Nan Qianyue frowned, took a few steps to catch up, snatched her younger sister back from Song Suihuan's hands, and continued walking forward. "Sister, the scenery on that bridge looks nice, we might as well go and take a look."
She probably already guessed what tricks they were going to play, so she decided to play along.
Ignored, Song Suihuan glared fiercely at Nan Qianyue's back, a cold smile gradually creeping onto her lips.
In no time, all the girls walked towards the bridge.
Seeing this, the Fifth Princess began to panic. How could she be so stupid? Couldn't she see such an obvious trap? How could her Imperial Uncle like such a foolish woman!

However, an accident occurred.
A loud "plop" sound rang out, followed by gasps from the women.

Sensing something was wrong, Nanqianyue pushed aside the women again and rushed toward the bridge railing.
"Another person has fallen into the water!"
"It looks like Miss Nan!"
As the moon rushed south to the bridge railing, it took off its outer robe and plunged into the water in a clean arc.
Amid the gasps of the women, she successfully pulled her sister ashore.
