The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 858 Let Me Guess

"Is that what you came here to ask?"

"Why else would I come here so late instead of sleeping?"

Lan Zhijin's face was gloomy: "I haven't thought about it yet!"

"What's there to think about? Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda." Huang Jing didn't understand what Lan Zhijin was thinking about. "Think about it now, and tell me the answer when you're done."

Meng Shisan admired Huang Jing's aura in front of Lan Zhijin. As she was admiring him, she turned her head and looked at Lan Zhijin who was staring at her: "I think what Jing said makes a lot of sense. Saving people is urgent. One night may not make much difference to you, but for the person being saved, it is the difference between being inside and outside the gates of hell."

Huang Jing had classified her as a good friend before, so of course she didn't want to hold Huang Jing back now.

When Yan He heard the word "save people", he immediately thought of Shi Jue, the magistrate of Fangshan, whom Li Heng had mentioned to Queen Lu. Hu Yan, who was eavesdropping, thought it was Du Lao Er's mother.

As soon as Lan Zhijin returned to Beijing, he informed Huang Jing. Huang Jing came upon hearing the news and asked a few questions about the fruitless trip to Nanjing. Huang Jing mentioned Shi Que's illness without further ado, hoping that Lan Zhijin could follow Huang Jing in saving people.

In fact, although one of them is a demon hunter and the other is a demon subduer, when facing the same demon, they will inevitably have to fight for dozens of rounds to determine the winner so as to deal with the demon that they encounter at the same time.

In other words, the two of them mostly fought over monsters, but there was almost no quarrel between them over saving people.

Therefore, when Huang Jing faced Shi Que's serious illness, she took action without hesitation. When Lan Zhijin returned to Beijing, she found Lan Zhijin and continued to save people. His indecision made her very puzzled.

She didn't understand why there was such a problem now when there was no such problem before?
Lan Zhijin also didn't understand why Huang Jing suddenly deviated from their previous fixed route after meeting Meng Shisan?
Originally, the two of them came to Beijing, no matter what their reasons were, they would not stay in the capital for too long. But now Huang Jing lived in the Meng Mansion, and it seemed that he would stay there for a long time, so Lan Zhijin couldn't accept it no matter what.

There is actually only one reason behind this, which is that Huang Jing wants to find something in the Kuangguang River.

She never told him the reason, and he never knew it either, so they were confused with each other.

However, no matter how confused he was, Huang Jing also regarded saving people as the top priority: "That's right, if you dawdle here for a moment, Lord Shi will most likely be in danger. You are a seven-foot-tall man, can't you just do it?"

Yan He: It turns out to be the magistrate of Fangshan!

Hu Yan: It turns out it was not Du Mu, but Shi Que.

"Do you want me to rescue people right now?" Lan Zhijin also wanted to save people, but the person he saved was the magistrate of Fangshan County. As far as he knew, Shi Jue had evidence that was enough to make Li Heng unsafe. When he went to Jinling, Qingmei had already got involved, and he had no time to stop her. Now he had to get involved too, so he was a little hesitant.

The people do not fight against the officials, especially when the other party is a prince.

He himself is not afraid of danger, but he is afraid that Qingmei will be in danger. Since Qingmei is already in the game, if he can watch from the outside, at least he can protect Qingmei in time when she is in danger.

But if he was also in the middle of it, the danger would definitely be directed at the two of them, the swordplay would be doubled, and it would be more difficult for him to protect Qingmei.

According to Lan Zhijin's thoughts and plans, his hesitation was due to Huang Jing's safety, but it was obvious that in Huang Jing's eyes, saving people was more important.

This fact made him sigh in his heart.

As for the eldest daughter of the Meng family, he had no extra opinions or thoughts. Given Meng Shisan's identity and relationship with the Eastern Palace, it was normal for Meng Shisan to want to save Shi Que.

"Let's go!" Huang Jing heard this and pulled Lan Zhijin's hand to leave, but failed. She looked back in confusion, "Let's go?" Lan Zhijin sighed silently in his heart, and then looked at Yan He. Huang Jing understood instantly: "Oh, she..."

"If Master Lan wants to find out where this girl came from, I can do it for you." Meng Shisan spoke appropriately, taking the initiative to take on the matter that Lan Zhijin wanted to know.

"How can I check my origins..." Yan He didn't know why, but she always felt guilty in front of Meng Shisan. She lowered her head and sobbed, "I just like Master Lan. If Master Lan is annoyed, I will definitely not bother you again."

Having said that, she took a step to leave.

"Wait." Meng Shisan stretched out his hand to stop him, "How should I address you, young lady?"

Yan He couldn't say anything and immediately looked at Lan Zhijin with tears in his eyes, looking weak and begging for pity.

Lan Zhijin couldn't bear to watch, and instead pulled Huang Jing's hand: "Let's go, Miss Meng will take care of the rest."

"Okay." Meng Shisan agreed.

Huang Jing was being pulled away by Lan Zhijin. She was still looking back when she was almost at the corner of the stairs. She was worried that Meng Shisan, a proper lady, would not be able to deal with Yan He, a seductress who would do anything to achieve her goals.

But she didn't know that Meng Shisan would usually use any means necessary to achieve his goals.

Huang Jing and Lan Zhijin left first and went to Li Shou's private residence overnight to rescue people. The male guest also felt that he should avoid suspicion. Seeing that only two girls, Meng Shisan and Yan He, were left in the corridor, he immediately retreated into the guest room he had booked, and closed the door quietly and bolted it.

It was not known whether the other guest rooms on both sides of the corridor were empty or the guests had all fallen asleep and were sleeping very soundly. In any case, no other guests came out of the corridor to look around.

Meng Shisan slowly put down his hand that was across Yan He and said softly, "The young lady hasn't answered me yet. How should I address her?"

"Young lady, you are a noble lady, why do you make things difficult for a weak girl like me?" Yan He didn't want to fight with Meng Shisan. First, because Meng Shisan was the grandson of Meng Tianguan, and second, because she also knew Meng Shisan's battle record.

The Second Prince sent out assassins to kill Miss Meng but failed, and seriously injured Feng Zheng, the maidservant beside Miss Meng. As all the guests in the Second Prince's private residence were killed by Miss Meng and her men, all the hundreds of guests were slaughtered.

Miss Meng, who could defeat ten assassins alone and lead her men to fight a river of blood, was not someone that a mere private guard of the empress could defeat.

Yan He answered with a tearful voice, trying to win Meng Shisan's sympathy.

However, when Meng Shisan faces truly kind people, she is very compassionate and gentle to them. However, Yan He is obviously not one of them, so it is difficult for her to satisfy Yan He's wish.

She smiled slightly: "Don't tell me? Then let me guess, is your master the Second Prince or the Queen?"

Although the male guest closed and bolted the door, he was still standing inside, listening to the conversation in the corridor outside through the door. When he heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

The second prince of the current dynasty?
The current queen?

He hurried away from the door and went back to the inner room to lie down on the bed.

He couldn't listen to it anymore. If he listened to it too much, he was afraid his life would be in danger!
