Chapter 956 News of Father and Brother
Lin Mengya’s eyes were firm and she refused to give in.
Perhaps her words were not pleasant to hear, and her attitude was selfish and overbearing, but she was not a saint, so she did not have such melodramatic forgiveness.
As long as Baili Rui said no, it would not change at all.
Lin Mengya turned around, not wanting to waste any more time on Yunzhu.
However, her arm was grasped and Yunzhu fell to her knees. Tears welled up in her desiccated eyes once again.
“I beg you. I beg you. Let me see my son. I also have information about that person. As long as you let me see my son, I’ll tell you everything.”
Yunzhu knew clearly what Lin Mengya was facing, so she thought of using this information to make a final exchange.
But Lin Mengya shook off her hand without looking back and said in a colder tone.
“I don’t need this thing to exchange. If you dare to disobey me, then you and your son will never see each other.”
In the icy snow, Lin Mengya’s figure faded away.
Yunzhu, who was paralyzed on the ground, cried and burst into tears.
There was a hint of sorrow in the cry, but it was mostly remorse for what she had done in the past.
“Master, someone has sent you a letter.”
As soon as she entered the yard, she saw Baisu rushing in.
Looking suspiciously at the brownish-red envelope sealed with fiery red paint in her hand, Lin Mengya quickly opened it and read the words on it carefully.
“Ask Qinghu to come here. If the prince comes back, also ask him to come here immediately.”
With the arrival of this letter, the sense of loss caused by the tragedy of Yunzhu and Baili Rui disappeared instantly.
She hurried back to the Liuxin Courtyard. She even ignored Baiji and others and went back to her room quickly.
“What’s the matter, Master?”
The girls put down their work and surrounded Lin Mengya.
When they saw Lin Mengya holding onto the letter in her hand excitedly, they felt a little bit worried.
“It’s the news of my father and elder brother. Shangguan Hui really found them and secretly sent news to me.”
After Shangguan Hui left, Qinghu sent many elites of Sanjue Hall to follow her.
Moreover, Shangguan Hui was not a traditionally delicate girl. Qinghu mentioned that Miss Shangguan also possessed some hidden powers.
It seemed that in order to escape from the Shangguan Family, Shangguan Hui had resorted to every means.
However, she was glad that she and Shangguan Hui would never be enemies.
None of the women of Shangguan Family were easy to mess with.
“Great, are the Master and the Young Master all right?”
Baizhi threw away the food in her hand, rushed over and asked excitedly.
At the same time, Qinghu stepped into the room with a faint smile on his face.
He knew clearly about Lin Mengya’s yearning for her two closest family members.
“They’re fine. You can leave.”
Lin Mengya did not intend to hide something, but it was not time to make the truth public yet.
The girls left obediently, leaving Baisu behind to guard the door vigilantly.
Lin Mengya handed the letter to Qinghu with a serious look in her eyes.
“I didn’t expect that they were the ones who took General Lin and Young General away.”
The corners of Qinghu’s mouth curled up into an unknown smile, but he also looked a little surprised.
“If the members of Lin Family could really open the gate of the paradise city, it makes sense that they want to capture my father and elder brother. But the letter says that they treat my father and brother politely and never make things difficult for them. They even told them their purpose as soon as they met. I can’t figure out what they want. Do they want my father and brother to sacrifice themselves voluntarily?”
Lin Mengya felt a little puzzled as she looked at Qinghu and said in a soft voice.
Shangguan Hui’s letter was not long. It could be seen that she asked someone to take it out hurriedly.
However, there was all the necessary information in the letter.
Her father and elder brother had been saved by a tribe in Lieyun Empire. It was said that this tribe was one of the oldest tribes in Lieyun.
From the first time they met Lin Mengya’s father and elder brother, they told them about the mission of the Lin Family.
According to Shangguan Hui, this tribe was very simple and honest. They were very polite to them, but forbade them from contacting the outside world.
However, the letter also said that whether it was her father, elder brother, Shangguan Hui or Hongyu, they all felt that the people in this tribe were not as simple and kind as they seemed.
Thus, she did not reveal her strength. Instead, she dispatched people to secretly send this letter.
“If that is the case, I’m afraid they’ve made a mistake. If they really want to save people, why don’t they let them contact the outside world? It’s obvious that these people have evil intentions. Since they know the identity of the Lin Family, it may be a little troublesome later. But in this case, we might as well go there when we return Lieyun.”
Qinghu’s eyes sparkled, and his expression changed.
The truth of many things was about to be revealed.
Once the relic of the Guwei State, or the paradise city was opened, he was afraid that all kinds of people would show up.
At that time, no one could escape.
“They are ambitious. It’s a pity that I have a hunch that the paradise city may not be the one they think.”
Lin Mengya’s smile was a little mysterious. She was not very clear about what was inside and she was also not very interested.
And the reason why she ended up like this was that her fate was closely intertwined with that damned paradise city.
But she had a hunch that the things in the relic of the Guwei State would probably disappoint these people.
It was not that simple to contend for hegemony.
But to Lin Mengya’s surprise, Long Tianyu did not return to Prince Yu’s Mansion this night.
It was not until the early morning of the next day that someone came from the palace and said that the Empress Dowager asked Princess Rongan to enter the palace to accompany her.
On the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month, commonly known as the Little New Year among people, an extremely luxurious carriage took Princess Rongan and little Duke of the Nation of Lintian from Prince Yu’s Mansion to the Imperial Palace.
Many people had heard that the princess from another country would drink animal blood. She also had an ugly appearance, like a yaksha that had crawled out of hell.
But when the stunning woman dressed in a cherry-red cloak and surrounded by four fairy-like maids slowly walked toward the palace gate, another legend about Princess Rongan was added.
Princess Rongan was as beautiful as a fairy. Maybe she was transformed from a demon.
These rumors were just circulating in the city, but no one knew how many people added fuel to the fire secretly.
But this time, both Long Tianyu and Lin Mengya, uncharacteristically, didn’t pay attention to it.
Some people were complacent in the dark, but they didn’t know that they had already fallen into a trap.
Looking at the towering palace wall in front of her, Lin Mengya sighed slightly.
She lowered her eyes and got in a small sedan chair with Baiji’s help.
She didn’t like the atmosphere here. Although the owner had changed and no one would deliberately plot against her, the cage-like atmosphere still made her feel a little depressed.
Presumably, Long Tianyu knew her thoughts so he issued an edict, except for a few people who stayed in the Hidden Dragon Mansion, others would follow Lin Mengya into the palace to serve her.
She knew that the man was afraid that she wouldn’t get used to it, so she was moved in her heart.
But along the way, she saw many palace maids standing with their hands at their sides and looking at her with great respect. She felt a little helpless.
After all, she was no longer the Lin Mengya in the past.
“Your Highness, we’ve arrived at the palace that the Empress Dowager and the Majesty arranged for you.”
Outside the sedan chair, the eunuch who was sent to lead the way reported in a low voice.
Lin Mengya sighed faintly, then tidied up her appearance and got out of the sedan.
In the cold wind, Lin Mengya raised her head and looked carefully at the name of the palace.
“Yixin Courtyard.”
She murmured those words and a warm current completely comforted her heart.
She recognized this handwriting. Apart from that person, no one else would be so affectionate toward her.
Long Tianyu’s concern warmed her heart and dispelled her unease.
“This name is very strange, but Your Highness seems to like it very much.”
Baizhi blinked her big watery eyes and said with a smile.
Out of the four of them, Baizhi was the only one who was clueless about romantic matters. Baishao tugged at her sleeve with a blushed face.
But they were very happy. Be it the prince or the emperor, he had never changed his affection towards their master.
It was easy to get a thousand taels of gold, but difficult to find a true lover.
Their master did not misjudge him.
Although nothing in the Yixin Courtyard was the most luxurious, it was absolutely perfect, as exquisite as a fairyland on earth.
Although it might not be as exquisite as the Liuxin Courtyard, it was full of extraordinary thoughts, which were much better than those gorgeous but cold and empty palaces.
“The Majesty knows that Your Highness is not used to being served by others, so people in this courtyard are all your old people. There are only about a dozen new eunuchs sent there. But Your Highness, please rest assured. These people are all selected by the Empress Dowager on her own. They are not only capable but also loyal.”
The eunuch who guided Lin Mengya into the palace was an old man serving the Empress Dowager. It was said that he had served her for decades and had never made any mistake.
By now, everyone in the palace knew that Princess Rongan was the apple of the Majesty’s eye. Even the Empress Dowager loved her very much. Of course, they served her carefully.
“Thank you for your advice. The Highness is new here. Please cover a lot of.”
Baishao, who was good at dealing with people, took out a stack of banknotes from her sleeve and stuffed them into the hands of the chief eunuch.
The chief eunuch only took a single glance and then his heart suddenly jumped.
Having been serving in the palace for so many years, he had seen many generous masters.
But that generous, he had seen for the first time.
