Chapter 190 Very cooperative

Lin Mowan gave the instructions, and Yuzhi did not ask any more questions. She just turned around and went to the kitchen, brought some snacks, and changed a pot of hot tea.

Just as Lin Mowan had guessed, she was eating the last piece of dessert when a group of people dressed as ordinary guards broke into the yard.

The leading man was tall and strong. Although he was wearing ordinary guard's clothes, the scimitar on his waist and the gold-plated totem on the scabbard had already betrayed his identity as a royal guard.

In just a blink of an eye, the gate was kicked open, and countless guards in plain clothes poured into the yard, surrounding the originally spacious yard.

Yuzhi, several servants and the secret guards hiding in the dark were about to show up, but Lin Mowan just moved her fingers slightly on the table beside her. The people hiding in the dark understood instantly, and the secret guards who were ready to move just now did not dare to show up easily.

"Are you Lin Mowan?" The leading man looked at Lin Mowan, who was sitting on the chair and drinking tea calmly, with a puzzled and vigilant look, and there was a hint of suspicion in his tone.

No matter how you look at her, she looks like an ordinary girl, but even with so many people rushing in, she doesn't seem panicked at all, which seems to be something more than just a simple girl.

Lin Mowan nodded gently, looking up at him slightly, soothing the slightly frightened little Sanhua in her hands, and smiled gently at the man: "I am, sir, is there anything wrong?"

Looking at the bright and innocent smile of the girl in front of him, the man's expression froze for a moment, and he even reflected on whether his momentum when he led the team to score the goal just now was a bit too exaggerated.

His gaze relaxed a little, and when he spoke again, his tone was much calmer: "Miss Lin, I'm sorry to offend you, but you must come with us. If you are unwilling..."

He paused, and his momentum suddenly became fierce, but Lin Mowan did not give him a chance to attack. She still smiled and nodded, and replied: "Okay."

The man was prepared to be rejected and wanted to be kidnapped by force, but he didn't expect Lin Mowan to agree so readily. He was stunned for a moment.

Lin Mowan didn't care about that. She slowly stood up, turned around and called out to the side: "Yuzhi."

Yuzhi came out after hearing the voice, her eyes showing some worry, but Lin Mowan gave her a comforting smile, handed her the Sanhua in her hand, and gently reminded her: "This little guy ate too much at noon, so you have to feed him less at night."

Yuzhi took the cat, held it carefully, and stepped aside.

Lin Mowan walked up to the leader of the Imperial Guards, still smiling gently and sweetly, "Let's go, sir."

Before the leading guard could react, Lin Mowan had already walked out of the courtyard gate. He quickly turned around and followed her, but seemed to be thinking about something.

When he chased out, Lin Mowan was about to get on the carriage. For some reason, he suddenly said, "My name is Deng Yu."

Lin Mowan was stunned and stopped on the stepping stool. She subconsciously turned to look at him, but he didn't say anything. There was only a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

Maybe he told her his name just to let her know that he was not a bad person and would not do anything to her. He was just following orders and escorted her into the palace safely because he didn't want her to be scared.

While thinking, Lin Mowan smiled and said, "Yes, Lord Deng." After she finished speaking, she got on the carriage, still without any intention of resisting.

As the sun sets, a horse-drawn carriage slowly drives along the street where the crowds are gradually receding. Lin Mowan sits in the carriage, and all she hears is the rumbling sound of the carriage.

She closed her eyes, resting her mind and concentrating her energy for the battle coming up.

The carriage slowly drove into the palace and passed through a long corridor. The surroundings became even quieter and even the chirping of birds and insects could no longer be heard.

Lin Mowan slowly opened her eyes. The car hadn't stopped yet, and through the fluttering curtains, she could see the red palace walls outside. She felt inexplicably depressed.

Until the carriage stopped, Deng Yu's voice came from outside the carriage: "Miss Lin, we are here." Lin Mowan got up and got off the carriage. Standing at the end of the corridor, Deng Yu glanced at the waiting maid standing by the side and said, "Miss, the carriage can't go in anymore. You have to follow the maid to the Queen Mother's Palace."

Lin Mowan smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Master Deng."

She turned around and looked at the nanny beside her, and it turned out to be an acquaintance, Nanny Cen who was beside Gongshu Tingyue.

Deng Yu led the carriage back. Nanny Cen looked at her, and the previous politeness and humility were no longer in her eyes. She raised her chin slightly, as if she was superior to Lin Mowan.

"Miss Lin." Nanny Cen spoke in a tone that was not to be disobeyed: "Please follow me, but don't take the wrong path."

As she spoke, she snorted disdainfully, turned around and walked ahead. Her arrogance seemed to have already seen that Lin Mowan would end up in a miserable state.

It is not certain who will die a miserable death. The more arrogant the person is, the more miserable the death will be.

I followed Nanny Cen all the way to the Empress Dowager's bedroom, and passed by the palace maids from the same palace. They lowered their heads and walked in silence from the wide avenue to the pebbled path, and finally up the stairs.

The door of the main hall was open. Lin Mowan followed Nanny Cen into the inner room. The empress dowager was the only one in the hall. She was leaning on the couch, with one hand on her temple and her eyes closed. It was unclear whether she was resting or asleep.

Nanny Cen brought Lin Mowan in, greeted her respectfully and left. In the huge hall, only Lin Mowan and the empress dowager leaning on the phoenix couch were left.

Lin Mowan raised her eyes to look at her, then calmly lowered her eyes, lifted her clothes and knelt down: "I am Lin Mowan, a commoner, and I pay my respects to the Queen Mother. I wish the Queen Mother good health."

After the words were spoken, there was dead silence all around. The words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, creating no big waves before returning to calm again.

Originally, Lin Mowan was not sure whether she was asleep or not, so the sound of greeting was not small, but she still did not respond. There were only two possibilities, either she was dead, or he deliberately wanted to intimidate Lin Mowan.

Obviously, the possibility of the former is smaller, so it is the latter. Lin Mowan is not in a hurry. Since the empress dowager didn't speak, she just knelt quietly.

After a long time, perhaps because there was no movement, the woman sitting on the upper seat slowly raised her eyelids and looked at Lin Mowan with contempt. She was a little careless at first, but the moment she saw Lin Mowan, her expression froze, and her eyes suddenly became terrified as if she had seen a ghost, and she almost couldn't control her expression.

Lin Mowan lowered her eyes, not noticing anything, just waiting for her decision. The empress dowager sat up, blinked in disbelief, and fixed her eyes on her face.

"Look up," she said.

Lin Mowan did as she was told. When the empress dowager saw Lin Mowan's appearance clearly, she took a deep breath and her face turned pale.

Lin Mowan was puzzled: "My lady?"

Hearing Lin Mowan's voice, the empress dowager suddenly came back to her senses, quickly cleared her throat, and restored her previous majesty. She frowned, but this time there was a hint of vigilance and confusion in her eyes.

"Your name is Lin Mowan?" asked the Queen Mother.

Lin Mowan nodded. The old lady didn't look like she was hard of hearing. She became more suspicious.

The Queen Mother frowned, and no one knew what she was thinking. She hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "What is your relationship with the former Admiral Lin?"

It's the end of the month! I wonder if I will have the honor to receive votes from you guys again (crazy hinting)
