Xiao Cunyu was halfway through his words when Princess Baoyi glared at him fiercely, "Xiao Qilang, what do you mean? Do you dare to disobey the imperial order and refuse the marriage?"
If the marriage had to be called off, it should have been her who did. It shouldn't have been like this now. She was being accused by Xiao Cunyu in public.
"Of course I dare not. I just think that maybe our horoscopes are incompatible. After I go back, I decided to ask the abbot of Nantai Temple to tell my fortune to see if we are born to be incompatible. If so, I will pray sincerely and hope that I can live a long life in the hands of the princess." Xiao Cunyu is not stupid.
Refuse the marriage? No matter what the reason, as long as he opened his mouth, it would be disobeying the emperor's order, a serious crime.
The emperor was so gracious that even if he gave her a dog to marry, let alone a noisy princess, she couldn't refuse!
Princess Baoyi was about to get angry, but when she heard these words, she suddenly became furious.
Prince Rui was already annoyed by this mess. "The boat will dock shortly. You all must return to the palace and apologize immediately! Miss Wei, Miss Li, and... Miss Jiang, I will send the imperial physician to your residence shortly. You should rest well."
As for the other palace maids and old women...
Although they also fell into the water, they were the princess's personal maids. It would have been fine if they had not restrained the princess's words and actions, but they actually resorted to violence. They must have been skinned alive if not killed!
The farce ended with a boat trip to the lake.
After a while, we finally reached the shore.
Xiao Cunyu looked back at King Qin, and seeing that he still had a bad aura, he smiled faintly and prepared to leave.
"Seventh Young Master Xiao..." Miss Jiang was supported by the maid, "Seventh Young Master! Thank you so much for saving my life."
She was the most seriously drowned among all the people who fell into the water, and her throat was extremely sore now. The moment Xiao Cunyu pulled her up, she really felt like she had grasped hope, and she felt at ease at the most desperate moment.
and……
She touched it.
In a trance, she vaguely felt that she had touched something that shouldn't be there... When she boarded the boat, she even thought that she had been delusional. After all, Xiao Cunyu's body looked no different from that of a man, so how could there be...
But it's so real.
"You're welcome. Just don't mind that I jumped off the boat to save people too slowly." Xiao Cunyu grinned.
She admitted that although she wanted to save people, she still did not want to meddle in other people's business and wanted to watch others take action. But after watching for a long time, she saw that Jiang Zhi was really about to drown, so she had no choice but to step in.
Miss Jiang hesitated to speak. Looking at Xiao Cunyu's androgynous face, she seemed to be in self-doubt. She opened her mouth and said, "Third Princess... Don't take Third Princess' words to heart. I... I know you are a good person..."
Xiao Cunyu nodded. She was a good person, that's right.
"You should go back and rest early." Xiao Cunyu waved his hand cheerfully and told the person to get out.
Miss Jiang sighed: "I... I just found you..."
Her eyes fell on Xiao Cunyu's chest, but she knew that this matter was important, so she didn't dare to say it directly: "I won't tell anyone. You are my savior, I won't... I won't repay kindness with hatred..."
"Hmm?" Xiao Cunyu was stunned for a moment. What does that mean?
Xiao Cunyu wondered if the lake water had made the girl stupid, as her words were so incoherent.
She didn't think about herself at all. After all, she was a mess in the water and didn't feel anything after being touched a few times.
Xiao Cunyu felt uncomfortable with his clothes sticking to his body, and he didn't want to deal with Miss Jiang. He ran away looking very impatient, especially after experiencing so many things in just one day. This place was like a flood and a beast to him. He wished he could go home immediately and stay away from it.
However, not long after Xiao Cunyu left, the horses in the carriage that was coming to support the king were suddenly startled.
As soon as he stepped on it, the horse went crazy, swaying back and forth, and with a "bang", it threw the king to the ground with his face on the ground.
