His father hadn't been to his mother's palace for a long time. Even if he went there, he would just discuss some affairs in the harem and then rush back to the imperial study.
He didn't understand it before, but since he was connected with Ya 'er, he could see the sadness in his mother's eyes. She pretended to be strong.
At the same time, Long Tianhao began to doubt his father's words.
Why was it that as an emperor, he was destined to be ruthless to the people around him?
But if he couldn't protect the people around him, how could he bring blessings to the world and the people?
Even Long Tianhao himself did not notice that because of his love for Lin Mengya, his heart of great love was gradually perfecting.
This could only be fully revealed with the passage of time.
At least for now, he didn't realize it.
"His Majesty is busy every day, so he wouldn't notice such a small thing. Besides, what happened to my brother made my father feel guilty. By the way, since you can come out, who is helping you to deal with your affairs? "
Lin Mengya knew that Long Tianhao wouldn't doubt her words at all.
In fact, she trusted Long Tianhao as well.
It was because she had now seen through the emperor's attitude towards the Lin family.
For the safety of her family, she had to tell a little lie.
Her father and brother were going back to their hometown, but they would immediately set off for the Nation of Lintian.
Of course, with Hongyu's suggestion, Lin Mengya had already found a way for her father and brother to escape.
By then, her father and brother could secretly go to the Nation of Lintian, and they would be safe under the care of the two cousins of the Zuo family.
Moreover, they had always wanted to see the place where her mother used to live.
This time, they could just take it as a revisit.
"Don't worry, Qinghan and Yi are in the capital city. With the two of them together, nothing would go wrong. And my father seems to know that I'm out this time. As soon as I left the capital city, someone sent an edict to the mansion. It said that my father wants me to meditate for a few months, so that I can be the chief priest on the 16th of June. "
Chief priest? Lin Mengya looked at Long Tianhao with a puzzled face.
The ancestral worship ceremony was not a small matter. Last year, Long Tianhao was just an ordinary prince attending the ceremony in the ancestral temple.
Moreover, if there were no accidents, the person in charge of the ceremony would either be the current emperor or the crown prince.
The last time the Emperor was ill, it was the Crown Prince who presided over the funeral.
She did not expect that Long Tianhao would be the one to be the chief priest this time.
Lin Mengya always felt that something was wrong. In the past 20 years, the Emperor was still able to restrain his love for his son and gave Long Tianhao the deepest training.
This time, why —
"Is there anything strange about the Crown Prince?"
As soon as Lin Mengya asked, Long Tianhao reached out his hand and gently stroked her little head.
A helpless and doting smile appeared on his face.
"Do you have so little confidence in me? My wife is indeed formidable, but I, your husband, am not easy to deal with either. The most important thing now is to take good care of your body. Otherwise, when would I become a father? Qinghan had married a young princess a few days ago. We also have to work hard. "
Did Long Qinghan have a daughter? Lin Mengya opened her mouth slightly and her expression seemed to freeze.
Then, a blush appeared on her cheeks.
She rolled her eyes at Long Tianhao coquettishly. She did not know where he learned this bad behavior from.
Now, he even dared to tease her with such words.
"Ahem, aren't you talking about serious matters? Let's talk about flirting later. Now we are in the territory of the Kingdom of Dongxia. Lass, we have to be careful. "
His untimely interruption helped Lin Mengya out of her predicament.
To be honest, she could deal with any situation. Even if the Emperor wanted to choose another marriage for her husband, she would be able to handle it calmly.
But when it came to childbirth, she was still a little helpless.
Moreover, this body of hers was at most less than 20 years old.
Although she was at the age of pregnancy in ancient times, she was not young enough.
Moreover, when she saw Ms. Tian giving birth that day, it was really a narrow escape from death.
Although she was a modern doctor, she still felt that it was necessary to be fully prepared for childbirth.
It was one thing to look like it was one thing, but it was another thing to give birth.
"Yes … yes. Don't be angry with Hou Yuetian anymore. After all, we are in the Kingdom of Dongxia. Qinghu said that he can help us. Just treat it as if it's for me. Can you not argue with him anymore? "
Following Qinghu's change of topic, Lin Mengya used her killer move and acted coquettishly to Long Tianhao.
Sure enough, Long Tianhao, who looked unhappy just now, was stunned for a moment and nodded subconsciously.
"Okay, then it's a deal. We will arrive in Jiang City in a few days. The fleet needs to rest, so do we. "
Seeing that Long Tianhao took the bait, Lin Mengya smiled and felt much better.
Although she was not very confident about Jiang City, she was at least in the Kingdom of Dongxia. The closer she could get to it, the more hope she had for survival.
She tilted her head and looked out of the window. They were going downstream from the lake that connected the two countries.
They arrived in another country in the time it took to say a few words.
The customs of the Kingdom of Dongxia were very similar to that of the Jin State. Maybe it was because the waterways were very developed.
Therefore, the people here all looked especially lively.
The water in the river and lake was different from the water in the sea.
Compared with the rough and unrestrained people of the Nation of Lintian, the people of the Kingdom of Dongxia felt more like the water town of Jiangnan.
Or perhaps, modern Venice. It was just that it was more lively and lively, less stable and quiet.
Along the way, they met many peddlers who were hawking their goods on the ship.
Because they were in the territory of the Kingdom of Dongxia, Hou Yuetian's ship was ahead of them.
The small boat was leading the big ship in front, so that they, the outsiders, could enjoy the beautiful scenery of the foreign land.
Even Qinghu quietened down. He accompanied Lin Mengya and quietly watched everything outside the window.
"What a beautiful and peaceful place. Can you imagine that there was a civil war here not long ago? But everything here is like the surface of the water that has been split by a paddle. Even if it is muddy, it can still be restored to its original state in a very short time. After the ripples, it seems that nothing has happened. "
When Lin Mengya was in the Dajin State or the Nation of Lintian, the people she met had changed more or less because of the turmoil in the court.
But in the Kingdom of Dongxia, she could not see that there had been a civil war.
She wondered what kind of person the new king of the Kingdom of Dongxia was.
"Miss Qingge, do you like it here?"
Outside the cabin, Hou Yuetian slowly walked into the cabin with a faint smile on his face.
He greeted the people in the cabin one by one, even including Long Tianhao, who he had just quarreled with.
After greeting Lin Mengya politely, he walked up to Lin Mengya and explained the customs of the Kingdom of Dongxia to her.
"Yes, of course I like it. I didn't expect that there would be such beautiful scenery here. "
Lin Mengya nodded and returned his greeting.
She looked out of the window and saw that the residents here had built small buildings with simple shapes on the surface of the water.
They did not have the beauty of modern artists, nor did they have an exaggerated sense of luxury.
However, the house built with bamboo and stone had a beauty that could calm people's hearts.
The mottled walls, which were covered with vines, brought vitality to the shabby old houses.
Occasionally, there was a narrow waterway and a gray stone arch bridge. It was unknown how many years it had been there.
The people of the Kingdom of Dongxia were like characters in a painting.
They were small, but indispensable, and not the same.
Now she wished that she had a brush in her hand, so that she could paint the scenery in front of her.
Such a beautiful scene comforted her slightly anxious heart.
"This is the best. If there is a chance, Miss Qingge, you can stay here for a long time. The people of the Kingdom of Dongxia are passionate and curious, especially to people like you, who are gentle and warm-hearted. "
Gentle? Warm-Hearted?
Qinghu and Long Tianhao looked at each other at the same time. The gloating look in each other's eyes was obvious.
He was afraid that this lass would only maintain a weak and pitiful look in front of others.
One had to know that in their social circle, there was no one else.
Lin Mengya's notoriety was no less than theirs.
Long Tianhao could not help but look at Hou Yuetian with some pity. He was afraid that when his wife showed her beautiful little trick, this guy would be scared out of his wits.
"If there's a chance, I will."
Lin Mengya said politely, but her eyes were very subtle. She gave the two men a warning each.
Don't think that she didn't notice that Hou Yuetian had only praised her once.
Is there a need to act like this?
Although she didn't like to be a pitiful saint, in essence, she was indeed a kind person, right?
In some ways, it was true.
"Of course that's good. Since Miss Qingge is looking for medicine in the Eastern Summer Country, why don't you stay here for a few more days? Compared to Dajin, the Eastern Summer Country is more suitable for you to recuperate. "
Hearing that Miss Qingge liked this place, Hou Yuetian was even more excited.
He couldn't help feeling happy. Such a smart girl, the Empress Mother would like her.
Compared to the young ladies of the big families, he preferred this young lady with excellent medical skills and was also very intelligent.
In fact, he had accidentally overheard Miss Qingge's words just now.
