Seeing Xiaoyu's softened attitude, Lin Mengya was naturally reluctant to be strict with him anymore.
Although looking at the current situation, it is a bit difficult for Xiaoyu to accept Axiu for a while.
But there is a saying that goes well, love grows over time, right
Isn’t that what people show on TV? Two men and women who have no feelings and are even enemies will slowly turn into love after experiencing some things.
She doesn't want to be a feudal patriarch who decides other people's feelings.
But Axiu is definitely a good girl. It’s hard to say whether this skinny monkey of hers is worthy of her.
"I know you don't like to be forced by others, but Axiu is really a good girl. I think it's really embarrassing that you are always at war with others and I am caught in the middle. Why don't you give me some face? How about being a little more polite to Axiu from now on?"
If before, Wanyanyu still seemed to have a sworn feud with Axiu, now, because of Lin Mengya's relationship, there has been a slight change.
In fact, when he was imprisoned in Axiu's boudoir that night, it was that girl who thought of a way to help him escape.
Therefore, his anger towards Axiu was not as strong as towards other Dongfang family members.
Now that Lin Mengya has repeatedly endorsed Axiu, it is natural that when they meet next time, Xiaoyu will not say those heart-wrenching words in a barrage like now.
"Okay, I promise you. But sister, the Dongfang family is not as simple as you think. Except for that Axiu, you'd better have less contact with other people."
Lin Mengya immediately nodded obediently. In fact, Xiaoyu thought a little too much.
The reason why Axiu came to find her in person is that her true identity must be known only to Axiu or the two confidants around her.
In this case, other people in the Dongfang family should not put their heads on hers.
"Did you suffer any injuries last night?"
After calming down for a while, Lin Mengya took Xiaoyu's hand and looked at him worriedly.
In fact, she originally asked Xiaoyu to move to the palace, firstly to get rid of her dislike, and secondly for his safety.
But he didn't expect that the Yao family had the gall to arrest someone on the street yesterday.
She was lucky, it happened that Axiu got the news and came to look for him in person.
I just don’t know what Xiaoyu went through last night.
"I'm fine, don't worry. Those guys can't hurt me yet. However, no one has been caught alive. When I go back, I will report this matter to my father and let him punish the Yao family severely!"
Xiaoyu is no longer the young boy he was before.
There was a hint of viciousness in his eyes at some point.
Even when dealing with enemies, he was a little more ruthless.
Lin Mengya didn't know if this was a good thing, but at least now, only in this way could he save himself.
And all she could do was help him.
Lowering her head, Lin Mengya didn't know what she was thinking.
It wasn't until the carriage was approaching the palace gate that she raised her head, and shook her head slightly under Xiaoyu's doubtful eyes.
"I think it's better not to let the king know about this matter for the time being. However, it is indeed a fact in everyone's eyes that you were hunted down last night. I don't think so. Just tell the king that it was just some deliberate provocation. Just a gangster."
Lin Mengya's words made Xiaoyu even more puzzled.
His sister is a person who must take revenge. How she punished those members of the Willow Leaf Gang back then is still fresh in his memory.
But why did his sister advise him not to speak out about this matter
"If you were caught alive last night, the wind may not be able to blow to the Yao family. Don't forget, even if a queen is killed, the Yao family still has an eldest prince in their hands. What's more, Regarding the Queen's matter, the Yao family's attitude is really thought-provoking. I think they will never be without countermeasures. Maybe what happened last night was just a premeditation."
Lin Mengya thought about it, trying to figure out the Yao family's intentions.
When she went out with Xiaoyu last night, it was definitely an impromptu decision.
Even if the Yao family learned the news and wanted to catch Xiaoyu, they should have made a hasty decision.
But who is Xiaoyu? He is currently the ninth prince who is the most favored by the king and the one who has high hopes for him.
Could it be that one or two of the Yao family were really like the queen in the palace, so stupid that they would seize this hot potato to completely anger the king
Or, they have long been disobedient.
Whether it is directly launching a coup or using force to surround the eldest prince and ascend the throne, it all carries considerable risks.
What's more, other aristocratic families will never sit idly by.
Unless they were waiting for an opportunity.
An opportunity to be easily suspected and exposed to the king.
But why do they do this
Frowning her brows, Lin Mengya felt that she couldn't see clearly now.
"No matter what the reason is, since sister said so, then I will do it. But what you said makes sense. I also feel that the Yao family did not seem to be afraid of exposing their identity when they arrested me so openly. Is it possible? , they still want to take the initiative, why can’t they be punished by their father?”
Xiaoyu's muttering voice made Lin Mengya's mind flash.
"That's right! That's it! Xiaoyu, you are so smart!"
Lin Mengya grabbed Xiaoyu's hand with some excitement, and said "Hmm" when she went up.
Xiaoyu, who had been kissed on the face, was almost petrified and happy, looking at her sister in front of her.
But what exactly did he say
"Go and ask Uncle Lie right away and ask him to help us investigate whether something has happened to the Yao family. Remember, don't believe any superficial phenomena or let go of any clues. Got it?"
Regarding Lin Mengya's sudden seriousness, even if Xiaoyu was confused, she knew that her sister would never be innocent.
The carriage stopped in front of the palace gate. After Lin Mengya repeatedly told Xiaoyu to be careful, she worriedly walked towards Fengyu Garden.
If things are really as she guessed, then the battle for Lieyun Kingdom will be more difficult than she expected.
Now, the temporary peace is just a pool, hiding the turbulent water.
What the final truth is, I'm afraid only time can tell her.
As soon as he returned to Feng Yuyuan, he saw Bai Su standing at the door, waiting for him expectantly.
After seeing Lin Mengya, Bai Su immediately ran over and carefully checked Lin Mengya up and down as usual. After making sure that the other party was unharmed, he felt relieved.
"I'm fine, don't worry about it. By the way, I heard from Xiaoyu that you were taken away by Wanyan Lie's people. Sorry, we don't know what the taboos are."
Of course Bai Su wouldn't blame Lin Mengya. In fact, even she didn't understand why she was taken away last night.
"Miss, don't say that. In fact, I have forgotten it a long time ago. I blame myself for this. But I also want to know why I am the only one who cannot go to the Witch Temple. Unfortunately, even my master couldn't tell me."
Bai Su's face showed a rare expression of helplessness.
She rarely went to the Witch Temple. Even if her master sometimes took her to do errands, he would usually ask her to wait far away from the Temple.
She hadn't been to that place for several years.
If she hadn't gone out with the lady and the others last night, I'm afraid even she would have forgotten about it.
"That's good. Of course they have their reasons. Has Madam come back?"
The two people were talking as they walked towards Fengyu Garden.
Everything is still as usual, everyone is doing their own thing silently.
It was just after seeing Lin Mengya that she nodded slightly and said hello.
"Well, Madam hasn't come back yet. Besides, someone sent news this morning that the Queen passed away from illness."
died? Lin Mengya stopped in her tracks, raised her eyebrows in surprise, and looked at Bai Su.
"Who sent the news? Is it reliable?"
"It was Ning Qiu who was beside Madam who personally sent back the news, saying that the eldest queen fell ill and died suddenly. She also said that she would wait for you to come back. But from the look of her, she didn't seem to be in a hurry. How about that? Miss, after you change your clothes, come over."
Nodding, she had already thought of the outcome of the great queen.
But he didn't expect that it would end in death.
Speaking of which, although this woman is pitiful, she is really hateful.
But why did the Madam and the King downplay the death of the Queen so lightly
Not to mention such a big thing, Ning Qiu actually still had time to inform everyone.
In response to Ning Qiu's non-urgent attitude, there was nothing unusual about the palace.
Thinking about it, the king and his wife probably wanted to deal with the death of the eldest queen coldly.
After changing into plainer clothes, Lin Mengya took Bai Su and walked to the king's palace.
Along the way, Lin Mengya didn't see anything unusual.
Everything in the palace was as usual, as if the Queen's life and death had no impact on the entire palace.
This is a bit too ruthless, right
But when she stepped through the door of the king's palace, she saw the king and his wife playing chess leisurely and contentedly.
Waiting respectfully in the corner, when the lady heard the commotion, she glanced at her with a smile, waved her hand, and told everyone else to leave.
"You're here. I heard that you and Yu'er went out to play last night. How about it? It's the Witch Queen's birthday. Is the street quite lively?"
Madam's tone today was as gentle as ever, and there was even an unusual sense of ease added to it.
Come to think of it, I'm still in a good mood.
"The street is very lively. It seems that everyone admires the Witch Queen."
The fight on the chessboard should have reached its final moments.
The lady held a white piece in her fingers, and after thinking for a long time with a slight frown, she gently dropped the piece.
"My lord, you lose."
