Lin Mengya bent down and picked up the chess pieces that fell on the ground one by one.
Long Tianyu looked at her intently, but he had already understood her thoughts.
"You provoked him on purpose, right?"
Long Tianyu took the chess piece in her hand with a bit of confusion in his eyes.
"Yes, I just want to know why he targeted you like this."
Although Lin Mengya was unhappy that Long Tianyu was choked, she gradually discovered that Liu Xuan was not specifically targeting Long Tianyu alone.
It seems that there is some deep hatred towards the royal family of Jin Dynasty.
She just wanted to push Liu Xuan to a certain point today, and then see if she could get any clues.
In the end, Liu Xuan just said some ambiguous words.
But there is one thing that Lin Mengya can be sure of, based on what Liu Xuan said.
Maybe he was defrauded of money and sex by someone from the Long family.
After picking up the chess pieces, Lin Mengya's sudden attack of gossip turned on the detection mode.
A pair of dark eyes, he didn't know what he was thinking, but he was looking at him steadily. Even Long Tianyu felt a little confused.
What on earth is this girl thinking
"Prince Yu, are there any princesses in your royal family who are over eighteen years old and under twenty-five years old who are not so well-behaved and have walked around freely for a period of time?"
Looking at Lin Mengya's bright eyes, Long Tianyu thought hard and then slowly shook his head.
"This is strange. If I hadn't been defrauded by your Long family girl, how could I have said those words? When I have time in the future, I will definitely dig something out of Cousin Yu's mouth. Information coming.”
Gossip is a huge force that can push human beings forward.
Lin Mengya, who had made up her mind to get to the bottom of Liu Xuan's sad story, would stare at Liu Xuan with probing and affectionate eyes whenever she had free time.
As long as Liu Xuan turned around and smiled sheepishly at her, Lin Mengya would give him a creepy smile.
Even Long Tianyu, a jealous person who loves to be jealous, is glad that the person being targeted now is not him.
Instead, he and Zuo Qiuyu stood aside and watched the excitement.
The sun was shining brightly, and Lin Mengya gracefully held her little hands and put her little head on the car window.
She looks very delicate, but—
"Master Liu, are you tired? Are you thirsty? Do you want to come in for a cup of tea?"
Lin Mengya's smile was sweet and her voice was extremely clear.
But Liu Xuan felt a chilly breath running from his neck to his back.
He quickly shook his head. This aunt always looked at her like this as soon as she came out of the small town.
"Have you misunderstood me a little? Don't worry, I don't have any bad thoughts towards you. It's just that I think we must have had some misunderstanding before. So, now I want to have a heart-to-heart talk with you. What do you think? ?”
No matter how much Lin Mengya coaxes her, Liu Xuan will stay away from her.
It's a pity that he has two godlike teammates beside him. Every time, they will blame the matter of dealing with Lin Mengya on him.
When he saw Lin Mengya looking so ready, Liu Xuan wished he could have more legs and run far away immediately.
"Oh, it's boring. I thought he was so brave, but now he has given up!"
Their pace was very fast. I heard from Cousin Yu that by dusk, they would be able to reach the outer city of the old capital.
The old capital consists of two parts: the outer city and the inner city. There are a total of eight city gates in a radial shape.
However, the place where the original palace and Baicao Pavilion headquarters were located, that is, the inner city, was a dangerous area that could be retreated, defended, or attacked.
But now, Cousin Chen has moved the capital. The old palace was only looked after by some members of the clan, while some of the royal gardens were under the command of Baicao Pavilion.
When Lin Mengya heard what Zuo Qiuyu said, she was slightly startled.
I really don't know whether the person in charge of Baicao Pavilion thinks that he is bold or greedy.
Royal gardens, even if the emperor no longer wants them, cannot be appreciated easily.
Maybe, it's just like what Cousin Chen guessed. Years of pampering have given those people in Baicao Pavilion some thoughts that they shouldn't have.
At noon, the weather is relatively hot.
Lin Mengya got out of the car and found a small tea stall to sit down and rest in the cool air.
Liu Xuan naturally stayed away from her in the name of snooping around.
Seeing Mr. Liu's evasive appearance, Lin Mengya wanted to laugh a little.
Where did this guy hide, who was so aggressive the past few days
"My little cousin, if anyone is targeted by you, there will be nothing good to gain. Alas, thanks to the kindness of my brother-in-law, he took you in. Otherwise, who can suppress the devil like you?"
Zuo Qiuyu shook his head and sighed.
Of course, all he got was a blank stare of varying degrees from the couple.
Long Tianyu had been submissive to Lin Mengya for a long time, and now, the two of them were breathing out their anger from the same nostril.
"Drink some water."
A cup of clear, warm water was placed in front of Lin Mengya.
Long Tianyu knew that Lin Mengya never liked tea with a strong bitter taste, but the white peony root was injured, and the girl usually kept the good tea.
Now, all Lin Mengya can do is drink a glass of water to quench her thirst.
"Well, do you think there's something wrong with us arriving at the old capital so smoothly?"
Taking the water from Long Tianyu's hand, Lin Mengya took a sip and then whispered.
Now, getting closer and closer to the old capital, Lin Mengya smoothed out this line and found that although she encountered some troubles in Tianlong Mansion.
However, there were no other hardships along the way.
Of course, this is compared to the previous dangers and difficulties.
"We still need to be more careful. I also find it strange. However, we clearly found a lot of tails on the road. But they were all hanging far behind and refused to come forward."
Long Tianyu is extremely keen, although he protects Lin Mengya every day. But nothing about the surrounding situation could escape his grasp.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Mengya also felt strange and couldn't help but feel a little more worried.
But what she didn't know was that the reason why no one from those forces was willing to step forward was simply because they couldn't figure out whether the other party was a friend or an enemy.
Under this strange check and balance, Lin Mengya and his party were able to reach the old capital safely.
Otherwise, we may encounter many dangers along the way.
As the saying goes, if you have too many lice, you don't have to worry about being bitten, and if you have too many debts, you don't have to worry about them. Probably, that's what it means.
After resting enough, the group started on their way again.
Sure enough, not long after, the towering city wall gradually appeared in everyone's sight.
There was a faint scent of herbs in the air, not to mention Lin Mengya's sense of smell that was comparable to that of a dog's nose. Even ordinary people would be aware of the unique feeling.
Everyone couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The air is filled with the influence of countless kinds of elixirs. If you live here for a long time, some minor ailments will be cured without treatment.
This is also the reason why in the hundreds of years since the Lintian Kingdom was established as the capital, there has never been a plague in the capital.
Lin Mengya also understood. No wonder, I heard that some of the people who refused to move out of the old capital were all elderly members of the royal family.
This is a natural holy place for elderly care. If you are sick, you can be cured. If you are not sick, you can strengthen your health.
If it hadn't been for hundreds of years, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been possible.
A nursing home can be built here, but Cousin Chen wants to move Baicao Pavilion to the new capital as well.
Tsk—this is really a troublesome project.
Although there are eight city gates, only two gates are usually open.
The other six city gates will only be temporarily opened during special festivals.
Nowadays, there are so many people visiting that there is already a long queue as soon as they arrive at the city gate.
There were many people here, so Lin Mengya naturally didn't have to get out of the car.
However, there are so many people here, so it is naturally noisy.
Their group was conspicuous, and within a short while, someone recognized Prince Shen and Governor Liu.
Although the politeness was unavoidable, Lin Mengya was glad that the person who was smiling and talking to them in a roundabout way was not herself.
"Since Prince Shen is here, the person in the car must be Princess Anle, right? I heard that this Princess Anle is a beautiful woman. Why don't you invite Prince Shen to come out and let us open our eyes?" ?”
A cold gaze was cast on the man dressed like a butterfly.
However, this man was too slow to notice a certain handsome man with a dark complexion.
"This - I'm afraid it's inconvenient. My cousin doesn't like the excitement. Besides, she's young and can't speak, so as not to bump into everyone."
Although Zuo Qiuyu looked easy to talk on the surface, he was extremely bored in his heart.
He glanced at Long Tianyu secretly and found that the other party was already gathering anger, so he quickly changed the subject.
"Master Zhu, I heard that your father is also here this time?"
The man called Mr. Zhu really lives up to his name.
A pair of black bean-like eyes narrowed into slits, and then he said with some pride.
"That's natural. Our Zhu family may be able to produce a big shot this time. If it happens, I will ask Brother Zuo to take care of him in the future."
These words made Zuo Qiuyu's veins twitch.
He is just a young master from a minister's family, but now he actually wants to reach the sky through Baicao Pavilion. Actually, he called him brother and sister.
Qi returns to Qi, but now, it cannot be released.
None of this escaped Lin Mengya's ears.
His face turned cold, these people were really seeking death!
Rolling her eyes, she thought of a good idea.
After sorting out her clothes, she gently opened the car window with her jade hands.
"Oh, it's really boring in the car. Cousin, when will you arrive?"
