The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 942 New News

Ma Ji was in charge of searching to the south, Huang Jing was in charge of searching to the west, and the remaining men from Meng Fu, Ji Kuan, Cui Yu, Lu Sen, and others who were sent out to search for Meng Renkang were searching in an all-encompassing and comprehensive manner.

This includes the Five Cities Garrison, which Meng Tianguan personally sought out to help.

Meng Shisan was able to instruct Baozhu to send Chaiyu and Tongyu out to inform Ma Ji and Huang Jing of Meng Renkang's latest news, which naturally meant that Huang Jing had left Meng Shisan a wayfinding symbol before leaving.

There are two talismans, each imbued with the aura of Huang Jing and Ma Ji. If Meng Shisan needs to find either of them, he can follow the talismans to locate them.

So, Chaiyu, holding a talisman imbued with Ma Ji's aura, and Tongyu, holding a talisman imbued with Huang Jing's aura, each found Ma Ji and Huang Jing, who were both searching for someone, on the south and west sides respectively.

After the message was delivered, Shuangyu did not linger and quickly returned to the Meng residence to report to Meng Shisan.

At this moment, Meng Meijing was listening to Meng Shisan recount in detail how Meng Renji was gradually pushed into Qiao Qiancheng's side by Meng Shisan.

After hearing the whole story, she realized that while she was oblivious and living a carefree life, her elder sister was already worrying about her elder brother and doing her best to find the most suitable path for him.

Even though the future is fraught with danger and fraught with peril, in other words, my elder brother, in the officialdom and by His Highness the Crown Prince's side, also has to be wary of open and hidden attacks at all times.

The eldest cousin pursued a literary career, while the elder brother pursued a military one. Their paths were equally challenging, yet completely different. What determined this was the different upbringing of the two brothers.

The eldest cousin was the eldest grandson of the Meng family, showered with love and expectations since childhood, while the elder brother was a dispensable illegitimate grandson of the Meng family, abandoned on a suburban estate.

If the eldest sister does not plan for the eldest brother, even if he studies hard and strives to improve himself after returning to the Meng family, it will be too late. He will not be able to follow the same path as his eldest cousin as a civil official. As far as she knows, after the eldest brother returned to the Meng family from the manor, the elders in the family never thought of planning for him to pursue a career as a military general.

In other words, without his elder sister, the elder brother's future would be predictably mediocre.

Even after the Meng family splits up in the future, and the eldest brother gets married and lives in his own separate household, his family will become the most despised branch of the family.

She could hardly imagine how lonely and difficult her eldest brother must have been back then.

Lost in her own thoughts, Meng Meijing didn't hear Shuangyu's report to Meng Shisan and her leaving Mingxiao Hall. Only a few words vaguely entered her ears.

She watched Shuangyu's departing figure and asked, "What did they come to say?"

"Come on, Ma Ji and A Jing have both rushed to Anmofang Washa." Meng Shisan had been paying attention to Meng Meijing's emotions ever since Meng Meijing looked dazed after hearing her words. "Are there any other questions?"

Meng Meijing shook her head a beat late: "No."

“Whether it’s the second brother or the fourth brother, they are all members of our second branch of the family. No matter what happened in the past or what will happen in the future, the blood ties will always be real.” Meng Shisan reassured Meng Meijing.

“Yes!” Meng Meijing nodded emphatically.

Wu stopped outside Mingxiao Hall and silently turned to leave.

Upon reaching the outside of Taichen Courtyard, Madam Wang asked in a low voice, "Madam came to ask Miss about the progress of the Fourth Young Master's whereabouts, but why didn't you go in even though you're right at the door?"

“In the past, I was short-sighted and narrow-minded,” Wu replied, seemingly uttering a nonsensical statement.

Madam Wang had served Madam Wu for many years and understood: "The eldest young lady is magnanimous; the second young lady, the fourth young master, and the second young master will all be outstanding." "Yes," Madam Wu nodded gently, a smile playing on her lips through her tears.

She married a useless husband, but fortunately her legitimate children were all filial, and although her stepdaughter was not close to her, she was willing to treat her Jing'er and Kang'er sincerely, and that was enough.

After Wu left, Shangchun went inside and quietly whispered in Meng Shisan's ear.

Meng Shisan nodded slightly and withdrew to admire the spring.

"What's wrong?" Meng Meijing wondered if there was something she couldn't hear.

“Your mother came by earlier, but she didn’t come in,” Meng Shisan said. “You’ve been here long enough, go back now.”

Wu came, probably wanting to ask something. If you don't dare ask her, then asking Meng Meijing is the same.

As Wu was her mother, Meng Meijing knew her even better. She knew that Wu's visit to Taichen Courtyard must be because of Meng Renkang. Therefore, when she heard Meng Shisan say this, she immediately stood up and said, "Alright, then if there is any news about Fourth Brother, I must immediately send someone to Shanfang Courtyard to tell me."

Meng Shisan agreed, "Okay."

As soon as Madam Wu returned to Shanfang Courtyard and sat down in the main room, Meng Meijing ran into the room, making Madam Wu frown and say, "Slow down, slow down!"

Her son is a chubby little boy, too steady from morning till night, while her daughter is a little rascal, jumping around from morning till night, and she worries that she might fall.

"Did Mother go to Sister's courtyard? Why didn't you come in and sit down before coming back?" Meng Meijing pounced on Wu Shi and sat down, bombarding her with questions.

Madam Wu was taken aback: "Your elder sister went to Taichen Hospital with the mother you mentioned?"

“Hmm!” Meng Meijing could understand Wu’s retreat, but this couldn’t go on forever. “Mother, actually, my sister doesn’t blame you anymore.”

“But your elder sister didn’t forgive Mother either,” Wu sighed.

Meng Meijing asked, "Why does Mother think that?"

“It’s not that Mother thinks that way, but your grandmother once asked your older sister, and your older sister said…” When Wu recalled what Shang had told her, her sister-in-law also had a helpless look on her face, and she couldn’t help but feel even more regretful.

"What did you say, sister?" Meng Meijing was surprised that her grandmother had asked her sister such a question.

Madam Wu continued, "Your elder sister said that she doesn't blame anyone in the manor, but she won't forgive anyone for her past self."

"My sister actually said that..." Meng Meijing thought back to herself, "Then my sister hasn't forgiven me either?"

Mrs. Wu thought the answer would be roughly the same, so she didn't suggest that her daughter ask her stepdaughter. Instead, she changed the subject, which was what she was most concerned about at the moment: "Does your older sister have any new news about Kang-ge'er?"

"Yes," Meng Meijing replied listlessly. She had come in high spirits, but now her enthusiasm had waned. "Prefect Lu sent his second son with the latest news, saying that Fourth Brother might be in the entertainment quarters of Anmofang. My elder sister has already informed Miss Huang and Old Master Ma to go to Anmofang. Before I came, my elder sister also asked Shangchun to arrange for someone to inform all the people searching for Fourth Brother outside of the area of ​​this new information. As for the household affairs, Shangchun went to the main house to report to Grandmother herself."

It took Wu a while to recover, and tears of joy streamed down her face: "That's good, that's good..."
