Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya was a straightforward person. She ordered someone to find the families of those women. After a while, several men with black faces hurried to the riverside.
It was inconvenient for them to talk because they were separated by the river.
Not long after, a few well-respected village elders walked to the gate of the isolated campsite under Li Jia's lead.
Lin Mengya sat there calmly, and her gentle eyes became much sharper for some reason.
Those women, who were speaking with conviction just now, all looked at Lin Mengya with a gloomy face and kept quiet out of fear.
"Your Highness, it's my wife who doesn't know any better. Please, for the sake of the baby, spare her life."
Compared to the women who were easily incited, this group of men were very reasonable.
Not to mention anything else, based on what they saw now, if the baby was really taken away from Princess Yu, he would probably die.
Therefore, as soon as they came up, they had to admit their mistakes first. At least, they had to save their lives.
"It's not that I don't want to save her, but she is courting death. It's better for you to solve your own problems. "
It was rare for Lin Mengya to say such sarcastic words.
However, as soon as she said these words, a thin layer of cold sweat immediately appeared on the man's face.
They had clearly inquired about the princess's previous act of righteousness.
Now that she dared to say such words, it must be his wife who had annoyed the Princess.
Immediately, he put on a fierce face, glared at his cowering wife, and then said with a wry smile.
"Your Highness, you're right, but the baby is still young. Please spare her for the sake of the baby, Your Highness. "
In fact, those women had only done such a thing because they had been incited by someone.
What they wanted was to force Lin Mengya to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.
Unfortunately, probably because of the conditions, their means were a little too low-end.
Lin Mengya was not a wishy-washy person. It was not the best choice to win from her hands. These timid women were not her best choice.
She had only asked for their in-laws' family, and that group of people immediately acted like mice that had seen a cat. Perhaps the person behind the scenes was already hopping mad.
The atmosphere was a little stiff. If Lin Mengya didn't speak, no one dared to speak.
Looking around, Lin Mengya also knew that it was the right time to end this matter.
After pretending to muse for a moment, he slowly opened his mouth and said.
"I can forget about this matter. However, if something like this happens again in the future, then life and death will be up to the heavens."
Lin Mengya spoke slowly, but every word she said hit the hearts of the people around her.
This result clearly made the women and their husbands heave a sigh of relief.
If he was really chased out, who knew what would happen?
The atmosphere gradually eased.
But before everyone could heave a sigh of relief, a crazy figure ran out from behind the tent.
Lin Mengya looked over, and the figure knelt down in front of her with a thud.
She grabbed the corner of her clothes with both hands, and for a moment, she couldn't move at all.
Lin Mengya frowned slightly impatiently and looked at the woman kneeling at her feet in confusion.
"Madam Wu, you haven't recovered yet. What are you doing?"
Madam Wu asked in a low voice, and her face was already pale. Didn't she tell her to rest in the tent as much as possible? Why did she appear in front of her at this time?
She even sobbed in a low voice, as if she had suffered a great grievance.
"Your Highness, I was framed by a villain and almost lost my life. Now there is hope for revenge. Please uphold justice for me, Your Highness. "
Madam Wu's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Lin Mengya frowned more and more. Moreover, she had already expected what Madam Wu was going to say.
But before she could stop her, Madam Wu raised her tear-stained face and said loudly with great grief and indignation.
"That night, someone saw Madam Xiao enter my tent. Moreover, it happened to be the time when I felt that I was pricked by needles. Therefore, the murderer must be Madam Xiao. However, she is the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, while I am just a village woman. Your Highness, please uphold justice for me! "
Everyone looked at Madam Wu, who was kneeling on the ground, in astonishment.
What? It turned out to be Madam Xiao!
However, Madam Wu's words hurt the hearts of the families of those squires.
Yes, in the isolated camp, there were more daughters-in-law and children of some high-ranking officials' families. If what Madam Wu said was true, wouldn't they suffer all kinds of grievances here?
Some people immediately felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.
Similarly, the descendants of those noble families also felt that they had been suspected by a villain.
All of a sudden, there was some estrangement in the hearts of both sides. It was difficult to deal with this matter.
"Oh? Is that true? Madam Wu, do you have any evidence? If you have evidence, I will definitely seek justice for you. No matter who that person is or what your identity is, everyone here is a citizen of Dajin. Since they are all citizens of Dajin, there is no difference between nobility and inferiority. Since they were all citizens of Dajin, there was no difference between nobility and lowliness. After Madam Wu finished speaking, Lin Mengya's gloomy face gradually calmed down.
After Madam Wu finished speaking, Lin Mengya's gloomy face gradually calmed down.
Her words were polite and restrained, which made it difficult for others to find fault with her.
However, since Lin Mengya said so, as long as Madam Wu showed the evidence, she would definitely be able to bring down Madam Xiao.
However, Madam Wu raised her head and looked at Lin Mengya with tears in her eyes, without mentioning anything about the evidence at all.
However, Madam Wu raised her head and looked at Lin Mengya with tears in her eyes. She did not mention anything about the evidence at all.
Besides, with so many people watching, we can do justice. " The woman who had just been forgiven by Lin Mengya jumped out to smooth things over at this time.
The woman, who had just been forgiven by Lin Mengya, jumped out to smooth things over.
Madam Wu looked at her in embarrassment and then at Lin Mengya in fear.
In the end, she seemed to have made a decision. She straightened up and looked at Lin Mengya in fear.
In the end, she seemed to have made a decision. She straightened up and looked at Lin Mengya.
"Your Highness, since you said that you would seek justice for me, you shouldn't have promised me. However, on the other hand, you shouldn't have let Madam Xiao go without permission! I know that you have a good relationship with Madam Xiao. However, if you continue to favor Madam Xiao at this time, I'm afraid that we will be disappointed. "
It was Lin Mengya who was confused by her words.
She had not seen sister-in-law Xiao since yesterday. How could she be partial to her?
However, before she could speak, there was a sudden noise from another corner of the isolated camp.
Lin Mengya turned her head and saw Madam Xiao, who looked confused, holding her child and being pushed towards her.
"Your Highness, we just intercepted a woman over there. She said that she left the camp at your order. Now, she has been stopped by us. "
An unfamiliar guard came to report. However, his words, like adding oil to the fire at this time, instantly ignited the dissatisfaction in people's hearts that could not be ignored.
In their hearts, Lin Mengya's awe-inspiring righteousness gradually showed signs of collapsing.
If she could not give a suitable answer, no one would remember Lin Mengya's benefits after today. In that case, after today, no one would remember the good things about Lin Mengya. Everyone would think that she was a muddle-headed person who could not distinguish right from wrong and would only cover up for those close to her.
It was not until now that Lin Mengya could see clearly that Lin Mengya's strategy of killing people's hearts was flawless.
Looking at the increasing dissatisfaction in people's eyes, she also knew that if she lost the support of the people at this time, all her and Long Tianyu's efforts would be in vain.
Anxiety gradually appeared on her perfect and delicate face.
Madam Xiao also understood that it seemed that it was because of her that Princess Yu was under so much pressure.
However, as a woman, how could she understand these conspiracies?
In the crowd, under the reproach and even vicious gazes of the people, she could only tightly protect her child in her arms and bear it silently with her thin and weak body.
But compared with Lin Mengya, these were just a drop in the bucket.
Everyone's gazes were filled with suspicion, reprimand, and even hatred. Everything was no longer hidden, and was directed at her in an obvious manner.
Madam Wu's tears had won too many people's sympathy.
But at this time, Lin Mengya, who was indifferent, looked a little guilty.
Sitting on the stone, Lin Mengya just frowned with a gloomy face, but did not say a word.
In the sound of Madam Wu's crying, more and more people felt resentful for no reason.
It seemed that they had already determined that Madam Xiao was the murderer who murdered Madam Wu.
More and more fierce eyes began to gather on the pitiful and innocent Madam Xiao.
She looked around in horror. She didn't understand why the people who were like family to her last night were now looking at her like enemies.
The surroundings were crowded with people, and Madam Xiao had nowhere to retreat or hide.
But intentionally or unintentionally, the crowd gradually gathered around Madam Xiao.
The pitiful woman had inadvertently become the public enemy of almost everyone.
"No, if this goes on, both my cousin-in-law and Mengya will be in danger!"
Xiao Yixin was standing outside the crowd. He anxiously wanted to rush forward to help.
However, Baili Rui, who had been standing there for a long time, stretched out his hand and stopped him.
"Sir, this is —"
