The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 895 Feeling a Little Dizzy

"The Second Prince is taking advantage of everyone's anxiety and concern over Miss Meng's poisoning and high fever, which will inevitably affect Magistrate Shi's defenses for the time being," Ji Kuan analyzed.

Li Shou's expression was cold and stern: "He has always been immoral and unscrupulous in his actions. He is most skilled at manipulating people's minds, and Father Emperor is most susceptible to his tactics!"

He surpassed Li Heng in every way, except in front of Emperor Zong, where he could not feign weakness like Li Heng did.

"After hearing that Miss Meng had been poisoned and then developed a high fever, and that her life was in danger, Kite's condition had been off. He would often become distracted, which inevitably led to moments of weakness. The Second Prince must have anticipated this and taken advantage of it, which allowed the assassin to seize the opportunity and strike decisively." Ji Kuan had to admit that Li Heng was quite adept at psychological warfare.

“Right now, Chi Nan has personally gone to Fangshan to collect evidence. As long as Chi Nan gets the evidence and returns safely, even without Shi Ju as a witness, the physical evidence alone…” Li Shou’s face hardened, “I will definitely drag Li Heng down from his high position!”

"Should I go and meet them in Chi Nan?" Shi Ju was protected in Li Shou's private residence, guarded by layers of guards, but he was still shot and killed by an arrow. Even on Li Shou's side, if Meng Shisan hadn't risked his life to block, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Ji Kuan thought about it and became more and more worried about Meng Renping, who was still in Fangshan and hadn't returned.

Even with guards both overt and covert, and with Chang'an following along, Li Shouyu, upon learning that Shi Ju had been killed by an arrow, couldn't help but worry about Meng Renping's safety, and thus nodded: "Alright."

After Meng Meijing left, Jin Yin brought in a bowl of millet porridge. Meng Shisan ate it and then went to sleep, sleeping until the next morning, when he got up feeling refreshed.

Afterwards, the kite returned home and told her about Shi Ju's death.

"He was shot dead last night?" Meng Shisan had just finished eating the millet porridge that Jin Yin had personally cooked for him and was sitting at the table in the inner room of his bedroom, listening to Feng Zheng's report. "Then why didn't you report it last night?"

"Your Highness is worried about Miss's health. Miss was finally able to sleep soundly. Your Highness instructed me to rest after returning last night and to report to Miss this morning." Fengzheng truthfully stated that it was indeed Li Shou's intention.

Jin Yin cleared the bowls and took them away, while Shang Chun chimed in from the side, "Miss really needs to rest well. Physician Yu has given me instructions, saying that eating well and sleeping well are the most important things right now."

The rest must step back.

"Mmm!" Baozhu, whose left hand was already capable of doing some light tasks, nodded vigorously from the side.

“I only asked one question, and the three of you answered it in turn.” Meng Shisan knew they were all concerned about her, and Li Shou was also concerned about her health. “I’m fine now. Although I’m still a little weak, I’ll recover with rest. There’s no need to worry. Not just you, but whenever anyone asks about my health, you all say the same thing. Do you know that?”

"Understood," the three replied in unison.

"You must speak carefully to Shangchun at the main house, and absolutely do not let Grandmother confine me to my quarters," Meng Shisan specifically instructed Shangchun.

"Alright. Is Miss still going out?" Shangchun asked after replying.

Upon hearing this, Baozhu said anxiously, "How can Miss go out again in this condition?"

Fengzheng also said, "Miss, you should rest and recuperate at home these days."

Meng Shisan looked helplessly at the three of them, each saying something in turn: "We'll see."

She couldn't be too definitive about whether she would go out or not, but if necessary, she would definitely go out.

Although she was indeed very weak, as she said, she was not so weak that she couldn't leave the house. Right now, it was a critical moment for Li Shou to fight Li Heng, and it was impossible for her to completely ignore what was happening outside.

Upon hearing that it depended on the situation, the three of them looked at each other, exchanged glances, and then remained silent.

It wasn't that they didn't want to try to persuade her again, but they knew Meng Shisan too well. Once their young lady made a decision, not even eighteen oxen could pull her back.

They should save their breath and think more about how to ensure the young lady's safety. Of the three, Kite, the only one who had just returned to the manor and knew martial arts, clearly had the heaviest burden on her shoulders.

After Lan Zhijin rescued Meng Shisan, he did not stay at the Meng residence. Last night, he had Huang Jing send him back to the inn.

Unexpectedly, the two had just agreed to leave the city at dawn to chase after the butterfly demon and the wolf demon when they unexpectedly ran into the two demons.

Having encountered them, the two naturally gave chase. However, the two demons did not engage in direct combat. Instead, they lured Huang Jing and Lan Zhijin out of the city gate as if to lure them.

The butterfly demon and wolf demon were quite powerful and ran very fast. The two chased them all night until dawn, but they still couldn't catch up.

The two realized that the butterfly demon and the wolf demon only wanted to take them for a run in the countryside outside the city, so they stopped at the same time.

Meng Shisan sat in the inner room for a while, intending to get up and go for a walk outside. However, after taking only three steps and before even leaving the inner room, she felt a little dizzy.

"Miss?" Shangchun, with her sharp eyes, was the first to notice and quickly helped Meng Shisan up.

Meng Shisan pointed to the stool in the outer room. Shang Chun understood and helped her sit down. Once seated, she said, "I feel a little dizzy, but otherwise I'm fine."

"Why don't you go back to bed, Miss?" Baozhu asked worriedly.

Meng Shisan didn't want to stay in bed any longer: "No need."

Shangchun asked, "Shall I go and brew some ginseng tea for Miss?"

"Okay." Meng Shisan thought ginseng tea could be refreshing, so this was a good idea.

Yu Minglu said last night that he would come again early this morning. Sure enough, not long after breakfast, he entered the Meng residence. When he arrived at Taichen Courtyard, he learned that Meng Shisan was feeling dizzy. He quickly went over and carefully took Meng Shisan's pulse again.

"Miss Meng is in poor health; it would be best for her to rest in bed for the time being," he said sincerely after taking her pulse.

As soon as he finished speaking, the jewels, gold, and silver in the outer room all nodded in agreement.

"I feel even more weak when I'm lying down all the time." Meng Shisan didn't want to lie down, and she had her reasons. She tried to persuade Yu Minglu, "Young Physician Yu, could you prescribe a formula that doesn't require me to lie down all day?"

Yu Minglu realized that Meng Shisan was fundamentally incapable of resting properly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Yes, there is, but it still requires the cooperation of the young lady."

"I will definitely cooperate." Meng Shisan replied immediately when she heard that she didn't have to lie down.

To her surprise, Yu Minglu's next words made her frown: "Then, Miss, you should stay obediently in the manor these days and not go anywhere."

He had known Meng Shisan for quite some time and knew Meng Shisan's temperament very well, so he couldn't help but give him a few more words of advice.

Baozhu and Jinyin nodded in unison, "Yes!"

Meng Shisan raised his eyes speechlessly: "What 'hmm'? If Physician Yu says not to go anywhere, it must be something insignificant, so we shouldn't go anywhere. But if it's something important, then that's fine too..."

Finally, she looked back at Yu Minglu expectantly: "Right? Young Physician Yu?"
