Princess Fuqing was quietly dragged to the lake by the eunuchs.
The eunuch stopped and whispered, "Your Highness, don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame your bad luck."
For ordinary people, killing someone is not that easy, let alone killing the legitimate princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The eunuch's hands were shaking as he pushed Princess Fuqing hard into the lake.
A cold wind blew from behind, and the eunuch tilted his head reflexively, and the stone that was supposed to hit the back of his head hit his shoulder instead.
The eunuch turned around in pain.
The Fourteenth Princess failed, her eyes filled with fear, but she threw the stone in her hand at the eunuch's face without hesitation.
The eunuch screamed and blood gushed out of his nose.
At this time, Princess Fuqing had already fallen into the lake and began to sink.
The Fourteenth Princess threw the stone away, rushed forward and grabbed Princess Fuqing's arm tightly, and shouted at the same time: "Someone wants to harm Princess Fuqing, help me--"
The teenage girl's voice was high-pitched and thin, and it could be heard from far away.
The eunuch wiped his face but did not run away. Instead, he took a step closer and pushed the Fourteenth Princess down. He also held down the person struggling in the water with his hands to prevent her from showing up.
Gurgle, gurgle, strings of bubbles come out.
Only when he heard footsteps did the eunuch wash the blood off his face and flee in a hurry.
The Fourteenth Princess who was sinking in the water no longer had the strength to struggle. Her long hair spread out like seaweed, covering her pale cheeks and purple lips, but she never let go of Princess Fuqing's hand.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, but everything in front of her was blurry. She could not see the blue sky or the beautiful scenery of the clusters of flowers.
At this moment, the Fourteenth Princess, whose consciousness was about to fade, suddenly had a thought: she now understood why her Thirteenth Sister could never get enough of this world.
It's great to see.
A tear rolled down the corner of Princess Fourteen's eye.
The first ones to rush to the lake were two eunuchs. One of them had sharp eyes and saw the eunuch's back as he ran away.
He was about to chase after them when another eunuch stomped his feet and stopped him: "Why are you still chasing? The two princesses are in the water. Save the two princesses first!"
The two eunuchs could not swim, but they still jumped into the water to save the man, and did not forget to shout loudly.
Soon more and more palace maids arrived, and a eunuch who was not there to rescue quickly went to Kunning Palace to report the news.
In Kunning Palace, the queen was inexplicably uneasy. She took a sip of tea and asked the palace maid, "The two princesses haven't arrived yet?"
"The two princes haven't come yet."
The queen turned the teacup around and ordered, "Go and greet them. The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is ready. They both like it."
As soon as she finished speaking, a palace maid rushed in with a pale face: "Empress, it's bad--"
The queen's hands trembled, and she asked quickly, "What's wrong?"
The palace maid knelt before the queen and cried, "Your Highnesses fell into the water--"
With a loud bang, the teacup in the queen's hand fell to pieces.
She stood up suddenly and asked sharply as she walked out, "Where did you fall into the water?"
"Bi Bo Lake--" The palace maid who reported the news lowered her head, not daring to look at the empress's expression.
The queen's heart sank.
Bi Bo Lake is on the road from Ci Ning Temple to Kun Ning Temple, but you have to go around the rockery to get close to it. Fuqing and her friends are not playful people, so how could they fall into the water?
The empress did not have time to think about it and hurried to the Bi Bo Lake, followed by a group of palace maids.
At the edge of Bi Bo Lake, Princess Fuqing and the Fourteenth Princess were pulled up one after another, and several palace maids were trying to give them first aid.
The queen saw her daughter lying on the ground with her eyes closed, and her head exploded with anger.
"How is the princess? Where is the imperial physician? Where is the imperial physician?" Princess Fuqing's accident made the empress confused for a while.
Both the palace maids who were rescuing and those who were watching turned pale and trembled.
Everyone knows that even a miracle doctor is helpless when faced with a drowning person, so what can the imperial physician do?
Instead of waiting for the imperial physician, it is better to try our best to control the water for the two princesses. With luck, they may wake up.
Just as everyone was thinking this, Princess Fuqing suddenly coughed up two mouthfuls of water.
The queen was overjoyed. She rushed over and grabbed Princess Fuqing's wrist, crying, "A Quan, A Quan, what happened to you?"
Princess Fuqing forced herself to open her eyes and glance at the empress, then closed them again.
The queen was terrified: "A Quan--"
The imperial physician who rushed over hurriedly advised: "Her Royal Highness has woken up. From now on, keeping warm is the most important thing. Let me take care of the Empress."
When the Queen heard what the Imperial Physician said, she felt relieved. She stepped aside and watched the Imperial Physician instruct the palace servants to carry Princess Fuqing away. She was startled and suddenly looked at the Fourteenth Princess.
"How is Princess Fourteen?"
Some palace maid had spread a piece of clothing on the ground, and the soaking wet Fourteenth Princess was lying on it. Two or three palace maids were surrounding her, squeezing her abdomen together.
But the Fourteenth Princess did not have the good luck of Princess Fuqing, and there was no movement for a long time.
The queen walked over quickly, her face pale, and asked again, "How is Princess Fourteen?"
The palace maid who came to the rescue continued to control the water for the Fourteenth Princess silently, not knowing how to respond.
The queen looked at this scene, her body trembling slightly, and suddenly she thought of something, and said hastily: "Use your mouth to help the Fourteenth Princess breathe!"
The Prince of Yan had used this method to save Chun Ge'er, the son of the deposed crown prince. She had also learned about it after the news reached the palace.
At that time, I was just curious, and never thought that I would face it one day.
The palace maids who came to rescue were stunned, not understanding what the empress meant.
The Queen was very anxious, so she simply bent down and personally checked whether there was any foreign object blocking the Fourteenth Princess' mouth and nose.
A palace maid hurriedly said, "I have already cleaned out the foreign objects in the princess's mouth and nose."
The queen bit her lip, took a deep breath and passed the air into the Fourteenth Princess's mouth.
The Queen's action immediately caused all the palace ladies to look at each other in surprise.
Why did the Queen kiss the Fourteenth Princess?
Although there were doubts, no one dared to ask at this time.
The Queen took a few breaths like this and looked at the Fourteenth Princess. Then she realized that she still had to press on the chest to help the drowning person recover her breathing.
She pressed it several times hastily, but didn't know if her movements were correct, so she continued to breathe in and out in a panic.
This went on for a long time. The queen was already panting, her face flushed, and she had no strength to move anymore.
The maidservant beside her hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please let this servant come."
The queen nodded slightly.
Two palace maids took over the queen's actions, and two quarters of an hour passed in the blink of an eye, but the Fourteenth Princess had no reaction at all.
The other imperial physician who was waiting on the side was about to speak but hesitated, and finally could not help but said: "Your Majesty, please let me take a look."
The Queen's expression kept changing, and finally she nodded. Looking at the blue-faced Fourteenth Princess, she had a bad feeling in her heart.
The palace maid made way and handed the case over to the imperial physician.
After the imperial physician examined her, he shook his head, stood up, bowed deeply to the empress, and said in a sad tone: "Your Majesty, please accept my condolences. The princess has passed away..."
