Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess-Chapter 921 - Open and Aboveboard
Chapter 921 Open and Aboveboard
Lin Mengya looked at the Crown Prince calmly and had no intention of retreating.
Even if there were no other people around, the arrow just now could already tell the problem.
She was fully capable of protecting herself, but if he forced her again, he would lose more than he gained.
Gritting his teeth and sneering, the Crown Prince had no choice but to leave Ningqing Hall for the time being.
A trusted subordinate of his lowered his head and came forward, saying respectfully, “Your Highness, maybe she was just bluffing. Why don’t we bring our men in? Since Imperial Noble Consort doesn’t have anything to do with her, it won’t be impossible for her to keep protecting the Queen Consort.”
There was a trace of cruelty in the Crown Prince’s eyes, but he gave up his idea after a while.
“There’s no need. Since that bitch can’t run away, it means that she has fallen into my hands. I have my own arrangements for this matter. You don’t have to say anything about it.”
His trusted subordinate’s brows drooped and he looked as if in fear and trepidation.
The Crown Prince looked coldly at Ningqing Hall, which was covered with snow as a sneer appeared on his face.
“It will happen sooner or later. I can still wait.”
“Let’s go!”
He hurriedly retreated from the Ningqing Hall with his elite guards. Behind the towering palace walls, countless cyan troops gathered together in the end.
“Come out of the palace with me and catch the traitor, Long Tianyu, and his men alive!”
The palace gate was open, and the dark cyan and red intertwined with each other outside. Below the palace walls, countless hot blood splashed, and the blood gradually dyed the silvery white area red.
Today, there would be a battle in the end, and the winner would take it all. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮
“Are you alright, girl?”
As soon as the Crown Prince’s men left, Qinghu, who was dressed as a guard, sneaked into Ningqing Hall.
He held Lin Mengya’s hand and looked her up and down. After making sure that his little girl was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the foxy look in his eyes was no longer as carefree as before.
“I’m fine, and so is the Imperial Noble Consort. How are they? How is the battle going now?”
The Imperial Noble Consort and Lin Mengya looked at Qinghu at the same time.
Their eyes were filled with eagerness. They could only turn their eyes to Qinghu, who was the only source of the news.
“Prince Yu is fine. Don’t worry. The Seventh Prince is also on his side. Except for two princes who are in cahoots with the Crown Prince, the rest of them have come up with the excuse of fighting against the rebels to support us.”
Lin Mengya clenched her fists in her sleeves and frowned slightly.
After thinking for a while, she said, “No one can be trusted except for Long Qinghan. His Majesty is in the imperial study room, and our people can hold on for a while. Given His Majesty’s character, he won’t take it lying down. Please tell Long Tianyu that no matter what happens to His Majesty, he can’t get avaricious or advance rashly, nor can he force His Majesty to abdicate.”
The reason why the Crown Prince sent troops to rebel today was that he was actually deceived by them.
The Crown Prince had long since had the intention of disloyalty. He had prepared both the soldiers and weapons in secret.
As for the military expenditure, corruption cases of the Crown Prince’s faction happened every so often in the past few years.
But every time, the embezzled funds couldn’t be traced.
If it weren’t for Long Tianyu’s strategy and his father’s former subordinates in the army, it would have been hard for him to find out about this matter.
It was not too late for him to know it now. Moreover, Long Tianyu had been prepared for this, so he would not be caught unprepared by the Crown Prince.
“I’ll tell him about this. Speaking of which, the Crown Prince is quite impatient. He’s rebelling so desperately while His Majesty has only played chess in your courtyard for a few days. It’s obvious that he is reckless. As a reckless person leading the troops to fight, how is he going to defeat your prince?”
Qinghu showed a playful smile on his face.
During that period he stayed at Long Tianyu’s side, he had a thorough understanding of that man.
He had both the demeanor of an emperor and the wisdom of a soldier.
He looked cold on the surface, but in fact, he attached great importance to his relationships.
But Long Tianyu had always been fair and strict, and he would never tailor the law to suit his selfish ends.
It would be a blessing for the people of Dajin to have such a king.
“He didn’t know that every time His Majesty left, he sent someone to check the blanket. What they saw was the map of the Nation of Lintian that I deliberately laid on the table.”
The Emperor of Dajin wanted to cooperate, but he didn’t have good intentions.
In the past few days, she had played chess with His Majesty and asked Qinghu to hang around in front of him from time to time, so that the Crown Prince would think that they were discussing something secretly.
That night, inside the pastry box, which she used as an excuse to deliver, was the painting of the twelve counties, which was given by the Emperor of Lintian.
However, it was different from Qinghu’s map. It was covered with the seal of the Emperor of Lintian.
Originally, this was not urgent, but soon, the undercover sent by the Crown Prince to His Majesty’s side would hear such news.
Because Long Tianyu had won the heart of Princess Rongan, His Majesty was overjoyed.
Therefore, he decided to reward Long Tianyu with great honor. Although the emperor did not say what this honor was, someone with secret intentions would say something to the Crown Prince that the emperor wanted to replace the Crown Prince.
In addition, taking what happened at the banquet into account, His Majesty indeed got a little annoyed with him. Moreover, His Majesty was so close to Lin Mengya, which made the Crown Prince overthink the matter.
What had been going on gradually made the Crown Prince feel uneasy.
He was afraid that his position would be taken away by others. At that time, if Long Tianyu became the emperor, he would have no way to live.
Therefore, he decided to force the emperor to abdicate with his troops and assassinate him. Then, he would put all the blame on Long Tianyu.
After that, in the name of suppressing the rebels, he would catch Long Tianyu and his men in one fell swoop before they could react.
In this way, he would be able to be the Emporer with ease.
But how could there be such an easy thing in the world? He didn’t know that his most trusted lackey was Long Tianyu’s pawn.
It was Baili Wuchen. Baili Wuchen, who had been miserably stabbed in the eye by Lin Mengya, had escaped from Prince Yu’s Mansion. In fact, it was just a victim’s plot, a plot that he used to destroy himself to convince everyone at any cost.
Baili Wuchen, who had gotten rid of his inner demon, no longer had any obsession. He was clear-headed.
Therefore, when Lin Mengya made this plan with Long Tianyu, their biggest secret weapon was Baili Wuchen.
The Crown Prince had always thought that he was smart as if the whole world was under his control.
But he didn’t know how to control people at all.
Some people could be driven by interests.
However, some people attached great importance to sincerity.
Baili Wuchen was the kind of person who would die for his bosom friends.
Long Tianyu, the cold-looking man, was surrounded by many good brothers who would help him at all costs.
From this point of view, it could be seen that his character was much better than the disgusting Crown Prince.
“Qinghu, I’ll have to trouble you to help him.”
Her voice was soft and her beautiful eyes were full of expectation.
Qinghu didn’t want to go. He wanted to stay here and protect her.
However, after seeing the expectation in Lin Mengya’s eyes, he could not bear to refuse her.
It would be hard for anyone to refuse her.
With a wry smile, he stood up leisurely.
“All right. I know you can’t see him in person, so you are always worried. There’s not much I can do, but I can protect him for you.”
Even if he had to die for it, he would let Long Tianyu return to her side unscathed.
Because that was her lifelong happiness.
As for him, he would do his best to make her happy.
“You will also come back unscathed.”
He turned around and was about to leave, but she grabbed his sleeve with her hands.
With a slight shake of his body, Qinghu felt a warm current flowing from his heart to other parts. Finally, it surged through his whole body and gave him great courage and strength.
“Qinghu, you’re my brother. If you don’t cherish yourself, I’ll be devastated. So, will you please forgive my selfishness and protect yourself?
There was a hint of pleading in Lin Mengya’s gentle voice. The only person she trusted most was Qinghu.
The love between them was more than that of siblings, and it had long surpassed the love of men and women.
She knew that she was Qinghu’s only reason to live, and she also knew that she had saved this man back from hell.
Therefore, she did not owe him.
Although there would be a lot of pain if he lived, only by living could he feel pain, bleed, and cry.
Therefore, she wanted Qinghu to live.
Only in this way could he have a chance to once again experience the beauty of life and the beauty of mountains and rivers.
“Little girl, you always know me best.”
He turned around and gently held her fair and delicate face with his slender and strong fingers.
She was his shackle, as well as the only sunshine in hell.
In this life, they were destined to meet, but they were destined not to be together.
But he didn’t want to have an afterlife. If there was really an afterlife, he hoped to have a daughter like her.
Their family affection could not be severed, and he only hoped to use his whole life’s strength to protect her.
He did not know whether this kind of feeling was that between a man and a woman.
But the only thing he knew was that she was his only reason to live.
“Relax. I’ll be back. If I die, what if Long Tianyu bullies you in the future? Lin Nansheng is too weak. I’m the only one who can teach Long Tianyu a lesson, so I can’t die.”
At this moment, Qinghu completely lets go of the last bit of obsession in his heart.
He could be her elder brother, her father, or someone else to her.
The relationship between him and her was open and aboveboard, so he had nothing to fear.
“Well, if anything happens to you, I’ll spend all your allowance!”
Lin Mengya said that fiercely on purpose, her eyes widened, but she couldn’t put on a fierce look.
“Uh… Humph, I’ll go to your husband to ask for it! He stole the girl that I’ve painstakingly raised. It’s only right for him to provide for me when I’m old!”
Qinghu was a cool man after all. After he finished speaking, he turned around quickly.
He walked from slow to fast, and in the end, he flashed out of the gate of Ningqing Hall.
Lin Mengya stood there. All the people she cared about were fighting for their own goals.
“Therefore, I can not lose!”
