Chapter 1217: Successive warnings
Lin Mengya's heart was relieved, knowing that this dead man probably understood what he meant.
But he made an impatient look on his face.
"His Royal Highness didn't specify what kind of tea I would take, so he was just making things difficult at will. Although my Gong Ya is not a golden branch and jade leaf, she is not a random person to be bullied. If Your Highness is not satisfied, you can go to someone else to serve! ”
These words made the faces of the other people in the flower hall change.
Murong Xi was indeed deliberately embarrassed and targeted at Gong Ya.
This can be seen from the two of them after they met.
But what surprised them was Gong Ya's attitude.
Remember before, didn't she still have a submissive attitude and settle things?
"Humph!"
Murong Xi seemed to be really angry, and his eyes looked at Gong Ya with a little coldness.
"Who do you think you're talking to?"
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Murong Xi at this time was completely enraged.
But Gong Ya looked like she was crazy and said regardless of it.
"Your Highness's status is precious, can you be unreasonable? If all the nobles in the world can bully those who are lower than their own bodies, then what is the use of the law? ”
"Are you saying that I have disobeyed the law? Or am I running amok? ”
"That's what His Highness said himself, I didn't say it!"
With a bang, the copper plate fell to the ground, and even the grapes on it fell all over the ground.
Gong Ya seemed to be frightened, and looked at Murong Xi in front of her in a daze.
Gong Wu secretly screamed in his heart, stepped forward, grabbed his sister's sleeve, and knelt in front of Murong Xi.
"Please let Your Highness calm your anger, it was the little sister who was arrogant for a while and lost her sense of proportion, Gong Yu will go back, she must be strictly disciplined, and she will not dare to disobey Your Highness!"
Even the people in the family were surprised, but the reaction speed was also very fast.
Even the old man and Mrs. Lian immediately pleaded, Murong Xi's face was extremely ugly, but Gong Ya had already knelt down and admitted her mistake, so she didn't continue to be angry.
"Today's matter, I can ignore it, Gong Ya, you can do it yourself!"
Murong Xi finally relented, and Gong Wu immediately pulled his sister and left after thanking him.
The two of them walked out of the courtyard quickly, and Gong Wu finally sent his sister to the carriage, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's going on today? Just now, it really scared me. I know you don't like this grand and welcoming Highness Xi, but whether this is in Longdu or Lianjia, you should be more patient. ”
Gong Wu's tone was not to blame, in fact, he also saw that His Royal Highness Xi was not very pleasing to the eye.
However, today is the home of the Lian family, and the two of them can not be afraid of Murong Xi, but it will not be good if the Lian family is affected.
"Fifth brother, someone wants to harm Uncle Lian's family."
Her voice was so small that only the two siblings could hear her.
Gong Wu's reaction speed was very fast, and as soon as he heard her words, he lifted the curtain of the carriage, pretended to be inadvertent, and looked around.
"There are indeed people around Lian's house, do you know who they are?"
The expressions of the two brothers and sisters became serious, and Gong Wu knew that his sister was definitely not the kind of person who would be willful and mess around.
Lin Mengya shook her head.
"Now I only know that they sent grapes in the name of Murong Xi. After you go back for a while, you must use a secret method to remind the Lian family. ”
Her cooperation with Long Tianyu just now has made the grapes lose the possibility of poisoning the Lian family.
Long Tianyu must have understood what she meant, but there are no thieves, where can they attract foreign ghosts?
I don't know if it's a problem on Long Tianyu's side, or the bane planted by Lian's family.
In short, if they act rashly, they will not have the upper hand.
"I understand, why don't I have someone take you home first?"
Lin Mengya shook her head and rejected his proposal.
"You also saw it just now, there are already those people's eyeliners around Lianfu. If I leave now, there's no guarantee they won't catch up. Today in the mansion, in addition to the Lian family and His Royal Highness Xi, there are only two of us brothers and sisters. Wouldn't it be even more dangerous if their purpose was ours, and I was left alone? ”
In fact, there is another reason why she is not leaving.
Judging from the evidence available now, the other party tried to murder the Lian family in the name of Long Tianyu.
This is also why she was alone in the tea bowl, leaving clues for Long Tianyu.
Obviously, no matter whether this matter is successful or not, even the family and Long Tianyu will have a disagreement.
There are so many places to make a fuss about this matter.
Therefore, she must let Long Tianyu know in advance so that she can seize the opportunity.
"Well, remember, if there's anything out of the ordinary, leave it alone and find a safe place to hide yourself. Don't worry about me, you know? ”
Gong Wu weighed it, and now the Gong family and the Lian family are already advancing and retreating together.
What's more, he must go in again and inform Lian Shibo of them.
Nodding, Lin Mengya asked Gong Wu not to worry about herself.
Gong Wu was still a little uneasy, but under Lin Mengya's repeated assurances, he still returned to Lianfu again.
Time passes minute by minute.
Lin Mengya only felt that her life was like a year, and her heart was very anxious, but now that it was her, she couldn't do anything at all.
She had done everything she could, and the only thing she could do to help now was not to mess with them.
However, since Long Tianyu is here, then she doesn't need to worry too much about everything.
She knows her own man better than anyone else, does she?
At this moment, Lin Mengya's own man, who was thinking about her, was sitting in the flower hall, with a gloomy face, but her mind was churning up and down.
How the hell did she do it?
Murong Xi only felt a little magical, the cup of tea she brought him just now, he had just opened it, and he saw that there were two vaguely recognizable handwriting on the teacup - 'poisonous'!
The handwriting was brown and quickly vanished.
But he knew that this must be a warning from Gong Ya.
What is poisonous? He suddenly remembered that she seemed to have paid attention to the grapes in the copper plate just now.
Without much thought, he found an excuse to knock over the copper plate.
Sure enough, there was a relieved expression in her eyes.
Not to mention how she found it, but this grape was sent to Lian's house by her own people.
Who wants to frame him?
"Your Highness Xi, there are many offences in today's affairs, and I hope that Your Highness, don't blame Gong Ya. She is just a daughter's family, it is inevitable that she will be a little arrogant, and His Royal Highness is tolerant, and he must not be willing to deal with her as a girl. ”
Lian Sheng stood up and said everything to Gong Ya.
Murong Xi was naturally not really angry, but the drama still had to be done.
Gong Ya didn't give a clear warning just now, it must be a fraud.
It seems that today they have become turtles in an urn.
"That's it."
He spoke coldly, as if he was a little impatient.
Lian Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, and he didn't say much.
He greeted people and served everyone tea again.
"I'm not busy drinking tea first, I have something I want to ask Lord Lian."
"Don't dare, Your Highness just said it."
"How long has Lord Lian been the commander of the Praetorian Guard?"
Lian Sheng didn't understand what he meant, but he still lowered his head and thought for a while before answering.
"It's been more than five years."
"In that case, the Lord must be well aware of all the defenses in the Dragon Capital?"
Seeing that he was quite interested, Lian Sheng had no choice but to nod.
Murong Xi pondered for a moment before he said in a deep voice.
"Then in the fifteenth year of Yongchang, the incident on the fifth day of the third month, if it was done by an adult, what should it do?"
Lian Sheng was stunned and looked at Murong Xi in confusion.
The latter's eyes were uninteresting, making him unpredictable.
That thing... Mo not...
"I just think that things today are much similar to those of then. I heard that the emperor was very tolerant at that time, and he must have set a model for us and should follow suit. ”
When Murong Xi finished saying the last word, Lian Sheng's eyes changed slightly.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Lian Xing, who didn't understand at all, just wanted to ask, but saw Gong Wu, who had gone and returned, come in again.
"Fifth Brother Gong, you're back."
He immediately greeted him, but Gong Wu quickly said a sentence with his lips when only two people saw it.
This is something they used to play with on a whim when they were young, so now, even Xing understands what he means in an instant.
"Lianxing, you go to your mother's side, she has something to tell you. Your Royal Highness, I still have some official business to deal with, so I won't accompany you. ”
Lian Xing immediately walked to Mrs. Lian, who didn't know anything, and in the flower hall, there was silence all of a sudden.
"Even my lord, I'll go with you."
Murong Xi got up and said, Lian Sheng hesitated for a moment before nodding.
But as soon as the two of them came out of the flower hall, they saw outside the door, Xu Yan, a tea doctor who was loyal to the Lian family, had fallen to the ground, and his life and death were unknown.
And behind him, the attendant who had followed Gong Ya and accompanied her to the small kitchen stood aside with his head down.
"Xu Yan, what's going on?"
He walked three steps in a row and two steps, but suddenly changed direction in the middle of the way, and slashed at the squire.
The man's reaction speed was also top-notch, and he bounced off in an instant, and there was an extra half-arm-long short knife in his hand.
"It's you!"
Lian Sheng shouted hatefully, today he is in the mansion, and he does not carry a sword.
But a pair of fleshy palms were not afraid of the opponent's sharp blades and met them.
"What are you waiting for, do it!"
The man was pushed so hard that he pulled his neck and shouted.
Suddenly, many people with sharp blades rushed out of the courtyard, and they instantly pressed over.
"Your Highness, please go back to the flower hall first!"
Two fists are hard to beat with four hands, not to mention, these people are all prepared, their martial arts are very ruthless, and their moves are all aimed at killing.
Murong Xi did not answer, but instead pulled out the long sword that never left his waist and joined the battle group.
