The night was as dark as ink, the palace walls were high, and only a few lonely lights were swaying in the wind. Lin Qingya was alone in the study, reading the memorials she had recently received. She keenly noticed that many details about local politics in the memorials had been deliberately colored to cover up some key information. She closed her eyes, gently opened her red lips, and used mind reading to probe into the minds of those officials who submitted memorials.

After a moment of dizziness, Lin Qingya suddenly opened her eyes, and a cold light flashed in her eyes. She quickly wrote a few keywords on the paper: "Li Chengqian", "Li Chengze", "minerals", "border". She clearly caught the two people's conspiracy to use the border minerals to embezzle money privately, and used it as a bargaining chip to secretly win over officials in the court, intending to weaken the emperor's power and eventually gain power. What's more, they also planned to take this opportunity to frame her and put her in death row. The cold candlelight reflected her tense face. She bit her lips lightly, and her fingertips tapped the table unconsciously, making a slight "tapping" sound. The study was silent, and the sound of her tapping was particularly clear in the quiet night.

Lin Qingya stood up and walked to the window, staring at the dark night sky, took a deep breath, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth. She did not panic, but calmly began to plan. She quickly wrote a letter, the content of which seemed ordinary, but in fact it was full of mysteries. She did not hand the letter directly to Li Heng, but secretly delivered it through an official who had a good personal relationship with him. The official carefully sealed the letter, wrapped it in a special envelope, and personally delivered it to the imperial study. He gently placed the letter on the desk in the imperial study, and then quietly withdrew, his movements skillful and experienced.

The next morning, Li Heng found the letter in the imperial study. He unfolded the letter and read it carefully, his brows gradually tightened, and a hint of anger and suspicion flashed in his eyes. He glanced at Lin Qingya, but found that she was calm and handled the memorials in an orderly manner, without any abnormality. Li Heng put the letter aside calmly, but he had already made up his mind. Li Heng put down the memorial in his hand, and there was a slight sound on the dragon chair. Li Heng waved his hand, signaling the guards to summon Li Chengqian and Li Chengze. The corners of his lips slightly raised, revealing a playful smile.

At the same time, Li Rui was alone in the study, holding the secret letter about the mysterious organization that Lin Qingya had given him before. He read it over and over again, frowning, and realized that the forces behind it were far greater than he had imagined. He hesitated again and again, and finally decided to tell Lin Qingya about it. Ah Man noticed his uneasiness and asked softly: "My Lord, are you worried about something?" Her tone was gentle and caring, and her bright eyes were full of worry. Li Rui handed the letter to Ah Man, and then said: "This secret... I must tell her..."

Li Heng looked coldly at Li Chengqian and Li Chengze kneeling on the ground and trembling, "How dare you make excuses?"

The golden sunlight poured into the majestic court, dispelling the pre-dawn haze. Lin Qingya, wearing a purple official robe, sat in the courtroom. She was not panicked at all, but instead exuded a calmness and confidence that was hard to ignore. When the morning court began, the ministers were talking to each other in pairs, and the air was filled with a suppressed and tense atmosphere.

Li Chengqian and Li Chengze stood side by side, their faces gloomy, their eyes occasionally secretly glanced at Lin Qingya, with a hint of viciousness in their eyes. Emperor Li Heng sat on the dragon chair, his eyes sharply scanning the ministers, he seemed to be waiting for something.

"Your Majesty," Lin Qingya's voice was clear and loud, and was particularly clear in the silent court. "I have recently found out that the Crown Prince has been secretly colluding with Master Li Chengze to embezzle the national treasury's minerals with the intention of treason!" She paused and looked around. The ministers raised their heads one after another, their faces full of shock and disbelief.

Lin Qingya took out a stack of memorials from her sleeve. Each memorial was stamped with a different official seal, but the contents were surprisingly consistent. "These are ironclad evidence," she said firmly, "enough to prove that the two princes have been plotting for a long time, and their crimes are unforgivable!" Her voice hit the ground with a thud, and every word hit everyone's heart like a heavy hammer. She held the memorial high up, and the sunlight reflected on the cinnabar seal on it, making it particularly eye-catching. In the court, the whispers disappeared instantly, and there was silence.

Li Chengqian stood up suddenly, pointed at Lin Qingya and roared, "Lin Qingya! You are a spitting blood! The evidence is forged!" His voice was sharp and trembling, revealing his inner panic.

"Oh?" Lin Qingya put down the memorial slowly, a sneer on her lips, "Whether the evidence is true or not, I believe your Majesty will make your own judgment. As for the bloody accusation made by the Crown Prince, I am naturally not afraid." She refuted lightly, but her eyes were full of strong confidence and control.

Li Chengze was panicking. He wanted to explain, but found that his throat seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't say a word. He moved his lips nervously, his face pale.

Emperor Li Heng slowly put down the teacup in his hand, making a crisp sound. "Come here, arrest Li Chengqian and Li Chengze!" A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, disappointment and anger. As soon as he finished speaking, several guards rushed forward and took Li Chengqian and Li Chengze, who were already paralyzed on the ground, away.

In the court, after a brief silence, there was a thunderous applause. The ministers praised Lin Qingya for her courage, wisdom and loyalty. They looked at Lin Qingya with admiration and awe. Emperor Li Heng stared at Lin Qingya deeply, and the complex emotions in his eyes became even more intense, as if there was some indescribable emotion. Lin Qingya bowed slightly and responded calmly: "Minister, I am doing my duty." A trace of fatigue flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly covered by the calmness. After returning to the mansion, Lin Qingya leaned back tiredly on the chair and gently rubbed her temples.

The carriage on the way back to the palace was very bumpy, but Lin Qingya didn't feel the slightest bit of discomfort. She closed her eyes and rested, but her mind kept replaying the scenes in the court: Li Chengqian and Li Chengze's panic, the ministers' cheers, and... the complex emotions in Emperor Li Heng's eyes. It was a deep disappointment, mixed with a little... fear?

The carriage stopped, Lin Qingya opened her eyes and told the maid, "Help me back to my room." She stood up a little slowly, with obvious fatigue written on her face. Back in the study, she poured a glass of warm water and drank it slowly, her eyes were unusually clear.

At this moment, an unprecedented feeling surged into her heart, as clear as a revelation. She felt that her insight into people's hearts seemed stronger than ever before. This feeling... was like her mind-reading skills had improved. She could capture other people's emotional fluctuations more clearly, and even glimpse some future fragments, flashing before her eyes like a movie film.

She tried to use this new power, and the first person she thought of was Emperor Li Heng. The picture emerged in her mind: Li Heng was sitting alone in the imperial study, his face was pale, he was coughing up blood, and the imperial doctors were helpless... She clearly saw that the emperor's complexion was getting worse and worse, and his body was being eroded by a chronic disease!

Then, she thought of Li Rui. The scene suddenly changed: Li Rui was besieged by a group of men in black on a remote street, with swords flashing and sabers flying... Danger! She clearly sensed the murderous intent approaching Li Rui!

Lin Qingya's heart sank, but she quickly regained her composure. This sudden power shocked and delighted her. This meant that she could foresee danger more effectively and thus better protect herself and those around her. She stroked her chest, feeling the power surging in her body, and a confident smile slowly spread across her lips.

She quickly devised a plan and decided to use her newfound abilities to resolve the crisis. First, she would inform the imperial physician of the emperor's condition, so that at least Li Heng's physical condition would improve and the government would be stabilized. Second, she would secretly protect Li Rui and use some means to ensure his safety. As for those who intended to rebel, humph, she would make them pay the corresponding price!

Lin Qingya picked up the wolf-hair brush and wrote a few words on the paper: "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed, but human life is at stake." She looked at these words with a firm look in her eyes.

Afterwards, Lin Qingya told her personal maid Alan: "Go and ask the imperial physician Zhang Shen to come over, and tell him that I have something important to discuss with you." After that, she picked up the piece of paper with the words "The secret cannot be revealed, but human life is at stake" and gently burned it. The ashes were blown away by the wind in the early sunlight outside the window.
