Turning around, she followed Gu Pan and sat down. She and Long Tianyu returned to normal, and no one could see the little ambiguity between them.
Princess Xiao's banquet was not big. Compared with the overwhelming ostentation of those noble ladies in Longdu, it felt more like a small and exquisite private party.
Lin Mengya is a perverted type with strong adaptability. Even though there are many enemies and enemies of hers sitting across from her, she still smiles like a spring breeze and can't see any other emotions.
After all, this is Princess Xiao's occasion. If you screw up, it will actually be disrespectful to Princess Xiao.
It's a pity that some people don't want to let her live such a comfortable life. ??
Princess Chonghua was still sitting next to the prince and Murong Xi, but Lin Mengya felt that the girl's gaze seemed to be more penetrating than before.
If Chonghua knew how to be patient in the past, then Chonghua now has revealed his true face like a hungry wolf.
Lin Mengya glanced at her from afar, and was secretly surprised by the viciousness in her eyes.
What happened to make Chonghua hate himself so much?
Although she didn't care, she still felt a little strange.
When Chonghua looked at her like this, wasn't she afraid that someone would notice her and lose the virtuous person she had managed to pretend to be?
But what happened between them did not attract anyone else's attention.
Princess Xiao was also a leader in social events back then. Moreover, most of these guests were her juniors, so it was natural for the host and guest to enjoy themselves.
And Gu Pan, the legendary Princess Xianghua, is actually the theme of this banquet.
After drinking for three rounds, Princess Xiao waved to Gu Pan.
"Just wait for me, I'll be back as soon as I go."
Although he was unwilling, Gu Pan had to leave Lin Mengya behind temporarily and walked to Princess Xiao's side.
Lin Mengya couldn't help but sigh when she looked at the girl who seemed a bit innocent and willful in front of her, but in the blink of an eye, she turned into a noble lady with bright eyes and a charming smile.
Only in front of the people closest to you will you show your roughest side.
She sat alone in the corner. This was specially arranged by Gu Pan and Lin Mengya didn't want to make herself too conspicuous.
Guangguang went to see the situation over there at Gu Pan, but when she tried to find the trace of Long Tianyu again, she found that his position was empty.
At the same time, Chonghua's position is also empty.
Is it possible that these two people came out together?
After waving, Bai Su immediately half-bent down and Lin Mengya asked softly.
"Have you ever seen Princess Chonghua and when she left?"
"More than half a moment ago, Yue left with His Highness Xi, one after the other. The master wanted to" Bai Su is naturally the one who knows the most about her matters.
In fact, several times when Long Tianyu was in her room, it was Bai Su who stopped the servant, so that the matter between the two of them was not exposed.
She knows her own man.
There will definitely not be any personal relationship between him and Chonghua.
but
She suddenly remembered Chonghua's pair of hateful eyes before.
Still feeling uneasy, he stood up, nodded to Gu Pan, and went out.
It's gentle and warm inside, just like spring.
But it was extremely cold outside, and Lin Mengya couldn't adapt to it for a while. Even though she was wrapped tightly, she couldn't help but shiver when the cold wind penetrated her neck.
There were servants coming and going all the time outside, bringing delicious food to the banquet.
Lin Mengya and Bai Su avoided these people and went to a quieter courtyard.
This place was arranged by Princess Xiao to temporarily sober up the drunken female guests.
If Chonghua was drunk, he would definitely be brought here.
As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw that the door here was ajar.
But inside, there is no lamp.
Lin Mengya and Bai Su subconsciously slowed down their steps and walked into the courtyard.
Before she even reached the door, she heard a rustling sound coming from inside the house.
"Will this really work?"
Although the voice was deliberately lowered, Lin Mengya could still recognize that the voice belonged to Qi Ranxin.
"Don't worry, I have already asked someone to investigate. Princess Chonghua is His Highness Xi's sweetheart. If you want to marry His Highness Xi, this is definitely the right thing to do."
This sentence was said by Yu Mingzhu.
Lin Mengya motioned to Bai Su to go to her side, and the two of them sneaked under the window of the house.
It's not that there's no light inside, it's just that the candlelight can only illuminate a small area.
The window was closed tightly and could not be broken. She could only squat under the window and guess what the people inside were doing.
"You don't know, from the first time I saw His Highness Xi, I had to marry him. Mingzhu, as long as you can let me marry His Highness Xi, I will spare no effort to make you the crown prince.
Concubine!"
Under the window, the real sweetheart of His Highness Xi felt a little speechless.
Should I call them naive? Or simply call them stupid.
What kind of person is Murong Xi? Are they really not aware of it at all?
"Stop talking so much. I'm good to you, and it's not just for this matter. Okay, let's get it done quickly, lest other people come later and hinder us."
Although Lin Mengya didn't know what they wanted to do, she could roughly guess that Qi Ranxin wanted to do something in the name of Princess Chonghua and then lock up her men.
Unfortunately, they found the wrong person. .??.??
There was silence inside again, and then there was a suspicious sound, like they were washing something with water.
Lin Mengya was really curious, so she quietly hid at the door and looked inside along the crack in the door.
Although her position made it easy for others to spot her, what she didn't expect was that the two girls inside seemed to be disguising themselves!
Under the candlelight, Yu Mingzhu fished out a piece of transparent film-like thing from a small basin, and then put it on Qi Ranxin's face bit by bit.
When Yu Mingzhu raised his eyes and looked towards the window unintentionally, Lin Mengya couldn't help but screamed inwardly. Just as she was about to run away, someone picked her up from behind.
The person instantly passed the wall and reached the other side of the yard.
Lin Mengya took off the hand covering her mouth and gasped for air.
"How will you be here?"
Turning her head, she looked at Murong Xi.
The latter was looking at her with a complicated look, which made Lin Mengya feel a little uncomfortable.
After looking at herself and touching her face, Lin Mengya felt that there was nothing wrong.
Why did the other person's gaze make her feel hairy all over?
"Did I get into trouble again?"
I think should not be?
But Murong Xi sighed and said somewhat helplessly.
"Should I say, why are you everywhere?"
Why did she feel a little guilty when she heard this?
"Isn't this a normal thing? Some people are born with a physique that attracts important things. Tell me, what weird thing happened to me this time?"
After Murong Xi took a deep look at her, he pulled her away.
Bai Su also stayed at a distance and behaved very politely and did not come forward.
"Your personal maid, her martial arts skills are quite good."
When mentioning this, Lin Mengya immediately said proudly.
"That's right, my Bai Su is a top martial arts master. Don't change the subject. What happened?"
Although Murong Xi doesn't agree with the word "Yidingyi", as a maid, it is more than enough to protect her master.
At the moment, he didn't care about Gong Ya's boastful behavior.
"Do you know how many people died on the day Dongzhi?"
Lin Mengya thought for a while and shook her head.
There were heavy casualties that night. Although there were very few civilians, the other two explosions occurred in densely populated residential areas.
Perhaps we should thank the snow sculpture that night, which caused many people to walk out of their houses.
Otherwise, I'm afraid the losses will be even more severe.
"Have you done a good job in the aftermath? If necessary, the Gong family can provide financial help to the families of the dead and injured."
After all, the snow sculpture was her idea.
She has an unshirkable responsibility for these casualties.
Although she silently did a lot with Gong Wu afterwards, in the end, she still couldn't think things through.
But Murong Xi shook his head and said.
"I know you have helped the Lian family a lot, but what I want to tell you is not these people, but another group of people. People who were supposed to die are now alive again. Can you believe it?
?”
Resurrection from the dead? Lin Mengya felt that this question was a bit embarrassing for herself.
However, her situation was a special case, so she didn't think it would be the same for others.
"Who came back from the dead?"
"Originally, my people received news that a group of people from aristocratic families were massacred by thugs disguised as guards. Later, the guards disposed of these corpses. Unexpectedly, several people survived. They
Now, they are still in their respective families. But at that time, the Guards were really sure that they had died. Now, even we don't know what happened. The only thing we know is that these
After everyone returned home, they all chose to refuse guests behind closed doors. Even the family they belonged to began to live in seclusion. The emperor and the queen were very worried and hoped that I could find out about this matter."
This thing is really strange.
Lin Mengya thought for a while, but felt that it was difficult to come up with any good countermeasures for a while.
"Are you sure that they were really dead before, and this living one is not an impostor? For example, disguised or something."
Murong Xi shook his head. After the first night when they learned about this, his people secretly sneaked into a person's mansion and checked it secretly.
There is no doubt that it is him, and there is no trace of disguise on his face.
