Prince Rui was somewhat disappointed. He didn't expect the Third Princess's mind to change so quickly.
Her liking for Xiao Qilang was a very good thing for him. Not only could it annoy the Crown Prince, but Xiao Qilang was also very wealthy. If the Third Princess really captured someone, he would be able to breathe a sigh of relief financially. Even if Xiao Qilang really had no money, the Xiao family behind him would be enough for him.
So, at this time, Prince Rui glared at Princess Baoyi and told her to stop making trouble.
Princess Baoyi felt that even her third brother did not understand her, and was very depressed for a while.
Just at this moment, Xiao Cunyu suddenly frowned and stared at the lake.
At this moment, a group of people were about to take a boat to cruise on the lake, but Xiao Cunyu stopped where he was, looking deep in thought.
"Mr. Xiao Qilang, what are you doing?" King Rui took a deep breath and felt that he should be a little more patient with Xiao Qilang.
Even though this person had embarrassed him many times, if he thought about it carefully, if Xiao Qi could listen to the prince, why couldn't he listen to him? Now, and with the relationship of the Third Imperial Sister in the future, Xiao Qilang should also know how to distinguish between close and distant relatives and know who his heart is with, so that he can have a bright future.
Xiao Cunyu pointed to the lakeside and said, "I counted with my fingers and there's a body nearby."
"..." King Rui's eyelids jumped, "What is it?"
"Third brother! Look at him..." Princess Baoyi really wanted to cry when she heard this.
So embarrassing!
Xiao Cunyu pointed at the compass and said, "I know a little bit about magic. I see a faint aura of death over there, so there must be a body. I've been thinking about accumulating more merit these days. Now that I've seen it, I must fish this body out and bury it properly!"
When King Rui heard this, he wondered if he had met a fool.
What day was it today? He, the dignified Prince Rui, had invited Xiao Qilang out for an outing. They were supposed to be having a boat trip on the lake and chatting, but Xiao Qilang hadn't said a word before he'd already offended his Third Imperial Sister. Instead of trying to redeem himself, he was actually thinking about digging up a corpse!?
"Xiao Qillang, let's talk about these things later..." King Rui felt that he had to use all his patience on Xiao Qillang.
He was obviously extremely annoyed by this man, but in order to annoy the prince, he had to endure it.
"Your Highness, how can we talk about human life later? Just like when I found out that the prince consort was fake, if you thought it was not appropriate to bother me about such a big matter as the wedding banquet and left it to later, then more people would have been harmed." Xiao Cunyu argued.
As he spoke, he moved a little closer to the lake.
He looked around and pointed at the guards around King Rui: "Can you swim? Can you go down and retrieve the body?"
He went out today, but he didn't bring anyone with him.
She actually wanted to bring Tieyi with her, but she was afraid that Tieyi's fierce and terrifying appearance would make her look even more outrageous than Lin Xia Wuchen.
The guard looked at King Rui.
King Rui sighed and said, "Go get it."
He didn't go to get it even though Xiao Cunyu asked him to, which made him seem less magnanimous than the prince.
Thinking about the things that the prince allowed Xiao Cunyu to do... Although it was ridiculous, the prince benefited in the end, so... it is not impossible to salvage this body.
After hearing this, the guards immediately found a few people who knew how to swim and went into the water to take a look.
Some of the gentlemen had heard a lot about Xiao Cunyu's recent troubles. Now that they saw that she was going to dig up the body again, they became interested and wanted to see it with their own eyes.
Everyone stretched their heads to look, and they felt that this nosy Xiao Cunyu was much more beautiful than the surrounding scenery.
The weather was hot, so going into the water wasn't difficult. Not long after, the guards resurfaced, saying, "Your Highness, there is indeed a skeleton down there. There's quite a bit of waterweed on the bottom of the lake. It must have gotten entangled after falling into the water, so it hasn't surfaced yet."
