Lin Mengya looked at Qinghu who was looking back at memories, and the words she wanted to ask finally stuck in her throat.
Stretching out his hand, he gently held Qinghu's hand, and together with him, he walked freely among the people.
From a long distance, Lin Mengya could smell the alluring smell of chicken soup that had been simmered for a long time.
The Chaos stall is not big, with only three simple tables.
Qinghu pulled Lin Mengya and sat down at one of the tables.
"Boss, give me two bowls of chicken soup to mix it up! Girl, do you want to eat the meat pie from Lao Lu's? I know there are a lot of bad ones over there. Just wait for me and I'll buy it."
As soon as he sat down, Qinghu immediately started the mode of collecting treasures.
Although Lin Mengya felt that the two of them could not eat that much, it was rare for Qinghu to be so enthusiastic, and she was embarrassed to refuse.
He nodded and sat on the chair obediently to wait for him.
Seeing Qinghu's figure walking through the crowd, the corners of Lin Mengya's mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.
Speaking of which, Qinghu rarely has his own life since he came to her.
Maybe it was because he had been too lonely in the past few days. At least before leaving the Candle Dragon Society, Qinghu had never tried to live a normal life.
Therefore, Lin Mengya acquiesced and supported anything Qinghu wanted to do.
When a person lives his whole life, he must leave something behind. Otherwise, it would be a great loss.
The boss with nimble hands and feet filled two bowls of steaming hot buns in the blink of an eye.
"Thank you."
Nodding, Lin Mengya smelled the aroma of the food and felt that she was really hungry.
Just as I picked up the chopsticks and prepared to enjoy it, a stranger sat down opposite me.
Here, there is a mixture of good and bad, and she is sitting here as a woman. Naturally, she will be harassed by some people.
He lowered his head, not wanting this kind of person to ruin his rare good mood.
Unexpectedly, her temporary concession did not gain the other party's understanding. Instead, the man boldly moved to sit next to her.
Just as he was about to scold the other party, a slightly trembling voice of prayer suddenly made Lin Mengya stop.
"please help me... "
Judging from the voice, the other person should be a man.
It was also because the distance became closer that Lin Mengya smelled a fresh smell of blood under the cover of various smells.
Pretending to be nonchalant, Lin Mengya glanced at the man, only to find that it was a face that was extremely forbearing but without any blood at all.
The other party nodded towards her, his pale lips trying to show her a kind smile, but in the end, it was a bit difficult.
The man looked like an ordinary man, with big eyes and sharp eyebrows. He was very handsome, but his appearance was somewhat different from that of the man from Dajin. The eyebrows and eyes are more delicate, and the person looks particularly elegant.
"You are hurt?"
His left hand was tightly covering a certain place on his waist. Lin Mengya just glanced at it and knew that his current situation might not be good.
"Well, don't worry, I won't hurt you."
The man comforted her in a very low voice, but his eyes were looking in all directions warily, as if he was wary of someone.
"Eat it, it will help you stop bleeding."
Lin Mengya, who had no intention of being troubled, actually didn't want to wade into this muddy water.
However, she was in a good mood and wanted to be a good person once in a while.
Quietly, she took out the small medicine box she always kept on her body from her arms, took out a hemostatic pill, and gave it to the man.
Then, another bowl of wontons was placed in front of the man.
"I won't hurt you. When you finish eating, just leave."
She didn't want to be implicated in too many causes and effects. Besides, even if the bleeding could be stopped, it was still unclear whether the man could escape.
The man was a little surprised, looked at the pills in his hand, and then looked at her as if nothing had happened.
"Thank you."
With her pursed thin lips, she finally squeezed out only two simple words.
Hiding the pills in his hand with chopsticks, the man drank the chicken soup and drank the medicine she gave him without hesitation.
It seemed that the boiling hot chicken soup replenished the lost energy.
Maybe it was because his enemy had left temporarily.
In short, before Lin Mengya finished eating, the man disappeared into the crowd again.
Lin Mengya raised her head and looked around.
There were still crowds of people, as if nothing just happened had ever happened.
"strangeness."
She shook her head, if it weren't for the smell of blood in the air that had not yet dissipated, reminding her that an injured man had indeed been here just now.
She thought she was dazzled.
"I'm back, try it while it's hot... See someone familiar?"
Qinghu, who was in high spirits, finally returned to Lin Mengya with his big and small bags.
But when he saw her looking around with a blank look on her face, he also subconsciously looked around and found that there were no even half-familiar faces, so he couldn't help but ask.
"No... no. It's just that someone seemed to have bumped into me just now. It was probably a playful child."
With a careless eye, he was easily fooled by talking about this matter.
That man didn't look like a native of China, maybe he was a foreign businessman or something.
In short, maybe the two of them will meet again. Why would she say it and let everyone trouble themselves
Lin Mengya, who had already forgotten that episode, ate at several stalls under Qinghu's command.
Holding her round belly, Lin Mengya smiled with satisfaction on her face.
In modern times, there was a small night market stall outside the hospital where she practiced.
After getting off the night shift, tired colleagues usually go to the night market to finish off the dinner they won't have time to eat.
To be honest, she felt that of all the places in Kyoto, this was the most humane place.
"Look at you, you look like a piggy."
Qinghu looked at her lovingly, stretched out his hand, and helped her straighten her slightly messy hair.
Looking at her rosy little face and her belly that was about to burst, Qinghu felt a slight warmth in his heart for some reason.
Probably, it's because she has never had even the slightest dislike for her past.
In fact, this place was once his prison and also his lingering nightmare.
When he brought her here, maybe he was still a little frightened.
If she asked about her dirty past, or if she looked at this place with disgust.
No matter which one it is, I'm afraid those things will continue to cause trouble for me.
Unexpectedly, when he completely spread his former self in front of her in another form, all he got in exchange was her smiling face.
There seemed to be something in my heart that was quietly pulling away.
After living for more than half his life, he felt that for the first time, even breathing became much easier.
"I can't help it. Who made the food here taste so delicious? It's much more delicious than the chefs in our house. Can we come again next time?"
The sparkling eyes were filled with sincere expectations.
Qinghu had no choice but to agree and nodded gently. As expected, she was able to smile with crooked eyebrows.
After coming out of Flower Street, Qinghu was keenly aware of the flies that he had just shaken off all night before he had gone far, and captured their position again.
Seeing his serious face again, Lin Mengya also put away her smile.
After relaxing, I'm afraid it will be a more severe test.
Neither she nor the Lin family. I don’t know what will happen in this stormy sea.
"Let's go home."
Once again, back to the battlefield, once again, back to the vortex that can bite people.
This is her fate, the fate she can't get rid of, so she can only struggle hard!
In the evening, the Zhennan Hou Mansion was still brightly lit.
Lin Mengya and Qinghu had just returned when they were welcomed back to the room by Hongyu who was very anxious.
"What's wrong? Why are you so anxious?"
Lin Mengya sat in her chair leisurely and asked Bai Zhi to share the food she brought back with everyone.
But everyone looked gloomy and gloomy. This was not their usual style.
"If you tell me about this, don't be angry."
Several people pushed each other, and finally Hongyu stood up and spoke cautiously.
"Tell me, what else could make me angry?"
Lin Mengya looked indifferent. Anyway, given her current situation, it was probably nothing and nothing to be angry about anymore.
"That's good. In the evening, the emperor sent someone to deliver an oral message, saying that he wanted to choose another concubine for the prince."
Compared with Hong Yu's embarrassment, Lin Mengya just snorted coldly, and then took out the wrapped hibiscus cake to tease Mo Yan who was held in Tian's arms.
"What did I think it was? What is the emperor's will? Does he want me to go back to the palace and help him work together, or does he just need to inform me?"
Raising her brows, Lin Mengya seemed not to be affected by this incident at all.
The other people in the room did not dare to speak out loud, for fear that it would hurt Lin Mengya's wounds and make the master's current situation even worse.
"Just letting you know, after all, you are still the concubine of Prince Yu's Mansion."
Bite the bullet, Hongyu conveyed the emperor's attitude to Lin Mengya tactfully.
In fact, the original words of the oral instruction were to reprimand Lin Mengya for acting willfully as a concubine. Therefore, it is necessary to find a concubine with greater background to rectify the unhealthy trends in Prince Yu's palace.
To put it bluntly, this is another method of punishment for Lin Mengya.
After all, it is impossible for the emperor not to know that although she moved out of Prince Yu's Mansion, Long Tianyu stayed at Zhennan Hou Mansion every night.
If this continues, his imperial edict will become a joke.
If others knew about it, where would he put his face
Therefore, marrying a powerful concubine can tie up Long Tianyu and make him restrain himself. Secondly, it can also help his son get some help.
The emperor would naturally do something to kill two birds with one stone.
