"Ah, there are really people in the lake, whose maid is in the water..."
"It seems to be the maid next to Princess Mingyu."
"This is great, why can't you think of throwing yourself into the lake?"
Someone lowered their voice and said, "I just heard Princess Mingyu scolding the servants in the box. Could it be this maid?"
"It should be so..."
"Princess Mingyu is so fierce..." A relatively weak young man had a look of fear on his face.
"Having a fierce temper is secondary. I heard that she even crushed the palace carriage on the way to the imperial capital... She also has a very fierce body..."
"Ah...really?"
"It's really true... On the day of the Rain Prayer Festival, I accompanied my mother to Luo City to see the imperial master praying for Donghuan, and I saw with my own eyes that the axle of the palace car was crushed..."
Mingruo didn't expect that men could be so gossipy. However, this wave of gossip won her heart.
While everyone was gossiping, the sailors on the building boat had already fished Chun Ling out. Not only were the sailors good at water, they were also good at rescuing drowning people. Chun Ling quickly spit out the choking water and the person woke up.
She saw the Ninth Princess looking at her with a calm look, and then looking at the Buddha belly bamboo bonsai where the Eighth Princess was hiding... The hairs all over Chun Ling's body stood up. She felt that the Ninth Princess knew everything.
It was no coincidence that I bent down to pick something up just now!
With a super monitor like Linglong here, Mingruo doesn't know everything. Linglong is particularly sensitive to malice. When the eighth princess gave Chunling an order, she told Mingruo everything she sensed. So,
Mingruo's timing when he stooped down to pick up the round fan was very precise.
The eighth princess, who was hiding behind the bonsai, was not in the mood to think about this at all right now. She was already trembling with anger from those people's comments - they actually said she was fierce and said she crushed the palace car... She really wanted to rush out and tear it apart.
Their mouths really want to kill them!
What kept the Eighth Princess from going crazy was not her reason, but that if she really rushed out and killed them, wouldn't she have confirmed her reputation as a fierce person! The Eighth Princess took several deep breaths before turning around and returning to the private room.
.
The steward of Lou Chuan quickly found the box where the eighth princess was. If something like this happened on the boat, there must be an explanation. Fortunately, many people saw that it was the maid who threw herself into the lake, and Lou Chuan did not have to bear the responsibility.
What kind of responsibility? The Eighth Princess really didn't take matters into her own hands. In order to save her image, she sent someone to take Chun Ling back to the post house in a small boat so that she could have a good rest.
The servant girl's drowning into the lake was just a small episode. It did not affect the poetry meeting. The top three were chosen for both sentences and poems.
Prince Hong's poem came in second place, and the other 'contestants' didn't even recognize it and didn't bother to pay attention. Princess Ningping's poem barely made it into the top ten, but Princess Lanyang's poem was not in front of her.
, she was even happier than winning the title, and she was still in high spirits until the poetry party ended and she got on the pier.
Mingruo saw the carriage of Prince Yun's Palace on the boat, so he said goodbye to Princess Ningping, Crown Prince Hong and his cousin, and walked towards the carriage.
Zisu and Zicao followed Mingruo. There were little beggars around asking for coins. Zisu was afraid that they would bump into the princess, so he took out some broken silver and sent it elsewhere. Before this one could be sent away, two more came.
, Lithospermum was also surrounded.
Mingruo got on the carriage, but before he could sit firmly, the carriage began to move.
Zisu and Lithospermum were anxious, what's going on? This carriage is familiar, but the driver seems to be unfamiliar with it: "Wait a minute...stop quickly!"
They originally wanted to call them Princess, but the people attending the Louzhou Poetry Party had not dispersed yet. If people knew that their Princess had been abducted, it would be hard to hear.
Su You looked over here and realized that something was wrong. He got on his horse and chased after her. Su You was afraid of damaging his cousin's reputation, so he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only pursue with all his strength. As soon as he caught up to the city gate, he was beaten by Yuanyuan.
The dark-faced secret guard in black stopped him: "Young general, there is no need to chase. The prince is following the princess."
Su You didn't even recognize the guards at Prince Yun's Mansion, let alone the secret guards. His eyes were full of doubts and defensiveness: "I don't believe you!"
"Um..." Shififu scratched his head. He must practice martial arts hard in the future and protect his master and wife at all times. The job of informing people is too difficult to make a living.
Su You drew out the sword from his waist and pointed it at Fifteen: "Get out of the way!"
Shi Fifteen was almost crying. He took out Prince Yun's palace badge and said, "I have the badge. Can the young general believe that I am a secret guard of the palace?"
"No." Su You shook his head.
"This..." Shi Fifteen's mind was still spinning quickly, "My old prince likes to eat snacks made in the princess's kitchen. The princess also sent a glass flower cake at noon. You will know when you get back."
Su You put away the sword in his hand. There was no need to go back and ask again. He ate a piece of glazed flower cake before going out: "What on earth is going on?"
"The prince has destroyed all the locations of the Evil Ghost Alliance before, but there are still some remaining gangsters who have not been eliminated. They planned to kidnap the princess, probably to take advantage of the prince. Those people were very cautious and could not find the specific location where they were hiding, so the prince had no choice but to use their plan...
…
"That's too dangerous... My cousin is a weak woman who doesn't understand martial arts. What should I do?" Even a man who was fighting on the battlefield was frightened by what he heard. Ruo'er wasn't scared yet.
"Don't worry, Major General, the prince will protect the princess." Fifteen has absolute confidence in his master.
Although Su You still wanted to catch up to see if he could help, but by the time they were talking, the carriage had already disappeared. He didn't even know which direction to pursue: "Okay, my cousin is there.
Whatever happens, you must go to the Duke’s Mansion to inform you.”
"Yes." Fifteen cupped his fists and saluted.
Let's also explain that if here, the driver is driving the carriage all the way, and the road outside the city is not as smooth as inside the city. Mingruo feels like a Yuanxiao in a basket, which is almost rounded.
Si Haochen held Mingruo in his arms and tried his best to stabilize her body so that she could feel more comfortable. Seeing Mingruo's frown, he said softly: "Go into that space and stay."
"It's not possible now." Mingruo looked out through the car window with fluttering embroidered curtains. This bare suburb didn't look like he was approaching a secret stronghold. Then he shouted in a scared but calm voice.
He said, "Who are you? Send me back to the city quickly!"
The coachman turned a deaf ear to Mingruo's shouts from time to time along the way and just drove the coach. When they reached a river valley, the coach gradually slowed down.
Si Haochen said softly: "It should be here soon."
"Then you hide." Mingruo took a deep breath.
"No matter what situation you encounter, don't think about anything else, just protect yourself first." Si Haochen told him.
"I know." Looking at Linglong on her shoulders and Xiaobai squatting next to her, Mingruo felt that she was safe and secure - if it was really dangerous, she would enter the space by herself and let Linglong deal with the people who disappeared when she saw her.
