Chapter 922 Sneaking into the Study
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Watching Qinghu leave, Lin Mengya felt uneasy inside.
“Child, don’t be afraid. We are here, and they will definitely win.”
Imperial Noble Consort walked up to Lin Mengya and held her hand gently.
She had seen everything that had happened between Lin Mengya and Qinghu.
As a mother-in-law, she would not blame Lin Mengya.
Because she could see that the relationship between the two of them was not mixed with the love between a man and a woman.
The great battle was imminent. No one could guarantee that they could come back alive. That was why she wouldn’t do such a petty thing as to blame Lin Mengya.
“Yeah. Mother, you’re right. We’re here and they’re worrying over us. That is more useful than any weapons.”
Turning around, Lin Mengya smiled slightly. The smile on her beautiful face was unexpectedly comforting.
Her words were not only to comfort the Imperial Noble Consort but also to calm her down.
Waiting always made people particularly anxious.
At first, Baisu could still come back to deliver messages. But later, she came back less and less, and the information she could bring back became more and more limited.
Lin Mengya knew that the Imperial Palace was under martial law and that the Crown Prince’s men were everywhere.
For the sake of Baisu’s safety, she could only let Baisu return to her side for the time being.
The dark night finally passed, and dawn was coming.
Like Imperial Noble Consort, she sat in the chamber for the whole night.
This night was particularly difficult to endure. Except for having some tea and pastries separately, they didn’t talk to each other.
All their attention was focused on the battle outside the palace walls.
They were both nervous and feared.
But they were more worried about those people.
The heavy snow kept falling and it showed no sign of stopping.
Lin Mengya opened the window and was a little stunned.
The plum blossoms by the window had bloomed at some point in time.
The bright red was particularly eye-catching in the snow.
It was tender and red, full of vitality. Even though the cold snow covered the whole world, it still managed to blossom against the cold.
Lin Mengya subconsciously reached out and gently stroked the delicate petals.
Plum blossoms were the mark left by her mother, and they were also her amulets.
Looking at the plum blossom in full bloom, Lin Mengya could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
“Perhaps this is a good sign.”
Behind her, Baisu said softly, “Master, you haven’t slept all night. You should have some fruit and hot tea at least. Don’t get yourself exhausted.”
The Imperial Noble Consort’s calmness was beyond Lin Mengya’s expectation.
Although they both felt worried and uneasy, after talking to her just now, the Imperial Noble Consort lay on the warm bed to rest with her clothes on.
She turned around, gave Baisu a comforting smile, and shook her head slightly.
“I’m fine. I can handle it. Have you arranged everything outside?”
There was a trace of determination in her eyes. Only the two of them understood what it meant.
Baisu paused for a while and then said a word softly, “Yes.”
This time, the forces of the Crown Prince all came out, and even the Shangguan Family was involved.
Since the Empress must have been persuaded, he couldn’t wait any longer.
But Lin Mengya felt that something was not quite right.
The reason for the success of her plan was that they made use of the Crown Prince’s great ambition, impulse, and anger.
However, the Empress was meticulous and had managed the imperial harem for many years. Logically speaking, she should not have been fooled so easily.
Since the Shangguan Family was involved, it meant that the Empress’s faction had put in a lot of effort to support the Crown Prince.
However, Lin Mengya didn’t have enough time. There were some things that she had no time to think about.
“Time is limited, and it’s time to take action.
“Even if the Empress is plotting something, I will definitely make Long Tianyu win in the end.”
“Have them protect the Imperial Noble Consort well. Don’t let anything bad happen to her.”
Baisu took the order and went out. In a flash, she disappeared into the courtyard that was attacked by wind and snow.
Lin Mengya held a cup of hot tea in her hand. The warm and smooth surface of the cup warmed her cold hands.
She elegantly drank the tea and looked at the plum blossoms outside the window, her eyes more and more determined.
She put down the teacup and quietly took out the clothes that she had prepared earlier.
It was a white thin silk cloak without any patterns. It was pure white like snow, and even the fox fur around its collar was the same white.
Lin Mengya took off the red clothes on her body and quickly put on the white cloak.
She wore white clothes and shoes, and her hair was simply combed into a braid, which was tightly hidden under the hood of the cloak.
Lin Mengya took a deep look at the Imperial Noble Consort before she stepped out of the chamber’s door.
There was a thick layer of snow in the yard, but a martial arts master like Baisu only left a shallow shoe print on the snow.
“Master, don’t worry. I’ve instructed them. They won’t let anything happen to the Imperial Noble Consort.”
Lin Mengya nodded. Baisu immediately put her arms around her waist, and the two of them jumped out of the closed door of Ningqing Hall.
The battle between the two sides had reached its climax. Therefore, although there were many guards in the palace, they had too many places to guard and they were scattered.
After leaving the Ningqing Hall, Lin Mengya and Baisu sneaked into the imperial study where His Majesty was. Because of her pure white cloak, she was safe and sound along the way.
Before long, they arrived at a yard very close to the imperial study.
Lin Mengya and Baisu hid in an inconspicuous corner and looked in the direction of the imperial study.
“How many people are guarding His Majesty?”
This was the most important place to be watched. In the yard where the imperial study was located, the Crown Prince’s elite soldiers could be seen everywhere.
“There are a total of five hundred people, and each team has twenty-five people. They guard all over the place and patrol. It’s a bit difficult for us to enter without anyone noticing.”
Baisu could not get out of the palace, but she was still aware of the situation in the palace.
Lin Mengya frowned slightly. Looking at those elite soldiers, she kept thinking in her heart.
“Find a way to get in and then find the eunuch beside His Majesty. He should have a way to let me in.”
Eunuch Wang was an old man who served His Majesty. Everyone in the palace could be looked down upon, except for Eunuch Wang.
Baisu nodded and quickly disappeared.
Even Lin Mengya could not tell what kind of method the lass had used to get in.
“Does the Crown Prince think that he sit back and relax after he sent these elite soldiers over? “They’re about to meet a real master, and she will do something big under their noses.”
Baisu was fast, and she brought the news of Eunuch Wang in a short while.
“Eunuch Wang said that although His Majesty is temporarily trapped in the imperial study, the Crown Prince’s men can’t go in. There will be people delivering imperial meals in a while. When the time comes, we will follow the palace maids to sneak in.”
This method was a little risky, but now it seemed to be the only feasible method.
Lin Mengya and Baisu continued to wait. After a while, they saw seven or eight palace maids carrying food boxes outside the courtyard.
The snow-covered road was slippery, so they walked very slowly. They had to be careful of the ground so as not to slip.
Lin Mengya and Baisu looked at each other. Those palace maids would definitely pass by where they were staying later.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Baisu made her move decisively.
With lightning speed, she pressed the acupuncture points of the two palace maids at the back and brought them back to their hiding place.
“Master, what should we do since we don’t know how to disguise ourselves?”
The two palace maids closed their eyes and did not know what had happened.
But they looked delicate and pretty, and the people who could enter the imperial study to deliver food at this time must be familiar to the guards and elite soldiers.
That was why Baisu said in her heart that this was not good. If someone found out, she could escape with her master.
But at the same time, they would alert the enemy and the loss would outweigh the gain.
“It doesn’t matter. Let’s change into their clothes first. I’ll lock them up in an empty room and then put this on them. It’s so cold. We can’t have them frozen with cold.”
There was also a time limit for fainting acupoint attacks. Generally speaking, the maids could wake up in about four hours.
But the snow outside was so heavy. If they didn’t take some measures to keep warm, the two of them would either die or become disabled.
Therefore, Lin Mengya decided to leave the cloak to them. It was big enough and thick enough like a quilt. It could protect one from the cold.
As a matter of fact, it was all thanks to her teacher that she knew that it would snow heavily.
In the past, he used to live in the stone room all year round and would not take care of himself. It was inevitable that he would suffer from rheumatism.
According to those who came from Sanjue Hall, the teacher told her that it would snow heavily in three days.
Sure enough, three days after that, it snowed, and it snowed for three days continuously.
It was also because of this that Long Tianyu’s men were already prepared to fight on snowy days.
He had all favorable timing, geographical and human conditions alone.
How could he not win?
After quickly changing their clothes, Lin Mengya and Baisu threw themselves into the snow and rolled on the ground.
The palace maids were all wearing cotton-padded coats.
Although the coats could keep the maids warm, they made them look plump and awkward.
Therefore, the maids’ figures were similar. All of them were like steamed buns, and there was no trace of a woman’s gracefulness.
The two of them deliberately rolled and made their clothes slightly wet, and their hair was scattered. They smeared their faces with snow water. Others would only think that they were unlucky and fell into the snow.
It only took them a few minutes to finish all this.
When they caught up with the food boxes in big steps, the palace maid in front of the team noticed it, but when she looked back, she saw two people coming out of the corner in a very embarrassed manner.
She glanced at them. Other than warning them to be careful, she didn’t make a scene about it.
Because no one came to sweep the snow in the palace.
It was normal for them to fall, but they couldn’t delay sending food to His Majesty.
When the team finally arrived at the imperial study, they were stopped by some elite soldiers.
The leading palace maid, who was experienced, quickly reported their purpose.
“We’re sent from the imperial kitchen. We’re here to deliver lunch to His Majesty. It’s snowing and the road is slippery, so it took us longer than expected to make it here.”
The palace maid sounded a little nervous. Obviously, they had limited time to deliver the meal.
