"What did you say? Let me go! Are you trying to rebel? I'm the wife of His Majesty. How dare you offend me! I'm going back to the palace to see His Majesty and sentence you to death! "
Madam Hui was not in a hurry. She looked awe-inspiring and inviolable.
Lin Mengya looked around, but still did not find anyone suspicious.
Madam Hui's psychological quality was too strong, wasn't it?
However, Lin Mengya was not in a hurry to expose her. Instead, she ordered her servants to forcibly invite Madam Hui into the courtyard.
The plaque outside the courtyard was only engraved with the words "Simple House".
The courtyard was a little shabby. It seemed that no one had lived here for a long time.
Although it was not as good as the palace, it was an extremely quiet and elegant place to reflect on one's mistakes.
It was a good match for Madam Hui, who was impatient.
"Madam, you're exaggerating. How dare I offend you? However, I'm carrying His Majesty's imperial edict, so I have to obey it. Go and ask for His Majesty's imperial edict, lest Madam Hui misunderstand us servants. "
Lin Mengya stood there calmly, with a smile on her face and a kind attitude.
Madam Hui was shocked. Her sudden appearance had been kept a secret in advance.
Why did His Majesty's imperial edict appear at this time?
Madam Hui suddenly had a bad premonition.
She took a few steps back, but she didn't expect that someone had already blocked her path of retreat.
"Where are you going, Madam? This is His Majesty's imperial edict. Don't you want to listen to it? "
Lin Mengya took a few steps forward leisurely. Although she was not aggressive, it made Madam Jingrou a little nervous.
Someone soon brought His Majesty's imperial edict. Madam Hui could not help but gasp when she saw the dark yellow envelope sealed with wax.
This was a dragon-patterned paper that was only used for secret edicts. Everyone who received this secret edict was either executed or imprisoned for life.
No! His Majesty would not treat her like this!
Madam Hui, who had always been as calm as a mountain, finally panicked. Lin Mengya did not want to see the woman's expression when all her hopes were destroyed.
Therefore, he turned his head and pretended that nothing had happened.
"According to the secret order of the king, from today onwards, Madam Hui will be responsible for guarding the cemetery and comforting the spirits of the ancestors. She is not allowed to step out of the simple house for the rest of her life. Anyone who disobeys will be executed on the spot!"
The eunuch who read out the secret order was an old man by the king's side.
Moreover, Lin Mengya didn't have to worry that Madam Hui would pretend to agree but oppose her in secret, because everyone here, including the palace maids and guards, would stay here to take care of Madam Hui.
"No! His Majesty would never be so heartless to me! It's all your fault! It's your master, that woman! It must be her scheme, it must be! "
Madam Hui was enraged. No matter who it was, if they were to be imprisoned in this small world forever, they would resist.
But how many successful precedents could there be in a cornered beast's struggle?
"You don't have to be so anxious. In fact, His Majesty is still thinking about you. These palace maids and guards will stay here to accompany you. Oh, right. Every other month, they would rotate. Don't worry, they will definitely bring you the liveliest and freshest news in the palace. Whatever you want to know, someone will tell you. "
Lin Mengya's back was facing Madam Hui, but her tone made Madam Hui shudder.
Her words proved that this decree was indeed the will of the King.
No! No way! His Majesty would never treat her like this!
"You're lying! His Majesty and I have been husband and wife for many years. He would never treat me like this! And your master, she owes me. I want to go back to the palace! I don't want to spend the rest of my life alone in this damn place. I want to go back to the palace! "
Madam Hui's voice was a little tough, but in Lin Mengya's ears, it sounded more like she was pretending to be calm and guilty.
Turning around, Lin Mengya only felt that this woman was too ridiculous.
"Do you really think that some things can be kept from others for a lifetime? Or could it be that even you have forgotten the truth? "
She lowered her voice so that only the two of them could hear her clearly.
Lin Mengya stared at Madam Hui. She finally saw a crack in her eyes.
"There's one more thing, it seems that I have to tell you. His Majesty and my wife have reconciled. Do you understand, Madam? "
Perhaps Yao Lu's willfulness had blinded the eyes of the empress.
But at least the king had treated her with sincerity.
This was probably one of the reasons why Yao Lu was enlightened.
She couldn't blame anyone else for missing out on that relationship.
However, the woman in front of him was a complete joke.
The king might have had feelings for Yao Lu, but Lin Mengya felt that it was more of a kind of dependence on someone who helped each other in times of need.
Therefore, the king tolerated Yao Lu's willfulness and made his beloved suffer a lot.
To Madam Jingrou, the king was like magma under layers of ice. Even if he appeared cold, he still could not hide his surging and fervent love for her.
It was a kind of love between a man and a woman that could not be described in words.
The king would do anything for Madam Jingrou.
Including doting on a woman he did not like at all.
On this point, Yao Lu was actually clearer than Madam Hui about it.
"Impossible … impossible! It's that woman who killed my child! If my child was still here, His Majesty would never abandon me. It's that woman's fault, it's all her fault! "
Even now, Madam Hui was still as stubborn as before.
Lin Mengya withdrew her burning gaze. These days, she had seen too many people who refused to come to their senses.
Madam Hui was not the first, but she would not be the last.
Comparing stupidity, this woman could be ranked in the top three.
"Don't be silly. Young Messenger Yao told me everything before she died. You treat her as a fool, but have you ever thought that she was born in an aristocratic family and was originally a smart person? How could she be completely deceived by you? Madam Hui, you'd better behave yourself and stay here. You should have enjoyed your blessings in the palace for all these years. That position is beyond your reach. "
It was getting late, and Lin Mengya did not want to continue arguing with the woman in front of her.
She walked briskly out of the door of the simple house with Baisu. No matter what was going on behind them, it had nothing to do with her.
"Baisu, how delusional do you think people have to be to twist the truth into what they want?"
In the carriage back to the city, Lin Mengya looked at the simple house on the hillside and said softly to herself.
"I don't know."
Baisu had always been a person who knew things clearly. Of course, she could not imagine such a thing.
"Yes, a simple-minded person like you certainly can't imagine it."
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and could not help but praise Baisu from the bottom of her heart.
Madam Hui's matter was very simple. When the king met Madam Jingrou, he did not have any romantic feelings at first.
But Madam Hui, who was still a maid at that time, fell in love with the handsome king.
Later, the king brought Madam Jingrou into the palace. At first, it was to treat Yao Lu. But later, the king and Madam Jingrou developed sincere feelings for each other.
As time passed, Yao Lu's jealousy became second nature and she repeatedly attacked Madam Jing Rou.
At this time, Madam Hui took the initiative to give herself to the king. Therefore, the king took advantage of Madam Hui and made her the target of public criticism.
Although Madam Hui was favored by the king, she was even more delusional. She wanted to be the most honorable queen in the palace.
Therefore, she wanted to use a child to trap the king.
However, after Madam Jingrou, the king did not want any woman to have his child.
Madam Hui's child was fake.
What happened next could only be said to be a freak accident.
At that time, the people around Yao Lu wanted to get rid of the so-called child of Madam Hui and frame Madam Jingrou.
Madam Jingrou did not know and was really deceived by Madam Hui.
Yao Lu sensed that something was wrong. However, in order to make Madam Hui work for her, she chose to hide the truth.
Therefore, all the misunderstandings were caused by this.
Madam Jingrou still remembered the old friendship, so she felt that she killed Madam Hui's child.
The king wanted to protect Madam Jingrou, and he was not good at explaining, so the relationship between them became more and more delicate.
Yao Lu wanted Madam Jingrou to suffer like this, and at the same time, she and Madam Hui used each other.
For her own purpose, Madam Hui kept twisting the truth to provoke Madam Jingrou.
Everything was so simple and full of steaming hot dog blood.
Before Yao Lu left, she finally filled the last link for Lin Mengya.
However, there was one thing that she did not understand.
Why was Madam Hui chosen by the eldest prince to be his backup in the palace?
If she wanted to make the eldest prince lose his mind, she had to disrupt all his arrangements.
For example, the news of young messenger Yao's funeral today. Although the palace had issued a gag order, the eldest prince's people could still know under the king's careful arrangement.
Wanyan Jing did not know, so he did not dare to show up.
The Yao Family was in danger now. After thinking about it, only Madam Hui was the most suitable candidate.
It was also the best time to return to the palace. Therefore, Lin Mengya and Madam Jingrou had prepared for it and asked the king to prepare this secret edict.
If Madam Hui was trapped in the simple house, she, as a chess piece, would be useless.
As for the next step, Lin Mengya was prepared.
However, she still could not understand why Madam Hui did not even have a backup plan.
She really did not know whether Madam Hui was too confident or they had a backup plan.
"Forget it. Let's go back early. There are a lot of things to deal with in the palace. I guess Xiaoyu will not be so simple. "
Lin Mengya shrugged. This matter was temporarily over.
