Chapter 368 I Will Leave With You
Lin Mengya knew Baili Wuchen better than anyone else.
Their resentment towards each other would never end, unless one of them died.
Lin Mengya understood that clearly. She just did not want Ms. Tian and her son to be involved in this.
Lin Mengya’s clenched fists were clammy.
She would do whatever it took to stop Baili Wuchen from taking away Ms. Tian and her son.
“Rebellion?”
Lin Nansheng’s eyes suddenly turned sharp.
He sneered.
“My family has been serving this state in the frontier for more than ten years. We’ve shed blood for the land. Now you’re accusing me of rebellion? You’ll pay for your words!”
Suddenly, there was a flash of white light.
Lin Mengya held her breath. In a flash, the tip of her brother’s sword was inches away from Baili Wuchen’s neck.
“Hold on!”
To everyone’s surprise, Lin Mengya was the one who stopped Lin Nansheng’s hand.
She knew her brother was never an impulsive man. He wanted to kill Baili Wuchen because the vicious guy was smearing the name of the Lins, which was what Lin Nansheng resented most.
“Go away, Ya’er!”
Lin Nansheng growled, his eyes filled with fury.
Baili Wuchen was no longer the obscure counselor he used to be.
With his current ambitions and manipulation, he would not be satisfied with his current position as the command of the royal guards.
However vicious he was, he was still an official appointed by the royal court, like Lin Nansheng.
If he was killed by Lin Nansheng’s sword at this moment. Lin Nansheng’s career would come to an end.
“Bali Wuchen, this is all about you and me. Other people have nothing to do with it. I won’t let you take away Ms. Tian and her son. Leave with your people right now, or you’ll suffer!”
Lin Mengya scolded him, watching her furious brother.
Baili Wuchen smiled. His two long fingers gripped Lin Nansheng’s sword tip and moved it away from his neck.
“My lady, my princess. Do you really think this would be so easy?”
He glared at Lin Mengya with a vicious look in his eyes.
His resentful look showed that he wanted to tear Lin Mengya into pieces.
“Leave? Lin Mengya, we need to bring an end to what happened between us, but I’m here today for official duties. I have to take away the woman and her son. If you and your brother insist, it’ll be taken as an act of rebellion!”
Lin Mengya, Ms. Tian and Tian Ning were all victims today, but they had no power to deny Baili Wuchen’s high-sounding excuse.
Seeing Baili Wuchen’s vicious eyes, Lin Mengya bit her own lips and said,
“I’ll go with them if you insist.”
Lin Nansheng and Ms. Tian looked at Lin Mengya, surprised at the decision she made.
“No, Ya’er. You can’t go with him!”
Lin Nansheng was clear about the situation, he knew that the vicious, one-eyed man had a grudge against his sister.
He wondered why Lin Mengya initiated the move to go with Baili Wuchen. She was putting herself in danger in that way.
He would never let it happen.
“Brother, I was present when this incident happened. Baili Wuchen, there will be a day when we can put an end to what’s between us, but it will not be today. “Be impartial in Ms. Tian’s case. If you do anything to her personally, I will surely know how to crush you!”
Lin Mengya was preparing for the worst.
Ms. Tian and her son had a slim chance to survive, if they left without her.
If she went with them, she would be a princess who ended up in prison, due to the acts of some hooligans, which would be devastating to her reputation.
Above all, she knew Ms. Tian and Tianning had been set up.
Lin Mengya would never let anyone else around her suffer because of her!
“Well, Princess Yu seems to very decisive and reasonable, quite different from your violent brother. I can guarantee you that I won’t get anyone else involved in what’s between you and me. Let’s go, shall we?”
Baili Wuchen smiled viciously and looked so delighted.
Finally, he had the chance to step on Lin Mengya’s face. How could he not be delighted?
“You can’t go with us, my lady!”
Ms. Tian dragged Lin Mengya by her shoulder. The old woman looked so concerned.
Ms. Tian was blaming herself for having brought her son to the Capital City, or there would not be so much trouble.
Ms. Tian was heartbroken, just by the thought that her precious lady would be put behind cold bars, with her.
She would rather die for this.
Lin Mengya seemed to have read Ms. Tian’s mind long before she had the desperate idea.
“Don’t worry, he will not dare to hurt us!”
Ms. Tian looked up and saw the conviction in Lin Mengya’s eyes.
She knew she had to trust Lin Mengya, unconditionally.
She was delighted to find that the two kids she had brought up had grown strong enough to deal with such a difficult situation.
“Brother, please take Baizhi home with you. Don’t be too impulsive. “These people want us to panic. That’s why they were acting so wildly. Promise me you’ll get back home as soon as you’re out of here.”
Judging by the overall situation, Lin Mengya had already made up her mind that she should not be panicky.
She signaled to Lin Nansheng with her eyes, telling him to get help, once he was home.
Lin Nansheng understood his sister’s suggestion, but he was reluctant to leave.
The current situation was too hard for him to handle alone. It was already impossible for him to take the three people back with him.
When Lin Nansheng thought of this situation, he felt very unwilling.
He glared at Baili Wuchen and sheathed his sword.
“Baili Wuchen, don’t forget she’s with you only to help with the case. Be smart and be nice to her. Our family are not pushovers!”
Baili Wuchen seemed to ignore Lin Nansheng’s warning. He waved his hand and had someone arrest the three people.
Inside the room, the hooligans who had quietened down, were now tied up roughly by the royal guards.
Amidst their painful groans, Lin Mengya, Ms. Tian and Tian Ning were brought into a temporarily hired carriage.
“It’s all my fault… we would not have come here if I was healthy, that way, we would not bring so much trouble for Ya… my lady.”
Tian Ning had been standing in the cold yard for too long. He was coughing intensely again. His face turned red due to the strenuous walk just now. He looked weaker.
“You can call me Ya’er. It’s my fault, not yours. Those people were coming for me. I did not protect you well.”
Lin Mengya shook her head with a bitter smile. Jinyue had been trying to warn her of the danger for some time.
She was not alone. There were people she cared for in the Lin family and in Prince Yu’s Mansion. She could not bear to lose any of them.
These people now were now used as the fatal weapons against her, by her enemy.
They were her weak points, which could really be used to ruin her.
She felt lucky to have found out about the set-up early this time, or Ms. Tian and Tian Ning would be the cause of her life-long regret, just like Yue Ting.
“Ya’er… you don’t need to worry about us. Our life is too humble for you to bother about. I’m worried that this would affect your reputation.”
Ms. Tian looked so sad. Tian Ning was her only kid.
Lin Mengya was someone very precious to her.
In order to protect Lin Mengya from Shangguan Qing’s evil intentions, she took the kids far away. Now she still would not be afraid of anything, as long as it was for the two kids.
She felt sorry for her son.
“My reputation? Guess you don’t know how big it is in the capital city. I’ve experienced enough. Even going into prison would just be a curious adventure for me.”
Lin Mengya did not feel worried. It was not her first time to be imprisoned.
She had been imprisoned by the empress once. She could take this opportunity to revisit the old haunt. She would have the chance to know the difference between the prison of the royal guards and others.
“You’re as optimistic as before. You could have lived a much better life if your mother had not passed away that early…”
Speaking of Lin Mengya’s mother, Ms. Tina could not stop weeping bitter tears.
It suddenly occurred to Lin Mengya that Ms. Tian would be the best one to turn to, if she wanted to know what happened before.
Her eyes lighted up. She took Ms. Tian’s wrinkled hand and started to ask her about her childhood.
“Ms. Tian, when did I become a backward kid? Do you remember?”
Lin Mengya was very curious, because she heard it from her father and brother that she was once a clever girl.
She was confused about why she started acting crazily, and where those toxins inside her came from.
Ms. Tian wiped away her tears and said,
“You were frightened and became a bit backward, I remember. You were five years old then. One day I left you with Ruyue… Baizhi slept in the bedroom, because I had to send some medicine to Tian Ning. When I went back, Baizhi was still in bed, but you were not there anymore. I found you near the rockery. You felt so cold and your lips had turned blue. I was so scared and took you to the doctor immediately. When you woke up, you became less smart than before. I asked the doctor about it and he said it was because you’ve been scared so badly that you became mentally disabled.”
