Chapter 172: Ungrateful and Heartless

“Oh, teacher, what do you want the jade box for? For nest eggs?”

Lin Mengya gradually reached a conclusion from her contacts with Baili Rui: that fuddy-duddy needed to be treated with unusual means.

Especially that daring way, making no difference between the old man and her, got them much closer.

Baili Rui rolled his eyes at Lin Mengya. Although she seemed to not respect him, Lin Mengya was really a genius in poisoning.

She was even more talented than his senior brother known as the God of Poison.

He had been a loser when competing with his senior.

If his student defeated his senior, his long-cherished wish would be fulfilled.

“It is Dragon Soul Grass. I’ve checked it. This woman may be able to survive, but she is still too weak in health. If I really bring her back to life through poisoning, her body may be not bear it. But Dragon Soul Grass is different. It’s said that it has an effect to protect the patient’s soul.”

Baili Rui cautiously took a light purple herb from another room. Lin Mengya, with her foot lifted, watched Baili Rui who was nervous at the moment.

“Teacher, aren’t you a non-believer of ghosts and gods?”

Baili Rui had no time to reply. He carefully transplanted the light purple Dragon Soul Grass into the jade box.

“They say, it can protect the soul. In fact, what it protects is the vein. But it is a little special. I have to feed her it in fresh condition three times.”

Looking at her teacher’s serious expression, Lin Mengya realized that the herb must be very precious.

“I hope, the jade box can nourish the Dragon Soul Grass.”

Teacher was determined. Then, Madam Wang had a great possibility to survive.

After that, she was about to plan something else.

“Teacher, when will Madam Wang wake up in the light of her current condition?”

Baili Rui looked back to the woman lying on the bed. She had recovered her life now, but it was still unknown when she would wake up.

“I don’t know. Maybe she will never wake up. I’m not sure.”

Baili Rui didn’t care about anyone’s life. But that woman was a very rare case. Lin Mengya told him that all the woman’s organs had been taken out.

Besides, there were many unusual poisons inside her body.

Baili Rui had discussed with Lin Mengya about that. They concluded that those poisons might be causing her dead-like state.

There was no record about that kind of case, even in medical books.

Once he figured out the cure, he would have achieved a victory over his senior brother.

“It’s her destiny. Teacher, I still have something else to deal with. I’ll leave now. Inform me if you need something.”

Lin Mengya walked out of the stone room. Outside was Baili Wuchen, who was chillingly gazing at her.

“Stop.”

When Lin Mengya passed by, Baili Wuchen shouted for her to stop.

Lin Mengya, who had already felt the slight hostility from Baili Wuchen, stood there.

“What’s the matter?”

Both of them faced each other with their backs. No one would like to turn their back first.

“Do you think you can gain the prince’s credibility through pleasing my uncle?”

Baili Wuchen didn’t know the reason why his uncle would regard Lin Mengya with special attention, and why the prince attached more importance to her.

“You must be confused. I’m not pleasing your uncle, neither am I flattering anyone for the Prince. There is no reason for me to do this. Your uncle treats me as his student. And, I am the Princess. I should gain the Prince’s credibility.”

In fact, Lin Mengya knew clearly. Baili Wuchen hated her, because he thought that Lin Mengya was about to take his place.

Besides, Baili Rui treated him strictly.

But he treated her so closely. Therefore, Baili Wuchen felt very uncomfortable.

“You—such a little girl! How could you understand men’s ambitions. If you ruin our thing, I will never spare you even though the Prince may protect you.”

Lin Mengya burst into laughter, as if she had heard a joke.

“Ambition? Baili Wuchen, what ambition can you have after you framed your uncle? Heartless and ungrateful ambition? Even your close uncle can be used by you. Then, what else under the sun can’t be used? You feel wronged because you thought that you had framed your uncle in order to achieve your business for the Prince. Therefore, you tried to suppress your guilt. But, did the Prince ask you to kidnap your uncle? Did your ambition ask you to behave ungratefully?”

What Lin Mengya said pierced through Baili Wuchen’s heart like a dagger.

Baili Wuchen turned round and heatedly stared at Lin Mengya.

“What do you know? I did this for the Prince, for Dajin!”

Lin Mengya turned round, too, but there was still a smile on her face.

“For the Prince, or for yourself!? Baili Wuchen, think about it! Dajin would never need a heartless, ungrateful hero!”

After uttering her last words, Lin Mengya turned round and left without hesitation.

Baili Wuchen remained standing still on the same spot.

The food container suddenly weighed more than a thousand jin.

Baili Wuchen’s intelligent brain seemed to turn ambiguous at that moment.

The memories of how his uncle brought him up and cultivated him to be a useful man, came to his mind.

Baili Wuchen was in low spirits; he walked close to the door of the stone room. For the first time, he knelt on the ground, in sincere contrition.

Out of the dungeon, Lin Mengya looked up to the warm sun, in a somber mood.

Large amounts of people had been losing their humanity and their soul just for fame and wealth.

Lin Mengya looked back to the dungeon, and thought to herself that, Baili Wuchen would realize what was wrong with himself.

Lin Mengya returned from the park, and from far away, she saw Qinghu and Xiaoyu criticizing each other.

“It’s all your fault! My little girl wouldn’t have been grounded, if you were found on time.”

Qinghu, with a pot of chrysanthemum in one hand and another hand on his waist, glared at Xiaoyu.

“I was restricted on that day. But didn’t you wear a women’s dress, and got in there?” “How could you not notice? Were you blind?”

Xiaoyu glimpsed at Lin Mengya in a casual way, and then, as if he saw nothing, he continued his quarrel with Qinghu.

“Hey! Are you blaming me? I only have a pair of eyes! It was beyond my ability to take my little girl in my sight. Where were your people at that time? Why didn’t they show up to protect the little girl?”

Qinghu and Lin Zhongyu, who had an excellent appearance, presented a different charm while quarreling.

Lin Mengya smiled and shook her head. She had seen through both of them, and knew that they were amusing her through a quarrel, otherwise she would be too stupid to understand their intention.

Upon arriving at her yard, Lin Mengya saw her Snows running from inside her room towards her, and circling around her.

“Hello, my little guys, have you been alright?”

Lin Mengya held a baby tiger up. Its shining eyes, like a cat’s eyes, looked at her.

‘It looks very good.’

Snow looked like a brother, and didn’t get jealous nor made a noise, and it quietly squatted by Lin Mengya’s foot as it watched her holding the baby tiger.

“Snow, come here.”

Lin Mengya held the two of them in her arms.

Both of them, who were active just then, instantly quieted down, and each found a cozy corner, comfortably staying in Lin Mengya’s embrace.

“Master, what about Madam Wang?”

In the pavilion, Baiji had already prepared chrysanthemum tea, and Baizhi brought seasonal fruits.

Baishao brought a fox-fur robe while Baisu was on her guard and looked around.

“Teacher told me that, Madam Wang survived. But whether she could wake up or not is still unknown.”

Her maids were all obedient to her.

Lin Mengya put both Snows by her side, and turned around to see the two people, who were violently quarreling.

“When will you stop your bantering? If you don’t stop and come now, then continue until it turns dark.”

Since the subject of their quarrel said that, Qinghu and Lin Zhongyu agreed to stop, and walked into the pavilion.

Lin Zhongyu, who was the youngest and the most beloved by Lin Mengya, sweetly smiled and sat close to her.

Although Qinghu wanted to sit there, he had to reluctantly sit across her, after he received her cold look.

“Things about witchcraft had to end with such a result. However, more people will keep their eyes on us. Mentally prepare yourselves. We have to pay more attention in the future.”

The thing of spells in cinnabar reminded Lin Mengya that, Prince Yu’s Mansion had been at others’ service.

It revealed a trouble that, the Jiang family, the Lin family, even including every noble family related with Prince Yu, had been taken into the Crown Prince’s consideration.

Fortunately, the Crown Prince was stupid enough. His attempt at sowing discord led those noble families to get closer to Prince Yu.

Something was going to happen in the Capital City.

“We were indeed not alert enough this time. Please punish us, Master.”

Baisu was in charge of warning them about potential dangers in the yard.

However, Baisu had failed to see someone bury something in there. Therefore, a disaster was brought.

After a moment of thought, Lin Mengya believed that, it was better to tell them a part of her plan.

“It’s not your fault. I was careless on that day. And I was too kind. So I won’t make mistakes this time.”

Jiang Ruqin was taken home by Minister Jiang.

She would never be allowed to get into Prince Yu’s Mansion for as long as she lived.

And as for Wang Hanlin, Long Tianhao had checked his study room, finding nothing wrong with it.

So there were two possibilities. Either Wang Hanlin was innocent, or he was too cautious to be found by Long Tianhao.

Ming Yue was said to have been criticized, and soon, King Ming would take her back to their state.

Therefore, Lin Mengya had time to focus on her fight with the Crown Prince.

“Tonight, bring Miss Wang here. Remember, don’t let anyone else know that. Four of you come with me to the Prince’s study room.”

Four of them nodded. Although they didn’t know what their master was planning,

They still knew clearly that Master was really irritated that time.
