Chapter 206 Everything Was Perfec (1/2)

“Why did he believe me so firmly?”

Lin Mengya gaped at Long Tianhao, as if she didn’t believe what he had said just now.

“Mother may have given it her own consideration. But now, I’m an adult. She can’t make the decision for me about some things anymore.”

A sadness that was never exposed previously silently rose in Long Tianhao’s eyes.

One day seemed like a year in the palace. He and his mother, Concubine De, had supported each other in order to make today’s achievements.

But for no reason, his mother turned into having no sense of right or wrong.

That made him feel wistful.

“Your Highness, have you ever thought about why Concubine De suddenly changed her disposition?”

Lin Mengya pondered for a moment, then she spoke with something profound in her words.

“Perhaps… she changed because of the death of Aunt Jinyue, maybe?”

There was a slight hesitation in his answer. He, himself, might know that this reason was not difficult to refute.

“Concubine De and Your Highness feel sorry for the death of Aunt Jinyue, so do I. But Concubine De acts different than her normal behavior, a significant personality shift. Your Highness, I believe you have noticed that as well. But you just refuse to admit it.”

Having said this, if Long Tianhao failed to grasp the implications she told him, Lin Mengya had no other methods to help him.

“Mother, did she—”

Long Tianhao suddenly had his ideas straightened out, and he gaped at Lin Mengya with wide-opened eyes.

“From the day the empress suddenly asked to have Concubine De stay with her, I’ve realized that it would not be as simple as we expected.”

Lin Mengya had no evidence. What she said was just her guess.

Long Tianhao clenched his fists and averted his complicated eyes to the direction of the Art Courtyard.

“It’s true that the only one in the world capable of making mother change her disposition is that woman in the Imperial Palace.”

“Your Highness, you’d better figure out for yourself what the truth actually is. I’m okay to go back alone. I’ll see myself out.”

After all, it was still Long Tianhao’s domestic affair.

Lin Mengya was unwilling to get involved too much. Long Tianhao was a man of dignity, while she was also a woman of principle.

Standing before the door of Art Courtyard, and looking in the direction of that figure disappearing, Long Tianhao’s face showed the overwhelming expression like he was the master of everything.

“Night, gather every member of the Qing Sect. I need you to investigate something.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

His low voice floated in the air as usual.

He averted his eyes to the direction of the Imperial Palace.

“Take drastic measures to deal with a situation. Well done! The empress, she is truly vicious!”

When Lin Mengya came back from Art Courtyard and arrived at Liuxin Courtyard, she found that the four maids were still awake. They were playing the “Fight the Landlord” with Lin Zhongyu and Qinghu respectively.

Looking at them enjoying themselves, Lin Mengya felt much more at ease.

She went and sat in the pavilion, gazing at the bright moon hanging up in the sky.

Although she lived an extravagant life in Prince Yu’s Mansion, she still felt exhausted physically and mentally.

However, in order to protect those people she cared about, Lin Mengya would like to face even immense dangers and difficulties alone.

“It’s crisp like the cool water. Why is this beauty staying alone?”

Yunzhu’s voice unexpectedly arose from behind.

Lin Mengya turned her head, only to see a pretty face.

Her skin seemed a little loose, and there was an extremely obvious scar at the bottom of the left side of her face. If one ignored them, Yunzhu was really a beauty in her old age.

“Beauty does not suit me. But you are really going to be a beauty.”

Yunzhu was a frequent guest to Liuxin Courtyard. Those people outside Liuxin Courtyard knew little about her visit while those people inside Liuxin Courtyard got used to her presence.

Different from her usual manner of dressing in a black cloth and black veil, Yunzhu, today, apparently showed hints of dressing herself up.

Even her cloudy hair-clasp possessed a natural grace.

There was a kind of beauty whose beauty could even be seen when her face was covered up.

Apparently, Yunzhu was that kind of beauty.

“Haha, don’t tease me, Master. I’m just a useless woman. Thanks for your appreciation.”

Yunzhu walked over and sat in front of Lin Mengya.

It actually made her feel more comfortable to not have a veil on her face and to not be afraid of others’ looks.

Because of that, Yunzhu felt more appreciative of Lin Mengya.

“A beauty in the south, as gorgeous as peaches. Do you like peach blossoms?”

Two lines came to her mind, and then Lin Mengya turned and looked at Yunzhu.

Yunzhu stood still for a moment and then she gave a faint smile.

Although she was not as beautiful as peaches and plums, her eyes were so sexually charming that they had the power to make men crazy.

At the moment, Lin Mengya came to realize why her teacher, who was proud and arrogant, had given up his life for the lady in front of her.

The brightness and cleanness in her beautiful eyes conquered him to love her for his whole life.

She was charming, tender, and gorgeous beyond expression. Even Lin Mengya, as a woman, could not help herself falling for her.

It could be imagined how stunning the top beauty in Capital City that year actually was.
