Chapter 445 - Night of Gossip
Chapter 445 Night of Gossip
However, Lin Mengya smiled indifferently. If she still couldn’t see through Sumei at this moment, she would be brainless.
“Jiang Ruqin has played this kind of tricks in the prince’s mansion. Besides, with the two cousin brothers of mine around, she doesn’t dare to act recklessly.”
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes and looked at the sunlight outside.
The Nation of Lintian was surrounded by the sea on three sides, with a climate much more humid than that of the Dajin.
These two countries had their own characteristics. Perhaps she should travel and look around the Nation of Lintian during this period.
Anyway, since Zuo Qiuchen had given her the commercial monopoly of the Nation of Lintian, it was a good choice to make here the bank of the Sanjue Hall.
The rumor about Long Tianyu and Sumei was spread among all the servants in the mansion.
Nevertheless, Lin Mengya’s identity was special, and Zuo Qiuyu intentionally suppressed it.
The scandal, which was quite rampant in the morning, seemed to have vanished after lunch.
Sitting in Lin Mengya’s room, Long Tianyu carefully peeled an apple for her, while peeping at Lin Mengya’s expression from time to time.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya seemed to be indifferent. She picked at her apple from time to time, while enjoying reading a book on her lap.
He felt relieved. In the morning, Sumei did intend to throw herself at him.
However, he pushed her out at once.
He didn’t expect that even so, there was a widespread rumor in the mansion.
It was then that he realized that Sumei intended to have that scene seen by others in the mansion and thus to make a sex scandal of it.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya took no action.
Long Tianyu felt slightly uncomfortable while feeling relieved.
But he failed to figure out the specific reason for it.
He just felt that Lin Mengya should not be so calm.
Nevertheless, Lin Mengya hadn’t said anything to him since he came here for lunch.
Did she really get angry and bear grudges against him?
However, Long Tianyu, who had never been good with words, didn’t know what to say.
Thus, he had to give vent to his complex emotions in the apple.
Seeing a big red apple almost turned into a core, Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and looked at the guy in front of her.
Was he sure that this apple was for her?
“Just leave these things to Baishao or others.”
Lin Mengya’s gaze shifted from Long Tianyu to the core in his hand.
Alas, what a waste of this big red apple.
“Hmm, well.”
Long Tianyu put down the apple and the knife in embarrassment, picked up the towel and wiped his hands with it.
“Do you have anything to talk to me?”
Seeing Long Tianyu looked apparently inattentive, Lin Mengya couldn’t help asking.
“I’m, I’m fine. I just heard that Zuo Qiuyu is going to take you to the Pavilion of Herbs personally for medical treatment. I’m worried, so I want to go with you.”
Long Tianyu said seriously. Lin Mengya suddenly stopped eating the apple and tilted her head with her eyes full of puzzlement.
“You want to go with me? Is the Dajin okay with it?”
Lin Mengya was a little surprised. Long Tianyu, whom she knew, had always given first priority to the national affairs.
Although he came to the Nation of Lintian with her for seeking medicine, he was ordered by the emperor of the Jin state.
Now seeking medicine was not only her own business, but also related to the scramble for emperorship of the Nation of Lintian.
If she got involved in it with her special identity, she even didn’t know what she would face.
If Long Tianyu got involved in it with his sensitive identity, they would probably fail in seeking medicine.
“It’s okay.”
Long Tianyu blinked and could barely suppress his guilty conscience.
In fact, in addition to allowing him to follow Lin Mengya to seek medicine, his father’s secret edict emphasized more on seeking information about the music score for green stringed instrument.
They had only doubted it before, but got the definite news from Lin Mengya unexpectedly.
If he left now, his father would probably send someone else here.
He found himself such a high-sounding reason on the surface.
However, Long Tianyu actually didn’t want to let Lin Mengya leave his sight anymore.
Now he had to shut those people up with the secret edict of his father.
“Okay, if you insist, I’ll take you with us. But before we go, we should solve some problem.”
Lin Mengya didn’t consider it inappropriate. After all, Long Tianyu had participated with her in her sufferings.
It would be inappropriate for her to kick him out when they finally got here.
Putting the book on her lap to the table, Lin Mengya stood up and stretched herself.
She was never a person allowing sands in her eyes. She had taken no action because it was unnecessary.
However, since Zuo Qiuchen and Zuo Qiuyu seemed to intend to make her a spoiled child out of control, how could she deserve the character her two cousin brothers tried hard to build up for her if she didn’t act in an arbitrary and arrogant manner?
With a somewhat evil smile on her face, Lin Mengya waved her small hand and said nobly.
“Come with me to watch a good show.”
Time: Around 2:30 in the afternoon.
Location: The back garden of Prince Shen’s Mansion.
This was a good time in which people felt drowsy. In the mansion, in addition to those servants who were still serving their masters, others found a place and rested for a while.
But at this time, three people came out of the courtyard. They were Lin Mengya, who wanted to watch a show, and Baishao, her most loyal attendant.
Besides them, it was Long Tianyu who had always been silently indulging his princess and not even afraid of smashing a hole in the sky.
As soon as the three arrived in the veranda, they attracted countless attention.
As Princess Anle, Lin Mengya seldom talked to the servants.
Nevertheless, everyone saw that the precious gifts from princes in different levels and even imperial clansmen and ministers were carried to this princess’ house like flowing water.
We should know that the near branches of the royal family of the Nation of Lintian had few girls, and the situation even got outrageous in this generation. Except for this little princess, there were no other girls.
Therefore, this little princess was overwhelmed by a favor incomparable to all the girls in the Nation of Lintian received.
However, someone was not afraid of death.
As everyone watched Lin Mengya, Baishao and Long Tianyu walking towards somewhere, their curiosity was aroused.
Gosh, during their lifetime, they could see the little princess of the Nation of Lintian feel jealous for her husband and lose her temper.
This was simply an extraordinary affair once in a century!
The interest in gossip instantly ignited everyone’s energy.
The prince’s mansion, which was still drowsy just now, had recovered its vitality at this moment.
In a short time where they walked to the back yard from the middle yard, the servants, who intended to watch the fun, had crowded the back yard with various excuses, pretended to be inattentive and waited for the upcoming war.
Although Zuo Qiuyu was just a prince, he had a not small mansion as the only brother of the emperor of the Nation of Lintian.
His mansion included three yards. In addition to the middle yard where the masters received guests, the back yard was basically a place where female members and guests lived.
However, Zuo Qiuyu was quite eccentric. In his twenties, he was obsessed with medicinal herbs and even didn’t have a concubine.
Therefore, guests such as Long Tianyu, Sumei and Hongyu were temporarily arranged in the guest rooms of the back yard.
Regarding Lin Mengya, at the adamant demand of Zuo Qiuchen, Zuo Qiuyu had to give up his main house to Lin Mengya.
Poor Prince Shen had to live in a wing room in his mansion.
Lin Mengya didn’t show any angry look on the way, but just walked leisurely to the guest rooms, where Sumei and Hongyu lived, like taking a walk after dinner.
At this moment, it had been crowded with the servants coming to watch the fun.
However, no one dared to come here brazenly. Everyone came with an excuse. In an instant, even the job of sweeping the backyard was favored by them.
It could be seen that gossip was absolutely regardless of country, time and space.
Lin Mengya pretended that she didn’t see them, because she intended to make the matter significant. In this case, she certainly would like to see as many people as possible.
When they just arrived at the backyard, Hongyu got out of the room in embarrassment instead of Sumei.
Comparing herself to Lin Mengya, Hongyu had always been opposed to her sister Sumei’s thought of attaching herself to Long Tianyu.
However, these days Sumei seemed to be bewitched.
She kept thinking of hooking up with Long Tianyu to promote her status.
In this morning, Hongyu and Sumei had a heated argument because Sumei tried to seduce Long Tianyu.
Now Lin Mengya had come to find her.
It was reasonable for them to give her an explanation.
However, Hongyu couldn’t say a word in front of their lifesaver. With her face full of embarrassment, she smiled unnaturally at Lin Mengya.
“You are here.”
Lin Mengya raised her eyes to glance at her and then nodded slightly.
Compared with the nice young man Yuan Lin before, Lin Mengya looked a little more arrogant after dressing as a girl.
Hongyu felt increasingly uncertain.
She had thought that this girl might come from a wealthy merchant’s family.
But she had never expected that this girl turned out to be Princess Anle of the Nation of Lintian as well as the beloved daughter of General Lin, Marquis Zhennan of the Jin State.
Such a girl was simply unimaginable for her after these years she had spent in brothels.
Nevertheless, she knew that confronting such a girl, they could only swallow it even if they were dragged out and beaten to death.
“Hongyu, you don’t have to feel sorry for me. You’ve got no further debt to me since we were in the Square Town. Now, you owe me nothing. Since your sister has violated the rules, ask her out to receive punishment.”
Lin Mengya said in a gentle tone, showing no rage and even no mood fluctuations.
She didn’t look like a jealous woman coming to make a scene at all.
