But his words just now made Meng Qi guess that this guy must have a way to get money, so he said that. For an introverted person like Song Chengze, it was not his style to easily show off his financial resources to her.
It wasn't until the candle flame crackled that Meng Qi coughed lightly and said after a while, "I have something else to discuss with you."
Song Chengze's voice also returned to calm, "What's the matter?"
"I know that Your Highness has never had any useful personnel in Prince Cheng's Palace, right? I have an idea of someone, but I wonder if Your Highness believes me."
Hearing this, Song Chengze suddenly looked up at Meng Qi, "Who?"
"Do you still remember that my third uncle gave a little girl from the Meng family to Prince Cheng two years ago?"
Song Chengze thought about it and nodded, "Are you talking about her?"
"Yes, her name is Meng Zhi. I didn't know much about her originally. I only heard from my mother that she seemed to be doing well in Prince Cheng's mansion. Prince Cheng even brought her back to the Huainan Marquis's mansion twice, and she had a good relationship with Princess Cheng."
Song Chengze listened quietly without interrupting Meng Qi, listening to Meng Qi finish telling about Meng Zhi's life experience and what happened to her family after she was sent to Prince Cheng's Mansion by Meng Hai.
"You mean, she hates Meng Hai."
"Yes, she not only hates Meng Hai, I think she also hates Prince Cheng. But she has to bow her head under the eaves. Only if she does well in Prince Cheng's mansion can she prevent her mother and brother from being bullied by the clan members."
"What do you want to do?" Song Chengze looked at her and asked.
"Rather than exploiting each other, it's better to help each other. It's not easy for her to take revenge on Meng Hai with her ability. This prince should be able to help her." Meng Qi didn't continue after she finished speaking, but looked straight at Song Chengze.
Song Chengze whispered, "You think Meng Hai is a threat to me."
"Yes, no matter who he belongs to, he will not belong to you and the Crown Prince. Moreover, I believe that he will definitely be a stumbling block in your grand plan in the future. It is only a matter of time before he is eliminated."
"He is your third uncle."
"He's also the one who put me in this awkward situation. My mother said that we have no right to interfere with how he plans his own affairs, but he and the Third House repeatedly drag me down and step on me to get ahead. They will have to pay the price for their actions. My mother told me that I don't need to worry about Third Aunt's affairs, she will have a way. But I have to do Meng Hai's affairs myself, and I don't have the ability to do so. I can only ask you to help me."
Song Chengze looked at Meng Qi's expression. Compared to the blushing little girl just now, she looked like someone who had experienced life and death. Both her words and her expression were beyond what she should be like at her age.
"Do you think Meng Zhi will help you?"
"We have to try it to find out. If she agrees to cooperate with me, then we will know something about what's going on in Prince Cheng's mansion, which will also be beneficial to you."
Song Chengze stood up and walked around the room twice. "You're right. I have people in Prince Cheng's Mansion, but they can't enter the main house, and the things they can find out are only trivial. If this Meng Zhi can be used, and she can find out important and valuable things, this is really a good deal."
Song Chengze sat back down and looked at Meng Qi. "You are so smart."
Meng Qi had a look of deep resentment on her face. After hearing what Song Chengze said, she didn't know what expression to put on her face. She just felt her face turn red again.
"This is also what I thought of yesterday when my second sister told me about Meng Zhi's past. Since you agree, then please, Your Highness, can you create an opportunity for me to meet Meng Zhi. She is a concubine and has no qualifications to go to the palace. She rarely returns to the Meng family, and I can't go back often to maintain the current appearance. I originally thought that I could take advantage of my second sister's wedding to meet her, but even if she can go back, that day will be crowded and noisy, which is not the best time to discuss matters. And I think the sooner this matter is finalized, the better."
Song Chengze nodded and said, "I understand. I'll ask Song Lu to check if there's anything going on in Prince Cheng's Mansion recently. But it's not a good idea to ask her for help with Brother Mo's affairs."
"Yes, in order to prevent others from noticing anything, my meeting with her should be more natural, and I must not be the one to make the first move."
Song Chengze stood up and patted his robe, "Okay, I understand." When he reached the door, he turned around and looked at her meaningfully, then turned and walked out of the main house of Jing'an Garden.
