Chapter 351 Imaginary Rival in Love (1/2)
“I’m leaving now. You may do your own work.”
Lin Mengya cleverly left Long Tianyu’s study. As soon as she went out, she almost ran into someone.
“Sorry… Your Highness! What a coincidence that I meet you here!”
A slightly familiar voice abruptly sounded from above her head.
Lin Mengya lifted up her head and was surprised to see Qiu Yu.
“So strange. Wasn’t this person in the palace? How could he appear in Prince Yu’s Mansion?”
“Why are you here?”
Lin Mengya was a little curious. Before she left the palace, she did tell Qiu Yu how to contact her.
After all, the situation in the palace was quite complicated. If she wanted to detoxify the emperor, she had to keep communications with Qiu Yu.
But he had searched for her on his own.
“Is there something unexpected happening about the emperor’s body and he cannot handle it?”
Seeing no one around, Lin Mengya dragged him to a hidden corner.
But she couldn’t have thought that just at the moment when she was leaving, Long Tianyu would come out of the study, puzzlement on his face.
“What, what are you doing?”
Qiu Yu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. It seemed that the girl had been secretive since the first time they met.
It seemed like she had something to hide. But maybe she had her own difficulties.
“Did something happen in the palace? Tell me the truth, is the emperor’s condition getting worse?”
Looking at Lin Mengya’s eyes full of anxiety, Qiu Yu burst out laughing.
So that was it. It seemed that Lin Mengya misunderstood his sudden visit. He shook his head with a smile and whispered,
“You can rest assured that the emperor is fine. “I’m here because…”
Before he could finish his sentence, another sound interrupted him right then.
“If you have something to discuss, why not come to my study? Mengya, you can come with us, too.”
The sudden appearance of Long Tianyu startled Lin Mengya.
She immediately relaxed her grip on Qiu Yu’s sleeves, seeming as if she had been caught doing something wrong.
Long Tianyu just glanced at Qiu Yu. There was a bit of chill in his eyes, as if he was tolerating something.
The strange atmosphere made Qiu Yu, the innocent third party, feel it was a little bit unbearable.
He let out a dry cough and went to greet him politely.
“Greetings of peace to Prince Yu. In fact, I’m here mainly to discuss with you about the medications for His Majesty.”
Qiu Yu immediately explained his purpose in coming. In truth, with so many princes in the capital city, he had seen almost each and every one of them.
However, Prince Yu was the most powerful and coldest of them all.
If it wasn’t because he was really in trouble and needed to go to Prince Yu’s Mansion to discuss things with Lin Mengya, he would not dare to visit the place casually.
And just then, he seemed to have offended Prince Yu.
It was a tricky matter.
“Oh, I see.”
After replying in a calm manner, Long Tianyu turned around first and walked back to his study.
Lin Mengya looked at him while puzzled. Seemingly, she felt that Long Tianyu was not in a good mood. Did she do something wrong?
Qiu Yu wanted to say something but stopped. Looking at that embarrassed couple, he eventually shut his mouth, not saying another word. If he guessed right, Prince Yu seemed to be jealous.
“How interesting”. During his lifetime, he could see such a cold and aloof prince getting a little upset just for a woman, which seemed to be worthwhile.
The three of them returned to the study, but at the moment they were all silent.
Qiu Yu and Long Tianyu exchanged looks from time to time, detecting a flicker of exploration and suspicion in each other’s eyes.
Only Lin Mengya, who was at the center of their confrontation, frowned and pondered over the proper business.
So she didn’t even notice the current tension between the two men around her.
“There are no outsiders here. Doctor Qiu, please just say it. What exactly do you need us to do this time?”
Lin Mengya suddenly said that. With that, the confrontation between the two men was completely concealed in an instant.
“Actually, I’ve been commissioned by several ministers this time. Now the situation in the palace is still unclear, and since the princess left the palace, the people in the Court of Imperial Physicians have relapsed. If His Majesty’s illness continues to drag on, I’m afraid it will be bad.”
After hearing that, a look of worry flashed across Lin Mengya’s eyebrows.
The only thing she didn’t have was enough time.
However, detoxification was a thing that could not be rushed.
The prescription given by the Shen Nung System was indeed good, but the poison inside the emperor’s body was too complicated.
