The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 533: Broken Locust Branches

"I heard everything." Meng Shisan stood still and looked back at the beads under the four or five stone steps behind him. "I can walk a hundred steps."

Then he looked at Chang'an and said with a hint of meaning, "Chang'an, go ahead and see if there is a sedan chair and bearers. If there is, hire one to carry me up the mountain."

She can still walk.

At least a hundred steps is no problem.

Letting Chang'an go and find a sedan first is a precautionary measure.

"Okay." Chang'an immediately quickened his pace, and in a few steps he passed Meng Shisan and became the person walking in front.

In the next few breaths, he had left Meng Shisan and Baozhu dozens of steps behind him.

Baozhu was dumbfounded: "How fast!"

After saying that, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief, and when she looked again, she couldn't even see Chang'an's back!

Meng Shisan was much calmer. She listened and walked without changing her expression, with a slightly nonchalant look on her face.

It’s more than just fast.

If it weren't for the pearl, Chang'an could fly even faster.

Baozhu looked at Meng Shisan and suddenly realized: "Miss, you knew that Chang'an was in good health and had a very fast pace, so you brought Chang'an to Qingbei Mountain, right?"

At first, the young lady didn't want to bring her along because she was not as fast as Chang'an in climbing the mountain.

wrong.

She thought of something: "But Miss, there are no sedan chairs or bearers available for hire in Qingbei Mountain!"

Whenever a noble wanted to climb Qingbei Mountain, they would bring sedan bearers from their respective mansions, or they would hire sedan bearers and soft sedan chairs from the city. It had never happened that they could find sedan chairs and bearers for hire on the mountain when they were halfway up the mountain.

Meng Shisan: “Oh.”

There was a perfunctory tone in his voice.

"Miss, please don't disbelieve it." Baozhu thought Meng Shisan didn't believe it.

Meng Shisan glanced at Baozhu and said nothing more.

Of course she knew no.

She let Chang'an go first, wasn't it just to create something out of nothing?

If not, why did she bring Chang'an here?

Isn't it just to use Chang'an's magical power?

...I can’t tell Baozhu the truth either.

Then let’s not talk about it.

Baozhu quickened her pace to catch up with Meng Shisan. The young lady ignored her and she didn't dare to keep nagging her. She could only pray silently to God in her heart, hoping that Chang'an could fulfill the young lady's wish and find bearers and a sedan chair on the stone steps above to carry the young lady up the mountain.

Perhaps God did not hear Baozhu's prayers, or perhaps he heard them but did not fulfill them. In any case, Chang'an did not find what he was looking for on the upper flight of stone steps.

However, humans have their own paths, and monsters have their own ways.

When Chang'an returned to Meng Shisan with a sedan chair and two bearers that she had conjured up with her magic power, Meng Shisan looked as if it was natural, but Baozhu looked stunned. Then, Baozhu was overjoyed and chirped, "Miss, Miss, the heaven must have heard my prayers! Chang'an, Chang'an, where did you find the sedan chair and the bearers? Didn't you see them at first, but suddenly you saw them after walking a little further up!"

Meng Shisan pursed his lips and smiled.

Changan doesn't like to laugh by nature, so he doesn't laugh often. He didn't laugh at this moment, but just nodded obediently: "Yeah."

"I knew it!" Baozhu smiled brightly at Chang'an, then jumped back to Meng Shisan and repeated, "I knew it!"

"Okay, it's getting late." Meng Shisan had no plan to spend the night on the mountain, so it was more important to get up the mountain as soon as possible.

Baozhu hurriedly helped Meng Shisan to sit in the sedan chair. As soon as Meng Shisan sat down, two young and strong sedan bearers lifted the sedan chair steadily and walked up the stairs lightly.

Baozhu followed on the left side of the sedan chair and Chang'an followed on the right side.

The two men, together with the two sedan bearers, protected Meng Shisan who was in the middle. They went up slowly and then quickly, gradually walking faster and faster.

Baozhu was initially a little worried that the sedan bearers were walking too fast and would bump Meng Shisan in the sedan. But after Meng Shisan said that would not happen and that he was so comfortable that he almost fell asleep, she stopped worrying.

After all, she also wanted to go up the mountain as quickly as possible, then go down the mountain as quickly as possible, and then return to the city and the mansion. She must not let the young lady spend the night on the mountain.

Otherwise, she was afraid that the young lady's body would not be able to bear it.

If she really couldn't bear it and the young lady fell ill, even if she was beaten with thirty sticks when she returned home, it would not be enough to atone for her guilt for not taking good care of the young lady.

After hearing Baozhu talk about Meng Shisan's weak body, Chang'an couldn't help but become more cautious. Fortunately, the two sedan bearers and the sedan chair made from three locust tree branches she broke in the woods were very reliable and safe.

He walked all the way up, very briskly and steadily, without making his owner feel any discomfort.

She was satisfied.

She felt an instant sense of accomplishment about her trip to Beijing, as she was able to serve her master well and complete the tasks assigned by her master.

For hundreds of years, the master had been practicing alone in the Ancestral Cave Temple, and he personally swept the temple clean and kept it in order, without her having to intervene. Even if she wanted to do it for him, the master would not allow her, leaving her no chance to show her ability.

The master always let her stay in the old house, saying that she only had to take care of it.

But in fact, she wanted to stay with her master more.

It’s as if the owner doesn’t want to stay in the old house, but rather wants to stay in the ancestral cave temple.

On the winding stone steps leading up to Qingbei Mountain, Meng Shisan was sitting in a sedan chair, carrying Baozhu Chang'an to the halfway point of the mountain. Meng Renping, who had arrived after hearing the news, had just stepped onto the stone steps and was still walking at the bottom section.

Gao Yuan followed Meng Renping who was walking very fast. Knowing that his master was extremely anxious, he spoke to comfort him, "Don't worry, young lady probably can't walk very fast either. Let's walk a little further and we should be able to see her."

"You're right." Meng Renping thought the same thing. He kept going up the stairs. "I'm just afraid that Yaoyao won't listen to my advice. Baozhu and... Chang'an who just came to the mansion can't persuade Yaoyao. I'll walk faster and see Yaoyao sooner. Only when I see Yaoyao is fine, I can feel at ease."

Just looking at this long stone staircase, he, a strong young man, felt that if he walked up it, he would have to rest three or five times in the middle, and would be out of breath when he reached the top.

With my cousin's physique, how dare she come hiking alone?

How dare she!
"...Fortunately, the second young lady didn't come with us." After a moment's silence, Gao Yuan said something that was not really a comfort, but it did make the helpless fact a little better.

Meng Renping laughed: "I'm afraid it's not that Meijing doesn't want to come, but Yaoyao doesn't want Meijing to come."

"Why?" Gao Yuan was puzzled. "The eldest lady came to climb Qingbei Mountain early in the morning. She just wanted to go straight to the Taoist temple to burn incense. With the second lady accompanying her, she walked up and down. The second lady chatted with the eldest lady, so she wouldn't be too bored along the way."

Meng Renping shook his head: "Yaoyao only brought two people with her, and they were both weak little girls. There must be a reason for Yaoyao."
