Chapter 744 Prepare in Advance

The sudden appearance of Qian Hua was just a minor blip.

But when Long Tianyu appeared in front of the inn with Lin Mengya sleeping in his arms, Qinghu and Hou Yuetian were a little surprised.

“What’s wrong? Did she have a seizure again?” As Qinghu asked, he came forward and looked anxiously at the woman in Long Tianyu’s arms.

He wanted to take Lin Mengya from Long Tianyu, but Long Tianyu dodged him softly.

“She’s fine, but was just tired out and fell asleep. We don’t need to go to the island in the middle of the lake. I’ve received definite information that the medicinal material can only be found on the snow mountain Qijue Peak.” After finishing speaking, Long Tianyu carried Lin Mengya back to her room in the inn.

Both Qinghu and Hou Yuetian watched his back in surprise.

“Is, is it true?” Hou Yuetian asked doubtfully.

After all, it was difficult to go to the island in the middle of the lake outside Jiang City even with the permission of the governors, let alone to look for the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass there.

Now Liu Yu claimed that his men had found out about the actual situation on the island. Hou Yuetian couldn’t help wondering if it was just a bluff.

Frowning slightly, Hou Yuetian thought that in the current situation, they should put Miss Qingge’s health first, shouldn’t they?

“We don’t have to go. Since he said so, there is a definite conclusion. He considers nothing around the world is more important than her.” As Qinghu said, he reached out his slender arm to stop Hou Yuetian.

Perhaps no one other than Qinghu in the world could see clearly how well Long Tianyu treated Lin Mengya.

Most of the time, Long Tianyu was silent with a cold face.

But anything related to her could instantly turn him from a big iceberg into boiling lava.

If Long Tianyu hadn’t been so devoted to her, Qinghu would have tried all he could to take her away from him.

However, no one in the world could attach the most importance to Lin Mengya as Long Tianyu did.

Learning the news Long Tianyu brought, they began to prepare for climbing the snow mountain.

It was not easy to climb the Qijue Peak. Although Qinghu was well-prepared, Lin Mengya still could not put her mind at ease and repeatedly urged Qinghu to check the luggage.

“Cold-proof clothes, climbing ropes, tinder, some solid food which won’t rot easily, and some medicine for curing frostbite which is the most important, are all necessities. Qinghu, are you sure you have them all?” This was the fifteenth time Lin Mengya, who sat in her wheelchair, had given earnest exhortations.

Even Qinghu, who was usually patient, seemed to have run out of patience.

He pulled a long face as he answered her. “Lass, since when did you become a housekeeper? We’ve prepared everything we need. Don’t worry. Just reserve your strength for seeking the medicinal material.”

Qinghu had never been nagged by anyone like this as far as he could remember.

After quite a while, seeing Long Tianyu enter the room, he immediately came up to Long Tianyu as if he had seen his savior.

He said, “Look at your wife. She’s as garrulous as an old lady.”

Hearing herself described as an old lady, Lin Mengya was composed, but just threw the empty cup expressionlessly.

“Dong”

“Ouch!”

Hearing Qinghu hit by the cup and scream, Lin Mengya lower her head with satisfaction and continued checking the list in her hand.

Humph, Qinghu, who described her as an old lady, was actually older than her.

Knowing that he was in the wrong, Qinghu did not dare to stay any longer and immediately disappeared from Lin Mengya’s sight.

Long Tianyu, who was used to the way they got along with each other, closed the door casually with a smile.

“Ya’er, did you sleep well? Do you feel any uncomfortable?” He asked.

Lin Mengya raised her head and showed him an embarrassed smile.

She didn’t know what had happened. Since she fell asleep accidentally and was carried back by him yesterday, she had been treated as a baby by him again.

Long Tianyu held her in his arms wherever they went.

Although he was so strong that he could carry her easily, she was an adult after all.

She moved with difficulty at the moment, but she felt ashamed to be carried by him all the time.

Moreover, Hou Yuetian and the others were around most of the time.

Every time, she noticed a strange look in the eyes of Hou Yuetian and the two governors.

However, Qinghu, who was always on her side, somehow ‘betrayed’ her this time.

Alas, she was so unlucky!

“I’m fine. You don’t have to stay by my side all the time. I saw that Lin Kui has brought back a lot of government affairs these days. Why don’t you provide assistance at the foot of a mountain when we climb the snow mountain?” Lin Mengya suggested.

Nowadays, Long Tianyu enjoyed broad support in the court.

What was more, he had military merits and did a great job in both handling internal affairs and foreign policy-making.

Even without the help of the Lin Family, he still gained lots of support.

Since the day Long Tianyu married her, she had always known that he didn’t attach great importance to her status.

But now, she couldn’t help him at all, and became his burden instead, which made her feel a little sorry.

“It’s okay.” As he said, he reached out to pull her into his embrace habitually and stroked her soft long hair with a flash of gloom in his eyes.

He had once assigned Ling Ye a mission.

Now Ling Ye had made some progress. It wouldn’t take long for him to be able to give Lin Mengya full protection even without his father’s men.

He did not care about how formidable the Candle Dragon Cult was. As long as they dared to hurt her, he would definitely exterminate them!

In recent days, his men had been investigating into the disappearance of Lin Muzhi and Lin Nansheng.

It seemed to have something to do with the Candle Dragon Cult.

He didn’t know if Lin Mengya could remove the poison in her body. If she succeeded, he could set his mind at ease and get her father and brother back in secret.

He considered her the most important after all.

“You are not in the Capital City all the time, and it will be discovered sooner or later. Also, since we cooperate with Shangguan Hui to put on this show, we should assure her that it will work,” Lin Mengya rubbed her aching eyes in Long Tianyu’s arms, and said.

Shangguan Hui was clever enough to understand what Lin Mengya meant, and certainly had expressed an appropriate desire for the position of Princess Yu.

She probably had made up a story to cover up her association with Lin Mengya.

Now that she was “casting covetous eyes” on the position of Princess Yu, others could do nothing about it in a short time.

However, if the Emperor turned her trick to his own use, she would be dumbfounded.

“Qinghan is capable, and Shangguan Hui is not stupid. She came to our mansion to drink tea and take care of flowers from time to time. Considering my father’s vigilance against her, she visited the Empress from time to time to get close to the Empress. At present, she is probably the most popular lady in the Capital City,” Long Tianyu rarely said of a woman like this.

On one hand, it was because Shangguan Hui was so smart that she would not cause him trouble and could bail him out.

On the other hand, Shangguan Hui, who would be their sister-in-law sooner or later, was certainly different from outsiders.

“She must have a hard time, as it’s difficult to please both sides that are hard nuts to crack. Long Tianyu, have you ever thought about one thing? Given your father’s character, why did he allow you to come out for me?” Lin Mengya asked.

Since the day she met Long Tianyu, she had wanted to get to the bottom of this.

In order to enable his son to inherit the throne, he even sacrificed his friendship with Lin Muzhi who had worked with him back then.

Not only did he relegate her to a vice Princess, but he also watched her brother slandered and made her father hand over the military power.

To be honest, she didn’t have a favorable impression of the Emperor anymore.

If it were not for the fact that he was Long Tianyu’s biological father, perhaps she would have found an excuse to revolt.

Now, that stubborn old man gave his favorite son implicit consent to take risks with her.

Anyway, Lin Mengya thought it strange.

Long Tianyu showed a serious look in his eyes from an angle beyond Lin Mengya’s field of vision, but then he managed to hide it.

He unconsciously tightened his embrace as if intending to press her into his body.

Fortunately, Lin Mengya was too numb to discover it.

“Perhaps it’s because of the successful peace talk with the Nan’an State. After all, our country and the Nan’an State have concluded a treaty of peace now, so he had realized his hope. Besides, if I don’t come out for you, I will be in no mood for working in the Capital City. Meanwhile, the Crown Prince and the Empress try hard to pick on me at the moment. I can stay away from trouble outside.” After explaining composedly, Long Tianyu was horrified.

In fact, not only Lin Mengya was suspicious of it, but also he had a doubt.

He came out in a hurry and summoned the Four-Saints Guards suddenly on the way.

It was hard to guarantee that his father would not find out about his visit to the Nation of Dongxia.

Strangely enough, his father did not stop him and even just handed over some government affairs of no great urgency to him these days.

Perhaps before yesterday, he would have thought that his father decided to turn a blind eye to him and Ya’er.

But now, he only felt a chill ran through him for no reason.

His father was obsessed with the relic of the Guwei State more than he could imagine.

He even heard from the old members of the Four-Saints Guards that when his father was about to inherit the throne, his father had frantically searched the relic of the Guwei State in secret.

His father probably had not dropped this idea over the years.

However, yesterday Qian Hua said that the key to the relic of the Guwei State was Ya’er.

In this case, perhaps Madam Lin’s death and Ya’er’s marriage with him were not accidents as he thought.
