"Princess, can you be alone?" Dingdang asked softly.
"I'm already like this, what else do you think I can do?" Long Qian drooped his head without looking up.
It looks like there are no people around, but in fact there are people everywhere.
Was Chu Dongling worried about her escaping, so he arranged for so many people to guard her?
She really wanted to escape, and staying here was no different than death.
"Princess, please wait for me for a while, I will be back soon." Dingdang glanced at Long Qian again, turned around and left.
The princess was finally willing to go out for a walk, but she did not dare to let others come to serve her easily.
Long Qian heard the footsteps leaving and stood up lazily.
She raised her head and glanced at the high wall opposite, walked out of the pavilion, and continued forward.
There are walking paths all around the lake pavilion, and under the paths is the lake.
The water is gurgling, but the specific direction of the flow cannot be seen at a glance.
Long Qian kept walking along the direction of the water flow, gradually approaching the high wall, and finally stopped.
She looked at the direction of the water for a while, then suddenly climbed over the railing and jumped into the cold lake water.
"Princess." A figure jumped down from the tree.
Xiao Lei has been guarding outside Ziyuan these days, but has never gone in.
The moment Long Qian appeared, he had been following her.
Not only Xiao Lei, but also the brothers who were standing nearby came out one after another when they saw the princess falling into the water.
"It's not good! The princess threw herself into the lake and committed suicide."
"The princess committed suicide by throwing herself into the lake. Go and check the situation."
"Quick! Go and save the princess."
When Dingdang returned carrying the jujube cake, he was so frightened that he threw away the plate and ran towards a crowded place.
The princess looked uncomfortable, but she didn't seem to have any intention of committing suicide. Otherwise, given her a hundred courages, she would not have dared to leave the princess alone.
"Princess, you don't want to die!" Dingdang cried while running.
Of course Long Qian would not commit suicide. It would be better to die than live. She jumped into the lake just to find out what was going on at the bottom of the lake.
Judging from the flow rate of the lake water, the water will definitely flow outside.
There was no way to escape by land, so maybe she could try the water route.
Unfortunately, the moment Long Qian jumped into the water, she remembered that it was early winter. Although it was early winter in the south, it was still very cold.
Her body trembled, and her stomach hurt, causing her to shrink into a ball.
When Xiao Lei approached, he only saw a thin body being swept away by the current.
He jumped down without hesitation and emerged from the water with Long Qian in his arms.
Long Qian hugged Xiao Lei's neck, coughed twice, and took in big gulps of air.
"Princess, are you okay?" Xiao Lei ignored the defense between men and women and held her bloodless face.
After choking on the water, Long Qian's eyes were very red, and he didn't know whether it was tears or lake water in his wet eyes. He looked very distressed.
The pain in his stomach eased a little, but Long Qian shivered unconsciously.
"Xiao, Brother Xiao, I... am so cold!"
Xiao Lei hugged her and came ashore from the lake with a distressed look on his face.
He wrapped Long Qian in his arms and walked all the way to Ziyuan.
Long Qian never expected that he would not find his way out and almost drowned in a lake less than three meters deep.
This stomach problem is really torturous!
"Brother Xiao, would you believe me if I said I didn't commit suicide?" At night, Long Qian lay back on the bed like a salted fish.
Dingdang went out to get the medicine, and Long Qian looked up at the man standing not far away with his back to the big bed.
Xiao Lei took a deep breath, turned around, and walked to Long Qian's side.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the woman on the bed, and said seriously: "If you want to leave, I will take you away."
"Tomorrow night at three o'clock in the morning, see you in the back mountain."
