Lin Mengya complained as she helped Baili Rui walk into the room.

As soon as they entered the room, Lin Mengya glanced around inadvertently, only to find the messy room had been cleaned up now.

The central room of the courtyard was quite spacious. Her teacher, who was a workaholic, had paid little attention to such trifles as his quality of life.

But now, not only the room had been cleaned up, but also the living area and work area had been clearly divided.

Even her teacher’s clothes were clean with a faint fragrance of soap.

It definitely didn’t look like a bachelor’s residence!

After walking around, Lin Mengya suddenly showed a wicked smile, leaned close to her teacher’s ear, and said while winking, “Teacher, you’re living quite a pleasing life. Tell me the truth, do you plan to marry Yunzhu?”

Baili Rui, who had been used to Lin Mengya’s impertinence, could only foam with rage.

In front of this mischievous girl, he was no longer the intimidating Saint of Poison he had been.

“Wretched girl, do you have any respect for your teacher?” He said reproachfully.

Lin Mengya had always turned up her nose at her teacher’s resort to sophistry in covering up his thoughts.

Rolling her eyes at Baili Rui, she suddenly patted him on the shoulder like an old friend of him and tried to enlighten her stubborn teacher in earnest, “Teacher, I don’t mean to criticize you, but I want to tell you that a wedding means a lot to women after all. Besides, the two of you have wasted all these years. It’s not too late for you to get married now. Of course, I couldn’t agree more with your marriage, so you don’t have to worry about the disapproval of your immature student. What’s more, I lost my mother when I was a child. If you marry Yunzhu, there will be one more person to dote on me.”

As Lin Mengya said, she clasped her arm around Baili Rui’s shoulder and acted like a spoiled daughter in front of her father.

Baili Rui could not help sighing as he gazed at Lin Mengya, who seemed to be teasing him but actually said that for his own good.

Then he said, “I… want to take her as my wife, but we don’t need to do that. Speaking of this, I’ve heard about what happened these days. How dare the bastard bully you! I’ll teach him a lesson when I’m free.”

Hearing her teacher’s words, Lin Mengya couldn’t help smiling.

It turned out that Baili Rui drove away all the guards to vent his anger on Long Tianyu.

Thinking of this, Lin Mengya thought that her husband was really wronged. But what her teacher had done warmed her heart.

“It’s fine, teacher. What has happened to me is not as complicated as it seems, and I believe I can tackle the problem soon. So you can set your mind at ease and marry Yunzhu. Only if you settle down can I set my mind at ease, right?” Lin Mengya sat in a chair beside her teacher and said with delight.

She let down all her guard in front of her teacher and was just a thoughtful student who hoped that her teacher could take the initiative.

“Alas, silly girl, I know you are going on the trip. In this case, I can only give you a gift for self-protection,” Baili Rui said.

Lin Mengya surprisedly watched him rummage through the cupboard and fetch a dusty carved box.

Baili Rui stared at the box with a complicated expression, which seemed to be a mixture of pride and sorrow and thousands of words, that were on the tip of his tongue but he had to swallow.

Lin Mengya stared at her teacher quietly, thinking in fact, her teacher was also a person with rich life experience, but he chose to keep his experience in his mind like most people.

“I’ve told you before that back then our Baili Family occupied a leading position in the poison-making circle, but the disturbance many years ago caused most of the members of the poison-making circle to suffer heavy losses. Now, you are going to seek the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass that can save your life, but the members of the poison-making circle consider it a sacred object. I assume that you will have plenty of competitors. Therefore, if the members of the poison-making circle see this thing I give you, they will definitely show you some respect. At least, in the current situation where the poison-making circle has been declining, they will try to avoid internal conflicts,” Baili Rui said seriously with a solemn look.

It must be extremely difficult for him to put what had happened behind and move on.

Lin Mengya knelt respectfully in front of Baili Rui, watching him open the box and take a black seal out of it.

Baili Rui stared at the black seal with mixed feelings and seemed to be reluctant to give it away. Finally, he showed a decisive look in his eyes and placed it on her palms.

She reached out to take the seal from Baili Rui.

Then she frowned slightly, thinking why it looked so familiar.

Baili Rui casually put the box on the table and seemed to be relieved.

Finally, he unloaded the heavy burden he had shouldered.

Without any strings to tie him down, now he felt much more relaxed.

“Teacher, is it…” Lin Mengya decided to keep her doubt to herself before asking the question.

Although she had an intuition that this mustn’t be a coincidence, she was not completely sure of it now. Therefore, she could only keep it a secret for the time being.

Glancing at the black seal on her snow-white palms with complicated emotions, Baili Rui finally looked away and said, “In fact, I’ve been hunted because of it. But it’s all over. Even if someone gets a hold of it, it can no longer play its part. Now I give it to you just because I hope it could protect you. Remember, you must never show it to anyone other than the members of the poison-making circle.”

Lin Mengya nodded with only a hazy notion, speechless.

Her teacher gave her a hot potato. But given that he did that out of kindness, she could only accept it and keep it properly, which was the best way to repay her teacher.

“Teacher, I will remember your instructions. By the way, I’ve changed my mind. I’m not going to take the medicine you gave me last time. In fact, it’s just as well. In this way, both Long Tianyu and I can have a chance to choose again. If I can come back alive, I’m going to spend the rest of my life with him. If I can’t, I hope that he can enjoy the rest of his life. So teacher, you should marry Yunzhu so that I don’t have to worry about anything.” In the end, Lin Mengya, who was supposed to be leaving, muttered her innermost thought with her back to Baili Rui.

Her eyes were drifting, because she was reading the introduction of the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass in the music score for the green stringed instrument at the same time.

The Seven Poisons Sacred Grass, known as the most violent poison around the world, was severe and capable of bringing the dying back to life and getting rid of all kinds of poisons. At the same time, it could kill a person as soon as he touched it.

If she used it as medicine, she would have only a one-in-a-hundred chance of surviving.

Therefore, it was a significant gamble for Lin Mengya. Whether she and Long Tianyu could win or not depended on her unfounded luck.

“Alas.”

Lin Mengya heard a sigh of reluctance from the room.

“Wow, I’m such a big trouble. Even the Saint of Poison felt sorry for me and sighed. In this life, I finally got something to brag about.” As she thought, she gave an order, “Let’s go back.”

Then she got into the sedan chair, closed her eyes slightly and leaned against the sedan chair lazily for a rest, seeming to be exhausted.

The sedan carriers didn’t walk slowly, but they didn’t stop after a long while she spent in the sedan chair.

“Baiji, haven’t we arrived home yet?” She couldn’t help asking, but it was strange that she got no response from Baiji.

Lin Mengya immediately opened her eyes and lifted the curtain of the sedan with her small hands, only to find she had been carried quietly to an unfamiliar corner.

The sedan carriers in front of and behind the sedan chair all lowered their heads, so that their faces and expressions could not be seen clearly.

Lin Mengya realized something was wrong, thinking she probably had been trapped!

She did not make any sound, as she knew very well that since the wire-puller did not kill her on the spot, it meant that the wire-puller wanted to keep her alive.

But where had Baiji been taken? Was she still alive? Lin Mengya, who found herself in danger, was still worried about her maid.

Lin Mengya could vaguely see through the curtain of the sedan chair and found it seemed to be a place not far from the Capital City.

However, this was the place where the members of the royal family, who had disobeyed the Emperor, were detained.

Could it be that someone intended to detain her here so that no one could discover her?

After thinking for a while, Lin Mengya thought it was impossible.

Both the Empress and the Emperor had sent their spies to keep an eye on her. Since she was carried here in a sedan chair, it was impossible to keep it a secret.

Unless…

At this moment, Lin Mengya could only clench her fists and hope that things would go as she predicted.

She must stay alive, safe and sound! Otherwise, Long Tianyu would definitely lose his mind!

The sedan chair moved speedily and finally stopped outside an inconspicuous courtyard.

Lin Mengya heard some sounds from outside, but she kept hiding in the sedan chair cautiously.

“Your Highness, may you live long for a thousand years. His Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time. Please get out of the sedan chair as soon as possible.” The eunuch’s neuter voice confirmed part of Lin Mengya’s speculation.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Mengya subconsciously adjusted her hair, hair ornaments and dress. After making sure that she was flawless, she gracefully stepped forward and said, “Thank you.”

Lin Mengya was still gentle and polite. Although she was at a disadvantage, she would not lower her head easily.

“Your Highness, thank you for coming here. His Majesty is waiting for you inside,” the humble eunuch said, treating her as respectfully as before.

Only Lin Mengya knew clearly that she was in a different situation now.
