Keren's scream attracted the attention of the maids who came over, and Jia Cheng's maid was particularly panicked.

They were afraid that something had happened to their master.

Narcissus covered her stomach and ran desperately towards the place where the sound came from.

She was extremely panicked. Narcissus felt something was wrong when she was using the toilet. Why were all the maids around her master in trouble today?

Even though Rose was still by the master's side when she left, Rose was childish and could not take good care of the master.

Narcissus became more and more uneasy and ran faster and faster.

The other maids heard the screams and ran over to see what was going on.

The maids who were familiar with Keren recognized it as Keren's voice. They didn't know Mrs. Wang's plan, so they were afraid that something had happened to Jia Baoyu.

Baoyu is the old lady's lifeblood and the guarantee of Mrs. Wang's second half of life, so nothing can happen to him.

If anything happened to Baoyu, the maids who served him would probably have no way out.

When the maids were running towards the rockery, Jia Baoyu also hurried over.

The lovely cry just now was so sharp, thin and shrill that it traveled far away and was heard by people nearby. Baoyu no longer cared about playing hide-and-seek and quickly ran towards the place where the sound came from.

When Meiren saw Baoyu, she felt relieved, hoping that nothing happened to Baoyu.

She quickly grabbed Jia Baoyu and said, "Baoyu, don't run so fast. What if you fall? If you fall, Madam will beat us to death."

When Jia Baoyu heard Meiren's words, he immediately slowed down his pace, "Sister Meiren, did you hear Sister Keren's voice just now? Is she in trouble? I need to go over and take a look."

Meiren held Jia Baoyu's hand and said, "I heard it. Don't worry. I'll ask a quick maid to go and see what's going on."

Jia Baoyu was relieved when he heard this. Meiren saw that he was no longer anxious, so she took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Jia Baoyu's face, fearing that he would catch a cold.

Then the two of them walked slowly towards the rockery.

Narcissus ran over holding her stomach, and when she saw Rose limping, her heart suddenly lifted.

"Qiangwei, aren't you with the Third Master?" Qiangwei's face was also pale. "No, I sprained my ankle and just found a place to rest."

Narcissus became frightened when she heard this, but she also knew that she could not blame Qiangwei. There must be something strange about what happened today.

The two of them walked forward in fear, and then they saw Meiren and Jia Baoyu walking leisurely.

Narcissus was really angry now. It was clearly Jia Baoyu who dragged the Third Master out to play, and now no one knew where the Third Master was. He might be in danger, but Jia Baoyu, as a brother, was not worried at all.

what!

Narcissus decided to hate Jia Baoyu from now on.

Narcissus endured the discomfort and pulled the limping Rose to find the place where Keren had the accident. She was able to find it because the little maidservant beside Jia Baoyu kept saying that Keren had the accident.

Narcissus followed the little maid to the water's edge, and then saw the lovely girl floating on the water.

But she didn't see Jia Cheng, which made her feel relieved. She never expected that Jia Cheng was floating at the bottom of the water.

Narcissus felt half relieved, but she was still worried because she didn't see Jia Cheng, so she asked the maids around her to help her find Jia Cheng.

Meiren became anxious when she heard Narcissus's request, and quickly asked others to help find Jia Cheng.

Then the garden was filled with voices calling for Jia Cheng, and even Jia Baoyu followed suit, "Brother Cheng, where are you? Come out quickly, we don't want to play hide-and-seek anymore, come out, you win."

Zhou Rui's wife heard someone calling Jia Cheng in the garden, and thought that what the mistress had asked should have been accomplished.

As long as that little bastard Jia Cheng fell off the rockery and died, Baoyu would still be the most favored and honorable young master in the mansion.

Jia Cheng could have lived his whole life in a muddle, but unfortunately he suddenly became smart, learned medical skills, and cured the old lady.

If he had been stupid all his life, he would have lived to be a hundred years old. It's a pity that he is too ostentatious and an eyesore to his wife.

Jia Cheng became smart and capable, making Jia Baoyu look like an ignorant child, which made Mrs. Wang hate Jia Cheng to death.

So they planned this accident to kill Jia Cheng.

Mrs. Wang knew that she had no way to stop Jia Cheng from making progress, so she could only get rid of this man and put an end to it all.

Although the method is simple and crude, it is effective. When Jia Hu blocked Jia Zhu's way, he was also dealt with by Mrs. Wang, and she killed Zhang with one stone.

If Jia Lian hadn't been lucky, Mrs. Wang would probably have killed Jia Lian.

Zhou Ruijia had been involved in Jia Hu's incident back then, so she was familiar with the matter. She was too conceited to confirm Jia Cheng's death, but went straight to report to Mrs. Wang.

My wife planned this big show, so of course I have to come and see it in person.

At the same time, she also wanted everyone attending the banquet today to witness Jia Cheng's death, and then classify the incident as an accident to clear herself from the crime.

There are so many people attending the banquet today, and there are so many eyes. If everyone rushes to the place where Jia Cheng got into trouble, it will be easy to cover up the traces of their actions.

So Zhou Ruijia hurried into the hall, then concealed the happy expression on her face and turned it into an anxious look.

The women in the house were chatting and talking lively, but Zhou Ruijia ran behind Mrs. Wang with sweat all over her forehead and an anxious look on her face. Everyone could see what had happened.

Zhou Ruijia pretended not to notice everyone's gazes and whispered a few words in Mrs. Wang's ear. Mrs. Wang's face became a little stiff, and she looked at Mrs. Xing with sympathy.

Mrs. Xing frowned, having a bad feeling in her heart.

At this time, Wang Xifeng also noticed her aunt's abnormality, and she asked directly: "Sister Zhou, what happened that made you rush in so hastily? Are you in a hurry to ask us for wine?

You can't just tell the Second Wife, you have to tell me, because I'm the one who arranged today's banquet." Wang Xifeng asked calmly.

Zhou Ruijia looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak. She also looked at Madam Xing with sympathetic eyes, which made Madam Xing even more uneasy.

She said angrily, "Mrs. Zhou Rui, if you have something to say, just tell me directly. Why are you hiding it?"

Zhou Ruijia glanced at Mrs. Wang, who nodded with a heavy expression.

Zhou Ruijia sighed, "Madam, please don't worry about this matter. It seems that something has happened to Master Cheng San."

"what?"

"what?"

Mrs. Xing and Lady Jia were both a little panicked when they heard what Zhou Rui's wife said, and Lady Jia was so scared that her face turned pale.

This Jia Cheng is a precious treasure who can help him take care of his body. How could he be in trouble now? He must not be in trouble.

"Mr. Zhou Rui, something's happened to the master, and you're still hesitating here. If you have anything to say, please say it quickly."

Mrs. Zhou Rui said lightly that Baoyu and Cheng'er were playing hide-and-seek in the garden. "Cheng'er was accompanied by a group of maids. Logically, there should be nothing wrong. But just now I heard people everywhere in the garden calling for Cheng'er. It seemed that they couldn't find him. I hurried over to report it."

When Mrs. Xing heard this, she could no longer sit still and ran out.

Grandmother Jia was also a little worried, so she quickly got up and followed him out.

The Rongguo Mansion is so big, and Jia Cheng suddenly can’t be found now. If he gets bumped into or bruised, she will be heartbroken.

But Zhou Ruijia was still explaining, which was actually an indirect way of shirking responsibility, "Old lady, don't worry, this is just my guess. I heard people outside calling for Cheng'er, and I was worried. Maybe Cheng'er hid well, so no one has found him."

Grandmother Jia didn't want to listen to his explanation. Jia Cheng was so young, and although he usually acted like a little adult, the Rongguo Mansion was so big that accidents could easily happen.

She couldn't be sure that Jia Cheng was fine. It was better to believe it than not to believe it.

Mrs. Xing ran out in a panic, and the clever maid Qiuyue hurried to the front yard to report to Jia She that Jia Cheng was missing in the garden.

Although this matter seemed a bit surprising to Youshi and others, the children were just playing hide-and-seek and couldn't be found for a while. The servants were making a fuss, and the master also panicked.

It seems that Jia Cheng is really favored in the mansion, and even a small matter can cause a big fuss.

Yu Shi felt somewhat dissatisfied, but she had no choice but to go out with everyone else and pretend to be worried.

Qiuyue went to the front yard to report to Jia She, who also became anxious.

Nothing can happen to his Qilin son. Even though Cheng Ge'er is a deity who has descended to earth, he is still a mortal now.

What if someone took his son Cheng as a good person and harmed him, and Cheng went back to heaven, he would never see his divine son again.

Jia She ran to the garden with a pale face, and Jia Zheng was also a little worried about Jia Cheng.

Because Qiuyue's message was quite serious, everyone who heard it thought it was a serious matter, so they didn't care about anything else and started running towards the garden.

Anyway, the women and men attending the banquet today are all related, so even if they bump into each other, it won't be considered breaking the rules with so many people together.

In the garden where a group of people gathered, Jia She heard Mrs. Xing crying from afar.

Just now, everyone found one of Jia Cheng's shoes in the river. Everyone confirmed that Jia Cheng fell into the water. In addition, Keren drowned, so everyone guessed that Jia Cheng was in danger.

Jia Cheng took off his shoes on purpose and let them float up, otherwise these people would not be able to see him under the water.

Mrs. Xing cried her heart out, and Mrs. Wang also cried with her, but she was very happy in her heart.

She didn't expect that Jia Cheng would die in the same way as Jia Hu due to some strange coincidence. It seemed that this was God's will.

Jia She walked to Madam Xing with weak hands and feet. He pulled Madam Xing's arm and asked anxiously: "Madam, where is Cheng'er? Where is Cheng'er?"

Mrs. Xing could not speak a complete sentence. She pointed towards the river with tears in her eyes, holding a wet shoe in her hand.

Jia She's eyes were red with anger and he quickly snatched the shoes away. He had asked the embroiderer to make this pair of shoes made of Shu brocade and inlaid with pearls for Jia Cheng, so he recognized them.

Jia She had a bad feeling in his heart. He shouted and asked everyone, "What's going on? What's going on? Where is my brother Cheng? Where is my son? Where is my son?" Jia She's eyes were red and he was crazy at this moment.

Grandmother Jia had already cried so hard that she bent over, and Wang Xifeng was also feeling bad, but she was the only one who could say something at this time, "Master, Cheng'er must have fallen into the water. He is a lucky man, so he should be fine." She felt guilty even when she said this.

Before Wang Xifeng could finish her words, Jia She jumped into the river with a splash and followed the servants to rescue people.

It turned out that he hadn't noticed that there was someone fishing in the river with a net.

Jia She splashed in the water and shouted, "Cheng'er, Cheng'er, my son, how can I live without you? Come out quickly, and don't make trouble with me."

Jia She's cries were sobbing, and those who heard him were sad and shed tears.

Mrs. Wang felt extremely happy. Jia She, this unscrupulous man, had finally gotten what he wanted. He had taken away her power as the housekeeper and caused her to lose face. Now he was getting his retribution.

Jia Zheng felt very uncomfortable listening to this. He thought it was a pity for his nephew who was gifted, especially in studying.

Wang Ziteng looked at the noisy scene in front of him and wanted to leave but was too embarrassed to do so. Leaving at this time would be like hurting someone's lungs.

He looked at the water surface boredly, and suddenly his eyes widened in disbelief.

There was a strange animal the size of a palm floating on the water.

It is golden all over, with a sheep's head, wolf's hooves, a round head, a body like a musk deer, a tail like a dragon's tail, dragon scales and a horn, and radiates colorful light.

Wang Ziteng rubbed his eyes, thinking he was hallucinating.

Then he found that the animal suddenly grew larger, sank to the bottom of the water, and carried out a delicate and beautiful child from the bottom of the water.

The child closed his eyes tightly, as if he was fast asleep. The most amazing thing was that although he came out from the bottom of the water, there was not a trace of water on his body.

At this time, Jia She shouted happily, "Cheng'er, Shuanbao, my child."

The crowd could not see the animal, but only saw a child gradually emerging from the water.

But Wang Ziteng saw it clearly. He carefully observed the animal he had never seen before. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and was excited. Isn't this a Qilin? He actually saw the divine beast appear today.

Jia She carried Jia Cheng out of the water. Mrs. Xing excitedly lay on Jia Cheng and cried, "Shuanbao, you are trying to dig out my heart. I can't live without you."

Jia Cheng frowned, pretending to have just woken up, and asked in surprise: "Dad, Mom, why are you crying? What's wrong with me?"

Jia Cheng suddenly woke up, making Jia She and Mrs. Xing ecstatic.

Only Mrs. Wang almost broke her nails. She hated it! Why didn't this kid die? He was not affected at all. What kind of monster is this?

Wang Ziteng saw that the Qilin shrank to the size of a palm, then stood obediently on Jia Cheng's shoulder and rubbed his face affectionately.

Wang Ziteng observed the expressions of the people. Some people cried with joy over Jia Cheng's awakening, some people had unpredictable expressions, but it seemed that no one showed any surprise at Qilin.

Wang Ziteng suddenly thought of a possibility. He was the only one who could see the Qilin. Did this mean that he was special? And this Qilin might be his chance to rise to prominence.

Wang Ziteng's heart suddenly became hot when he thought of this. If he presented this auspicious beast to the emperor, wouldn't his status in the emperor's heart be even higher?

He just wanted to figure out why he could see the Qilin while others couldn't. How could he make others see it?

Otherwise, he would not be able to offer this Qilin.

This Qilin is very close to Jia Cheng, so it seems that the breakthrough point lies with Jia Cheng.

Thinking of this, Wang Ziteng looked at Jia Cheng with a strange look in his eyes, just like a wolf seeing a sheep.

Jia Cheng had sharp senses, so he naturally noticed Wang Ziteng's eyes.

It seems that today's performance was quite successful. Next, let's see how Wang Ziteng will make his move. It is still unclear who will be the hunter and who will be the prey!
