Chapter 795 Crack the Hypnotism
Xin Yu spoke very fast. Before Lin Mengya raised her doubts, his dual-pupiled eyes flickered.
Her mind went blank for a moment. By the time she realized what was going on, she was keenly aware that a person other than the two of them had entered the courtyard.
“I’m done. Take her back.” Xin Yu regained his unfathomable expression and said after taking a stack of letter paper from Lin Mengya and leafing through them casually.
Feeling a blast of moist air, Lin Mengya heard the familiar bells again.
She turned around stiffly and saw the palace maid as she expected.
Lin Mengya didn’t know how long the palace maid had stood outside so that she was soaked through and looked like a ghost that had just climbed out of the water.
But the palace maid didn’t care about that. After bowing to Xin Yu, she shook the bell and took Lin Mengya out.
The heavy rain poured down, but Lin Mengya had to try hard to open her eyes and pretend that she didn’t care about the rain, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the palace maid, who always looked back at her inadvertently.
What happened today was beyond her expectation.
Xin Yu turned out to work for Zhu Yun and was going to assist her to find a certain thing here.
Moreover, Wanyan Jing didn’t care about his mother’s life or death at all, and the pawn he placed in the imperial palace turned out to be Madame Hui!
What was even more bizarre was that Long Tianyu held a grand funeral for her.
Gosh, did he really learn that she was still alive?
She was preoccupied by a series of doubts.
But now, the biggest problem Lin Mengya was faced with was that Xin Yu was going to tell Wanyan Jing that the hypnotism he used on her had been cracked.
God knew a scheming person like Wanyan Jing definitely wouldn’t spare her, a witness to what he had done.
At the thought that she had to endure the murderous gaze of the tremendously cold man every day, Lin Mengya felt that she seemed to have fallen into another abyss of misery.
Alas, why was her life in the ancient times always so thrilling and exciting?
Fortunately, she had a strong heart, otherwise, she probably would have been scared to death.
She let her mind wander all the way back to the Fengyu Court. If it weren’t for the windy downpour that prevented the palace maid walking ahead of her from seeing her expression clearly, she probably would have given herself away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter returning to her room, Lin Mengya breathed a sigh of relief.
Before Baisu returned, she prepared clean clothes and pills to ward off the cold for both of them.
As the window was opened and closed gently, Baisu, who had been secretly following her, appeared in front of her.
Thanks to the windy downpour that concealed Baisu’s sounds and breath, she was able to follow Lin Mengya closely and hear the complete conversation between Xin Yu and Lin Mengya in the empty yard.
“Rest assured, Miss. I will protect you closely all the time and give no one the chance to hurt you.” Baisu stared at Lin Mengya, who was in a daze, and said, at the thought that she was worried about this.
However, Lin Mengya shook her head and sighed helplessly.
She said, “I’m not worried about this, but just wondering if we have underestimated Wanyan Jing. As Xin Yu said, Wanyan Jing wants something more than the Lieyun Empire. He is overweeningly ambitious and of formidable means. Can we really bring him down?”
Only when she met a formidable enemy could she realize her shortcomings.
If she just had a narrow vision, she could only focus on the small world as far as she could see sooner or later.
However, at present, Lin Mengya was faced with an unimaginably formidable opponent.
Lin Mengya was not discouraged, but was baffled by the huge gap between her and her opponent.
“Miss, you’ve never let us down. In fact, when I stayed with the other sisters, we had worried that some things might be out of your reach. But no matter what happens, you managed to get through it, so we’re full of confidence in you. I know the situation is different this time, and you won’t be able to handle it as easily as before. But as far as I know, no one and nothing can stop you, right?” Baisu spoke her mind with a gentle smile.
Lin Mengya shook her head with a bitter smile. Although she felt more stressed, she was gratified to be trusted.
Even she discovered for the first time that she was such a responsible person.
Perhaps was it because the bonds between her and those people she cared about here had turned her from an orphan, who didn’t even care about her life and death, to a person, who did not hesitate to fight in order to protect those people she wanted to protect?
She hadn’t expected such a change, nor had she noticed it.
But life was more wonderful with such bonds.
“Well, I appreciate your kindness. Don’t worry. There will come brightness after gloom. Go to bed early, as we will be busy tomorrow. The Empress won’t admit her guilt obediently, so Madame and we will have to work hard on that,” Lin Mengya said.
She had always been a person who would have an amazing rebound under strong pressure.
She, who had sighed deeply and doubted her ability just now, soon got over it and made the next plan.
Wanyan Jing’s force was like an iceberg in the sea, and a large part of it might still be hidden beneath the sea.
In order to achieve the greatest success in a short period of time, Lin Mengya had to take drastic measures.
She wanted to play with fire. Whether she would bring down Wanyan Jing or bring trouble to herself depended on her ability!
After the heavy rain last night, the sky cleared up and the air was so fresh that she involuntarily felt relaxed.
She had gotten a message from Xiaoyu earlier that Wanyan Jing was going to return to the imperial palace in a few days.
Before that, she was in no danger for the time being.
Nevertheless, Xin Yu must have kept in contact with Wanyan Jing.
In this case, the news that the hypnotism Xin Yu used on her had been cracked would soon reach Wanyan Jing.
Before that, she must find a chance to crack the hypnotism smoothly.
The hypnotism could be automatically cracked by either great stimulation or great pain.
After weighing the two options over and over again, Lin Mengya finally chose the latter.
Regarding how to accomplish it, Lin Mengya believed that as long as she walked around outside, someone would definitely come to help her.
There were plenty of people in the imperial palace wanting to deal with her.
What the Empress had done enraged the Emperor and implicated lots of people.
Therefore, in the past few days, Madame had stayed in the Emperor’s chamber.
However, the current situation was not optimistic.
Despite witnesses and material evidence, the Empress had made up her mind to deny her guilt in any case.
Although she was imprisoned in the Linqiu Pavilion, she assumed an air of dignity of the Empress all the time and refused to admit her guilt and receive punishment.
Furthermore, she was the Eldest Prince’s mother, so no one dared to do anything to her.
Madame Jingrou was troubled by this, and even the Emperor was furious.
All the members of the Emperor’s chamber wailed silently in their hearts.
Even Xiaoyu frowned, at a loss what to do with the shameless Empress.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Sister, why is the Empress so shameless? Does she really think that my parents can do nothing to her?” Xiaoyu, who was beside Lin Mengya, complained angrily with dilated eyes.
Lin Mengya touched his head and maintained her smile without being upset by the Empress who was difficult to deal with.
She said, “His Majesty and Madame definitely have ways to deal with her, but they have to give consideration to something. I’ll deal with the Empress.”
On hearing that his sister was going to take action personally, Xiaoyu put his mind at ease.
However, at the thought of his sister’s current identity, he reached out to grab her sleeve.
He said, “No. My mother said that you’d better stay in the yard. Forget it. I’ll think of a way to handle this.”
Xiaoyu considered nothing more important than his sister.
What was more, he, who had held grudges against the Empress for a long time, would be gratified to take revenge on her personally.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya grabbed his hand and gently put it back on the table.
Lin Mengya and Baisu had agreed not to tell Xiaoyu about Xin Yu’s real identity, otherwise, it would put more pressure on him.
Since Lin Mengya had made up her mind to fight with Wanyan Jing, keeping an overly low profile would do her no good.
As such, she intended to attract attention, and the best way was to visit the Empress.
After all, the Empress was the focus of attention. Whoever got close to her would automatically attract attention.
“Xiaoyu, no matter how important the affairs in the imperial palace are, they are just battles among women. You’re destined to do great things in the future, so you’d better stay away from these romantic affairs as much as possible. In the future, I will definitely choose a tough woman as your wife, so that you won’t have to worry about these things,” Lin Mengya said, staring playfully at him who blushed in shameful rage.
She covered her smile with her hand and then stroked Xiaoyu’s head.
Men couldn’t quibble about the affairs of their harems. Taking Long Tianyu and the Emperor as examples, although they knew their beloved women would suffer grievances, they could only serve as the powerful backing of their beloved women rather than interfere in those affairs.
Men’s involvement would usually change a thing into something else.
Besides, she didn’t want Xiaoyu to be womanishly fussy.
“I don’t want a wife. I just need sister... and mother!” Xiaoyu muttered to himself in anger.
At the sight of this, Lin Mengya shook her head.
However, she immediately thought of something else.
She said, “Madame and I can’t stay with you for a lifetime, can we? Do you know a girl named Dongfang Xiu? She is a beautiful and lively girl about the same age as you. Besides, she has an uncle named Dongfang Xu.”
