The Saint is highly skilled in martial arts, and even if a puppet master from the Saint's Palace comes, it would be difficult to target her.
The reason why Cheng Sang was successful was that the Saint was careless.
Cheng Sang has been crazy for more than 30 years. Although he always makes a mess in his yard, he has never shown aggression towards anyone.
She hurts only herself.
Most of the servants couldn't catch her, hold her down, or find her, and no one had ever been beaten by her.
Therefore, it is impossible for the Saint to guard against her.
Just like a poisonous snake never guards against a rabbit.
The saint never thought that Cheng Sang would suddenly attack her, and by the time she reacted, he was already in the water.
She nearly drowned when she was four years old, and she never went near lakes or ponds since then.
As she grew older, she was no longer so afraid of deep water, but she still didn't know how to swim.
Her internal energy was useless underwater. On the contrary, due to improper control, she sank faster when she used it.
After choking on water several times, she finally grabbed a bag of water plants on the shore and used the force to float her head out of the water.
But before she could catch her breath, Cheng Sang stepped on her! Saint: "......!!"
The water resistance is too great, and people's movements underwater will slow down, but Cheng Sang on the shore is still as agile as a rabbit.
Every time the saint showed up, she would step on her mercilessly.
She went up again and stepped on it again.
If something happens somewhere else, she will change the place where she steps.
It was not until Xie Yunhe and Cheng Lian arrived that she withdrew her foot with a look of reluctance.
She smacked her lips, turned around, and looked at the two people who were rushing over with an innocent face.
She stood very straight and was very well behaved.
One foot quietly raised up, and like trying to cover up his mistake, he kicked back again! Cheng Lian: “…”
Xie Yunhe: “…”
Cheng Lian quickly asked someone to go into the water and pull the saint out.
The weather in southern Xinjiang is changeable. It was hot and humid last night, but a cool breeze started blowing this morning.
The temperature underwater was freezing, and the saint's teeth were chattering when she was pulled out.
Cheng Lian quickly took off her cloak and wrapped her around her, then knelt on the ground and held her trembling daughter in her arms.
"elder sister!"
She looked at Cheng Sang angrily, "Why are you like this to Qingyao? What did Qingyao do wrong? If you have something to say, come to me! What's the point of taking your anger out on Qingyao?"
Su Xiaoxiao also came over at this time.
She stood in front of Cheng Sang without leaving any trace, and said to Cheng Lian indifferently: "She fell into the water by herself, what does it have to do with the master of the family?"
“Hmm.” Cheng Sang opened his eyes wide and learned the new lines in a second. “That’s right! She fell into the water by herself! I didn’t do anything!”
Cheng Lian: Do you think we are blind?! Su Xiaoxiao brushed the fallen leaves off Cheng Sang's shoulders: "Cheng Qingyao is a master, and the master is weak, how could he easily plot against her? Who knows if this is a self-torture trick?"
"That's right!" Cheng Sang raised his chin domineeringly and took Su Xiaoxiao's hand, "Let's go!"
The old man and the young man left without looking back.
The heroic aura made Cheng Lian grit her teeth!
What hurt Cheng Lian the most was that Xie Yunhe didn't say a word during the entire process.
Even if he had questioned Cheng Sang, she wouldn't have been so heartbroken.
Cheng Lian brought the saint back to the yard.
After soaking in hot water and washing up for an hour or two, I finally recovered.
The saint sat leaning against the head of the bed, her face pale and her originally rosy lips completely bloodless.
What’s even worse is that Cheng Sang stepped on her forehead so many times that it became swollen like a birthday star.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Lian was heartbroken.
The servant brought up the boiled ginger soup.
Cheng Lian stirred it a few times with a spoon, took a taste, and only fed it to her mouth when it was no longer hot.
The saint had no appetite: "I don't want to drink."
"Okay, drink it later."
Cheng Lian placed the ginger soup on a stool beside her and asked her eldest daughter, "What happened today? Is Cheng Sang crazy?"
The saint actually didn't understand it either.
Cheng Sang had a better life in the early years. When she was sober, she should have known that she could not swim.
But how dare Cheng Sang sneak attack her and keep targeting her? How could the crazy Cheng Sang do this to her? Was Cheng Sang pretending to be well these days, or was he pretending to be crazy these years?
"That girl is the cause of the trouble!" Cheng Lian was so angry that she could no longer control her temper. "Ever since she came to the Cheng family, there has been no peace at home!"
The saint did not refute.
She is indeed a girl who gets in the way everywhere.
The more Cheng Lian thought about it, the angrier she got: "Not only did she cause trouble at home, she also colluded with the Yin family and snatched the position of the Saint from Qingxue. I think she is a spy for the Yin family!"
When the Yin family was mentioned, the saint suddenly closed her eyes in annoyance.
Cheng Lian noticed her daughter's expression and asked hurriedly, "Does your head hurt again? Did your mother wake you up by being too loud?"
The Saint shook her head: "No, I just remembered something important."
Cheng Lian asked, "What's the matter?"
The saint touched her big forehead, which looked like a birthday god, and said, "There is a blessing ceremony tomorrow. I am afraid I can't go in my current state."
In the past, if the saint could not go, the ceremony would have to be postponed or cancelled.
But now the Holy Maiden Temple has a new Holy Maiden. Although the formal handover ceremony has not yet been held, she can temporarily take over some of the Holy Maiden's duties.
Cheng Lian also thought of the key point and said worriedly: "It will be disadvantageous for you to let Yin Xiaodie show up so soon."
Cheng Qingxue was rejected by the gods, which had already caused many people to lose interest in the saint.
In the last three months, the Saint must consolidate her power.
If Yin Xiaodie emerges too quickly, many people will go to Yin Xiaodie's camp.
This was not something she was happy to see.
But she was helpless.
If the wound is on the face, you can cover it with a veil, but if the wound is on the forehead, do you have to wear a Central Plains hat? How shameful!
Thinking of this, the saint felt a headache.
…
Su Xiaoxiao and Cheng Sang returned to the yard.
Mei Ji heard about the Saint being kicked into the water by Cheng Sang, and she was so happy about it that she decided to eat two more roasted sweet potatoes tonight! Cheng Sang asked Su Xiaoxiao: "Is Weiwei going out today?"
Su Xiaoxiao said: "I won't go out."
"Hmm..." Cheng Sang looked at his fingers, his eyes rolling around.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her restless appearance and asked with a smile, "Mom wants to go out?"
"Yeah." Cheng Sang nodded honestly.
Su Xiaoxiao tucked her wind-blown hair behind her ears and said, "Well, after being locked up in the mansion for decades, it's time to go out for a walk."
Su Xiaoxiao asked Uncle Quan to prepare a carriage, and she and Mei Ji took Cheng Sang out of the house.
…
On the other side, Wei Ting asked Yuchi Xiu to call the Five Tigers over.
Before Wei Ting fought with the man in white last night, he smeared some spices on his sword.
When fighting, you should be infected by the opponent.
Wuhu is no ordinary macaw, it has an excellent sense of smell.
Wei Ting brought the Five Tigers to the place where they had fought with the man in white last night.
The five tigers sniffed, then flapped their little wings and flew away.
Wei Ting followed him all the way, through the crowded streets, through the sparsely populated alleys, and came to a very ancient old street.
The street is full of old houses, many of which are vacant.
The five tigers flew into a house at the easternmost end.
Wei Ting came to the door and looked at the closed gate.
He hesitated for a moment between sneaking in and going in openly.
He smelled a strong aroma of rice cakes.
Finally, he raised his hand and knocked on the gate.
“Here I come.”
Accompanied by a young man's voice, the gate creaked open.
Brother Ting and Brother Si, who has the strongest brain? There is only one day left for the double bonus, don’t waste your monthly tickets, hurry up and get them.
