"What do you mean? From what I can see, this young lady is quite suitable to be betrothed. Aren't you and Princess Yu being biased? "
King Ming pulled a long face. His eldest son's engagement had been snatched away by Prince Yu's maidservant.
Now, Princess Yu was meddling in the prince's marriage arrangement.
Although he was the king of the barbarians, he would not allow himself to be bullied.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya changed her attitude and said in a gentle voice, "Please forgive me, King Ming.
"Please forgive me, King Ming. It was all my fault. I forgot that the Second Prince didn't know the reason behind it. Please forgive me, King Ming."
Lin Mengya had figured out King Ming's temperament. He was a very reasonable person when he spoke to her in a friendly manner.
If she were to use force, she was afraid that he would be more unreasonable than anyone else.
The sudden change in Lin Mengya's attitude eased King Ming's expression.
After all, in terms of rank, the princess was not inferior to him.
"If I'm not satisfied with your explanation, Princess Yu, I'm afraid I won't be able to give you face."
King Ming's words were a little rude.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya was not angry. Instead, she smiled and walked slowly to Yue Ting's side.
"This Miss Yue is my future sister-in-law. At this point, everyone in the State of Jin knew about it. Moreover, it had been approved by the Emperor. It's understandable that the Second Prince was unaware of this. However, this concerns my brother's reputation, so I spoke too harshly. Please forgive me, King Ming. "
King Ming's expression changed at Lin Mengya's words.
He turned to look at his second son and a flash of emotion flashed across his eyes.
However, when he turned back to look at Lin Mengya, the expression on his face disappeared.
"In that case, Nan was being too rude. Since it's the emperor's order, we shouldn't go against it. Nan, let's forget about the concubine selection. "
Although King Ming seemed to be easy to talk to, he was actually a decisive decision maker in the western vassal state.
This could be seen from the way his two sons treated their father.
Yue Ting held Lin Mengya's hand tightly and finally realized what was going on.
"Wait! Although the Yue Clan's Young Mistress is engaged to the Lin Clan's Young Master, now that the Lin Clan's Young Master is guarding the borders, wouldn't it be bad if he delayed the Yue Clan's Young Mistress? "
The Crown Prince said softly. It seemed like he was doing this for Yue Ting's sake.
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and was about to retort when Long Tianhao spoke first.
"The soldiers are stationed at the borders, and it's extremely hard for them to sleep and eat in the wild. I heard that during the Battle of Fangjia Dam, Lin Nansheng took the lead and narrowly escaped death for our army to achieve victory. Right now, the soldiers are still at the border, but your fiancée has been snatched away by someone else. Could it be that the Crown Prince is not afraid of disappointing the soldiers? "
Long Tianhao's words made the eyes of many generals who had returned to the capital to report on their work or retire, red.
Back then, they fought on the battlefield.
Some missed seeing their elderly mothers for the last time, while others had to send off their children.
There was also another person. Back then, there was a plague in his hometown. More than a dozen family members were all seriously ill in bed.
At that time, he was only a few hundred miles away from home, but in order to protect the country, he missed seeing his family for the last time.
Now, the father and son of the Lin family were stationed at the borders, fighting against the enemies, and living a hard life.
However, for the sake of his own personal interests, the Crown Prince wanted to use the fiancée of the Lin family as a marriage proposal. This was simply disappointing to the soldiers!
At that moment, a few senior officials looked at the Crown Prince with disapproval. There was a hint of accusation in their eyes.
The Crown Prince suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing!
Yue Ting held Lin Mengya's hand tightly. Her face had turned pale because of fear.
In her life, it had always been simple and beautiful.
She had hoped that her lover, the handsome young general, would come riding on a horse to marry her.
Little did she expect that she would be chosen by the second prince of a foreign country. At that moment, she was so frightened that she broke out in tears.
"Ya 'er, Ya' er, what … what should I do?"
Lin Mengya patted her trembling hands and comforted her softly.
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one will be able to force you into a marriage proposal."
Yue Qi looked at her sister helplessly. Her big round eyes were filled with tears.
How did this happen to her poor sister?
"Let's talk about this another time. The Crown Prince was just careless. Prince Yu, don't make a big deal out of it."
At last, the Queen stood up and said these words.
In her heart, she reprimanded her son.
From the moment the Crown Prince said those words, the Queen felt a sense of anger.
This good-for-nothing! She had nurtured him for more than 20 years, but he was always such a good-for-nothing.
The foundation of the stability of the country was the army that was fighting wars outside.
In those years, the ancestors of the country were able to establish Dajin by wearing the imperial robe. They used their prestige in the army to make the previous emperor abdicate.
If they were to disappoint the soldiers now, it would be equivalent to destroying the destiny of Dajin.
Although the Crown Prince was unwilling, he did not dare to say anything more.
"Forget it, Lu Nan is too insensible. Don't worry, Princess Yu. The western vassal state would never kidnap someone else's wife and child."
That Ming Wang was a heroic figure. He was flexible and meticulous.
Lin Mengya nodded and went back to her seat after comforting Yue Ting.
The moment she sat down, she could feel the Crown Prince and the Queen staring at her, as if they were going to dig a hole in her.
But so what?
From the moment they plotted against her and forced her to become Princess Yu, they were already mortal enemies. They would not rest until one of them was dead!
The banquet continued, but Concubine De made an excuse that she was having a headache and brought Lin Mengya back to Prince Yu's Mansion.
The Queen was busy trying to repair her relationship with King Ming, or to pave the way for their next plot, so she did not stop them.
Lin Mengya sat in the horse carriage with Baishao, who was still in a state of shock.
"It was so dangerous at the banquet just now! Master, you were a little too impulsive and scared me to death. "
Baishao patted her chest and looked at her master worriedly.
She did not believe that her master was bold. Now it seemed that it was true.
The Crown Prince, the Queen, and the court full of civil and military officials. She was out of breath just by standing there.
She could not believe that her master could take turns to engage in a battle of words. She was extraordinarily brave!
"If you are reasonable, you can go anywhere in the world. If you are unreasonable, you will not be able to do anything. We have the courtesy, why not fight for it?"
She had taken a risk today. If this was a small banquet, she would not have gotten what she wanted so easily.
But this time, it was a big banquet with all the officials.
Not to mention that the Crown Prince and the Queen did not dare to act rashly, even if they did not care about their reputation, they would still force Yue Ting to marry them.
Tomorrow, this matter would be spread all over the State of Jin.
By then, they would not be able to bear the consequences.
"That's reasonable, but the palace is not a place to be reasonable! Look at what the Crown Prince said today. It's obvious that he will not take the engagement between Eldest Young Master and Miss Yue seriously. I'm worried … "
Baishao's words were not unreasonable.
Lin Mengya closed her eyes to rest, but her mind was racing.
The Crown Prince and the Empress, this pair of mother and son, could only be described as ruthless.
Today, she had plucked the whiskers of the tiger.
New troubles and old grievances. It was going to be another fierce battle!
It was silent in the carriage. Baishao threw a few incense baits into the incense burner by her feet.
Immediately, a calming fragrance rose faintly from the carriage.
Lin Mengya suddenly opened her eyes and pulled Baishao to hide in a corner.
"Master? What's wrong? "
Baishao, who was at a loss, had no idea what was going on. Before she could react, the sound of fighting came from outside.
"Shh!"
Lin Mengya lowered her finger, so that Baishao would not make a sound.
The two of them hid in the most solid corner of the carriage and tried their best to hide their bodies.
Sure enough, after the sound of arrows being fired, their windows were full of sharp arrowheads.
Baishao was scared out of her wits and snuggled in Lin Mengya's arms.
What an arrogant group of people. How could they plot against her before she returned to the mansion?
"Your Highness …"
The guards outside the carriage did not expect that those people would be so difficult to deal with.
However, there was no movement from within the carriages. Instead, they charged forward to fight with their enemies, their eyes bloodshot.
The men in black kept trying to board the carriage to investigate the situation inside, but they were all stopped by the guards.
"Brothers, kill!"
Seeing that the carriage had become a porcupine, the eyes of the guards were red with killing intent.
Since the princess took charge of the mansion, they had been treated better.
It was not that the prince did not treat them well, but the princess was more considerate and considerate. Therefore, all the guards thought of the princess's benefits.
In addition, they were all soldiers, so they would naturally fight with their lives for their mission.
But they were outnumbered and gradually, they were at a disadvantage.
Finally, two men in black tried to get on the horse in the chaos. The white machetes in their hands were shining with a bloodthirsty light.
But when they opened the curtain, they did not see any trace of Lin Mengya.
How could it be?
Just when they were about to search, they heard footsteps coming from not far away.
Only an army that had undergone formal training would have such uniform footsteps. Seeing that the situation was not good, the men in black whistled and left in a hurry.
Unexpectedly, those people came and left so quickly. When the Yulin Guards arrived at the scene, there were only corpses on the ground.
"Your Highness! Let's see how the princess is! "
The crisis was over, and the guards of the mansion immediately ran to the carriage.
The body of the porcupine was still very strong. But when they opened the curtain, they did not see the princess at first glance.
"Where is the princess? Has the princess been taken away? "
When the guards were about to chase the men in black, they suddenly heard a cry of pain coming from the carriage.
