Chapter 2284: Eradicating the roots with a ruthless hand
Early the next morning, Lin Mengya sent Long Tianyu out.
Because of what she said to those female relatives yesterday, I am afraid that the aristocratic family and those internal and external forces must be ready to take action now.
But Lin Mengya was not idle either.
Although Long Tianyu would handle this matter, her troubles also came one after another.
"Master, those people around your empress are clamoring to hold a funeral for your empress now."
Bai Su frowned slightly.
To be honest, among the enemies that their master and servant had seen, those people were just clowns.
At most, it's just a little irritating.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and said, "Then go ahead."
Afterwards, the three masters and servants arrived at the cave where the coffin of the Queen Mother was stored.
There was a lot of noise and crying inside.
Seeing their group coming, the old woman rushed over immediately, but was stopped by the saint halfway.
"Murderer! You must kneel before the mother's spirit to atone for your sins!"
Lin Mengya had seen shameless people, but not many were so shameless.
With a wave of his hand, the saints moved aside automatically.
She walked up to the old nanny calmly and sneered, "Wouldn't you be afraid if I knelt before your empress's spirit and begged her to appear and punish the murderer?"
The old grandma was having a good time just now, but when she faced her alone, she felt a little guilty.
For some reason, she always felt that the woman in front of her had seen through her.
He opened his mouth and then reluctantly said, "What do I have to be afraid of?"
Lin Mengya looked around and said, "It was very painful when the empress died, wasn't she?"
Her voice was low but extremely clear, and only the two of them could hear it clearly.
"Yes, the dose of the poison is slightly smaller, and the person will not die immediately. So, she should be in front of you, wailing in pain. Then, blood flowed out from the seven orifices. What were you doing at that time? Were you laughing or...
Standing on the sidelines with cold eyes? Did the empress, your empress, ask you for help?"
Word by word, the old woman became more and more panicked.
As if she was watching from the side, she told everything about that night little by little.
"You, what are you talking about? I can't understand!"
Lin Mengya walked around the old woman and looked towards the cave.
"There are stray fire bombs placed inside, right? The smell of gunpowder is so strong, and there are so many stray fire bombs. As soon as I enter, I will be blown to pieces."
Her suddenly cold eyes gave the old nanny no place to hide her treacherous plot.
"I don't know what a fire bomb is! Why don't you spit on others!"
Lin Mengya snorted coldly and glanced with disdain at this old guy who dared to cheat under her nose.
"No wonder you didn't let anyone move before The reason for the fuss over the empress's coffin for a long time is because she wanted to use it for this purpose."
She grabbed the old nanny's wrist and said sternly, "Do you still have any humanity? You killed your empress, and you still want her body to be wiped out! Today, I will do justice to God!"
The old nanny couldn't match her strength, so she grabbed her and dragged her to the front of the cave.
"You all listen to me, this naughty slave, she poisoned the empress, and also placed a lot of gunpowder inside, just to get rid of me. Even you, she wants to get rid of you too.
Lose!"
Long Tianyu told her in advance about the gunpowder last night.
This should be the last step for those people, to use gunpowder to completely destroy the evidence. By the way, at least the two of them will be buried together.
It is not difficult to see how vicious the person who made this plan is.
The servants were all doubtful, so Lin Mengya asked the saints to go inside and take out the stray fire bullets.
Everyone was stunned when they saw the gunpowder balls, which were as big as a man's head, appearing at the entrance of the cave.
I couldn't help but the white hairs of sweat broke out all over my back.
At the same time, those who were hiding in the crowd and obeying the old grandmother's orders were also unable to stand.
"You are all in the same place. Who has a problem? I think you have suspicions in your hearts. Since they all want to kill you, what are you still doing?" Lin Mengya shouted coldly.
In an instant, those innocent servants threw the old grandmother's confidants to the ground.
Some struggled to run away, but were blocked by the saints.
For a moment, the old grandma, who thought she had hidden herself well, was completely panicked.
"You, you really knew!" she screamed.
Lin Mengya gave Bai Su a look.
The latter immediately picked up the vicious old bitch and threw it in front of the empress's memorial tablet.
It was so cold inside.
Lin Mengya personally offered a stick of incense to the empress, but the old nanny had already collapsed into a ball.
"Tell me, your purpose for doing this."
Seeing that the person refused to tell the truth, Lin Mengya personally pressed this disgusting guy onto the empress's already decomposing body.
"ah--"
A gut-wrenching scream echoed in the cave.
"Let me go! Let me go! Your Majesty, I have no choice but to do it!"
Bai Su took action, and the old guy immediately rolled and crawled to the corner.
Lin Mengya looked at her condescendingly and said lightly, "Your last resort is
Are you trying to let your daughter take the place of the empress, and let your grandson usurp Murong Yan's crown prince position?"
"I didn't!" the old nanny cried, trying to crawl over to beg her, but was kicked over by Cairu.
"I have never thought about it this way. It's just that His Highness Yan cannot succeed. This old slave does this all for the continuation of His Royal Highness's bloodline!"
Evil people always have their own reasons for doing bad things. ??
But their "last resort" is based on the suffering of others.
Lin Mengya looked down upon her and said coldly, "I don't care about these intrigues. I just want to know why you are doing this in my temple?"
"This, how can I, a slave, know this?"
Lin Mengya saw through her thoughts and spoke to him. She raised the corner of her lips and said, "It doesn't matter whether you say it or not. Anyway, you are not the only one who knows about this. Bai Su, Cai Ru, have someone tie her up."
Now, I will be nailed into the coffin together with my empress. You should also have a taste of the pain my empress endured during her lifetime."
These words instantly defeated the last line of defense in the old grandma's heart.
How tragic the death of Hou Zun was back then, how frightened she felt now.
After the two girls tried to catch her, they immediately cried and begged for mercy.
"I said, I said it was my grandson's idea. He said that by doing this, His Highness the Crown Prince would no longer be eligible to inherit the throne of the Emperor! He also said that if you die, the Emperor will definitely go crazy.
This position belongs to him!"
After saying this, the old grandma's eyes suddenly froze.
Bai Su and Cai Ru immediately felt something was wrong and kicked them. However, the old woman who had no ability to fight back just now suddenly gained supernatural power.
"Something's wrong!"
Lin Mengya reacted before them.
Just now, the old woman's vitality was instantly wiped out, and her body changed drastically.
The old woman's eyes were dull and lifeless, but she suddenly seemed to have divine power and rushed towards her.
"Master, be careful!" Bai Su shouted.
But the old grandma turned a corner again and ran out.
The master and servant were left looking at each other.
In the system, Xiao Yao said seriously, "This is a kind of poison similar to 'gu'. It can maintain a certain state for a period of time after death. Before the drug takes effect, we are completely unaware of it. But fortunately, after the change,
After becoming a poison, your body still has natural resistance."
The results of the small medicine surprised her.
But the next moment, she thought of another possibility.
"Get out quickly! There may be trouble in the temple!"
Yesterday, she deliberately let these people go, so that they could pass on the news that should be spread, and then catch them all.
r>
But I didn't expect that the person behind the scenes was really vicious.
One move kills a donkey, leaving almost no one alive.
Just as they hurried to the main hall, Baili Wuchen also hurriedly came over to report: "Madam, something happened down there, please don't go out!"
Lin Mengya jumped in front of him and said, "Is there someone who suddenly goes crazy, has infinite strength, and is not afraid of death?"
Baili Wuchen was stunned, "How do you know?"
Sure enough!
"I just wanted to interrogate the people around you, but I didn't expect that I'm fine. How is your highness?"
Baili Wuchen felt relieved and reported back, "Of course these people can't hurt His Highness, but His Highness was meeting guests when the incident happened. When those people went crazy, no one was prepared. Now most of them are dead and injured."
Those people are all innocent people who don’t know how to do martial arts.”
Lin Mengya frowned.
What exactly do they want to do?
At this moment, another news came from outside.
Emperor Zun, took advantage of the chaos and escaped!
"Your Highness, the Emperor has been rescued, should we pursue him?"
Ling Ye stood respectfully behind Long Tianyu and asked.
There was no trace of panic on Long Tianyu's face.
"Just run away, no need to chase."
But Ling Ye was a little hesitant.
"But if he dies, won't those people have to rely on you again?"
Long Tianyu raised his eyebrows and looked at Ling Ye.
"He escaped in full view of the public. What does it have to do with us?"
Ling Ye realized instantly.
"Yes, my subordinates know."
Ling Ye immediately understood what he wanted to do and turned around to leave.
After a moment, a figure walked out of Long Tianyu's inner room.
"His Highness's plan is really powerful."
If Lin Mengya were here, she would be extremely surprised.
Because she knew this person very well.
Long Tianyu didn't even look at the man, but said in a cold manner, "It's not easy for me to convince Master to cooperate with me in this play. Naturally, I won't let others disturb me."
The truth of the matter is this!
But Lin Mengya had no idea that the "real murderer" she had been searching for was actually Long Tianyu himself.
"That's true, but now that the temple is in your hands. You have also eliminated the traitor. When will you be able to open the door to the underground palace?"
Long Tianyu looked out the window, his expression mixed with somewhat complicated emotions.
