The Empress Dowager

Chapter 14
"Dongmei, did you hear anything?" Nangong Yue suddenly asked after another commotion.

"No, maybe miss heard wrong!" Dongmei replied.

"Oh..." Nangong Yue responded, and listened again. Her hearing has always been very good, and there is nothing wrong with it. Behind the bay blocked by the rockery by the lake, there must be the sound of someone falling into the water. Listen Frequency, seems not to water.Without another word, Nangong Yue pulled Dongmei and walked towards the shore:

"No, someone must have fallen into the water, Dongmei, follow me."

Nangong Yue walked quickly, but she didn't notice that at some point, most of the fish swimming under the pavilion began to turn their belly white.

Behind the rockery is a sluice, which connects the garden and the canal outside the second gate. Right now, the water in the pool is muddy, and only a small embroidered shoe floats and sinks in the waves. Her eyes sink slightly. Nangong Yue has not had time to say anything. Mei said first, "This is Miss Fourth's shoe! Second Miss, this is Miss Fourth's shoe."

"Calm down, I know."

The satin surface of the embroidered shoes is made of Bazhong red brocade, and the embroidery on it is also intersected with gold thread and silk thread, and it is so small, who is it if it is not Miss Fourth?Scanning the surroundings, Nangong Yue took the grass rope thrown by the gardener in the grass and tied it around her waist before making a decisive decision. She turned her head and said to Dongmei:
"Quickly, tell the people above the second door that the fourth lady may have fallen into the water. Arrange two teams. One team will go into the garden to search for people, and the other team will look for people from the ditch outside."

"Second Miss, what about you?"

"Hurry up, Miss Fourth hasn't surfaced for a long time, I'm afraid the situation is not good, am I tied to a rope?"

Dongmei hesitated for a moment, then turned around and ran away. Nangong Yue did a little warm-up exercise, and jumped into the water without saying a word.

Who would have thought that the bottom of the lake would be covered with a deep layer of silt, Nangong Yue didn't take precautions, and buried her foot in it. Just as she was about to struggle, Nangong Yue suddenly She felt like her heart was being pricked by a needle, and the pain caused her to gulp down a big mouthful of water.

It's over, she has calculated thousands of times, but she didn't realize that the original owner is completely ignorant of water!

Nangong Yue tried her best to calm herself down, but the pain in her heart became more and more obvious, and it spread continuously, not only the heart, lungs, stomach, stomach, and even limbs, brain, Nangong Yue lost almost instantly When she regained consciousness, the water immediately rushed into her facial features overwhelmingly.

Just when Nangong Yue was in despair, she heard someone calling her name eagerly, and the sound of "Plop, plop" diving...

Nangong Yue had a dream. She dreamed that she was climbing a mountain with her father and mother. The mountain was beautiful and the sky was blue. Her mother stroked Nangong Yue's head and said with a smile, "Our Yue'er has grown up..."

"Second Miss...Second Miss..."

"Miss, miss..."

Just when Nangong Yue was acting coquettishly with her mother, a loud voice suddenly came from her ears, and the world was spinning. Nangong Yue opened her eyes, and what she saw was a brand new carved wooden bed. Dongmei beside her was crying, Shaking her hand, desperately calling her name.

"Dongmei, your second miss, I... haven't died yet!" Nangong Yue's jade-like eyes flashed a little disappointment, and then she disappeared, raising her hand to gently touch Dongmei's head .

Dongmei was startled, and her voice was full of joy: "Second Miss, you're awake, that's great! I'll go tell Eldest Young Master!"

"Dongmei, wait a minute."

"Second Miss, what are your orders?"

"Where is Miss Fourth? Have you been rescued?"
