"Let's go!" Jiang Bai said coldly, "The master is still waiting for your report!"

Mei Hong lowered her head further and further, but her steps hurriedly followed Jiang Bai's, neither fast nor slow, very decent.

No one knew that the little girl was already ecstatic at this moment. The eldest prince actually took the initiative to plead for her. Although she knew that the eldest prince did this purely for the sake of the young lady, the fact that the eldest prince thought of her showed that at least she had made the eldest prince recognize and remember her.

And this is enough for Mei Hong.

The road ahead is still long, and she must plan every step carefully.

After the early summer rain, the sun seemed to be even hotter than usual, and the cicadas in the trees became more and more noisy. Summer has officially arrived.

As the forsythia faded, the path leading to the study was covered with a layer of golden color, and the greenery on both sides became more and more lush.

Mei Hong respectfully followed Jiang Bai towards Yu Zhengsha's study. The sunlight was a little dazzling, making her feel dizzy.

Finally arriving at the study door, Jiang Bai turned around and told Mei Hong to wait outside, then he walked in.

It was noon, and the scorching sun was looking down at the earth, as if it wanted to burn everything to ashes with its scorching light. The big tree in front of the study door was wilted by the sun, and even the shade of the tree was curled up into a small ball, hiding timidly under the tree.

Meihong's stomach felt empty and her stomach contracted painfully. She licked her slightly dry lips and waited for the master to call her in. She felt a little dizzy.

Yu Zhengsha stood with his back to the door, his body straight, his hands clenched into fists behind his back, with a hint of anger in his eyes!

Murong Yanhui was truly despicable! He had actually ruined his plan. Such a perfect opportunity had been missed. If he wanted to wait for it again, it would probably be harder than climbing to the sky.

"master……"

Jiang Bai's voice pulled Yu Zhengsha out of his thoughts. His well-maintained hands slowly loosened, and he turned around, his face as serious and resolute as ever.

"Has that maid been released?!"

Jiang Bai nodded, "Master, the person has been brought here."

"Bring her here? I didn't mean to see her, so just let her go."

Yu Zhengsha was a little impatient. Compared to this maid, he wanted to know more about the situation of Yu Qingli who was taken away.

Jiang Bai hesitated for a moment and then said frankly, "Master, I think you need to meet this maid! Perhaps you can get some useful information from her. Besides, this maid doesn't seem as simple as she looks."

After hearing what Jiang Bai said, Yu Zhengsha became a little curious. Since Jiang Bai had given him such an evaluation, it seemed that he should meet him in person.

Mei Hong was almost fainted by the scorching sun, if it weren't for the cool breeze that made her a little more awake.

The waiting time was like the lonely dark night, so long that Meihong could hardly hold on, as if she might faint on the ground in the next second.

Her ears were ringing and her head was buzzing. Mei Hong forced herself to stay awake and looked at the door of the study. Why? No one came out yet?

Finally, Jiang Bai's cyan robe appeared in Mei Hong's sight, "The master ordered you to go in."

Even though the voice was serious and cold, it sounded like heavenly music to Meihong's ears. She closed her eyes, straightened her mind, and walked towards the study.

This was the first time that Mei Hong faced Yu Zhengsha alone. She was very nervous. Not to mention anything else, the overwhelming aura alone was enough to scare her. She couldn't help swallowing.

Yu Zhengsha sat behind the huge mahogany desk with an air of righteousness. There was a hint of fatigue under his slightly closed eyes, and the wrinkles on his face, which were stained by wind and frost, were mixed with a bit of severity, which made people feel intimidated.

Mei Hong stood there respectfully, her body trembling slightly. She tried hard to suppress the fear in her heart, wondering how the master would punish her.

Having lived in the Yu Mansion for many years, Mei Hong understood Yu Zhengsha's character more thoroughly than Yu Qingli. At this moment, Mei Hong began to blame Murong Feng. It was good that he pleaded for her, but in doing so, it seemed like a slap in Yu Zhengsha's face.

A servant in the Prime Minister's Mansion actually needs an outsider to plead for mercy. Doesn't this clearly mean that Yu Zhengsha is unfair?

How could Yu Zhengsha, who always cared about his reputation, withstand such an insult? He naturally wouldn't do anything to the eldest prince, after all, he was a descendant of the royal family. So, wouldn't the spearhead be directed directly at him?

Yu Qingli was in a state of confusion. If this was true, would she be kicked out of the Yu Mansion?

With this thought in mind, Mei Hong became more and more nervous.

Yu Zhengsha glanced up at Mei Hong, who was standing before him. Why was this maid so frightened? Could it be that she had guessed what he was thinking?

He originally planned to ignore her, after all, she was just a girl beside Yu Qingli. However, Jiang Bai spoke very highly of her, which gave him some ideas. Perhaps, they could make use of this girl.

"sit!"

"The slaves dare not!"

Mei Hong spoke respectfully, with fear in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, but her body stood straight, which was quite similar to Yu Zhengsha.

This image has already made Yu Zhengsha highly praised. A person who is so proud from the bottom of her heart cannot hide her pride even though she is a servant. Such a servant is worthy of being a servant of the Yu Mansion. It seems that Jiang Bai has a good vision.

Mei Hong did not miss the fleeting satisfaction in Yu Zhengsha's eyes, and her heart was pounding.

Yu Zhengsha didn't force it, and just said, "Do you know what I did before I became the Prime Minister?"

Mei Hong nodded. Having lived in the Yu Mansion for many years, she had heard the story of the master's rise to power countless times and had always admired him. To rise from a small soldier guarding the city gate to the position of Prime Minister, second only to the emperor, how meticulous must his mind be? How many things must he have gone through that were unimaginable to ordinary people?

But, what does the master mean by suddenly saying this?

Yu Zhengsha changed the subject, "I heard that Yu Qingli and the eldest prince are very close. I'm afraid you have contributed to this, right?"

"I dare not. Moreover, this concerns the young lady's reputation. Even if I am ignorant, I know that it is not appropriate for men and women to touch each other!"

"What about you? You're not even slightly tempted by the Crown Prince?"

Mei Hong was horrified and fell to her knees with a thud. When had the master noticed this? But no, she absolutely could not admit such a thing. Otherwise, even if the master let her go, the eldest prince might put himself to death because of the damage to his reputation!

Thinking of this, Mei Hong kowtowed heavily, "If Master wants to punish me, I have no complaints. After all, I have embarrassed you before. But I know my own limitations. How could I have such inappropriate thoughts about Your Highness? Master, there is no need to force charges on me!"

The words were sonorous and powerful, without a trace of timidity! This made Yu Zhengsha look at her with new eyes. He had misjudged her. He had never expected that Yu Qingli would have such a maid by her side.

Yu Zhengsha glanced at Mei Hong thoughtfully and said, "Okay, go back first!"

Upon hearing this, Mei Hong's heart, which had been in her throat, finally settled down. Although she was a little confused, at least her life was saved, and the master had no intention of kicking her out of the Yu Mansion.

This is already the most perfect result.

Coming out of the study, Mei Hong felt that her body had reached its limit. She supported herself and walked towards Li Yuan, but her vision began to blur.

In a trance, a man in white clothes with a gentle smile came towards her. Meihong smiled. She had finally waited for her beloved!

"Qiu Hen, save them!"

Murong Feng originally wanted to take Qiu Hen to say goodbye to Yu Zhengsha, but now that things have come to this, if he stays any longer, it will probably lead to more trouble. Moreover, his father's birthday will be in a month, and he must rush back as soon as possible to prepare birthday gifts. Although he is the abandoned prince, anything can happen before the throne is inherited.

In addition, Murong Feng had another idea. He had to ask for the arranged marriage as soon as possible before Yu Zhengsha came to Beijing. Once Yu Zhengsha came to Beijing, everything might not go so smoothly!

As for Yu Qingli, he believed that since the young uncle had stepped in, he would definitely be able to save her. He had long heard that although the young uncle was unruly, there were some extraordinary people around him.

After the heavy rain yesterday, the weather became a little hotter. After hearing that Yu Zhengsha was in the study, Murong Feng took Qiu Hen forward, but saw a slender figure coming towards them on the golden path paved with flower petals.

Murong Feng recognized that it was Mei Hong, the maidservant beside Yu Qingli. She was previously locked up in the woodshed for speaking up for justice. After yesterday, he couldn't help but mention it. He didn't expect that she would be released today?

While he was thinking about it, he saw Mei Hong's pale face, as if she was about to fall, so he immediately ordered Qiu Hen to go forward and save her.

Before Meihong fell, she fell into a pair of strong arms.

"Master, what should we do next?"

Murong Feng frowned, "Go back first! Go find a doctor."

In this case, the farewell can only be postponed for a day or two. Fortunately, he doesn't mind these one or two days.

The sunlight shone in obliquely along the window sill and fell on the soft couch in the room. Meihong slowly opened her eyes. The surrounding environment was not the Liyuan she was familiar with.

where is she?

"Are you awake?" A voice as gentle as the spring breeze floated into Meihong's ears, making her very surprised. It was the eldest prince.

But she lowered her eyes in an instant, quickly stood up from the couch, and respectfully saluted Murong Feng, "Your Highness, why am I here?"

Qiu Hen came in with food expressionlessly. Seeing that Mei Hong had woken up, he placed the tray directly on the table and said, "Eat! The doctor said you fainted from hunger!"

A blush spread across her cheeks, with a hint of embarrassment.

Murong Feng glanced at Mei Hong calmly and said, "If you have anything to say, talk after you're full."

Mei Hong no longer refused. Even though she was very hungry, considering Murong Feng was present, Mei Hong ate quite elegantly, which made Murong Feng like her even more. It seemed that Yu Qingli had trained this little maid very well.
