Zhenliang understood that if Nangong Lie hadn't grabbed her, she would have fallen into the cold lake. However, she was not grateful to him at all, because if he had not suddenly appeared in front of her, she would not have fallen into the water.
possibilities and threats.
In particular, Zhenliang clearly felt that Nangong Lie's big hand on her waist was extremely hot, so hot that it made her a little frightened. Therefore, she lowered her face and said without politeness, "Your Majesty, please."
Leave me alone, I can save myself."
She was talking big, meaning that even if Nangong Lie didn't help her, she would still be able to stand firm at the critical moment, or even if she fell, she wouldn't drown and would crawl out on her own.
Nangong Lie naturally misinterpreted the real reason for her resistance. He did not retract his arm, but said coldly and sarcastically, "I forgot that your water quality is unparalleled."
He had seen with his own eyes that she suddenly appeared under the water that was once as smooth as a mirror...
Zhenliang didn't explain her lack of water quality, nor did she bother to explain to a shameless and indifferent person like him. Seeing that his hand hadn't left her waist for a long time, but it was getting tighter and tighter, she
The voice became colder and said, "Since the Emperor understands, why don't you let me go?"
Nangong Liefeng's eyes narrowed dangerously and asked, "Are you sure I won't fall into the lake after you let me go?"
He didn't hear the teasing meaning in Nangong Lie's mouth at all. Zhenliang only thought that he was unhappy and said with disdain, "What's so scary about falling into the lake? I have water properties that no one can match. Even if I fall, I'll be like
When a fish returns to the water, it can only be at ease and cannot be uncomfortable."
Nangong Lie pursed his sexy thin lips, and stared at Zhenliang with his phoenix eyes, as if he had already made some kind of difficult decision, and said in a deep voice, "Since you are so independent and persistent, I can only respect you."
Obey."
As soon as the last word fell, Nangong Lie's hand on Zhenliang's waist slowly left. When the hot temperature in Nangong Lie's big hand completely disappeared from Zhenliang's waist, Zhenliang suddenly realized that he
Her body was still leaning slightly backward, which meant that if she remained motionless, she would definitely fall into the lake.
When he reacted, Zhenliang quickly exerted force with his right foot, trying to stand up quickly. However, when the force was applied to the waist, for some reason, a bone near the waist clicked for some reason, and it also
It seemed like in an instant, her strength was gone.
When Zhenliang realized that this must be a vengeful man who had quietly moved his hands and feet on her waist, it was obviously too late, because she had already fallen into the lake without any suspense.
As Zhenliang fell into the water, a "plop" sound was heard, and at the same time, Nangong Lie's extremely bad voice sounded, "It turns out that Concubine Liang is still interested in swimming in the winter. I am really impressed. No wonder no one can match her water skills."
Even though Zhenliang was wearing a winter coat with more than three layers inside and outside, the cold lake water quickly soaked her clothes, and the bone-deep cold penetrated into the seams of her bones in an instant.
Zhenliang could never have imagined that he would end up with such a tragic end if he showed off his strength for a moment.
If she had known that Nangong Lie would suddenly let go, she would have tightly controlled her mouth to prevent him from hearing a single word.
When he couldn't feel a trace of warmth all over his body, Zhenliang was struggling awkwardly in the water, while still imagining that he would suddenly possess superb water properties.
However, no matter how hard she fantasized, no miracle happened. She only felt that she was getting colder and colder, her body was sinking deeper and deeper, and she was becoming more and more powerless.
In a daze, Zhenliang saw that Nangong Lie did not leave, but stood by the lake gloating, looking at her motionless, as if watching a good show she directed and acted.
Even though her hatred for Nangong Lie has increased a bit, Zhenliang understands that this is not the time to show off her skills with him. He is the one closest to her now, and he is the only one who can save her.
Presumably, her four maids either didn't see her fall into the water, or they had been driven away by Nangong Lie, so they didn't show up in time to save her.
After taking a few sips of the cold lake water, Zhenliang coughed and stretched an arm toward the shore, shouting, "Hurry up and save me! Save me! I can't swim! No!"
"
At a time when she might drown at any time, Zhenliang no longer had the time or energy to explain to Nangong Lie why she couldn't swim. She could only explain it as simply as possible, hoping that he would believe it and help Nangong Lie as soon as possible.
To lend a helping hand.
In fact, as long as he leaned over slightly and stretched out a hand toward her, he could easily pull her out of the water. Therefore, she desperately needed him.
However, even at this moment, Zhenliang's expression was anxious, panicked, sincere, and weak, and it was difficult to convince Nangong Lie.
After all, not only had he heard all kinds of interesting stories about Yuchi's daughter's unparalleled water skills, but he had also seen her diving for a long time with his own eyes. He had just heard from her that she was very fond of her own water skills.
He thought without hesitation that this would make her ask him for help, so he must be pretending.
This woman is very cunning and hates him very much. Therefore, at this moment, she is just pretending to be pitiful and wants to take advantage of him to lend a helping hand to her and pull him into the lake to freeze.
To achieve her goal of revenge against him.
Nangong Lie confidently believed that he had never been the kind of man who was easily fooled by women, so even though he couldn't bear to see her soaking in the cold lake water for a long time, he thought that she was still trying to plot against him.
After all, I am more angry than sympathetic.
He wanted to see how she, who didn't know how to use water, could drown herself?
In his opinion, once this woman did not drag him into the water, she would definitely play a trick of hiding under the water for a long time without moving, just to scare him.
It's a pity that he has already seen through her tricks and will not be easily fooled by her.
After the court today, he was walking around alone, but he heard rumors from other concubines that she and Nangong Yu were in love by the Golden Wing Lake.
He didn't believe she was that kind of woman, let alone the kind of man Nangong Yu was, so he immediately walked towards the Golden Wing Lake, thinking to himself, if he found out that Zhenliang didn't behave intimately with Nangong Yu, then...
He must punish those who spread rumors.
Unexpectedly, from a distance, he saw Zhenliang and Nangong Yu talking and laughing, with ambiguous expressions on their faces.
Her eyes were so bright and bright as she smiled, and her lips were as delicate as water. She looked so relaxed and charming, but she had never shown these behaviors in front of him!
He is her legitimate man, but she rejects his touch and hates his approach!
That's why he was so cruel to her when he was so angry that he let her suffer the punishment of the cold lake water even though he knew she could swim.
