She hadn't expected that her mother's tactic wouldn't work on Yunzhi. She wondered if Qingyue had actually tried, whether she was genuinely unable to deal with Yunzhi, or if she was deliberately holding back.
If Qingyue knew what Princess Langhua was thinking, she would definitely cry foul. How could she dare disobey the Princess's orders? She regretted her fate.
But Yunzhi is out of control, what can she do?
Princess Langhua gazed at Yunzhi with a deep look in her eyes, thinking to herself: It seems that I have no choice but to use my own method.
Therefore, she quickly gave Yunzhu a look, signaling her to act.
Yunzhu nodded, then stood up and walked towards Yunzhi.
She approached Yunzhi, smiling gently, and said, "Sister, shall we find a place to have a private chat?"
Yunzhi glanced at Yunzhu, knowing she was probably about to make a move, and couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Alright, I wonder what my little sister wants to say to me?"
"Sister, don't worry. You'll know when we get there." Yunzhu acted as if she were keeping it a secret, as if it were really true. But Yunzhi knew that these were just excuses; she just wanted to find a quiet place so she could make her move.
"Alright, let's wait until we get there." Yunzhi didn't chase after them anymore, which relieved Yunzhu. Then she led Yunzhi to the stern of the boat.
Everyone was on deck; there was hardly anyone at the stern. After Yunzhu led the people to the designated spot, she suddenly pointed into the distance and said, "Sister, look! What's that?"
As she spoke, she pulled Yunzhi toward the side of the boat. There, Princess Langhua's men had already tampered with the gunwale.
The railings there had long been broken; if someone leaned forward even slightly, they would break and fall into the water.
Yunzhu wanted to create such an accident so that Yunzhi would fall into the water.
Seeing Yunzhu's actions, Yunzhi narrowed her eyes slightly, but a smile remained on her face. As she let the other party pull her to the side, she said, "Let me see."
Hearing Yunzhi's words, Yunzhu was overjoyed, but she didn't show it on her face. She subtly led Yunzhi toward the damaged ship's bow.
Closer and closer, Yunzhu couldn't contain her excitement and said, "Sister, it's a bit far over there, and we can't see very clearly. Shall we move closer?"
“You’re right,” Yunzhi replied casually, pretending to lean forward.
Just as Yunzhi was about to approach the broken string, a dark glint appeared on Yunzhu's face, and then she pushed Yunzhi hard from behind.
Yunzhi felt a strong gust of wind behind her and quickly moved to the side. Before she could regain her footing, she heard a splash—someone had fallen into the water.
Immediately afterwards, a scream rang out on the ship.
"Oh no! The Regent's wife has fallen into the water!"
At the shout, the people who were on the deck rushed towards the stern. Princess Langhua walked in first, a smug smile on her face.
Yunzhi falling into the water was only the first step. Immediately afterwards, servants who had been arranged in the water would step forward to rescue her and then pull Yunzhi out of the water.
When everyone saw Yunzhi being rescued by servants, soaking wet, it would be difficult for her reputation not to be ruined.
Princess Langhua originally intended to use a beggar directly, but then she thought it would be too deliberate. What beggar would go boating on a lake for no reason, especially not right under a boat?
Therefore, after much deliberation, she finally decided to use servants. This made sense, since it wasn't unusual for a master to travel with several servants.
