Chapter 631 She Suddenly Confessed Her Love for Him
A grand banquet where both guests and hosts enjoyed themselves ended in praise of Imperial Noble Consort Dehui.
Lin Mengya was extremely well-behaved and worked hard to perfectly serve as a qualified royal daughter-in-law under the brilliance of Imperial Noble Consort Dehui.
She was the proponent of the charity auction, so she naturally became the person in charge of this activity.
An event with such publicity certainly made Lin Mengya the object of everyone’s flattery.
However, she had always been very cautious and humble, and the praise of others could not arouse any negative effects of pride for her.
Thus she became even be more successful in getting everyone’s love.
At least, that was what it looked like.
“Yu’er, Lin Mengya, thank you for your hard work today.”
In the main palace room of carved beams and painted rafters, Imperial Noble Consort Dehui sat on the rosewood chaise longue, and her eyes were filled with tears.
Even with a pair of teary eyes, she still looked very noble and elegant against the exquisite headdress.
The former Concubine De was now Imperial Noble Consort Dehui, and her status was naturally different.
The burnt Jinxiu Palace was already uninhabitable. Fortunately, His Majesty had already prepared for it, so she was granted Yuanxi Palace not far from the Jinxiu Palace. Long Tianyu and Lin Mengya also followed the Imperial Noble Consort Dehui and went to the main hall of Yuanxi Palace together.
“I have not congratulated you for getting out of trouble after waiting for so long.” Lin Mengya knelt down quietly, and finally put on the sincerest smile.
The smirk that night had made her face cramp.
Actually, since the night of the showdown with Jingyue, the woman in the side chamber of the Jinxiu Palace had been replaced by Jingyue.
So the woman who had been burned to death tonight was the wicked maid.
It was just that Lin Mengya had tried her best to make her talk before Jingyue went to die.
With the cooperation of His Majesty, she was able to ensure that she would successfully rescue Imperial Noble Consort Dehui.
“Oh, you two… actually, you didn’t have to hurry. With Liang’er taking care of me in secret, I didn’t have to worry about my life for a while. You are so reckless. What would you do if the Empress did something?”
Imperial Noble Consort Dehui was pleased, but she was even more worried about the safety of her husband and son.
Long Tianyu smiled. He was about to explain when he suddenly heard the announcement of the royal servant.
“Here arrives His Majesty—”
Looking at Lin Mengya, Long Tianyu felt a little surprised.
His father should be dealing with government affairs now. Even if he was coming to his mother’s palace, he should come later.
“Why did he come here now?”
Before he could figure it out, the emperor dressed in bright yellow appeared in front of the three of them.
Imperial Noble Consort Dehui immediately got up and greeted him with a smile. After they met, the emperor and the Imperial Noble Consort sat in the seats of honor.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu were standing obediently and they didn’t dare to speak.
The emperor’s serious eyes became loving. He looked at his son with satisfaction and then turned his attention to his daughter-in-law.
A complex expression flashed in his eyes, but none of the three people present could find the deep meaning in his eyes.
“Take a seat. After a lively day, we finally have time to get together. Ning’er, you have suffered. I’m sorry.”
Now, he was not the supreme monarch in the throne room. He was now just an ordinary man who was reunited with his beloved woman and child.
Lin Mengya felt that she was a little redundant. After all, they were a family, and she was an outsider.
When she just wanted to excuse herself, Long Tianyu secretly grabbed her little hand.
“Father, may I ask for a favor?”
Suddenly, Long Tianyu knelt in front of the emperor and Lin Mengya was even more surprised, not knowing what he was asking for.
The emperor looked thoughtful. He narrowed his eyes and looked at his son calmly.
“What’s the matter?”
Long Tianyu raised his head, and there was unquestionable determination in his eyes that looked similar to his father. “Father, please allow me not to take concubines or co-consorts in the future. I will have Lin Mengya as my only wife in my life.”
His request stunned Lin Mengya, and also made the emperor and Imperial Noble Consort Dehui look intently at their son, who was serious and determined.
“Yu’er, I know you and Lin Mengya love each other, but—”
The Imperial Noble Consort was a little anxious when she was trying to persuade him that Lin Mengya was indeed a qualified wife, and as a princess, she would probably make an excellent empress whether in ability or appearance, family background, etc.
It was just that Yu’er would be more than just a prince in the future. But if he wanted to go any further, marrying the daughters of powerful families would be the most effective and concise way to balance various forces.
Of course, she liked her daughter-in-law, but for Lin Mengya, it was not necessarily a good thing to be the only woman of a prince.
“You are joking!”
The emperor had not expected that Long Tianyu would make such a presumptuous request at this time.
He reprimanded Long Tianyu, but Long Tianyu didn’t change his mind. Instead, he looked straight at his father with more determined eyes.
“I’m not joking. I don’t want what happened to my mother to happen to my wife. If I can’t protect her well, I would rather give up everything!”
After he said it, the emperor was more than angry.
The emperor’s eyes regained their majesty, and he looked at his son and daughter-in-law seriously. Since when did his most outstanding son become a mediocre man who would be trapped by love?
“Long Tianyu, remember your identity! Romantic love will only destroy you in the end! Lin Mengya is your wife, and no one can unseat her with Lin family and me around. Or are you trying to blame me for what happened to your mother?”
The emperor’s angry voice made Imperial Noble Consort Dehui’s heart tremble.
Her beloved husband was the most powerful man in Jin State. But now, she was afraid that her son’s stubbornness had infuriated His Majesty.
Her face softened, and she wanted to mediate the dispute. But she did not expect that the one who acted more quickly than her was Lin Mengya who had been standing next to Long Tianyu.
“Your Majesty, please calm down. In fact, Prince Yu was just empathizing with his mother. Your Majesty, please don’t blame my husband for his love for his mother.”
Kneeling on the ground gracefully, Lin Mengya’s voice was gentle and elegant, and it miraculously alleviated the tense atmosphere between the father and son.
She slowly but firmly held Long Tianyu’s hand back and smiled with gentle eyes under his puzzled gaze.
“Is that true?” His Majesty glanced suspiciously at his son.
Finally, the stubborn and arrogant man, who was as stubborn as ice, gradually calmed down.
He looked at Lin Mengya and finally nodded his head.
“That’s good, Yu’er. As for what happened to your mother, it was my negligence, so they could take advantage of it to hurt her. You have to understand the responsibility on your shoulders, and don’t disappoint your mother and me.”
Fortunately, he was still his good son and a venerable and cold prince who could not be trapped by his emotions and desires.
Only in this way, his empire would not fall into the hands of others.
“Yes, excuse me.”
A confrontation disappeared in Lin Mengya’s calm and gentleness.
Long Tianyu, though unwilling, had to back down because of Lin Mengya’s suggestion.
Their hands clasped tightly between the loose sleeves and never separated.
Leaving the gorgeous palace, Lin Mengya put on a smile on her face and walked briskly, and she looked like a deer who had escaped the cage.
Long Tianyu watched her brisk footsteps silently with doting eyes. Even though she was wearing a precious and heavy palace costume, but her cheerful appearance couldn’t be restrained even by this palace costume.
Even if the crown on her head was a bit crooked, Lin Mengya was still smiling, as if she had drunk a jar of fine wine.
“What’s happening?”
Long Tianyu grabbed Lin Mengya who had almost fallen to the side of the road and looked at her who was so happy now like a doting parent.
“It’s okay, I just feel very happy, so happy. Long Tianyu, I love you!”
Her sudden confession made Long Tianyu stunned on the spot. For a long time, he had thought that his feelings for her were more profound.
She was so perfect, while he had nothing that could match her except his identity. However, he had not expected that she would first confess her feelings for him. Long Tianyu, who had always been insensitive to a romantic relationship, opened his mouth but was too shy and afraid to respond to her boldness.
“I’m leaving first. Come back early after you handle it.” Lin Mengya blushed, and she was also stunned by her boldness.
God! What about the subtlety of being a woman? How about reserved? She had forgotten it at that moment.
But, seeing Long Tianyu’s braveness and determination in front of his father, her whole heart was about to jump out.
Before this, she had been a little worried that Long Tianyu would hesitate before power. She hadn’t expected that Long Tianyu would bravely confront the emperor for her.
She was beaming with joy but felt that her happiness did not need a guarantee from an imperial decree. Even if Long Tianyu would ascend the throne in the future, she also could guard her unique happiness.
Long Tianyu walked Lin Mengya to the gate of the imperial palace. At this time, Hongyu led the four girls and was already waiting in the carriage of Prince Yu’s Mansion. It was just a temporary farewell, yet Lin Mengya was so reluctant to say goodbye to Long Tianyu.
Only Hongyu could see the endless love between the couple. With her hands covering her lips, Hongyu looked at her master and the prince with an ambiguous smile on her face.
It seemed that from now on, the four of them finally wouldn’t have to worry about whether their master had a problem with the prince before they could share the bridal chamber.
