C28 (2/2)
As expected, good people are hard to do!
”Let go, or we'll all die!”
It was unknown if Concubine Qing had heard Bai Zhiling's words, but she slowly loosened her grip on the boat and allowed Bai Zhiling to lead her to the side of the small boat.
Due to being flooded with so much water, he had already lost consciousness.
”Over there, over there!”
At this time, the person who called for help was already coming over. When Bai Zhiling saw the person who came, she frowned.
Almost all of them were guards from the mansion!
This was the backyard of the prince's mansion, and even if it was patrolled by guards, it would still be in the outer court, so how could it have arrived so quickly!
It was summer now, and the dress was light. As long as one got wet, they would stick close to the body. Everything could be seen clearly!
Why did maidservant, who wasn't a fool, call so many guards over?
Bai Zhiling looked around. Right now, they were closer to the other shore, so she could only grit her teeth and swim in that direction with Concubine Qing.
Fortunately, his previous self had good physical strength. Although he was tired after taking Concubine Qing ashore, he still had some strength left in him.
Those people would definitely come over later. They had to find a place to hide.
She probed Concubine Qing's aura. Although it was a bit weak, it wasn't too bad. After all, she had only been in the water for a short period of time.
Bai Zhiling looked around and found a cluster of fake mountains not far behind them. She carried Concubine Qing on her back and walked towards the fake mountains. They found a small cave that could only fit two people.
Only now did he put Concubine Qing down and press the water in her stomach.
”Princess, Concubine Qing, where are you?”
”Princess, where are you?”
A quarter of an hour later, Bai Zhiling heard shouts from outside. There were many people, men and women alike.
Bai Zhiling narrowed her eyes. He shouted towards the entrance of the cave, ”This Concubine is here!”
To Bai Zhiling's surprise, the first person to arrive was the full moon.
”Esteemed wangfei, are you alright? You really scared this servant to death.”
”Full moon, why are you here?”
”This servant heard that something happened to the wangfei, so I came here worried.”
Bai Zhiling saw that she was indeed alright, so she said, ”Alright, go and find two large cloaks now. Remember, you must move quickly.”
Seeing her body dripping wet, Full Moon immediately understood that there were more than ten guards outside!
”Yes, this servant will go immediately.”
Bai Zhiling's shout had been short, so the people looking for her didn't notice.
”Cough, cough …”
Concubine Qing, who was on the ground, coughed lightly and woke up. She looked around in a daze.
”Wang-wangfei …”
Bai Zhiling glanced at her but didn't say anything. When Concubine Qing saw Bai Zhiling's indifferent expression, she suddenly felt a little flustered. She was indeed afraid of the wangfei's lotus pond … Therefore, she had chosen to dive into the water. Back then, she didn't think too much into it. Now that she thought about it, if the wangfei hadn't gone to save her back then, she might have lost her life.
Thinking of this, Concubine Qing staggered up and knelt in front of Bai Zhiling. ”Thank you, esteemed wangfei, for saving me.”
”Aunt, Aunt, where are you?”
At that moment, Little maidservant ran over from where they were.
Concubine Qing was the little maidservant who served her at her side.
”I'm here, Yu'er.”
Yu'er went over to find them. When she saw the wet clothes on Concubine Qing's body, she shot an unfriendly glance at Bai Zhiling.
