Looking at Qinghu's reminiscing face, Lin Mengya swallowed the question that she was about to ask.
She reached out her hand and gently held Qinghu's hand. Together, they shuttled back and forth among the crowd.
From a distance, Lin Mengya could smell the tempting smell of the chicken soup that had been boiled for a long time.
Hun Dun's stall wasn't big. It only had three simple tables.
Qinghu took Lin Mengya's hand and sat down at one of the tables.
"Boss, give me two bowls of chicken soup! Lass, do you want to eat the meat pancakes of Old Lu's family? I know there are many bad ones there. Wait for me, I'll buy them. "
As soon as he sat down, Qinghu immediately began to recite.
Although Lin Mengya felt that the two of them couldn't eat so much, it was rare for Qinghu to be so excited, so she couldn't refuse him.
She nodded and sat in the chair obediently, waiting for him.
Looking at Qinghu's figure shuttling through the crowd, Lin Mengya couldn't help smiling.
Speaking of which, since Qinghu came to her, he rarely had his own life.
Perhaps it was because he had been too lonely in the past. At least before leaving Candle Dragon Cult, Qinghu had never tried to live a normal life.
Therefore, Lin Mengya acquiesced and supported whatever Qinghu wanted to do.
People had to leave something behind in their life, otherwise, it would be a waste.
The nimble boss filled two bowls of steaming soup in the blink of an eye.
"Thank you."
Lin Mengya nodded and smelled the aroma of the food. She was really hungry.
Just when she picked up the chopsticks and was about to enjoy it, a stranger sat down opposite her.
There were crooks and honest people mixed in here. She was a woman, so she would naturally be harassed by some people.
She lowered her head and didn't want to let this kind of person ruin her rare good mood.
Unexpectedly, her temporary concession didn't exchange for the other party's understanding. Instead, the man boldly moved to sit beside her.
Just when she was about to scold him, a slightly trembling voice begged, which immediately made Lin Mengya stop.
"Please help me …"
Judging from the voice, it should be a man.
Lin Mengya could smell the fresh scent of blood under the cover of all kinds of smells because she was getting closer to the source of the smell.
Lin Mengya pretended that nothing had happened. She exchanged a look with the man, only to find that he had a face that was extremely forbearing, but had no color at all.
The other party nodded at her. His pale lips tried hard to give her a kind smile, but in the end, it was a little difficult.
That person was dressed like an ordinary person. He had big eyes and sword-like eyebrows and was very handsome. However, his appearance was somewhat different from the men of the Great Jin. The space between his eyebrows was more delicate, and he looked especially scholarly.
"Are you hurt?"
His left hand was tightly covering a certain part of his waist. Lin Mengya took a look and knew that he was not in a good condition.
"Well, don't worry, I won't drag you down."
The man comforted her in a very low voice, but his eyes were vigilantly looking around, as if he was guarding against someone.
"Eat it. It can help you stop the bleeding."
Lin Mengya, who had no intention of meddling, actually did not want to get involved in this mess.
However, she was in a good mood, and sometimes, she wanted to be a good person.
She quietly took out a small medicine box that she always carried with her, took out a hemostatic medicine, and gave it to the man.
Then, she placed another bowl of wonton in front of the man.
"I won't hurt you. You can leave after you finish eating."
She did not want to be involved in too much karma. Moreover, even if she could stop the bleeding, it was still uncertain whether the man could escape.
The man was a little surprised. He looked at the pill in his hand, and then looked at Lin Mengya, who looked as if nothing had happened.
"Thank you."
He pursed his thin lips and finally squeezed out two simple words.
Using chopsticks to hide the pill in his hand, the man drank the medicine without hesitation with the chicken soup in his hand.
It seemed that the hot chicken soup had replenished the energy that he had lost.
Perhaps it was because his enemy had left temporarily.
Anyway, before Lin Mengya finished eating, the man disappeared into the crowd again.
Lin Mengya raised her head and looked around.
The crowd was still moving, as if nothing had happened just now.
"Strange."
Lin Mengya shook her head. If it were not for the smell of blood in the air, reminding her that there was indeed an injured man just now, she would have thought that she had seen wrongly.
She thought that her eyes were playing tricks on her.
"I'm back. Have a taste while it's hot … Did you see an acquaintance?"
Qinghu, who was full of enthusiasm, finally returned to Lin Mengya's side with big and small bags.
Seeing that she was looking around with a blank face, he also looked around subconsciously, and found that there was not a single familiar face, so he could not help but ask.
"No … no. It's just that someone seemed to have bumped into me just now. Maybe it was a playful child. "
He made up a facade and easily fooled this matter.
That person did not look like a native. Maybe he was a foreign businessman or something.
In short, the two of them might not see each other again. Why should she say it out and let everyone worry about it?
Lin Mengya, who had long forgotten the little episode, went to several stalls under Qinghu's instructions.
Lin Mengya smiled contentedly as she held her round belly in her hands.
In modern times, there was a small night market stall outside the hospital where she worked as an intern.
After the night shift, the tired colleagues would usually settle their uneaten dinner in the night market.
To be honest, she felt that among so many places in the Capital City, this was the only place with the most human touch.
"Look at you, you look like a pig."
Qinghu looked at her dotingly, and reached out to help her tidy up her slightly messy hair.
Looking at her blushing little face and her belly that was about to burst, Qinghu did not know why he felt a trace of warmth in his heart.
Perhaps it was because she had never felt even the slightest bit of disdain for her past.
In fact, this place used to be his cage, and it was also a lingering nightmare for him.
When he brought her to this place, perhaps he was still a little frightened.
If she asked about his dirty past, or showed a look of disgust for this place.
No matter what it was, he was afraid that those things would continue to be his troubles.
But he didn't expect that when he used another form of his past self in front of her, all he got in return was a smile from her.
There seemed to be something in his heart that was quietly withdrawing.
He, who had lived for most of his life, felt that even breathing became much easier for the first time.
"I can't help it. The food here is so delicious! It's much more delicious than the food cooked by the chef in our mansion. Let's do it again next time, okay? "
In her sparkling eyes, there was a sincere expectation.
Qinghu had no way to refuse, so he nodded gently. As expected, in return, she smiled with her eyes and eyebrows.
Coming out of the red-light district, Qinghu did not go far. He keenly sensed that the flies, which he had just gotten rid of for a night, had captured their position again.
Looking at his serious face again, Lin Mengya also stopped smiling.
After relaxing, she was afraid that there would be more difficult tests.
Be it for her or the Lin family. He didn't know what would happen in this perilous situation.
"Let's go home."
Once again, she returned to the battlefield. Once again, she returned to the vortex that was enough to devour people.
This was her fate. She could not get rid of it, so she could only struggle hard!
In the evening, Marquis Zhennan's mansion was still brightly lit.
As soon as Lin Mengya and Qinghu came back, they were anxiously welcomed into the room by Hongyu.
"What's wrong? Why are you so anxious? "
Lin Mengya sat calmly on the chair and asked Baizhi to share the food she had brought back with the others.
However, everyone had a gloomy and gloomy look on their faces. This was not their usual style.
"If I tell you about this, please don't be angry."
They pushed each other, and finally, Hongyu stood up and said cautiously.
"Tell me, what else can make me angry?"
Lin Mengya looked indifferent. Anyway, in her current situation, there was nothing to be angry about.
"That's good. In the evening, the emperor sent someone to pass an oral order, saying that — — to choose another princess for Your Highness."
Compared with Hongyu's embarrassment, Lin Mengya just snorted coldly. Then, she took out the wrapped hibiscus cake to tease Moyan, who was held in Ms. Tian's arms.
"I thought it was something important. What is the emperor's order? Does he want me to go back to the mansion to help with the work, or just to inform me?"
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows, as if she was not affected by this matter at all.
The others in the room did not dare to breathe loudly, for fear that they would hurt Lin Mengya's wound and make their master's current situation worse.
"Just to inform you. After all, you are now the concubine of Prince Yu's Mansion."
Hongyu bit the bullet and tactfully conveyed the emperor's attitude to Lin Mengya.
In fact, the original words of the oral order were to reprimand Lin Mengya for being willful and reckless as a concubine. Therefore, he wanted to find a more powerful princess to rectify the misconduct in Prince Yu's Mansion.
To put it bluntly, this was another means of punishment for Lin Mengya.
After all, it was impossible for the emperor not to know that although she moved out of Prince Yu's Mansion, Long Tianyu had to stay in Marquis Zhennan's Mansion every night.
If this went on, his imperial edict would become a joke.
If others were to find out, where would he put his face?
Therefore, marrying a powerful princess could, on the one hand, tie Long Tianyu down and make him restrain himself. On the other hand, it could also help his son.
