Chapter 891 Late Night Talk

“Our Lin Family was very prestigious before His Majesty. Besides, Sir and Madam are both influential figures in the Capital City. Therefore, even if the Empress doesn’t like Madam, she doesn’t dare to do anything to her easily. Until one day, the Empress summoned Madam to the palace alone. Since then, the Lin Family was no longer peaceful.”

In Mrs. Tian’s memory, the Lin Family was glorious and also accompanied by countless dangers at that time.

The title of Marquis Zhennan was fought by her father in countless wars. Therefore, even if there were some people in the court who were not happy with them, they did not dare to do anything to the Lin Family openly.

But since her mother was summoned by the Empress alone, her father’s political opponents in the court started to make trouble.

Fortunately, His Majesty was still protecting his father in public at that time. Even if her father was restrained by factors of various types, it was not too difficult for him.

“After that, Duke won a battle again. Those people stopped and didn’t dare to say anything. But there were many accidents happening one after another in our mansion. It was also at that time that someone poisoned the young master’s wet nurse. But Madam and I both knew she died for the young master.”

Tears welled up in Mrs. Tian’s eyes.

She and Lin Nansheng’s wet nurse came to the mansion together, and they took turns to nurse the young master.

But the poor woman’s child died before she came to the mansion.

Madam took pity on her, so she gave her a double salary.

And she also stayed in Lin’s Mansion because she was hardworking and loyal.

Unexpectedly, one night, when she woke up as usual to check on the young master, she saw that girl was bleeding heavily.

She quickly found the doctor, but it was too late.

However, she still held the young master tightly in her arms and protected him from any harm even before she died.

It was also because of this incident that Madam and she realized that someone wanted to harm the young master.

“Normally, my parents would never allow such a thing to happen unless they didn’t know who this person was, and they couldn’t fight back for the time being.”

Lin Mengya knew very well about her parents’ feelings for them. Her mother had risked her life for them, and her father could also give up everything for them.

Although they were prominent, they were just the most ordinary parents.

No parents would watch their own children die without any resistance.

Even if the people they faced were far beyond their abilities to deal with.

“That’s right. From then on, Duke was extremely busy. He was busy with something even before you were born. Although the Madam was staying at home, she did almost everything in person. We were very careful. Luckily, nothing happened to you and the young master. However, a few days before you were born, Madam was worried all day long. In the end, she left everyone behind, including the guards Duke arranged for her. When she came back, she seemed to have unloaded all the responsibilities. Then she told me a lot of strange things, saying that she would entrust your brother and you to me. She also used a method that would not hurt me and made me your wet nurse once again because she said that she didn’t trust anyone except me.”

No one had ever told her about this in detail.

However, she could deduce a lot of things from the description of Mrs. Tian.

At that time, her father must have been under the pressure from both the Emperor and the Empress.

He must have been busy asking his colleagues for help.

It must have been from that time that the relationship between her father and His Majesty went sour.

However, because of her mother’s death, all the forces were no longer eager to take action. And it seemed that the situation was eased.

Unexpectedly, it was stirred up again because of her after more than ten years.

“Did my mother tell you who wanted to hurt my brother and me?”

Lin Mengya already had an answer in her mind, but she just wanted Mrs. Tian to confirm it.

“I’ve asked Madam before, but she didn’t say it clearly. But when she was dying, she told me to be careful of the royal family. She asked me to watch you for the rest of my life and never get involved with the royal family if it was possible.”

Mrs. Tian’s face was full of bitterness. She must have felt guilty because she had failed to keep her promise to her master.

But Lin Mengya stared at Mrs. Tian’s face, and the doubt in her eyes gradually turned into certainty.

“Nanny Tian, do you know someone named Fanggu?”

In the Nation of Lintian, she met Fanggu, an old lady who had served her mother.

But she died in the hands of the enemy because of her carelessness.

She had never forgotten and let go of anyone who had hurt the people she cared about.

Mrs. Tian was shocked. She managed to maintain the composure on her face, but it was enough for Lin Mengya to confirm her guess.

“Miss... Miss, how did you know about Fanggu? Are... are they okay?”

Sighing slightly, Lin Mengya lowered her eyes.

How could she say that Fanggu died for her?

After thinking for a long time, she said, “I met Fanggu in Lintian, but after that, she was killed for no reason to protect me. I think if my mother were here, she would definitely protect the people around her.”

In Lin Mengya’s heart, she felt deeply sorry for Fanggu.

When her mother left the palace of Lintian, she must have arranged everything properly for her people.

Just like when she was determined to find the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass, she also arranged a way out for her family.

If she hadn’t entered the casino by mistake and didn’t ask about her mother, maybe Fanggu would still have been the happy boss of her casino.

“Alas, I don’t know where the old friends were. Miss, you don’t have to blame yourself. In fact, I found Tian Ning’s father and got married just after I was sent out of the palace. I didn’t tell anyone who I was. If it weren’t for the famine in our village, I wouldn’t have to go to the princess with Ning. It’s our destiny. Our lives were born for the princess. If one day we die for the princess, it is a worthy death. After all, without the princess, we would have died long ago.”

Since Lin Mengya had guessed it, Mrs. Tian no longer hid anything.

In fact, Lin Mengya also accidentally remembered that Mrs. Tian told her once she didn’t know any words.

However, Mrs. Tian’s casual speeches were so refined that it was not something that an ordinary peasant woman could do.

Moreover, if Mrs. Tian was really that simple, it would be impossible for her to mediate for three years under the influence of Shangguan Qing and also lay down a secret route, which was not completely blocked by Shangguan Qing, for her and her elder brother in the mansion.

Now she realized that Mrs. Tian was not a simple person.

Lin Mengya seldom had a chance to listen to her mother’s people talking about her past.

Although she was very tired, her mind was getting more and more active.

In the end, Baiji had even fallen into a deep sleep in the corner.

She and Mrs. Tian were still talking about the past.

There was a reason why her mother left the palace, and even her trusted maids did not know why.

But Mrs. Tian mentioned that this secret had something with the royal family of the Nation of Lintian.

Actually, her mother left the palace to look for something.

Her uncle had also said that the Zuo Family had a fate that they were not able to escape.

Therefore, Lin Mengya thought that her mother must have left the Nation of Lintian to find a way to get rid of the curse.

But later, she probably didn’t find it, or something unexpected happened. So, she became Marquis Zhennan’s wife and didn’t return to her homeland for the rest of her life.

There were some things that Lin Mengya had made clear with the help of Mrs. Tian.

For example, how her mother and her father met, and how they were secretly tortured by those people.

All these things made the image of the mother in Lin Mengya’s heart become clearer and more natural.

Her mother was not the saint she had imagined before. She was also an ordinary woman who could sacrifice herself for love and her children.

Nothing would change her image when she turned from a god to a human.

On the contrary, Lin Mengya felt that her mother was closer to her.

Moreover, she finally understood why so many people said that she looked like her mother.

Not only in appearance, but also in character.

There were some things that were really magical. They didn’t live together, and she was even forced to live in another space.

Even so, there were some inheritances that still followed in the blood, engraving them into her bones, leaving imprints in the depths of her soul.

“Now there is only one thing I don’t get it. With my mother’s medical skills, how could she not have the antidote to the poison? They all said that my mother was willing to die, but you also said that she loved us very much and my father as well. In this case, how could she be so cruel to abandon us?”

Even the ants still clung to life. Besides, her mother had already noticed that someone wanted to hurt her children. How could she choose to die and push her children into the pit?

A trace of hatred suddenly appeared on Mrs. Tian’s face, and there was a hint of coldness in her eyes.

“Hum, we’d better ask Madam Qing about this. At that time, she fell in love with Duke and tried her best to get close to Madam. However, Madam had already recognized her, so she was always on guard against her. But one day, Madam Qing took a letter to Madam. Others might not know, but I knew it clearly. It was this letter that forced Madam to die. Madam Qing and the Empress were the ones who forced her to drink the poison!”

Lin Mengya clenched her hands into fists, and her face darkened.

Sure enough! But the content of this letter was really odd. It forced her mother to die to protect her children.

It seemed that she had to find it out.

“Empress, Shangguan Qing, hum, just wait and see!”
