Hearing Ji Lingxue's cry for help, the guards swam towards her.
As Ji Lingxue waved her hand, she suddenly felt her shoulders sink, and the next moment she was lifted ashore like a chicken by a strong arm.
Ji Lingxue complained in her heart: Wow, do you have to be so simple and violent? I'm not a chick. Sir, a hero saving a damsel in distress is not like you.
If Xiao Yichen heard Ji Lingxue's inner thoughts, he would definitely reply like this: "Ji Lingxue, stop flattering yourself. You can call your appearance beautiful?"
Ji Lingxue sat on the grass, coughing, coughing out all the water in her mouth. Xiao Yichen's voice, as cold as the wind, came from above her head: "Where is Ji Yuqing?"
Ji Lingxue replied weakly: "If my sister is lucky, she should not be dead. I wanted to bring her to shore, but she was too heavy and I couldn't pull her up, so I had to come up and ask for help myself."
Xiao Yichen rolled his eyes at the sky. It was really useless to ask Ji Lingxue questions. He suddenly felt powerless. Fortunately, his two subordinates were efficient and found Ji Yuqing quickly. Zi Su carried Ji Yuqing, who had drunk a lot of water, to the shore. After all, Ji Yuqing was the concubine of Prince Chen, so they had to avoid suspicion.
Mo Xiang found a cloak and put it on Ji Lingxue like a magician. In comparison, Ji Yuqing was much more pitiful as no one gave her a cloak. She lay on the grass and Zi Su performed abdominal compression first aid.
When Xiao Yichen saw Ji Yuqing's dyed face, he turned his head and caught Ji Lingxue's smirk. His black eyes flashed, and he pretended not to see anything and turned around and ordered, "Zi Su, how are you serving the princess? Why don't you take her downstairs to rest and find a doctor to treat her?"
Zi Su's face turned pale and she looked fiercely in the direction of Ji Lingxue, then she kowtowed to Xiao Yichen and said, "Your Majesty, there must be something fishy about this matter. I hope Your Majesty can make a decision for my princess."
Zi Su's words showed that she suspected Ji Lingxue had ulterior motives. Her master was unconscious, so she naturally wanted an explanation for her.
Xiao Yichen nodded and waved, "You guys go down first."
The courtyard was soon cleared, leaving only Xiao Yichen and Ji Lingxue, the master and servant. Ji Lingxue wrapped her cloak tightly around her body and looked at Xiao Yichen innocently, "Your Highness, I'm so cold. I need a stove and hot water to take a bath."
Xiao Yichen said: "If you give me an explanation first, I will give you a stove and hot water." The implication is that you cannot leave without explaining the whole story clearly.
Ji Lingxue pursed her lips in grievance and gradually lowered her head.
Mo Xiang said, "Your Highness, my princess is not smart, why bother with her? She also fell into the water, and now she is shivering with cold and wet. Can you let the princess go back and change clothes before questioning her?"
Xiao Yichen's face turned cold, "I am talking to your master, why do you, a servant, have the right to interrupt? You have no right to speak here."
Mo Xiang's face turned pale, her knees softened and she knelt on the ground to kowtow to Xiao Yichen, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I know I was wrong."
Ji Lingxue pulled Mo Xiang behind her, raised her head and looked at Xiao Yichen, with a hint of stubbornness on her face, "What kind of man is it to bully a slave girl?"
The corners of Xiao Yichen's mouth twitched. It seemed that he didn't do anything
Xiao Yichen said, "Ji Lingxue, you'd better explain what happened just now. Why did you fall into the water with Qing'er?"
Ji Lingxue blinked and asked, "My Lord, are you concerned about me?"
