The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 865 Its Natural

“Uh…” Ji Kuan felt a little embarrassed when Feng Zheng looked at him, “Well…if Imperial Doctor Yu asks you anything, don’t answer anything about your young lady.”

"Why?" Feng Zheng was puzzled. She was not a slave of the Ji family, so she didn't need to listen to Ji Kuan.

Ji Kuan cleared his throat, and looked around again. After confirming that there was no third person present, he lowered his voice by an octave and said, "Your Highness's order."

Feng Zheng may not listen to him, but when it comes to the words of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Feng Zheng has to think twice before she dares to disobey him.

Feng Kite really didn't dare to completely disobey: "Okay."

Afterwards, she returned to her room, wrote another note, put it in a small round bamboo tube about the length of a finger, tied it to the foot of the locust bird, and let the locust bird fly back to the Meng Mansion to deliver the letter.

After returning to the Meng Mansion, Meng Renping had just changed into his casual clothes and had dinner when Xiu Yu came to the front yard and invited him to Taichen Courtyard in the back yard.

Just before this, Meng Shisan had already received the message from Feng Zheng, so he wrote back and asked Huai Niao to bring it to Feng Zheng, asking Feng Zheng to do as Ji Kuan said.

It was freezing cold, so Meng Shisan asked Shangchun to prepare a pot of Du Kang wine to keep warm, and asked Jinyin to cook some side dishes. When Meng Renping arrived, the cousins ​​ate and chatted in Mingxiao Hall.

Meng Shisan was weak and afraid of the cold, so he placed several silver charcoal basins in the corners of the hall. The fire was burning brightly, making the room very warm in the morning.

As soon as Meng Renping stepped over the threshold, he felt as if a spring breeze had fallen on his face. He was very comfortable. However, in the blink of an eye, he saw his eldest cousin who greeted him with a smile, and his comfort disappeared in an instant.

As he dealt with his eldest cousin more and more times, he accumulated more and more experience after each confrontation. He felt that since his eldest cousin invited him over tonight, there must be something that made his heart beat fast.

Especially when he got closer and saw the table full of food and wine, as well as his favorite Du Kang, this premonition became stronger.

The last Hongmen Banquet was held some time ago...

Before Meng Renping could recall the last time Meng Shisan treated him so warmly, Meng Shisan had already strode over, took his arm and led him to sit at the table, and smiled at him, interrupting all his memories.

Shangchun filled both glasses. Meng Shisan raised the glass in front of him and said, "Brother..."

"Wait a minute." Meng Renping stopped rationally, reached out to take the wine glass from Meng Shisan's hand, and placed it in front of himself, "Even at home, try to drink less."

"I can drink." Meng Shisan knew that the original owner couldn't drink, but she did. "Don't worry, big brother. I won't get drunk after just one glass."

As she said this, she wanted to take back her wine glass, but was held down by Meng Renping again: "You can't drink after three cups."

"Won't……"

"You have something to say."

Meng Shisan wanted to say that she wouldn't get drunk after three cups, but seeing that Meng Renping was determined not to let her drink, she thought about it and gave up. If she didn't want to drink, then she would drink to her heart's content in private.

So he sat back in his original position.

Meng Renping was very satisfied that Meng Shisan no longer fought with him for the wine glass: "Do you want to ask about what happened today?"

"What happened today?" Meng Shisan pretended not to know.

"Even if you don't know everything, you must know something." Meng Renping did not forget that his eldest cousin had sent a maidservant to His Highness's private residence last night. "Don't pretend. If you want to ask me something, just tell me directly." Being exposed, Meng Shisan was not embarrassed at all. He just smiled more brilliantly and asked directly, "Your Highness ordered Master Ji to stay in the private residence as well, but did he have another mission?"

Meng Renping thought about Ji Kuan's unusual and subtle behaviors throughout the day: "Fu Feng must have another mission, but when I asked him, he wouldn't tell me. Your Highness didn't tell me either."

"Brother, have you ever guessed?" Meng Shisan didn't believe that his eldest cousin hadn't noticed some clues.

Meng Renping certainly had a guess. Facing Meng Shisan's expectant eyes, he thought that as a subject, he shouldn't speculate on the emperor's mind, so he finally gave in: "...Maybe it has something to do with you."

"Is it related to me?" Meng Shisan sat down, picked up a piece of green vegetables with chopsticks, put it into his mouth and chewed it. After chewing a few bites and swallowing it, he looked back at Meng Renping, "Brother, what do you think it is about?"

"What else could it be?" Meng Renping asked back. He felt that his cousin's question was unnecessary.

Meng Shisan understood immediately: "Brother, I will tell you the truth. I don't really want to..."

"I know." Meng Renping sighed, "I know you are not interested in getting married at the moment, but Yaoyao, you have reached the age of marriage this year, and this is inevitable. Whether it is our family or outsiders, when they see you, they will think of you getting married or finding a daughter-in-law. Girls always have to get married. Whether it is the East Palace or a high-ranking family, you have to settle down by next year at the latest."

What he said was absolutely true.

Meng Shisan understood this and was speechless for a moment.

"After the Lantern Festival next year, His Highness will select the candidate for the Crown Princess. You will definitely be on the final list that His Highness will submit to the Emperor, but whether His Majesty will approve it remains to be seen." Meng Renping drank one cup after another, but he didn't eat more than two chopsticks of side dishes. "I know very well that you are very resistant to getting married, but as a girl, you have to get married when you reach the age. I don't need to say more, you know it in your heart. In this case, it is always good for you to choose someone you like to marry."

"What if I don't want to get married?" Meng Shisan couldn't drink Du Kang, so he kept eating the food and wine, one chopstick after another, enjoying it very much.

Seeing this, Meng Renping smiled and said, "It didn't affect your appetite. You are very good like this."

"Brother, do you think that I will live a good life whether I marry into the Eastern Palace or any other noble family?" Meng Shisan knew what Meng Renping meant. She said it suddenly and did not need Meng Renping to answer her. She continued, "Brother, have you ever thought that even if I don't marry, I can still live a very good life?"

Without thinking, Meng Renping just thought of all the great deeds Meng Shisan had done in the past few months and nodded: "Yes."

Meng Shisan quickly took back his own glass: "Then just watch, big brother, and let me take my course. Fill it up!"

The last two words refer to enjoying spring.

Meng Renping watched Shangchun pouring Meng Shisan a full glass of Du Kang wine. This time he did not stop him: "Can you really let nature take its course?"

He thinks he can't.

Based on his understanding of his eldest cousin and her way of doing things, the four words "let it be" were not even in her eyes.

Meng Shisan said nothing, smiled and drank the Du Kang in the glass: "Pour more."

Shangchun took the wine jug and filled her glass again.

After the fifth cup, Meng Shisan's cheeks turned red under Meng Renping's surprised look.

But she was very clear-headed. It was just that this body was quite useless. After several months of treatment, she made only a little progress.
