. You just need to tell him the truth."
Long Tianhao gave Lin Mengya a few more instructions. In fact, his father appreciated Lin Mengya's attitude very much.
He believed that he would not make things difficult for her.
"His Majesty is here —"
Outside the hall, the voice of the servants supervisor sounded. Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao looked at each other and stood respectfully at the door to greet the emperor.
In private, the emperor of Jin 'an changed into ordinary clothes and smiled more. Compared with the extremely dignified face in the morning, he looked more loving.
"Get up. We're a family. Don't be too restrained."
In the side hall, there were only Long Tianhao, Lin Mengya, and Lin Mengya. The emperor sat in the main seat and also asked them to sit down.
Now, for the first time, Lin Mengya carefully looked at the emperor of Jin 'an.
When her father was at home, he admired and respected this wise emperor very much.
From the looks of it now, even though he had aged a little due to the passage of time, one could still see the shadow of the high-spirited young emperor on his resolute face.
However, compared with the time when he was in a coma, he had lost a lot of weight. But his eyes, full of wisdom, were still bursting out of them, and they were unrivaled domineering.
Compared to his father, Long Tianhao was like a little wolf that had just matured.
This man was the real ruthless one.
"At that time, I was sick and could only let those people mess around with you and Yu 'er. However, in the end, Yu 'er's luck was good, and a good fate was formed. I'll make it up to the Lin family. "
As soon as she spoke, Lin Mengya lost her temper.
As a monarch, the emperor should not explain so much to her. However, by saying so, Lin Mengya and the Lin family could no longer hold any grudge against the emperor.
"Father, you're too serious. I can't afford it."
Lin Mengya was very obedient. The emperor looked at his sensible daughter-in-law and nodded.
Yes, she was born in the Lin family, and she was different from ordinary women.
At that moment, he made up his mind.
"I heard from Yu 'er that you have a good understanding of the plague. I summoned you here today because I want to know if that plague is really man-made. "
Lin Mengya looked up at the emperor.
Seeing that he seemed to know what to do, Lin Mengya pondered for a moment and then answered carefully,
"Although I already have a guess in my heart, I still have some doubts in my heart before going to the site to investigate and verify it. There were precedents of plagues in the past dynasties, and the actual situation was different from one dynasty to another. Therefore, your daughter-in-law does not dare to jump to conclusions. "
Hearing her words, the emperor of Jin 'an knew what she was thinking.
However, even a man would turn pale at the mere mention of the plague.
She was just a girl. If she went there rashly, wouldn't she be courting death?
Her eyes fell on Long Tianhao. She was surprised to see a trace of tenderness in the eyes of her son, who had always been cold.
Sigh, why was it that the men of the Long Family could never escape love?
"In this case, if I send you to Yun State, can you really find out the truth? Yun State is the ancestral home of the aristocratic families, and you know the pros and cons. "
His tone suddenly became serious.
Lin Mengya got up and knelt on the ground.
"Father, although I'm young and immature, I can only contribute to small things like curing diseases and detoxification. However, Prince Yu, you must have thought it through. I'm just trying my best. "
Hearing Lin Mengya's words, the emperor couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Since ancient times, women were not allowed to participate in politics. He was afraid that his son would marry another ambitious woman.
In that case, the harem would never be peaceful. Moreover, the Lin family held the military power. If Lin Mengya was too ambitious, Jin State would fall into civil strife again.
Therefore, he had to test Lin Mengya with a few words.
"Well, I'm relieved to hear that. However, this time when you go to the Cloud State, I have something more important for the two of you to do. "
"Something else?" Lin Mengya looked at Long Tianhao in doubt, but he also looked confused. It seemed that even he didn't know.
"Father, please tell me."
The emperor of Jin 'an looked at them with a grim expression, then he took out a jade token from his wide sleeve.
The jade token was about the size of a palm, crystal clear and white. At first glance, one could tell it was a fine mutton-fat white jade.
The emperor put the jade token on the table and motioned for them to come up to have a look.
When Lin Mengya went up to it, she saw clearly that there were some messy red marks on the jade token. Among the red marks, there were a few small black spots.
At first glance, there was no clue.
However, after careful observation, Lin Mengya vaguely felt that this thing was like a miniature map!
Subconsciously, she scanned it with the Shen Nung system, but for a moment, she couldn't figure out what the lines on the jade token meant.
"Imperial Father, isn't this … isn't this the jade tablet that Imperial Grandfather always carries with him? Why did it become like this? "
Long Tianhao was a little surprised. Others might not know about it, but he knew it best.
In the beginning, because his mother's family had a close relationship with his grandfather, grandfather treated him with special respect.
Unexpectedly, he was asked to stay in the bedchamber by his grandfather, so he had the opportunity to see this close thing once or twice.
However, this jade token was kept by his grandfather, and he never showed it to others easily.
Now, he didn't know why his father took it out.
The emperor sighed slightly, and there was a trace of bitterness on his relaxed face when he looked at the jade token.
He gently stroked the surface of the jade token with his big hand. Then, he solemnly pushed the jade token to Long Tianhao.
"This jade token once led the Long family to conquer the world and build a hegemony. Therefore, it was used as a keepsake for all the former emperors, and it never left them. But before I fell into a coma, I figured out some secrets about this jade token. Now that Yunzhou is in trouble, who knows if this is a warning to me? I won't give in. But the people in the world are innocent. Now, this jade token has become the target of public criticism. The two of you are the people I trust the most. Therefore, I hope that you can take care of this jade pendant from now on. I'll completely destroy the secret of the Long family. "
There was unwillingness and disappointment in his strong voice, but there was no trace of regret. Lin Mengya looked at the emperor's calm face and understood why her father and those clans chose to support him.
Everyone had ambitions and desires.
As an emperor, he stood further, so naturally, he wanted more.
But not everyone would choose to restrain their desires for the sake of the people.
An emperor who could give up his ambition to expand the territory and be willing to temporarily endure for the sake of the people was worthy of admiration.
"Yes, I will."
Long Tianhao knelt down and solemnly took the jade token with both hands.
The emperor looked at his son, and there was some relief between his eyebrows.
"Well, take a rest in the capital city for a few days, and then set off for Yun State immediately. Besides, you did the right thing in the court today. I know what you're thinking, and I'll definitely find out the whereabouts of your mother. Don't worry, you can go. "
Hearing the emperor mention what happened in the court again, Lin Mengya frowned slightly.
She couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"What happened in the court on earth? Even the emperor seems to have no choice but to put up with it."
After talking for a while, the emperor's face was gradually covered with fatigue.
Although Zuo Qiuyu tried his best to protect the emperor's foundation, the emperor was getting old after all. In addition, since he woke up, he had been working hard, and his health was not as good as before.
After instructing the Servants Supervisor to personally escort the couple out of the palace, he also went to his bedroom surrounded by many servants.
Lin Mengya looked at Long Tianhao and saw the worry in his eyes. She gently reached out and held his big rough hand.
"It's okay. Everything will be fine."
Her soft voice seemed to have magical power.
Long Tianhao turned his hand back and held the soft little hand tightly.
Yes, she was still here.
"Let's go back to the mansion."
Baiji, who was waiting for her master anxiously outside the hall, was very happy to see her master and the prince.
But soon, she suppressed the smile on her face and followed behind Lin Mengya with a straight face.
The palace seemed to be different from before.
In fact, she couldn't tell what was wrong, but she felt that it was a little more dull than before.
Moreover, the eunuchs and palace maids who were responsible for watching them all looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Even the patrolling guards would look at them a few times with a straight face.
She felt that she was like a bird in a cage. She had to be watched by others at every turn.
Now that he was about to leave the palace, he was like a little bird that had been released from its cage.
The sedan chair returned to Prince Yu's Mansion from the imperial city.
Before leaving the palace, Long Tianhao had sent someone to inform Concubine Xian.
According to the secret report from the palace maids, Concubine Xian would send someone to send the 10th prince to Prince Yu's Mansion in the evening.
Long Tianhao attached great importance to it, so Lin Mengya had to consider it thoroughly.
