Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 789 Failed Murder Attempt

In addition to her own footsteps, there were other sounds.

Lin Mengya rushed to the door immediately. When she saw an unfamiliar figure outside, she immediately bowed respectfully.

Outside the small side chamber, a personal servant in navy blue was looking at her up and down expressionlessly.

“You, you’re that Helan from the Fengyu Court?”

Lin Mengya’s heart skipped a beat and she nodded gently.

However, she subconsciously moved closer to the room.

“It must be you then. Young miss, in the palace, what you fear most is that you can’t control your mouth. So when you get there, learn to keep your mouth shut.”

The servant suddenly turned extremely evil. Lin Mengya’s heart skipped a beat, but she remained calm.

“Who sent you here? Let me tell you, this is the chamber of the Emperor. Aren’t you... afraid that people will hear you?”

Lin Mengya’s expression changed slightly and she kept looking out of the window.

But this was the most remote place in the chamber. Even birds would not come here to leave their droppings, much less the guards.

“What’s the point of knowing all this? I advise you not to struggle. Many people have died at my hands. Don’t worry, I won’t let you feel too much pain.”

A faint silver light flashed from the servant’s hand.

Lin Mengya immediately realized that the silver light was a very thin steel wire or something like that.

As long as that went around her neck, she could die immediately!

“Help! Someone wants to kill me!”

Lin Mengya screamed at the top of her lungs. The servant’s eyes were slightly cold. He suddenly closed the gap between them and trapped Lin Mengya firmly in the corner.

“Don’t, don’t come over!”

Lin Mengya fell onto the bed, but there were only a few damp pillows and a damp quilt by her side.

Lin Mengya could do nothing to resist the servant’s attack, so she huddled up in the corner with the quilt in her arms.

Under the dim candlelight, Lin Mengya shivered, looking pitiful.

However, the servant’s eyes revealed an ominous glint, without the slightest trace of pity.

She forcefully dragged Lin Mengya to the bedside and wrapped the silver wire around her snow-white and delicate neck.

With a forceful pull, the tight silver wire was as sharp as a knife.

Something did not seem right.

Before the servant could react, the voices of the guards came from outside.

“Who is it!? Surround him!”

The cold voice had made the servant, who had been extremely vicious just now, a little panic.

However, he was highly skilled in martial arts. It shouldn’t be too hard for him to escape from a few guards.

He immediately let go of the silver wire in his hand, but unexpectedly, a woman’s head fell to his feet first.

“No! He didn’t use much strength at all. How could her head fall to the ground?”

Moreover, when he seized the woman just now, not only did she not struggle, but she did not even make a sound.

“You’ve finally come to your senses? A little too late.”

A gentle voice sounded from behind like a ghost.

Subconsciously, she turned her head and saw a woman, who should have died, standing there calmly and smiling at her.

“Poof...”

He felt great pain in his abdomen. The servant lowered his head and saw a long sword come out of his belly.

Immediately, an unusually numbing sensation spread from the wound to the rest of his body. Even when he had completely fallen into darkness, he still did not realize what exactly had happened.

With a “clang”, the servant who was tasked with killing Lin Mengya fell at her feet.

There was a sneer at the corner of Lin Mengya’s mouth. Since the servant had bumped into her, the servant couldn’t decide whether he lived or died.

“Are you alright, Miss?”

A slim and graceful figure walked out from the darkness.

Baisu looked at Lin Mengya worriedly, fearing that something would happen to her.

“I’m fine. You’re not hurt, are you?”

It was dark in the room. That was why she resorted to a little ‘trick of the eye’.

It was also because the servant was so arrogant that he failed to notice the puppet-doll Lin Mengya had put in the bed beforehand.

After being blocked by the puppet, Lin Mengya immediately leaned against the wall and quietly walked toward the door.

“With her ability, she can’t hurt me.”

Baisu looked at the body on the ground with disdain. It was not clear whether he was alive or dead.

How dare he try to kill her young mistress! Even his ten thousand deaths would not be enough to appease the hatred in her heart!

“Okay.”

Lin Mengya was very confident in Baisu’s martial arts.

At this moment, the guards outside followed the voice and arrived.

After exchanging glances, they immediately pretended to be scared to death.

When the guards came in, all they saw was Baisu holding Lin Mengya and comforting her carefully.

Lin Mengya, on the other hand, was still in shock. Not only was her face drained of its colors, but there were also tears welling up in her eyes, which made people feel sorry for her.

“Misses, what...”

Although the guards did not know these two girls, they knew that a palace maid of Fengyu Court was locked up in the little side chamber, and her identity was very important.

Baisu had to speak in a polite tone.

“Brother, I’m Baisu from the Fengyu Court. This is Miss Helan. Someone tried to attack her just now, and I happened to save her. The body is right there. Please report to His Majesty that someone is scheming against His Majesty!”

The guards quickly dealt with the situation and knew that what Baisu said was true, especially when they saw the body lying on the ground, whose life status was not known. They were shocked and immediately ordered people to go and protect the Emperor and Madame Jingrou.

Lin Mengya and Baisu, who now could enjoy a temporary moment of silence and freedom in the room, looked at each other.

From the look, Baisu knew what to do. So she immediately picked up the silver wire from the ground with extraordinary speed.

Baisu bit the bullet and wrapped the wire around Lin Mengya’s delicate neck. With just a little strength, she managed to leave a thin cut on Lin Mengya’s skin, from which beads of blood oozed out.

A sharp pain came from her neck. Lin Mengya bit her lip hard and didn’t cry out in pain.

It only took them a very short time to finish what they were doing, so when the guards returned, they didn’t know that there was a fresh wound on Lin Mengya’s neck.

“Misses, please come with me. You guys, take this assassin away with you!”

The authoritative guard commanded everyone present, including Lin Mengya and Baisu, so they were obedient.

Therefore, when she and Baisu appeared in front of the Emperor and Madame Jingrou, the wound on her neck had been bandaged simply by Doctor Liu.

The pain from the medicine made her feel uncomfortable.

However, this was someone else’s territory and the fine herbs she had were useless for the time being.

Moreover, it was just a small wound, yet it yielded an extremely good result, so it was considered worthwhile.

“Helan! How can this be?”

In the chamber, Madame Jingrou was surprised.

When she saw that her palace maid was injured and wearing a pale face, she looked a little angry.

“Your Grace, I went to secretly visit Miss Helan, but who would’ve thought that I saw someone trying to kill her? If it wasn’t for the fact that I saw what was going on, Miss Helan would’ve likely become an innocent soul by now. Look, the wound on her neck was caused by that assassin. This is His Majesty’s chamber, and that assassin is likely to do something against His Majesty.”

Everyone knew that Baisu was Wanyan Yu’s personal guard.

As for Helan, or her true identity, Lin Mengya, there were plenty of rumors going around in the palace about her relationship with the young prince.

On this point, everyone was clear about it.

Therefore, it was reasonable for Baisu to appear here.

More importantly, who had the audacity to attempt to kill Helan in the Emperor’s chamber?

“How dare these people! Your Majesty, it was poisoning last time, but now it’s a blatant assassination attempt. Who wants to harm you?”

When it came to matters related to the Emperor, Madame Jingrou could no longer control her anger.

The Emperor, who had been sitting on the seat of honor, was no longer indifferent.

After looking around coldly, the teacup in his hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

“Investigate! Find the real culprit and kill him immediately!”

“Yes, your Majesty!”

The guards took the order and left. Lin Mengya knew that the Emperor was really angry.

She lowered her eyes and pretended to be trembling.

However, there was no panic in her eyes.

Now that Lin Mengya already had the guiding herbs and the medicinal herbs, metaphorically speaking. She now wanted to see the effects of this fierce dose of herbs in the palace.

Because of the ‘fright’, Lin Mengya and Baisu were arranged to go back to the Fengyu Court to rest.

Though, the Fengyu Court had increased security. No one could sneak in again and plot against her.

In the side chamber, Baisu applied medicine on Lin Mengya’s wound with self-blame on her face.

She felt much better using her own medicine. It was cold and didn’t hurt at all.

By the time Lin Mengya got her wound bandaged with a layer of clean cotton cloth, she couldn’t feel any discomfort.

It would probably begin to scab tomorrow morning.

Her healing medicine had always been so effective, almost like magic.

“What’s wrong? It doesn’t hurt anymore. Look at you, you look like you’re about to cry.”

Lin Mengya teased the silly girl in front of her in a low voice. In fact, Lin Mengya felt a little sorry.

After all, she knew that the last thing Baisu wanted to do was to hurt her.

But in order to complete this plan better, she had to make Baisu hurt her.

“It’s all my fault. I didn’t exercise enough control over my own strength, so I hurt you. Miss, actually, I could have handled the situation on my own. If something had happened to you, I would have regretted it for the rest of my life.”

In fact, when the plan was made, Baisu had volunteered to get injured in her place.

However, after considering all aspects, Lin Mengya believed that she was the most suitable person for the task. She insisted on going to the frontline by herself.

“I just know that you are the only one who can carry out the plan. As for the others, I don’t dare to let them cut my neck. It’s alright, the little guy is coming. Let’s see how he is doing.”

She was joking. Before she could finish her words, the door was pushed open.

Then, a moon-white figure pulled her hard in his arms.

“Everything’s all right, I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

Lin Mengya comforted the owner of these slender arms helplessly. Alas, it seemed that it would be better for her not to get involved personally in the future.

Otherwise, these people around her would be scared to death sooner or later.
