”Good, Shui Qiannan, you actually dared to murder the second lady of the Zuo clan!” Hou Zhiwen acted like he was speaking righteously as he said bitterly, ”I didn't expect you to be such a person. How could Prime Minister Shui raise such a vicious daughter like you?”
”You're not allowed to talk about my mother!” He and his mother had not even touched Zuo Yi Yun yet.
”Is there a misunderstanding here? Miss Shui is not such a person, and why did she push Second Miss Zuo down?” Hou Qingyu stepped forward to help out Shui Qiannan.
”Why hasn't the Crown Prince come up yet?” Hou Zhiwen asked. It was only then that everyone looked towards the surface of the lake. The lake was very calm, and not a single trace of Hou Ziming and Zuo Yiyun could be seen. After an unknown period of time, the surface of the water started bleeding.
”Ah, why is there blood, Zi Ming, Zi Ming.” Just as Shui Qianyu was about to jump down, Hou Zhiwen stopped her. Shui Qianyu looked at Hou Zhiwen with misty eyes and said, ”Ziming is still under water, he's in danger.”
”Then you can't help out much even if you go down. Didn't you tell the crown prince to be anxious?” Hou Zhiwen said.
”Enough, it's so noisy!” Shui Qianyu coldly replied. Her cold gaze swept over Shui Qianyu, causing her to feel a chill down her spine. She did not dare to make a sound.
At that moment, Hou Ziming leaped out of the water with Zuo Yiyun in his arms. Shui Qiannan could clearly feel that Zuo Yiyun's aura was unstable, as if he was heavily injured.
Hou Ziming was also wounded by the sword and looked to be in a sorry state. He glared at Shui Qiannan and scolded him, ”Shui Qiannan, how dare you!”
Hou Qingyu frowned slightly and asked, ”Second brother, what do you mean?”
”I don't know how Second Miss Zuo fell into the water, but I did meet the killer in the water. Otherwise, how could Second Miss Zuo fall into the water and disappear without a trace?” Hou Ziming looked at Shui Qiannan and said coldly.
”So you think I sent the killer?” Shui Qiannan asked.
”In the water, those killers said that they would assassinate Yu'er under your orders. They said that they would take money from her and help her get rid of her, and that you told them that you would push her down later and they would kill her. Until I said that this person wasn't Yu'er, he actually wanted to kill me and silence me! ” Hou Ziming said angrily, ”So you want to push Yu'er into the lake and let those people kill her!”
”No, this is not true. Elder sister, even if my little sister was in the wrong, how could you be so ruthless as to take my life?! ”No wonder, no wonder I fell, you're not going to pull me, you want me to fall into the lake myself, right?” Shui Qianyu sorrowfully said.
As if suddenly enlightened, he said: ”Could it be that because Second Miss Zuo pulled me, you decided to vent your anger on her and push her down?”
”Second brother, how did you get away unscathed? Didn't they say they were going to kill you and silence you?” Hou Qingyu could not help but ask when he saw the many flaws in Hou Ziming's words.
”If it wasn't for Second Miss Zuo desperately trying to kill me, do you think I would have come back? ”However, Second Miss Zuo …” Hou Ziming looked at Zuo Yi Yun in her arms as he spoke in a depressed tone.
”Take Second Miss Zuo back to the Zuo Residence to see a doctor. It won't do Second Miss Zuo any good to drag it on like this.” Hou Qingyu said rationally.
He looked at Hou Ziming with a hint of doubt in his eyes. With Shui Qiannan's personality, he disdained doing such a thing. Even if she wanted to take care of Shui Qianyu, she would do it herself.
