Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 614 - Mysterious Identity

Chapter 614 Mysterious Identity

After the alarm was lifted, Lin Mengya could finally give a long sigh of relief.

She did that secretly, though.

In front of Gu Die, she made herself as arrogant as she could be.

“What are you doing here? Don’t tell me you’re here just to mock me.”

It was no wonder that everyone said that people had to go through hardships before they could grow up.

Gu Die was wilful a few days ago, but she gradually showed signs of maturity in her mind after experiencing a double blow.

That was a good situation, but unfortunately, Lin Mengya felt that it was better for a young lady like her to stay in her loving home and never see the sinister reality.

That was because once it started, there would be no possibility of stopping.

“Of course I don’t have so much free time. By the way, there’s one thing I have to tell you. Gu Xing has confessed everything, including how you killed the people of Yun State with poison. But His Highness did not want to see you, so he sent me to ask you if you admit your guilt.”

Lin Mengya looked at her, and the falsehood in her words directly saddened Gu Die.

It was obvious that Gu Die suffered a great blow and didn’t want to accept it. Nevertheless, she couldn’t help but doubt it.

“That’s impossible! I’ve never done such a thing. Brother Xing was talking nonsense!”

Of course, this kind of denial was within Lin Mengya’s expectations.

Speaking of which, Gu Die was a poor person, but unfortunately, Lin Mengya in front of her was not a person who took pity on women.

“Nonsense? You know exactly what was in that medicine pouch you gave me the other day, don’t you? I’ve already given it to His Highness. Do you think he will let you off the hook?”

At first, Lin Mengya just wanted to trick her. Yet, for some unknown reason, the expression on Gu Die’s face changed drastically when she heard these words.

She was so nervous that her gaze kept darting around, and she didn’t dare to look into Lin Mengya’s eyes.

It seemed that there was something fishy about it.

“Don’t think that you will escape the notice of His Highness. You should know that there are many famous doctors in the imperial court. Someone will definitely figure it out. Given His Highness’s love for me, maybe he will pay a visit to your master and seek justice for me.”

Lin Mengya observed Gu Die’s expression and knew that she was afraid.

“That’s strange. This woman dared to poison me, but why is she so afraid of me going after her?”

As soon as Gu Die heard that Lin Mengya was going to pay her master a visit, her face immediately turned pale.

She bit her lips tightly with a hint of pleading in her tearful eyes.

“I was the one who did this! I will take responsibility for what I did. I admit that it was Gu Xing and me who sent you a pouch with poison hidden in it. Nonetheless, I didn’t mean to harm you. Besides, if you need a scapegoat, I can do it. All this is to make up for the mistake I’ve made. Although I’m shameless, the disciples in my sect will never do such an evil thing. If you want to beat or kill me, just go ahead.”

Gu Die seemed to be disheartened, but Lin Mengya didn’t really want to doom her to death.

She raised her eyebrows, pondered for a moment, and then softened her attitude.

“His Highness is definitely not a person who doesn’t know good from evil. But in the pouch you gave me, in addition to the medicine that can make me die due to weakness, there is another kind of medicine that caused this plague. Otherwise, do you think His Highness would suspect you for no reason?”

In fact, Lin Mengya had already guessed that the pouch was delivered to her by someone through Gu Die.

If it weren’t for the protection of the Shen Nung system, she would have fallen into the trap by now.

Sure enough, when Gu Die heard these words, she widened her watery eyes and stared at Lin Mengya, as if she couldn’t believe what she said.

...”No... that’s impossible! I admit that there is indeed a large amount of Lixin Grass in the pouch, but there will never be that kind of poison!”

Lixin Grass was a kind of poison that grew in valleys. It had no other effect except for making it difficult for women to get pregnant after being used for a long time.

Of course, if it hadn’t been discovered for a long time, it was possible that the one who was poisoned would be unable to get pregnant.

Lin Mengya did smell Lixin Grass in the pouch. Nonetheless, the medicine had been changed.

“Lixin Grass? Are you kidding me? Do you think that His Highness would flare up because of that? Gu Die, you’re too naive. You’ve fallen into someone else’s trap since you tried to poison me. In fact, the pouch doesn’t belong to you, right?”

All of a sudden, Lin Mengya raised her voice and looked at Gu Die in an aggressive manner.

Gu Die’s already weak aura was unable to withstand Lin Mengya’s crushing.

Subconsciously, she shook her head desperately. Obviously, because of the continuous blows, she was in a mess.

...”I didn’t... drug you. It’s... it’s Brother Xing’s idea. But he did it in order to help me. He’s the one who brought Lixin Grass back. Impossible. It’s impossible for him to have something to do with the prisoner!”

Given Gu Die’s expression, Lin Mengya knew that this woman’s line of defense had been completely destroyed by her.

Although the method was a little cruel, if she did not figure it out, she was afraid that Gu Die would be the next scapegoat.

“Since Gu Xing got it for you, do you know with whom he was conspiring?”

Gu Die curled up on the bed and looked distracted.

Only when Lin Mengya got closer could she hear her mutterings.

...”It’s... it’s a mysterious man who found Brother Xing. They said... they could achieve all my wishes as long as... as long as I cooperated with them.”

Lin Mengya muttered to herself, “Another mysterious man. It seems that the force of Yun State is also involved in many forces as I expected.”

Nevertheless, she didn’t know which force this man belonged to.

“Do you know who the mysterious man is? Where does his group settle down? Did he reveal any information in their conversation?”

Lin Mengya tried to persuade Gu Die to speak obediently.

“I’ve only seen them once. Only Brother Xing knows how to contact them. I don’t know anything else.”

Lin Mengya felt that it was enough for an inexperienced person to suffer such a painful blow.

Although she was a person who would do anything to achieve her goal, she had her own bottom line.

After pondering for a while, she reached out her hand and gently touched Gu Die’s head.

“Go home. Take everything here as a nightmare.”

Now, if Gu Die stayed, she believed that the other party would not let her go.

On the contrary, if she returned to her own home, she would be much safer with the protection of her family.

On the trip to Luoshui Town, Long Tianyu had already consumed her energy. Thus, she would not pay attention to anyone who was insignificant.

“Don’t you hate me?”

That gentle touch stunned Gu Die in an instant.

She sat there in a daze. It seemed that she did not believe that the woman in front of her would have such a gentle attitude towards her.

“Hate you? Why should I hate you? You have never been my enemy.”

Lin Mengya leaned to one side and smiled peacefully. However, in the eyes of Gu Die, Lin Mengya had never cared about her at all.

She swallowed the bitterness in her heart. In this life, she had never been looked down upon so thoroughly by someone.

Just like what Lin Mengya had said, she was never her match.

Lin Mengya didn’t care what kind of psychological activity the woman behind her would have.

In short, as long as she didn’t make trouble for her under her nose, Lin Mengya didn’t care about anything.

“I didn’t expect that the famous Princess Yu would be so kind and soft-hearted one day. Since Gu Die dared to poison you, shouldn’t you teach her a lesson that she would never forget in her life given your character?”

A rough voice, which Lin Mengya could not distinguish whether it belonged to a man or a woman, came. In an instant, she seemed to be frozen. She straightened her back and was on guard against the person behind her.

“Oh? Is that so? You seem to know me very well.”

Lin Mengya seemed relaxed, but she secretly put her little hand into her chest pocket.

An extremely sharp dagger was held tightly in her hand.

All the muscles in her body were tightened. With her keen senses, she sensed that the person behind her was getting closer and closer.

...Ten steps, nine steps, eight steps...

The man was getting closer and closer, but Lin Mengya still kept this posture, as if she was frozen on the spot, until a pair of slender arms gently wrapped around her back.

“Silly girl, are you thinking of Miss Yue again? Good girl, it’s not your fault.”

The gentle voice, which could heal any wound, immediately made Lin Mengya’s sharp eyes burst into tears.

The thin build and the familiar sweet scent in her nose indicated the identity of the person who had come.

“Well, I’m really sad. It hasn’t been long since I left, but my silly girl doesn’t remember me at all.”

Lin Mengya could not stop her tears from streaming down her cheeks hearing the theatrical exclamation.

Nonetheless, she stubbornly did not look back. After breaking free from the other’s slender arms, she left without looking back.

“Haha, you still have the same temper. It’s just that I don’t know how long I can stay with you this time.”

The one who was left on the spot was covered in a pure black, loose robe and a red beast mask.

However, for some reason, the pair of hands that had stretched out the sleeves had turned so pale that they were almost transparent.

Shaking head, the person behind the mask let out a faint sigh but followed Lin Mengya with light footsteps.

In the tent, Long Tianyu was making the final arrangement of his trip to Luoshui Town.

That said, he had never shifted his gaze from Lin Mengya since she came in even if she just entered quietly and sat in a corner.

“Everything will be carried out according to the plan. Zhu Qiang, you will be in charge of the vigilance along the way. The others shall cooperate fully with him.”

Everyone replied, “Yes.”
