After hesitating for a long while, Lin Mengya realized that Baisu would not tell her the truth so easily. She suddenly sighed.
"Since you won't tell me, I'll ask him myself."
Having said that, Lin Mengya got up and was about to leave the room.
Baisu anxiously stood in front of Lin Mengya. Her beautiful face was filled with struggle.
"Miss, Young Master is doing this for your own good! The fact that you saved the young master in the State of Jin has been exposed by someone with ulterior motives. Although they don't know your real identity, they know that Young Master cares about his sister the most. She is the one who saved him in Dajin. So … so Young Master … "
Lin Mengya frowned slightly and stared at Baisu. She could not back down.
"So Xiao Yu made use of this banquet to swap my identity with Ning Qiu's, right? Who asked you to do that? Don't you know that you're just pushing Ning Qiu into a pit of fire? "
Previously, they had discussed the plan to let Ning Qiu pretend to be Madam Jingrou's daughter.
Because Xin Luan was on their side, it was not difficult to carry out the plan even though it was difficult.
Now Xiao Yu wanted to mix up the two identities, which undoubtedly diverted all the attention to Ning Qiu.
Becoming a Gu Lady was already fraught with danger.
In this way, there would be people who would try to get rid of Ning Qiu.
No, she couldn't do that!
"Miss, I know you've always been clear about what you like and what you hate. You'd never do something like using an innocent person as your scapegoat. But this is the best way. Not only the Xin Family, but almost everyone who is eyeing that position wants to get their hands on you to threaten Young Master. Ning Qiu also agreed to this matter. Moreover, once Ning Qiu becomes the Gu Witch of the Xin Family, the Xin Family will do their best to protect her. "
Baisu knelt down on the ground. Lin Mengya shook her head, but there was a trace of disappointment in her eyes.
"I've never been a pedantic person. I understand the so-called righteousness. But Baisu, the righteousness that comes at the expense of others is never the true righteousness. If you can't even protect the person in front of you, if you can't even keep your promise, what righteousness is that? I don't want that kind of heartless protection, and I don't want a big shot who would sacrifice others for his own safety. I am me, Ning Qiu is also Ning Qiu, our lives are equal, there is no distinction between us. I beg to differ. So please move aside now, I cannot watch Ning Qiu and Xiao Yu do stupid things together. "
Baisu looked into Lin Mengya's eyes. At this moment, Lin Mengya was emotionless.
She lowered her head and suppressed her sadness.
How could she not know Lin Mengya's character? That was why the young master had given her the task of guarding Lin Mengya.
But in the end, she could not refuse the young miss, could not disobey the young miss's orders.
Baisu stood up and turned sideways. She lowered her head, but her eyes were filled with determination.
"Baisu, if you feel uncomfortable, you can stay here. I'll be fine with Qinghu accompanying me. "
He knew that what he said just now might have been a little harsh, and he also knew that Baisu did it for his own good.
But Baisu shook her head and said,
"No, Miss is right. In fact, I also know why we were so loyal to you in the beginning. Because we knew that after we followed you, you would treat us as your family, and you would never abandon us at will. This is also the most admirable thing about you, so no matter where you go, Baisu will follow you. "
Lin Mengya was slightly stunned, and then the corners of her mouth curled up, revealing a smile.
Yes, perhaps in the eyes of others, she was a fool.
But a fool also had his merits, didn't he?
"Hey, you and your servant are having such a good time, why don't you bring me along?"
The door of the room was gently pushed open, and Qinghu looked at Lin Mengya in front of him with a smile on his face.
Although he knew that his little girl was very stubborn, he liked her stubbornness.
"You are everywhere, but since you are here, I have a better way to sneak into the banquet. Let's not delay, let's go. "
In Yushan County, the most powerful force was not the royal family, nor was it some jianghu force.
It was the famous Xin Family in the whole Lieyun County.
The banquet of the Xin Family attracted the attention of the slightly powerful people in Yushan County.
But the theme of today's banquet was to welcome a special person.
The ninth prince, Wanyan Yu, was the only prince who grew up among the common people, but he had a very strong supporter.
In the Guluo Gathering a while ago, he almost defeated all the poisonous insects brought by the princes with an overwhelming advantage.
People couldn't help comparing this rising star with the famous eldest prince, Wanyan Jing.
However, what was surprising was that the Ninth Prince's venomous insect was no weaker than Wanyan Jing's. In fact, it might even be stronger!
This discovery made Wanyan Yu's name gradually spread throughout the whole Lieyun County.
Now the Xin Family was going to entertain such a new person, which made people's imagination run wild.
But the Xin Family had already announced that the ninth prince was here for official business.
In this way, those people with ulterior motives couldn't find any evidence to frame the Xin Family.
The night was intoxicating. When Lin Mengya and the other two arrived at the Xin Family, there was already a burst of decadent sounds coming from inside.
At the gate, there were many guards patrolling and protecting it. It was impossible for random people to even get close to it, let alone enter.
"These people are not too troublesome. Lass, do you want me to get rid of them?"
Hiding in the corner, Qinghu's eyes flashed with coldness.
But Baisu immediately stopped him and said in a low voice, "Don't underestimate the Xin Family.
Almost all the masters of poisonous insects in the whole Lieyun County are gathered in the Xin Family. You see, these guards are not good at martial arts, but they all have different kinds of poisonous insects with them. As long as they have any abnormalities, the people inside will know immediately. I'm afraid we'll be in trouble then. "
Hearing Baisu's introduction, Lin Mengya smiled, as if she didn't care.
"Miss, do you have a good plan?"
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and looked at the beautiful and coquettish figures quickly disappearing behind the vermilion gate. She had an idea.
"Why don't we do this?"
Today, the old house of the Xin Family was full of guests, and it was very lively.
The banquet was held in an open-air garden. The elders of the Xin Family sat at the head of the table, and beside them was the Ninth Prince of the Lieyun Kingdom, Wanyan Yu.
However, at this moment, Wanyan Yu, who always had a calm expression on her face, unconsciously cast her gaze towards the woman who was sitting quietly in the middle of the banquet.
She thought that no one could see her, but she didn't expect that all her little moves had been seen by others.
"I didn't expect that so many years have passed, and Rou 'er's child has grown up. Is your mother used to living in the palace? "
Sitting on the left of Wanyan Yu was the current head of the Xin Family, Xin Mu.
According to seniority, he should be Xin Luan's cousin, and also Madam Jingrou's brother.
Originally, the head of the Xin Family was Madam Jingrou's brother.
But because 20 years ago, he failed to take care of his sister, his position as the head of the Xin Family was taken away.
But he was very powerful, and even if he wasn't the head of the Xin Family, he was the most influential elder in the family.
Since Xin Mu was his brother, he naturally had to listen to him.
So now, the Xin Family was still in the hands of Madam Jingrou's brother.
But to Xiao Yu, it made no difference.
"Thank you for your concern, Head of the Xin Family. My mother is doing well. It's just that she often thinks of the time she spent here. After all, this used to be her family. "
When Xiao Yu smiled, he looked elegant and refined. He did not look like the cold and heartless Ninth Prince in the rumors.
Xin Mu, on the other hand, showed a meaningful smile, but the expression on his face became even more affectionate.
"That's right. Back then, us siblings were also naive and lively. But I am still the uncle of the Ninth Prince, so you don't have to be so formal. What happened to your mother is already in the past, so you don't have to be so formal. "
In the past? How could it be so simple?
Wanyan Yu laughed coldly in her heart, but on the surface, she became more obedient and polite.
"Uncle is right, I am being too formal. But why don't I see First Uncle? Could it be that First Uncle still blames me, his nephew? "
Of course, Wanyan Yu knew that the only person who had the final say in this family was that mysterious First Uncle.
But he had already been here for a few days, why didn't he see the Xin Family Elder?
"Not at all, your First Uncle and your mother have the best relationship, how could he blame you! It's just that these few days, he heard that you were coming and got excited, causing some problems with his voodoo technique. It will be fine in three to five days, you don't have to worry. "
Excited? He looked more like he was agitated.
Xiao Yu was not in a hurry to ask, but after chatting with this Second Uncle for a while, she continued the previous topic.
"Speaking of which, First Uncle and Second Uncle have never met me before. Now that I have met Second Uncle, I feel like I have met a family member. I just don't know if First Uncle is as easygoing as Second Uncle? "
Along the way, Xiao Yu felt one thing.
In fact, everyone in the Xin family held quite a bit of enmity towards him.
The source of this enmity was probably because his mother abandoned her identity as a voodoo woman and chose to be with his father.
But how could he be afraid?
