After being expelled from the palace, she returned with her cub and amazed the whole city

Chapter 242: Throwing oneself into the lake out of fear of crime

A Jinyiwei sneered: "Bah! You are worthy of being called the eldest princess. When the two countries are fighting, you are secretly communicating with the enemy country. Is this what a princess should do?"

Song Yunzhi stared in disbelief. How did the news of such a top-secret matter leak out?

"You, you are slandering me!"

"You lowly people, you are not worthy of talking to this princess, get out of here, let the surname Xiao come to talk!"

Looking at the Jinyiwei step by step, Song Yunzhi continued to retreat.

"Haha! You really think you are still a princess, and you will be a prisoner soon. You are overestimating yourself. Are you worthy of meeting the emperor?" A Jinyiwei said contemptuously.

Song Yunzhi glanced at the cabin on the second floor, and the lights inside were already on.

With no cards in her hand, Song Yunzhi still wanted to try to quibble. She racked her brains, but she couldn't find a way to get rid of the charge of treason and kidnapping the heir.

The situation was over, and she was unwilling to surrender and become a prisoner.

When her hand touched the railing of the pleasure boat, she looked at the Jinyiwei approaching.

She gritted her teeth and leaned back.

"If you want to die, it's not that easy!"

Just as the Jinyiwei was about to reach out to grab her, Xiang Song, who was standing on a high place, shouted, "Don't stop her, let her go."

A "plop" sounded, but there was no big splash.

At this time, Xiang Yang also arrived.

Seeing the lake calm down, Xiang Yang pulled Xiang Song aside, "Boss, how can you let her jump into the lake to commit suicide? Lu Zhizhou is still waiting to try her."

Xiang Song lowered his voice and said, "You know nothing, how to try her, let her tell the master and Miss Jiang about the matter of Sui Sui in the court? When she is about to die, she will definitely make random accusations to damage the girl's reputation."

Xiang Song is more perceptive than Xiang Yang. He sees the master's thoughts. For the safety of the young master, as long as the girl has not entered the palace, the young master's identity should not be publicized.

Xiangyang scratched the back of his head, "I didn't expect this."

Xiang Song glared at Xiangyang, "The master's status is different now, we can do the dirty work, and use your brain more in everything."

"I understand, we are the knife in the master's hand, as long as we are good to the master, we don't mind if the knife is stained with blood."

Xiang Song patted Xiangyang on the shoulder, "The boy is teachable and has made progress. If the master blames me for this, I will take full responsibility."

"Don't look down on me, brother, brothers should share happiness and difficulties. If the master really blames me, I will go to the Imperial Household Temple to feed horses." Xiangyang said and straightened his chest.

Xiang Song was very moved and nodded, "Well! You feed the horses, I apologize."

"Then Sui Sui..." Xiangyang looked at the cabin.

"It's all right, I have arranged people to guard it, I'll leave it to you here, I'll report the situation here to the master."

After a while, a pleasure boat approached, and Lu Zhizhou asked people to take all the criminals away.

In the cabin, Sui Sui yawned and asked, "Aunt, why hasn't mother come in yet?"

"Shh! Don't shout, your mother's dress is soaked, the emperor brother must have taken her away first, we have someone to escort her back, don't think too much, go to sleep."

"Well, with daddy here, I'm not worried."

Changle pulled up the thin quilt and held Sui Sui in her arms. After Sui Sui's tense mood relaxed, her eyelids soon became heavy.

In the cabin of another pleasure boat, Xiao Jingzhao searched around but couldn't find a woman's dress.

Jiang Shuyue looked at the soaked embroidered shoes and skirt, "Your Majesty, don't look for it. This is a sightseeing boat. There is no way there are spare dresses in it. Your Majesty can leave first when the boat docks."

"What are you afraid of?" Xiao Jingzhao narrowed his eyes.

Jiang Shuyue was slightly stunned.

What else can she be afraid of? She is already famous enough in the capital, and she doesn't want to be on the headlines in the capital tomorrow.

Xiao Jingzhao seemed to have seen through her thoughts and said with a smile: "There are no strangers on this pleasure boat. Suisui is taken care of by someone. I will send you back later."

Jiang Shuyue was about to refuse when she heard Xiang Song coming to see her.

Xiao Jingzhao walked to the screen and asked: "How are Changle and Suisui? Has the criminal been handed over to Lu Zhizhou?"

"The princess and the young master have traces of being strangled by ropes on their wrists and ankles, and some bruises, but no other injuries."

Xiang Song originally wanted to say that the princess and the young master were not frightened, but he carefully recalled the scene of seeing the princess and Suisui.

The two were so happy that people who didn't know would think they came to the lake to enjoy the moon.

Xiang Song paused and reported again: "Your Majesty, Song Yunzhi jumped into the lake out of fear of punishment. It was my negligence. I beg Your Majesty to punish her."

Xiao Jingzhao pursed his lips and said after a moment of silence: "She jumped into the lake out of fear of punishment. What crime have you committed? Order Lu Zhizhou to send people to salvage her and not pollute the Wax Apple Lake."

Xiang Song bowed, "I obey your command."

The footsteps faded away, and Jiang Shuyue stood up and walked to the window.

The pleasure boats on the lake were all rowing towards the shore.

Feeling the person behind her approaching, Jiang Shuyue turned around and their eyes met.

"She committed suicide. Will this affect you?"

Xiao Jingzhao said gently: "No, she has all the evidence of having an affair with the third prince of Liang. Even if she dies, she will not escape the judgment of the government."

"Yue Niang, can I call you that?" Xiao Jingzhao seemed to have a hint of grievance in his tone.

Jiang Shuyue raised her eyes, the bright moonlight reflected his handsome face, the night wind blew, a strand of black hair fluttered, handsome and extraordinary.

The phoenix eyes stared at her ardently, and Jiang Shuyue's heartbeat accelerated inexplicably.

She quickly looked away, "Yes, of course, everyone calls me that."

Seeing her eyes evading, Xiao Jingzhao curled his lips and smiled lightly. He followed Jiang Shuyue's line of sight and saw the vast night sky twinkling with stars.

He asked with a smile: "Yue Niang, why do you think Chang'e stood alone under the laurel tree and looked at the world?"

Jiang Shuyue: "..."

The emperor didn't go to the lake tonight, why did his brain get flooded?

"Ahem! This... maybe she is greedy for the beauty of the world." Jiang Shuyue coughed dryly and made up a lie.

"No, I thought she was waiting for someone to reunite, and that person might be a mortal."

Jiang Shuyue was stunned for a moment and nodded randomly: "Maybe."

But secretly complained in his heart, Your Majesty, you are so good at talking nonsense, it's a waste of talent not to write a storybook.

Zhu Bajie went to Guanghan Palace to play with Chang'e, did you blow the pig up to the sky?

After a moment, Xiao Jingzhao said again: "Yue Niang, the night is so beautiful tonight. Next year's Mid-Autumn Festival, let's take Sui Sui to the lake to enjoy the moon, okay?"

"The emperor is busy with all kinds of affairs, how can he have so much free time? The moon is full once a month, and there is nothing to see." Jiang Shuyue said seriously.

Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him but not understanding the romance, Xiao Jingzhao's eyebrows jumped slightly.

Just when he was about to persuade her, he heard the guards outside report: "Your Majesty, the boat has docked."

"Turn off all the lights and let everyone retreat."

With an order, the brightly lit pleasure boat darkened instantly.

"I'll take you back."

Before she finished speaking, a big hand reached her waist.

When Jiang Shuyue came to her senses, her feet had been taken off the ground.
