Chapter 596 Dangerous by Each Step

Lin Mengya spoke seriously, and Xiu listened carefully.

After pondering for a while, Xiu came back to her senses and looked at Lin Mengya with a confused expression.

“Do you mean that you want me to go back to help him?”

Lin Mengya nodded. What happened these days had made her realize the seriousness of the matter.

Whether it was the Candle Dragon Cult or the fight for the throne, everything was far from as simple as she had imagined.

At first, she thought that she was a chess player, but she didn’t expect that she had already become a chess piece on the chessboard.

The Lin family had been tied to the chessboard by her. In this case, she had no reason to implicate others to be regarded as a chess piece ​together with her.

“But I want to stay here to help you. Sister, you won’t mind me if I’m here, will you?”

Xiu looked at Lin Mengya nervously. It took her a lot of effort to learn from others that that man cared the most about this sister.

If that person found out that she didn’t help Lin Mengya, he might really hate her.

But now, Lin Mengya said that he might be in trouble.

It was hard for Xiu to make a choice between the two of them.

“Of course not. On the contrary, I think you’re a very capable person. However, your role here is really limited. Why don’t you go back and help him? If possible, may I ask you to bring him a letter for me?”

Xiu nodded desperately, as if she was afraid that Lin Mengya would regret her words the next moment.

Seeing that Xiu had been persuaded by her, Lin Mengya could not help but let out a sigh of relief.

Since she could figure out Xiu’s identity, others might also be able to.

However, according to the current situation, it seemed like the more help she could get, the more dangerous it would be.

In this way, she’d better make herself look less useful.

Perhaps, there would still be some time for a buffer in this way.

Lin Mengya didn’t know what to write in the letter to Xiaoyu.

He hadn’t sent a letter to her for a long time. Of course, if it weren’t for the critical situation, Xiaoyu would definitely not make her be so worried about him.

After thinking about it for a while, Lin Mengya could only write a few words in the letter.

“I’m alright now. Don’t worry about me. Take care.”

It was just a few simple sentences, but the meaning behind them was beyond words.

Xiu left quietly.

To the public, she was just claiming that Xiu was out looking for medicinal herbs.

On the other side, although the real Doctor Gu had come back, they still needed a large number of medicinal herbs.

Many people had joined the team in the search for herbs. Therefore, Xiu would not attract other people’s attention if she joined them.

The only thing that was inconvenient for Lin Mengya was that from today on, she would have to face Little Bean, who only knew how to eat and sleep alone.

Xiu’s uncle must have sent someone to follow them. Moreover, they had a unique way to contact each other before.

It wouldn’t take long for Xiu to set foot on her way home.

Lin Mengya held the little fellow in her arms and looked into the distance, lost in thought.

Recently, she always felt like she had no one to rely on whether in the Lin family or in Prince Yu’s Mansion.

It was a familiar place for her, but when she thought about it at this moment, she felt strange about it.

Lin Mengya furrowed her delicate brows subconsciously.

She did not notice that her eyes, which were full of worry, were filled with her gloom at this moment.

“If you don’t want Xiu to leave, you can still get her back now.”

Xiao Yixin’s gentle voice sounded behind Lin Mengya.

She turned around. The light blurred Lin Mengya’s facial features. However, her firm attitude did not change at all.

“Everyone has a suitable position. Xiu’s place is not here.”

Lin Mengya didn’t find Xiao Yixin annoying, nor did she like him.

Indeed, for her in the past, Xiao Yixin was a gentle brother. Even if he broke off their engagement, she had thought that their engagement was just a wishful idea between the parents of the Lin and the Xiao families.

However, for her now, Xiao Yixin was just a familiar stranger.

In addition, what Madam Wu had said before her death made Lin Mengya alert to these aristocratic families again.

She had never believed all the words of Madam Wu, but it was indeed a reminder for her.

She had to figure out the key that the Candle Dragon Cult had chosen to take action in Yun State.

“That’s right. What about your position? And what about mine?”

The latter half of her sentence was more like talking to herself.

Xiao Yixin lowered his head and looked at his hands in confusion.

He had thought that he had regained his responsibilities. However, when he saw that Lin Mengya and his sister-in-law were besieged, his mind seemed to have changed again.

If one day, the people he tried his best to protect would turn against him because of other things, would he feel betrayed again?

The doubts that had previously been suppressed in his heart once again surged up.

“I don’t know either, but the only thing I’m clear about is that the position of a person is not destined by Heaven, nor is it given by someone else. It’s our own choice.”

That was right. Lin Mengya had already known that no matter if it was in the past or in the future, everything she had experienced was her own choice.

But now, she was a little shaken by the words of Madam Wu.

Did she really make the right choice?

If what Madam Wu said was true, then what should she do to continue her future life?

Lin Mengya was a little confused. Unconsciously, she tightened her grip on the little guy in her arms.

The little guy, who felt pain because of the strength, instantly burst out into tears.

Lin Mengya’s train of thought was interrupted, and she immediately checked on the little guy’s condition.

In any case, she had to verify the authenticity of Madam Wu’s words.

At least, she couldn’t be used by others in such an unclear way.

Without Xiu by her side, there was nothing different about Lin Mengya’s life except for being a little busy.

Long Tianyu still often asked people to send her some letters.

It was just that he hadn’t stood by the shore to meet her for a few days.

Once again, the isolated camp quieted down.

The atmosphere gradually became less oppressive. However, no one dared to go against Lin Mengya again.

In other words, they had all realized that on that day when they chose the side, they had already cut off the possibility of Lin Mengya being close to them.

Therefore, when they got used to Lin Mengya’s indifference again, their way of getting along with each other was fixed.

If they did not violate each other, there would be less friction between them.

This was also good. Lin Mengya was also happy to be like this.

The little guy, who was temporarily adopted by her, grew up very quickly. In addition to the help of the sister-in-law of the Xiao family and Sister Zhu, Baili Rui and Xiao Yixin were the ones who took care of her the most.

Every day, she could see these two men being tortured by Little Bean, frowning tightly, and shouting for mercy.

This also made Lin Mengya relax a lot.

The situation of all the children was normal. According to Lin Mengya’s speculation, as long as these children grew safely for a year, the Venomous Armored Insects’ eggs, which had no chance to hatch, would be integrated with the children’s bodies.

Furthermore, from the music score for green stringed instrument, Lin Mengya got another piece of top-secret information.

In fact, Venomous Armored Insects were not used to punish criminals in the past.

Instead, it was a way to protect newborns. Many ancient races would plant their eggs into a baby’s body after the child was born.

On the one hand, they could enhance the ability of the newborn to resist poison. On the other hand, this kind of insect egg could actually protect the child’s heart and lungs.

As for that horrifying reproduction method, it could also be regarded as a kind of memorial to those dead newborns.

Only this type of function, for some reason, gradually faded away in the process of inheritance.

On the contrary, what remained were the terrifying Venomous Armored Insects.

However, since that was the case, the doctor who insisted on burying the babies might only know about the reproduction of Armored Venomous Insects and not know the real use of the insect eggs.

If that was the case, then the person who planted the insect eggs in children might not be that stupid.

Everything still remained a mystery. It seemed that she had to investigate them one by one in order to uncover the final truth.

“Your Highness, His Highness has come to pick you up.”

Outside the tent, Li Jia spoke respectfully.

Lin Mengya stopped thinking about these things. Since the real doctor had come back, more and more people had given up the idea of burying the children.

From Long Tianyu’s letter, Lin Mengya learned that the real Doctor Gu, Gu Die, always covered his men’s mistakes and could not distinguish right from wrong. However, the good news was that after he learned that his junior fellow apprentice was going to bury the innocent babies alive, he had taken the initiative to stop his junior fellow apprentice and apologized to Long Tianyu.

In this regard, Lin Mengya learned the differences between these two doctors.

In that case, there was no need to keep using this temporary isolated camp anymore.

However, in order to ensure the safety of the children, Long Tianyu was tough and asked the Gu brothers not to get close to the campsite.

It seemed that there was an argument again.

However, Long Tianyu didn’t care about it. Days had passed safely. The news saying the children were the source had also disappeared.

It was also time to let mothers and children be reunited with their families.

Therefore, Long Tianyu came to pick up his princess as soon as possible.

However, when he was full of expectation, he saw Lin Mengya. She came to him in plain clothes, with a baby in her arms and a sweet smile on her face.

“This...”

The prince, who missed his princess so much, was stunned to see a little guy on his princess’s chest.

A look of surprise flashed across Prince Yu’s face. Soon, he regained his composure.

“I adopted this child. It’s a little complicated. I’ll explain it to you later.”

Lin Mengya smiled and whispered in Long Tianyu’s ear.

In fact, she had deliberately concealed the existence of Little Bean. It was also because she had not wanted to adopt this child before.
