The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 738 Walking Sideways

"Okay, okay." Mr. Hua did not dare to disobey and agreed repeatedly.

Afterwards, he helped Old Master Hua to sit down in the nearest chair, and after instructing Steward Hua to take good care of Old Master Hua, he personally went to arrange to notify the old masters of the Sha and Shui mansions.

Old Master Hua was so impatient that Chang'an didn't have to say anything more. She stood quietly in front of Old Master Hua, waiting for him to calm down his sudden temper before talking to him properly.

Until Old Master Sha and Old Lady Shui's family arrived at the Hua Mansion, Meng Renji was surrounded by the leaders of the three major families. Even though there was not only him but also Chang'an, he still found it difficult to suppress the excitement in his heart.

Chu Cun, who was isolated outside the encirclement, was more than wooden. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was as stiff as a statue.

The two old masters and Old Master Hua are about the same age. They are in good health and full of energy. They are all excited. When they look at Chang'an, it seems that they are seeing Meng Shisan through Chang'an, and their eyes are full of light.

Meng Renji could feel that if his surname was not Meng, he would definitely be excluded like Chu Cun. He couldn't explain the feeling, he just felt that everything before his eyes was a dream.

It seemed that from the moment he was beaten in public at Quexian Tower and fortunately rescued by his elder sister, all the things he had not dared to think about or do in the previous eighteen years, all happened one after another under the instigation of his elder sister.

In addition to acceptance, he was more grateful and motivated to become stronger through hard work.

However, slowly, as now, he had a feeling of powerlessness that no matter how hard he tried, whether in his mind or in his body, he could not surpass his older sister.

This feeling of powerlessness came so suddenly that he instantly wilted, like a bright flower blown to pieces by a gust of wind.

While Changan was answering the three old men, he glanced over and saw Meng Renji's expression beside him. It was such a horrible sight.

She withdrew her gaze without caring.

During the master's long years, there were too many people like the Second Young Master.

She had been with her master for six hundred years. During those six hundred years, no matter whether they were truly defeated by her master or simply crushed by her master, no matter whether they were demons or humans, their number was more than the branches and leaves on her body.

Not surprising.

Finally, under the strong request of the three old masters, Chang'an agreed to write a letter to Meng Shisan, the content of which was to ask for the three old men whether they could be allowed to visit the capital.

Upon hearing this request for the first time, Chang'an was as calm as ever, but Meng Renji could no longer show any shock on his face. His mind was filled with thoughts of Meng Shisan, who would become so sick that he would have to ask Yu Ming to stop by his house to take his pulse if he worked any more.

Who could have thought that such a sickly and frail elder sister could have full control over his life and death safety from thousands of miles away, and that the local tyrants in Lingnan would treat her differently.

They left the Hua Mansion under the burning gazes of the three old masters. The three men rode on three horses, with fiery gazes on their backs, and walked away step by step with the thump of a horse.

Among them, Chang'an didn't care, Meng Renji straightened his spine, and Chu Cun was inexplicably frightened.

Turning the street, the gazes on his back finally disappeared. Meng Renji let out a long breath and said to Chang'an while pouring his wine: "Letter..."

"Write." Chang'an had just sent a letter to Meng Shisan to report her safety. The locust bird had completed its mission and returned to her. She planned to write as soon as she got back and then send another letter to her master.

Meng Renji was silent. Chu Cun raised his hand and slapped himself.

The loud snap attracted Chang'an and Meng Renji to look at him at the same time.

Chu Cun stopped slapping his own hand, his eyes blank, "Master, am I dreaming? Is this... done?"

Meng Renji did not answer, but looked at Chang'an who was riding on his left.

Changan cleared his throat and replied, "It's done."

"Then we can walk around Lingnan as we please in the future?" If he remembered correctly, the fact that Chu Cun found out here was that as long as one was included in the protected list by the three major families, no matter who he was or what his identity was, as long as he did not leave the territory of Lingnan, no one, including the government, would be able to easily hurt the protected person.

"Impossible?" Meng Renji frowned. He felt that no matter how powerful the three major families were, they could not be so powerful that even the government would not be afraid of them.

"To a certain extent, what Chu Cun said is correct." Chang'an's understanding of the Thirteen Tokens began with Meng Shisan's story about the past hundreds of years ago. She was not personally involved at that time, but whatever the master said was true. "The young lady said that the foundation of the three major families in Lingnan is the same as the foundation of the Meng family in the capital. Even though the Meng family is an official and the three major families are civilians, the three major families together are rich enough to rival a country. Therefore, as long as they are in Lingnan, there is no relationship that they cannot smooth out. People die for money, and birds die for food. This is an eternal truth."

Meng Renji was silent again.

Chu Cun was even more speechless.

After a while, Meng Renji saw that they were about to return to the Zhennan General's Mansion, and said to Chu Cun: "Show me the information you collected about the three major families in the evening."

He had seen it, but he had not looked carefully at that time.

To be precise, it has never entered my heart.

But now, the situation is completely different, he has to review it again, seriously!
Chu Cun just nodded, and then he heard Chang'an say: "Second Young Master, if you want to know anything about the three major families, in fact, you only need to tell the three old masters, and they will definitely tell you everything they know."

"...Can it be like this?" Meng Renji never thought it could be like this.

Chu Cun's face was glowing with passion.

"Yes." Changan answered affirmatively.

Meng Renji immediately stuffed the thirteen tokens in his arms deeper into his robe. He couldn't afford to lose such an important token!

Meng Renji was a man named Meng Shisan who, under the name of Li Shou, took advantage of Li Shou's trust in her and asked her to meet with Qiao Qiancheng at night to discuss important state affairs on behalf of Li Shou. Finally, when Qiao Qiancheng agreed to join the East Palace camp, she made an additional request to Qiao Qiancheng.

If you want to say that it is taking advantage of the situation, that's fine.

If you say she is scheming, she has no objection as long as she can achieve her goal.

At first, Qiao Qiancheng was not optimistic about Meng Renji, not only because Meng Renji was only brought back to the Meng Mansion at the age of 18 this year and given the real treatment of the second son of the Meng Mansion, but also because Meng Renji had never received the education and training that a son of the Shangshu Mansion should have. He felt that such a Meng Renji, even if he was not a hopeless person, was almost the same as A Dou.

Therefore, although he verbally agreed to Meng Shisan's request, he also tried his best to protect Meng Renji's safety all the way back to Lingnan.
