Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 193 Who Won?

“Nothing. Just something unimportant.”

Lin Mengya thought about it and decided to tell him after finding a cure for him.

If he resolutely refused to take the medicine, she would pour the medicine into his mouth.

“How is it going in Sanjue Hall?”

Lin Mengya thought twice before she began to ask about Sanjue Hall.

It was the last place where she could protect herself after all.

“Yunzhu is clever. She has gathered many people together, but we need to weed out some people.”

Yunzhu was a better manager than Qinghu.

However, Qinghu had kung fu powerful enough to hold those vagabonds.

Everyone thought of Yunzhu, who had a mask on her face, as an old woman.

Qinghu had to sit inside the room. He felt extremely bored.

“Right. Only the top of the top can join us.”

Lin Mengya picked up the tea and took a sip.

“Oh, little girl, you won’t support them for free after you have a group of people, will you? They must earn money by themselves. Why not start the killing business?”

Lin Mengya rolled her eyes at Qinghu. “He wants to build up another Peach Blossom Dock?”

“Sanjue Hall is seemingly a drugstore. Some of them can go somewhere else to gather herbs if they are tired of society. However, I want Sanjue Hall to be a collecting and distributing center of information on the sly.”

Lin Mengya knew clearly that information was the most significant thing in the so-called Jianghu.

To get revenge, pay a debt of gratitude, or wander in society, one had to control the latest news first.

She had studied why people got informed so late. It was because the transport in ancient times had not been as advanced as in modern times.

Therefore, as long as she got new information faster than anyone else, she would be ahead of them.

Making it an information center sounded like a good choice.

“Okay, that’s settled.”

Qinghu liked that idea. Lin Mengya was clever. She would cover it up with the drugstore so that no one would doubt it.

Besides, she was excellent at making poison. She would become famous in the society soon.

The drugstore needed many special detoxifying herbs. Thus, it was reasonable that her people would stay in different places for the herbs.

“Okay.”

Lin Mengya nodded. The wound on her hand was healing fast.

That stupid woman, Jiang Ruqin, managed all these affairs in the next few days.

Without her, Lin Mengya would have had no time to heal her wound.

Jiang Ruqin struggled to manage the household for only three days. Then, she went to Liuxin Courtyard to admit her mistakes.

However, Lin Mengya made up an excuse about not feeling good and refused to open the door.

Recently, Prince Yu’s Mansion had been a complete mess.

Even having three meals a day had become difficult.

Now, only Liuxin Courtyard was still the same. Qinwu Courtyard and Art Courtyard had run out of food.

Concubine De frowned at the cold dishes on the table. Some anger could be seen in her eyes.

“You took charge of the whole family, yet you are making me eat those things? Do you think I am a vegetarian?”

Jiang Ruqin immediately knelt down and grumbled.

“Aunt, it’s Lin Mengya’s fault. Recently, I’ve had no money to buy meat. I have to make everyone cook vegetables like cucumbers or radishes.”

As she spoke about this, Jiang Ruqin got really upset.

She hadn’t known that the money for meat and vegetables was paid every few days.

Last time, the servants’ salaries had all been paid in time.

However, this time, Lin Mengya had unkindly not paid her.

“Didn’t you tell me that you have all the keys in your hands? Where is the money?”

Concubine De put down the chopsticks forcefully and glared at her.

She had thought that letting Jiang Ruqin take Lin Mengya’s place would be bad for Lin Mengya.

However, she had never imagined that she would take a beating herself.

“Lin Mengya told me that there was no money in the treasury. However, someone told me that she actually moved the money into her private coffer. I was very angry, but I tried to get the money back. She claimed that the money was her dowry and that no one had the right to take it away.”

Jiang Ruqin spoke in a pathetic manner. That was what Liu’er had taught her.

Jiang Ruqin had wanted to complain to Concubine De, but Liu’er had stopped her.

She hadn’t said anything until now, which made Concubine De even angrier.

Jiang Ruqin winked at Liu’er with praise in her eyes.

Now, Lin Mengya would be in trouble.

Lin Mengya was not Concubine De’s match.

“What did you say? How absurd she is! Let’s go to her place. Let me see what gave her the courage to take our money!”

Concubine De rose to her full height. Then, she went to Liuxin Courtyard with a group of servants.

Upon arriving, they saw servants out there holding plates of food for Liuxin Courtyard.

None of them had enjoyed their food in three days. When they smelled the scent of delicious food, they couldn’t help swallowing hard.

“She’s such an evil daughter-in-law. How could she enjoy delicious food herself while letting Aunt eat that kind of terrible food!”

Jiang Ruqin provoked Concubine De by ear. Concubine De was so provoked that she pulled a long face.

“Concubine De has arrived—”

The eunuch headed up to announce her arrival.

However, probably because he hadn’t been eating well recently, his announcement sounded feeble.

“Greetings, mother.”

Lin Mengya greeted her as usual. She did not look like a duck in a thunderstorm. While looking at her, Jiang Ruqin ground her teeth in anger.

“Are you the eldest daughter of the Lin family? Very good. Tell me, you moved all the money of our mansion into your private coffer, didn’t you?”

There was no foreshadowing. Concubine De got straight to the point. Maybe it was because she was really irritated.

Lin Mengya knelt in front of Concubine De and answered in a lovely manner.

“You’re right. The Prince told me to move it into my coffer because the treasury was a little old.”

Concubine De and Jiang Ruqin hadn’t expected that Lin Mengya would admit it so fast.

Concubine De threw a cold look at Lin Mengya and spoke.

“It’s good that you admit it. Now, give me the money.”

Concubine De looked down at Lin Mengya and ordered her in a cold tone.

However, Lin Mengya smiled and refused directly.

“Your Highness, you might have forgotten what you told me. The other day, you told me that, because the treasury matters a lot, I can give out money only when your seal and the Prince’s seal show up at the same time. I’ve dedicated myself to keeping the money. I would dare not forget what you told me. If you insist on making me take out the money, please show me the seal and I will follow your order.”

Lin Mengya’s words managed to leave Concubine De speechless.

Concubine De remembered really saying that.

However, she hadn’t expected that Lin Mengya would use it to fight back.

“Fine, I insist. Jingyue, bring back my seal.”

Jingyue, who was in a dilemma, spoke in her ear for a while.

“What did you say?”

Concubine De frowned at Jingyue in astonishment.

“Your Highness, I have not seen it since we got out of the Palace.”

Suddenly, Concubine De’s expression changed.

Without the seal, it would look like she was the one not keeping faith if she forced Lin Mengya to take out the money.

Now, she felt a little contrite. It was awkward to say such a thing in public.

“You—you did well. I know what I said. Qin’er, give the keys and account books back to your Cousin-In-Law.”

Everything had changed now.

No one had expected that the Princess would take her power back from Jiang Ruqin in a few days.

“Aunt, I—”

It was okay to give the power back under the table.

However, everyone was watching them now. Jiang Ruqin felt awkward.

“I said, give them back to your Cousin-In-Law. Didn’t I make myself clear?”

Jiang Ruqin was surprised that Concubine De would attack her.

She glared at Lin Mengya, her big eyes full of hatred, as if she wanted to swallow her.

“Okay. Liu’er, give those things back to my Cousin-In-Law.”

Her words showed that she was outraged.

“Cousin-In-Law, take good care of them. Be careful.”

Baishao came to take them back. Everyone out there knew clearly that Jiang Ruqin had been defeated completely at this fight.

However, Lin Mengya remained calm and took what was in Baishao’s hands before speaking sincerely.

“It’s difficult to manage a household. It is also difficult to be the Master. I know that I am still young and naive now. Please take them back, mother.”

Lin Mengya’s refusal surprised everyone.

However, Concubine De understood what it meant. This was Lin Mengya’s protest.

She had taken back the power of managing a household.

She hadn’t discussed it with Lin Mengya. Instead, she had ignored her feelings.

Thus, she was showing her anger.

She had dared refuse because she knew there was no reliable person to manage the household for Concubine De.

Concubine De was stuck in the middle, but Lin Mengya was resolute.

“Why must you refuse, little girl?”

Although she felt great hatred for Lin Mengya,

she still softened her face.

Then, she held Lin Mengya up with her hands and looked at her with a friendly expression.

“We are a family. I told Qin’er to manage the household because I wanted her to help you in the future. However, she was so careless that she caused us big trouble. You are her Cousin-In-Law. You should tolerate her.”

Everyone knew that Concubine De had been forced to be friendly.

Lin Mengya was not a woman who could be bullied easily. If someone wronged her, she would fight back.

However, if she carried on now, Concubine De would lose her patience.

Therefore, Lin Mengya stood up with the help of Concubine De and smiled tenderly.

“Mother, I know. After all, Miss Jiang is our relative. I don’t blame her. Please don’t worry, mother.”
