Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Few people would come out in a downpour.

Almost everyone stayed indoors, enjoying a rare moment of leisure.

Holding an unfolded brown oil paper umbrella, Lin Mengya was looking around the imperial palace.

She closed her eyes from time to time, seeming to be recollecting something, and then continued walking around the imperial palace.

The location recorded on the map seemed to be in the vicinity.

Lin Mengya looked around and realized that she had arrived at the innermost part of the imperial palace.

People rarely came here. Moreover, ordinary people could not find the place where she was going.

The downpour made the smells lingering in the air faint and people lose their sensitive five senses.

However, this had no influence on her.

The Shen Nung system was operating swiftly. After making sure there was nothing suspicious around, Lin Mengya stepped into an inconspicuous palace.

She had planned to come here after wiping out all the suspicious forces in the imperial palace.

Unexpectedly, she learned her father and brother had been captured. In order to save them, she had to take the risk.

After repeatedly making sure she was followed by no suspicious people, Lin Mengya entered the dilapidated palace alone.

She did not expect there was such a shabby place in the imperial palace.

In the shabby palace, water leaked from various parts of the ceiling, and the ground was piled up with junk that had decayed in the water. Lin Mengya folded the umbrella and moved forward in the palace with difficulty.

The most detailed information offered by the map in the jade ruler was merely the location of this courtyard.

It seemed that it would take her some effort to find the final destination.

Apart from this place, there were indeed no other suspicious places around.

Presumably no one had visited this secluded courtyard for a long time.

However, it was strange that almost all the other palaces, even including the place where Wanyan Jing met his followers, had been maintained every once in a while, so they would never become so dilapidated.

Lin Mengya's sense of hearing, which was much keener than that of ordinary people, enabled her to detect some light sounds.

After looking around, Lin Mengya immediately hid behind a broken table. Fortunately, it was dark here, and it was raining outside, so she presumably would not be discovered easily.

As soon as she hid herself, a few people came in from outside.

It seemed that she was not the only person capable of detecting the anomaly here.

Each of the visitors wore a straw rain cape and a wide bamboo hat.

She could neither see their faces clearly nor tell their sexes.

She just saw the four of them tacitly moved to a certain corner of the hall almost at the same time.

Lin Mengya squatted down there, noticing the four of them seemed to be located at the four corners of a square.

But the next second, she was stunned by their move.

The four of them revealed their snow-white wrists almost at the same time.

Although the other parts of them were still covered by their straw rain capes and bamboo hats so that she could not recognize them, those slender and white hands definitely belonged to women.

Then each of the four of them drew a one-foot-long steel knife out of the straw rain cape.

With a "swoop", the four of them cut off their left hands, which were not holding knives, at the same time.

Lin Mengya covered her mouth tightly with her hand, thinking it absurd!

Ordinary people would have long failed to endure the sharp pain caused by having their wrists cut off.

But the four people seemed to feel no pain at all and let the blood drip from their broken wrists to the ground quickly.

Just as she was wondering whether she should go out or not, a fine and closely woven net suddenly appeared on the ground and began to spread, and the blood mixed with rainwater left extremely light lines on the ground like a painting brush.

For fear that those weird lines would spread to her feet, Lin Mengya stepped back immediately.

Fortunately, although the lines were entangled with one and another, they stopped when they were more than a meter away from her.

Lin Mengya gasped in fear, because she looked up at the four people again, only to see them, who were in straw rain capes and had almost lost all their blood, line up again and get out of the palace.

"Boom!" The sound of thunder brought Lin Mengya back from her stupor.

If it were not for the strong smell of blood in the hall, she would certainly have thought what had happened was just an illusion.

After waiting cautiously for a while, Lin Mengya estimated that those people had left, and then stood up from her hiding place.

The weird and irregular blood red lines on the ground were gradually fading, no, they were actually sinking at a high speed.

With no time to take a closer look, Lin Mengya just quickly recorded them with the Shen Nung System.

About half an hour after those people left, the lines gradually disappeared.

Lin Mengya sniffed hard and discovered there was no smell of blood in the air other than the moist and moldy smell caused by rainwater.

This was the first time she had seen such a weirdly shocking thing.

She involuntarily associated it with the Candle Dragon Cult.

Apart from this secret organization, she could not think of anyone else likely to stir up trouble in such an extremely perverted way.

She stamped her foot hard, only to find the ground turned out to be solid.

Then she squatted down to check the cracks carefully and touched them with her hand, only to find they were too shallow to be noticed.

But just now…

All this was like a mystery that totally puzzled Lin Mengya.

The heavy rain outside gradually became light. Lin Mengya knew it was time to end her adventure.

Glancing at the four broken hands, she noticed they were all slender and white, and only one of them had an exquisite ring on it.

After squatting down to take a look, Lin Mengya left in a hurry.

If the Candle Dragon Cult was behind this, they would definitely send someone to deal with these broken hands.

Her taking away anything at random would only arouse suspicion.

She took her oil paper umbrella and left in a hurry. The rumbling of thunder offered her the best cover.

What she had seen today sent her a chill more than the slightly cool rain did.

It seemed that she had to change her plan slightly.

The isolated palace stood upright behind her like a giant vicious beast.

Lin Mengya looked back at it with a complicated expression, and finally chose to forget this ghastly and horrible place for the time being.

Nevertheless, one day, she would make all the evil things that had happened there public.

She would definitely wipe out the perverted organization that had almost ruined her life!

As the rain gradually became light, the thunder came to a stop.

Seeing more and more people show up around her, Lin Mengya slowed down with a gentle look.

No one could tell what she had just experienced.

From time to time, some palace servants with oil paper umbrellas came to greet her.

Lin Mengya greeted them back one by one and then lifted the hem of her dress and returned to the Fengyu Court.

As soon as she got in, she saw Baisu who looked worried.

Baisu was presumably anxious so that she ran over and grabbed Lin Mengya's wrist as soon as she saw Lin Mengya come in.

She said, "Miss, where have you been? It was thundering and raining outside. What if you catch a cold?"

At the sight of Baisu's anxious look, Lin Mengya felt a little sorry.

She had always worried those people around her, but she could not be so brave without their support.

"I'm fine. The room was stuffy on a rainy day, so I went out for a walk. I wish you could also enjoy the special fun of admiring the flowers in the rain. Although the violent storm destroyed countless flowers, some delicate flowers still withstood the storm. So I came back late," she said.

Her words were not only meant for Baisu, but also for those people around her.

After all, lots of people had witnessed her going out in the rain.

If her going out was associated with that incident, it would alert the enemy.

Fortunately, she went out at the right time. When she came out of the abandoned palace, the violent storm had wiped out all the traces she left.

Moreover, the dilapidated palace was in a mess, which made it even more impossible for her footprints to be discovered.

After pondering for a while, she should only give a reasonable explanation for her behavior.

Fortunately, everyone in the Fengyu Court knew that she adored roses, so she went to the yard where Xiaoyu had prepared roses for her before she came back.

Her shoes and the hem of her dress were stained with mud, and she specially picked a few surviving rose branches and brought them back.

In this way, ordinary people would not be able to find any evidence against her.

After all, she was particularly cautious on the way and was sure that no one had seen what had happened before she came out of the rose courtyard.

Therefore, even if observant people intended to investigate into this, she could smooth things over easily.

Nevertheless, she probably couldn't go to the abandoned palace again without total certainty.

"Why can't you change this habit? Don't forget that last time you fell sick after admiring the flowers in the rain. Come on, bring me ginger soup and hot water," Baisu said.

Baisu's unexpectedly quick reaction even surprised Lin Mengya.

After exchanging glances tacitly with Baisu, Lin Mengya replied with "fine". Then the two of them walked to the side chamber, where Lin Mengya usually lived, one behind the other.

The two of them did not exchange information at once. Instead, they watched as the palace maids brought some ginger tea and hot water before they closed the door.

Lin Mengya drank the ginger soup and took off her nearly drenched clothes. After she soaked her whole body into the warm water, she couldn't help saying with a satisfied sigh, "Oh, I feel so good. It warms up my body."

The cold and moist feeling was quickly driven away by the hot water.

Lin Mengya leaned against the bathtub, closed her eyes, and quietly enjoyed this rare moment.

Baisu made a cup of hot tea for Lin Mengya in person. Although Lin Mengya was proficient in the art of poison, she and Baiji had still cultivated the good habit of serving Lin Mengya personally.

She even made the ginger soup personally and then instructed a trustworthy palace maid to watch it over closely.

This was an attitude that all maids in Liuxin Courtyard had naturally formed rather than a habit.

No one was allowed to hurt Lin Mengya, even if she did not need such protection!

"Did you deliver the stuff I prepared for Xiaoyu?" Lin Mengya asked.

In the steam, she opened her eyes slightly, looking as wise and farsighted as before.
