Chapter 737: The Beautiful Scenery in a Foreign Land

Chapter 737 The Beautiful Scenery in a Foreign Land

It had been a long time since his father, the Emperor, visited his mother’s palace. Even if his father did, his father only stayed for a while to talk over some domestic affairs with his mother and then hurried back to the imperial study.

He didn’t understand how grieved his mother, who pretended to be strong, was before, but after he fell in love with Ya’er, he did.

At the same time, Long Tianyu began to doubt his father’s words.

Why was an Emperor destined to be ruthless to those around him?

But if the Emperor couldn’t even protect those around him, how could he shelter his country and benefit his people?

Even Long Tianyu himself was unaware that his love for Lin Mengya had gradually completed his love for his country, which could only emerge as time went by.

At least, for now, he was unaware of it.

“His Majesty is occupied with a myriad of state affairs, so of course it is reasonable for him to neglect such trivial matters. Besides, my father felt guilty about what happened to my brother. By the way, since you have come out, who is helping you with your work?” Lin Mengya said.

She knew clearly that Long Tianyu would not doubt her words at all.

In fact, she also trusted Long Tianyu.

Nevertheless, she had seen through the Emperor’s attitude toward the Lin Family, so she had to lie for the sake of her family’s safety.

Her father and brother were indeed going back to their hometown, but they would set off for the Nation of Lintian as soon as they got there.

Of course, at Hongyu’s suggestion, Lin Mengya had thought of a way for her father and brother to leave their hometown.

After her father and brother secretly arrived at the Nation of Lintian, her two cousins would definitely take care of them and guarantee their safety.

Moreover, her father and brother had always wanted to see the place where her mother had lived.

This time they could visit her mother’s hometown.

“Don’t worry. With Qinghan and Yixin in the Capital City, there won’t be any problems. Besides, my father seems to be aware that I have come out. As soon as I got out of the Capital City, he sent an imperial edict to our mansion to instruct me to meditate for a few months before presiding over the clan sacrificial ceremony on June 16th,” Long Tianyu said.

“Preside over the clan sacrificial ceremony?” Lin Mengya glanced at him with puzzlement.

The clan sacrificial ceremony was significant. Last year, Long Tianyu just went to the ancestral temple to attend the ceremony as an ordinary prince.

Moreover, if there were no unexpected circumstances, the one presiding over the clan sacrificial ceremony had to be either the current Emperor or the Crown Prince.

Last time the Crown Prince presided over the sacrificial ceremony as the Emperor fell ill.

Unexpectedly, this time, Long Tianyu was appointed to preside over the sacrificial ceremony.

Lin Mengya smelled something fishy. Why did the Emperor, who was able to hide his love for Long Tianyu and let Long Tianyu grow up through toughening experiences in the past 20 years or so, do so this time?

“Did the Crown Prince take any unusual action?” As soon as Lin Mengya asked, Long Tianyu reached out and stroked her head.

He said with a helpless and doting smile, “Do you have so little confidence in me? My wife is formidable, but I’m a hard nut to crack. Now the most important thing for you is to nurse your health, otherwise, I have to wonder when I can be a father. Qinghan got a daughter, who is going to be a princess, a few days ago. We should work hard on that.”

“Long Qinghan got a daughter?” Lin Mengya was stunned with her mouth opened slightly.

Then, with a blush, she rolled her eyes at Long Tianyu in a coquettish manner, wondering where he learned to tease her with such words.

“Ahem, ahem, aren’t you supposed to talk business? You’d better flirt later. Now we’re in the Nation of Dongxia. Lass, we should be careful.” Qinghu’s untimely interruption saved Lin Mengya from embarrassment.

To be honest, she could deal with any situation. Even when the Emperor tried to choose another woman as Long Tianyu’s new wife, she could deal with it calmly.

However, she found it unacceptable to have a baby.

What was more, she was less than 20 years old in this space and time.

Although she was old enough to get pregnant in ancient times, she was not ready to be a mother.

Moreover, the daughter-in-law of the Tian Family had been at death’s door when in labor that day.

Although Lin Mengya was a doctor in modern times, she thought she should be well prepared before deciding to have a baby.

Having a baby was more difficult than it seemed to be.

“That’s right, that’s right. Stop quarreling with Hou Yuetian. After all, we’re in the Nation of Dongxia, and Qinghu said he could help us. Can you stop quarreling with him for my sake?” As Qinghu shifted the topic, Lin Mengya said prettily to Long Tianyu with a pitiful look, which was her killing strike.

As she expected, Long Tianyu, who had shown a displeased look just now, unconsciously nodded after being stunned for a while.

“Alright, then it’s settled. We’re going to reach Jiang City in a few days. The fleet needs a rest, and so do we,” Lin Mengya said.

Seeing that Long Tianyu had taken the bait, she smiled and felt her mood improved a lot.

Although she did not have much confidence in finding the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass in Jiang City, anyway they had arrived in the Nation of Dongxia. The closer she was to the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass, the more likely she was to survive.

She turned her head and looked out of the window. They were sailing downstream in the lake connecting the two countries.

After having a short conversation, they arrived in another country.

The customs of the Nation of Dongxia were similar to those of the Jin State.

Perhaps because of the particularly developed waterways, the residents here all looked exceptionally radiant.

The water in rivers and lakes was different from that in the ocean.

Compared with the Nation of Lintian where people were straightforward and unconstrained, the Nation of Dongxia seemed more like a water town south of the Yangtze River.

It also looked like Venice in modern times, but it was livelier and more vibrant and less peaceful.

Along the way, they encountered plenty of hawkers hawking on their boats.

Because they were in the Nation of Dongxia, Hou Yuetian’s boat was sailing in front of their ship to lead the way, which enabled them, who came from another country, to enjoy the beautiful scenery of a foreign land at will.

Even Qinghu quietened down and joined Lin Mengya in watching the scenery outside the window.

“It’s such a beautiful and peaceful place. Can you imagine that local people have just gone through an internal strife not long ago? But this place is like the surface of water stirred by a paddle. Although the water was roiled, it could return to its original state in a short time. After the ripples disappeared, the water is calm, as if nothing has happened,” Lin Mengya said.

In Dajin or the Nation of Lintian, she had seen local people more or less changed after going through political turmoils.

However, in the Nation of Dongxia, she could not tell local people had gone through an internal strife before.

She involuntarily wondered what kind of person the new king of the Nation of Dongxia was.

“Miss Qingge, do you like it here?” As Hou Yuetian asked, he walked slowly into the cabin from outside with a smile.

Then he greeted everyone in the cabin one by one, even including Long Tianyu, who had just had a fight with him.

After a polite greeting, he walked up to Lin Mengya and began to explain the local customs and practices of the Nation of Dongxia to her.

“Yes, of course I like it. I didn’t expect this place to be so beautiful,” Lin Mengya said and nodded in response.

Then she looked out of the window and saw that local residents built small, unsophisticated buildings on the water.

Perhaps they were not over luxurious with little modern aesthetic charm.

Nevertheless, the cottages built with bamboos and stones were beautiful in a pacifying way.

The vines recklessly growing on the mottled walls gave the dilapidated old cottages vitality.

There were steel gray stone arch bridges across the narrow waterways, and they had stood there for many years.

The local residents moving back and forth on the bridge were like figures in a painting.

They were insignificant, but indispensable and diversified.

At this moment, she wished she had a brush so that she could portray everything in front of her.

Such a harmonious scene appeased her, who was slightly anxious.

“That’s great. Miss Qingge, why don’t you make a long stay here if you get a chance? The people of our Nation of Dongxia are enthusiastic and curious, especially about someone as gentle and warmhearted as you,” Hou Yuetian said.

Gentle? Warmhearted?

Qinghu and Long Tianyu glanced at each other at the same time with an undisguised gloating look in their eyes.

Lin Mengya only pretended to be weak and pitiful in front of others.

But in their social circle, she was no less notorious than the two of them.

Long Tianyu couldn’t help but look at Hou Yuetian with regret. When his wife played her appalling tricks in front of Hou Yuetian, Hou Yuetian would probably be scared out of his wits.

“If I get a chance, I will,” Lin Mengya said politely, while glancing at the two of them with a subtle warning look in her eyes.

She had noticed their expressions when they heard Hou Yuetian praise her.

They did not have to show that look.

Although she didn’t like to be an over compassionate person, in essence, she could be considered a kind person, couldn’t she?

In some ways, that was indeed the case.

“That’s great. Miss Qingge, since you are looking for a medicinal material in the Nation of Dongxia, why don’t you stay here for a few more days? Compared with Dajin, the Nation of Dongxia is a better place for you to recuperate,” hearing that Miss Qingge liked it here, Hou Yuetian said excitedly.

He was overjoyed, thinking that his mother would definitely be pleased with such a smart girl.

Compared with those noble ladies, he preferred this girl, who was proficient in medical skill and very intelligent.

In fact, he had heard Miss Qingge’s words just now by accident.

She, who was able to deduce all this information at a few glances, must have a unique understanding of running a country.
