Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess
Chapter 839 - A Deliberate Act as a Warning
"Yes, they are pretty good and beautiful. However, all of them are hard nuts to crack. If Yu'er marries any of them, it will bring trouble. I'm not going to put him in a difficult situation into which his father had once fallen. I just hope Yu'er could marry a tremendously beautiful and virtuous girl. Apart from this, I don't have any other requirements for the girl Yu'er is going to marry," Madame Jingrou said.
Lin Mengya knew that her words meant more than what she said.
Could it be that she had chosen a girl she was pleased with as Xiaoyu's wife but was afraid that Xiaoyu would not consent to marry the girl?
After thinking for a while, Lin Mengya said, "Madame, you are right, but I'm wondering which lady could win your special favor."
Of course, Lin Mengya preferred Xiu to be Xiaoyu's wife. If it were not for the fact that Xiaoyu was her brother, she would have tried to bring them together in every possible way.
When it came to this, Lin Mengya was always on the side of her family members rather than the side of justice.
Moreover, Xiu and Xiaoyu were really a perfect match.
One of them was as bright as the sun, while the other was as gentle as the moon.
They just needed a miraculous chance to fall for each other.
Moreover, Lin Mengya believed that they would definitely have a tender feeling for each other over time, just like Long Tianyu and her who had been hostile to each other but eventually became a loving couple.
It required a chance to develop a relationship.
"Do you really have no idea?" Madame Jingrou stared at the girl in front of her and asked with doubt.
Could it be that her silly son hadn't mentioned anything about this to Helan yet?
Seeing Helan shake her head, Madame Jingrou thought it a pity.
As Xiaoyu's mother, she was not supposed to mention this.
If she did, she would seem to be constraining Helan to consent to marry Xiaoyu.
Alas, it seemed that her son dealt with a relationship in the same way as that of his father.
"Nothing. I'm just saying that. Furthermore, His Majesty and I are not anxious about his marriage. We should carefully choose a girl as his wife. As you can see, there have been a multitude of sordid things happening in the imperial palace. I don't want my son to fall into the same situation," Madame Jingrou said.
Lin Mengya agreed with this very much.
In fact, she found many of Madame Jingrou's views were beyond the cognitive range of ancient people.
Madame Jingrou lived up to her reputation as the chosen witch who had been trained since her childhood. Both her views and other ideas were so advanced that Lin Mengya thought the same as she did.
Moreover, now Xiaoyu was still too young to get married.
Lin Mengya had a brainwave, wondering if it would be better to mention Xiu to Madame Jingrou.
With the great help of Madame Jingrou, she believed Xiu would be able to win Xiaoyu's heart sooner or later.
She said, "Madame, you are right. Nevertheless, I once met a noble lady, who lived in the capital city, outside the imperial palace. She is lively, adorable, simple .and kind. I think she and Xiaoyu will make a perfect match!"
Hearing Lin Mengya's words, Madame Jingrou suddenly became interested.
Women were born with an enthusiastic interest in this kind of thing.
But before Madame Jingrou asked about the lady, she recalled the quarrel between Xiaoyu and his father that day and involuntarily lost her spirits.
At present, Xiaoyu was infatuated with Helan in front of her.
If she brought Xiaoyu and another girl together, Xiaoyu, who was stubborn, probably would be even more unwilling to marry the girl.
As such, she said, "Forget it. Yu'er is still young, so we are not anxious about his marriage. If he falls in love with someone after growing up, I'll bring them together."
Lin Mengya was about to mention Xiu's name, but Madame Jingrou broke the thread of her discourse.
Despite her puzzlement, Lin Mengya understood why Madame had this reaction.
Just like her intelligent mother, every mother wanted her children to live happily.
Her mother had sacrificed everything and made arrangements with painstaking effort for her brother and her so that they could grow up safely.
If it weren't for her mother's painstaking efforts to protect her brother and her, they probably would have been killed by those people with ulterior motives as soon as they were born.
This was the reason why she admired Madame Jingrou so much.
In some ways, Madame Jingrou was very similar to her mother.
She and Madame Jingrou had a chat about their daily lives until the Emperor's personal eunuch came out to summon Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya had no idea what the Emperor and the officials were talking over.
But her appearance attracted the attention of quite a few officials.
Very few of them knew she was Miss Helan.
"Greetings, Your Majesty," Lin Mengya said, kneeling on the ground and bowing respectfully.
She lowered her head, trying hard to avoid attracting attention.
Obviously sensing that the Emperor was looking down at her, Lin Mengya remained humble without changing her expression.
"Have you found out the truth of the deaths of the four palace maids?" the Emperor asked directly, pointing out her purpose of coming here today.
She lowered her head even more, because she sensed that almost everyone fixed their eyes on her.
In fact, it was unpleasant to be in the spotlight.
She said, "Your Majesty, I have found out the truth through a thorough investigation. The four of them were murdered, but I haven't found the murderer yet."
In fact, her answer almost gave no useful information.
The officials, who were staring at her, were obviously displeased, seeming to feel deceived by her.
However, the Emperor was aware of the implied meaning of her words.
He asked, "Well, who do you think is the murder?"
Lin Mengya had no idea why the Emperor asked her about this here.
However, she believed he did this for a reason.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Mengya said slowly, "Your Majesty, I haven't found out the murderer. But I'm sure the murderer must have something to do with the royal family."
As soon as she said that, a few officials, who were staring at her around her, became slightly panic-stricken.
The murderer had something to do with the royal family. This was a serious accusation!
"How dare you, a humble palace maid, doubt the noble royals! Your Majesty, don't listen to her irresponsible remarks!" an official said.
Hearing her view refuted, Lin Mengya neither said anything else nor defended herself hurriedly.
In fact, she had prepared for this situation when she decided to say that.
Now hearing the discussion of the officials around her, Lin Mengya finally realized why the Emperor asked her to report here.
He presumably needed to warn some of the officials here.
"Your Excellencies, you don't have to be overcome with emotion. Your Majesty, I think it would be better to let this lady finish her words. Besides, she only said the murderer had something to do with the royal family, but she did not say what the murderer had to do with the royal family. Your Excellencies, you don't have to be so anxious," there came a voice from Xin Luan who came in earlier than her.
Lin Mengya did not expect this, but why did Xin Luan speak up for her?
"Okay, go ahead," the Emperor said indifferently.
Hearing his cold tone, the officials shut up obediently.
Lin Mengya said, "Okay. Thank you, reverend sir. In fact, the four palace maids got killed with their left hands cut off and the blood drained. Finding it strange, I consulted some historical records and ancient works, and I found it only happened to the slaves buried with deceased royals. Besides, very few people know this system after the late Emperor abolished it. So I assume the deaths of the four palace maids must have something to do with the royal family."
In fact, after the late Emperor abolished this system, he not only killed the officials of different ranks who conducted the ceremonies under this system, but also gave an order to burn the documents related to this outrage.
At present, this system could only be found in the rare works collected in the imperial palace.
Moreover, without the Emperor's permission, very few people could read the works.
In this situation, the murderer was either a royal aware of this system or someone with an ulterior motive who intended to challenge the royal family.
But in either case, the murderer had something to do with the royal family.
Lin Mengya just played with words, but the officials became panic-stricken.
It could be seen that her speculation was right. The Emperor probably wanted to warn them.
"So that's how it is. Your Majesty, someone may intend to curse you!" an official said.
The false alarm caused cold sweat to trickle down the foreheads of the officials.
The Emperor, sitting behind the desk, glanced inadvertently at Helan, who was kneeling on the ground, with a flash of appreciation in his cold eyes.
He kept Xin Luan here simply because he wanted Xin Luan to cooperate with him.
Unexpectedly, Helan was so quick-witted.
Looking down, he had a preliminary understanding of why his silly son was so infatuated with her.
However, it didn't mean that he had accepted Helan to be his daughter-in-law.
"You can leave now," he said.
"Okay," Lin Mengya said, as if she had been granted an amnesty.
As soon as she got the Emperor's permit, she left obediently.
Gosh, she believed if she continued staying here, the officials would feel profound hatred for her.
After getting out of the study, she saw Madame Jingrou seemed to be about to go out.
Lin Mengya immediately came up to Madame Jingrou and exchanged glances with Ningqiu tacitly. Then Ningqiu handed over Madame Jingrou's hand to her with a smile and said, "Thank you for accompanying Madame, sister."
Lin Mengya nodded, knowing that things had changed now.
Ningqiu, who opened the door for her back then, had become the chief steward of the imperial palace.
Madame Jingrou didn't care about going out with Helan instead of Ningqiu.
Knowing that Ningqiu had a lot of business to handle in the imperial palace, she thought it a good idea to go out for a walk with Helan.
Madame Jingrou and Helan walked out of the Emperor's resting palace and headed for the garden, followed by a group of palace maids.
Although Madame Jingrou was indifferent to position, she, as the Emperor's favorite concubine, had to be followed by a multitude of palace maids.
After the palace maids in the Fengyu Court returned from the Emperor's resting palace where they went in a hurry to serve Madame Jingrou in the daytime, Lin Mengya had heard them smilingly mention how much the Emperor adored Madame Jingrou.
But Lin Mengya knew it was a sweet burden to Madame Jingrou.
This was also the case for her when she stayed with Long Tianyu.
Therefore, she could empathize with Madame Jingrou who had the same experience.
They arrived at the garden with a large group of palace maids.
At present, no other imperial concubines were as highly favored as Madame Jingrou.
However, some imperial concubines were keenly aware of this, while some were still not.
