Chapter 79 Falling in Water (2/2)
“How dare you!” Eldest princess snapped at Lan You Nian as she stood, standing together with Lan You Nian at the small pavilion’s edge.
Barely noticeable, Lan You Nian raised her eyes.Scanning around the small pavilion on the lake, she can see the attention of the young masters and ladies on the shore were all fixated here.Perhaps it was because of the eldest princess, maybe it was because of her, but what can’t be denied is that she and eldest princess have truly become the center of attention of others.If at this moment something happened…
“How dare I?Don’t know why the eldest princess says this?” Lan You Nian faced the eldest princess.The eldest princess can see the smile in Lan You Nian’s apathetic eyes, but that smile didn’t reach her eyes.
“You…Lan You Nian, you are bold!” the eldest princess growled.Perhaps because no one ever dared to be so arrogant in front of her, the eldest princess couldn’t even say anything to retort.Indeed, a princess raised in the imperial family, Lan You Nian thought.If the one standing here today were the second princess or third princess, they definitely wouldn’t be like this.This eldest princess was too well-protected by the Empress.
“Bold?Is this lady boldness greater than the princess’s boldness?” Lan You Nian took one more step closer to the eldest princess, “What does princess want to do now that you’ve invited this lady here?”
Eldest princess stared at Lan You Nian in horror.She didn’t expect that the girl who stood shorter than her was actually so astute that she already could tell she wanted to harm her.
“What are you talking about?This princess doesn’t understand!I warn you, if you commit the crime of offending your superiors, this princess will have your entire clan slaughtered!” the eldest princess said emboldened, clearly wanting to provoke Lan You Nian, but will Lan You Nian be fooled?
“Eldest princess is really quite impressive.Even without any evidence, you can kill Feng nation’s great and noble general’s entire clan.Don’t know if this matter was known by the Emperor, what is the eldest princess’s fate?Will it be a conviction?Or maybe you’ll be sent away as a peace marriage (arranged marriage between two nations to attain peace)?Or…” Lan You Nian shuffled closer as she whispered in the eldest princess’s ear.
“No, that won’t happen, that won’t happen!” eldest princess anxiously refuted, as if telling herself not to be afraid.
“Really won’t happen?Do you want this lady to try?” As soon as Lan You Nian finished speaking, she seemed ready to leave to go tattletale to the Emperor.The Eldest princess panicked.She didn’t expect that her unintentional words allowed Lan You Nian to have a hold over her.If Emperor Father knew, Emperor Father would definitely punish her, no, she can’t let her go!
Seeing Lan You Nian prepared to turn away, the eldest princess was swallowed by panic.She went to grab onto Lan You Nian to prevent her from going to Emperor Father to complain, but she didn’t expect that when her hand touched Lan You Nian, Lan You Nian fell from the pavilion’s edge, falling into the lake.
The eldest princess was stunned.She didn’t know what happened.She only wanted to grab her, to prevent her from leaving but didn’t expect that the girl in front of her actually fell into the lake.What the eldest princess didn’t know was that for the people on the shore, it was the eldest princess who pushed Lan You Nian and caused Lan You Nian to fall into the lake.
Lan You Nian smiled, holding her breath as she fell into the lake.Through the clear water of the lake, she could see the eldest princess’s flustered and bewildered expression.She sneered.In reality, the eldest princess had deliberately provoked her, then intended to have her push the eldest princess into the lake.With so many witnesses on the shore, though no one heard anything they said, they could only see her push the eldest princess into the lake.Although she was the general’s daughter, if she offended her superior and hurt the princess, then her fate, even if it wasn’t death, it will be peeling a layer of skin off her.The Empress’s faction really came up with a great idea.
But the eldest princess’s schemes were either too poor or that Lan You Nian was too smart.When Lan you Nian realized eldest princess’s intentions, she turned it around and made the other have a taste of their own medicine.She deliberately found problems with the eldest princess’s words to threaten and intimidate the eldest princess, then from the corner of her eyes, noticing when the eldest princess touched her, she deliberately pretended to be pushed into the lake.This way, although it can’t do anything to the eldest princess, from now on, the eldest princess’s future won’t be easy to walk, because she(LYN) had a father who wanted to repay her and a protective maternal grandfather.
A figure sank into the cold lake. A huge splash of water made Lan You Nian aware that someone came to save her, however, Lan You Nian didn’t expect the person to move so fast.She just fell, and now this person already jumped in after her.Through the ripples in the water, Lan You Nian saw the person.It was Feng Yi Xuan.
Lan You Nian could clearly see the Feng Yi Xuan’s dour face, the dissatisfaction, and anxiety in the eyebrows, and the worry in the eyes searching for her.When they landed on her, those eyes flashed with substantial hostility.
After Lan You Nian left, Feng Yi Xuan did not allow You Nian to leave his line of sight.He watched as Lan You Nian entered the pavilion in the heart of the lake, saw Lan You Nian curtsy, saw Lan You Nian and the eldest princess say who knows what, saw the eldest princess enraged, and saw how Lan You Nian’s face wore a smile.In the end, he saw Lan You Nian fall into the lake.Others may not see clearly, but he saw clearly.The eldest princess did not push her, it was she who jumped on her own.With her skill, how can the eldest princess push her into the lake?
Feng Yi Xuan was angry just because of this.His Nian Nian can scheme against others, she can play however she wants to, but she was not allowed to use her own physical safety as a bargaining chip.He would rather she directly killed the eldest princess, and he will help her clean up: he didn’t want to see her small figure fall into the lake.That kind of feeling was as if someone squeezed his heart, making his entire person filled with fear and worry.He couldn’t see anything.He used qinggong to promptly jump into the lake.Seeing the girl who was seductive like a water demon in the water, with her eyes looking straight at him, Feng Yi Xuan didn’t know how to vent his anger.
Feng Yi Xuan’s posture was like an arrow that left the bowstring.He quickly swam to Lan You Nian’s side and scanned the girl who blinking her eyes at him.Obviously, nothing happened at all, otherwise, have you seen someone’s veil is still securely covering their face after falling into water?
Stretching out his long arms and dragged Lan You Nian into his arms, he swam to the surface with Lan You Nian, but the cold aura around him only increased further.In the past, whenever he was with Lan You Nian, he deliberately dissipated his cold aura, but now he released it without reservation.Lan You Nian was a bit overwhelmed.She didn’t understand what’s going on with the man who was holding her.
When Feng Yi Xuan flew out of the water with Lan You Nian, landing on the pavilion in the center of the lake, Lan Mo Xian and others finally sighed in relief and snapped orders at the palace maids to hurry to ask for an imperial physician.
Lan Mo Xian took off his cloak and handed it to Feng Yi Xuan.Feng Yi Xuan wrapped up Lan You Nian who was hiding under his cloak in the dry one and tightly encased her in it, not allowing others to sneak a peek.Even now, he still remembers how the girl was like a water demon in the lake, mind-blowingly seductive.
“No, it has nothing to do with this princess.She jumped on her own!” the eldest princess seeing how the people around her looked at her with blaming dissatisfied eyes, she hastily explained.
But Feng Yi Xuan with just one throw of his palm caused the eldest princess to fall into the lake.Although he knew Nian Nian deliberately fell into the lake herself, but if it wasn’t for the eldest princess, how could Nian Nian do something that hurts herself.So Feng Yi Xuan at this moment vented his anger on the eldest princess.
The surrounding guards were prepared to jump in to save the princess, but Feng Yi Xuan’s glanced coldly at them.Just this one glance made the guards all frozen in place, not daring to move.In the end, it was second wangye who rushed over and snarled at the guards,” What are you doing!?Hurry save the princess!If anything happens to the princess, watch your heads!”
Because of the long delay, the eldest princess was already unconscious after being saved, and because no one was as considerate as Feng Yi Xuan, with the eldest princess wearing so thin, her curves were revealed.This caused the surrounding crowd of young masters to have nose bleeds.
After having the eldest princess taken away to be healed, second wangye reprimand Feng Yi Xuan, “Sixth brother, shouldn’t you explain?”
But Feng Yi Xuan didn’t reply with an answer.He merely left holding onto Lan You Nian.At this moment he felt anxious in his heart, because the girl in his arms, due to the lake water, her body became cold.Using his qinggong, Feng Yi Xuan flew to You Nian Pavilion.Meanwhile, Feng Xia Qi stayed behind to deal with the remaining problems.
