Chapter 591 Expose and Frame
Therefore, she basically just ignored this kind of rumor.
Nevertheless, the reason why there came this kind of false news was mostly that the culprit wanted to cover up the truth.
“We put on quite a good show today. I keep you and teacher here because I want to leave no opportunity for the culprit to make use of. Just wait and see. Someone is coming to expose the culprit soon.”
The baby was drooling, falling asleep in Lin Mengya’s arms.
Lin Mengya gently patted the baby’s back, letting him nestle in her arms in the way of sleeping in a cradle.
As she expected, just as she put down the sleeping baby, a slightly nervous face appeared at the entrance of her tent.
Lin Mengya looked at the visitor with cold eyes and a hint of anger on her face.
Watched by her, the visitor became even more uneasy and stood at the entrance, wondering if she should come in or get out.
“What’s wrong?”
Despite her darkening face, Lin Mengya maintained the most basic courtesy.
However, it seemed more like a forced courtesy to others.
“Your Highness, in fact, I saw something that day and it’s about… about Madam Wu.”
The person said timidly, for fear that the princess, who was in a bad mood, would vent her spleen upon her in the next second.
“What did you see?”
Lin Mengya turned around and stared at the woman who looked a little strange.
“Your Highness, I saw someone sneak out of her tent in the morning of that day and sneak back to her tent a short time later. I checked the time and found that it was exactly the time when Madam Wu went crazy. The more I thought about it, the more scared I was, so I came to tell you about it.”
Lin Mengya showed an unpredictable expression, seeming to be trying to figure out whether the woman was telling the truth.
“Oh? Since that’s the case, tell me in detail. If you hide anything, I won’t spare you.”
Lin Mengya had always left an impression of a modest and gentle lady on this group of people.
However, once her face darkened, her coldness made her look intimidating.
The woman, who was just a country woman, was timid.
Even if she had some experience, she had just met some wealthy guests such as country gentlemen.
Therefore, she involuntarily became timid in front of Lin Mengya.
“Yes, I don’t dare to lie. At that time, I came across the person, who seemed to be Madam Xiao spending most of her time with Madam Wu. I asked where she was going, but she ignored me and just left in a hurry. Now I find it quite suspicious.”
Lin Mengya folded her hands tightly with an extremely gloomy face. At this moment, there was a dead silence in the tent.
At the sight of this, the woman only lowered her head and did not dare to take another glance at Lin Mengya.
“How could it be Sister Xiao? Did you mistake the person for her?”
Xiu opened her round eyes wide and asked in surprise.
Because of Xiao Yixin, they and Madam Xiao had the closest relationship here.
Unexpectedly, the culprit could be her!
“Miss Xiu, although it was at dawn, I clearly saw that it was the woman from the Xiao family!”
Although the woman didn’t dare to look into Lin Mengya’s eyes, she was very self-confident in front of Xiu, who was still young.
However, Xiu didn’t believe it, because the Madam Xiao was indeed a nice person. Moreover, they had gotten along with each other for a period of time, so Xiu naturally didn’t believe it.
“Nonsense! Sister Xiao is gentle and honest. How could she hurt Madam Wu? It’s obvious that you mistake the person for her and just want to get the reward!”
Xiu refuted the woman on the spot. Of course, the woman was unwilling to give in and opened her eyes wide. Both the two of them refused to give in to each other.
After arguing for a while, they seemed to be unwilling to yield a step.
“Enough. Stop fighting!”
Suddenly, Lin Mengya shouted coldly.
Both Xiu and the woman suddenly stopped. They glared at each other with a red face, but did not dare to keep fighting.
“Don’t tell anyone about this. I’ll handle it myself.”
Lin Mengya didn’t make a judgment. It was obvious that the woman was not satisfied with Lin Mengya’s making concessions to avoid trouble.
She changed her respectful expression.
“Okay, of course I know it. But, Your Highness, there is something I’m not supposed to say. With so many babies around, if new problems crop up unexpectedly, I’m afraid that you won’t be able to give an explanation.”
After saying a few sarcastic words, the woman pulled a long face and reluctantly walked out of the tent.
As soon as she left, Lin Mengya and Xiu changed their faces, as if the dispute just now had never happened.
“You’re right, sister. These people are really good at hitting a person when he’s down. However, sister, did you really find the evidence on Sister Xiao’s bed?”
The news of Lin Mengya’s search in the morning had spread like wildfire.
Many people saw that she left the tent angrily. Therefore, it was not surprising that someone came to expose Madam Xiao at this moment.
However, somehow Lin Mengya and Xiu were certain that Madam Xiao was set up by someone else at a glance.
“Yes, it was indeed found on her bed, but it was placed there by someone else. The woman’s reporting is just the beginning. I think after tonight, many people will know that Madam Xiao is the culprit.”
Lin Mengya thought for a while and decided to stay in the tent to see what would happen next.
Although she had warned the woman, any secret could be disclosed.
In particular, someone had obviously spread this kind of rumors.
The person would not set her mind at rest before making sure of shifting the blame onto Madam Xiao.
However, as she became complacent and thought that she had found a scapegoat, she was more likely to give herself away.
It was the most effective solution to catch the culprit on the spot.
There were always rumors in a place, where women gathered, and the rumors usually came in various versions.
As the rumor that Prince Yu had a new sweetheart died down, another rumor that someone deliberately hurt Madam Wu began to spread.
Hearing that someone would probably suffer the same thing happening to Madam Wu, everyone was so panic-stricken as to apprehend danger in every sound.
The isolated camp, which had been peaceful and friendly, was stricken by panic overnight.
There were even some anxious women trying to rush out of the isolated camp in the early morning with their babies in their arms.
Of course, Long Tianyu’s guards refused to let them pa.s.s, but the group of women cried and made a big scene in the morning.
The guards were really helpless. They were not good at dealing with crying women, so one of them went to ask Lin Mengya to come over soon.
By the time Lin Mengya arrived late with Xiu, there were five or six women sitting on the ground crying miserably with their babies in their arms.
“What’s going on here?”
Lin Mengya asked knowingly, and some guards immediately came to report.
The women, who had been very respectful and kind to her in normal times, all glared at her at this moment, as if she had done something heinous.
…
“Your Highness, these madams struggled so hard to go out that we can’t stop them. Please handle it, Your Highness.”
Li Jia, who came with the other guards, was reporting the issue to Lin Mengya at this moment.
At this moment, seeing that Lin Mengya had the right to make the final decision, the women all came to her with their babies in their arms.
“Your Highness, we all respect you, so we came here. Unexpectedly, you want us to die down here!”
The woman criticized Lin Mengya as soon as she stepped forward, but she seemed to have forgotten that if it were not for Lin Mengya’s protection, her baby would have become the fertilizer of the Venomous Armored Insects.
“You are free to leave or stay. But I have to warn you. In the camp, I can guarantee your safety. But no matter what happens to you or your babies after you leave, I won’t help you. It’s up to you whether you want to leave or stay. Li Jia, let them pa.s.s.”
Lin Mengya raised her voice slightly so that not only the woman in front of her but also the other women in the camp could hear her clearly.
Li Jia and the others naturally carried out her order. At this moment, a gap was opened up on the wall, the guards formed themselves into in order to prevent the women from going out.
However, no one dared to step out of the camp.
Lin Mengya looked around and then sat on a stone in the camp.
She looked indifferent, not affected by the woman at all.
“First of all, I saved your lives, but I don’t expect your grat.i.tude. But if you get out of here, you’ll have nothing to do with me. Your life and death will be determined by fate. I’ll try my best to protect those who stay here. For those who leave, we are even from now on. Someone goes to ask their husbands to pick them up. By the way, tell their families what happened here truthfully, in case I will be blamed for being heartless in the future.”
Lin Mengya said indifferently. However, after hearing her words, those women seemed to be frozen and did not dare to move at all.
The woman, who had talked confidently just now, twitched the corners of her mouth. She did not expect Lin Mengya to be such a cruel person.
What was more, there was nothing wrong with Lin Mengya’s words. They found it impossible for them either to stay or leave.
“In fact, Your Highness, we are just afraid. What happened to Madam Wu is really scary. We tried so hard to save our babies. We’re just afraid that they will get hurt.”
The woman said cheekily at the thought that Lin Mengya would at least urge them to stay.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya let them leave directly and decisively.
The women, who intended to rush out, felt awkward at this moment.
