There was a hidden meaning in the words of the chief palace maid. When Lin Mengya wanted to ask further, they had arrived at the small courtyard where they had hidden before.
Under the cover of Baisu and the palace maid, the two quickly returned to the small courtyard.
Although it was freezing outside, the two little palace maids slept soundly because of Lin Mengya's cotton-padded clothes and cloak.
Although they had rolled in the snow before, in His Majesty's room, the cotton-padded clothes had been smoked dry by the charcoal fire.
Baisu unsealed the acupoints of the two girls and comforted them with a few words. After instructing them not to make a sound, she secretly escorted them away.
The white cloak was an excellent camouflage in the snow.
Lin Mengya carefully hid in the corner. On her chest was the secret edict given to her by Emperor Jinyuan, but in her mind, she was thinking about the words of the palace maid.
She didn't know why, but she always felt that the extraordinary palace maid would meet her again.
There was a slight sound of footsteps beside her, and Lin Mengya immediately hid in the corner vigilantly. It was not until she saw that it was Baisu who had returned that she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Have they all been sent back?"
Baisu nodded. The two little palace maids were clever.
And when they arrived at the imperial kitchen, the palace maid had already quietly arranged everything, and no one doubted it.
"The sister said that although the Crown Prince blocked the palace, there are so many people in the palace, and they need to eat and drink after all. And the Crown Prince specially said that in addition to the Central Palace, only our Ningqing Palace must be given preferential treatment. "
Hearing this, Lin Mengya just raised the corner of her mouth.
The Crown Prince had a big dream in his heart, but he was not bold enough.
She was afraid that he really believed her nonsense. As the saying went, like father, like son.
This pair of father and son were the same. They thought they were smart and they thought they could figure out everyone's thoughts clearly.
They didn't know that the most difficult thing to master in the world was the human heart.
They returned to Ningqing Palace without anyone noticing. As soon as they entered the room, Imperial Noble Consort Dehui walked over quickly.
She took Lin Mengya's cold little hand and looked her up and down worriedly.
"You little brat, why didn't you tell me? It's so chaotic outside, how can you be hurt? "
The imperial gui fei's face was a little pale. The silver charcoal in the room was burning brightly, but it wasn't cold. It must be because she was worried about her.
Lin Mengya smiled apologetically.
"I've made Imperial Mother worry, but the Imperial Palace is not a dangerous place for us. But during the time I was gone, did anyone come to visit? "
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to the inner hall together. Except for Aunt Jinyue who was making tea, there was no trace of anyone else.
Presumably, they were protecting him in secret, just like the people Lin Mengya brought.
In fact, apart from the Inner Hall, the other rooms in Ning Qing Hall were also equipped with charcoal basins.
This way, they would not freeze to death, and it would also make it easier for them to hide.
Lin Mengya cherished her own strength very much. She would never do something like injuring her enemy at the cost of her own strength.
"Who else would come? Oh right, what's the situation in the other palaces? Especially Consort Xian. Just like us, she doesn't get along with the Empress. Now, I'm afraid that she will be killed. "
Imperial Noble Consort Dehui frowned, and there was deep worry in her deep affection.
She had been hinted by the two children before, so she was prepared.
But in order to ensure the safety of the plan, she did not tell others.
"The Crown Prince should not do anything to anyone for the time being. The outcome has not been decided yet. Now most of the people involved are the Crown Prince and the prince's men. If the Crown Prince dares to kill the people in the harem at will, he will be the enemy of the whole country. He will not be able to hold the throne safely. "
Lin Mengya had already seen it from the Crown Prince's attitude toward her and the Emperor.
The Crown Prince wanted to force the Emperor to abdicate, but he wanted to do it justifiably.
Because he was the Crown Prince, at least in his own heart, the next emperor must be him.
So no one would strongly object to his ascension to the throne sooner or later.
What's more, "those people" were watching in the dark.
They were shrewd. It was just the Long family's business.
As long as the winner finally won, he would be the heir, and they would recognize him.
Sure enough, the old man was cunning. His habit of not taking action until he saw the hare had not changed at all.
"That's good, that's good. I don't know how Yu 'er is doing. I hope he and Qinghan are safe. "
Hearing Lin Mengya's words, Imperial Noble Consort Dehui was relieved.
Sitting on the soft bed, she kept reciting the Buddhist scriptures.
Before she knew it, it was getting late.
Lin Mengya had nothing to do for the time being. She could only sit by the bed and watch everything outside in a trance.
It was still snowing heavily, and the snow under the window was already half a man's height.
She hoped that the heavens would grant her wish.
"I don't know when this damn weather will end."
There was a house only a few miles away from the imperial palace. No one knew which lord's mansion it belonged to, but now it had been temporarily requisitioned by Long Tianhao.
The gate and the outer wall were broken, and soldiers in red light armor kept coming in and out.
The huge yard now looked like a bandit's den.
Long Qinghan, dressed in dark red armor, leaned against the short wall and scolded.
"Be content. If it weren't for the fortifications, do you think the reinforcements the Crown Prince put outside would not have arrived so late?"
Qinghu, who was also dressed in armor, couldn't help but roll his eyes at the guy.
He had changed out of his usual long gown and robe. Even though he was wearing armor, he still exuded a unique aura of elegance.
But it didn't make people think that he was a man, but had a kind of cold deterrent.
He didn't have a good impression of the men of the Long family at all.
It was just because of his relationship with his daughter that he had to obey Long Tianhao's words.
As for the others, they didn't stand a chance.
"Tut, I just sighed. You're a strange person. Every time I say something, you always have eight or ten words to refute me. Believe it or not, I'll tell my third sister-in-law and let her teach you a lesson. "
In fact, Long Qinghan, who was wearing armor, was just being stubborn. His usual appearance of a noble childe had long disappeared.
Although the armor was easy to use, it was not light.
After a day of fighting, his physical strength had been seriously overdrawn.
His handsome face, which had a good figure, now had dark circles under his eyes, and he looked a lot haggard.
The reason why he insisted on standing in the snow instead of going into the room to sit around the stove was because he was afraid that once he relaxed, he would miss the opportunity to fight.
Because now, the battle for the inheritance had just begun.
"Don't forget that your third sister-in-law is my sister."
Qinghu bared his teeth. Long Qinghan couldn't help but shiver when he saw his pale white teeth.
"How's your injury? Don't let my daughter be a widow if you die. "
Qinghu, who had won the battle of words, walked into the room and said coldly.
The door of the mansion was wide open, and there was only a man in bright clothes sitting on the main seat.
The bright red armor was like a raging fire burning on the snowy ground.
No matter what kind of darkness and coldness, it could be burned into nothingness by him.
The man's facial features were handsome and cold. Even though his face was pale, no one would underestimate him.
Especially that pair of black eyes that were as deep as the abyss, always made people unconsciously submit to him.
He raised his eyes and glanced at Qinghu indifferently.
Qinghu had to leave the hall no matter how reluctant he was.
"It's okay. Don't tell her about this."
Long Tianhao's voice was low and hoarse. In order to make the scene more realistic, he was a little injured.
But he had avoided the vital parts, so he was not seriously injured now.
Holding the letters sent by the other princes in his hand, he slightly narrowed his eyes, exuding a dangerous light.
It seemed that Ya 'er was right. These people were up to no good.
He was afraid that as soon as they entered the palace, someone would rush into his father's study and force him to write an imperial edict to abdicate, and then start a new round of killing.
It would be meaningless for him.
Therefore, he had to wait for a foolproof opportunity.
"Write a letter to the princes, saying that my troops have been fighting for a day and a night. They are really tired and have to rest. If they want to attack first, they can do it. "
Long Tianhao didn't care at all, and threw the high-sounding letters into the brazier.
There was a moment of sarcasm in his eyes, watching the orange flames engulfing the fake, but he didn't show any regret.
Previously, the Crown Prince's men came aggressively, and most of the battle was fought by his men.
Those princes either came late, or said that they didn't have enough troops, so they could only hold the line.
Now the Crown Prince's limelight was ruined, and he hid in the palace and didn't dare to come out.
They began to rub their palms, and wanted to use him as a sword.
Did they think he was a fool?
"Yes."
Lin Kui was still following him, but this time he had changed his clothes of a guard.
He was originally from the army, and now he was wearing armor, so he was more suitable than anyone else.
However, because of this civil strife, the Capital City had been devastated.
Many people didn't have time to escape, and now they could only hide in a relatively safe place, waiting for the final result.
Fortunately, the princess had prepared a lot of houses in the suburbs of the palace.
Those courtyards were spacious and inconspicuous, and the most terrible thing was that the courtyards and houses had been dug out.
The secret underground room could hide a lot of people.
Therefore, a few days before the uprising, they had evacuated a lot of people living near the palace.
They didn't expect that the princess was not only resourceful, but also thoughtful about these things.
Those who knew the inside story all admired and marveled at the princess's kindness.
It seemed that the prince was the smartest person. In the vast sea of people, only the prince could recognize the pearl, and so he recognized the princess.
Thinking so, he didn't stop walking.
