Chapter 185 Mr. Genius
“I will take him there as soon as possible. But don’t tell others about .”
An invisible sorrow flashed in Yunzhu’s eyes.
“Okay, that’s settled.”
Lin ngya hated invading the privacy of others, especially soone like Yunzhu whose sorrow even she could not identify with.
As long as Yunzhu was useful to her, she didn’t care about anything else.
“Okay. Moran told that many killers who served in Peach Blossom Dock have been contacted. Now, we need a na.”
Yunzhu quickly adjusted to the position of governor and worked on it.
Lin ngya thought for a while and then gently said,
“Big Three Hall. It is a drugstore, but in fact, it is Big Three Hall.”
Yunzhu was excited. Big Three Hall sounded quite extraordinary.
“If soone asks for dical help, they have to pass three trials. You will choose the top three from the winners, and call them Mr. Genius. Vagabonds have to pass the three trials before they join Big Three Hall or ask for dical help.”
Lin ngya set a high standard. Common people would buy nothing but drugs of high quality from Big Three Hall.
It was only poisoning that she did well in.
Common people would hardly ever ask for that.
Therefore, she just needed to show up when necessary.
The money from detoxifying others in the drugstore would be enough to run Big Three Hall well.
Those itinerant wanderers were all rich enough.
It would be stupid of Lin ngya not to make use of them and make a fortune.
“I see, Master. Believe , I will definitely run Big Three Hall well. Master, I think it would be better if you go to Big Three Hall on a fixed schedule. You know, it’s difficult to enter your house.”
Lin ngya knew what Yunzhu ant. Night was guarding her.
Night, who never eavesdropped on her, kept his eyes on whoever ca into her house in case of any contingency.
Her identity would be exposed sooner or later if Yunzhu beca a frequent visitor here.
It would therefore be better to handle the affairs of Big Three Hall on a fixed schedule.
“I will go there on the first and fifth day of every month. Rember, don’t talk to others about . You are the owner of Big Three Hall.”
Lin ngya thought herself to be a bad leader.
Therefore, she would like soone capable of governing to do that thing.
Yunzhu nodded. After talking for a while longer, she silently left.
Lin ngya opened the window and a gust of cool wind made her huddle up into her robe.
These days, she had been living such a soul-stirring life.
Soone kept planning to hurt her whether in public or in private.
“Be careful. You’ll get a cold.”
In the moonlight, a figure in black approached.
The wind blew his long hair up, and his face looked indifferent but still handso.
Lin ngya placed her hand under her chin and gave him a tender smile.
“Why did you co here so late?”
Long Tianhao wanted to ask this himself. He had tried every ans to fall asleep, but he failed tonight.
And then, he unconsciously wandered into her place with a lantern.
In the light, she looked graceful, quiet, and as elegant as a fairy on earth.
She was not wearing any ornant on her head, perhaps because she was going to bed, but it made her look beautifully lazy.
Long Tianhao was surprised by her beauty, and a current of warmth rippled in his heart.
“I...just don’t want to sleep.”
‘Losing sleep?’ Lin ngya naturally opened the door and waited for Long Tianhao the way a real wife would do.
“Are you worried about Concubine De?”
Concubine De had been kept in the Palace for a couple of days now. Long Tianhao requested many close officials to inquire after her, only to be told that the Empress only talked about the old days with Concubine De.
Anxiety fernted in their minds.
‘What old days did they have? Were they actually even that close?’
“Yes. My people told that everything is fine in the Palace. Mother was seen in the Palace of the Empress every day. They said that the doctor treated Mother because she caught a cold.”
Sitting on the warm bed, Long Tianhao seed a little tired.
There was rarely ti for both of them to stay with each other quietly. His tone turned even more tender.
“I believe the Empress dares not do sothing to Concubine De publicly. Many people have their eyes on her now, after all. Perhaps Concubine De really had a cold. Oh, have you checked the doctor’s record?”
Long Tianhao nodded. He had already checked.
It stated that Concubine De caught a cold.
On the surface, there was nothing wrong.
“We had better wait and see. Don’t worry, Your Highness, if they really wanted to do sothing, Concubine De will not let them. Concubine De is more powerful than she seed these past years.”
Lin ngya comforted him in a gentle tone, but she felt worried as well.
The Empress was second only to the Emperor.
She possessed supre power in Dajin.
Every ti she t the Empress, Lin ngya would be on guard for all possible danger.
The Empress was the only one who made her feel a suffocating sense of oppression.
The Empress was unusual.
“Mother has sacrificed a lot for even since I was young.”
Tonight, Long Tianhao did talk to Lin ngya about his past for no reason.
Perhaps it was because the quietness at night aroused his fragility deep inside no matter how strong he looked outside.
Or maybe it was because only Lin ngya, in such a grand mansion, could understand his concerns about his mother.
From the very first sentence, his mories began to flood out.
“Mother beca the most beloved, unique concubine of my father upon her arrival at the Palace. Father also put great hope on . I believe I was hated by the Empress and the Crown Prince at that ti.”
Lin ngya listened attentively. No one would know the truth about those things happening in the Palace other than the people involved.
However, she found sothing unusual.
Since Concubine De had a connection with Prince Lingnan, it was unlikely that the Emperor would not care about it no matter how generous he might be.
However, according to what Concubine De and Long Tianhao had told her, she believed that the Emperor really loved both of them.
“What on earth happened before?”
“Your Highness, don’t worry.”
Lin ngya had noticed that Long Tianhao would subconsciously make a fist every ti he felt nervous.
Lin ngya reached out over the table and covered his fist with her slender hands.
The coldness of his hands made her feel distressed.
He had built a high wall from others with his indifferent look.
No one really tried their best to look beyond that wall and see the soft heart hidden behind it.
The warmth passed between their skins.
He turned his head, only to see her light smile in the light.
“You will save Concubine De from there.”
Her soft voice conveyed her undoubting faith in him.
Long Tianhao had never been surrounded by such warm softness.
He unconsciously held her soft hands.
He held on so tight as if he never wanted to let go.
“Your Highness—”
She called him tenderly and shyly.
It was her first ti to be stared at so eagerly by a man.
She blushed. Lin ngya, who never got embarrassed by anything, lowered her head shyly.
Weird. What was wrong with her?
“May...may I sleep here tonight?”
Long Tianhao suddenly asked. His voice was lowered as well.
He didn’t want to be alone. He would at least have her with him if he stayed here.
Looking at her earlobes that were so red it was as if they were bleeding, Long Tianhao couldn’t help but raise his hands to rub her soft chin.
“May I?”
No one would be able to refuse such a deep voice.
Lin ngya, who was staring into his alluring eyes, felt dizzy as if she were drunk.
“Yes, five hundred taels for one night.”
Having said such shaless words in a tender fashion, even Lin ngya would want to hide dig a hole and hide.
“Oh no! “‘She had wanted to say no.
Long Tianhao paused and then cracked a smile.
“Deal. But I didn’t carry cash. What about a check?”
“Such a little girl would not let go of any chance to earn money.
“Five hundred taels? Oh, a little expensive.”
“Fine. Give it to first.”
She smilingly reached out her hands. Such a profiteer.
She would leave her shyness behind when it ca to money.
Long Tianhao looked at his little girl with a big smile and thought to himself.
It seed his wife was unusually enthusiastic about money.
His hand found nothing as it reached into his chest.
Then, he realized that money was always placed in his outer clothes, and he was currently wearing his casual clothes.
“Um...Can I give it to you tomorrow morning? I forgot to carry it with .”
He spread out his hands and pleaded sheepishly.
However, Lin ngya, who was still smiling, showed an apologetic expression.
“Sorry. No credit here!”
In the darkness, Long Tianhao, who had been pushed out by Lin ngya, helplessly watched his little girl closing the door.
“Oh my goodness!
“I was driven out by my wife, just because I had no money.”
He smiled bitterly and shook his head. “Little girl, she really loves money, not the person.”
While Long Tianhao was seriously considering whether or not it would be necessary to carry hundreds of taels with him in the future, a figure silently appeared next to him.
“Master, we found sothing in the Palace.”
Instantly, Long Tianhao turned back into the cold and ruthless Prince Yu.
He indifferently stared at Night who was clad in black.
“What is it?”
Night knelt on the ground and calmly replied.
“There is news from the Palace that Aunt Jinyue died from a sudden illness at nightfall.”
“What ?!”
Long Tianhao could not conceal the astonishnt in his eyes.
“When she entered the palace this ti, Mother was only accompanied by Jinyue and Jingyue.”
“Had mother been—”
