"Hmm...you're so mean...wait, why is it so quiet outside all of a sudden?"
"It's getting late, all the other pleasure boats have gone home. Nothing to do, come on, let's continue..."
“No, that’s not right.” The Seventh Princess grabbed Li Junru’s shoulder.
Meeting Li Junru's lustful gaze, she said, "Quick, go check it out! Ah, the ship seems to be sinking."
"What?"
"Quick, look!"
That despicable couple, they've been making love several times in the middle of the night before finally waking up because it's too quiet outside.
Of course, this ship should have sunk long ago.
On a nearby pleasure boat, Xie Lingqin sat lazily by the small window, glancing at Li Junru and the Seventh Princess's sinking boat. Her gaze then shifted to the opposite side, where the official boat was moored, where the Jingzhao Yin and Zhongyong Hou, along with their soldiers, looked embarrassed. A smile played on her lips.
This is going to be a good show.
“Miss, what do you think the Prefect of the Capital and the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery are thinking right now?” Zihe asked with sympathy.
Xie Lingqin's starry eyes flickered as she picked up the wine beside her and took a small sip. "What else could I be thinking? Originally, I was wondering whether to go in or not. But right now, I'm probably thinking, 'Come out quickly, come out quickly!' I haven't even figured this out yet, and the ship is starting to sink again..."
"I never imagined that the dignified and virtuous Seventh Princess would actually be having an affair with the Minister of War's son, Young Master Li... I really couldn't have seen it before." Zihe sighed endlessly.
Xie Lingqin straightened her sleeves, looking calm and content. "I can only say that the Seventh Princess is really careful in her actions. Before, she had pushed my cousin and me to such a point, but neither of us could see through her feelings. It was only when we came to this place that we let down our guard. She is clearly very clever."
"However, Miss, how did you know that the one having an affair with the Seventh Princess was Young Master Li?"
Zihe is still beyond my comprehension.
Xie Lingqin raised her finger, signaling Zihe to be quiet, and then pointed to the painted boat next to her.
The pleasure boat had completely sunk. Li Junru called out for a long time but no one answered. He immediately wrapped the Seventh Princess in a blanket, picked her up, and tried to fly out.
After all, once the boat sank, they could already see the Prefect of Jingzhao, the Marquis of Zhongyong, and others on the opposite side of the pleasure boat.
There was no time to analyze what happened; he managed to get ashore thanks to his light-footed abilities...
However, the vast net that had been prepared in advance was cast down at this moment.
The two were instantly caught in the net.
With a "thud," it landed in front of the Prefect of the Capital and the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.
The Prefect of the Capital watched, his hands clenched, his heart pounding in his chest.
They thought they were catching a thief, but instead of catching the thief or finding their daughter, they caught someone...
The Seventh Princess and the eldest son of the Ministry of War...
This is really going to escalate.
"Cough cough..." On the side, Marquis Zhongyong could only clench his fists and cough lightly as he watched the man and woman trapped in the net drifting downstream.
How could he not recognize the Seventh Princess, Li Junru?
Moreover, what the two of them just said was clearly an attempt to frame Zongzheng Xu...
Although it was late at night, it didn't mean no one was around. On the shore and by the pleasure boat, the people who had initially thought the Prefect of the Capital and the Marquis of Zhongyong were out catching thieves had gathered to watch the spectacle, were now...
After a moment of silence, the world erupted in a collective outburst.
"The Seventh Princess, it's the Seventh Princess, I've seen her before... The Seventh Princess is having an affair with a man..."
"That's the eldest son of the Minister of War..."
"Waaaaah... Young Master Li is actually this kind of person..." Even the girl who secretly admired him burst into tears on the spot.
"I knew it! How could someone as kind-hearted, humble, and polite as Young Master Zongzheng be a womanizer and even beat up the princess? This..."
"It was the princess who framed them. I have good hearing; I heard everything just now. The two of them conspired to elope..."
With so many people, public opinion rises like a storm.
Even if the Prefect of the Capital wanted to use his orders to stop the noise, he couldn't.
In particular, upon closer inspection, the man and woman covered by the net were disheveled, their private parts exposed, making it impossible to come up with any excuse.
"How dare you! You're all forbidden to speak! Shut up!"
After being shocked, the Seventh Princess finally came to her senses and, hearing the harsh words, rebuked them.
However, this will only make her look even more shameful.
Li Junru's face turned deathly pale. How could things have turned out like this...?
"What are you waiting for? Take them away."
At this moment, on the shore, the wise king suddenly pushed through the crowd and walked over, his face grim as he shouted.
The Prefect of Jingzhao and the Marquis of Zhongyong immediately realized what was happening, but...
Should we lift, grab, or support...?
After all, the two of them looked like this...
---Aside---
Well, so now that the Crown Prince and Qin'er have held hands, it's not too late to look at some other kinds of meat since we can't eat the meat yet.
Okay, applause!
