Chapter 31 Hit Someone in the Face
He had originally been competing with the prince's snobbery, but during this period, he showed clear signs of defeat.
As for the rest, there is no way to know about Song Dynasty porcelain.
Was what happened back then really just a coincidence?
Song Ci didn't think much about it and was about to turn around and leave, telling herself not to get involved. She had other things to do and it would be unwise to do so. But after taking a few steps, she paused.
Her face was filled with complex emotions. She had already died once before, so why should she be so timid and let another woman follow the same old path and face a tragic life before her? She had worked so hard to change her own fate and the fate of her family, so why not lend a hand and help Princess Le Yi, who was also at the crossroads of fate?
Thinking of this, she immediately said to Wanxiang without hesitation, "I remember you can swim. Be quiet and go into the water to save someone for me."
Wanxiang was stunned and was about to speak to persuade him, but when she saw the determination on Song Ci's face, she closed her mouth again.
"I understand!"
Walking to the lake, a dark blue skirt was floating on the water. Her white hands struggled desperately to emerge from the water, but her strength was getting weaker and weaker.
There were footsteps in the distance, and the two did not dare to delay.
Wanxiang tightened the belt around her waist, and then with one nimble movement, she dived into the water. Her movements were quick and skillful, and she made very little noise.
Soon, she swam silently to the side of the struggling person, held Le Yi's waist, and wanted to swim back.
Zhou Leyi was no fool when she first emerged from the water. She knew she was being tricked and was furious. She struggled with her hands and feet, trying to push Wanxiang away.
"Princess, we are here to rescue you. The people who are plotting against you are already here. Don't waste time."
Zhou Leyi realized that the voice was a female one. Seeing that she was dressed like a maid, her eyes froze for a moment, and the vigilance she had just shown disappeared.
Wanxiang paddled skillfully, but dragging a person was too tiring. When she got ashore, she almost collapsed on the ground like a dead fish, not wanting to move.
"Wanxiang, we have to leave. The people are getting closer."
Wanxiang struggled to get up, but her whole body was limp and she couldn't straighten her back at all.
at last........
Song Ci bared his teeth, grabbed one person with each hand, and walked desperately in one direction.
Every step requires extra effort.
The advantage of the big house was reflected at this moment. She heard the sound approaching, and helplessly, she pushed open a door that looked like it had not been used for a long time, walked in, and closed the door neatly.
After a while, the door opened again. She held the dust-covered porcelain vase in her hand and calmly brushed off the dust with her fingers to cover the footprints.
Although it's not perfect, this is all we can do at the moment.
“Where are the people?”
"Could he have drowned?"
"I don't know either. The people below said that the princess has fallen into the water."
"Fall in the water? Bullshit." The man was about to curse, but after thinking for a moment, he said, "Forget it, let's leave first."
Then the sound of several chaotic footsteps went away.
After making sure that the voice had left, Song Ci breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look behind her. She saw Wan Xiang, who was soaked, and Princess Le Yi, who was also soaked and looked confused.
She thought for a moment and said, "Princess, the person has left."
Le Yi nodded and sneezed.
"Although I don't know who you are...but thank you for saving me today." Le Yi's face was pale and she looked pitiful.
"No need. Princess, is there anything else I can do for you?"
Le Yi nodded, explained the attire of her personal maid, and asked Song Ci to pass on the message for her, and she would wait here. Her clothes were wet and her hair was messy, she really couldn't go out like this.
Song Ci nodded and walked away.
Princess Le Yi called out several times from behind, trying to ask her name, but she didn't hear it.
After going out and walking for a while, a maid showed them the way. The two of them walked straight to that end. As soon as they reached a crowded place, they saw Princess Le Yi's maid with a panicked look on her face, asking questions everywhere.
Song Ci walked up to her calmly, brushed past her and whispered something.
The maid turned pale, looked at her deeply, turned around and walked away quickly.
Wanxiang didn't know when she changed her clothes, but fortunately she was a maid and her clothes were not eye-catching, so no one noticed that she had changed her clothes.
The two of them thought they had done it perfectly, but Pei Ji, who was chatting with the prince under a tree, keenly noticed that a large area of Song Ci's embroidered shoes was wet.
Zhou Tianyi: "Mr. Pei doesn't like to go out, so it's rare for me to meet him."
Pei Ji came back to his senses and smiled faintly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince knows that I have always been in poor health and cannot go out all the time."
"Next time, I'll host you. Mr. Pei, please do me the honor of getting together."
"Okay, it's a deal."
Zhou Tianyi had a smile on his face.
Song Rouxi and Song Ying were chatting with other young ladies in the crowd.
Talking about the prince's affectionate attitude towards Song Rouxi just now, everyone was curious about the relationship between the two. After all, the prince didn't have a wife, and he didn't even have a concubine.
There have been princes since ancient times, but this is the first time that one has such a clean backyard, and many women have become interested in him.
"My acquaintance with the prince is also a coincidence. The prince is a very nice person." Song Rouxi did not give a clear answer, and the answer was also very ambiguous.
The eyes of the young ladies flickered slightly, and some smart ones began to curry favor with them.
"Miss Song is really pretty. No wonder the prince noticed you. Even I was stunned."
"That's right, where does Miss Song live? Is there anyone in your family serving as an official in the court? We can get together and have fun together in the future."
Song Rouxi's face froze. After she announced her father's official position, everyone's enthusiastic expressions faded.
Song Ci stood not far away and saw this scene, feeling mocking in his heart.
In the previous life, the eldest wife had money to pave the way, and Uncle Song's official position was one level higher than the one given casually by the current prince.
The first level is a threshold, and people in Beijing are very discerning about who you treat.
The scenes where Song Rouxi was surrounded and fawned over by others in the past have become less frequent.
Miss Lian tried to smooth things over and change the subject, "Sister Song is gentle and dignified. I dream of having a sister like her. It's a pity that some people don't know how to appreciate their blessings."
Who doesn’t talk about others behind their backs?
When this was mentioned, everyone immediately put aside the topic of family background. Many latecomers listened with great interest to her talk about how arrogant and domineering the third daughter of the Song family was.
She raised her voice and cursed Song Ci with exaggerated words, and only then did she feel relieved. Turning around, she met a pair of deep eyes not far from Song Ci.
She paused, feeling a little uncomfortable being caught on the spot.
But she recovered quickly. What did she say? Who made Miss Song the Third to make Sister Song unhappy?
"Song Ci, where have you been? My elder sister and I have been looking for you for a long time. Even if you don't like my elder sister and me, you shouldn't run around. This is someone else's house, and you are bringing shame to our Song family."
