She had seen the impressiveness of First Princess Pingning before.

”We are not sure if this Shao Xi will marry into the First Princess Pingning Palace, although they do not dare to offend the First Princess Pingning Palace, but if the Duke Chengan Palace truly dotes on Shao Xi, there are many ways to push the marriage away. The National Duke Ning Palace is one of their choices, if we were to bring out Shao Xi, would the First Princess Pingning still dare to come and take him away?” Lin Shu thought very carefully. In her previous life, Shao Xi had married quite well, a concubine having married a young lady to the first son of the official of the fifth rank. This could be considered a high marriage, but this was also due to Shao Xi's concubine being favored by her aunt.

After thinking about it, she continued, ”If Shao Xi really knew that she would marry into First Princess Pingning's Palace, why would she be so happy today? Based on her personality, she would have long been hiding in her room and wouldn't come out even if she wanted to die! ”

In her previous life, Shao Xi had given her a lot of eyedrops, so she more or less knew about Shao Xi's personality.

Lin Hui laughed in ridicule, but just as she was about to speak, she saw the few girls riding on a small boat heading towards the center of the lake, she pulled on one of them and asked: ”What exactly happened?”

At this time, Xiao Shui's wife was so scared that her face turned white. ”Old servant, old servant …” I don't know what's going on, but they say something went wrong over there! ”

No matter which young master or girl fell into the water or what happened to them, they would all suffer the same fate.

Lin Shu immediately said: ”Now is not the time to ask about these, quickly go and save them.”

She even asked if there were any maidservants who knew how to use water and followed them. Even if they couldn't save someone at a critical moment, it would be good for them to stand to the side and lend a hand.

Lin Hui also walked in, ”Sister Shu, let's go take a look too?”

”Do you think it's not messy enough?” In front of her, Lin Shu was like a big sister, ”If we go over now, and something happens, wouldn't that be adding fuel to the fire? I've already sent someone to the courtyard to invite the elders over. It won't be long before we find out what exactly happened.

Lin Hui could only agree.

However, it was as if those few wives had never returned. Not only did they not return, even the girls and young masters that were on the boat did not return.

Lin Shu also vaguely sensed that something was amiss, she was afraid that something big was going to happen.

The first to disembark was the pale-faced Lin Lian. Even though she was supported by the maidservants beside her, she still staggered as she disembarked, and if the maidservants beside her hadn't reacted so quickly, she would have fallen flat on her face.

After that, a few girls disembarked, but their expressions were all ugly. There were even some who were timid, as if Lu Yanyu was already crying from fear.

Lin Shu hurried forward, grabbed Lin Lian's wrist and asked: ”Lian Jieer, what's going on?”

Lin Lian's mouth twitched, but she could not utter a single word for a long while.

Lin Hui could not wait any longer and shouted, ”What exactly is going on? Say something! ”

Lin Lian cried out.

Among them, a slightly braver girl said, ”Duke Chengan Palace, Duke Chengan Palace... ”He's gone. He was found dead in the water …”

”Gone? Why is it gone? ” 's previous life might have been filled with resentment towards Shao Xi, but she had lived a new life, and many things had already been seen light. When she thought about how a lively and beautiful girl like her had disappeared in just an hour, she was still a little stunned, ”Just now, when Shao Xi was riding the boat, was there no maid who knew how to water? Those servant girls saw their master fall into the water, why didn't they go and save him? ”

This was a little too inconceivable.

However, what the young lady said next made Lin Shu even more baffled. Not only was it the young miss from the Duke Chengan Palace, even the servant girl and the woman who knew water was dead! That old woman … And it was drowned! ”

Even Lin Shu was stunned, the woman who was brought in, Xiao Shui must be powerful, if not she would not have been chosen and drowned? Only a fool would believe that?

When she finally understood what was going on, quite a few girls also understood what was going on, and quite a few of them started to cry.

Although they didn't come up with the idea to pluck the lotus seed heads, now that someone had died, none of them could get away from it!
