"Once, I went with my father to greet the queen. Oh, by the way, she also rewarded me with a lot of things. After my father came back, he always asked me to be grateful for the queen's grace. So, I often I was asked to wear them all. What, is there anything wrong?"
Shangguan Hui carefully looked at her clothes and jewelry. She had carefully inspected these items before. There would be no problems at all.
But the way Lin Mengya looked at her made her feel that something was wrong.
"I'm just saying, Queen, why would you let such a talent like you go? It seems that you have been targeted by the Queen. Recently, do people often bring up some political matters in front of you?"
She just said, with Shang Guan Hui's talent and scheming, how could the queen let her drift with the crowd
All the previous indulgences were just to cultivate her into the best chess piece.
Shangguan Hui thought for a while, and suddenly his expression changed, looking a little unbelievable.
"No way! It can't be her!"
Lin Mengya looked at Shangguan Hui and sighed quietly.
People's hearts are unpredictable, and she has also experienced the pain of being betrayed by someone close to her.
Therefore, it is natural to know how uncomfortable Shangguan Hui is in his heart.
"I think it's better for you to be careful. Now it seems that the post I gave you is not a bad thing. Whether you can win in a dangerous situation depends entirely on you."
The queen may not know that Shangguan Hui likes her brother, but she must have noticed her resourcefulness.
Otherwise, she would not have bribed those close to her, deliberately revealed the matter to Shangguan Hui, and then waited for her to analyze the strong relationship and act according to the plan.
However, there should be many advisers around the queen, and the reason why Shangguan Hui stands out must be something that the queen values.
Looking at Shangguan Hui carefully again, is it possible that there is something else that she doesn't know about
Still, she was simply putting the cart before the horse on this matter.
If the queen knew in advance that she would choose a wife for her brother. Then, if Shangguan Hui knew about it, everything could be explained smoothly.
After all, no matter how powerful the advisers around the queen are, who can compare to Shangguan Hui in matters that concern the ladies of various boudoirs
"Of course I know this, but there seems to be something unusual in the Queen's Palace these days. I don't know where the Queen invited a monk from, saying that they would go to Huguo Temple to pray together. I have met this monk once, and this monk, There’s something evil about it.”
Shangguan Hui is worthy of being Shangguan Hui. After a brief absence, he regained his former shrewdness.
Now that she knows that the queen intends to cultivate her, this is not a bad thing. If she can truly become the queen's confidant, then her value to Lin Mengya will be even greater.
Moreover, she also understands. The reason why the Queen wanted to get rid of Miss Jin's family was simply to give the Queen's own people to Lin Nansheng.
As a result, she had to be even faster to prevent others from getting in first.
"Monk? Aren't you going to Huguo Temple to perform a ritual? Could it be that he is the master of Huguo Temple?"
Shangguan Hui shook her head. She just felt that the monk was so sinister and strange that he really didn't look like a compassionate monk.
"No, I don't know where the monk was invited from. I heard from the aunt in the Queen's Palace that not long after the monk arrived, he said that a little palace maid was a monster. As a result, the little palace maid disappeared. If A truly compassionate master would definitely not do such a thing. Moreover, he has a smell. I can’t tell what kind of spice it is, but every time I smell it, I feel very weird. No. Sandalwood, not rouge, in short, makes me feel a little disgusted."
After listening to Shangguan Hui's description, Lin Mengya suddenly remembered something.
He asked Hong Yu to quickly get the special Yizhi, and then asked Shangguan Hui to smell it to see if this smell was that of that weird monk.
"That's the smell! Although it's very light, I'm sure it's the smell of that monk. It's strange, this is obviously the queen's decree, how could it be tainted with that person's scent?"
Shangguan Hui was filled with doubts, and Lin Mengya had no less questions than her.
"This time, will he also go to Huguo Temple with the Queen?"
Shangguan Hui nodded. After Lin Mengya's prompting, she suddenly discovered that her family seemed to pay more attention to her since she came back from the palace to greet the queen last time.
No matter what happens in the capital, he will always report it to her.
Now it seems that all this was arranged deliberately by the queen, and she is afraid that in the end, it will be easier for her and Lin Mengya.
"Please help me pay attention. I'm afraid that this person will be harmful to me. By the way, since you are here, I can't let you worry all day long. There is something I also need to ask for your opinion. If, let If you and the lady from the Jin family marry into the Lin family, will it wrong you?"
Originally, Lin Mengya wanted to wait until the matter was finalized before mentioning it to Guan Hui.
But now that the queen knows about this, I'm afraid the mess must be cut quickly.
Otherwise, things will change later, and the first thing the Queen will do after she regains her composure is to single-handedly manipulate her brother's marriage.
By then, the Lin family will really have no peace.
Shangguan Hui didn't object, but his eyes darkened and he looked a little bitter.
"If you can tell me, I have no reason not to agree. Don't worry, I'm not that kind of stingy woman. Even if she is my wife and I am my concubine, as long as I can marry him, I will have no complaints."
In Lin Mengya's heart, she still felt somewhat deeply sorry.
After all, with Shangguan Hui's conditions and the queen's respect, she was worthy of being a princess, let alone a small general's palace.
Unexpectedly, for the sake of her brother, she could share her husband with another woman and share her little love.
Although all of this was Shangguan Hui's choice, Lin Mengya knew that she was the biggest pusher.
"Feel sorry."
It sounded grand, but Lin Mengya knew that in fact all of this was due to her selfishness.
In a certain aspect, she and the Queen were actually the same type of people.
For their own interests, they can sacrifice anyone. The difference is that the queen always uses high-sounding reasons, while she, even when taking advantage of others, always says it so straightforwardly.
Speaking of which, they are not good people.
"No, I did it willingly. Besides, none of the young masters in the capital have three wives and four concubines. Others are not as lucky as you. I also envy you. The prince is really devoted to you." Speaking of this, Shangguan Hui felt at ease.
To be honest, Lin Mengya had been away for several months before. She was so afraid of him that she had already forgotten the agreement she made with her.
Now, Shangguan Hui is finally at ease. He was even more devoted to Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya smiled and did not reply.
This kind of single-minded love is probably not a good thing in this time and space.
One is honey and another is arsenic/frost. In order to defend this hard-won love, she still doesn't know how many hurdles she has to go through.
Shangguan Hui is smart and well-behaved, so he naturally knows the mystery.
After sitting for a while, he said goodbye and went back.
Lin Mengya sat alone in the flower hall thinking, and she sent the four girls out.
The sudden appearance of the monk, the disappearing palace maid, the strange fragrance.
All of this made Lin Mengya feel a little uneasy from her soul.
"Ouch—"
Just as she was thinking, outside the door, there suddenly came a roar that shook the sky.
"Howl-"
Immediately afterwards, there was another wild wolf howl, and Lin Mengya's eyes were dazzled. Suddenly, two lightning-like shadows rushed towards her in an instant.
However, the bloody and cruel scene that others remembered did not appear. Instead, the two big heads lay obediently on Lin Mengya's knees.
He stuck out his tongue and licked Lin Mengya's little face passionately until she was tickled and giggled. The two big guys lay lazily on the ground, but their expressions were still the same submissive.
"Have you had enough fun? Do you know you're going home? I've been back for so long, and you two don't even know you're going home to see me. Could it be that you were abducted by some heartless person?"
Lin Mengya gently patted the big heads of the two guys, but the words were addressed to the figure who was frozen outside.
Ever since Zhu Yan lived with Xiaohu and Xiaobai, this guy seemed to have found the joy of life again.
It is said that he personally took the two guys to hunt in the woods on the outskirts, causing a lot of excitement in the originally quiet forest.
Fortunately, the two little guys have been raised well. Although they will not take the initiative to get close to others, at least they will not take the initiative to attack strangers.
However, Lin Mengya felt that such an environment would help the two little guys regain their wild nature, so she did not interfere.
However, one person and two animals ran so crazy that they even had food and shelter in the forest for half a month.
She also has the extremely arrogant young master Zhu Yan, who really wants to be the ancient version of Tarzan!
"Woo..."
After being taught a lesson by Lin Mengya, the two clever little guys started to moan softly as if they were trying to please.
Looking at their extremely dog-legged appearance, a cold snort came from outside.
Then, Zhu Yan couldn't help but walked up to Lin Mengya. In addition to contempt, there was also deep jealousy in his eyes.
"Two stinking beasts! Isn't she just a woman? Why do you listen to her so much!"
It was still the same love-and-kill relationship, but the two beast masters were in a good mood today. Their huge eyes just glanced at Zhu Yan's thin body with disdain, and then they narrowed their eyes and squinted under Lin Mengya's touch. Comfortable purring.
Suddenly, Zhu Yan's face, already darkened by the sun, couldn't help but become a little darker.
