Lin Mengya's attitude was kind, but what she said was really choking.
Although Old Madame Shangguan could use her status to look down on her and order her about, Old Madame Shangguan did not dare to do so.
However, a married girl was like water that was poured out. Her life and death were the business of her husband's family. How could she allow her family to say anything?
At this time, Old Madam Shangguan also understood that the girl in front of her was also soft but tough.
Moreover, with the power of the Lin family and Long Tianhao's current status, it might not be appropriate for her to continue talking.
However, she had been living a comfortable life all year round, so she was used to criticizing everyone in such a strong way.
What's more, she was a junior. Immediately, Old Madam Shangguan put away her forced smile.
She stared at the girl in front of her with a pair of sharp eyes.
"Humph, do you know that even if your father was here, he wouldn't dare to talk to me like this? Even if you're Princess Yu, don't lose your sense of propriety! "
Not to mention that Shangguan Qing was her youngest daughter, so she naturally doted on her.
Even this girl shouldn't talk back to her like this. Even her father had to be courteous in front of her.
After all, she was the mother-in-law of the emperor. How could a woman surpass her in status?
As soon as these words came out, several people around couldn't help but gasp.
It seemed that Old Madam Shangguan was really angry. He couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat for Princess Yu, who was weak and powerless.
Just when everyone thought that Lin Mengya would fly into a rage or be embarrassed, she gently broke into a smile.
"Old Madam is right. In this world, how can a junior talk back to an old madam? I'm confused. The etiquette of a ruler and a minister is just the etiquette of an old madam. When I go back tomorrow, I will immediately go to the palace to ask for punishment and ask my father to remove me from the position of Princess Yu. Then, I will show filial piety with the etiquette of a child. What do you think, grandma? "
For the first time in her life, Old Madam Shangguan was so publicly and mercilessly rebuked.
It could be said that she had a heart, but she just had a gentle smile on her face.
However, if she did it unintentionally, her words would clearly point out that Madam Dowager had violated the rules of the royal family.
To put it bluntly, she was the emperor's mother-in-law. Ever since her daughter married into the royal family, she had become distant from her mother's family.
No matter how low Lin Mengya's seniority was and how young she was, she was still the daughter-in-law of the royal family.
How could an Old Madam of the Shangguan Family compare to her status?
Therefore, Lin Mengya's words were, in fact, reminding Old Grandma of her status. The current Princess Yu was no longer the little girl she used to be. Lin Mengya could do whatever she wanted.
The atmosphere between the two of them was somewhat stiff.
Lin Mengya also gradually stopped smiling. It was her usual practice to use peaceful measures before resorting to force.
However, this old woman obviously had no sense of propriety, so she would not take even half a step back.
"I heard that grandmother has always been healthy. He also hoped that his mother would be able to live a long life like his grandmother. However, no matter if it was at home or outside, he had to keep his spirits up. I'll let my mother have a good rest in Lin's Mansion. Grandmother, you can rest assured. "
No matter how beautiful Lin Mengya's words were, they became a naked provocation in Old Grandma Shangguan's ears.
What an arrogant girl! What a big tone!
However, she had been in the Shangguan Family for so many years, and she had already experienced many hardships. How could she be afraid of a silly little girl!
"That's good. Although our Shangguan Family is not good, at least we won't let our daughter be wronged. It's good that you have such filial piety. If your mother is not good, I, an old bag of bones, will also come to see how my useless daughter is raised in your mansion! "
Lin Mengya nodded slightly, then turned around and walked out of the noisy crowd.
Damn old woman! Relying on her age and seniority, she was as arrogant as a big rooster.
Did she really think that she would be afraid of this old woman who was half buried in the earth?
As soon as she went out, Lin Mengya secretly sighed in her heart.
She didn't know if it was because of Shangguan Qing, but she really didn't like the Shangguan Family at all.
In particular, she had no tolerance for this kind of condescending attitude. Almost subconsciously, she retorted.
Soon, Lin Mengya calmed down. Since she had said it, she couldn't go back with the Moonlight Treasure Box.
But her eyes inadvertently swept in the direction of the Great Buddha's Hall.
Now, after all the madams had left, almost all the monks in the temple seemed to have gathered there.
What on earth happened?
Lin Mengya had never been a person who would be easily aroused by curiosity.
Because she knew that curiosity killed the cat.
However, the monk named Yunshen just now was too mysterious. There was also that shivering feeling that emanated from her soul. It was something that she could not forget for a long time.
Quietly coming to the square outside the main hall, she saw that all the monks were chanting and kowtowing almost non-stop.
Everyone had a solemn look on their faces. It seemed that they were very worried about what had happened in the Great Buddha's Hall.
Lin Mengya stood on tiptoe behind them, but she couldn't see anything.
However, not long after, Monk Yunshen, who had been in the main hall all this while, suddenly walked out for some reason.
Lin Mengya immediately hid in the corner, for fear that her whereabouts would be discovered by that person.
Fortunately, her movements were neat, and she was not discovered by Yunshen.
Obviously, the other party's attention was not on her.
However, Lin Mengya saw with her own eyes that Yunshen took out a few things from the pocket in his hand and stuffed them into the huge incense burner at the entrance of the Great Buddha's Hall.
Suddenly, a delicate sandalwood fragrance gradually spread in the air.
All the monks seemed to be a little excited and kept kowtowing in the direction of Monk Yunshen.
It seemed that this smell was a kind of charity to them.
But Lin Mengya, who was hiding in the corner, was panicking.
This smell …
A deep pain that went deep into her soul made Lin Mengya almost unable to support her body.
All of a sudden, her soul and body, which had been perfectly compatible, almost became fragmented.
The sound of her heartbeat suddenly filled her mind, which almost made her eardrums hurt.
Just when she thought that she was done for, suddenly, an extremely long and clear scent of sandalwood rose from her waist.
The pain, which was like being pricked by needles, gradually faded like the tide.
Holding on to the wall, Lin Mengya gasped for breath in embarrassment.
Perhaps in the nose of others, the smell just now was just a little stronger. However, she was the only one who smelled an extremely strange and lingering fragrance.
Lin Mengya's body was almost soaked, and her legs and feet were extremely sore.
But her hand took out the thing that had been worn around her waist.
In addition to the sachet given by the monks, it was the amulet given by Tian Ning.
It was the amulet that Hongyu insisted on wearing on her waist in the morning. She laughed at Hongyu for being too careful, but she didn't expect that this little thing actually saved her once.
The thick and long sandalwood smell also gradually faded away with Lin Mengya's improvement.
When she put it in her nose, there was no longer that smell.
It seemed that Tian Ning was right. This thing could really save her life.
Lin Mengya carefully put away the amulet. She didn't want to stay here any longer. Anyway, the people in the side hall were almost gone.
It was better to go back earlier.
Unexpectedly, when she just walked to the gate of the courtyard, she was stopped by the Empress's people with other madams.
She looked around. Except for a few people who were related to the Shangguan family, most of the other madams and ladies were gathered here.
Since everyone had been asked to stay, she had nothing to say.
However, seeing that everyone was talking about it, could it be related to what happened in the Mahavira's Hall?
Lin Mengya just kept her speculation in her heart, but she didn't show any emotion on her face.
Looking around, it seemed that the Empress's confidant, Aunt Yan, was not here.
Not long after, the very serious Aunt Yan came over from the direction of the Mahavira's Hall.
As she bowed to the madams, she said very respectfully, "The Empress invites you in.
"Her Majesty the Empress invites you. Everyone, please follow this servant."
Since Aunt Yan was here, those people didn't dare to dawdle.
Even Lin Mengya had to follow the crowd and slowly walked in the direction of the Mahavira's Hall.
At this time, the monks had dispersed. However, many monks with magic staffs in their hands were divided into two rows, standing on the left and right sides of the Mahavira's Hall.
Lin Mengya could clearly see that each of them seemed to have a bit of hatred on their faces.
The monks were people who did not belong to the secular world. Something terrible must have happened for them to feel such deep hatred.
Before Lin Mengya could finish her speculation, the Empress, who looked cold, slowly walked up to them.
As for Master Yunshen, who almost made Lin Mengya kneel down, he followed behind the Empress.
Unknowingly, a profound smile had appeared on that extremely beautiful and feminine face.
Lin Mengya's body involuntarily stiffened when she saw that face.
"What does this mean?"
The Empress stood in front of them and slightly raised her phoenix eyes. The dignity exuded from her bones made the group of madams in front of her automatically lower their heads.
Even Lin Mengya had to admit that. Compared with the too kind and gentle Imperial Noble Consort, the Empress in front of her was more like a motherly model of the world.
