Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 184 Bring Yunzhu Under Control

A letter from Lin Mengya’s brother said that their troops had been moved, but her brother and their father, as chief commanders, were both unable to leave as they wanted.

Lin Mengya slowly let out her breath. There were few people she would feel concern for.

Her brother and father were her greatest concerns from the beginning.

“Yue Qi happens to be here tonight. Prepare more dishes! Tell the kitchen, we will have a feast tonight.”

Today, cheers and laughter filled the Liuxin Courtyard.

Lin Mengya was a really generous master. She was happy, so her servants all received a bonus.

Her four maids grinned from ear to ear, and even the old servants in charge of heavy work felt grateful for the Princess’s reward.

The servants in the Liuxin Courtyard were on the gravy train.

Thanks to Lin Mengya’s rewards, everyone was excited.

Shortly after dinner, Lin Mengya insisted on visiting Baiji’s parents personally.

However, Baiji refused firmly. She insisted that her parents pay a visit to Master first.

Thus, Lin Mengya had to drink her tea inside her room.

Baiji’s family name was Mu, and her parents were honest tenant farmers.

In their eyes, the landlord in their village was rich enough.

But when they entered Prince Yu’s Mansion, they got the same feeling as Granny Liu did in the Grand View Garden.

Whether it was the quiet winding stony road or the hard-featured rockeries and rocks, their eyes were wide in awe.

Baiji had proposed to show them around the Mansion before, but her parents declined.

Even though they could speak as they were walking to Prince Yu’s Mansion, both of them wordlessly followed Baiji closely, feeling impressed.

“Father, mother, this is Liuxin Courtyard, where I serve the Princess.”

Baiji proudly introduced it to her parents.

Her parents followed her into the yard, seeing that the richly ornamented square building was really a heaven on earth.

“Uncle Mu, Aunt Mu, the Princess has been waiting for you. Come in, please.”

A round-faced beauty greeted Baiji’s parents as they approached the room.

The beauty, who was dressed similar to Baiji but seemed younger,

acted gently, unlike the common servants throwing their weight around.

Their nerves were slightly soothed. “Princess Yu must be a kind master since her maids are well-behaved.”

Baiji and Baizhi brought both of them to the main room.

The light scent of incense greeted them when they opened the door.

Right at the center of the room sat an exceedingly beautiful lady in a light yellow dress, wearing a slight smile.

The lady looked more beautiful than a fairy in a painting.

Baiji’s parents kneeled on the floor at once to greet Lin Mengya properly.

“Greetings, Your Highness. May you live for a thousand years.”

Their faces went red as they knelt on the floor, not daring to raise their heads.

Prince Yu’s Mansion was so magnificent, even the bricks constructing its floor were superior red bricks.

They were afraid that their new clothes would smudge the floor.

“Please rise. Baiji, Baisu, help them take a seat.”

A tender voice was heard, as beautiful as the sound of nature.

Later, a beauty, along with their daughter, smilingly helped them up in a tender manner.

Baiji’s parents kept their heads lowered and dared not look at the Princess. They sat at the edge of the exquisite red chair.

“How about living here? Would you be able to get used to it?”

Baiji’s parents looked older than other people their age.

Although they had lived a relatively better life compared to common people, they still kept the simplicity of farmers due to their constant farming at home.

Baiji’s parents, who seemed honest and kind at first glance, were reserved but still well-behaved.

A flicker of appreciation flashed in Lin Mengya’s eyes.

Everything was within her expectation.

“Your Highness, we can get used to it.”

Due to his experience as the steward in a landlord’s house, Baiji’s father was really well-behaved and had no nonsense.

They must have taught Baiji through their personal example, so Baiji did so well.

“Good. I feel more attached to Baiji. Although she is still young, Baiji is a very able girl.”

Lin Mengya spoke tenderly. She had actually taken Baiji’s parents as her people.

Baiji blushed after hearing Lin Mengya’s praise.

Baisu and Baizhi brought two cups of scented tea for Baiji’s parents.

A relieved smile appeared on their faces.

They would have refused had the filial Baiji not proposed to help out with their expenses.

They never imagined that their girl would be lucky enough to serve such a kind master.

They had heard in recent days that all servants in the Prince Yu’s Mansion called Baiji the young steward.

Servants said that Baiji was in charge of every single thing in the Liuxin Courtyard.

“Your Highness, you didn’t blame her for her vulgarity. It’s my daughter’s fortune.”

Baiji’s father felt embarrassed at Lin Mengya’s praise as well. Everyone’s friendliness settled their nerves.

He silently looked around and was completely impressed.

This room looked like heaven.

The Princess was a beauty, and so was the young lord sitting next to her. The young lord was delicate in appearance, more adorable than the boy following Guanyin, the Buddhism Goddess.

“From now on, we are a family. I believe Baiji has told you my request.”

After exchanging greetings, Lin Mengya went straight to the point.

She had nothing to keep from them since they were her people.

After a moment of thought, Baiji’s parents cautiously spoke.

“Master, I am very honored to have your confidence, but my experience as the steward of a landlord’s home was many years ago. I’m afraid of...of spoiling your business, Master.”

Lin Mengya had expected that they would decline.

After a while, she spoke in a friendly manner.

“Don’t worry. There are only a few things that need to be done at my store. I only need a close person to take care of it.”

Lin Mengya planned to develop Baishao and Baiji to be the shopkeepers on the surface.

And as for behind the shop, she had her own plans.

After a second of thought, Baiji’s parents said yes.

It was alright for them to just take care of the shop.

“Well then, I’ll send someone to show you the store. And there is another thing: Please keep it a secret.”

They nodded instantly. They knew this kind of thing as well.

Baiji took one night off to stay with her parents. Liuxin Courtyard, which had been bustling with laughter, became quiet.

Lin Mengya had no plan to tell Long Tianhao about the drugstore.

Recently, she had sensed that something had changed in the way Long Tianhao treated her.

They understood each other more.

Whether in the open or in secret, Long Tianhao protected her. However, she knew clearly that his support was because he considered her his person, and not because he loved her.

Therefore, she still insisted on developing her own power silently, no matter how upset she felt.

“It’s so late. Your Highness, how cozy you are.”

With a gust of wind, a figure in black appeared next to Lin Mengya.

Lin Mengya kept reading the book under the light as if she had expected the appearance of that black figure.

“I can’t sleep. Reading helps me kill time.”

Lin Mengya didn’t move, still focused on the book.

“You are so bold, Your Highness, I have to admit it. Don’t you know how much your life is in the black market?”

The cloak was taken off, and a wrinkled face was exposed.

If you looked at it carefully, you would find it older than before.

It was the well-known prostitute, and also the top killer of Peach Blossom Dock, Yunzhu.

“You seem to be more severely ill.”

Without turning her head, Lin Mengya had received the information about Yunzhu’s health condition from the Radar in her brain.

She sighed and turned around, her bright eyes focused on the lady.

“Was it worth it?”

Women cared most about their face.

The more beautiful the woman, the more she cared about it.

But an unrivaled beauty like Yunzhu was willing to give up her beautiful face for a man.

Lin Mengya hadn’t asked, but she could guess a bit.

“It doesn’t matter. Without him, Yunzhu is only a sharp sword. His existence made Yunzhu a living woman.”

Lin Mengya shook her head and then fetched a pill on the table.

“Eat it. It won’t get rid of the poison, but at least your health won’t get any worse. Don’t use your own body to try poison next time. If the poison gets into your brain, even I won’t be able to save your life.”

She sensed that Lin Mengya had seen through her condition.

A hopeful light shone in Yunzhu’s eyes.

Lately, she had found it difficult to control her emotions.

She would go crazy without the one she was worried about.

“Thank you.”

After a while, Yunzhu expressed her gratitude.

She took the pill without suspecting Lin Mengya.

“I will try my best to meet your demands, but I want you to govern my people in the darkness. Do you agree or not?”

In her opinion, Yunzhu was the best choice.

Yunzhu, who grew up in a place where all kinds of people came and went, was skilled in socializing with the mafia as well as the government.

It was not convenient for Lin Mengya to show up, and it would also be trouble if Qinghu was recognized.

Therefore, Yunzhu was the best choice.

“Are you not worried that I will betray you?”

Yunzhu felt confused.

Lin Mengya had just met her twice. How could Lin Mengya trust her so much?”

“Qinghu told me that when you quit, it almost ruined the whole system of Peach Blossom Dock in the Capital City. You are such a talent. It will be a waste if I refuse to choose you.”

Lin Mengya looked at her with utmost sincerity.

Yunzhu stared at Lin Mengya frankly for a second before finally smiling slightly.

“You’re right, Master.”

Implying that she agreed to her request.

Extending her slim hand, Lin Mengya cracked a smile.

“Well then, let’s work together.”

Yunzhu was willing to destroy her appearance for a man, she must value affections and personal loyalty highly.
