The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 777 Various magical powers

It has to be said that Li Shou and Li Heng fought fiercely.

The first ones to be used for combat were all plucked and crushed feathers, and pond fish that floated to the surface and turned over.

But this feather and this fish in the pond are not completely innocent.

Meng Shisan didn't know the details of the struggle among those in power, but he could roughly imagine its tragedy and cruelty.

Huang Jing moved into the Meng Mansion and had his own place to stay. He was well behaved every day, cheerful and friendly to everyone. He got along so well with Meng Shisan that it seemed as if they were childhood friends.

Baozhu, who was still recovering from her injuries, was a little worried about this, so she asked Jinyin not to stay in the small kitchen to prepare food all the time, but to go over to the young ladies more often to keep an eye on them.

Jin Yin did so.

So from time to time Meng Shisan would see Jin Yin suddenly coming to her with a spatula in hand, or coming to her with a bowl in one hand and salt in the other, and then staring at Huang Jing with a wary look in his eyes.

It made her laugh and cry.

Huang Jing was thick-skinned. Not only did he not react, he also pretended to be kind and reminded Jin Yin not to let the food in the small kitchen get burnt or fried.

Feng Zheng, who was also recovering from his injuries, went straight to Chang'an. Chang'an calmly said that there was no need to worry, and that the young ladies had their own countermeasures. Feng Zheng said "oh" and said no more.

From the day that Meng Shisan killed all the guests in Li Heng's private residence, Lan Zhijin did not find another place to live like Huang Jing did, but continued to live in the inn, except for a fight with his arch-enemy Huang Jing in the small inn and paying some silver to the innkeeper afterwards.

Like Huang Jing, although one is a magician and the other is a heavenly master, neither of them has the habit of wearing monk's robes or Taoist robes.

Huang Jing was a girl, and a Taoist nun who did not need to shave her head. She did not speak, and she did not wear Taoist robes, so no one knew that she was a Taoist master.

Meng Shisan knew the truth not because Huang Jing confessed voluntarily, nor because she wore a Taoist robe when she entered the Meng Mansion, but because Chang'an was there. Demons are naturally sensitive to groups like heavenly masters and wizards. In addition, although she is a human, she has a powerful thousand-year-old demon soul. She has the ability to see through a mortal demon exorcist.

Lan Zhijin was not wearing a monk's robe, but he had a bald head. The innkeeper saw this and asked him if he was a monk. He didn't want to lie, so he nodded.

The arrival of a wizard in the small inn was really a rare thing. The innkeeper couldn't help but ask about the identity of Huang Jing, who had fought with him so closely. Huang Jing told the truth without thinking.

Therefore, within less than half a day, the innkeeper spread the news that Lan Zhijin and Huang Jing were magic masters and heavenly masters, and everyone in the inn, from the guests to the waiters, knew about it.

Everyone in the inn knew about it, and naturally, the news spread outside the inn in less than half a day.

So within a day, the news that a great magician and a heavenly master had arrived in the capital spread to every corner of the city.

Everyone in the streets knew about it, and the wealthy and powerful families, officials, and even the royal family gradually learned about it.

Li Cong learned about it when he was on the street being escorted back to the palace by Xiang Zhao after Luo Gui had treated his injured leg with acupuncture. He heard passers-by talking about it: "It's been really lively these days."

No wonder my father has no time to care about his presence in and out of the palace.

He smiled sadly and looked down at his injured leg which he had been treated with acupuncture for the past two days but he felt nothing at all.

"People have been in a state of panic these days, and many official positions may be subject to change." Xiang Zhao frowned. Although the struggle between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince had nothing to do with the Xiang Mansion, it was related to the Seventh Prince in front of him.

He motioned Feng Hui to stop. Feng Hui nodded slightly, stopped pushing the wheelchair, and asked Li Cong to stop on the busy side of the street.

Li Cong knew that it was Xiang Zhao who asked Feng Hui to stop, and he had no objection. However, when Xiang Zhao squatted down in front of him, he smiled and said, "Why? Do you think the Xiang Mansion will also be affected?"

As far as he knew, most of the official positions held by the Xiang family members in the court were marginal, and even if they held powerful official positions, their ranks were not high.

It was so inconspicuous that it seemed likely that his brother the Crown Prince and his second brother would not bother to intervene in this struggle.

"That's not what I meant." Xiang Zhao shook his head. He looked at the spot on Li Cong's chin where there used to be a faint scar, and said with a look of joy, "Dr. Luo's medical skills are very good. The scar on your face has been completely removed. I believe that as long as he continues to treat you, Dr. Luo will definitely be able to get you back on your feet."

Li Cong was stunned for a moment, thinking that the sad smile he had just lowered his head must have been seen by his sharp-eyed second cousin Xiang: "Second cousin, don't worry, I will stick to it."

In the past, he refused treatment because he saw no hope. Now that he can see hope, he will naturally not give up any chance of standing up again.

Xiang Zhao nodded, then stood up with a frown on his face.

Li Cong saw this and asked, "What are you worried about, second cousin?"

"My second uncle took the initiative to show goodwill to the Second Prince a month ago." Xiang Zhao said simply. They were on the street here, so he lowered his voice and did not elaborate.

The second master of the Xiang family, Xiang Fengzhan, was a Langzhong of the Ministry of Works, belonging to the Ministry of Works' Construction and Cleaning Officials Division, a fifth-rank official. He was the second brother of Concubine Shu, and was originally law-abiding. Later, because Li Cong intended to get close to Li Heng in order to seek some protection, he also gradually interacted more frequently with Li Heng.

If you work so hard, you will inevitably get things done.

Showing goodwill was not a big deal, as there were many officials in the court who showed goodwill to the prince. However, the way Xiang Fengzhan showed goodwill to Li Heng was really eye-catching, so Xiang Zhao was worried that his second uncle would offend Li Shou.

Although Li Cong's legs were weak, his mind was active. He knew everything about his in-laws' affairs. Naturally, he knew something about the eye-catching initiative of his second uncle mentioned by Xiang Zhao, even though he did not have anyone investigate it carefully.

After thinking about it, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

Hearing Li Cong's sigh, Xiang Zhao's face became worse: "If my second uncle is really being used as an operating table, then..."

"I will go back to the palace now..." Li Cong quickly understood what Xiang Zhao really wanted to say, so he followed the wishes of his second cousin who had always cared for him sincerely, "... go find my second brother."

Do your best to help protect Xiang Fengzhan.

"Thank you, sir!" Xiang Zhao expressed his gratitude immediately.

Li Cong asked, "Did my second uncle ask my second cousin to tell me this?"

Xiang Zhao shook his head and said, "Second uncle knows that I took the initiative to show my goodwill a month ago, but I didn't inform you in advance. It was my fault. Now that something bad is about to happen, I dare not say this."

He couldn't bear to see his uncle's gloomy face, so he took the initiative to bring it up when he accompanied Li Cong to Luo Gui's house to treat his old leg injury.

Similar situations, such as Xiang Zhao going to Li Cong to seek help in order to protect Xiang Fengzhan's official position, also occurred in other mansions.

It can be said that each government has shown its unique abilities, and the connections between people have been used to the extreme in the past two days.
