What Yu Minglu wanted to ask was whether Meng Renping's words were at Li Shou's behest. When he received a negative answer, he had nothing more to say.
Silent all the way.
Both of them remained silent.
When Meng Shisan received the report and heard that Meng Renping and Yu Minglu had come together, she was slightly surprised: "My brother is very busy all day long. He was even busier after returning from Fangshan to retrieve the evidence... How come he was able to come with Doctor Yu now?"
Shang Chun said, "Tong Yu, who came to report, said that she overheard that the eldest young master specially went to the Imperial Hospital to pick up the young imperial physician Yu."
Meng Shisan nodded and sat in Mingxiao Hall waiting for them.
She voluntarily went down into the vast river; she must have considered the consequences before doing so.
She's doing alright right now. Aside from feeling a bit cold when she first got ashore, she warmed up considerably after drinking the ginger soup that Lu Luo had prepared for her, and then she was fine.
Meng Renping led Yu Minglu into Mingxiao Hall. Meng Shisan stood up to greet him and then got straight to the point.
After a moment, Yu Minglu said, "It's nothing serious."
"That's good." Meng Renping turned to Meng Shisan and added, "Even if you are good at swimming, you should not go into the water in such a cold winter... not in summer, not in spring or autumn either."
I initially only thought of the winter cold, but then I realized that my eldest cousin was a girl, and it would be bad no matter why she went into the water, so I added Xia Chunqiu to the list.
With all four seasons in full bloom, Yu Minglu, who was writing a new prescription for health maintenance, couldn't help but smile slightly.
His attendant, Cang Shu, was standing nearby, quietly waiting with his medicine box on his back. Seeing this scene, he couldn't laugh; he only felt a toothache.
His wife has recently been keen on choosing a future wife for her son. Not to mention that all the girls are outstanding, their family backgrounds and appearances are all good enough to match the young master. His wife even asked him privately if he knew what kind of girl the young master liked.
He almost blurted out something like "the eldest daughter of the Meng family," but luckily his teeth bit his tongue in time, drawing blood, which stopped him from causing trouble.
His wife even complained that he was being incredibly stupid for biting himself.
He thought to himself that it was better to be a little stupid; otherwise, if he were to reveal the young master's secret, the young master would be the first to reject him, without even waiting for the master and mistress to react.
The young master once said that he dislikes people who are tactless and talkative.
He should be a person who knows his limits and doesn't speak recklessly, so that he can serve the young master for a long time.
Yu Minglu noticed that Cangshu was covering one side of his mouth, looking like he had a toothache. No one knows a servant better than his master, and he snorted inwardly, thinking, "This follower is tough on the surface but mischievous on the inside."
The Meng family cousins were not paying attention to Yu Minglu, and thus were unaware of the suspicious glances exchanged between Yu Minglu and his servant.
"Brother, you said it's freezing cold, so it's fine if we don't go into the water, but why can't we even go into the water in Xia Chunqiu?" Meng Shisan didn't necessarily want to go into the water to do anything, but things are unpredictable. What if there was another opportunity like going into the Kuangguang River to find half a piece of green soil? If she listened to Meng Renping's words and missed the opportunity, wouldn't she be missing the path that could guide her to the truth?
She won't listen to that.
She wouldn't listen; she had to argue her case no matter what.
Meng Renping said, "You're just a woman..."
"What's wrong with me being a woman?" Meng Shisan retorted with wide eyes before Meng Renping could finish speaking.
Yu Minglu was also drawn over by the suddenly raised voice: "Although Miss Meng is a woman, in a true sense, she is no less capable than any man in the world."
With his support, Meng Shisan straightened his back even more: "That's right! Doctor Yu is not only excellent in medicine, but also very good at seeing the essence of problems!" Meng Renping looked back between Meng Shisan and Yu Minglu: "Once Doctor Yu has completely restored your health, you will be perfectly healthy and without any problems. Then it will not be too late to say that your medical skills are excellent."
Even Bai Ying stopped calling him, so Yu Minglu knew that his friend was annoyed with him. He turned his face away and picked up his pen to continue writing medical records and prescriptions.
Seeing that Meng Renping had silenced Yu Minglu with just one sentence, Meng Shisan stared at Meng Renping and asked, "Brother, is there something important you haven't said yet?"
Meng Renping said truthfully, "I am partly acting on His Highness's orders to bring Bai Ying to our residence to examine your pulse. It is also His Highness's will."
"Then... what about the other half?" Meng Shisan asked.
Yu Minglu unconsciously pricked up his ears; he wanted to know too.
"The other half is my own decision." These words were Meng Renping's reply to Meng Shisan, and also to Yu Minglu. "As for you, your elder brother has no other wish than that you be healthy and live a peaceful life."
Meng Shisan understood, but she couldn't do it: "Brother doesn't want me to take risks, but he knows that with our identities, the current political situation, the future trend, and the unpredictability of the emperor's heart, our Meng family, and other Eastern Palace officials such as the Yu family, will be like walking on the edge of a cliff as long as His Highness has not become the new emperor. No one can predict when we will fall."
Her frank words caused Meng Renping and Yu Minglu to both look at her.
She blinked innocently: "Am I wrong?"
Correct.
It was precisely because it was so right that they were speechless for a moment.
After waiting for another dozen breaths, neither of them spoke. She calmly asked them one by one, "Brother, did I want to take the risk? Doctor Yu, could it be that I was wrong?"
Meng Renping looked at Yu Minglu, and Yu Minglu looked at Meng Renping. Their eyes met, and they both knew perfectly well that Meng Shisan was right.
Finally, she added, "If Your Highness asks, my elder brother can relay my words to Your Highness, or perhaps I will answer Your Highness in person when the opportunity arises."
Whether she goes into the water or not is not just a question.
Li Shou was indeed her backer, but she was also a member of the Meng family. What she could think of, he couldn't possibly not think of either, and even her eldest cousin and Yu Minglu could think of it.
What makes them want to restrain her is that she is a woman.
But when disaster truly befalls her, who will spare her just because she is a woman?
will not.
They will definitely eliminate her completely, and she might even suffer worse consequences because of her being a woman.
From another perspective, the Meng family is not the Crown Prince's maternal family, but his political enemy. Therefore, when it's time for her to be ruthless towards Crown Prince Li Shou, she will not hesitate to act decisively.
So how can one expect others to be lenient towards her when she herself is about to die and be humiliated, when she would do something she herself would definitely do?
She wouldn't have such a naive and foolish idea.
There never will be.
Meng Shisan looked up at Meng Renping, who seemed to be lost in thought, and then at Yu Minglu, who was writing medical cases and prescriptions absentmindedly.
Hopefully, they never will.
As ordinary people live in this world, there is nothing they cannot do in order to protect themselves, regardless of whether it is done in the light of day or not, as long as it is not a heinous crime.
