Qingzhu was thinking about something in his mind, but he didn't stop walking. He walked all the way to the lake, pretending to be attracted by the fish swimming in the lake, and suddenly stopped and looked at the lake intently.
The guards who were quietly following Qingzhu felt happy when they saw the Princess Regent standing by the lake by such a coincidence.
He was worried just now about how he would be able to complete the task assigned by his master if the princess did not walk to the lake, but now he no longer had to worry.
Thinking of this, the guard speeded up and walked behind Qingzhu with gentle steps. When Qingzhu noticed someone behind him and was about to turn around, he pushed hard.
"ah!!"
Qingzhu An resisted the instinct to fight back, followed the opponent's strength, and climbed directly over the guardrail of the lake and fell into the water.
"Save...help"
A voice filled with tears and uncontrollable panic floated in the water, "I don't know how to swim, help me!!!"
With a look of horror on his face, Qingzhu fluttered desperately in the water, causing countless splashes and ripples on the lake. Under the water where others could not see, Qingzhu's lower body was floating steadily.
The person who pushed Qingzhu into the water did not dare to stay too long, for fear that if someone saw him, there would be a lot of trouble.
I could only take a quick look at it, make sure that Qingzhu was not going to get wet, and then hurriedly evacuated.
Qingzhu clearly saw that as soon as the other party walked away with his front legs, someone came over from his back legs.
To say this is a coincidence, only a fool would believe it.
The other party seemed to be attracted by the movement by the lake, and ran towards the lake quickly, "Don't be afraid, girl, I'm here to save you."
If Qingzhu was really drowning at this moment, and heard that someone came to save her, she would naturally not notice anything except excitement.
But she knew how to float, and even her fear at the moment was just fake. In addition, Su Qianxi had spoken beforehand, so Qingzhu naturally noticed many problems at this moment.
Although she was far away from the shore and couldn't see the other person's appearance for the time being, she could tell by looking at the other person's clothes that his identity was not simple. Such a person would go out without one or two slaves.
Secondly, people with a certain status in the capital all believe that a gentleman should not stand behind dangerous walls.
Even if he wants to save someone, he will not take action himself. Instead, he will call the patrolling guards around to come and rescue people to avoid being entangled later.
After all, if a woman has physical contact with a man, she has lost her innocence in the eyes of outsiders and can only marry him.
For a married woman, if her husband's family is more strict, it is also common to directly find opportunities to make people die of illness.
Therefore, whether it is for their own benefit or for the benefit of the other party, those shrewd children of aristocratic families will only take action to save others if they are afraid of losing their lives.
The other party's behavior at this moment is full of problems.
When Qingzhu was thinking about something, Shen Jinchuan had almost swam to Qingzhu's side and kept comforting Qingzhu's mood, "Girl, I'm here to save you. Don't be afraid. Give me your hand."
Qingzhu came back to his senses, and after seeing the other party's appearance clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank, and the last trace of doubt in his heart completely disappeared.
The princess guessed correctly, the person who set up the trap today was indeed the third prince! !
Thinking of this, Qingzhu seemed to slap the water inadvertently and struggled, but in fact he controlled his strength and shot the splashing water into Shen Jinchuan's eyes.
The water in the lake was mixed with the silt at the bottom of the river and became turbid due to the constant struggle of the green bamboo after falling into the water.
Shen Jinchuan only felt a pain in his eyes. He squinted subconsciously and felt that his vision suddenly blurred for a moment.
Qingzhu quickly grabbed Shen Jinchuan's hand, and climbed up Shen Jinchuan's neck with his other hand. It was like a drowning man suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw, and used all his strength to pull the person down.
Without noticing, Shen Jinchuan was directly pushed into the water by Qingzhu. The feeling of suffocation made him struggle desperately.
The princess said that if it was the third prince who came to save people, she must find a way to make him suffer.
Otherwise, as the Third Prince, it would be difficult for them to do anything to the Third Prince in the future, and that would be the disadvantage of being dumb.
Qingzhu felt angry when she thought that the third prince had pretended to be so gentle and harmless in front of their prince, but secretly plotted against their princess.
Sure enough, the people in the palace did not have fuel-efficient lamps.
If the third prince was really as gentle as the outside world said, how could he dare to attack the princess in the princess's mansion today? He is a grown man who has no grudges and wants to ruin the princess's face.
If it weren't for the Third Prince's unusual status, she would have just drowned him.
While Qingzhu was cursing in his heart, while she was pretending to accidentally push Shen Jinchuan into the water and unable to see her movements, Qingzhu tore off the thin mask on his face and stuffed it into his arms.
Then she raised her hand to take off the beaded hairpin on her head, threw it hard, and threw it on the grass by the lake to avoid outsiders discovering that she had deliberately pretended to be a princess to attract the mastermind behind the scenes.
After doing this, Qingzhu slightly let go of his hand. Shen Jinchuan noticed that the hand holding him was weakening, so he immediately seized the opportunity and grabbed Qingzhu's hand with his backhand, thus avoiding the outcome of being drowned instead of failing to save others.
"I've caught you, don't move, I'll take you ashore."
At this time, Shen Jinchuan still hasn't forgotten his original purpose, breathing heavily and pretending to be gentle to comfort the frightened "Su Qianxi".
Qingzhu did not speak, but nodded repeatedly.
Shen Jinchuan didn't notice the problem and quickly led the people to swim to the shore.
"Hey, Third Prince, why are you here? I asked the servants of the Princess's Mansion, but the Second Princess is not here."
As soon as the two landed ashore, a slave dressed as a eunuch ran out from the diagonal corner and shouted loudly in a high-pitched voice, as if he was afraid that others would not know Shen Jinchuan's identity.
Qingzhu lowered his head and did not speak.
Shen Jinchuan saw that Su Qianxi seemed to be so frightened that she didn't even react, and frowned in displeasure.
He originally thought that after he rescued Su Qianxi, he would arrange for someone to reveal his identity and make sure that people thought his appearance was just a coincidence.
I didn't expect Su Qianxi to be so timid, and she still hasn't come back to her senses. If Xiao Yuzi is asked to tell him his identity again, will it seem too deliberate?
Just when Shen Jinchuan was hesitant to use his eyes to signal Xiao Yuzi to say it again, Su Ruowei, who was belatedly arriving, came over from not far away.
Su Ruowei saw something wrong with Shen Jinchuan's face from a distance, and immediately realized that there might be a problem with their plan, and immediately accelerated his pace.
"Your Highness, why are you here?"
As soon as Shen Jinchuan heard the voice, he knew who it was and turned to look at Su Ruowei with eyes full of tenderness.
As expected of Weier, she could always help him at critical moments.
