The moon shines on the night and the river is deep, and the lake is shining. Silver wind chimes hung on the carved beams of the ship's pillars, and the night wind blew by, and the glazed sheets collided with each other, making a clear sound.

Gu Shuyi slowly stepped onto their boat with the help of the maid. The moonlight was shining with a fair complexion, and the delicate and white earlobes wore jade earrings. She has a shallow smile and happens to be everywhere, she is slim, speaks softly, and has a kind of extravagance from the inside out, but it doesn't make people feel uncomfortable.

She didn't recognize the man in front of her, and out of courtesy, she felt that she should come and apologize.

After Gu Shuyi approached, he realized that this man was so good-looking, like a flawless piece of beautiful jade, precious and beautiful, and difficult to hold on himself.

There was a thin scent of alcohol on the man's body, and there seemed to be a faint smoke in his eyebrows.

After a long time, Gu Shuyi heard him say: "It's okay."

Gu Shuyi was stunned, this man even had such a pleasant voice.

Fortunately, the light on the boat was not very good, so that people did not notice her increasingly red face.

She bowed her knees and saluted the man in front of her, "Thank you very much."

Gu Shuyi was reluctant to leave. She wanted to ask the man's name, but the girl's shyness made her unable to speak.

The maid couldn't help but urged, "Miss, it's time to go back."

Gu Shuyi took root under her feet and couldn't take a step forward. She squeezed the kerchief in her hand, and her eyes waved on him many times.

He wore a brocade black straight embellishment, a wide waistband with moiré embroidery on his waist, and a piece of white half-moon jade with excellent texture. Looking at the dressing up, he must be very human.

Gu Shuyi did not hold back. Before the man left, he blushed and asked, "Dare to ask the son's name."

Zhao Shi stopped and turned around. The dark pupils looked at her calmly.

Gu Shuyi's cheeks were heated by this gaze, she cast aside the shyness in her heart, and smiled calmly at him, "Meeting together is also a kind of fate. If the son doesn't want to say it, I won't be overwhelmed by others."

Zhao Shi still did not speak while pursing her lips. Seeing her smile, she easily lost her mind. He thought for a long while, but he hadn't spoken yet.

On the other side of the cruise, a little girl suddenly exclaimed, "Come on! Someone has fallen into the water!"

Zhao Shi's instinct was not good, and he looked in the direction of the sound. He only saw the hem of the familiar skirt swaying, and the hem of the light gauze skirt was as thin as a mist, and it was fleeting.

Zhao Shi's face changed drastically, his pupils shrank, and without thinking, he ran over there.

With only the sound of water, someone had already jumped into the water to save people before Zhao Shi.

The pearl fell into the water accidentally, and to be precise, it was not accidental. Instead, someone pushed her back while leaning most of her body and looking towards the shore.

She flopped in the water several times, and some lake water filled her throat, almost choking her to death.

The water in the lake was bone-cold again, and her whole face was pale.

When Mingzhu thought she was going to drown in this lake, she had two hands on her waist. She raised her wet eyelids and heard the person who was fishing her waist whispering words in her ear, "Offended. "

Song Huaiqing picked up the Pearl from the water, Zhao Shi's face turned black, his expression was already ugly, he couldn't be ugly, he was very upset.

The other men on the boat avoided looking consciously and didn't look there.

Song Huaiqing's clothes were also soaked. He glanced at Zhao Shi and explained: "The matter is urgent and I have no intention of offending."

Zhao Shi held Mingzhu horizontally in his arms, wrapped her body tightly with a blanket, strode Meteor walked into the compartment of the cabin, "Prepare hot water, and get a clean dress."

Mingzhu shivered coldly in his arms, her lips turned pale, and her soaked clothes were uncomfortable against her body.

Zhao Zhi strained a cold face and stretched out his hand to her, trying to unfasten the buckle on her placket.

Mingzhu wouldn't let him take it off, "I'll do it myself."

Zhao Shi's face was gloomy and watery, his fingers squeezed her clothes button, and without a word, she stripped off all the wet clothes from her body.

Mingzhu's thin face shrunk in the quilt, and her body gradually warmed up. She didn't look at Zhao Shi, she was in a daze, when he didn't exist.

The maid brought the prepared clothes, put them on the table, and walked out quietly, not daring to disturb the two of them.

Zhao Shi looked at her coldly and asked, "What are you running around?"

Mingzhu counted the mandarin ducks on the pillows, and counted them again if they were wrong, and didn't pay attention to what he said.

When the man suddenly pinched her chin, she knew that he was talking to her just now.

"I didn't run around, just want to see if the fireworks will continue."

"Then fell into the water?"

"Yeah. I didn't stand firm."

Mingzhu didn't want to tell him that she was pushed down. She turned her back to that person, and she didn't know who made the black hand. Mentioning things without evidence is like making excuses for yourself.

Zhao Shi stared into her eyes, he sneered, the pain in his smile flashed, and he asked dumbly, "Didn't you want to take this opportunity to find life?"

Jumping into the lake to find a short sight is also something she can do. She used to put a knife on her neck before, forcing him to let her go.

Mingzhu was so stupid, he thought she was jumping into the lake to find a short sight? She wouldn't do such a stupid thing, besides, why did she go to die? I haven't lived enough in this life.

"I don't have one, don't slander me."

Zhao Shi leaned over and lowered his head, with long and thick eyelashes. He looked at her quietly and said, "You better be."

After finishing talking, Zhao Shi put the dress that the maid had brought in in front of her, and said lightly: "Go to the hot water to soak for a while to dispel the cold."

Mingzhu hummed, then whispered: "You go out first."

Zhao Shi turned around, "I'm waiting for you outside."

The cruise ship had already driven back to the dock. Song Huaiqing had changed his clean clothes again. He stood on the dock with his hands on his back, his eyes falling in the distance, his expression difficult to distinguish in the night.

The concubine stood trembling behind him, biting her lips and teeth to hold back the cry that was about to vent, her fingernails had already pinched her palms in blue and purple. She was too scared in her heart and knelt down with a plop.

After a long while, Song Huaiqing turned sideways, gave her a condescending look, smiled, "Get up."

She dare not.

She was also obsessed with ghosts just now, thinking that she would not be discovered, so she pushed the girl brought by the prince.

She was originally a maid in Song Huaiqing's grandmother's room. Because she looked good and could serve others, she was sent to Song Huaiqing's yard by the old lady, and she climbed into his bed as she wished before long.

She was not the only one in the young master's backyard, but she was the one most favored, and it was the extra favor that dazzled her.

The young master just looked at Mingzhu twice, and she felt that her status was in jeopardy, and impulsively pushed her into the water.

Song Huaiqing looked at her trembling body faintly, "What are you afraid of? Did I blame you?"

Although he was smiling, he looked at him coldly.

After saying this, Song Huaiqing asked someone to send her back.

Song Huaiqing knew that the women in his backyard were not fuel-efficient lamps. He had always closed one eye, and all his conspiracy and trickery were seen as a joke.

But now, he didn't even have any interest in watching jokes, and suddenly felt dull.

When Mingzhu was pushed down by her, Song Huaiqing stood behind them. He was a bystander watching the show.

Song Huaiqing also knew that this small common room was very jealous, and when she pushed the pearl into the lake, he thought it was quite interesting.

But watching Mingzhu's pitiful thumping, he didn't know why he jumped to save others.

The thin waist that I met across the fabric is indeed...somewhat unforgettable.

At some point, Zhao Shi had already walked up to him, and the two stood together in silence.

Song Huaiqing closed the folding fan in his hand and asked with a smile, "The prince won't blame me for being nosy."

Zhao Shi looked at the lake without saying a word.

Song Huaiqing didn't seem to have any other thoughts, it seemed that he was really only trying to save lives.

"You are not a nosy person."

"Life is a matter of life, no matter how badly I am, I can't bear to see your beloved die in front of me."

Zhao Shi looked at him with an unfamiliar gaze. He knew Song Huaiqing might not have that kind of thought for Mingzhu, but the scene of him holding Mingzhu ashore still stung his eyes.

Song Huaiqing patted him on the shoulder, "There are so many beautiful concubines in my family, you don't want to be jealous."

After Song Huaiqing said these words, he made an excuse that he would not return home early.

Zhao Zhi knew that he was trying to save people, so his heart was still sour. He rubbed his eyebrows and forced himself to forget the scene he saw.

He returned to the guest room, Mingzhu had changed his clothes, and his hair that was dripping with water was half-dry. It's beautiful and clean like a lotus flower in the water.

Zhao Shi beckoned to her, "Go back."

Mingzhu slowly walked to his side and held his hands firmly. The man asked her warmly as he walked: "You don't know how to water?"

Mingzhu shook her head, "No."

When she was a child, she stumbled and fell into a pool. She had a high fever for three days and almost burned her brain. Since then, her mother never allowed her to go to deep waters.

Zhao Shi remembered that she liked to play by the water, and heard from the people below that she was really bold when she went boating in the lake in the backyard a few days ago.

Zhao Shi grabbed her hand and walked out of the cabin.

The car driver waited at the pier all night, and the coachman thought that His Royal Highness and the Pearl girl were going to spend the night in the boat painting. When he was sleepy, he quickly patted his face and woke up when he saw the two walking towards this side.

Mingzhu didn't mean anything. She asked curiously: "Your Highness, won't you go back to the palace tonight?"

Zhao Shi's face was cold, "Where do you want me to go back?"

Mingzhu couldn't answer, and she couldn't make it clear that I hope you stay in the palace all the time.

Zhao Shi didn't expect to hear what she wanted to hear from her, so he held her waist and drove her into the carriage.

A soft voice came into his ears from behind.

"My son, excuse me."

Zhao Shi silently turned around and looked at the girl who blushed and looked at him not far away.

Gu Shuyi smiled shyly, with two shallow vortexes curling up at the corners of her mouth. She mustered up the courage to take two steps forward, "My name is Gu."

The moonlight shone on her snowy face, and her brows and eyes were reflected very tenderly.

She stood in the moonlight, pursed her lips slightly, and showed a sincere smile at him, "My name is Gu Shuyi, if I have a chance to meet in the future, I wonder if the son can tell me your name."

Although her behavior is very rude, Gu Shuyi rarely sees such a man in her eyes, and wants to take it well.

Zhao Shi still didn't listen carefully to what she said, and still thought-very similar.

He looks like when he laughs, his stature and posture are like that, and his tone of voice is likewise.

The only difference is their family background.

The only family with the surname Gu is Gu Xuelin, the official shogun. It seems that she should be the granddaughter of Gu Xuelin.

Zhao Shi did not answer directly, and before getting into the carriage, he ordered the guards to send them back.

Pearl sitting in the carriage, taking this scene into her eyes, she didn't feel anything special in her heart. This beautiful girl couldn't hide her thoughts at all, and she knew she liked him at first glance.

She speaks sternly, softly, and looks very talented. She dares to declare her name, and her family background is definitely not bad. Zhao Shi should be very satisfied, but the two of them are a good match.

Zhao Shi lifted the curtain of the car and saw that she was still eating cakes heartlessly.

Mingzhu swallowed the last bite of the sweet rice cake and almost choked herself.

Zhao Shi handed a cup of tea in front of her without a word. Mingzhu took two sips of tea before she came back to life.

She looked sideways at his gloomy face, and kindly pushed her beloved pastry in front of him, "Are you hungry? This is delicious."

Zhao Shi looked at her with eyes as deep as the sea, twitched the corners of her mouth, and laughed in her heart. She was too embarrassed to use the cakes he prepared to please him?
