Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 341 Draw a Snake out of Its Hole

Qiu Yu who still had crooked eyes and mouth stood there quite uncomfortably at the moment.

If the former Lin Mengya only seemed shrewd and brilliant to him, the Lin Mengya who stood there at present seemed to be a simple normal girl who had removed her camouflage.

There should all be normal people who didn’t have shocking status, except for him in that room.

Although the three slave girls who were delicate and pretty called her Master on the surface, they cared for her as if they were siblings in a normal family.

There was no flattery in that place but only deep warmth. All the people there surrounded the girl in the middle who was smiling brightly.

Such a warm and innocent scene made him a bit envious.

Perhaps, there were indeed those kinds of people who were particularly lucky in that world.

Even him, the God’s favored one, felt that the things he owned were not worthwhile at all.

Having washed her face with the medicinal juice Nanny Bai stewed, the rashes on Lin Mengya’s face quickly disappeared, as if by magic.

That was the simplest type of allergic reaction. Even if one didn’t care for it, it would disappear overnight.

However, as a girl who cared a lot for her beauty, she would never risk the slightest possibility of ruining her face!

“Well, Master, you’re finally back. You’ll never know how concerned I was for you.”

Baizhi who was currently the youngest could stay with Lin Mengya reasonably.

From the beginning, she had been holding Lin Mengya’s sleeve and wouldn’t let her go.

“Sorry to have made you worried.”

Lin Mengya lowered her eyes and gently comforted everyone in the room.

In fact, from the very beginning, she had wanted to go to the Sanjue Hall.

On one hand, she would have some extra time. On the other hand, she could pick up the slave girls while she did so.

“Well, you should let go of the concubine first. The food will get cold soon. You’ve already had your fill. Do you want the concubine to starve?”

Nanny Bai was the one who cared for Lin Mengya the most. And she tapped on Baiji’s and Baizhi’s foreheads with her words.

The girls stopped their chats. Then, Lin Mengya picked up the chopsticks and started eating in an elegant and fast way.

“Gud”, the sound of someone swallowing saliva coming from the corner was extremely sharp.

All of them looked to the direction where the sound came with confusion.

Qiu Yu touched his belly with an embarrassed smile and spoke in a low voice,

“Well… I haven’t had a meal for a whole day…”

The trembling expression had already disappeared from that face.

Everyone there looked at the handsome man in shock. The smartest would be Baiji who immediately went to the kitchen; she took a pair of chopsticks and bowl and placed them on the table.

“I forgot to introduce him to you. This is a friend I met today in the palace. His name is Qiu Yu. I couldn’t have returned as easily if not for his help.”

Although, he didn’t help in the right way.

However, Lin Mengya never forgot one’s help easily. That day in the valley. The mysterious woman in black went directly to take her life.

If Qiu Yu hadn’t shown up, she would then be in hell, talking with the King of Hell and his ghosts.

“Thank you, Mr. Qiu. Mum, hurry up and make something delicious for him. Don’t make him feel ignored.”

Lin Mengya’s lifesaver was their lifesaver.

Everyone in that room agreed on that thing.

Nanny Bai agreed, and was about to go out to make some more dishes which she was good at when Qiu Yu stopped her.

“There’s no need. In my opinion, the nanny cooks even better than those cooks in the palace. I’m a friend of the concubine, so I’m a friend of you guys too. No need to be so courteous with me. This is good enough.”

Qiu Yu was not only handsome but also sounded sweet, which won Nanny Bai’s favor quickly.

Lin Mengya sat near the stove. After the meal, she felt much calmer.

After the whole day’s rush, things hadn’t ended when she arrived in Sanjue Hall.

At the moment, the thirteenth in the Wanliu Embankment had to be upside down. The local authorities had already received the news and surrounded the yard.

But before then, those surveillants who found no one in the yard would surely try to break into the yard.

Some time earlier, Qiu Yu had sent someone pretending to be a servant of a normal rich family, and reported a case to the local authorities.

Since the first time Ma Bashi went back, she had known that those who monitored her or tried to catch her were definitely associated with the Crown Prince and the royal army.

Therefore, the case she reported was that the robber wanted to rob her home. Besides, the man who reported the case had gotten her order. So he not only said things as if they had really happened.

He also made the report in an ironic way to stimulate the officer. He pushed the officer so much that he had to take the soldiers along.

Lin Mengya wasn’t satisfied with the situation and started a fire in the warehouse. It was just then—as all the neighbors went out to stop the fire—when they saw the palace army, the officer and his soldiers who followed.

That was absolutely not a peaceful night.

The Crown Prince had surely lost more than he won. But she didn’t just stop there.

After the few days she spent in Qiu Yu’s home, she had thought it through.

If she didn’t make a move, the Crown Prince and the Empress would never let her go, either.

Although, if the emperor woke up earlier, the Crown Prince and the Empress would not be so bold. It would be too passive to put your whole hope upon others.

Besides, the Crown Prince and the Empress had done so much to her that if she didn’t pay them back, their hard work would go to waste.

“Do you want to hide yourself here for the rest of your life? Or do you want to send someone to report to Prince Yu so that he can take you back?”

Qiu Yu who had had enough food and felt satisfied asked Lin Mengya in a low voice.

He was different from Lin Mengya, who knew nothing about his status. He had everything done by his followers. Therefore, he could go back to the palace without any suspicion.

But Lin Mengya was different. That little carriage without a driver must have been found and they would find no one there.

However, if he showed up then, he would be the target.

Those who saw the empty furnishings would understand Lin Mengya had taken advantage of their arrogance. So she successfully used the plan to get out.

She was safe thanks to her previous prudence. She didn’t let others know that the secret boss of the medical store was her.

“Don’t hurry. After tonight, they’ll be gotten rid of. For tonight, we only need a good sleep. By tomorrow morning, we can secretly go back to Prince Yu’s Mansion.”

Lin Mengya was not worried at all. After a yawn, she was offered an embroidered soft cushion by the caring Baishao, which would make her more comfortable.

“I didn’t get you completely. Maybe you mean, someone will help us to get rid of them? Who can be so powerful? Not even Long Tianyu can do it!”

Though Qiu Yu was smart, he didn’t know clearly about the government in Dajin.

Lin Mengya calmly glanced at him and then explained slowly,

“Do you think the good officers in Dajin are all dead men? They ignored the Crown Prince and the Empress’s absurd acts because it was not a big deal. But this time, they mobilized the royal army and robbed a normal house in public, which was even witnessed. What should this be called? It’s a huge shame which will ruin the citizens’ faith! You have to know that the reason why the citizens believe in the government is that they think the army and the government exist to protect them. If they know the royal army committed robbery, they would be no different from bandits. I have heard a sentence, which says, ‘while the waters can keep a boat float, they can also overturn it.’ The common people’s belief is how the government can exist. The army is nothing. Without the common people’s feed, the citizens’ support, the source and food of the army will be cut off. Why would every first emperor of each dynasty exempt taxes and punishments at the beginning of a dynasty? They’re afraid of the people’s uproar. Now, Dajin punished those greedy officers who invaded properties from the people while the royal army acts like bandits. If I haven’t guessed it wrong, those greedy officers should be the Crown Prince’s followers, right?”

Lin Mengya’s words instantly shocked Qiu Yu.

He stared at Lin Mengya without a move; his eyes shined brightly.

He never imagined that Lin Mengya would scheme so much.

He only mentioned the greedy officers. Lin Mengya didn’t ask more about it, so he thought she didn’t take it seriously.

But he could never imagine that she had controlled such a great scene.

Without a doubt, the greedy officers all belonged to the Crown Prince and so did the royal army.

But in an officer’s eyes, it would be that the Crown Prince was unsatisfied since his followers were investigated, so he allowed the royal army to act absurdly.

How should that be named? In a few words, it was an arrogant rich guy trying to express his dissatisfaction. But he was the Crown Prince, the one who would be the next emperor!

If he permitted the royal army to rob when his followers were investigated, then, everyone who went against him in the future would be killed?

Besides, since the Crown Prince was so bold, he might probably lose the emperor’s power in the future if the emperor learned of it.

Just thinking about it, when in Mount Lingju, the Crown Prince escaped before the fight. Currently, there were more rumors about him. If such a fatuous man became the emperor of Dajin, Dajin would not be far from the day of its demise!

The reason why Lin Mengya was so sure that no one would hurt her was because she knew clearly that on the surface, Dajin was at risk because of the emperor’s illness.
