Tang Shishi's intuition was wrong. Standing by the lake, Lu Yufei shouted anxiously. When she saw Tang Shishi, she hurriedly asked, "Miss Tang, does anyone here know how to drink water? Third sister, she doesn't know how to use water."
Lu Yufei grew up in the northwest and couldn't swim, and the maids in Lu's house were all landlubbers. At this moment, Lu Yuji fell into the water, constantly struggling and calling for help, and he was about to sink.
Tang Shishi looked at the dry gravel road on the ground, then looked at Lu Yuji in the water, frowning slightly.
Is there such a coincidence in the world? They just found out that King Jing was going to appoint Lu Yufei as his concubine, and Lu Yufei's concubine fell into the water in King Jing's mansion. The road by the lake is not easy to walk, but King Jing has reinforced it with stones, and it didn't rain last night. The road is dry and flat at the moment, how could it slip and slide down
Tang Shishi saved others by himself, and couldn't help but think in the dark. She suspected that Lu Yuji did it on purpose.
Tang Shishi stood by the lake, and did not mean to go into the water to save people. If he really stumbled and fell into the water, Tang Shishi might hesitate, but if the other party did it on purpose, then Tang Shishi would not take risks.
Zhou Shunhua and several others also rushed over. Feng Qian looked at the stones on the ground and asked suspiciously, "Why did you fall into the water?"
Tang Shishi shook his head and said, "Who knows."
Lu Yuji's maid kept calling for help, and her voice was about to cry. Their movement here attracted more and more people. When Tang Shishi and Feng Qian suspected Lu Yuji, Zhou Shunhua suddenly moved. Zhou Shunhua quickly removed the jewelry on his head and hurriedly stuffed it into Ren Yujun's hands, then jumped into the water without looking back.
She moved so fast that everyone on the shore was startled. Feng Qian touched her heart and said in surprise, "Sister Zhou went to save people? She actually knows how to drink water."
Tang Shishi was also surprised. Looking at Zhou Shunhua's movements, her brows became more and more frowning: "No, she's not very good at water. She's going to sink!"
Rescuing a drowning person is a very dangerous thing. Out of survival instinct, a drowning person will firmly entangle the rescuer. If one is not careful, the rescuer will be dragged into the water together. Now Zhou Shunhua is facing such a situation. She can swim herself, but she can't bring another person. Instead, she is entangled by Lu Yuji and cannot move forward. Zhou Shunhua's physical strength is quickly exhausted, and she can't save people. Instead, she puts herself in danger of drowning. middle.
Tang Shishi was surprised that she was selfish and had no way of understanding this feeling of self-denial. Since Zhou Shunhua is not good at water, why did he jump into the water? If you can't save people, you still have to take your own life
Tang Shishi couldn't do it. It's okay to say she's selfish or cool, anyway, she's the most precious with her.
Ren Yujun panicked and kept calling Zhou Shunhua's name by the lake: "Shunhua, Shunhua, hold on! Whoever of you knows water, go down and save people! Tang Shishi, isn't your family in the canal business? Go and save Shunhua quickly. !"
"My three-legged cat kung fu is nothing but another life to go into the water." Tang Shishi was unmoved. Tang Shishi turned back and shouted to the maid, "Go and find a woman with good water skills, and the woman who is in charge of taking care of the lake water, hurry up and find it!"
The female family was in a mess. After Tang Shishi finished shouting, the maid hurried to find someone and bumped into each other like a group of headless flies. In the chaos, the sound of thumping diving came from the other side of the lake.
Tang Shishi turned back and saw the attendants shouting "Shizi" in panic, and then jumped into the water one by one. Tang Shishi's eyes widened in amazement, watching Zhao Zixun quickly swim to the heart of the lake and catch Zhou Shunhua in front of everyone.
Two women fell into the water, and Zhao Zixun could only save one at a time, so he chose Zhou Shunhua without hesitation. After falling into the water, her clothes were completely wet, so Zhao Zixun hugged Zhou Shunhua from behind and took her back for a swim. During this period, Lu Yuji's cry for help became weaker and weaker. Zhao Zixun only glanced at it and still pulled Zhou Shunhua resolutely.
After Zhao Zixun left with Zhou Shunhua, other rescuers also arrived. The old woman knocked Lu Yuji unconscious with one palm, and several people joined forces to drag Lu Yuji back to the shore.
Everything happened in public, and Lu Yufei stood on the shore and was stunned. At this time, Zhao Zixun had rescued the people back to the shore, and there were many people on the other side with a hula. Lu Yufei woke up like a dream, and hurried to the other side to check Lu Yuji's situation.
A woman's name is precious and fragile. It is summer now, and the clothes are light and light, and they are completely attached to the body after being soaked in water, and the curves are exposed. Zhao Zixun said that one man was fine, but the other two women had no dignity at all.
Ren Yujun hurriedly found the cape and wanted to surround Zhou Shunhua. As soon as she approached, before she met Zhou Shunhua, Zhao Zixun gave her a vigilant look: "What are you doing?"
Zhao Zixun hugged Zhou Shunhua tightly, ignoring the situation of the two. Ren Yujun was stunned, took out his cloak, and said: "Sir, there are many people here, so it is not suitable to stay for a long time. Give me Shunhua..."
"No." Zhao Zixun avoided Ren Yujun's hand. He snatched the cloak and wrapped Zhou Shunhua tightly, then picked up the person and said in a loud voice, "Tell the imperial doctor, she fainted."
Zhao Zixun hugged Zhou Shunhua and walked away quickly, everyone surrounded Zhao Zixun, and the lake shore was half empty in an instant. Ren Yujun still maintained the action of handing things, and stayed in place.
Not far away, the female relatives of the Lu family were taking care of Lu Yuji. Lu Yufei was standing outside, looking at Zhao Zixun who was far away, also a little dazed. Tang Shishi walked slowly from the other side of the lake. She stopped beside Ren Yujun and said softly, "The prince really cares about her."
Ren Yujun looked at the direction Zhao Zixun and Zhou Shunhua were leaving, and did not speak. Tang Shishi watched for a while, and said with certainty, "He likes her."
He likes her, so the people present, Tang Shishi, Ren Yujun, including Lu Yufei, are all losers.
Tang Shishi was really embarrassed. The first time an assassin was found in the house, Tang Shishi chose to report, and Zhou Shunhua chose to cover, so Zhou Shunhua and Shizi became attached; the second time someone fell into the water, Tang Shishi chose to call a professional to rescue him, and Zhou Shunhua knew that he was average in water. But he still jumped, so Zhou Shunhua and the prince had a skin-to-skin relationship. It turned out that this was the reason why Tang Shishi couldn't be the heroine
She is not kind enough, nor self-sacrificing enough.
outrageous.
In the warm pavilion, the imperial doctor hurried over with a medicine box. The imperial physician entered and saluted Zhao Chengjun: "See King Jing."
Zhao Chengjun waved his hand and said, "Don't be too polite, let's take the pulse of the two patients first."
"Wei Chen obeys."
The imperial physician enters the inner room to diagnose the pulse. There was a room full of people standing outside the screen. Zhao Zixun had changed his clothes and kept glancing into the screen. His anxiety was evident in his words. The Lu family's wife and Lu Yufei stood aside, Lu Yufei lowered his head and looked sullen. Mrs. Lu's face was tense, and she glanced behind the screen from time to time. Tang Shishi, Ren Yujun and others were also there. They stood in front of the Duobao Pavilion in twos and threes with their eyes down, their eyes pondering.
Zhao Zixun's gaze was very obvious, Ren Yujun couldn't hide his sourness after seeing it, and Mrs. Lu's expression became even more ugly when she saw it.
Zhao Chengjun sat in the main seat and had a panoramic view of the expressions of the following people. Zhao Chengjun held back his anger and asked, "What the hell is going on here?"
No one dared to speak. Zhao Chengjun's eyes slowly swept over the people, and all those who were seen bowed their heads and remained silent. Finally, he stopped on Tang Shishi.
Tang Shishi noticed it and said quickly, "My lord, this time it's really none of my business."
"No one doubts you." Zhao Chengjun asked in a cold voice, "What happened just now, tell me one by one."
Seeing that Tang Shishi didn't mean to be held accountable, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My lord, Sister Zhou and Sister Ren met by chance in the garden. We were talking when we suddenly heard someone calling for help. When we arrived, we found out that it was Lu Jiasan. Miss fell into the water, and Sister Zhou jumped down immediately to save the person. I didn't expect her to be exhausted, but instead she was trapped in the water together. I found Fu Shui's wife. The mother hadn't even entered the water, but the eldest son happened to pass by. Everyone stopped them from going into the water to save people. The prince saved Sister Zhou, the old lady saved Miss Lu San, and then, this is what the lord saw."
Lu Yufei and Ren Yujun were also present, and Zhao Chengjun knew that what Tang Shishi said was right when he saw that the two did not say anything. Zhao Chengjun became more and more angry. He just asked Mrs. Zheng and the Lu family to mention their engagement today, but Zhao Zixun did it later. Zhao Chengjun didn't care why the prostitute of the Lu family fell into the water. Zhao Chengjun didn't care, but Zhao Zixun rescued a maid in front of the eldest lady of the Lu family, and also had a skin-to-skin relationship with the other party. Where is the palace located? Where is the royal system placed
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that King Jing was angry, and it was very serious. Everyone didn't dare to let out the air, and even Mrs. Lu looked embarrassed.
If it is normal, the prospective son-in-law saves other women in front of his daughter, and he is not clear with the maid, even if the other party is the palace, the Lu family is eligible to attack. However, this incident was caused by the Lu family's own people.
Mrs. Lu has been in charge of the inner house for so many years, how can she not see such inferior means. After Lu Yuji learned that King Jing intended to marry the Lu family, he deliberately fell into the water when the prince passed by the lake. No one in the Lu family knew how to water, but the prince would. If the prince saves her, the two have a skin-to-skin relationship, and due to fame, the prince must marry her.
Mrs. Lu just wanted to spit hard, and Lu Yuji thought it was beautiful, but she didn't look in the mirror, who was the prince and who was Lu Yuji. With so many guards and servants in Prince Jing's mansion, how could the prince risk his life for a woman? The best result of this incident is that Lu Yuji was rescued by his mother-in-law. Although he was embarrassed, he kept his innocence. However, it is more likely that Lu Yuji was rescued by guards or even servants. Other women in the family will also be dragged down by her reputation.
Mrs. Lu could see that Lu Yuji was using his name to calculate his son, and King Jing knew it well. Mrs. Lu was angry and embarrassed, her chest hurt for a while, and she couldn't even speak. In the stagnant atmosphere, the inner curtain moved. The imperial doctor came out from behind the screen, bowed his hands to Zhao Chengjun, and said, "Go back to the lord, Wei Chen has already diagnosed the two girls. Miss Zhou is suffering from cold. Fortunately, she is in good health. As long as she takes a few patches, she will have a good life in the future. It's not a big problem to raise. On the contrary, it's another girl. She has been in the water for a long time, choked a lot of water, and her foundation has been greatly damaged. I'm afraid it will take a long time to raise her."
Zhao Chengjun nodded lightly and motioned to Liu Ji: "Okay. Go and prescribe the medicine."
Liu Ji and the imperial physician saluted together: "As ordered." Liu Ji led the imperial physician to the side room to prescribe medicine. After the imperial physician left, only the relevant people were left in the house. Zhao Chengjun didn't see any change in his face, and calmly said to Mrs. Lu, "Mrs. Lu, this king has no way to teach his son, so you are laughing. If Mrs. Lu is willing, the marriage will continue."
Mrs. Lu and Zhao Zixun were surprised. Mrs. Lu's face showed obvious joy, but Zhao Zixun's face changed greatly. He stepped forward and said, "Father!"
Zhao Chengjun looked at Zhao Zixun indifferently, he didn't say a word, but there was a thousand sense in his eyes. Zhao Zixun was overwhelmed by such gaze, his imposing manner became lower and lower, and finally, he lowered his head stiffly.
Zhao Chengjun retracted his gaze, still with a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, and said to Mrs. Lu, "This king appreciates the eldest lady of your palace very much. In any case, she is the only prince concubine."
Tang Shishi tutted in his heart, his arms couldn't twist his thighs, and the marriage was decided. Mammy Feng was right, Prince Jing was really a very difficult person to approach, in various senses.
Even if the previous two fiancées hadn't died, he wouldn't have anyone by his side.
Tang Shishi's eyes widened: "Why? I obviously finished copying it."
"There's the next book." Liu Ji said with a smile, "It's the slave servant who neglected the girl. Don't be impatient, the servant girl will get you another few copies."
Tang Shishi understood, copying the book was just a pretense, in fact, what they wanted to do was to trap her. No matter if Tang Shishi finished copying, or how much he copied, they would not let Tang Shishi go out.
Tang Shishi restrained his smile and asked: "The little girl is stupid, father-in-law might as well give a clear word. What does father-in-law want to do with the little girl?"
Liu Ji shook his head and smiled, seeming to point out: "Girl, you just came here, and you still don't know how to serve people. How can we, slaves, leave earlier than the master?"
Tang Shishi was stunned, Liu Ji silently handed it in, looked at Tang Shishi and smiled: "Girl, the most important thing in serving people is to be flexible in eyebrows, diligent in movements, and know how to share the master's worries."
Tang Shishi understood, she twitched the corner of her mouth stiffly, and said to Liu Jifushen, "My little girl understands. Father-in-law Xie."
"The slave girl knows that the girl is a smart person." Liu Ji smiled, his brows fixed, and he said sharply, "Miss Tang, please."
Tang Shishi returned to Baoxia, and soon, the servant sent another few books. This time there is a thick pile, so you don't have to worry about being idle no matter what.
But this time, Tang Shishi was not in a hurry to copy the book. Anyway, no matter how much she writes, she has to stay in the study for a whole day, so why is she so busy? It's better to dawdling around for a day, and when the time comes, just copy a few pages and you can handle it.
Tang Shishi's movements were unhurried. She knew now that Jing Wangming actually wanted to trap her here in order to let her come to the study to serve the pen and ink. The study room has heavy eyeliner, and Tang Shishi can't do anything at all. In this way, there is no need to worry about the prince being confused by her.
The conscience of heaven and earth, Tang Shishi was really wronged. You can't be prejudiced against her just because she's good-looking. She is not a fox spirit, the real fox spirit is clearly Zhou Shunhua.
Zhou Shunhua and Zhao Zixun stayed together all day, why did King Jing only guard her but not Zhou Shunhua
It really makes no sense.
Tang Shishi grinded it angrily and tickled each stroke very heavily. If King Jing didn't leave, the people serving in the study could not leave. Tang Shishi also had to stay in the Baoxia, and he couldn't even go back to rest. Tang Shishi was pretending at first, and finally found that no one paid attention to her at all. Tang Shishi was lazy and upright, and finally, he fell asleep directly on the table.
Zhao Chengjun's study is an independent courtyard. The five upper rooms on the front are connected, occupying a huge area. Three rooms were stepped out behind the main house, and it was built into a small building. The place where Tang Shishi is located is the three Baosha buildings in the back.
Baoxia is shady, dark, and low and narrow. No one notices it when the door is closed. It is generally used as a utility room or a Buddhist hall. After Tang Shishi fell asleep, there was no sound, and people came and went outside, even forgetting that there was someone inside.
At night, the study was quiet. Zhao Chengjun was tired from reading the map, so he closed the book and rested his eyes. He closed his eyes and didn't seem to move, but he was still sketching the terrain in his mind.
Zhao Chengjun was thinking about how to arrange troops in Suzhou. As autumn was about to begin, he had to guard against a surprise attack by the Tartars. In addition, Anji Timur recently had a private relationship with Dongchagatai, and he also had to guard against Beiting.
While thinking about it, Zhao Chengjun suddenly heard breathing in the study. Zhao Chengjun opened his eyes instantly, the light in his eyes was deep, and there was no sign of distress.
Zhao Chengjun got up with a sullen face, and walked quietly to where the voice came from. He had already put his hand on the saber, and even began to investigate in his heart who it was. An assassin sent by Anji Timur? No, Anji Timur did not have such audacity. Is that a Tatar? Eastern Chagatai Khanate? Zhao Chengjun even thought of Empress Yao.
Zhao Chengjun stopped at Baoxiakou and opened the door without warning. Tang Shishi was sleeping in a daze, when he heard a startled sound, and someone pushed the door open. Tang Shishi was frightened, and when she opened her eyes, she saw a person standing at the door. She couldn't see who it was. She stared blankly at the other person for a long time. Finally, her mushy brain finally returned to work.
Tang Shishi hurriedly knelt down and bowed in the air: "See your lord."
As she spoke, her body shook. She just woke up, and she couldn't even tell the direction, and almost fell to the ground. Tang Shishi quickly knelt down and bowed his head respectfully.
