Then came those soft, cool lips, with a sweet scent.
"Princess--"
"The princess jumped!"
The surroundings are even more chaotic.
Were they hallucinating? They actually saw the princess jumping into the water to save that lowly slave.
"Hurry, hurry and save the princess! She's afraid of water, she'll die!"
On the shore, Bai Zhi's panicked voice was heard. No one had expected that such a wonderful birthday celebration would be disrupted like this because of a lowly slave.
She swam towards the shore with Pei Yanche, but she didn't notice that the knife hidden in the man's sleeve was approaching her heart inch by inch.
Just as he was about to reach the shore, the hand holding his waist suddenly loosened.
Her body sank rapidly, like a butterfly with broken wings in the lake, with a desolate and broken beauty.
She is afraid of water...
He remembers.
She had nearly drowned when she was young and had been afraid of water ever since, but why did she jump down to save herself just now?
Obviously... obviously this was not within his calculations.
He watched Shen Qianyue's body sinking continuously. He just had to watch quietly, waiting for her to wither and die.
Let her sink to the bottom of the lake and drown.
In this way, he can get rid of Shen Qianyue.
The hand holding the knife kept tightening, but in an instant, he swam towards Shen Qianyue without hesitation, grabbed her slender wrist and pulled her into his arms.
His cold lips touched hers, continuously channeling the internal energy that could save her life into him.
If she had been a moment later, she would have died.
No……
He didn't want to save her, he just didn't want her to die so easily and quickly.
The pain she brought upon me will be repaid double in the future, so how could I let her die so easily?
Yes, that must be the case!
Pei Yanche was thinking this in his heart, but he didn't know that the panic in his heart had already begun to take root.
When he realizes this one day in the future, it will be like an overwhelming army that is difficult to resist.
"Quick! Call the medical officer!"
Bai Zhi screamed in panic, watching Pei Yanche holding Shen Qianyue and striding towards Longxiang Pavilion.
The footsteps were more hurried than ever before.
The person in his arms looked as if he had suddenly lost his life, fragile and pitiful.
He was so panicked.
Shen Qianyue, you can’t die!
At least I can't die so easily!
He hasn't taken revenge yet, hasn't doubled back the pain he's suffered, how dare you die!
"Princess!"
Liu Yunu ran over in a panic, and when he saw Pei Yanche standing outside the door, soaking wet, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.
A punch hit Pei Yanche's face.
"You lowly thing! If it weren't for you, the princess wouldn't have done this! If anything happens to the princess, His Majesty will make sure that you and the entire Southern Kingdom's royal family die miserably!"
Pei Yanche silently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Will the entire Southern Kingdom royal family die miserably?
Liu Yunu wanted to rush in, but Bai Zhi stopped her outside and said, "Master Liu, the doctor is treating the patient inside. Please wait outside."
Liu Yunu had no choice but to stand outside and wait, and Lan Sichen also came with her.
He glanced at Pei Yanche, who was soaking wet and standing there, motionless like a statue, and finally stopped talking.
"The princess is awake!"
Hearing this, a crack appeared on Pei Yanche's face.
woke up?
Now that he's awake, he doesn't need to stay here.
Pei Yanche turned and left, but Liu Yunu was about to go in. Bai Zhi glanced at the thin figure.
He quickly called out, "Prince Pei, the princess wants you in."
The man's back suddenly froze.
"What did you say? Why did the princess summon that lowly slave in? Why not me?"
Liu Yunu's eyes widened, her expression almost twisted and ferocious.
"I'm sorry, but you are not allowed to enter Longxiang Pavilion without the princess's summons. Please go back, Master Liu and Master Lan."
"I want to see the princess! That lowly slave must have drugged the princess with some kind of magic potion. I want to see the princess!"
Liu Yunu shouted.
"Master Liu, please stop yelling. If you upset the princess, I'm afraid she won't want to see you anymore."
After all, he came from the Minister's Mansion, so Lan Sichen is always so calm and elegant.
When passing by Pei Yanche, Lan Sichen said, "Since the princess only wants to see you, then please, Prince Pei, take good care of Her Highness and don't let the princess get hurt again."
Pei Yanche didn't say anything. Liu Yunu glared at him fiercely, as if warning him, "Pei Yanche, don't even think about snatching the princess from me. We have a long way to go!"
If Lan Sichen hadn't pulled him back, he would probably have had a fight with Pei Yanche.
"Why are you pulling me?"
Liu Yunu broke free from his hand, full of anger and dissatisfaction.
"He is the crown prince after all, and now he has the princess's favor. Have you forgotten yesterday's stable boy and the kitchen boy who was beaten to death? It seems that the princess is not just playing around."
Lan Sichen advised kindly.
Now the princess seemed like a different person, becoming more cruel and ruthless than before.
Liu Yunu was no fool, so she simply kept quiet and stopped talking about the matter. She then asked, "Why didn't Brother Lan leave when the princess sent someone out of the palace that day?"
It was such a good opportunity. If he just left, he could marry the girl he loved.
Lan Sichen's eyes flickered slightly: "The girl has already been promised to someone else. I will no longer have any thoughts of marrying her even if I leave this mansion. Moreover, once I leave this mansion, I will no longer be a pure man. No girl will dare to marry me in the future."
Lan Sichen smiled bitterly.
