Lin Mengya shook her head and gave up the desire to continue asking.
After all, everyone had something they didn't want others to know.
Even though Shi Bupo still looked as annoying as ever after he woke up, there was now a tacit understanding between the two of them.
For example, the person who had no medical talent was studying medical books hard.
Even Xu Shan was so surprised that his jaw almost fell off, let alone Qinghu.
Of course, even if Shi Bupo was studying medical books hard, he was still the talkative and invincible Shi Bupo.
No matter how tiring and difficult the journey was, she could always hear them quarreling.
It was a kind of pastime in the busy work. Of course, when she was annoyed, she would yell at them to shut up.
Anyway, the journey was boring, but not hard.
Lin Mengya spent the whole one and a half months in the horse carriage.
Fortunately, she had already learned how to stay in the carriage. Moreover, there were endless secret letters sent to her every day, so she didn't even have time to feel bored.
When they arrived at Xiangzhou, the horse carriage suddenly slowed down, and she was not used to it.
It was the first day of January when they left the capital city.
Now it was the middle of February. Although it was cold in spring, it was not as cold as in winter.
On this day, Lin Mengya, who hadn't slept in a bed for a long time, finally got one.
She fell into a deep sleep. This time, even her biological clock stopped working, so she slept for a whole day and night.
"What is it? It smells so good."
In the end, it was the physiological reaction of hunger that made her wake up from her deep sleep reluctantly.
"It seems that Qinghu was right. Master is not only a sleepy cat, but also a greedy cat."
Baisu smiled and put a bowl of vegetable porridge in front of Lin Mengya.
Qinghu had always been meticulous in taking care of Lin Mengya's daily life.
"What time is it now? Where are they? "
Lin Mengya asked while eating the porridge. They arrived at Chongan County at night. This inconspicuous inn was actually one of the properties of Sanjue Hall.
It was also because they were on their own turf that she could sleep soundly without worry.
A glint of gloom flashed across Baisu's eyes, but she still looked relaxed and tried to hide her thoughts.
"The sky has just turned dark. Qinghu and the other two have gone to settle down first. However, they said that they hoped that Master could have a good rest. If there's anything, why don't we talk about it tomorrow? "
Lin Mengya raised the corner of her eyes. She did not know if this lass knew that every time she tried to lie, her eyes were too sincere. She would even stare at others.
This was probably what people often said about overcorrecting.
"Baisu, you're hiding something from me."
Lin Mengya put down the white porcelain bowl, wiped her mouth, and looked at Baisu calmly.
After struggling for a while, the latter shrugged dejectedly, but his tone was a little indignant.
"I knew it. Master, you would expose me in an instant. Unfortunately, none of those three people were willing to wade into this muddy water."
Lin Mengya shook her head. Of course, she knew that if Qinghu and the other two told her about this, she would definitely make them cry for their parents.
But Baisu was different. She had always been generous and kind to these girls. It was obviously the best choice to use her as a scapegoat.
"Since you know that you can't hide it from me, just tell me the truth. Is there a problem with our manpower? "
Baisu looked at her master in surprise, and her big watery eyes were filled with some unwillingness.
"Sure enough, nothing can escape Master's eyes. Hmph, the branch hall here is peaceful, but some people maliciously speculate about your intentions and come here to cause trouble!"
It turned out that according to her order, the branch hall only needed to send their best men to Sanjue Hall.
But because of Lin Mengya's relationship with the imperial court of various countries, the development of Sanjue Hall was too smooth.
Therefore, some people forgot that the reason why they could summon wind and rain was not because of their ability, but because of Lin Mengya's reputation.
Once the desire for power grew, it would not only make people blindly confident, but also bring arrogance.
In order to prevent such a situation, all the Hall Masters of the branch hall were selected by the headquarters of Sanjue Hall.
In addition to maintaining loyalty, more importantly, they were born in Sanjue Hall, so they had a sense of responsibility and belonging.
However, in order to attract more talents to the branch halls, many of the branch hall's deputy hall masters and even the stewards below them were recruited from outside.
As the saying went, there was always someone better than you. Although the people who went out from the headquarters were outstanding, their qualifications were somewhat uneven.
Over time, there were some powerful deputy Hall Masters who overstepped their authority and took over the Hall Masters' affairs.
Originally, she and Qinghu had already made a plan. This time, the people they brought out were not only to complete the task, but also to gain experience.
When these people came back safely, they would become the most elite and core strength of Sanjue Hall.
However, some people were reluctant to give the people they had painstakingly recruited to her, a Hall Master who did nothing.
However, the rules of Sanjue Hall were strict. If they obeyed but secretly disobeyed, the law enforcement in the hall would not tolerate it.
It was the law enforcement team trained by Qinghu himself. Not only were they skilled in martial arts, but they were also stubborn people who would firmly uphold the rules of the hall.
Since they couldn't fight it head-on, some of them thought of other ways.
According to the order issued by the headquarters, they sent the people here first. However, in the name of escorting the people, they personally held the line, and finally in front of the Hall Master with various reasons to let their people show their faces, which could be considered as fulfilling their responsibility.
However, by doing so, they were also testing the bottom line of her, the Hall Master.
After all, she had said it first, and everyone had a chance to go back on their words.
However, if she really swaggered away like this, as the Hall Master, she would become a laughing stock, and would no longer have any prestige in the future.
If she insisted on punishing those people, she would be at a disadvantage, and the morale of these people would fall, which would not make up for the loss.
In short, no matter who came up with this idea, she, the Hall Master, was pushed to the top of the storm.
As expected, they were here to stir up trouble, but it was a pity that their means were too despicable.
"How many people in charge of the branch hall came?"
Baisu said angrily, but Lin Mengya did not react at all. She just asked lightly, and then continued to sit at the table and drink tea.
"A total of seven people came, but only the three deputy Hall Masters made the most noise. Among the other four deputy Hall Masters, two deputy Hall Masters have ambiguous attitudes, and the remaining two Hall Masters should be here to escort. I heard from Qinghu that one of them is your old acquaintance. "
Lin Mengya's eyebrows twitched. Recently, she had a lot of old acquaintances, and for her, it was not necessarily a good thing.
She put down the teacup in her hand, and still looked calm.
"Oh? Who is it? "
Baisu's face lit up, and she whispered in her ear.
"Everyone calls him Master Guo, and it is said that he used to do great things with you. Now the affairs in the Nation of Lintian are all under his control. He has a high position among the Hall Masters of the branch hall. With him supporting you, I'm sure those people won't be able to cause any trouble. "
She raised the corner of her mouth, and her delicate facial features softened.
Some memories came to her mind, and there was also a flicker of expectation.
She clearly remembered the way he addressed Master Guo.
When she went to Lintian to look for medicine, she disguised herself as a man and mingled with Master Guo's caravan.
After such a long time, Master Guo had already become the mainstay of Sanjue Hall, and she had already shed the naivety of the past.
But she did not expect that Master Guo would come all the way to support her.
It seemed that she did not misjudge him at that time.
"No, you go to send a message to Master Guo. He can just watch from the sidelines tomorrow, but I appreciate your kindness. "
Baisu looked at Lin Mengya suspiciously, as if she did not understand why her master would do such a thing to break her own wings.
She could not help but sound a little anxious, thinking that her master was confused by anger.
"Master, why do you have to do this? After all, Master Guo's words have some weight. Except for him, the other Hall Master is just a follower. Tomorrow, you will have to fight alone! "
Compared with Baisu's anxious mood, Lin Mengya, who squinted her eyes and tasted the fragrant tea in her hand, seemed too relaxed.
She looked at the girl in front of her, who was more anxious than her. After enjoying Baisu's anxious expression, she said faintly.
"In their eyes, I'm just a good-for-nothing who relied on luck to become the Hall Master. In this case, if Master Guo blindly helps me, won't it confirm my reputation as a good-for-nothing? This is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst, and it can't stop them at all. "
Baisu was smart. After listening to her words, she said thoughtfully.
"Master, you mean …"
Her rosy and tender lips curled up into a seductive sneer as they came into contact with the warm tea.
She squinted her eyes, but there was a flash of coldness.
"We are different from the Imperial Court. Since they dared to have thoughts about me, they should be prepared to be eliminated by others."
Lin Mengya's voice was delicate and gentle, but it made Baisu shiver.
She knew that her master would not easily show a trace of killing intent, so even though she had a deadly poison, she always looked harmless.
But today, she saw clearly that she might have a chance to survive if she offended the monarch far away in the Capital City.
But if she offended the devil in front of her, she really got a pass to hell.
Maybe they made a wrong judgment and acted.
The most terrible and severe thing in Sanjue Hall was not the strict rules and iron-blooded law enforcement team.
