The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 1010 Not Without Authorization

Li Shou was unwilling to return to the palace immediately to treat his injuries. Helpless, Meng Shisan asked Chang Qing to go to the Imperial Hospital to invite Yu Minglu to the small bookstore.

A large Buddha statue appeared in the shop, and the shop owner was unaware of it until much later, and even more so, filled with fear and dread.

Fortunately, after Ji Kuan took over the bookstore with the palace guards, he didn't have to do anything. He just had to stay behind the counter and wait quietly.

The bookstore was small, so all the guards had to stand guard outside, forming a row in front of the door, looking just like fierce door gods.

Yu Minglu examined Li Shou's back injury in the shop, Cang Shu assisted Yu Minglu, and Chang Qing helped him take off and put on his clothes. Meng Shisan felt that they should leave, so he and Ji Kuan went outside the shop.

Ji Kuan seemed to have something to say, but also seemed to have some reservations. He looked at Meng Shisan twice but didn't say anything.

Meng Shisan didn't take it to heart, but she had something to ask him: "My elder brother and Young Master Ji grew up together, were both His Highness's study companions, and served His Highness in the same way. Were all the words Young Master Ji said to my elder brother for my brother's own good?"

"What do you mean by that?" Ji Kuan was taken aback, not knowing where this came from.

Meng Shisan said, "My elder brother is very concerned about my marriage."

“Uh…” Ji Kuan recalled the heartfelt words he had spoken to Meng Renping.

Meng Shisan added, "I don't actually need anyone to worry about my marriage."

Upon hearing this, Ji Kuan understood: "...I was being nosy."

He was originally trying to harm himself, but to his surprise, Meng Shisan nodded, which made him widen his eyes.

Meng Shisan smiled and said, "Everyone has their own opportunities. No one can interfere with or try to control someone else's opportunities. Otherwise, it will backfire and make things worse."

Finally, she added, "Besides, when it comes to marriage, neither you nor my elder brother are married yet, so you should be the ones worrying about yourselves first."

"Why are you urging us now?" Ji Kuan laughed. "Alright, I know. My younger sister speaks highly of you. If you have time, you are welcome to visit us."

"What does Young Master Ji want me to help with?" Meng Shisan was perceptive and quickly realized the hidden meaning behind Ji Kuan's invitation for her to visit the Ji residence.

Ji Kuan sighed, “My younger sister is different from you. She wants to get married, but she has encountered great difficulties in finding a husband. She has met many men, but each time it has not worked out. As her older brother, even though I want to comfort her, I don’t know what to say to truly reassure her. You are different. As a fellow mother, it is easier for you to say many things. Most importantly, Yin Yin is willing to listen to you.”

Meng Shisan nodded: "Okay. But I can't guarantee whether I can help."

"Of course." Ji Kuan clasped his hands. "Thanks."

"Does Young Master Ji have someone in mind who would be suitable for Yin Yin?" Meng Shisan asked.

Ji Kuan was slightly surprised: "Why do you say that?"

"You specifically mentioned Yin Yin's marriage to me, and spoke of its difficulties, wanting me to come to your residence to persuade and comfort Yin Yin. You even said that Yin Yin is willing to listen to me," Meng Shisan analyzed. "You spoke with such certainty, so you must have something on your mind. In that case, why not just say it?"

Ji Kuan admitted, "How can it be straightforward?"

"Doctor He?" Meng Shisan remembered that He Yizhi had once been on a blind date with Ji Ling. "What's the deal between Yinyin and Doctor Yu?"

"At first glance, neither of us said much, but we both wanted to see how things went," Ji Kuan frankly admitted. "But later, we drifted further and further apart."

"Who is unwilling? Or are they all unwilling?" Meng Shisan needs to understand the root of the problem before he can find a solution.

"There's nothing wrong with Physician He," Ji Kuan said.

“The problem lies with Yinyin.” Meng Shisan understood: “Okay, I understand, I will try my best.”

"Then when..." "What's the rush?"

Ji Kuan had just started to ask about the date of Meng Shisan's arrival at the mansion so he could prepare some tea and snacks that the young ladies would like to have and properly entertain Meng Shisan, but before he could even get started, Meng Shisan impatiently interrupted him.

She turned around and went into the bookstore.

Ji Kuan looked at Meng Shisan's beautiful figure and said, "Only His Highness can tolerate this temper."

A few breaths later, another person was added: "And Chi Nan."

After muttering to himself, he thought of his two younger sisters in his household, and as the eldest brother, he felt relieved. But when he thought of his own loneliness and his mother's constant nagging in his ear, his head began to ache.

Li Shou was hit in the back, and it was quite a heavy blow. After all, the shop owner was still hanging on the wooden ladder at that time. The weight of an extra person, plus the weight of the wooden ladder, made the fall quite heavy.

But the injury wasn't that serious.

However, the Crown Prince's status could not be easily ignored, so the imperial physician and the Crown Prince's guards were summoned.

Meng Shisan walked up to Li Shou, who had already examined his injuries and was dressed neatly. She asked Yu Minglu, "How is Your Highness?"

"Your Highness is fine, just a minor external injury. Apply some medicine to reduce the swelling and bruising, and just be careful not to bump it again, and you'll be alright." Yu Minglu was writing a medical record when he heard Meng Shisan's question, so he stood up and answered politely.

"No need to take the herbal medicine?" Meng Shisan asked again.

Yu Minglu said, "No need."

Meng Shisan looked at Li Shou, who said, "I told you long ago, it's alright."

"Does Your Highness have a problem with me sending Chang Qing to invite Physician Yu without my permission?" Meng Shisan asked earnestly.

"No objection." Li Shou was overjoyed to see Meng Shisan's concern for him, so he had no objection at all. However, some things still needed to be considered carefully. "You didn't make the arrangement on your own; I agree to it."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Chang Qing, Yu Minglu, and Ji Kuan, who followed Meng Shisan into the store.

The three of them clasped their hands in unison and said, "Yes, sir."

Your Highness is trying to accommodate the many matters that Miss Meng arranged in her haste, disregarding Your Highness's wishes, in order to avoid gossip and unnecessary trouble for Miss Meng from being accused of insubordination.

Especially given that His Majesty does not favor Miss Meng as the future Crown Princess, this precaution is all the more necessary.

They were not fools, and being part of the Eastern Palace's camp, they immediately understood Li Shou's implied meaning.

When Meng Shisan saw the three of them bow and acknowledge him, he was a beat slow to react, and then looked at Li Shou—this was the one in a superior position.

From the grand scale of the nation to the smallest detail, everything must be planned comprehensively and meticulously, leaving no room for any potential unknown troubles.

His thoughtful consideration at that moment was to protect her.

Even though her impetuous behavior today might have led to her acting aggressively and being manipulated as an insubordination in the future, he skillfully prevented this for her at this moment.

Correct her.

It also refers to those who were present and knew the situation.

Seeing that Meng Shisan was looking at him without saying a word, Li Shou assumed that he was frightened by what he had just said: "There is no need to worry. With me here, no one can blame you."
