Xia Yi is a Hidden Guard by the Emperor's side. Though not among the top tier, her skills are undoubtedly remarkable.
With her help, it would certainly be easier to take Guo's life.
After a moment of thought, Meng Yunzheng agreed, "Alright, then come with me."
Having said that, he turned to Shu Yu, "Yu, I'll leave things here to you. I'll be back soon."
Shu Yu looked serious, "Be careful, safety first."
Meng Yunzheng packed up and left all the medicine packs he had with Shu Yu, including those antidotes. In case someone breaks in while he's away, these might come in handy.
Meng Pei wanted to hand his sword to Xia Yi, but she refused, "I'll find one outside, keep your sword for yourself. It's not necessarily safe here either."
Thinking it over, Meng Pei realized this was true. He's injured, his brother is on the verge of death, Young Master He is not capable, and Shu Yu is the only one left with some capability and wit. They can't rely on her alone.
So he took back his sword.
