One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

Chu Junyi followed them out of the courtyard with a fan in her hand. Her heart was filled with joy. Today's performance was truly marvelous, but she didn't know if there would be anything more exciting to see. Before he could finish his thought, he heard a sharp scream followed by a plop.

"Miss!"

Shen Ling Han, who was walking by the side, slipped and fell into the pond.

Mrs Zhao was stunned. She suddenly realized that the one who fell into the water was her precious daughter. She quickly shouted anxiously, "Quick, quickly go down and save them!" After saying that, his sharp sword-like gaze abruptly turned towards Shen Ninghua. He looked like he wanted to bite off a piece of her flesh.

Shen Dong was also shocked. He raised his head and looked at Shen Ninghua who had an astonished expression, frowning as he looked at the surrounding guards. Shen Ling Han fell into the water. Naturally, she couldn't let them go down there to save her. Otherwise, Shen Ling Han would have been crippled by him by now. "All of you, turn around. Greenbird, don't you know martial arts? Go save them!"

Zhao Yunxiang abruptly raised her head, her eyes carrying an indescribable cold light. "No need. Senior Qin, you go."

As soon as Madame Zhao finished speaking, Senior Servant Qin had already jumped into the water.

The pond was not very deep, but it was filled with lotus flowers. It was currently summer and the lotus leaves were lush and verdant. Shen Lingghan disappeared the moment she fell. It would probably take some effort for Qin mama to find him.

Shen Ninghua stood not far from the shore. Her gaze fell onto the lotus leaves in the water and she felt a chill in her heart. Speaking of which, the reason why she grew so many lotus flowers was because Shen Lingghan really liked to admire lotuses. Back then, when the First Prince, who was also the current Crown Prince, Baili Jinyi, saw her picking the lotus, she was immediately shocked to the core and swore to marry her as the Crown Prince's consort.

However, two months before their wedding, Baili Jingze, despite the premature timing, had forcefully exposed the crown prince's conspiracy. At that time, the crown prince's power was still very strong, so her subordinates had to risk their lives to escape with the evidence. On her way to the palace, she had been secretly injured by the crown prince's men and was unable to become a mother again.

After the fall of the crown prince, she lay on her bed for three months. At that time, Baili Jinze held her hand and spoke very clearly, but now that she thought back to it, it was still as clear as yesterday:

"Even if I don't have a son, I still won't marry her. "Because, while we can freely choose the successors among the royal family, you only have one."

At that time, he only felt no regrets, but now, thinking about it, he felt extremely disgusted. She must have been in such a hurry because of Shen Ling Han, the prettiest girl in the capital!

Shen Ninghua looked at the anxious Baili Jinze by the side with an indifferent expression. She felt a chill run down her spine. If Shen Linghan was the best at guessing people's hearts, then Baili Jinze was the best at lying.

He had made up countless beautiful dreams for her with lies, and in those dreams he had been infatuated, devoted, and gentle. In reality, he had personally broken her wings, trampled her down from the clouds into the mud, and then held the woman he "loved" for life as he sat in the position of the world's ruler. Yet she lay in the cold palace, rather than die, there was not even a burial place in the palace.

Baili Jinze and Chu Junyi's statuses were unique, so the guards all turned to leave. However, they didn't really feel like they should leave.

Seeing that Shen Dong was so worried that he didn't pay any attention to them, Chu Junyi waved her fan and continued watching. Even if something were to happen, the Fifth Prince was there to support him. He was just accompanying the Prince to the banquet.

Finally, there was movement in the water. After rummaging for a while, she finally grabbed Shen Linghan's clothes and pulled her up.

Mrs Zhao's face was pale. When she saw Shen Ling Han poking out of the water, she quickly instructed the mama beside her, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go help."

A few of the mama walked forward and pulled Shen Ling Han and Qin mama up in a panic. She did not expect that she had just pulled Shen Ling Han to the shore when she suddenly became clear-headed and began to struggle: "There's a ghost! There was a ghost in the water! Let me go! "

"Ling Han, daughter, what happened to you?"

Shen Ling Han didn't seem to hear Mrs Zhao's words as she continued to flop around.

One of the mama lost her balance and was almost dragged into the water. She quickly pulled her to the shore.

"Ah, what is that …"

The crowd followed her gaze and saw a wrinkled hand grabbing onto Shen Ling Han's ankle. They were so shocked that they almost dropped Shen Ling Han into the water. Shen Dong was shocked, "Quick, save the little miss!"

Qin mama, who was standing at the side, was also shocked. With a steeled face, she suddenly raised her hand and cut her wrist. Then, she used some force to push Shen Ling Han back onto the shore.

At this moment, Shen Ling Han's entire body was covered in droplets of water, and the pearl hairpin was long gone. There were still strands of aquatic plants and moss sticking to her face, making her look even more miserable.

With a worried expression, Shen Ninghua said, "Bluebird, hurry to my courtyard and get some clothes for my sister to put on." This place was the closest to Tranquil Heart Garden. As an elder sister, she had to take care of her younger sister, right?

"Yes, miss."

Mrs Zhao threw herself onto Shen Ling Han's body and repeatedly ordered people to get a doctor. Fortunately, Qi Zhengjun hadn't left yet. As soon as the Cyan Sparrow put on Shen Ling Han's coat, Qi Zhengjun came over.

Seeing Shen Ling Han's face, he was also shocked, and wanted to go up and check her pulse, but was pushed away by Shen Ling Han: "There's a ghost in the water! Mother, someone has been pulling at my feet! "

Mrs Zhao held her in her arms and used her sleeves to wipe the traces of water on her face. She sternly said, "Where's the ghost? It's clearly someone's doing something!"

Without Mrs Zhao's order, Qin mama had already dragged the person that pulled Shen Linghan out of the water. When they saw that person, they were shocked. It was the missing Zhou mama!
