Feng Fendai was shocked. She originally wanted to push Chenyu, but she didn't expect that she pushed Xiangrong into the water. If you want to chase the legend of the wilderness, you have to be quick.
Seeing that Xiang Rong was about to disappear, her heart began to beat wildly, and she kept shouting at the eunuch who was rowing the boat: "What are you still standing there for? Go down and save people! Didn't you see someone fell into the water?"
The eunuch spread his hands helplessly and said, "Miss, I can't swim at all. Besides, even if I can swim, it's useless. It's such a cold lake. If I jump in, I will die."
Fendai turned pale with fear. Even if her original intention was to push Chenyu, she was only a ten-year-old girl. How could she think so much? She didn't know whether the lake water was cold or not. She had never thought that falling into the lake would kill someone. She just wanted to embarrass Chenyu. What's more, there were so many boats on the lake, and there were eunuchs. If someone fell into the water, they should be rescued immediately. But why did the eunuch say that he couldn't swim at all?
"It's not the first or second time that we've rowed a boat on the lake. Over the years, we've never heard of any young lady being so restless as to fall off the boat." The eunuch's words resolved her doubts, but at the same time he also mocked them, meaning - you asked for it.
Fen Dai was extremely anxious. She didn't care whether Xiang Rong lived or died, but she absolutely couldn't let Xiang Rong die in her hands. Feng Chenyu was still standing here. As long as she opened her mouth to prove it, everyone would believe that she was the one who pushed Xiang Rong into the water, because that was the fact.
She clung to the edge of the boat and desperately shouted into the lake: "Third sister! Third sister!"
Meixiang, the maid Xiangrong brought with him, was almost going crazy with anxiety and reached into the water to fish it out.
But there was no reply from Xiangrong. Not only did he not reply, but even the ripples in the lake that were caused by Xiangrong falling into the water gradually subsided.
Feng Chenyu leaned close to Fendai's ear and whispered, "Fourth sister murdered third sister, why?"
Fen Dai was sweating profusely, her hands were clenched into fists and trembling, and she suddenly felt determined to fight Chen Yu to the death. She turned her head and glared at Chen Yu fiercely, and the two of them were nose to nose, and it seemed that they were about to fight.
At this time, there was a "splash" sound, and another person jumped into the lake.
The two were startled and turned back to look.
At this time, more and more boats were surrounding them, and the ladies on the boats were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They all held on to the pillars of the boats and dared not move.
The person who jumped down was a man who looked like a guard. After going down, he used his internal energy to sink quickly and soon caught up with Xiangrong's speed. Then he reached out and scooped her up, successfully bringing her to the surface of the water together.
Fendai breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to say, "The person has finally been rescued," but when she looked at Xiangrong's pale face again, she swallowed the words back.
Is this even possible to survive?
The guard brought the person to the surface and immediately swam in one direction. Fendai shouted anxiously: "Our boat is over here!" But the other party ignored her and took Xiangrong straight to another big ship.
Chenyu squinted her eyes to look at the big ship, and then she discovered that the pavilion on the ship was made of white jade, with occasional gold inlays, and was extremely gorgeous.
At this time, outside the boat pavilion of the big ship, there was a man standing with his hands behind his back, looking anxiously at the two people swimming in the water.
Xuan Tianhua?
Chenyu frowned, and when the guard brought Xiangrong to the side of the boat, Xuan Tianhua took the initiative to bend down, stretched out his hand, and personally carried Xiangrong to the boat. Then he laid her flat on the boat board, and then directed a maid beside him to say something.
Afterwards, the maid took the initiative to step forward and patted Xiangrong and fed her medicine. After a while, Xiangrong, with a pale face, woke up slowly.
Chenyu's jealousy suddenly surged up, and without thinking, her body suddenly tilted, and with a scream, she dived into the water.
Fendai was speechless. Were they going to hold a meeting in the lake today? Why did Feng Chenyu jump in by herself? If she wanted to fall into the water by herself, why did she change her appearance just now?
She felt that her brain was not enough, and then she heard the eunuch who was rowing the boat say, "Your Highness the Seventh Prince is kind-hearted." She then looked across and saw that the Seventh Prince Xuan Tianhua was half-squatting on the boat and talking to Xiangrong.
Fen Dai understood instantly, Feng Chenyu was jealous?
Hahaha! If this wasn't in the palace, she really wanted to laugh out loud. Feng Chenyu, don't you open your eyes to see what kind of person the Seventh Prince is? How could he allow you to defile him? Even if you get that person, as long as your affairs are made public one day, the Seventh Prince doesn't need to do anything, even the curses of the world can drown you.
Feng Chenyu's falling into the water caused a wave of panic among the people. Some young ladies began to get scared and kept asking the boatman, "Didn't they say it was very stable and nothing would happen? Why did two people fall into the water one after another?"
However, some people were sharp-eyed and saw how the water fell into the lake, but they couldn't figure it out, so they knelt down and asked, "Why did the eldest daughter of the Feng family jump into the lake by herself?"
Xuan Tianhua naturally saw this scene, but he did not say anything. He was putting a thick cloak on Xiangrong himself, and then whispered to her: "Be patient, someone will take you to change clothes when you get ashore."
Xiangrong stared at her wet clothes and burst into tears: "I'm sorry, I wet the clothes you gave me! Oh, I'm so useless!" When a child starts crying, there is no way to describe his tears and snot. He doesn't even care to call out names, just calls you and me.
Xuan Tianhua was not angry, he just looked at the child helplessly. "Don't cry, I don't blame you, if the clothes are wet, just wash them and dry them. If it doesn't work, I'll give you another one."
Xiangrong looked at him with her eyes wide open, trying desperately to suppress an impulse. She remembered An's words and her own identity, and she knew that no matter how much she wanted to throw herself into the arms of the Seventh Prince, she had to endure it.
Little did she know that in Xuan Tianhua's eyes, she was actually just a child. A ten-year-old girl couldn't even be considered a woman.
Originally, apart from Feng Yuheng, he had no idea about the other children of the Feng family, let alone any good impression of them.
But Feng Yuheng always took this little girl with him in the past, and even this time, he specifically asked him to take good care of the girl and even made some nice winter clothes for her.
He knew that he could not send it to Feng Mansion in Feng Yuheng's name, so he could only send it in his own name. Of course, doing so would definitely lead to many speculations from those who were interested, but he didn't care. He was Xuan Tianhua, known as the most extraordinary man in the world. He was not afraid of being gossiped about or being speculated about. No matter what happened, he did it, never regretted it, and never explained it to anyone.
The same thing is happening with this little girl now.
"Get up." He reached out to help Xiangrong up, "Go inside the boathouse. It will be warmer."
Xiangrong was helped up by him. Although she was shivering with cold, her heart was warm. The shoulders that Xuan Tianhua had held were also warm, and her cheeks were even hot.
My little heart was pounding, and I wished that hand on my shoulder would not be removed. Unfortunately, the warmth was soon gone.
“Your Highness, do you still want to save the one in the water?” The guard who rescued Xiangrong returned to Xuan Tianhua, soaking wet but not trembling.
Xuan Tianhua looked into the water and saw that the fish was sinking faster than he had expected. After a while, it was probably half frozen.
"Go and rescue her!" Then he added: "After rescuing her, send her to the boat where she is already. Leave the rest to the palace servants."
The guard nodded and jumped back into the water.
Soon, Chenyu was also brought to the surface by him.
Feng Chenyu was a little stronger than Xiang Rong, and she didn't faint. But when she saw the guard who saved her was going to swim to the other side, she refused to do it and started to push him out, refusing to return to Fen Dai's boat even if she died.
There was an impolite mocking voice coming from the boat on the lake, and then a voice was heard saying: "Since she doesn't want to come up, let her stay in the water!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw another large ship approaching. The pavilion on the ship was surrounded by a number of gray curtains. Inside the curtains, a man and a woman were sitting opposite each other and drinking tea.
The man said that, and the woman laughed, "How funny! In such a cold day, they all fell into the water one by one."
Someone recognized the two people and whispered, "It's the Fourth Prince and the young lady of the Bu family."
As they were talking, the boat had already docked with Xuan Tianhua's white jade boat. Xuan Tianhua took a look inside and took the initiative to say, "Fourth Brother."
Xuan Tianyi nodded, "Seventh brother is in a good mood and is still thinking about saving people."
Xuan Tianhua smiled faintly and said nothing.
Bu Nishang stood up from Xuan Tianyi's side, walked out of the boat pavilion, bowed towards Xuan Tianhua, and said, "Nishang greets His Majesty the Seventh Prince."
Xuan Tianhua raised his hand and said, "No need to be so polite." His attitude was calm, yet also extremely unfamiliar.
Bu Nishang thought about the warmth between the princes and Feng Yuheng at the last palace banquet, calling them "brother-in-law" and "sister-in-law" so affectionately. But why was she, who was also the prince's engaged wife, treated completely differently?
Now that Feng Yuheng was dead, she turned her anger to the other children of the Feng family. Bu Nishang glanced at Xiangrong who was standing timidly beside Xuan Tianhua, and then glanced at Chenyu who was still struggling with the guards in the water and was about to be sacrificed, and snorted coldly and said, "The people of the Feng family are mean."
Xiangrong couldn't stand it and said aggrievedly: "How can Miss Bu talk like this?"
"Who do you think you are?" Bu Nishang's eyes lit up immediately. "A concubine's daughter, do you have the right to talk to me?"
"You..." Xiangrong's eyes suddenly turned red with anger. At this moment, she wanted to refute Feng Yuheng's words on the spot if she didn't like what he said in the past, but she tried to organize her words for a long time but couldn't figure them out.
Xuan Tianhua spoke for her and said, "The daughter of the Bu family? With such upbringing, she is really not worthy of marrying into our royal family."
As soon as he spoke, Xuan Tianyi could no longer sit still. Although Xuan Tianhua was his younger brother, the emperor's sons were still related to each other. Xuan Tianhua was raised by Concubine Yun, and in Tianwu's heart, he was the same as Xuan Tianming.
"Seventh brother, don't get angry. It's common for girls to quarrel." Xuan Tianyi spoke up to help, but what he said was not pleasant to hear at all.
Xuan Tianhua did not give him any face, he just shook his head and said: "Fourth brother, please do not blame father. Father arranged this marriage for you because he saw the Bu family as a family of scholars. Miss Bu must be a noble person, but he did not expect Miss Bu to be taught so foolishly. This is really not what father intended."
What could Xuan Tianyi say? He had always known that Xuan Tianhua looked like an immortal, but in fact, he was just a smiling devil. Anyone who offended him would probably suffer a fate worse than offending Xuan Tianming.
"How could it be, how could it be." He responded casually while glaring at Bu Nishang, "Hurry up and apologize to Miss Feng!"
