The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 688 Meeting the Emperor

Lou Yan resisted the urge to go to Meng Meijing's house to ask about the situation, while Guo Rong didn't dare to go to her house to inquire.

Guo Rong and Meng Meijing had always known each other, and later, because of Meng Shisan's strong suppression and convincing people with reason, she became closer and closer to Meng Meijing, who was of similar age. However, because of what had just happened when she helped Shi Lianchun to confront Meng Shisan in the street and tried to get Meng Shisan's help by kneeling in public, her relationship with Meng Meijing had just improved, and the little friendship that had just been established instantly fell to the beginning.

So today, as the sun was about to set, after hearing what happened at the Bixu Manor, she extremely regretted not going to watch the fishing.

"I should have gone earlier. Although fishing is the same every time and there is nothing new, apart from fishing, everything that happened in the manor today was very exciting!" Guo Rong regretted it so much that her intestines turned green. She was itching to know the answer, but she didn't dare to ask the person's sister. She could only sit in the boudoir in the mansion and stare blankly.

Yingzi and Momo, who were waiting on the side, looked at each other, and then Yingzi reminded her: "Miss, the madam has not exempted you from facing the wall yet."

If it weren't for the fact that the young lady still had to reflect on her mistakes, given her outgoing personality, even if she didn't see much to see when fishing, she would definitely go to the Bixu Manor and join in the fun.

Guo Rong rolled her eyes: "It's boring if you do this. It's a bummer!"

Sakurako stuck out her pink tongue. The truth always hurts to hear.

Taozi suggested, "Miss, if you really want to know what happened next, there is no need to rush. I will go out to ask around tomorrow. By then, Miss Meng should have left the palace and returned to the Meng Mansion. We will definitely be able to find out something by then."

"It can only be done this way." Guo Rong looked worried. "Mother is really something. If father doesn't want to help the Shi family, then he won't help. I haven't mentioned it again, but why can't he exempt me from facing the wall? Yingzi, go talk to mother and tell her that I really know I'm wrong."

"Yes." Sakurako smiled and walked out of the house.

Lou Yan did not have as many external factors as Guo Rong. She simply felt that the Meng Mansion might be in a mess at the moment. As a close friend of Meng Meijing, she could not go there and cause trouble.

Correct!
Wait...let’s go tomorrow!

The men in the Meng family are either still studying, working outside, or traveling far away to show their talents. They are not in the house at the moment.

As Meng Shisan's father, Meng Zhinian spent his days playing with birds, picking flowers and playing with grass. Except for going home to sleep, he spent the rest of the twelve hours having fun by himself in the market.

As a stepmother, Mrs. Wu couldn't stand it.

But because Meng Zhinian now only favored his concubine, Aunt Jiang, and seldom went in and out of her yard, she no longer cared about this man who was called her husband but was actually no different from her.

Therefore, if no one went to Meng Zhinian to talk about Meng Shisan's affairs, he would be in a state of not knowing the whole situation.

On the contrary, Aunt Jiang heard some rumors.

However, after thinking about it for a while, she decided not to speak. After all, her husband was just a figurehead who only cared about eating, drinking and having fun in the Meng family.

He has some talent, but not enough to make it on the list. It's a relief that he was born into such a wealthy family as the Meng Mansion, otherwise he would probably have problems making a living and wouldn't be able to survive.

And she herself was just a concubine in the second room of the Meng family who had never given birth. She was still a little pretty at the moment, but in a few years, when she was old and ugly, and her husband despised her, she would be worse than a drifting duckweed without a master.

She had figured it out long ago. In this mansion, as long as she was obedient enough and tried not to offend the principal wife, given Wu's not-so-cruel heart, as long as she didn't talk too much and didn't cause trouble, Wu would still allow her to live in the second wife's house in her old age.

So her decision was actually made with her own consideration in every word.

After settling the slightly drunk Meng Zhinian to rest, Aunt Jiang quietly lit a lamp and continued to do her unfinished needlework without saying a word.

At this time, Meng Shisan had been in the East Palace for half an hour. After entering the palace gate, she had to pass through some palaces. It was unknown what the Emperor thought when he knew that she was brought into the palace by Li Shou, and he actually asked General Manager Gan to ask her to come to the Imperial Study to see him.

She was summoned alone.

It was already night, and the palace lanterns in the corridors were lit up, making it brightly lit everywhere, just like daytime.

Baozhu followed her into the palace and was already very nervous. When she heard that Emperor Zong had summoned her, she became even more nervous and her hands and feet were at a standstill all the way to the imperial study.

Meng Shisan himself was quite indifferent.

She had been into this mortal palace before, although it was not the imperial palace of the Great Wei. However, it was the same palace, but with different dynasties, different emperors and different reign titles, so the ruler of the country she wanted to meet was different.

After arriving at the imperial study, Baozhu was stopped outside the palace gate. Only Meng Shisan followed Manager Gan into the imperial study, while Baozhu stood with the two young eunuchs who were on duty outside the imperial study. She dared not move or look around.

Meng Shisan stayed in the imperial room for a while, but not long. She estimated in her mind that it was probably a quarter of an hour at most.

After she came out, the steward Gan who brought her here personally sent her back to the gate of the East Palace.

When Manager Gan saw Li Shou waiting outside the gate of the East Palace, he seemed a little surprised. Then he looked back at her and smiled with great relief.

She just didn't understand why these people thought she had to be the Crown Princess?
Has anyone asked her?

Did she say she wanted to be one?

No.

Chief Steward Gan returned to the imperial study to report. Meng Shisan, held by the hand by Li Shou, walked into the gate of the East Palace, passed through the Changxin Hall, and came to the Chengguang Hall behind.

In Chengguang Hall, dinner had already been prepared. It was a large table full of delicious food, though a little cold. After it was heated up, Li Shou took her to finish the dinner.

She is not picky about food, she just wants to eat hot food.

The royal chef's cooking skills were very good. Unlike the home-cooked meals that Jin and Yin would cook, each dish was very grand and she ate with gusto.

After a whole day of busy work, she was able to have such a satisfying dinner, which made her smile from the bottom of her heart when she was full.

When Li Shou saw Meng Shisan's satisfied smile, he also smiled with satisfaction.

After dinner, he stood up, took her hand again, and slowly walked into his bedroom - Chongyu Hall.

As a bedroom, the scent of Li Shou is inevitably everywhere.

Baozhu walked a few steps in, and then let Changqing pull her sleeves appropriately, and whispered to her: "Just stand here with us."

Baozhu was forced to stand still: "But..."

She watched Meng Shisan being led by Li Shou deeper and deeper into the palace. Even though she knew that the Crown Prince would not harm her young lady, she still couldn't help but feel a little worried.
