Chapter 757 Getting Deeper
Suddenly, she thought of Baozhu, who had been diagnosed by Yu Minglu and found that the tendons and bones in her left hand were broken, and then had been taught by Chang'an to reconnect the tendons and bones. She was just waiting for a hundred days of rest before she could be full of energy again.
As she thought about it, she became a little dazed.
She never expected that the maids around her eldest niece were more powerful than the other.
First, there is Shangchun, who is the most powerful and versatile maid beside my mother-in-law, then there is Feng Zheng, who is very skilled in martial arts, and then there is Chang'an, who is not only good at martial arts but also good at medicine. It is no exaggeration to say that there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers around my niece.
The kite was carried and placed outside the gate of the Meng Mansion. Not long after, someone was ordered to wait around the Meng Mansion and report to Ji Kuan as soon as Meng Shisan went out, following Baisha who was protecting him secretly.
When Ji Kuan reported this to Li Shou, Meng Renping was also there.
Meng Renping stood up and was about to go to the palace, but Li Shou stopped him and said, "If nothing happened to Yaoyao, why are you going there?"
"Yaoyao cares a lot about the people around her. Feng Zheng was seriously injured when she was doing things for Yaoyao, and was carried to the gate of Meng Mansion by unknown people..." Meng Renping turned around and reported, and continued after taking a breath, "Although Baisha saw someone, he has not determined his identity, and he still needs to investigate. Yaoyao knows about this matter, and she must investigate it. Yaoyao has too many things on her hands, and she can't leave the mansion at will. As far as I know, Feng Zheng was ordered by Yaoyao to thoroughly investigate the collapse of the lantern mountain in Bixu Manor on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The accident is definitely related to this incident. And Yaoyao was assassinated in the night attack, which is also related to the black hand behind this incident!"
The implication is that Li Heng was able to use such a heavy hand on Feng Zheng because the first assassination attempt failed to kill Meng Shisan, and he was planning a second assassination. However, due to the double secret protection of the East Palace guards and the Meng Mansion guards, Li Heng was unable to find an opportunity for the second assassination, so he turned around and killed Feng Zheng.
As for why Feng Zheng was spared and sent out of the Meng Mansion instead of being killed, the reason was probably to warn Meng Shisan not to cause any more trouble.
What he can think of, his eldest cousin, with her intelligence, can certainly think of as well.
The eldest cousin thought that with his intolerable bandit style, he must be thinking about how to kill the second prince while investigating him!
Li Shou stood up and walked towards Meng Renping. "Yaoyao is not only accompanied by Feng Zheng Huiwu, but also Chang'an. Based on my understanding of Chang'an and Yaoyao's confession to me about Chang'an's abilities, I think Yaoyao would not act rashly if she really wanted to kill someone. She would definitely have some plans. You don't have to worry about leaving the palace now. Wait for the news from Baisha to come back. Once you return home, you can tell Yaoyao about the person who carried Feng Zheng back to the gate of Meng's house."
Ji Kuan agreed, "Yes, Chi Nan, calm down. Bai Sha will go check. I think there will be news soon. Bai Zhuo will stand guard outside the Meng residence in Bai Sha's place. If Miss Meng really goes out, Bai Zhuo will definitely bring people to follow and protect her. You don't need to worry about her safety."
Meng Renping was persuaded, but he did not go back to sit behind the table. He walked around the hall a little anxiously.
Li Shou let Meng Renping go and returned to the main seat, continuing to look at the memorial that had just been presented today.
Ji Kuan and Chang Qing stood together, waiting quietly, looking at Li Shou and then at Meng Renping, feeling that something big was probably going to happen.
After a moment, Chang Qing nudged Ji Kuan with his elbow. Ji Kuan looked at him in confusion. He then signaled Ji Kuan with his eyes to look at the main desk.
Ji Kuan looked in the direction he was going and saw a fresh memorial that had just been submitted today, which discussed whether the magistrate of Fangshan should be replaced by another official as he was seriously ill.
He just followed the direction of the reading, and failed to understand what Chang Qing wanted him to read in the first few breaths, until he noticed that although Li Shou's eyes were on the unfolded memorial, their crown prince had not turned the page for a long time.
The memorial was written in several pages. Their Highness had been reading it for a long time and was still reading the first page.
This is a trance.
He then looked at his best friend who was still walking around in the hall, and secretly said in his heart, "Ms. Meng, with just one move, can make His Highness and Chi Nan feel uneasy. She is really powerful."
"Your Highness." Chang Qing originally wanted Ji Kuan to speak, but after he reminded Ji Kuan, he looked at Meng Renping who was turning around without realizing it. So he had to speak softly himself.
When Li Shou heard Chang Qing's gentle call, he paused with his pen, and a tiny drop of deep red cinnabar fell, dyeing the two words "Shi Que" on the memorial paper red.
"This..." Chang Qing wanted to step forward to deal with it.
"No problem." Li Shou waved his hand, put down his pen, and closed the paper. "Fu Feng, go and see if Baisha has come back, so that Chi Nan won't be so anxious."
"Yes." Ji Kuan thought to himself that Chi Nan was not the only one who was anxious, Your Highness was also very nervous.
Li Shou was indeed nervous. Just after listening to Meng Renping's words, he realized belatedly how Meng Shisan treated the people around her. He always thought that she was the same as him. The people around her, whether they knew martial arts or not, were just servants and guards.
However, according to what Chi Nan said, what she felt was not what he felt.
It seems that his understanding of her is far from enough.
There is nothing we can do about this.
After all, Li Shou is the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace and the current Wei Dynasty. Every time he leaves the palace, he has to mobilize a large number of troops. No matter how simple it appears on the surface, there are always teams of guards following him secretly.
Only when Li Shou went to Lueyang secretly, for the sake of confidentiality, Fang ordered only the Imperial Shadow Guards and a few Eastern Palace guards to follow him, so as to achieve the goal of not attracting attention and leaving the capital smoothly.
Apart from this, he rarely had the chance to leave the palace.
Even when he went to the Xuanyuan Terrace of the Meng Mansion to sit in meditation and remember the late Empress Meng, he only did so once or twice a month, and he always went there and came back quickly, rarely going anywhere outside the Meng Mansion.
It was Emperor Zong's request, and it was also for his own safety.
Ever since Meng Shisan's evil spirit came all the way from Jinling to the capital and occupied the body of the original owner Meng Liangchen, in order to find a backer, he deliberately showed off his skills in front of Li Shou to fish. Since then, he has stayed in the Meng Mansion for a longer time. Since then, apart from the Meng Mansion and other necessary places, he has gone to many places that he would not have gone to before.
And all of those places were because of the eldest cousin from the Meng family who suddenly caught his eyes, touched his heart, and made him involuntarily cast his eyes towards her.
Despite this, he rarely had the opportunity to spend time with her, talk with her, and deepen their understanding of each other.
He and she seemed to have reached no consensus on this.
He gradually came to think of her as the future Crown Princess he was going to marry, but she always just regarded him as her superior cousin. Even on those rare occasions when she took the initiative to please him, he always felt that she was trying to please a backer.
This feeling becomes stronger day by day.
Suddenly, she thought of Baozhu, who had been diagnosed by Yu Minglu and found that the tendons and bones in her left hand were broken, and then had been taught by Chang'an to reconnect the tendons and bones. She was just waiting for a hundred days of rest before she could be full of energy again.
