Chapter 44: Falling into the water again, holding back tears of grievance
In Zhaoyang Hall, the candles are brightly lit and the golden walls are shining.
The emperor lived in this hall.
Emperor Wu Su was very happy today. He drank a few more glasses of wine, which was a little warm. He had already gone to the clean room to change into regular clothes.
The bamboo green round neck and narrow sleeve gown has dragon patterns embroidered with cyan silk thread on the placket and cuffs, making the figure look even more slender and straight.
In the inner hall, layers of crow-green hanging curtains separated the palace people from the outside.
Emperor Wu Su turned over an authentic ancient book in his hand, with a noble look on his brows and eyes.
Li Yuzong bowed and walked closer, and whispered outside the hanging tent: "Your Majesty, Princess Qingyun and Miss Ji fell into the water."
With a long finger, the precious authentic work was Throw it on the ground so casually.
The green crows floated down from the tent, and before they completely fell, the figure of Emperor Wu Su had already arrived outside the Zhaoyang Palace.
*
Beside Taiye Lake.
This is not the first time Ji Qingwu has entered the water.
Once alive, twice familiar. When she swam ashore, Princess Qingyun was still flopping desperately in the water.
A few guards who appeared out of nowhere swam over and tried to rescue them, but were scolded by the princess and backed away.
Ji Qingwu didn't understand why this princess was so arrogant at the moment, it was clear that her life was almost gone.
She didn't want to care about it, but she couldn't see this living life disappearing before her eyes.
Sighing, he entered the water again and quickly fished out Princess Qingyun.
When she sent the princess to the shore, she saw a person standing on the steps where there was no one.
Tall and tall, wearing a green bamboo-leaf robe, he lowered his eyes and looked at her.
Half of Ji Qingwu's body was still submerged in the water. The moment he met his eyes, Ji Qingwu trembled.
Why did the emperor suddenly appear on the shore? !
"Brother Emperor, you are here, Brother Emperor, I almost died, you have to make the decision for me"
Princess Qingyun sat on the ground wet, crying so pitifully .
Only found that Emperor Wu Su didn't look at her at all.
Ji Qingwu climbed ashore as gracefully as possible, despite the heavy gaze of the person above him.
But after all, he swam twice in the water, and the second time he brought an adult woman with him. Even if his strength was not exhausted, there was not much left.
My foot slipped and I was about to fall again.
The next moment, someone held up his arms and lifted him up, as easily as lifting a ball of cotton.
But even if she is cotton, it is still cotton soaked in water. This person's arm strength is really terrible.
Ji Qingwu even felt that his feet drew half a circle in mid-air before being put down.
Li Yuzong's legs and feet were not as fast as the emperor's, so Li Yuzong, who had just arrived, was panting and handed over the robe in his hand.
"Your Majesty, your robe."
Under the pitiful and aggrieved eyes of Princess Qingyun, Emperor Wu Su unfolded his moon-white robe, covered Ji Qingwu, and put it on Ji Qingwu. People are wrapped up tightly.
Ji Qingwu looked at his cold face and felt uneasy, but his body felt a lot warmer.
This robe is thick, but it is too tight around the neck and is a bit tight.
Ji Qingwu was about to say something when he was frightened back by Emperor Wu Su’s fierce eyes.
She shrank her head and frowned. The fact that Princess Qingyun fell into the water must be blamed on her.
With such a big commotion, people from Cining Palace also came.
Shi Xi hurriedly appeared and said respectfully: "Kowtow to Your Majesty, the Queen Mother learned that the princess fell into the water and was rushing over. She sent her slaves to come over first to find out the situation."
Princess Qingyun cried and said: "It was Ji Qingwu who harmed me that made me fall into the water. Catch her and go to the queen mother to hold her accountable."
The whole story of this matter is not as Princess Qingyun said. That way.
Ji Qingwu twitched his lips, not knowing whether he was mocking the princess for being so scheming, or mocking himself for being too kind-hearted.
Emperor Wu Su understood her emotions.
"Shi Xi, take the princess back to Cining Palace first, ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look, and tell the Queen Mother that we will discuss this matter tomorrow." Princess Qingyun said angrily: "Brother, it's Ji."
Emperor Wu Su glanced at her so lightly that she was speechless. Qingyun pursed his lips, not daring to have any more opinions.
It was getting late now, and trying this matter all night would only make the Six Palaces restless. Shi Xi understood this truth, and together with several maids, helped Princess Qingyun back.
Emperor Wu Su stood on the shore and looked at Ji Qingwu who was huddled up with only a small face exposed.
“Speak for yourself.”
"After the birthday banquet, the princess invited me to come to the lake to warn me."
The words were on his lips, but looking at the emperor's gloomy and dripping face, he couldn't continue.
Emperor Wu Su took a step closer to her. She was really afraid that he would throw her into the lake again.
So he immediately spoke quickly and said: "The princess warned me not to associate with Young Master Li, because Li Chengxun is her chosen consort."
Emperor Wu Su was not surprised at all, he looked at The woman's damp hair and dark eyes asked: "How did you answer?"
Ji Qingwu said righteously: "Of course I can't agree."
It is not a glorious thing to fight for the right in an open and honest manner, but to intimidate a love rival to withdraw.
She is just not ashamed of this method, but to someone's ears, she is firm in her heart towards Li Chengxun.
Emperor Wu Su's eyes were dark, his gaze fell on her lips that always said things he didn't like to hear, and he asked casually.
“Then what.”
"Then she pushed me into the water, and I pulled her under the water."
Seeing that she said it so easily, she didn't take drowning seriously at all.
Emperor Wu Su's breath suddenly turned cold.
Ji Qingwu hugged his robe tightly and felt the change in his mood.
She suddenly realized that she had spoken too frankly. What was Princess Qingyun's identity? She was the emperor's sister. The princess was delicate and delicate, how could she compare with her.
One is in the sky, the other is on the ground, the difference is cloud and mud.
So what if the princess pushed her into the water? She shouldn't drag the princess into the water too. Just because the princess can do it, doesn't mean she can too.
Ji Qingwu pursed his lips, suppressing the grievance in his heart, and said spinelessly: "My daughter is at fault."
Emperor Wu Su said: "Where is the mistake."
She frowned and replied: "The mistake is I shouldn't ignore the safety of the princess. It's just a dispute of words. Besides, I'm good at swimming in water, so I won't be prepared for anything even if I fall into the water. The princess is worth a million dollars. If something goes wrong, even my ten lives won't be enough to pay for it. ”
Emperor Wu Su turned his head to look at the calm lake, but there were waves in his eyes.
"You will definitely be fine if you fall into the water."
It is one thing to say it yourself, but it is another thing to hear the emperor say it himself.
Ji Qingwu didn’t know why, but the sourness rushed from the bottom of his heart to his eyes, and his eyes were covered with tears.
She said with difficulty: "Yes, my daughter is a good swimmer. Even if she is pushed into the water, she can swim ashore by herself."
Emperor Wu Su was unmoved and still said coldly: "Do you know that the guards on the shore are prepared for you, and of course they will not let anything happen to you."
What do you mean prepared for her?
Ji Qingwu's mind changed rapidly, and then he raised his head in shock.
Princess Qingyun was about to drown, and she did not allow the guards to save her.
The woman's clothes were so thin that they almost stuck to her body after falling into the water. If she was rescued by the guards, it would be the same as skin-to-skin contact, and this matter would be ignored by others.
I will marry a guard with my reputation ruined.
The guards were prepared for her. If this plan succeeds, she and Li Chengxun will have to part ways from now on.
Emperor Wu Su looked at the woman with clear eyes, his face turned pale with shock, her red lips slightly opened, and her hands tightly grasped the moon-white robe.
The moon is bright and clear in the sky, and there is darkness everywhere on the ground.
He had known for a long time that she was incompatible with the palace.
It can be easily plotted.
At the birthday banquet, you have to hand over your handle to others.
