Chapter 969 Preparations
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Although Lin Mengya was dressed in simple cotton-padded clothes, she straightened her back and walked steadily into the courtyard.
Dozens of people were gathered in the quiet yard.
Just like Lin Mengya, they were dressed simply and plainly without any distinguishing features. But they were all in high spirits with sharp eyes.
“My Lord!”
Although Line Mengya looked like a fragile woman in front of them, they dared not look down on her.
Every woman from the Sanjue Hall was awesome.
And this mysterious Hall Master was a real expert.
“Thank you for your hard work, everyone. Fortune comes from danger. I can’t guarantee to bring each of you back safely, but I am sure that if you can survive, you will have a place whether in the underworld or the court in the future.”
Lin Mengya’s sweet and soft voice was powerful, and everyone’s heart was quietly touched by her words.
Even though they were born into humble families, every one of them was an unyielding and hot-blooded man.
They clenched their fists tightly. They did not know who this woman in front of them was, but her words were like a spark that ignited the flames in their hearts, burning away all of their mediocrity.
“Yes, My Lord.”
Looking at the high-morale crowd, Lin Mengya nodded with satisfaction.
These people were the real forces she could rely on after entering the Lieyun Empire.
Xiaoyu’s father came to the same destination as her. Moreover, after Xiaoyu inherited the royal venomous insect, it was inevitable to open the ruins of the paradise city.
As for the other forces… Lin Mengya stepped into the room, and the people outside were arranged to evacuate naturally.
She still needed to stay here for a while.
“People in Lintian are waiting for our news.”
Qinghu was also dressed in a tight outfit. Compared with those luxurious furs and satin clothes, this extremely cool style was more suitable for him, who used to be the top-notch cold-blooded slayer.
“It’s better to tell them that I want to get an answer to what happened to my mother back then. Besides, we may not know more information than they do. It’s better to have an ally than to have one more enemy. It’s just that we need to be cautious.”
In fact, Lin Mengya had a good impression of her two cousins of the Zuo Family.
She had always valued the family affection. She knew that her maternal grandparents’ plan for her mother was not simple, but she thought that she could not just listen to one side of the story. At least, she could not come to conclusion before confirming it with the Zuo family.
Moreover, in terms of facts, her two cousins did help her a lot.
Therefore, she could not draw a hasty conclusion.
She had no idea what kind of dangers they would encounter on the trip to the Lieyun Empire.
Therefore, she must make use of what she could, in case she would fall miserably in the easy task in the end.
“Did our people get the jade ruler?”
Qinghu nodded. He had sent the most capable men of the best under him to carry out his mission. They had taken the jade ruler back and were heading back.
They would meet up with us at the border in a few days.
“Pass my orders. If we are gone forever, Baishao will be in charge of all the business operations of Sanjue Hall. As for the businesses in the dark, give them to Baili Wuchen.”
Lin Mengya was fully prepared. However, for some things, she had to make the plan early.
“Mengya, I will protect you wherever and whenever.”
Qinghu’s eyes were gentle, but his tone was unquestionable.
When Lin Mengya saw that the signature foxy smile on his face was gone, she stood up and pinched his cheek.
“You must see the sun, Qinghu.”
Qinghu was stunned for a moment, not understanding what she meant.
Lin Mengya’s lips curled into a gentle smile. She whispered a word into Qinghu’s ear.
“I… I will survive. Don’t worry.”
Qinghu, who always kept a straight face even in the most dangerous situation, grabbed Lin Mengya’s shoulders excitedly.
Lin Mengya patted him gently on his arms. She knew that Qinghu was a man of his word. Since he had promised, she would be at ease in the future.
In the next few days, there were many unfamiliar faces coming in and out of the village, which was far away from the Capital City.
However, this place was far from the official road, and even businessmen rarely came here. So everything here did not draw attention of others.
Although Lin Mengya stayed quietly in the village, her ears and eyes were all over the world.
“Ever since the new emperor ascended to the throne, he hasn’t conducted a wanton search for traitors. Furthermore, he has treated the officials of the former court well. All of the people praise him.”
In all the news, Lin Mengya always took priority over what was related to the new emperor.
After all, she still had concerns about him.
Long Tianyu had just ascended the throne, and he did not have a strong foundation. She had to help him keep an eye on some things in secret.
“Hum, this new emperor is good at gaining support. It’s said that the former Crown Prince has been imprisoned. However, if the new emperor keeps the former Crown Prince alive, it will cause endless troubles.”
The young man, who sat on the left side of Lin Mengya, was refined and handsome, but there was a cynical look in his eyes.
Unlike Long Qinghan, who pretended to be carefree, the young man was natural, unrestrained, and disdainful.
His personality was righteous and evil. He only followed his internal rules and was truly lawless.
But this man had a weakness. He was a martial arts maniac, and the martial arts he liked were all so vicious that he could kill someone with one move.
When he first heard Qinghu’s name, he was so cheeky to pester Qinghu for learning martial arts.
Qinghu valued the young man’s exceptional intelligence. The main reason was that the young man could use any means to achieve his goal, which he liked very much.
After passing through multiple tests, the young man was arranged at the Sanjue Hall.
This time, all elites of Sanjue Hall were sent out, and the young man stayed behind Qinghu and was willing to be his attendant.
However, he did not show enough respect to Lin Mengya. In his mind, he still had a prejudice against a woman who could wield power.
Especially when he noticed that the Hall Master was concerned so much about the news of the new emperor, he could not contain himself from speaking ill of the new emperor.
“Shi Bupo, if you dare to be rude to Hall Master again, I will tear your mouth!”
A burly man, who sat opposite Shi Bupo and had a rough face and full beard, shouted suddenly.
He widened his eyes and slammed his fan-like-sized hand on the tea table in front of him.
“Stupid big guy, do not act arrogant in front of me! Hall Master hasn’t spoken yet. Why are you anxious?”
Shi Bupo also glared, but his aura was not as powerful as the burly man’s. He looked weak and was unconsciously at a disadvantage.
The name of the burly man was Xu Shan, who was a famous hero in the martial world back then.
However, he had acted impulsively in his early years, so he was once poisoned secretly.
Afterward, Lin Mengya detoxified him personally. That was why Xu Shan volunteered to follow Lin Mengya for the rest of his life.
He sincerely admired the Hall Master, Lin Mengya. But Shi Bupo always mocked him about it. When they met, they were like enemies.
“Shut up, both of you.”
The cold voice instantly stopped their quarrel.
Qinghu held a cup of milk tea for Lin Mengya with a cold face and glared at them fiercely.
The reason why Qinghu selected them to be Lin Mengya’s bodyguards was that he had taken a fancy to them. One was quick-witted with sharp means, and the other was brave and resourceful.
Unexpectedly, when they were together, they would turn into cross-eyed men and bicker with each other anywhere at any time. It was such a headache!
Fortunately, Lin Mengya was not affected by them. Otherwise, Qinghu would lift one each in his hands, throw them out, and let them calm down for a while.
“Mengya, have a rest. If there is something to handle, just instruct them to do it.”
Lin Mengya’s face became thinner. Qinghu guessed that she did not sleep last night.
They had been out of the Capital City for three days, during which Lin Mengya not only dealt with the affairs of Sanjue Hall, but also had to pay attention to the movements of the court at any time. It was extremely hard for her.
Lin Mengya smiled at Qinghu. She did not take it seriously at all.
“Have our men found out anything about the former subordinates of Princess Tiancheng and the Shangguan family?”
In recent days, she had been feeling a little uneasy.
However, everything was normal at Sanjue Hall, without any mistakes.
Therefore, she felt somewhat at a loss and could not figure out what the problem was.
“A few days ago, some people inquired about them, but soon we lost track of them. Mengya, don’t worry. These people can’t make trouble anymore. Long… The new emperor ascended the throne and announced it to the world. Even if they come out, they won’t be able to make too much trouble. Some things will be messed up because of concern.”
“Was that so?”
Lin Mengya thought while looking at Qinghu. Perhaps she overthought it.
“Hum, the new emperor? I don’t see any difference. Hey, if I became the emperor one day, I would…”
Shi Bupu was still there saying mockery words. Lin Mengya, who had recovered from her thought, was in a very bad mood.
She glanced coldly at Shi Bupo, who was extremely bold. After that, his face immediately turned ashen. He clutched his throat tightly and couldn’t make a sound.
“If I hear one more word out of your mouth, disrespecting the new emperor, I’ll use poisons to dumb you.”
Lin Mengya’s tender voice sounded slightly cold.
Shi Bupo had always been so arrogant because of his talents that people in Sanjue Hall were all angry at him. Lin Mengya knew that.
However, no one dared to say anything because his means were too cruel.
This time, she just taught him a small lesson.
Qinghu looked at Shi Bupo whose face flushed gloatingly and thought that he deserved it.
Shi Bupu had never suffered a grievance like this. He was about to rush over and make trouble for Lin Mengya. But it was weird that Qinghu just stood aside and didn’t have the intention to stop Shi Bupo.
Shi Bupo’s heart skipped a beat. He felt very tired, and his legs went weak. Then he fell to the ground with a plop.
Just then, he was utterly shocked. His eyes were wide open. However, he had no clue who had plotted against him.
