Chapter 28 Rescue
He casually commented: "What kind of good news is this? We have it but can't plant it. How boring."

The system quickly replied, "It's not entirely without a solution."

Fang Lingchu stood up again instantly.

【How to say? 】

Both the Crown Prince and Minister Fang were eager to follow the system, which took them from heaven to hell, mainly for the thrill.

The system said: "[There's a genius at planting. If you give him potatoes to grow, there shouldn't be any problems.]"

Fang Lingchu asked, "Who?"

Both the Crown Prince and Minister Fang wanted to put their ears right next to Fang Lingchu's.

They were so anxious! They wished they could go over and pry open the system's mouth to ask it.

The system said: [Ma Caidie, the youngest daughter of General Ma Siqi, who was in charge of pacifying the west]

Fang Lingchu had no idea who it was, but since it was actually the emperor's subject, she figured Her Majesty could just call the person over and take care of him; there was no rush.

Fang Lingchu took a leisurely sip of tea, then said with disdain, "It's really bitter."

Only then did he slowly ask: "Where is she now?"

The system, seeing that Fang Lingchu remained calm and silent, waited for her to ask before replying: "You're about to be drowned by your mother-in-law. Go now to save her; you can still do so. Otherwise, you might end up with a corpse."

Fang Lingchu bit her tongue, spilling the tea beside her.

The maid next to her quickly came over to wipe Fang Lingchu's face.

Even the Crown Prince and Minister Fang, who were standing nearby, were taken aback by this information.

Despite the pain in her tongue, Fang Lingchu yelled at the system: "From now on, say all these important things at once!"

Then he stood up hurriedly and said to the Crown Prince, "Your Highness, I have important matters to attend to and must take my leave now."

The Crown Prince also stood up and said, "I will go with Lord Fang."

Fang Lingchu glanced at the Crown Prince. The situation was urgent; if the Crown Prince wanted to go, then he should go.

"it is good."

Then she turned and left, taking with her the four maids the emperor had given her, as well as the guards her father had given her.

Seeing her daughter so formally dressed, Madam Fang was about to go over and ask when she heard Fang Lingchu ask the system: "If we go now, how long will it take to get there, excluding travel time?"

Fang Lingchu couldn't ride a horse, so she could only take a carriage. Horses were too slow, and by the time she arrived, her body would be cold.

The system performed a calculation and said: [It is recommended that the host ride a horse, as the route will inevitably pass through Feishi Street.]

Fang Lingchu asked the strawberry next to her, "What kind of street is Feishi Street?"

Fang Lingming answered first: "Feishi Street is where refugees without houses live. It's a mixed bag, and riots happen all the time. What are you going there for, little sister?"

Although everyone knew why Fang Lingchu went, they still pretended to ask.

Fang Lingchu called out to her second brother, "I need to cross a river over there. Second brother, do you know any way to get there quickly?"

Fang Lingming glanced at the maids behind his sister and said, "Why don't you just have them take you there on horseback?"

Fang Lingchu's own few highly skilled maids, what her brother said makes a lot of sense.

At this time, the carriage and horses were ready. Fang Lingchu had someone ride a horse to her, and then had her father get into the carriage to go with her.

Although she lived under the emperor's nose, Fang Lingchu was still very afraid of death, especially after using up ten years of her lifespan, she cherished her life even more.

The emperor also went along.

Soon, Fang Lingchu arrived at the place where the woman had been thrown into the pond, as the system had mentioned, led by the maid. Fang Lingchu dismounted, feeling as if her internal organs had been displaced. Before she could even catch her breath, the system said, "Go quickly to save her, she has already sunk."

Fang Lingchu quickly instructed the maid to rescue the person, and then rested for a while.

Those nearby, seeing people rushing to the rescue, shouted, "What are you doing? Help! Someone's rescuing that slut!"

When someone saw Gooseberry rescuing people, someone immediately shouted, and a group of people and servants suddenly appeared out of nowhere, surrounding Fang Lingchu and her companions.

Seeing this scene, Fang Lingchu could only dart around in her bosom, eventually pulling out three tokens.

After thinking for a moment, he picked up the princess's token and showed it to the leader.

The head of the household was dressed in clothes made of soft, brightly colored fabric, though not of particularly expensive material; he was clearly the steward of a wealthy family.

Upon seeing the token in Fang Lingchu's hand, the man quickly knelt down and bowed, saying, "This humble subject greets the Princess."

When the others saw that Fang Lingchu was a princess, they quickly made way and knelt down in a neat and orderly manner to pay their respects.

Fang Lingchu told everyone to get up and asked, "Why did you want to drown this woman? If I hadn't saved her in time, she would be dead."

The head steward explained, "I am the steward of Scholar Wang's household, and this woman is our scholar's wife, Ma Caidie."

At this moment, an old woman dressed like a nouveau riche walked over and said, "My daughter-in-law, Cai Die, is having an affair. According to our custom, she should be drowned in the pond. I wonder if there are any problems with that?"

Fang Lingchu looked at the old woman with a half-smile. She hated arrogant people the most, and this person just happened to have stepped on her sore spot.

Raspberry, who had just arrived, frowned slightly, clearly disliking the woman's attitude.

Fang Lingchu glanced at the raspberry and asked, "What should be done if someone is disrespectful to the princess?"

Fang Lingchu didn't even glance at her.

When the old woman heard Fang Lingchu claim to be a princess, she was so frightened that she immediately knelt down and bowed.

"This humble woman greets Your Highness. I was blind and ignorant. Please spare my life, Your Highness."

Fang Lingchu didn't say anything, but just gave Raspberry a look.

Raspberry went straight over and slapped him a few times.

The woman was stunned by the blow. When she came to her senses, she shouted, "I am the mother of a scholar. Even the prefect has to give me some face. How dare you, a princess with no power, hit me?"

Upon hearing her baffling statement, Fang Lingchu asked the system in confusion: "Didn't her son teach her about the powerful figures in the capital? How can she be so ignorant? Isn't she afraid of dying?"

Everyone looked at each other, wondering what the sound was.
At this moment, the Crown Prince and his entourage also arrived.

After glancing at the soaking wet Ma Caidie, Madam Ma quickly got down and went to her daughter's side to put a coat on her.

Then she pulled her daughter to bow to the crown prince.

Fang Lingchu had her back to the person and didn't notice anything. Only after hearing Madam Ma's words did she quickly turn around and bow to the Crown Prince.

The others, upon hearing this, quickly bowed as well.

Upon seeing the Crown Prince, whose status was even higher than Fang Lingchu's, Lin Wangshi, who was on the ground, immediately cried out, "Your Highness, save this humble woman! The Princess is about to kill someone!"

Fang Lingchu asked the system curiously, "Does this person have histrionic personality disorder?"

The system said: "[Definitely. You only let Raspberry slap her a few times, and she screamed like that. There's definitely an element of acting involved.]"

Fang Lingchu was also very certain.

The Crown Prince did not tell anyone to get up, and everyone remained kneeling. However, Fang Lingchu's thoughts reached everyone's ears.
