Chapter 611 Joint Memorial

“Do you think there’s more to it than that?”

Noticing the confusion in her eyes, Long Tianyu reached out and pulled her to his side.

Lin Mengya nodded. Her eyes were glittering as she was thinking about the vital interest in it quickly.

From the conversation between Gu Xing and Gu Die, she could more or less guess their identities.

Moreover, it seemed that Mr. Baili was not willing to talk too much about it. He just told her that their master was not simple.

In this way, Gu Xing must have wanted something really great since he had risked offending his sect and plotting against his senior sister.

“Yes, Gu Die must have a good pedigree. If Gu Xing just wanted to play a badger game with you, he wouldn’t have risked breaking with his senior sister by using her as bait. The only explanation is that Gu Die had to be involved in what he wanted to do.”

Long Tianyu secretly raised his eyebrows and looked at his princess with an unfathomable look.

In the past, he didn’t pay special attention to this aspect of her. But now, he found that she seemed to know a lot.

“The education of the Lin family is really extraordinary.”

Although Long Tianyu had known that she was different from common noble young ladies, he couldn’t help but feel a little strange that she could be so bright.

“Uh—it’s not the time to discuss this kind of thing. I’d better go out and have a look to see if there are any other clues.”

Lin Mengya managed to maintain the smile on her face and dashed out of Long Tianyu’s tent.

This guy was as sharp as the Shen Nung radar in her mind when he should not be, but when he should be sensitive, he was dull.

Lin Mengya could not help but feel a little uneasy.

If Long Tianyu found out about her biggest secret, would everything in front of her be changed?

She didn’t want to guess, because this was the only problem that she had no confidence in.

Seeing Lin Mengya leave in a panic, Long Tianyu just thought that his princess had become shy, which was rare for her.

He couldn’t help but curl his light lips into a smile.

It seemed that this was a good way to tease his seemingly sensible but shy wife.

After a smile, Long Tianyu regained his indifference and self-restraint.

In this life, all his weakness and tenderness would only be given to that woman.

“Your Highness, after Gu Die returned, she quarreled with Gu Xing.”

In the blink of an eye, Ling Ye once again appeared in front of Long Tianyu mysteriously.

Something cold flickered in Long Tianyu’s eyes. At the moment, he was like an emotionless machine.

“Continue to keep an eye on them. By the way, find a suitable reason to put Liu Yun in.”

Originally, Gu Xing and Liu Yun were imprisoned separately. That was why Gu Die had been able to “easily” find Gu Xing’s location.

It was the easiest to blurt out one’s secret in anger.

He didn’t like being schemed against, but he detested people trying to ruin his relationship with Lin Mengya.

“Yes, and His Majesty has sent a secret edict.”

Looking at the bright yellow envelope in Ling Ye’s hands, Long Tianyu narrowed his brows tightly.

On more than one occasion, he had hinted to his father not to get Lin Mengya involved.

But it seemed that it didn’t work very well.

Long Tianyu unfolded the letter and quickly read through the words written on it.

He frowned more and more tightly. In the end, his calm black eyes were stained with deep helplessness and pain for some unknown reason.

“Let’s go.”

There was a burst of anger in his tone. If the person in front of him were not a shadow guard who grew up with him, he would definitely do something to him to vent his anger.

Their black clothes fluttered as they moved, making them ghost-like in the dark night.

They used supreme flying skills and jumped out of the camp in a short moment.

“Greetings, Your Highness.”

Five black shadows gathered in the dark night.

They all knelt down in front of Long Tianyu, not even daring to raise their heads.

“What’s the matter?”

Long Tianyu’s voice was icy-cold in the dark night.

Before they could reply, the five of them felt a chill over their spines.

“According to His Majesty’s order, Prince Yu, please bring Gu Die back to the capital city.”

Finally, the leader of the five men gritted his teeth and spoke to Long Tianyu under the pressure.

In an instant, the air seemed to be condensed by the coldness emitted by Long Tianyu.

“What if I say no?”

There was an eerie silence.

Even the men in black seemed to be able to hear the cold sweat flow down their foreheads.

Long Tianyu’s eyes turned cold all of a sudden. He held the sharp knife at his waist with his slender fingers.

It seemed that as long as those people dared to say another word, he would immediately make them disappear in front of him.

“Please forgive us, Your Highness. I’m just following an order. Even if you kill us, there will still be other people doing this. Please spare us, Your Highness.”

His words made Long Tianyu’s murderous intent increase a lot in an instant.

The snow-white blade was unsheathed. Instantly, the five people only felt a chill on their necks, but they didn’t know that they had a close shave.

“Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you for sparing us.”

Every one of them had a strand of black hair that was falling down near their temples.

Fortunately, their heads were still on their necks.

Suddenly, they all broke out in a cold sweat on their backs.

It wasn’t that Long Tianyu didn’t dare to kill them. Perhaps he just found it troublesome.

“Go back and tell my father that if I bring her back, I will send her directly to his imperial harem.”

“Well...” The five men looked at each other with bitter smiles. They didn’t want to be secretly executed by the furious emperor as soon as they escaped from Long Tianyu’s sword.

“Your Highness, I venture to remind you. In fact, His Majesty does it for your own good. Besides, it’s just a woman...”

The subordinate must have plucked up the courage to say this at that time.

However, Long Tianyu’s eyes were as sharp as a knife, and his voice died away.

“If you want to live, stay here and don’t do anything. Also, don’t get close to my princess.”

In the eyes of outsiders, Long Tianyu was like a lonely leader wolf.

But everyone forgot that although the leader wolf was lonely, he was incomparably proud.

Therefore, anyone who tried to touch the person under his protection would be torn apart by his sharp teeth and claws.

As his father, the emperor should know this better than anyone else.

The five people were a little hesitant, but they had to give in for the time being.

It didn’t matter if they died. Nevertheless, if they delayed the emperor’s important event, they would commit a crime serious enough to exterminate their whole families.

Seeing that the warning was effective, Long Tianyu had no patience to continue to talk about this kind of problem with them.

The leader of the men in black was a clever person.

He carefully detected that the devil in front of him seemed to have calmed down, so he immediately changed the topic.

“There’s one more thing. The people sent by Crown Prince are already on the way. They will arrive in Yun State in a few days. His Majesty suggests that you avoid them.”

The situation in Yun State had settled down. Even a fool knew that the Crown Prince must have sent people here to seize the credit.

However, Long Tianyu did not care about the bubble reputation. He just had no idea why his father asked him to avoid them now that he had already made up his mind to eradicate the empress’ party.

There must be some changes.

“Is there any unusual movement in the imperial court?”

After pondering for a while, Long Tianyu already knew the crux of the matter.

The leader did not dare to delay but immediately reported all he knew to Long Tianyu.

“In recent days, the empress’ parents’ family, the Shangguan Family, together with the Feng Family, the Xu Family, and other ministers jointly submitted a memorial to the throne, reporting that someone privately took possession of army provisions and engaged in embezzlement. They did not name anyone, but the charges all targeted the Lin Family. However, the emperor took the memorial on the pretext of having no solid evidence. There was already a great disturbance in the imperial court because of this matter. But don’t worry, Your Highness, the Lin Family is not in trouble, and Lin Nansheng is safe and sound. With the protection of the Yue Family and the Xiao Family, temporarily, no one dares to lay a finger on Princess’s parents’ family.”

“They attacked the Lin Family so soon?”

Although it was a little faster than he imagined, it was also within his expectations.

Although the Crown Prince was impatient, the empress was a vicious person.

Now, she joined forces with several ministers to submit the memorial. She must have already had evidence that was harmful to the Lin Family.

It was no wonder that the Crown Prince dared to send people to snatch the credit.

If the Lin Family collapsed, he would lose more than half of his overt power in the imperial court.

This kind of overt scheme was ruthless and merciless.

“I see. You can leave now. If there’s any change in the Crown Prince’s men, report it to me in time.”

The five men did not dare to delay. After a moment, they followed the path and went to keep watch on the Crown Prince’s men.

As the night gradually faded away, Long Tianyu and his shadow guard Ling Ye were gradually exposed in the wilderness at dawn.

“I’m afraid you won’t be able to hide this matter from Princess, Your Highness.”

Ling Ye rarely spoke, and he didn’t care about anything.

However, ever since he returned from the Nation of Lintian, he seemed to have acknowledged Lin Mengya as his master.

Although he was just a shadow, serving as a shield that could die for Long Tianyu at any time, in Long Tianyu’s growth, he was the first and only friend that Long Tianyu could trust completely.

“Well, how could I not know? It’s just that the girl looks calm on the surface, but deep inside, she cares about the Lin Family the most. If she knew it, she would lose her mind. My father is threatening me with this.”

A trace of fatigue appeared on Long Tianyu’s face.

It was not because he had been busy overnight, but because he was stuck between his father and Mengya. It was hard for him to make a choice.

“Perhaps, as His Majesty said, he will no longer make things difficult for you if you do what he says with Princess.”

Long Tianyu looked at Ling Ye as if he wanted to say something. He did want to eat his cake and have it.

Nevertheless, if he listened to his father, he might have to sacrifice Lin Mengya.

He could abandon the throne, but he could not ignore the kinship between father and son. Yet, if he lost Lin Mengya, he would no longer have any warmth in his life.

He would feel as if he had fallen into a harsh winter and suffered loneliness and storms. Even if he ruled the world, he was afraid that he would only be depressed and regretful all day long.
