She paused and then said: "The lady told you to go there alone. She has something very important to say to you!"

Xiao Shengteng stood up immediately and said hurriedly: "I have something to do to see You'er, you two can talk first!"

A look of surprise flashed across Fang Laoshang's face, and he wondered: "What is the prince doing in such a hurry?"

There was a smile on Emperor An's lips: "When I came to the Ministry of War Minister's Mansion, the emperor's uncle was absent-minded. Apart from Miss Lin who can make him excited, I really can't think of another person who can make him leave in such a hurry!"

Fang Laoshangshu frowned in confusion. At this moment, Xiao You'er was entertaining the eldest princess. How could he have time to see him?

Something was going to happen, so he quickly asked the housekeeper to follow him.

Besides, Xiao Sheng noticed something was wrong before he even reached the back garden.

His cold eyes suddenly fell on the little maid next to him, and he said coldly: "Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?"

A hint of guilt flashed across the little maid's face. She was newly bought by the old lady for Fang Daya after she moved to another courtyard.

She answered cautiously: "This slave has just entered the house. The house needs a lot of manpower to prepare the dowry these days!"

Xiao Sheng frowned, and a loud thud suddenly came from his ears.

He looked over subconsciously, and by the light of the lantern, he saw a huge splash on the water.

The little maid urged anxiously: "My lord, please go and have a look. I'm afraid the eldest lady accidentally fell into the water. Please hurry up and rescue her!"

Xiao Sheng was worried that something would happen to Lin Ruo's meeting. Although he was full of doubts, he still walked over quickly.

Even though Fang Daya grew up in the countryside, she really doesn't know how to swim.

She had already tried it with a stick before, and there was shallow water near the edge, so she jumped in without hesitation.

However, due to panic, her body tilted and she actually fell down.

She was so frightened that she waved her hands wildly and shouted anxiously: "Help, my lord, come and save me!"

Xiao Sheng, who was rushing over quickly, suddenly stopped. This was not Lin Ruoyou's voice at all.

Murderous intent flashed in his eyes, he clamped the little maid's chin, and asked in a deep voice: "Tell me, who fell into the water?"

The little maid had never seen such a battle before, she was so frightened that her soul flew away.

She cried and replied: "It's our eldest lady. She accidentally fell into the water. Please help me, the prince!"

Xiao Sheng sneered, threw her to the ground, turned around and left.

The little maid crawled over on her knees without fear of death. She shouted hoarsely: "You are the regent of the dynasty, are you going to die without saving me? My eldest lady is Miss Lin's sister. Aren't you afraid that she will blame you for being cold-blooded and ruthless? ?”

Xiao Sheng looked back at her and was so frightened that she broke out in cold sweat.

He spoke slowly: "You're right, I really can't ignore death!"

Just when the little maid thought he would come to save people, she didn't expect that when he walked to the shore, he watched Fang Daya struggling in the water.

In just a few moments, she had already drank several mouthfuls of dirty water. She felt that her throat was full and her breathing was a little difficult.

She held on and shouted: "My lord, please help me, help me!"

Xiao Sheng turned his head and shouted into the darkness: "Tie Shi, go catch a beggar on the street and bring him back!"

Fang Daya might not be able to hold on in the water, so his cold eyes fell on the little maid: "You put the stick next to her into her hand and asked her to hold it tightly, but you can't save her. Otherwise, I will kick you down!"

The little maid was so scared that she handed the stick to Fang Daya tremblingly.

After Fang Daya grabbed it, he subconsciously climbed up with all his strength.

However, Xiao Sheng tied the maid to a big tree nearby with a rope so that she could not move at all.

The little maid's face turned pale with pain. She cried and said, "Your Majesty, my waist is almost broken. It hurts so much. Please spare my life, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Sheng turned a deaf ear, and the chill on his face became more and more frightening.

After drinking some tea, Tie Shi finally came back carrying a beggar.

He knelt on the ground and kowtowed with a thud: "My dear man, please spare your life!"

Xiao Sheng ordered in a cold voice: "Go and pick up the woman in the water!"

The beggar jumped into the water without saying a word.

Fang Daya was about to freeze to death at this moment. She didn't care who rescued him. She tightly strangled the beggar's neck, as if grasping the only life-saving straw.

The beggar brought her back to the shore. Fang Laoshangshu, Lin Ruoyou and the others happened to hear the noise and rushed over in time.

The old lady and the second girl also heard the news, but they didn't think about Da Ya. They thought it was some restless little maid who wanted to seduce the regent, and they were planning to come over to watch the fun.

When she saw Fang Daya, who was tightly hugged by the beggar and shivering, she almost fell into the water with her head in shock.

Fortunately, Miss Fang Er caught her wrist in time and asked her to calm down quickly.

Seeing the chaos at the scene, Fang Laoshangshu quickly shouted: "Come here, bring a cloak for the eldest girl!"

Xiao Sheng said calmly: "No need, there is a torn sack here, just put it on her first!"

When Fang Daya's body was covered, she almost rolled her eyes because of the smell.

She kept coughing violently, and she didn't know whether it was smelly or cold.

Only then did Fang Laoshangshu raise his eyebrows and ask: "Your Majesty, what is going on?"

Xiao Sheng replied in a deep voice: "You have to ask the girl who fell into the water. I am also confused and kept in the dark!"

How dare Fang Daya say that she wanted to fall into the water and let the regent rescue her, and wanted to blackmail him and make him responsible!

The only way to escape the predicament now is to pretend to be stunned!

As long as her eyes are closed, no one can interrogate her.

She did it as soon as she thought of it. She pretended to be uncomfortable and closed her eyes.

Xiao Sheng blinked at Lin Ruoyou: "You'er, please save her quickly, use your silver needle technique, isn't it very powerful?"

Lin Ruoyou understood his hint instantly, nodded immediately, and walked quickly to Fang Daya with the needle bag in hand.

A flash of uneasiness flashed in Miss Fang Er's eyes. Although she was angry at Fang Daya for getting into trouble again, she couldn't just turn a blind eye and ignore it.

She hurriedly said: "Sister Lin, I don't dare to bother you. Sister, she may just have a cold. Today is your reception banquet. It's not because she interfered with it. I will take her home to find a doctor for diagnosis and treatment!" "

After finishing speaking, she quickly ordered the little maid to come forward and carry him.

However, Xiao Sheng directly stopped her: "The eldest girl fell into the water in the Ministry of War Minister's Mansion. If she is carried away like this, it will be said that the Fang family treats relatives poorly. This stigma cannot be lost!"

Lin Ruoyou also spoke: "The prince is right, my acupuncture skills are very powerful, there is no need for the second sister to worry!"

Miss Fang Er bit her lip in embarrassment. Others might not be able to tell that Fang Daya was pretending to be dizzy because of her shame, but she had a good reputation.

What if Lin Ruoyou is really stabbed to death?
