Many noble ladies around looked at this scene and were frightened. The daughter of the Prime Minister was sent to the nunnery just like this. She was afraid that her life would be ruined.
Obviously, King Jing did this for Li Yueling's sake. It seemed that she was confirmed as Princess Jing.
So everyone has a clear idea in their hearts.
After dealing with Su Qing'er, Li Yueling bowed again and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for making the decision for me."
Yuan Shuo said: "The banquet is about to begin, let's go, I will take you there."
Li Yueling felt a little excited and excited in her heart. She nodded slightly and thanked her, then followed Yuan Shuo into the palace.
Yuan Shuolin led her to the Imperial Garden. When passing by Jinghu Lake, he suddenly asked: "Has Miss Li heard some rumors in the capital?"
Li Yueling was startled, flustered for a moment, then calmed down and asked: "What kind of rumor is this? After the incident in Li's house, I have been keeping the door closed. I really don't know what happened?"
Yuan Shuolin stopped and said, "There are rumors in the capital recently that I want to marry you as my concubine. Don't you know?"
Li Yueling looked a little flustered, but it only took a moment before she pretended to be surprised: "I really don't know about this."
As she said that, she knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, when you ask this question, do you suspect that the rumors are caused by your daughter?"
Yuan Shuolin looked at her and did not help her stand up but said: "That day, you saved my life and helped us catch Han Qianyu. This matter was very hidden and should not be spread to everyone.
But now the people know about it, which is really strange."
Li Yueling thought for a while and said: "On the street that day, people were coming and going, and we made a lot of noise. Maybe we were seen by the people. They made random guesses for no reason and there was a misunderstanding."
Yuan Shuolin nodded and followed her words: "It's not impossible, but now people are saying that I want to marry you as my concubine. I wonder if Miss Li can find any way to clarify this matter?"
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Li Yueling's forehead. King Jing asked her what she had in mind. In fact, he was telling her tactfully that he would not marry her.
For a moment, she felt that she had lost all face. She felt sad and tears fell from her eyes.
When Yuan Shuo saw this, he couldn't help but frown and said, "Why are you crying?"
Li Yueling said: "The rumors in the city are related to my daughter's reputation. His Highness asked me if I had any solution, and I was very anxious.
Now that rumors are spreading everywhere, I am afraid that I will be ridiculed by the people and will be unable to hold my head high. Rather than being like this, I would rather die."
As she said that, she jumped into the mirror lake next to her at lightning speed.
Yuan Shuolin didn't react in time, and it was too late to pull her back. He didn't think much when he saw someone jumping, and hurriedly jumped to save her.
An unsuspecting palace maid shouted: "Someone has fallen into the water."
This shout alerted many people who came to watch.
After Yuan Shuolin fished Li Yueling out, she had already passed out. Yuan Shuolin said to the guard: "Quickly go and ask for Dr. Feng."
Soon, after receiving the news, Mu Yunan and Xiao Chengyi rushed over with Feng Changling.
When Mu Yun'an saw Yuan Shuolin and Li Yueling soaking wet, she knew it was over. It seemed that Li Yueling and Yuan Shuolin didn't want to marry anymore.
However, this matter is really strange. How could a good person fall into the water?
Feng Changling rushed over to rescue Li Yueling. He pricked her with a few needles, and Li Yueling spit out some water and faintly woke up.
Seeing that she was not dead, Li Yueling cried aggrievedly: "My lord, why did you save me? You just let me die."
When everyone heard this, their ears immediately pricked up.
