197 Land Steadily in Rong Zhan’s Arms
She had thought that she would be able to land steadily in Rong Zhan’s arms, but she had never thought that something like this would happen. Her body crashed into the railing beside the lake.
“Ahhh!” Her body was unstable, and she flipped over the railing and crashed heavily into the lake.
“Someone! Someone come quickly! The princess has fallen into the water!” The attendants who witnessed the whole process screamed in fear and quickly called for someone to fish her up.
The man-made lake was very deep. Princess Qing Liu struggled in the lake with all her strength. Her exquisite makeup was all messed up. “Help, gurgle…”
Rong Zhan walked to the lakeside expressionlessly.
!!
Princess Qing Liu wailed loudly as if she had grabbed onto a life-saving straw. “Your Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness, save me!”
Rong Zhan waved his hand, and a snow-white snake quickly darted out of his sleeve. The snake was extremely fast. It opened its mouth and bit the hairpin on Princess Qing Liu’s head before quickly returning to Rong Zhan’s sleeve.
Rong Zhan stroked the snake’s head, took the hairpin, and left without looking back.
From the beginning to the end, Rong Zhan did not give Princess Qing Liu a single glance.
Princess Qing Liu looked at Rong Zhan’s departing back in disbelief.
She could not understand why this man would be so cold to this extent!
Not only could she not move Rong Zhan’s heart, but her existence was not something that could enter his eyes.
Even if she drowned in the lake, he would not stop. When Princess Qing Li realized this, she was so angry that she rolled her eyes and fainted. Then, she quickly sank into the lake.
“Save her!” The servants in the warm pavilion were all alarmed. They rushed over in a hurry and jumped into the lake to save her.
Rong Zhan put the hairpin into his sleeve and got into the carriage after leaving the warm pavilion.
The coachman opened the curtain and asked, “Royal Highness, do you want to return to the manor?”
“I want to go to the palace and report to the empress dowager.” Rong Zhan lowered his eyes as he spoke.
The coachman accepted the order and drove straight to the palace.
An hour later, inside the Fengkang Palace…
The empress dowager, who had just been struck by a gust of wind, was sitting on the soft couch as if nothing had happened, while eating melon seeds, she asked with a smile, “Bi Zhu, how do you think Zhan’er and Princess Qing Liu are getting along? I think they are both gentle people and will definitely get along well.
Nanny Bi Zhu was massaging the empress dowager’s legs, with a smile, she replied, “The person that the empress dowager has her eyes on will naturally not be wrong.”
“It’s not that I have my eyes on her. It’s just that I think Qing Liu is beautiful. Perhaps Zhan’er will like her.” The empress dowager raised her eyebrows at Nanny Bi Zhu. “All men in the world are the same. Which man can reject a delicate beauty? Look at Zhan’er, he has been gone for so long and there has been no movement at all. Most likely, he has already indulged in the gentle countryside.”
Granny Bi Zhu nodded her head, immediately after, they heard the eunuch outside the door announce loudly.
“The prince regent has arrived!”
The empress dowager was almost choked by the sunflower seed in her mouth. She forcefully coughed twice, she looked at Nanny Bi Zhu in disbelief. “How long has it been? How did he come back so quickly?”
Nanny Bi Zhu also had a look of confusion. “This old servant also doesn’t know what the situation is. Empress dowager, please return to the inner hall.”
The empress dowager nodded, she also had a serious look on her face as she said, “Right, we can’t let Zhan’er find out that I’m faking my illness. Otherwise, we’ll be exposed.”
“Empress dowager, don’t worry. You’ve already been exposed.” Rong Zhan walked in expressionlessly.
The empress dowager sat on the chair. She did not have the chance to leave at all. She could only raise her head to look at Rong Zhan. She asked with a fake smile, “Why are you back so early? You didn’t even tell me in advance.”
