Thinking of the last time she helped him in the main hall, it would be rude if he didn't go up and say hello!
He walked forward and said politely: "Princess, what a coincidence, you are here too?"
Nalan Meng was also very polite, "Yes! I heard that the scenery of Liuxiang Garden is very beautiful, so I wanted to come and have a look. I didn't expect to meet you here."
As she said that, she turned around and looked at the lake in front of her, with a look of sadness on her face.
Seeing that she was full of worries, the wise king couldn't help but said: "Princess, are you worried?"
Nalan Meng sighed imperceptibly.
She looked at the wise king and said, "Your Majesty, as the prince of a country, do you ever feel that you can't help yourself?"
The corner of the wise king's lips curled up slightly, "What about the prince? It's just superficial beauty, not as good as ordinary people. People can still choose the things they like, but we can't."
"What we do, what friends we make, and even what wives we marry are subject to all kinds of restrictions and there is no freedom."
Having said this, the Xian Wang looked at Nalan Meng, "Actually, Xiao Wang envies the princess very much. The princess is free, can travel around, and can decide her own life. Is it possible that the princess also has times when she can't help herself?"
Nalan Meng never imagined that the seemingly glorious and virtuous king would also have such a life.
She said calmly: "It seems that the prince doesn't know that you and I are both fallen people in the world. I seem to be free, but in fact I can't decide my own life at all."
"I carry the future of the entire Nalan family on my shoulders. I can't live the life of an ordinary girl, let alone decide my own happiness."
As she spoke, she looked at the flowers on the ground.
"I don't even have the freedom of these flowers. Flowers can fly and bloom as they please, but I can't."
She carries heavy shackles on her body and cannot retreat for a moment, otherwise she will become the sinner of the family.
The wise king did not expect that Nalan Meng, who seemed to be willful, could not help himself just like him.
Her words resonated with him.
He said softly: "It turns out that the young lady is just like Xiao Wang. She can't decide on some things. That's why the young lady comes here to relax?"
Nalanmeng nodded: "Yes."
Suddenly, she looked at the jade flute in King Xian's hand and said, "Your jade flute is so beautiful. Can you play the flute?"
The Xian Wang pursed his lips elegantly and said, "I know a little bit."
As he spoke, he looked towards the lake in the distance, brought the flute to his lips, and blew it gently.
A clear and distant flute sound came. The flute sound was beautiful and melodious. It contained a touch of sadness and endless longing. Nalan Meng was startled when he heard it.
This piece of music is so beautiful, lingering and melodious, with a deep affection, as if it can touch people's hearts.
It turns out that the wise king's flute sound is so sweet, but he is so humble.
She raised her eyes and saw the Xian Wang's well-jointed hands. They were slender and white, and really beautiful.
Looking further up, you can see the Xian Wang's perfect lips, high bridge of nose, and deep eyes.
Only then did she realize that the King Xian looked so good-looking from a close distance.
There is an innate noble temperament in his every move, like an immortal descended from heaven, cool and elegant, and refined from the worldly world.
Finally, after a while, the sound of the flute slowly stopped, and the wise king also put down the jade flute.
Nalan Meng smiled lightly and said, "Yes, the sound of the prince's flute is like the sound of nature, intoxicating. I am really happy."
"My lady is overly praised, but Xiao Wang's flute skills are not worth mentioning!" the wise king said modestly.
"Ah, help! My lady fell into the lake, who will save her?" At this moment, a cry came from not far away.
As soon as the wise king heard the shout, he immediately handed the jade flute to Nalan Meng's hand, "Princess, please keep it for me."
After saying that, he quickly ran towards the place where he was calling for help.
Nalan Meng saw this and hurriedly followed.
When the wise king ran to the lake, he saw several women standing there in panic on the shore.
And in the water, a woman was struggling violently.
Seeing that the woman was about to sink to the bottom of the lake, the wise king did not bother to take off his clothes. He jumped into the lake, grabbed the woman, and slowly swam to the shore with her in his arms.
When Nalan Meng saw this, he quickly stepped forward to help pull the woman away.
Soon, everyone pulled the woman up.
The wise king climbed ashore by himself. After he landed, he quickly walked towards the woman and asked with concern: "Girl, are you okay?"
The woman coughed several times uncomfortably and said, "Thank you, sir, for saving me. I'm fine."
The maids next to them said: "Miss, it's great that you're okay! Please be more careful next time and don't fall in again! Fortunately, this young man saved you today, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!"
The woman said: "It's all my fault that I was so fascinated by the sound of the flute, otherwise I wouldn't have fallen into the lake."
When the wise king heard this, he felt a little self-reproach on his face, "It seems that I'm the one to blame. I shouldn't be playing the flute over there!"
The woman was surprised and said: "Sir, it turns out you were the one who played the flute? It's really nice."
She raised her eyes again and found that the man in front of her was extremely handsome. Even if he was wet, his elegance could not be concealed at all.
She immediately lowered her head shyly!
Seeing the woman's daughter-like demeanor, Nalan Meng raised the corners of her lips in a playful manner and glanced at the wise king jokingly.
Unexpectedly, the virtuous king has such great charm that he can make people blush with their hearts beating by saving just any woman.
Seeing the shy expression on the woman's face, the wise king hurriedly said: "Since the girl is fine, I'll leave first!"
"Hey, wait a minute!" the woman quickly stopped him, "Sir, your clothes are all wet, and you will catch the cold. Do you want me to buy you a set of clothes to change into?"
The wise king looked distant, "No need! I can go home and change it myself, please don't worry, girl!"
Hearing this, the woman looked disappointed.
At this time, the Xian Dynasty Nalanmeng cupped his hands and said, "Princess, my clothes are wet. I can't stay here for a long time. I'll go first."
"Okay, goodbye." Nalan Meng said calmly.
Seeing the elegant back of the wise king, Nalan Meng couldn't help but curl her lips slightly.
I didn't expect that the wise king, a prince, could be so kind to the people. He didn't even think about taking the test in such an icy lake, and just jumped in to save people.
Suddenly, she saw the jade flute in her hand.
This is the flute of the wise king, and she forgot to return it to him!
She hurried out and wanted to return the flute to the wise king, but she only took a few steps and found that she was lost!
Looking at the garden extending in all directions, she smiled and shook her head. It seemed that she could only keep the jade flute for the wise king first and return it to him when she found the opportunity.

After Chu Tianyu was beaten fifty times, he was carried back to Prince Jin's Mansion to recuperate!
At this time, Chu Tianyu's injuries were still not healed and he could not get out of bed. His salary was cut off by the emperor, making him poor and pitiful.
The queen always subsidized him before, but the queen found that he was too useless and didn't want to waste the money anymore, so she refused to give him any more money.
Since Chu Tianyu had no money, he could not give money to his diners. The diners had no money and were in panic all day long, fearing that Chu Tianyu would fall.
