"Ah..." Lin Jingmo screamed and fell into the water. She was neither good at holding her breath nor able to swim, so she had to fight with her hands fluttering and shouted to Qi Xuanyi on the shore: "Help... I can't
Fu Shui!"
Qi Xuanyi looked at his hand in disbelief: "Conscience of heaven and earth, I didn't mean it..."
At first, Lin Jingmo fell into the water very close to Qi Xuanyi. Hearing Lin Jingmo calling for help, Qi Xuanyi hurriedly reached out to catch her, but not only failed to catch her, Lin Jingmo tried to struggle in the direction of Qi Xuanyi.
But instead it drifted further and further away.
There seemed to be a pair of invisible big hands under the water pulling her down. As she struggled and called for help, water kept pouring in from her mouth and nose, and soon her thumping speed slowed down.
Qi Xuanyi on the shore was very anxious. Seeing Lin Jingmo sinking, he shouted: "Come here, help!"
It's just that it was the queen's birthday at this time, and the palace people went to Yaohua Palace to decorate it. There were few people in the garden, and it was remote. When she entered the garden, she told the palace people not to go near unless there was no important matter. The garden is so big,
Generally, there are only female relatives, and men and women work together, and the guards on duty are all near the garden gate, so shouting alone is not enough to get there.
At this moment, Lin Jingmo was already exhausted. She heard Qi Xuanyi on the shore calling for help for her. She thought that instead of wasting energy by throwing herself around, it would be better to hold her breath and sink, waiting for her rescuer to come.
You won’t have any strength to escape.
So, she held her breath and slowly sank with the flow of water...
Lin Jingmo's figure disappeared from the water, and Qi Xuanyi on the shore became even more anxious: "It's over, Lin Jingmo is going to die again! No, I have to go out and call for help."
Shang Shixu in the distance watched all this quietly. He watched Lin Jingmo struggle with an expressionless face, watching her sink. He seemed to have neither the pleasure of killing the hidden danger nor the pain of losing his wife. He thought it was Qi Qi.
Xuanyi left to escape responsibility, so she walked out of the garden gate with peace of mind.
Then he decisively turned around and left in the direction of the garden gate. When he was approaching the garden gate, he met Qi Xuanyi who was asking for help to no avail.
When Qi Xuanyi saw Shang Shixu, hope ignited in her heart, and she quickly grabbed his sleeve and said, "It's too late, Minister Shang, your wife is going to die again."
Shang Shixu frowned, deliberately took out his sleeves slowly, and replied: "The princess and Madam have been at odds for a long time, but there is no need to curse her. Besides, there are differences between men and women, and I dare not overstep it in broad daylight."<
/p>
Qi Xuanyi said hurriedly: "Lin Jingmo has fallen into the water and is almost sinking at the moment. Don't you have a deep relationship with her? Why don't you come with me to rescue her!"
Shang Shixu naturally knew it well and had no reaction when he heard this. Qi Xuanyi quickly pulled up his sleeves again and ran away. When he came to the pool, he let him go and pointed at the water and said: "
Your wife is in the water now, why don’t you jump in and save her!"
Shang Shixu calmly straightened his wrinkled sleeves and casually glanced at the calm water in front of him: "The princess and the madam are not on good terms, but there is no need to take revenge on me. I don't know how to swim in the water, so I can jump down."
He will also die. The water is so calm. How can there be no ripples if a living person falls?" He turned to look at Qi Xuanyi, his eyes gradually darkened, and said coldly: "Besides, Madam is not a three-year-old child. She is so good.
How did she fall into the pool? Could it be that... someone pushed her into the water?"
Qi Xuanyi was frightened by Shang Shixu's cold look and lowered her head with a guilty conscience: Yes, that's fine. How can someone like Lin Jingmo explain that he fell into the water? If others knew that my majestic princess actually
Being punished by the royal brother for pushing someone into the water over a little quarrel is a small matter, but losing the dignity of the royal family is a big deal.
However, at this moment, Lin Jingmo slowly emerged. It turned out that she was slowly floating because she was holding her breath in the water. As soon as she emerged from the water, she took a big breath and sank quickly... Qi Xuanyi looked at Lin Jingmo who had just emerged from the water, then looked at Shang Shixu who was unmoved by the side, and exclaimed: "It's not like what Wu Linghou said, you want Lin Jingmo to die, okay?
Let’s break away from the Lin family completely and join Zhongshu Ling, right?”
After hearing this, Shang Shixu jumped into the pool without saying anything, but instead of saving Lin Jingmo, he directly sank into the pool...
Qi Xuanyi said: "Oh no, he just said he didn't know how to swim..." He quickly continued to call for help.
At this moment, the guards outside heard the cry for help and came to the pool to rescue.
Lin Jingmo sank into the water. Looking at Shang Shixu who was also submerged with him, he was very moved: Husband, he doesn't know the art of swimming in the water? Did he jump down to save me...
His expression was still cold, and he just stared at Lin Jingmo: I just need to hold my breath underwater for a moment, wait for her to suffocate and then pretend to be rescued.
Vaguely, there seemed to be noisy sounds coming from the shore.
Lin Jingmo looked up at the water: Has someone come to rescue us? But how do we let them know our location?
She looked at Shang Shixu again: He knew clearly that he would die if he jumped into the water, but he still chose to come down to save me without hesitation?
Suddenly, she used her last breath to reach out and push Shang Shixu upwards.
Shang Shixu was pushed by Lin Jingmo, and his body floated upwards. Even if it was only for a moment, he looked surprised: She wanted to...
With this push, Lin Jingmo used up all her strength and sank deeper. She felt her body getting heavier and heavier. The sound of bubbles seemed to be constantly coming from her ears. The gas in her body kept coming out of her mouth, and the pool water poured in.
My throat and trachea felt like a foreign body from the pool water, and my eyes that had originally been opened also felt the burning pain and slowly closed...
Am I...going to die again?
In a daze, she stretched out her hand feebly to grab something. She knew it was in vain, but she was suddenly held tightly by a big hand...
Lin Jingmo slowly opened her eyes, and through the light beam refracted from the water surface, she saw clearly the person who saved her: it was Shang Shixu!
Shang Shixu held Lin Jingmo's hand and pulled her to swim towards the water with difficulty. After a while, Shang Shixu emerged from the water, grabbed the bamboo pole handed by the palace people and returned to the shore.
Shang Shixu picked up Lin Jingmo and returned to the shore, but she had already passed out because she had lost oxygen for too long. Shang Shixu put her on the ground and looked coldly at her face, which had not opened her eyes for a long time.
Qi Xuanyi knelt down and patted Lin Jingmo's face. Seeing that she was unconscious, he said, "Relieve her anger!" After saying that, she immediately looked at Shang Shixu: "She is your wife, please calm her down." Shang Shixu looked up at her, lowered his head helplessly, and said casually: "Princess, I just escaped death..."
Qi Xuanyi shook his head: "I just came out of the water and I don't have enough energy." He turned to look to the left and right, and pointed at two guards casually: "You, and you, come here to calm Mrs. Shang's energy."
Hearing this, Shang Shixu looked at her with a dark line on his face: "I'd better come."
