Silly King's Favorite

Chapter 44 Beauty Saves Beauty
Just when she was about to change hands, she tripped over something under her feet, which made her unstable, and she fell directly to the surface of the water.The hands that had just overlapped with Princess Ning also came out.At that moment, she clawed a few times with all her teeth and claws, but unfortunately she didn't catch anything and just fell down.

There was a huge muffled sound in her ears, and the cold pool water immediately surrounded her, found a gap and poured it from her mouth, and she was forced to drink several sips.In late spring and early summer, although the weather has warmed up, the river water is still bitingly cold.The dress quickly absorbed water and hung heavily on her body, making it very inconvenient for her to move around.The long hair has also become a burden at this time, the gold hairpin and silver tinsel on her head fell off, and the long hair hangs down, entwining her like seaweed, making her unable to let go of her hands and feet.The beautiful lotus leaf is no longer beautiful, but has become a stumbling block hindering her actions.The body sank more and more, and the river water poured into her body from all directions, and she gradually became a little breathless.After thumping desperately in the water a few times, she finally surfaced, and she yelled for help.But every now and then, icy river water rushed towards her and poured into her mouth.I wanted to vomit and couldn't get it out, so I just choked into the lung duct like that, which was burning and painful.Ji Youran was so uncomfortable that she closed her eyes.

She didn't know how to swim, so she stopped for a while, and felt as if there were countless hands pulling her legs, clamoring to drag her to the bottom of the river.It seemed that Princess Ning's flustered cry for help could be heard on the shore, and several figures ran from a distance.

Everything in front of him gradually became blurred, and large swaths of dizziness appeared in his mind.In a daze, Ji Youran seemed to hear a thump, thump, thud, several times in succession.The water surged, and a light green figure approached her.

It seemed to her that a lifetime had passed, and just when she was about to give up hope, a powerful arm suddenly hugged her from behind, dragged her waist and sent her to the surface of the water.

The dawn of hope appeared in front of his eyes again, and Ji Youran hurriedly gathered his last ounce of energy and grasped the opponent's arm tightly.

The hand holding her waist sent her to the shore, and several hands responded immediately, pulling her up in a hurry.

Holding her shoulders with both hands, Luyi's crying voice buzzed in her ears: "Wangfei, Wangfei, do you want to be okay?"

"Cough, cough..." Feeling that her whole body was surrounded by water, her mouth, nose and eyes were all filled with water, Ji Youran wanted to speak, but when she opened her mouth, water flowed out, her chest was swollen, and there was not even a single syllable. Can't send it out.

"No, Princess Yi drank too much water!"

I don't know who shouted, and the people around panicked again.Some people called to call the doctor quickly, some people asked loudly what to do, and some people already brought blankets to cover her body.

Suddenly someone took her hand again, and an anxious man's voice said: "I'll take her back to the room first."

"Wait!" But immediately, one hand patted him down, and Ji Youran noticed that the buckle on her neck was undone, her body was also turned over, her abdomen rested on a pair of knees, her head drooped naturally, and her hands Press flat on her back.Press hard a few times, once, twice, three times...

The water in the chest and abdomen gurgled a few times, and then flowed back down the throat.With a sound of wow, Ji Youran spit out a pool of muddy river water.

"Okay, okay! Spit out the water! It's okay!" He heard the yelling of the three aunts and six wives again, and his confused mind gradually became clearer. When Ji Youran opened his eyes, he saw countless maids and women around him. Surround her tightly.Concubine Ning stood aside holding her veil tightly, with a concerned and anxious smile on her face, beside her, stood a...man?Yuebai Jinpao, jade belt around the waist, Ruyu's face is somewhat similar to her brother.But, what happened to him?His body was covered in water, his hair was wet and stuck to his temples, and the tips of his hair were still dripping with water drop by drop.

Looking from far to near, she saw Lu Yi was kneeling beside her with tears in her eyes, poor child, her eyes were red from crying.But—wasn't she holding her up?Looking up again, I finally saw a peaceful face on top of my head.With handsome eyes and sculpted eyebrows, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, water dripped from his body, but he still had no expression on his face, just looking straight at her.

"Cai, Caiping?" Frowning, Ji Youran called out in a low voice.

Caiping nodded, calling for Luyi to come over and help her up.Concubine Ning also quickly shouted: "Come on, Princess Fuyi, go change clothes and rest!"

In a daze, she was sent to sit in the warm room in the East Wing, and soon someone came over with hot water and brought Princess Ning's clothes, and waited for her to change into the wet clothes.After she finished changing, Princess Ning advised her to lie down and rest for a while.But Ji Youran had something on her mind, how could she lie down, so she looked at Caiping on the bed, and then at Princess Ning: "Who saved me from the river?"

"This girl is with my cousin!" Concubine Ning hurriedly said, "The seasons have changed in the past two days, and the prince has a low fever. I really can't do it alone, so my natal cousin came to help. When the accident just happened, he happened to Not far away, when she heard the cry, she ran over and plunged into the water. But—” Caiping turned to the side, her smile was a little stiff, “I didn’t expect you to have a good swimmer beside you. When you fell, you quickly jumped down. Moreover, it can urge you to spit water at the first time."

It turned out to be her.Ji Youran pursed her lips, and couldn't help but look at Caiping again.But Caiping stood aside with her head bowed, as calm and indifferent as before.Then he said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, my girl is also wet, please ask someone to find a place to change her clothes too!"

"Oh! I just took care of you, and I forgot that she was soaked too! Come on, find a set of clothes and change for her!" Princess Ning hurriedly gave instructions as if she had just woken up from a dream.

Caiping gave them a blessing, then turned and went out.

Concubine Ning also ordered other idlers to wait to go out, while she sat on the edge of the bed, gently tucked Ji Youran into the quilt, and then said solemnly: "Second brother, don't worry, I won't tell the second brother what happened today. of."

"What's the matter?" Ji Youran was puzzled.

"It's just...it's about my cousin going into the water to save you! You can't kiss a man and a woman, even if you fall into the water. Although it's an emergency, if someone outside finds out, it will be..."

"You also said that it's an emergency, and there's nothing you can do about it. What's the big deal?" Ji Youran smiled nonchalantly.

Concubine Ning was even more anxious. "Second brother and sister—"

"My concubine! My concubine!" While talking, suddenly the door was knocked open, and Feng Yuming who got the news broke in, "I heard that you fell into the water? How is it? Doesn't matter?"

"It's okay, thanks to the heroic and courageous cousin of the eldest sister-in-law, who jumped down to rescue me when he heard the news that I fell into the water. And Caiping, she also did a lot of hard work." Holding his hand, Ji Leisurely said comfortingly.
