Lin Mengya stood under the shade of the tree, her brows furrowed, her eyes filled with complicated thoughts, her beautiful profile, but with a hint of sadness...
Is she feeling sad for the woman who died in vain?
She, who can smile and inflict the most cruel and inhuman torture on her enemies, is actually moved by a strange woman.
At this moment, Long Tianyu suddenly understood.
Lin Mengya is not too cruel, but she clearly understands love and hate, and her enemy is her enemy, so she will show no mercy at all.
Long Tianyu suddenly felt that he didn't seem to understand his princess at all.
"This—Lin Kui, when you return, you will interrogate all the servants and guards in the palace. If this happens again—"
Lin Kui cupped his fists and saluted. It was his duty to protect the safety of the palace.
But now, something like this happened, and if the prince does not blame him, he is showing mercy beyond the law.
"I don't think it's necessary to make such a big fanfare."
Lin Mengya smiled faintly, and a strange light shone in her eyes.
The other party just wants to fish in troubled waters.
If you do it so solemnly, you will alert the snake.
"I wonder what the princess has to say?" After this lesson, Zhu Qiang was very respectful to Lin Mengya.
If Baili Wuchen saw this, I'm afraid the paper fan that never leaves his body would be frightened.
"The mountain man has his own clever plan, but I still need everyone to cooperate with me."
Lin Mengya smiled mysteriously and narrowed her eyes, which made the future pillars of the country feel shocked.
It seems that the most terrifying thing in the world is to be missed by Princess Yu.
"Okay, in that case, let's all disperse. Lin Kui, let's go back home."
Long Tianyu didn't know why, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
There are many women in the world, some are beautiful, some are extremely smart, but none of them are like the woman in front of me, who is so evil that she has the energy to be frank and slutty.
"Your Majesty, why is this teahouse abandoned?"
Zhu Qiang and others left, but Lin Mengya looked at the lonely and dilapidated second floor and asked thoughtfully.
"Five years ago, there was a fire here, which killed many people. Later, I heard that this place was haunted, so the owner of the tea house sold it at a low price."
Lin Kui replied that if it weren't for the fact that the owner of the teahouse was the prince's former subordinate, they would not have bought the courtyard.
"Haunted? Ha, I want to take a closer look at this."
As a medical student, there are countless legends and eight ghosts in medical school.
It's not like she was frightened. She once spent a whole night doing experiments alone in a laboratory that was said to be haunted.
The lotus steps moved lightly, and the slender figure walked towards the main courtyard of the tea house without fear.
Why is this girl not afraid of anything?
Long Tianyu looked at that figure, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
He had never believed in the theory of ghosts and gods, but people among the people believed in such things. So much so that the imperial court had to ask the Ministry of Rites to build temples for people to visit.
After passing through the inner gate, Lin Mengya saw the same deserted teahouse.
The charred door frame can still vaguely see its former glory. If the big door in the front yard hadn't been locked tightly, cutting off this messy place from the bustling Qianmen Street, this place would have been
The most elegant teahouse in Kyoto.
"Be careful."
A pair of hands suddenly stretched out from behind, and naturally hugged Lin Mengya's slender waist.
Turning his head, he saw Long Tianyu's angular profile. Those handsome features, even if they were descended from the gods, would probably be nothing more than this.
In this life, including her previous life, Lin Mengya felt slightly distracted for the first time because of a man's profile.
"This place has never been repaired since the fire. Be careful not to hurt yourself."
After letting go of Lin Mengya, it turned out that there was a small weathered floor at the entrance of the teahouse.
If Lin Mengya stepped on it, I'm afraid she would have sprained her foot.
"Oh, thank you very much." Lin Mengya lowered her eyes to cover up her apparent shyness.
I just walked around the dilapidated teahouse more cautiously, looking for traces of so-called hauntings.
Although the tea house was destroyed by the fire, the overall building frame is still there. The strange thing is that the stairs are obviously made of wood, but they are still very solid, and even the basic shape has not changed.
"Lin Kui, lend me your knife."
Lin Mengya stretched out her slender hand, touched and knocked on the charred stairs, and suddenly there was some joy in her eyes.
Although he didn't know what the princess meant, Lin Kui obediently offered his sword. Lin Mengya took it and scraped it hard, and there was a metallic sound!
"This is!?"
Long Tianyu and Lin Kui looked at each other and raised their own questions in unison.
I saw Lin Mengya tearing off the hem of her skirt without any politeness, and vigorously wiping the area that had just been scratched.
"Both of you, keep your eyes peeled!"
Following Lin Mengya's movements, that small area actually had a faint metallic luster. As she polished it, it became brighter and brighter, and finally, a golden surface was revealed.
Lin Kui stepped forward and knocked, looking at Long Tianyu in shock.
Oh my god, the stairs in this teahouse are actually made of real gold!
"How could this-"
Lin Mengya smiled and looked at the teahouse. The steel knife in her hand kept tapping on the beams and walls of the teahouse.
Except for some severely charred places, metal sounds could be heard from all places.
"Princess, is it true that this teahouse is made of gold? For such a big gesture, even if it is - even if it is gold in the treasury, it will probably consume five years of taxes!"
Long Tianyu was deep in thought, and inadvertently, his eyes collided with Lin Mengya's. His heart moved slightly. The two of them had an amazing tacit understanding.
"It seems that there are no ghosts or weird things here at all. Those who are pretending to be ghosts just don't want the secret of the tea house to be leaked. As for why, after the prince bought it, the ghosts and monsters disappeared.
Appeared again. That's because they regarded the prince as a free bodyguard."
Lin Mengya also discovered it accidentally.
There were traces of fire everywhere in the yard, and all the huts in the backyard were burned down.
But the teahouse as the main body is still standing. The main structure is not damaged at all.
Ancient smelting technology was very backward, and it was impossible to have such strong steel. What's more, most buildings were made of wood.
How come that fire left only this small building?
The only possibility is that the building is not made of wood at all, but a metal that is very resistant to high temperatures.
As the saying goes, true gold is not afraid of fire. I'm afraid, the only thing left is gold.
Long Tianyu is a prince, and he is a rich and handsome man who is not short of money. He will definitely not spend a lot of effort to renovate a small teahouse.
Therefore, the secret can be hidden.
"Well, what you said makes sense. Lin Kui, go back and ask people to move all the gold back to the house overnight. Do it overnight. Don't leave even a trace of gold behind."
Long Tianyu looked at the small building and frowned. It was a bit baffling that he got such a bargain.
Ordinarily, his old subordinate was just a small sergeant.
A 'leg' was broken on the battlefield, so there was no way he would have so much gold.
Now it seems that I don’t know what kind of background this person has?
"Wait a minute, don't rush. Lin Kui, let me ask you, why would you send the body to the ice cellar in this small courtyard? At that time, I remember that I just told you to find a place where no one is around, right?
"
From the moment she entered this small courtyard, Lin Mengya smelled a hint of conspiracy.
Long Tianyu also stared at Lin Kui, his narrow eyes emitting sharp light, making Lin Kui suddenly sweat.
"Princess Shengming, it is true that my subordinates did not find this place. That night, I wanted to put the body in an ice cellar in the west corner of our palace, but at the door of the ice cellar, I met a steward. I lied
He said that this was a wild boar sent by the hunter on Zhuangzi. The prince could not eat it for a while, so he put it here. But he said that the ice cellar in the mansion was mostly used to store it for the masters to eat in the summer.
If the fresh fruits are contaminated by other things, it will be bad for the masters. It was only after his reminder that my subordinates remembered that there is an ice cellar in this abandoned yard."
After listening to Lin Kui's words, Lin Mengya frowned.
At that time, the spy disguised as a mother-in-law once said that he was following the order of the steward.
She thought that the person in charge was so bold, but now it seems that there is something very wrong with the person in charge.
"Prince?" Lin Mengya looked at Long Tianyu, preparing to ask for his opinion.
Long Tianyu's eyes were gloomy, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking.
"Didn't you just say that you have a clever plan? Whatever you want to do, just do it."
After receiving permission, Lin Mengya whispered in Lin Kui's ear for a moment.
Afterwards, Lin Kui looked at the princess suspiciously, but had no choice but to obey the order and hurriedly ran out of the yard.
In the teahouse, Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu were suddenly the only two people left.
Looking at the house full of gold, Lin Mengya suddenly chuckled.
"What are you laughing at?"
After restraining his thoughts and plans, Long Tianyu had no intention of interfering with Lin Mengya's plan.
Although Lin Mengya was smart, and most of her methods were tricks he had never heard of before, but after all, she was a harem, and her methods of doing things were still different from his own.
Therefore, Long Tianyu also had his own plans, but he was looking forward to Lin Mengya's performance.
This woman always surprises me unexpectedly and brings endless surprises to me. Although I don't want to admit it, every time after seeing her succeed, she smiles tenderly, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows are exposed.
When I feel proud, my mood is a little too happy.
"There is an allusion in other countries called the golden house hiding the beauty. I wonder, my lord, have you heard of it?"
