"Master, what should we do! The mansion is in chaos, and the eldest young master has also been taken to the prison of the governor of Kyoto!"
Bai Zhi came from the Lin family, so naturally, she was as worried about the Lin family as Lin Mengya.
Seeing the little girl's furious look, Lin Mengya forced herself to calm down.
If my brother's personal guards can still come to report the news, it means that my brother is actually under complete control.
Even if he is taken to the government prison, there is still a way to get the news out.
Or maybe my brother had already made arrangements before. He was just afraid that she would worry, so he would never let anyone tell him until the last moment.
But since her brother came to ask her for help, she had to calm down. Otherwise, neither her brother nor she would suffer the consequences in the end.
"Bai Zhi, you go first and do the things I just told you. Something has happened at my brother's place, and we can't make any mistakes while we are busy."
After sending Bai Zhi out first, Lin Mengya forced herself to sit on the chair, with various thoughts swirling in her mind.
"Now, what do you want to do? Go to the palace to face the saint, or go find Long Tianyu?"
What Qing Hu said was indeed what Lin Mengya was thinking.
But Lin Mengya knew even more clearly that this time, without the emperor's permission, who would dare to capture his brother, a military attache?
Unless the elder brother is really caught, not even the emperor can excuse him.
Moreover, he ordered his father to go to Beijing. I am afraid that Long Yan would be furious, which was already expected.
"Master, there is a father-in-law outside. He said that he came to the mansion to read the imperial edict in accordance with the emperor's order."
Hong Yu looked a little strange, and Lin Mengya was the same, confused.
At this time, Long Tianyu should be in the imperial study room, discussing matters with the emperor. What is the imperial edict that must be read out now?
Moreover, father-in-law——
Lin Mengya suddenly remembered a thin figure. Could it be that father-in-law?
"Please, I'll go see him right away."
Lin Mengya straightened her clothes and found that her father-in-law was an old acquaintance of her father.
Back when she was treating the emperor in the palace, she received a lot of care from him.
If it were her father-in-law, Lin Mengya felt that she could feel a little more at ease.
He took several maids with him and walked out of the courtyard to the reception hall.
Sure enough, the person sitting on the chair is not the one who is stronger than the father-in-law.
However, at this time, Father-in-law Yu felt a little worried, and the two of them Dao Jian's eyebrows also furrowed tightly.
Lin Mengya secretly felt that something was wrong. But now, she could only let nature take its course.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, but the senior is still in high spirits. The junior is very impressed."
Hearing Lin Mengya's voice from outside the door, Yu Qiang immediately stood up from his chair. After bowing to her respectfully, he spoke.
"Your Highness the Princess, thank you very much. The matter is urgent. Please invite Your Royal Highness to welcome the imperial edict."
So anxious? Lin Mengya frowned, but still took the maids and knelt in front of Yu Qiang.
Looking at the daughter of an old friend, Yu Qiang could only shake his head gently, and then unfolded the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand.
"The third prince's concubine, Mrs. Lin, although she comes from a famous family, has shortcomings in moral conduct. I think of her past actions and the merits and demerits are equal, so I immediately deprived her of her position as a principal concubine and demoted her to a side concubine. I also ordered her to shut up and meditate on the past.
, If you are not summoned, you will not be allowed to enter the palace. I appreciate this."
The imperial edict brought by Yu Qiang suddenly made Lin Mengya feel angry.
No wonder, my brother didn’t send someone to inform him until he was caught. No wonder, Long Tianyu was hurriedly invited into the palace early in the morning. No wonder, the emperor insisted on taking his father regardless of the border crisis.
Urgently recalled from the frontier.
It turns out that the Lin family has become a battlefield for the husband and wife at this moment.
His heart felt cold. Even if the emperor didn't want to save his life, he should at least leave a way for the Lin family to survive for the sake of his father's loyalty for many years.
But he didn't expect that being with the emperor is like being with a tiger. Neither she nor his father are just chips in the emperor's hands that can be used to obtain benefits.
"Your Highness, I know this is really hard to accept. However, the situation is critical now. Please, Your Highness, be considerate of the Emperor's painstaking efforts."
Yu Qiang couldn't bear to look at the woman in front of him with a heartbroken expression.
However, over the years, life in the palace has allowed him to see through everything.
The emperor's kindness is like flowing water, especially in recent years, he can no longer guess the emperor's thoughts with his comrades who have fought side by side.
Take this time, for example, regarding Lin Nansheng's matter, the emperor not only did not listen to the child's opinion, but also summoned Mu's brother with a written edict.
Now, she was afraid that her son would be implicated, so she deprived Lin Mengya of her position as princess.
Isn't this pushing the Lin family into a pit of fire?
But he couldn't resist. This news, if Lin
If Mengya had to know, then he would rather be the one to read out the imperial edict.
"Of course, thank you Your Majesty for your kindness. I have to thank you, senior. I, Lin Mengya, have accepted this imperial edict. Come and get the imperial edict that your majesty bestowed on your marriage, as well as the princess's crown and robe."
Lin Mengya stretched out her hands and took the imperial edict from Yu Qiang's hand.
But he couldn't help but reveal a sneer on his face.
In fact, when she was in Lintian Kingdom, cousin Chen told her to be careful about Emperor Jin Yuan.
Unexpectedly, now, it turned out to be a prophecy. She actually didn't feel that surprised.
"This - forget about the imperial uniform. Your Highness, Princess, you also know that the situation in the DPRK is unstable now. The matter of your mother's brother has caused turmoil in the DPRK. In fact, the emperor's doing this is also -"
"Of course I know that His Majesty has no choice but to do this. Senior, don't worry, although I am young and ignorant, I still understand these principles. Therefore, I will not embarrass Senior. However, there are still some chores in my house, so I won't
I’ve saved a lot of seniors. I also ask seniors to tell His Majesty for me. Let’s talk about Lin Mengya. I’ll take the order to express my gratitude.”
You really can't blame Lin Mengya for being angry. Yu Qiang also felt that the emperor did something unethical. After sighing, he finally stood up, said goodbye and left.
Lin Mengya held the imperial edict in her hand, but her expression was uncertain.
The other maids were all very angry.
"This emperor is so good at burning bridges! Back then, when my young lady refused to marry, they forced my young lady to marry. Now, something happened. The emperor was the first one to come and take action on my young lady!"
Bai Zhi was really angry. She knew best how the Lin family was forced into marriage and how the young lady was stuffed into a sedan chair.
Now, the eldest young master has just been wronged, and the young lady, who had finally secured her position as princess, has been deprived of her position by the emperor. Naturally, she feels aggrieved on behalf of her master.
"Master, are you okay?"
The ruby eyes never left Lin Mengya, even though the master didn't have any big emotions on the surface.
However, the jade hands holding the imperial edict turned white with force. Obviously, the master's heart must have been going through thousands of times, which is indescribable.
"It's okay, I'm fine!"
good very good!
In Lin Mengya's heart, she almost applauded the emperor for his cruelty.
Doesn't he just want to use the Lin family to take back military power into his own hands again?
It's just that the Queen is also staring at this piece of fat. She doesn't know who will end up with this hot potato in the end. Just in my hands.
Since the emperor is unkind, don't blame her for being unjust!
Even if she wanted to sacrifice the Lin family, she, the Lin family, would still have to lose a few of the couple's teeth.
"Come here, vacate Prince Yu's Mansion for me! Move all my things back to the Lin Family! Everyone, follow me back to the Lin Mansion. If anyone asks, just say that I am on His Majesty's orders.
, go home and be disciplined!"
No one expected that Lin Mengya would respond like this.
She looked at her master blankly, as if what she just said was a joke.
"What are you looking at? Move it to me! Also, keep whatever the emperor has given to Prince Yu and his concubine, so that Prince Yu can give me a good look at things and think about people!"
Lin Mengya was really angry, but there was one thing she knew better than anyone else.
Long Tianyu definitely didn't know about it, and he was probably kept in the palace by the emperor for various reasons.
Otherwise, the emperor would not be so impatient and let Yu Qiang, who is close to him, read out the imperial edict.
Rather than wanting to behead first and report later, she and Long Tianyu had no choice but to obey the imperial edict.
So, if that's the case, don't blame her and retaliate by sweeping the fire under the cauldron!
She had saved the emperor's remaining life with her own hands. If the emperor forgot, she would remind him carefully so as not to make the emperor's life too easy.
Lin Mengya had never lost such a temper. In the past, she was too concerned about the overall situation, so the emperor had the illusion that he could manipulate her at will.
Yes, the Lin family is indeed loyal. My father and brother are indeed willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of this country and will never regret it.
However, this does not mean that the Lin family can be flattened and rounded by others!
Clutching the imperial edict in her hand, Lin Mengya's heart slowly revealed a cold smile.
She wanted to let the emperor know that there were some imperial edicts and it was best not to issue them randomly. Otherwise, she would disturb the whole Jin Dynasty and make it impossible for them to live in peace!
"Qinghu, you personally send someone to inform my father. After he returns to the capital, he should immediately resign from the Ministry of War. Also, send a letter to Zuo Qiuchen, saying that I officially accept the princess of Lintian Kingdom - no
, the title of princess! Be quick, remember, you can only use your confidants, not people from Sanjuetang."
Qinghu looked at Lin Mengya, who was becoming more and more calm, with a smile on his face.
"Yes, the old emperor thought you were a docile little sheep. It's a pity, it's a pity, but he didn't know that what he provoked was a lion with hidden claws."
