Chapter 449 Disclose the Purpose
However, now it was a little too late for her to stay out of the business.
Since the day she stepped on this territory, those who intended to struggle for the music score for green stringed instrument might have seen through her identity.
Thinking of this, she considered that she suffered from her own actions. After all, she volunteered to come to the Nation of Lintian for seeking medicine.
So no matter what happened, she must bear the consequences.
Zuo Qiuchen obviously knew that now Lin Mengya was ignorant of the situation in the Pavilion of Herbs.
In fact, as he knew about Lin Mengya, he gradually realized that this little cousin sister seemed a little different from his aunt.
So even he didn’t know whether it was a good idea to get her involved in this.
“The change of the Pavilion of Herbs means more than being in charge of the Pavilion of Herbs. The more important thing is that the music score for green stringed instrument contains a big secret even unknown to us. So people try hard to struggle for it.”
A big secret? Lin Mengya opened her mouth, but didn’t ask the question in her heart.
If even Zuo Qiuchen didn’t know it, or he knew it but couldn’t tell them, it would probably be related to something else besides the Pavilion of Herbs.
However, it was not the reason for her to shrink back.
Apart from others, the forces intending to struggle for the music score for green stringed instrument would definitely not be fooled by her easily.
Fortunately, the music score for green stringed instrument was as tattered as a child’s graffiti without being interpreted by her.
The extremely artful way of overlapping ink marks was probably used to prevent the music score for green stringed instrument from being forged and falling into the hands of enemies.
She had to admire the ancestors’ wisdom. It was even difficult to apply this advanced method with modern high-tech technologies.
Thinking of it now, she felt a little sorry.
No matter how clear the 3D images simulated by the Shen Nung system were, it was still a pity if the music score for green stringed instrument couldn’t reappear in the world.
Of course, she wouldn’t be stupid enough to expose the secret that she got the music score for green stringed instrument because of this pity.
In any case, it was no big deal that a medical book that could cause great changes in a country was ruined.
“But I think that this kind of fake should not affect the overall situation. They at most intend to throw a stone to clear the road. Cousin Chen, I’m actually wondering whether the only way of becoming the chief elder is being his apprentice or possessing the music score for green stringed instrument?”
Lin Mengya point out bluntly and looked towards Zuo Qiuchen with burning eyes.
After freezing for a moment, Zuo Qiuchen generously showed a trace of appreciation in his eyes.
Lin Mengya deserved to be his cousin and was as acute as him.
If it weren’t for her young age and experience less rich than his, now she would probably be able to trick him and Zuo Qiuyu as she wanted.
Anyway Lin Mengya, who was growing quickly, gradually changed her position in Zuo Qiuchen’s heart bit by bit.
She might have been a little sister worthy of his favor before. But in the years to come, she would gradually grow into a trustworthy and reliable companion.
“Hmm, in fact, no matter being an apprentice by direct line or possessing the music score for green stringed instrument, both of them are one of the tokens for inheritance in the situation where the chief elder suddenly passes away. In the current situation where the token is not convincing enough, they will hold a medical competition. However, it’s a very unusual situation. The last medical competition was held fifty years ago. I heard that the theme is the skills of using poison this time.”
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu glanced at each other. If it were a competition for other programs, she could only stand by anxiously.
She involuntarily showed a trace of smile at the corners of her mouth, and this smile was seen by Zuo Qiuchen.
“Yu said that you have excellent medical skills and are especially good at using poison. But unfortunately, you are not a member of the Pavilion of Herbs. According to the rules, you are not allowed to participate in the competition.”
This was also the reason why Zuo Qiuchen felt sorry. He got his aunt’s daughter back with the original intention of arranging one of his companions in the Pavilion of Herbs.
It was a pity that Lin Mengya’s special identity had blocked this way.
After all, the Pavilion of Herbs was the most powerful medical alliance in several countries.
If he took control of the Pavilion of Herbs, he could not only unite the hearts of the people of the Nation of Lintian. The more important thing was that taking control of these top doctors was equivalent to taking control of the lives of numerous influential officials.
The more powerful one was, the more he was afraid of death.
It was a pity, quite a pity.
Hearing that she couldn’t participate in the competition, Lin Mengya didn’t feel depressed.
She had been in limelight recently. Although it was encouraged by Zuo Qiuchen and Zuo Qiuyu, all of her information must have been checked out.
Even if Zuo Qiuchen overrode all objections, the members of the Pavilion of Herbs would probably not agree.
It would be terrible if it made these local members unite against her.
“I don’t intend to participate in this kind of competition. There must be some members of the Pavilion of Herbs working for you. I think if I can help him win the competition and get the position of the chief elder, they can fix my arm incidentally, right?”
Zuo Qiuchen’s eyes lit up, but then became dim again.
The content of the competition was left by the last chief elder.
Everyone knew that this chief elder had no other hobbies but studying the music score for green stringed instrument.
Now the music score for green stringed instrument had been ruined, so there were no shortcuts. Although he did not know about medical books, he knew that they were accumulated through time and experience.
Those he sent to the Pavilion of Herbs were at most thirty years old now.
Compared with the old guys who have been immersed in medical skills for fifty or sixty years, they were definitely juniors.
Even with the help of Lin Mengya…
Nevertheless, Lin Mengya would definitely not do anything without a definite purpose. Could it be that she had a secret weapon?
The little flame of hope burned in Zuo Qiuchen’s eyes again.
Maybe he could give it a shot.
Although it was not the first time that Lin Mengya had been questioned by others, she hadn’t got used to it.
She would definitely argue before.
But now she just felt a little uncomfortable.
“My teacher is Baili Rui known as the Saint of Poison. Although I didn’t spend a long time learning from him, I’m the only one knowing many secrets of his. There are a few people around the world comparable to my teacher in medical skills, but those members of the Pavilion of Herbs may not be as highly skilled as my teacher.”
The current young people might not know the Saint of Poison.
But Zuo Qiuchen was different from them, so he was even more surprised.
“Great, how did I forget it? It’s no wonder that you’ve always detoxicated in a different way!”
Zuo Qiuyu patted his head. He had been tortured a lot by the injury these days.
So he kept feeling dizzy and sleepy and even became slow in reacting.
In the past, he had focused on identifying Lin Mengya’s identity, so he thought that she inherited her excellent medical skills from her family.
However, thinking of it now, he realized that his aunt passed away early, so she couldn’t have become talented without an excellent teacher.
If the Saint of Poison was her teacher, they felt more confident.
“I won’t allow her to get involved in your business.”
Long Tianyu, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke now.
Both Zuo Qiuyu and Zuo Qiuchen didn’t expect that this guy refused it as soon as he talked.
They stared at Long Tianyu with a complex look. Zuo Qiuchen could tell that his little cousin sister seemed to have a good relationship with her husband.
If Long Tianyu insisted on objecting, his little cousin sister would probably not go.
“Why? It’s only possible to cure Mengya of the injury on her shoulder after she gets there. Do you want to see her stay disabled throughout her life?”
Zuo Qiuyu was puzzled and asked angrily.
However, Long Tianyu said slowly after glancing coldly at them.
“Zuo Qiuchen, you said that only the members of your royal family know that Mengya’s mother became the chief elder’s apprentice. However, we were under siege as soon as we arrived at the Nation of Lintian. Obviously Mengya’s identity has been exposed. Even Zuo Qiuyu confirmed Mengya’s identity at the end. In this case, how did others confirm the news?”
He bluntly questioned these two men who had their own purpose.
Long Tianyu managed to figure out Lin Mengya’s identity after spending a lot of manpower, financial resources and material resources inquiring about it.
However, on the night in the apricot blossom forest, he got the secret report from secret guards that they had confirmed that Lin Mengya was the daughter of the inheritor of the music score for green stringed instrument.
Ghost Face was arranged by him indeed, but he didn’t know the identities of those assassins suddenly coming out later.
Moreover, when Lin Mengya came here, Zuo Qiuchen did not doubt anything, but immediately confirmed Lin Mengya’s identity.
Thinking of it at the moment, he found it strange.
He didn’t spend every minute with Lin Mengya these days.
However, both Zuo Qiuchen and Zuo Qiuyu led Lin Mengya to the Pavilion of Herbs intentionally or unintentionally.
Now he finally saw through Zuo Qiuchen’s purpose.
He just wanted to make use of Li Mengya to seize the right of controlling the Pavilion of Herbs.
If what Zuo Qiuchen said was true, the losers of the Pavilion of Herbs would definitely not let Lin Mengya go.
Their lives had been threatened by growing crisis. Now if Lin Mengya stirred up a hornets’ nest, he would always worry about her safety even if he guarded her day and night.
He would rather make her live safely under his protection than push her into that fire pit.
Long Tianyu’s questioning left Zuo Qiuyu speechless.
That was true. He was the one who finally confirmed Lin Mengya’s identity.
But he just sent someone to tell his brother.
Could it be…
Zuo Qiuyu looked towards his brother in distress. Although they had tried every effort to guard against spies, there were spies from other parties showing up around them!
