Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 925

Chapter 925 Bad Intentions

The words of the lead palace maid implied something. When Lin Mengya was about to ask more questions, she found that they had arrived at the courtyard where they had hidden before.

Under the cover of Baisu and the lead palace maid, Baisu and Lin Mengya quickly returned to the small courtyard.

Although it was freezing cold outside, the two little palace maids slept well because they were covered with Lin Mengya’s cotton coat and cloak.

Although Ling Mengya had rolled in the snow before, the cotton coat had been burnt dry by the charcoal fire in the room.

Baisu removed the acupuncture point seals of the two girls and comforted them with a few words. She told them not to make a sound and then secretly escorted them away.

The white cloak was the best color for protection on the snowy ground.

Lin Mengya carefully hid in a corner. There was the secret edict from the Emperor of Dajin on her chest, but she was thinking about the words of the lead palace maid.

For some reason, she felt that the palace maid, who was not ordinary, would meet her again.

There came light footsteps around her. Lin Mengya immediately hid in the corner and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was Baisu coming back.

“Have they been sent back?”

Baisu nodded. Those two little palace maids were quite clever.

And when they arrived at the imperial kitchen, the lead palace maid had already quietly arranged everything and no one doubted it.

“That sister said that although the Crown Prince has sealed off the palace, there are so many people in the palace, so they would need to eat and drink. Besides, the Crown Prince has specially instructed that except for the central palace, only our Ningqing Hall will hold the entertainment.”

Hearing that, Lin Mengya merely smiled.

“The Crown Prince wants to usurp the throne. However, he is not bold enough.

“He might have actually believed my nonsense. As the saying goes, like father, like son.

“The father and son are the same. They think that they are smart and that they have figured out everyone’s thoughts.

“But they don’t know that the most difficult thing to control in the world is the human heart.”

She returned to Ningqing Hall without anyone noticing. As soon as she entered the hall, the Imperial n.o.ble Consort hurried over.

She held Lin Mengya’s cold hands as she looked her up and down uneasily.

“Child, why didn’t you tell me about your leaving? It’s chaos outside. It will be bad if you get hurt.”

The silver charcoal was burning in the room, so it was not cold, but the Imperial n.o.ble Consort’s face was a little pale. It must be because she was worried about her.

Lin Mengya smiled apologetically.

“Mother, I shouldn’t have made you worried, but this Imperial Palace is not a dangerous place for us. However, during the time I was out, did anyone come to visit?”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked to the inner hall together. Apart from Jinyue, who was making tea, there was no trace of anyone else inside.

The people brought by Imperial n.o.ble Consort must have been hiding in the dark to protect them.

In fact, in addition to the inner hall, all the other rooms in the Ningqing Hall had been prepared with braziers.

In this way, no one would be freezing, and it was also convenient for Lin Mengya’s and Imperial n.o.ble Consort’s people to hide on the spot.

Lin Mengya cherished her people very much. She couldn’t do such a thing as sacrificing her men to destroy the enemy.

“There is no one else here. By the way, what’s going on in other palaces? Especially Concubine Xian, she is on bad terms with the Empress, just like us. I’m afraid that she’s been hurt now.”

Imperial n.o.ble Consort frowned, and there was a deep worry in her affections.

She had gotten the hint from Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu before, so she was prepared for it.

But in order to ensure the safety of the plan, she did not tell anyone else.

“The Crown Prince won’t do anything to anyone for the time being. The outcome is yet to be decided. Most of the people who are involved in this matter are the Crown Prince’s and Prince Yu’s men. If the Crown Prince dares to ma.s.sacre the people in the imperial harem, he will be the enemy of the whole country. He won’t be able to take over the throne.”

Lin Mengya could tell from the Crown Prince’s att.i.tude towards her and the Emperor.

The Crown Prince wanted to force the Emperor to abdicate, but he wanted to make it right and proper.

Because he was the Crown Prince. At least in his heart, the next emperor had to be him.

Therefore, no one would object no matter when he took the throne.

Furthermore, there were still certain people watching from the shadows.

They had a smart plan, thinking that it was just a matter of the Long family.

No matter who won in the end, the winner would be the orthodox one, and they would admit him.

They were indeed cunning. They wouldn’t loose the falcon until they saw the hare.

“That’s good, that’s good. I wonder how Yu’er is doing. I hope he’s safe with Qinghan.”

Hearing Lin Mengya’s words, the Imperial n.o.ble Consort finally felt at ease.

Sitting on the soft couch, she kept reciting Buddhist scriptures.

Before they knew it, it was getting dark.

Lin Mengya didn’t have much to do for the time being. She could only sit by the bed and stare at everything outside.

It was still snowing heavily, and the acc.u.mulated snow reached half a man’s height under the window.

She hoped that the heavens would grant her wishes.

“I don’t know when this d.a.m.n weather will come to an end.”

It was a mansion that was only a few miles away from the Imperial Palace. No one knew which lord it belonged to, but now it had been temporarily taken over for use by Long Tianyu and his faction.

The gate and the outer wall had been destroyed while soldiers in red light armor kept coming in and out.

The large courtyard now looked like a bandit’s lair.

Long Qinghan, dressed in dark red armor, leaned against the short wall and cursed.

“You’d better be content. If it weren’t for the defensive fort falling that came out all of a sudden, do you think the reinforcements arranged by the Crown Prince out there could arrive so late?”

Qinghu, who was also wearing the same armor, could not help rolling his eyes at that guy.

He had changed out of the long robe he used to wear. With such a thin and elegant posture, even if he put on the armor, he would still have a unique romantic temperament.

But it didn’t make people feel that he was a boy who looked like a girl while he had a kind of cold deterrence.

He had no good impression of the men of the Long family.

However, he had no choice but to listen to Long Tianyu because of his little girl.

As for the others, he would never listen to them.

Tsk, I’m just sighing. You’re such a weird person. You always have ten lines to talk back to me. Believe it or not, I’ll tell my Third Sister-in-law and ask her to teach you a lesson.”

Long Qinghan, who was clad in armor, was actually just stubborn and reluctant to admit mistakes. His usual demeanor of a n.o.ble young master had long since disappeared.

Although the armor was useful, it was heavy.

After a day of fighting, his physical strength had already been severely exhausted.

His handsome face, which had been in high spirit, was now dark-rimmed and haggard.

The reason why he insisted on standing in the snow instead of entering the house and warming himself up by the stove was that he was afraid that once he relaxed, it would delay the opportunity for combat.

Because the battle for the throne had just begun.

“Don’t forget that your Third Sister-in-law is my biological sister.”

Qinghu grinned. Long Qinghan could not help but s.h.i.+ver at the sight of his white teeth.

Qinghu, who had defeated Long Qinghan with his words, walked into the house and said coldly, “Your injury is not serious, is it? Don’t die, lest my girl becomes a widow.”

The doors of the mansion were opened in all directions. Only a man in bright clothes was sitting at the head of the table.

His bright red armor was bright, like a raging fire burning on the snowy ground.

It was as if any kind of darkness or coldness could be burned to nothingness by him.

The man’s facial features were handsome and cold. Although his face was pale, he would not be easily looked down upon.

Especially those eyes, which were as deep as a deep pond, always made people unconsciously submit to him.

Long Tianyu raised his eyes and glanced at Qinghu.

No matter how reluctant the latter was, he had to withdraw from the lobby.

“I’m fine. Don’t tell her about this.”

Long Tianyu’s voice was low and hoa.r.s.e. In order to make this scene more realistic, he suffered a little injury.

But he had kept his vital parts from being attacked, so he was doing okay now.

Holding the letters sent by the other princes in his hand, he narrowed his eyes slightly and gave off a dangerous aura.

“It seems that Ya’er is right. These people don’t have any good intentions.

“I’m afraid that as soon as they make it into the Imperial Palace, someone will rush into Father’s study and force him to write an imperial edict to abdicate. Then, a new round of killing will begin.

“To me, my efforts will be meaningless.

“Therefore, I must wait for a perfect opportunity.”

“Send a letter back to the princes. Tell them that my troops have been fighting for a day and a night and that they are really tired and have to rest. If they want to attack first, they can do as they wish.”

Long Tianyu threw the high-sounding letters into the brazier indifferently.

There was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes as he watched the orange-red flames swallow those lies. There was no trace of regret in his eyes.

The Crown Prince’s men had come in an aggressive manner earlier, and most of the battles were taken care of by Long Tianyu’s men.

Those princes were either late or claimed to lack in soldiers, so they could only stay in the rear.

Now that the Crown Prince’s dash had been ruined, he hid in the Imperial Palace and did not dare to come out.

“Those princes began to plot like this, and they want to use me to fight their battles.

“Do they think I’m a fool?”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Lin Kui was still by his side, but at this time, he also changed out of his suit as a guard.

He was born in the army, and now he was wearing armor, which suited him better than anyone else.

However, the entire Capital City was devastated by the internal strife.

Many people couldn’t escape in time. They could only hide in a relatively safe place and wait for the final result.

Fortunately, Princess Yu had been well-prepared. She had arranged a lot of mansions in the suburbs of the Imperial Palace.

Those courtyards were s.p.a.cious and inconspicuous. More importantly, both the courtyards and the houses had been hollowed.

Many people could be hidden in the secret chambers underground.

Therefore, they had already evacuated a lot of people near the Imperial Palace a few days before they started the trouble.

Unexpectedly, not only was Princess Yu resourceful, but she also considered these things thoroughly.

All of them, who knew the inside story, admired the kindness of the princess.

It seemed that Prince Yu was the smartest one. In the vast crowd, only he could be so perceptive to take the princess as his wife.

Although Lin Kui was thinking about that, his footsteps did not stop.

He ordered several messengers to report back to their masters with letters. Just as he was about to go back to report, he was stopped by a voice behind him.
