Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 46 Hidden Dangers



"What? No! It’s impossible!"

A man who sat opposite Lin Mengya pounded the table and stood up. He looked like a military general.

This man was about thirty years old and had a bushy beard. He must have a very short fuse.

"Zhu Qiang, you have always been responsible for finding out the headquarter of the Peach Blossom Dock. If you have any questions, you can ask the Princess now."

Lin Mengya suddenly saw a slender and elegant man.

He was wearing green clothes and holding a folding fan and looked gentle, harmless and clean-cut. He seemed to be very kind and friendly.

Lin Mengya glanced at him and was sure that this guy was definitely an adviser of Long Tianhao.

"The thieves of the Peach Blossom Dock are sinister and crafty. If they are hiding around the suburb of the capital city, we can definitely find some clues. There are our spies all over the city and no one can slip through our net!"

Obviously, Zhu Qiang’s words found an echo with many of those present.

But Lin Mengya smiled and took the fragrant tea on the table.

"General Zhu, you must have heard of the allusion of Darkness Under the Light, right?" The man in green was surprised by what Lin Mengya had asked. Zhu Qiang was indeed a young general who guarded the capital city, but why did she know this?

"Darkness Under the Light?" Zhu Qiang was a warrior and didn’t notice this small detail. He just stared at Lin Mengya with doubts.

It seemed that he would not give up until she explained the meaning of this allusion.

"I’ve entered the headquarter of the Peach Blossom Dock. I was in the carriage and we arrived within one hour. In such a short period of time, even an outstanding horse couldn’t go too far."

The headquarter of the Peach Blossom Dock?

All men in the study room stared speechless at each other. This was the secret of the capital city!

"Besides, Peach Blossom Dock is not on a boat. I believe that it might be a mysterious building built under water. The so-called dock may just be a cover-up."

Even if they chose a stable dock, there would be slight sway under the influence of the water flow.

Lin Mengya’s perception had been trained rigorously by her instructor, so she was sure that this was definitely not on a boat.

In an instant, everyone was shocked except for Long Tianhao and the man in green.

"How can someone live in the water in this world? Even if they live under the water, they must have the ventilator!"

The man in green frowned and asked the most critical question.

Lin Mengya gave him a faint smile.

"I’ve heard that some mountain people would dig tunnels underground in order to avoid robbers. These tunnels are curved and have their own functions. However, there are also many hidden vents in the ground and even the one who digs it can’t find all the vents. So I think that the headquarter of the Peach Blossom Dock is the same."

When she was in college, the teacher showed them an old film called "Tunnel Warfare" in order to cultivate their patriotic sentiments. She was now telling them this story calmly.

It was obvious that the current Zhu State didn’t have the historical accumulation of Huaxia for five thousand years.

After hearing what Lin Mengya had said, everyone in the study room suddenly had the vacant looks on their faces in a short time.

She might be imagining or daydreaming.

But what the Princess had said suddenly enlightened them.

"Well... I see. The year before last, I took the soldiers to encircle a killer of the Peach Blossom Dock who had succeeded in the assassination. He jumped into the water and disappeared. We asked hundreds of good swimmers to search in the water but we found nothing. Some people even said that the killers of the Peach Blossom Dock were all ghosts and they would take your life."

Lin Mengya didn’t expect that they saw the killers as ghosts.

In fact, the ghosts and gods were just people’s speculations and wild guesses.

Even Long Tianhao, who was very smart, would feel puzzled sometimes.

"Princess, you’re so careful. I’m Baili Wuchen and I acknowledge defeat."

The man in green cupped one hand in the other before his chest to show respect. Lin Mengya remembered his name.

This man was quite handsome and you would think that he was just an elegant young man at first glance.

But it seemed that the men in the study room were all respectful to him. He must play an important role.

"Mr. Baili, you flatter me. I’m just lucky and have such an adventure."

"But here’s a thing I can’t figure out. It’s said that the young lord of the Peach Blossom Dock is extremely cruel and merciless. Princess, you were kidnapped and sent to the headquarter of the Peach Blossom Dock. Why did they send you back?"

The study room suddenly became very quiet. Looking at the man who slowly raised this brutal question, Lin Mengya gave them a more charming smile.

"Because I’m the enemy agent of the Peach Blossom Dock and I come back here to harm your Prince."

Lin Mengya looked directly into the eyes of Baili Wuchen without any fear. She was calm and there was no panic in her face.

The surrounding air gradually froze and everyone looked at Lin Mengya in a precautionary posture.

She would immediately be killed as soon as the order was given.

"Princess, please explain. I’m very curious."

Baili Wuchen said gently, but there were hidden dangers in his words.

Since ancient times, the advisors were cautious and would not easily believe anyone.

Lin Mengya knew that if she couldn’t win the trust of Baili Wuchen, Long Tianhao would not believe her completely.

Working for a master who didn’t believe in you was like dancing at the point of a sword. If you were not careful, you would definitely be killed.

"Because I reached a deal with Qinghu, the young lord of the Peach Blossom Dock. I can’t tell the content of this deal to anyone except for Baili Wuchen and the Prince!"

She secretly got Baili Wuchen and Long Tianhao on her side and easily drove a wedge between Baili Wuchen and other men.

Baili Wuchen’s expression changed slightly and he realized that this woman might be also good at controlling others’ emotions.

"Why can’t we know the content? I’m not so cultivated but I’m loyal to the Prince. Princess, if you think we can’t be trusted, I will be depressed."

Zhu Qiang, who was frank and careless, didn’t realize that his words secretly put Baili Wuchen at a disadvantage.

Lin Mengya just smiled and added more fuel to the flame.

"Well, it depends on Mr. Baili. If he thinks that I can tell you this secret, I’ll tell all of you now."

Lin Mengya quietly framed up Baili Wuchen once again and made trouble for him.

If Baili said yes, they might be at a disadvantage after this secret was disclosed by others.

But it seemed that Baili didn’t trust these men present if he said no.

This woman was so mean.

"I’m incompetent, the Prince should have the final say on these important affairs."

Baili Wuchen allowed himself a wry smile in his mind and thought that he might use numerous good wine to make his dudes happy after this meeting.

"Walls have ears."

Long Tianhao, who had been silent for a long time, said these three words, and everyone didn’t mention this affair anymore.

Sitting in her chair, Lin Mengya was drinking the tea and suppressing her complacency.

It was impossible for them to frame her up!

Then they were just discussing some ways to make up for the current situation. Lin Mengya just listened quietly and didn’t give many ideas.

Therefore, everyone quietly left at lunchtime. In the study room, there were only Baili Wuchen, Long Tianhao, and Lin Mengya who was calm and relaxed.

"You two follow me." Long Tianhao looked at them lightly and stood up to open a hidden door in the study room.

Lin Mengya cleverly followed the two of them and sneaked into the tunnel behind the closed door.

The secret room was not large, and the layout was similar to that of the study. There were a lot of letters on the red sandalwood table.

Many things in the study room were used to deceive the public.

But this secret room was different. Documents in this place were the true secrets of Prince Yu’s Mansion.

"Well, you can speak up. What’s the deal between you and Qinghu?"

Long Tianhao said briefly. He completely knew their intentions when Lin Mengya and Baili Wuchen were talking in the study.

Wuchen seemed humble, but he was actually arrogant and proud.

There should be someone to depress him.

"Qinghu was severely poisoned and I can detoxify it. So I will give him the prescription and he must protect me and keep me safe for three years. This is the deal between Qinghu and me. If you don’t trust me, I can ask him to come over and tell you in person."

Long Tianhao and Baili Wuchen stared speechless at each other. They had paid close attention to the Peach Blossom Dock for many years but they had never heard this news.

"I know that you won’t believe it. Three months later, Qinghu will come over and protect me. I hope that you won’t be too surprised at that time."

The best killer of this country must work for a girl as her bodyguard for three years. It sounded like a ridiculous story!

Lin Mengya smiled secretly. Everyone would definitely be astonished at that time.

"Prince, how about..."

There was a glimpse of cruelty in Baili Wuchen eyes. He must want to take this opportunity to kill this old enemy!

But Long Tianhao shook his head. He had a bigger plan about Qinghu.

"No. Wuchen, you can leave now."

Baili Wuchen didn’t give up and still wanted to persuade the Prince. But he immediately realized that the Princess, who had framed him up, was still standing around.

He immediately turned and disappeared in the secret tunnel.

There were only Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao in this big secret room.

"Do you have a clear idea of my subordinates?"

"This is the first time I meet them, but I also find some superficial problems. Prince, your men are extremely capable but the team is not good enough."

Lin Mengya was honest and went straight to the heart of the matter.

"Talk about it." Long Tianhao was not angry. Instead, he looked at Lin Mengya with great interests and hoped that she could say something different.

"Your generals are outstanding and strong, but they are not astute enough and know little about strategies. Your advisors are very clever and crafty. They are good at destroying others, but they are not open and straightforward. Besides, they’re arrogant and might be harsh to others."

Lin Mengya said softly. But she pointed out the biggest concern of Long Tianhao.

He clearly knew their flaws. But no one was perfect and these men were all the best talents in this country.

It was a pity that he abandoned them because of their flaws.

"Prince, don’t worry. There’s a simple way to help them overcome their shortcomings. You need to treat these men as individuals and put them in the right position to improve their ability instead of treating them as guests in your mansion."

"Treat these men as individuals! Long Tianhao had been thinking about this for a long time but he didn’t do this because of various concerns."

He didn’t expect that this girl had the same idea as him.
