The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 1016 Get a Beating

Jiang Ziyao was the daughter of an official, and no matter how naive she was, she had learned some things through her upbringing: "What I know is... that life is truly unpredictable."

The Second Prince, who was perfectly healthy, was suddenly gone, killed by an accidental crushing.

It's really scary.

She didn't want to talk about the bad things, mainly because she didn't understand them and didn't like them.

She quickly changed the subject, asking about the book Meng Shisan was looking for.

After Meng Shisan answered, Jiang Ziyao asked curiously, "Why does Sister Yao know that Meng Ying?"

Shi Lianchun also wanted to know the answer and was waiting for Meng Shisan's reply.

"I don't recognize him," Meng Zhisan denied. "There are some things I need to investigate in order to unravel the mystery in my heart."

"What mystery?" Jiang Ziyao pressed.

Shi Lianchun looked at Jiang Ziyao with admiration. If it were her, she wouldn't dare to ask even if she wanted to know.

She understood that it was because Jiang Ziyao had a confidence that she lacked.

She silently lowered her head again.

"I want to know what kind of relationship she could have with me," Meng Shisan replied, and she was absolutely telling the truth.

Jiang Ziyao and Shi Lianchun were both taken aback. They looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

Jiang Ziyao asked, "Wasn't Meng Ying from the time of the First Emperor?"

Shi Lianchun asked, "Isn't it been more than a hundred years since the time of the First Emperor?"

The two then asked in unison, "How could it have anything to do with you?"

A rare moment of tacit understanding led the two to exchange another glance before looking away and then both turning to look at Meng Shisan.

Meng Shisan replied matter-of-factly, "That's why we need to investigate. Only by finding out can we know what the connection is."

Jiang Ziyao and Shi Lianchun were speechless.

The last bookstore was surprisingly large, spanning three bays in width and two bays in depth. Rows upon rows of wooden bookshelves were filled with books, so many that it was dazzling.

Jiang Ziyao jumped into the store first: "How long will it take to find this?"

Shi Lianchun followed Meng Shisan into the shop: "I wonder if we'll be able to finish searching today?"

“Exactly!” Jiang Ziyao turned to Meng Shisan and asked, “Sister Yao, you’ve been searching for so many days, are your eyes alright?”

Meng Shisan nodded earnestly: "It's alright. I'm not just eating the eye-protecting and vision-nourishing medicinal diet that Jin Yin gives me every day without fail."

"Gold and silver are really great!" Jiang Ziyao immediately exclaimed.

The shop owner and his two employees were surprised to see three young ladies arrive at once. Judging from their attire, they were all noblewomen. They dared not neglect them and treated them with utmost respect, diligently searching for books.

As the sun set, progress was only halfway made. Like the other shop owner before him, this shop owner promised to continue the search and that once he found books on the history of the First Emperor's era, he would personally deliver them to his residence.

Meng Shisan agreed.

Upon hearing the name of the residence announced by Baozhu, the shopkeeper and his two assistants watched the Meng family's carriage and the Jiang family's carriage following behind until they turned the corner and could no longer see the two carriages. The three of them were still in a daze.

Employee 1: "That is..."

Second clerk: "...to the residence of Minister Meng."

The shop owner raised his hand, wiped his face heavily, and then turned around and buried himself in the pile of books to continue searching.

The two men followed closely behind. On the way back, they passed a gold and jade shop, where a large crowd had gathered in front, making it impossible to move. The driver was forced to stop.

It was difficult for the two large trucks to turn around, especially in this lively and chaotic scene.

The coachman needed to turn around, so he got out of the carriage and went to talk to the coachman of the Jiang family's large carriage behind him, asking the Jiang family's large carriage to turn around first, and then he would turn around.

In the brief moment, Jiang Ziyao heard a loud commotion outside and immediately jumped out of the car.

Shi Lianchun glanced at Meng Shisan, who nodded, and the two of them got out of the car one after the other.

Baozhu, Guicao, and Xiru also got out of the car, protecting their respective masters, and slowly walked into the crowd of onlookers.

Jiang Ziyao was the first to squeeze into the crowd, which startled Xiru so much that she ran after her as soon as she got out of the car. The two of them squeezed to the front and saw Dong Linglong!
"Miss Dong?" Jiang Ziyao exclaimed, then called back to Meng Shisan, "Sister Yao, Miss Dong is fighting with someone! Sister Yao, come quick!"

Amidst the cacophony of voices, Meng Shisan heard Jiang Ziyao's shout, but she couldn't make out what she was saying until she and Shi Lianchun reached the front of the crowd. Only then did she realize what Jiang Ziyao was calling: "Ya Ya?"

Dong Linglong was beating a fat man who was lying on the ground howling. He looked quite old, at least thirty years old, and his howls were like a pig being slaughtered.

She heard the noise when Jiang Ziyao shouted. She turned around to look at Jiang Ziyao, but when she saw that Meng Shisan was not there, she thought that she had misheard. She turned back and continued to punch the fat man in the face.

They beat the fat man until his head looked like a pig's head.

The pig's howling was so irritating that she was about to punch the fat man unconscious when she heard a familiar voice calling her "Little".

Dong Linglong stopped again and turned around: "...Yaoyao?"

"What are you doing?" Meng Shisan glanced at the fat man who was being trampled under Dong Linglong's foot.

"Teach that shameless, despicable scoundrel a lesson!" Dong Linglong then recounted to Meng Shisan the whole story of how the fat man entered the gold and jade shop and, taking advantage of the many women inside, took advantage of the chaos to grope and humiliate them.

She also wanted to let the onlookers know why she had punched the fat man.

To avoid uninformed people gossiping and saying she's violent and unmarriageable.

What is unmarriageable?

People who are blind or deaf are even less desirable!

Before Meng Shisan could say anything, Jiang Ziyao went up and kicked the fat man, directly at his large belly.

The obese man immediately let out a scream that sounded even more like a pig being slaughtered: "Ah—"

"What are you yelling about! This kick of mine was too light!" Jiang Ziyao said, then kicked twice more.

The obese man screamed twice more.

Meng Shisan watched from the side and felt that he didn't need to do it himself.

Shi Lianchun also found it very satisfying to watch.

After the onlookers learned the truth, their opinion gradually changed. They pointed at the obese man lying on the ground screaming and berated him for having no shame and bringing shame upon his family and clan.

Towards the end, even as Dong Linglong, Meng Shisan, and the others got into their car and left, the woman who had been bullied did not appear.

Jiang Ziyao, sitting in the carriage of the Meng family mansion, wondered, "Miss Dong stood up for her and gave that despicable person a good beating, so why didn't she even say thank you?"

Shi Lianchun added softly, "We haven't seen a single person."

“Yes, we haven’t seen a single person. It’s really strange,” Jiang Ziyao added.

Dong Linglong, however, did not mind and said understandingly, "She was probably frightened and very scared, so she went home first."

In her mind, she was able to teach those despicable people a lesson because she was skilled in martial arts.
