The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 1013 Crooked and Right
After enjoying the spring scenery, she went off to do her own chores. She didn't notice that the two leaves of the camellia were occasionally brushing against each other, and that she was flipping through the thick books placed in front of the camellia.

The speed at which it flipped was as fast as lightning, dazzling to behold.

At this moment, the silver fox carried the little earthworm into Mingxiao Hall.

Baozhu was flipping through a book when she looked up and exclaimed, "Huh? Little Silver and Little White are here too?"

Hearing the noise, Meng Shisan didn't even look up, focusing intently on the history book in his hands.

The silver fox and the little earthworm didn't mind. They came on their own. Meng Shisan didn't chase them away, so they were allowed to come.

However, since Meng Shisan was busy, they didn't go near to disturb him. They knew very well that if they bothered Meng Shisan, they would get beaten up.

Given their current strength, they can neither win nor dare to fight back.

After Baozhu finished speaking, Shangchun returned, carrying a wooden bucket. She didn't need to get up to look; she knew the bucket contained fresh meat.

It's for the silver fox to eat.

The small earthworm also eats, but very little; most of the time it prefers to burrow in the red soil near the back enclosure.

"I searched all around but couldn't find Xiao Yin. It was Chai Yu who told me that Xiao Yin had brought Xiao Bai to Mingxiao Hall." Shang Chun and Meng Shisan explained, "I had no choice but to go back around."

Meng Shisan closed the history book she had just finished reading, but couldn't find anything relevant. Her mood was slightly down: "Don't run around during mealtimes in the future. Enjoying spring is quite busy, and I don't have time to look for you all over the yard."

She spoke up for Sang-chun, who was so worried about Tae-jin-won.

Xiao Yin was raised by her and was given to her by Li Zhaoqin. It had quite a background, and no one dared to bully it in her care, but that didn't mean it could increase other people's work.

"It's alright." Shangchun was very happy that her young lady would speak up for her. She was also happy that the silver fox only wanted her to feed it. Even though she often had to search all over the courtyard for the silver fox, she didn't find it troublesome.

"Don't spoil it." Meng Shisan reached for another history book that was closest to him and began to flip through it.

"Chirp." The silver fox could speak human language, but with Shang Chun and Baozhu, two mortals, present, it could only chirp once to indicate that it understood.

While the silver fox was being fed by Shang Chun, the little cricket climbed off the silver fox's back and slowly crawled towards the table leg where Meng Shisan was. It then slowly climbed up the table leg and onto the tabletop.

It grew very quickly, and now it's as long as Meng Shisan's arm and as fat as a big white steamed bun. It huffed and puffed as it climbed onto the table, coiling itself up like a round white jade belt.

Meng Shisan glanced at the little earthworm and thought it was quite well-behaved, so he reached out and touched its smooth head.

The little earthworm squinted its eyes contentedly.

"Only Miss could raise crickets to be so plump and beautiful," Baozhu said.

Upon hearing the word "fat and delicious," the little earthworm had a bad feeling and turned its head to look at the pearl.

Baozhu had only said it casually and without thinking, but noticing the little cricket staring at her, she added, "It's not what you think!"

Meng Shisan burst out laughing: "Nobody's going to eat you."

It doesn't taste good, and no one dares to eat it.

No one is allowed to touch her pet.

The little earthworm was relieved and turned its round head back.

Shang Chun chimed in, "It's truly amazing. All the creatures that Miss raises, no matter what kind they are, are all intelligent and can understand human speech."

“This isn’t the only miraculous thing that has happened to Miss,” Baozhu replied while flipping through a book. Shangchun hummed in agreement, thinking of the Second Prince Li Heng’s death—it wasn’t just miraculous, it was practically a blessing from heaven.

Just like appreciating spring, Baozhu's words also reminded Meng Shisan of Li Heng's death.

Looking back now, ever since the Second Prince's unexpected death, apart from Empress Lu's outburst in the Imperial Study, all the big and small devils under Li Heng's camp were suppressed by Li Shou's thunderous methods and were unable to move an inch. The current emperor has also been surprisingly lenient with them.

Meng Shisan asked Shang Chun, "The Second Prince's case was previously handed over to the Ministry of Justice for trial, and it was closed as an accident. When it was transferred to the Court of Judicial Review, were there any objections?"

She initially entrusted this matter to Shangchun and Gaojin to follow up together.

Silver Fox ate quickly. After Shang Chun finished feeding him the last piece of fresh meat, he stood up and replied, "No, everything is perfectly calm."

"Calm and peaceful..." Meng Shisan turned a page, glancing at the records between the lines of the book, "The Lu family is also calm and peaceful?"

“Gao Jin said that during the time he was watching the Lu residence, he did not see the Lu residence take any action in this regard,” Shang Chun replied.

"After you returned from Fangshan, did you ask Gao Jin to do anything?" Meng Shisan wanted to find out indirectly whether Meng Renping had helped Li Shou in pruning the remaining branches of Li Heng.

Shangchun shook her head: "No, after I told Gao Jin about the things that Miss asked me to do, Gao Jin was ordered by the eldest young master to do his best to help me do the things Miss asked me to do."

That meant that without his elder brother's help, His Highness handled the remnants of the Second Prince with ease, and Meng Shisan did not ask any further questions.

But as soon as she finished the conversation, she looked down and saw the little cricket munching on a page of the book next to it, eating with great gusto.

Her eyes narrowed, and she raised her hand to slap the eel's slippery head: "Don't bite! Spit it out!"

The little earthworm felt wronged, but it still obediently spat out the small pieces of paper it had eaten.

It spat out little by little, and Meng Shisan's eyebrows furrowed little by little.

Shangchun and Baozhu, hearing the commotion, also came over.

Baozhu: "Why are you eating paper?"

Enjoying the Spring: "Luckily, we discovered it early, so we didn't eat much."

Then one person went to see what was written on the page that had been bitten, while the other rummaged through the scraps of paper to see what was written on them.

Meng Shisan picked up the mischievous little eel, looking disgusted: "Paper isn't edible. If you get a stomachache, I won't be responsible. Also, if you eat the records I'm looking for, you won't be able to see them even if you spit them out..."

"Miss!" Baozhu exclaimed suddenly as she rummaged through the shredded paper, carefully examining its contents.

Meng Shisan looked up and stared straight at Baozhu, wondering to himself, "Could it be such a coincidence?"
While enjoying the spring scenery, he also looked at Baozhu.

Even the silver fox walked to the table, stood at Meng Shisan's feet, and looked up at the shredded paper in Baozhu's hand.

Baozhu held one of the scraps of paper in her hand to Meng Shisan's eyes: "Miss, look, isn't it written with the three characters 'Meng Shisi' on it?"

Meng Shisan didn't reach for the shredded paper. She stared at it intently and asked, "Is...is there any more?"

Upon hearing this, Meng Shisan finished reading it, and Shang Chun also went over to take a look. Although it was a little blurry, the name Meng Shisi could still be clearly seen.

Meng Shisan put the little earthworm down and placed it on the silver fox's back: "Take Xiaobai out."

Silver Fox knew that Meng Shisan had asked it to take the little cricket away from Mingxiao Hall because he didn't want the little cricket to cause any more trouble.

Of course, it was also a lucky accident; the little earthworm's mischief unexpectedly helped a lot.
