Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 794 - So That's How It Is

Chapter 794 So That’s How It Is

“Are you afraid? I don’t think so,” the dual-pupiled man said in a relaxed tone, as if catching up with an old friend.
However, Lin Mengya did not dare to lower her guard at all. Although she kept silent, she was beware of every move of the man.
“At least now, we are not enemies. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Xin Yu. In terms of seniority in the family, I should be the Ninth Prince’s uncle. By the way, Madame Jingrou and I are half siblings,” he added.
Xin Yu? Although Lin Mengya had learned that he was a member of the Xin Family, she knew nothing about the relationship between him and Madame Jingrou.
Presumably knowing that Lin Mengya was confused at the moment, Xin Yu smiled and glanced at the woman in front of him with interest.
“It’s no wonder that you don’t know it. I was discarded by the Xin Family. No, besides me, there are plenty of people who were discarded by the Xin Family but can never leave. We are the shadows of the Xin Family,” he said gently and peacefully, as amicable as a man who met his old friend.
But Lin Mengya was aware that it was not as simple as he said.
Regardless of whether or not he was telling the truth, she was currently at his mercy.
Therefore, she had to listen to whatever he said.
He said, “Why do you keep silent? Miss Lin, you’re quite a suspicious woman. No wonder Mr. Zhu said that it’s extremely difficult to gain your trust. Only by mentioning his name, can I make you candid with me.”
Mr. Zhu! Lin Mengya’s eyes lit up, and the vigilance in her eyes reduced a little as he expected.
Finding it interesting, Xin Yu added sincerely, “Mr. Zhu said that you took care of a child, who had followed him before, and the child is very well now. He is very grateful to you for making a proper arrangement for Zhu Yan before you left the Jin State. So he sent me to help you.”
Hearing his words, Lin Mengya was no longer hostile towards Xin Yu, but she was still wary of him.
As she knew more about Zhu Yun, she found him tremendously mysterious.
When Qinghu escaped from the Candle Dragon Cult, it was Zhu Yun who dealt with the follow-up troubles for him.
Lin Mengya had tried to get more information about him from Qinghu in a roundabout way.
But Qinghu only said that Zhu Yun was his old friend and had some power and a position in the Candle Dragon Cult.
Except for that, Qinghu feigned ignorance to gloss things over and refused to say anything else.
As such, when Xin Yu blurted out Zhu Yun’s name, Lin Mengya was astonished, but found it made sense.
Probably no one other than Zhu Yun could deceive them with ease under the threat of the aggressive Candle Dragon Cult.
“How did you know that I’m Lin Mengya? If nothing else, I ought to have been considered a dead person in your information network, right?” Lin Mengya said.
Xin Yu showed a softer smile when he heard her admit it naturally.
If she believed him instantly, he would consider her stupid.
Xin Yu shook his head, seeming to be aware that he would definitely answer her question.
He said, “You played a brilliant trick indeed so that most of the members of the Candle Dragon Cult were deceived by you. Nevertheless, I suppose you are still unaware of one thing: the entire process of your getting the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass is within Mr. Zhu’s expectation. He has long foreseen that you would not die there and the Ninth Prince would go to save you. So he sent me to wait here for you.”
Learning that her trick had been seen through, Lin Mengya felt that her heart skipped a beat.
She had never believed that anyone could foresee things. However, Zhu Yun was able to gain the upper hand in everything, which made Lin Mengya involuntarily confused.
She lowered her eyes and pondered.
Only a few minutes, when she looked up again, her eyes returned to sober.
“Well, I appreciate Mr. Zhu’s kindness. But I would like to know if you stay here to help my brother win the throne or help me with something else?” Lin Mengya said, with her doubt dispelled in their conversation.
Xin Yu involuntarily looked at her questioningly.
He asked, “Aren’t you curious?”
“Curious about what?” She said.
Her answer baffled Xin Yu.
He shook his head and said with admiration, “I know I can’t hide it from you. Mr. Zhu said that you are the only one in the world who knows him. Now it seems that Mr. Zhu is right.”
Lin Mengya smiled and did not make detailed inquiries about this.
In fact, she really thought that Zhu Yun could foresee things just now.
However, soon Lin Mengya thought of a person.
When she was in university, one of her roommates was particularly fond of Sherlock Holmes.
She watched the wonderful detective TV series starring Benedict Cumberbatch, a handsome actor with a long face, several times with her roommate although she was not that interested in it.
In fact, in the beginning, Lin Mengya was very dismissive of Sherlock’s foresight and did not believe that he was so smart.
But the subsequent analysis made things reasonable.
Zhu Yun was such a person. He must have a formidable and secret information network.
Besides, he was smart and proficient in making meticulous analyses, so it wasn’t necessarily difficult for him to find out that she was still alive.
“It’s not difficult to guess. As long as his information network is formidable enough, he could find out many things. Nevertheless, I’d like to know how long the fact that I’m still alive can be hidden,” Lin Mengya asked.
Although she was very cautious and almost no one knew that Xiaoyu had been to the Nation of Dongxia and infiltrated the Candle Dragon Cult, the truth would come out sooner or later.
She must accomplish her plan before that, otherwise, she would fail on the eve of complete success.
“It was supposed to be kept secret for less than half a year. However, just a few days ago, Prince Yu, who had not declared Princess Yu’s death all this time, held an extremely grand funeral for Princess Yu and even fainted several times during the funeral. Princess Yu’s trusted maids also showed up at the funeral. All of them were so deeply grieved that anyone who saw or heard about it would shed tears. So now Princess Yu has been considered dead,” Xin Yu said.
Lin Mengya frowned slightly, wondering what he meant.
No, Long Tianyu would not believe that she was dead so easily.
Unless…
Lin Mengya’s pupils contracted as she exclaimed in her heart.
“Your husband seems to have discovered the fact that you are still alive, but I don’t know why he held a grand funeral for you. Miss Lin, Mr. Zhu said that if people only considered your death 50% true before that, now they consider it 70% to 80% true,” Xin Yu said.
He, who seemed to enjoy watching Lin Mengya frown, revealed a mocking look in his eyes.
He liked smart people and found it greater fun to fool them and watch them get upset.
Unfortunately, Mr. Zhu was so highly intelligent that he could fool any of his targets.
Fortunately, the smart woman in front of him gave him a chance to have this rare fun.
“That’s good. Thank you for bringing this news. But I think that you are not here at this time just to tell me this news, are you?” Lin Mengya said without hesitating long.
Xin Yu complained in his heart that she spoiled his fun, but he cherished it because it was rare.
He stopped smiling. They had been talking in a low voice, and now the rain and wind outside completely kept their conversation in the courtyard.
They were the only two people in this world who knew their complete conversation.
“Well, in fact, Mr. Zhu sent me here to find something, and you need it more than Mr. Zhu does. Wanyan Jing may be aware of what you have done. So Mr. Zhu asked me to warn you that Wanyan Jing wants something more than the Lieyun Empire. If you want to defeat him, you can’t show any mercy. He actually doesn’t care about the failure of the Empress this time. His real pawn in the imperial palace is Madame Hui,” Xin Yu said.
He offered too much information, so Lin Mengya took a while to straighten it out.
“You said that you’re here to help me. I’d like to know how you are going to help me?” After pondering for a while, Lin Mengya asked seriously.
Xin Yu put away his teasing and relaxed expression and stared intently at the woman in front of him with his dual-pupiled eyes.
He said, “I can help you with only a few things, so there are many things you have to handle yourself. I’ll find a way to inform you of whatever Wanyan Jing did or is going to do the moment I learn it. Nevertheless, whether you can completely get rid of the henchmen of the Eldest Prince, it’s up to you. When the time comes, I’ll assist you to find the thing. Before that, don’t act rashly, otherwise, you will suffer the consequences, and Mr. Zhu’s arrangement will be spoiled.”
After a long conversation, she found Xin Yu was not a great addition to her sent by Mr. Zhu.
Fortunately, Lin Mengya was never a person who liked to rely on others. Although she learned that Xin Yu could help her with nothing other than conveying information, she did not feel frustrated.
“Does that palace maid outside work for you? Should I keep pretending to be hypnotized?” She asked.
Xin Yu shook his head. If Wanyan Jing hadn’t been occupied with something else and it hadn’t rained heavily, he would probably have to wait for another period before he could come clean with Lin Mengya.
He said, “Wanyan Jing is very deep-minded and keenly aware that we just make use of each other. So he has never fully trusted me and just considers me as a pawn only because of my pupil craft. Besides, you’d better not interfere in the affairs of the Xin Family that is not as simple as you think. Even I may not know the complete background of the Xin Family. Moreover, there is something wrong with Xin Li. I’m only sure that he is the least likely to be the Emperor of the Lieyun Empire. Just remember this. As for other things, it’s not appropriate to tell you the details now. In addition, I will tell Wanyan Jing that the hypnotism I used on you has been cracked, but you will forget what happened here. He may not believe it, so he is very likely to deal with you secretly. Be careful.”
