The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 692 Temporarily Avoiding
Meng Shisan took a deep breath and exhaled slowly: "I'm not angry."

"Really?" Li Shou moved his face forward again.

Meng Shisan was forced to tilt his head back: "Really."

Li Shou stood up straight, stretched out his hands to wrap around Meng Shisan's slender waist, straightened her up and let go, then said: "Even if you are angry and blame me, I can understand."

"Really not." Meng Shisan smiled lightly, his eyes curved like crescent moons, "Your Highness allowed me to join the game and hoped that I could break it, which shows that Your Highness is very confident in my ability. This is His Highness's affirmation of me. If I can really help Your Highness this time, I will also be happy. As for the fact that Your Highness did not let me go to have a night talk with General Qiao like last time, and told me in advance, even my eldest brother and Master Ji had to hide it, I think it was to avoid causing unnecessary trouble. Under such circumstances, Your Highness's affirmation of me can be said to be quite high. I will not be angry or blame Your Highness for your ability. On the contrary, I will be very happy."

Li Shou was very pleased to hear Meng Shisan's words and to hear that she could understand his actions and other ideas that came out of it. He was also very happy and excited. "I didn't even mention it to Fu Feng. I kept it a secret just like Chi Nan. I never said anything. How can Yaoyao be sure of this?"

"My eldest brother is calm and reliable. Your Highness didn't say anything. Although Young Master Ji is not bad, he is not as smart as my eldest brother." Meng Shisan said quietly, as if he was afraid of being talked about by Ji Kuan who was guarding far away in the hall.

Li Shou was amused by Meng Shisan's quiet manner and imitated her by lowering his voice by an octave: "Fu Feng will be very sad if he knows that you evaluate him like this."

Meng Shisan said righteously: "Everyone has his own strengths. My eldest brother is better than Master Ji when it comes to brainpower, but in terms of martial arts, ten of my eldest brothers are not even half as good as Master Ji."

"You mean, Fu Feng is a reckless man." Li Shou smiled.

Meng Shisan spread his hands and said, "This is what your Highness said, not me."

She pushed it and it was completely clean.

"Cui Qilang may know, or he may not know." Li Shou was not worried about whether Cui Yu knew or not. "If he doesn't know, then he doesn't know. If he knows, he won't show it, but will just quietly go with the flow and make his choice."

"Master Cui Qi is quite discerning. Compared to the Second Prince, Your Highness is more trustworthy and reliable." Meng Shisan said.

"Yaoyao, do you really think so?" Li Shou seemed to be hinting at something.

Meng Shisan smiled: "Yaoyao also wants to be like Master Cui Qi, to be His Highness's right-hand man and a counselor that His Highness values."

She took this opportunity to express her true thoughts.

This is the second time.

I still remember the first time she expressed that she wanted to stand by his side and that what she wanted was not the position of Crown Princess but just a position of counselor, he seemed unhappy.

Now, at this moment, she once again expressed her thoughts, firmly expressing her decision that has never changed.

Before Li Shou once again tested Meng Shisan's answer with words, he thought that she might give the same answer as last time. However, when he really heard her answer him like that, he still felt sadder than ever before.

After a while, when the dull but unignorable pain in his chest eased and he took a breath, he asked, "Just a counselor?" "Just a counselor." Meng Shisan answered without hesitation, and after answering without caring about Li Shou's mood, she continued, "Your Highness wants to know what Chang'an's real ability is, and why I think Chang'an will definitely find my elder brother in time that night. I can tell you the truth, but before that, can you answer a question for me first?"

She was changing the subject.

Knowing his feelings and knowing that he would not change his mind, she was smart not to argue with him here, but to temporarily move on from the topic.

She didn't want to have a head-on conflict with him over this topic, because he wanted to marry her, but she obviously didn't want to be a princess. In this case, she chose to avoid him temporarily.

The result of temporarily avoiding it is nothing more than letting time take its course to draw the result naturally, or letting certain people or events draw the result.

He can intervene in both ways.

Likewise, she can intervene.

His and her ideas are contrary to each other, so his and her actions will naturally be contrary to each other.

In other words, before the Crown Princess is chosen, at certain points, what he does may conflict with what she does, or even become an opponent.

"You ask." Li Shou thought a lot in his heart, his thoughts were racing, his expression was slightly lost, and he tried his best not to let his emotions be too out of line.

No matter what choice she made, he didn't want to scare her because of him.

Hearing Li Shou's calm voice, Meng Shisan looked up at him, a flash of surprise in his eyes, and secretly praised Li Shou for being worthy of being the current crown prince.

No matter how turbulent your heart is, you can still appear calm on the surface. Only when your emotions are so stable can your mind stay rational at all times, make the best judgment soberly, and then do the appropriate thing.

At that moment, he asked the question, she avoided it, and his next move was undoubtedly to follow her steps and suppress his personal emotions for the time being. After all, there were more things that were more important than romance.

"My eldest brother went to Fangshan, saying that he was going to conduct a thorough investigation, but in fact, he was going to help the seriously ill County Magistrate Shi at the most appropriate time." Meng Shisan threw out the prefix of the question, and then asked, "My eldest brother just experienced the danger of Qingbei Mountain. Although he was safe in the end, it was still a shock. When His Highness assigned my eldest brother to Fangshan, he must have considered my eldest brother's safety. The people who could send people to protect my eldest brother must also be masters. Yaoyao wants to ask His Highness, besides this, does His Highness have any other ideas?"

Li Shou stared at Meng Shisan for a long while before he had to admit, "I said Yaoyao is really smart, and I really meant it."

"What do you think, Your Highness?"

"The person I sent has received a reply letter, saying that soon after Chi Nan's carriage left the city gate, a silver fox came onto the official road, caught up with Chi Nan's carriage, jumped onto the roof, and sat steadily, like a guard."

Meng Shisan had guessed it before she asked, and she was fine with hearing it. In the past, she had met mortals who were smarter than her, and the same was true for Li Shou in front of her. She had a high acceptance rate, and she accepted it in just a few breaths: "Yaoyao said that Your Highness is wise, but she also said that Yaoyao is not even one-tenth as wise as Your Highness. Now it seems that it is true. All the arrangements I made for my brother were mastered by Your Highness."
