The princess traveled through time for a year to help the prince build his kingdom and then left

The next day was the day Qi Siyue asked Qin Rubing to go boating on the lake.

Feeling sorry for spending the more than 2000 taels of silver, Qi Siyue still wore the newly bought hairpin when she went out.

This lake cruise was arranged by the future Crown Princess, and most of the noble ladies in the imperial capital gave her face.

Qin Rubing was wearing a lavender dress.

When she arrived at the East Lake, she found that many noble ladies had already arrived.

Yingyingyanyan, so lively.

Wu Lijuan and Qin Yurou also came.

They all vied to greet Qi Siyue.

Qi Siyue was dressed in an elegant manner, and with the "Golden Branch Hairpin", she had the bearing of a Crown Princess.

The ladies all praised her, "Miss Qi's hairpin is so beautiful, where did you buy it?"

Qi Siyue responded generously: "I bought it at the Gold and Silver Shop. There is only one copy."

The ladies sighed again and again: "It's the only one?"

"What a pity."

Seeing Qin Rubing coming, Qi Siyue hurriedly took the initiative to step forward.

"Ms. Qin, I'm so glad you can come and join me."

Qin Rubing smiled at Qi Siyue: "Miss Qi's hairpin is really beautiful."

Then, she said to everyone, "I heard that the Gold and Silver House will launch a similar model tomorrow. You can go and have a look."

"Really? That's great. I'll go take a look tomorrow."

"what?"

Qi Siyue's smile froze.

She was the star for only one day?

Will the streets be full of them tomorrow?

Qin Rubing must have said this on purpose.

She suppressed her dissatisfaction and turned her head away.

The coachman of the Prime Minister's Mansion suddenly had diarrhea before going out, and Shuanzi happened to appear and replaced him in time.

At this time, the carriages were all parked by the lake.

Shuanzi saw Qin Rubing talking to Qi Siyue from afar.

"She's here after all."

Shuanzi said in his heart, "Since you are here, I will definitely protect you."

At this time, the carriage of Pingyang Marquis Mansion drove over.

Zhu Shijie, dressed in red, got off the carriage.

"Miss Qi, why don't you invite me to such a lively event?"

Qi Siyue knew that Zhu Shijie was close to the prince, so she hurriedly said politely, "Don't blame me, my lord. The ladies I invited today are all from the boudoir."

Zhu Shijie looked around and laughed, "This prince likes to live among flowers."

Qi Siyue couldn't refuse, so she invited Zhu Shijie and the ladies to board the cruise ship together.

Shuanzi ran over and asked Qi Siyue, "Miss, please let me come aboard and serve you."

He glanced at Chuntao and said, "Chuntao can't swim. I'm afraid she will get seasick."

Chuntao's face turned red immediately.

Qi Siyue glanced at Chuntao and nodded.

Young ladies from various families boarded the cruise ship one after another.

This is a luxury cruise ship that can carry twenty to thirty people.

There are tables and chairs on the boat, with fruits and snacks on them.

Qin Rubing found a seat and sat down.

Zhou Yutong, the granddaughter of Minister of War Zhou Yuxuan, happened to sit next to Qin Rubing.

Miss Zhou has a cheerful personality and took the initiative to introduce herself.

Qin Rubing nodded slightly at her.

Zhuxiang stood behind Qin Rubing, always alert to the movements around her.

The boat sailed towards the center of the lake.

There is a lotus field there, which is very beautiful.

When they arrived near the waters where lotus flowers flourished, the ladies stood up and walked to the side of the boat to admire the lotus flowers.

Miss Zhou said to Qin Rubing enthusiastically, "Let's go and take a look too."

Qin Rubing saw Wu Lijuan and Qin Yurou surrounding Qi Siyue on the left side of the boat.

She then said to Miss Zhou, "Let's go to the right side of the boat, where there are fewer people."

"it is good."

Miss Zhou stood up and followed Qin Rubing to the railing on the left side of the boat.

Miss Zhou was in high spirits and kept pointing at the lotus flowers and talking and laughing.

Qin Rubing listened indifferently without saying anything.

She saw Qi Siyue coming over from the corner of her eye.

He quickly turned sideways and looked at Qi Siyue.

Qi Siyue stood two meters away from her, smiled at her, and looked at the lotus with admiration on her face.

Zhou Yutong stood on the right side of Qin Rubing, glanced at Qi Siyue and said nothing.

Zhuxiang stood on Qin Rubing's left side, holding her arm.

Qin Rubing stared at Qi Siyue, but couldn't see any clues.

Besides, the two of them were quite far away from each other, and Qi Siyue couldn't reach her even if she wanted to push her.

At this moment, the ship shook violently.

Wu Lijuan's maid seemed to have lost her balance and fell to the ground. Before she fell, she grabbed Zhuxiang.

Zhuxiang was pulled hard by her and fell down.

For fear of implicating the young lady, Zhuxiang had to let go of Qin Rubing's arm before she fell.

At the same time, Wu Lijuan pushed Zhou Yutong hard.

Zhou Yutong's body rushed out of the railing.

Qin Rubing's eyes turned cold, and she quickly grabbed Zhou Yutong's belt and threw it back with force.

Zhou Yutong's body fell towards the cabin.

Her maid quickly supported her.

Qin Rubing fell overboard due to inertia.

Fortunately, my back was leaning against the railing.

Qin Rubing was just about to take a breath when she saw Qi Siyue, who was still standing two meters away, smiling at her again.

Her smile was a little weird.

Before Qin Rubing could react, she heard a creaking sound.

The railing behind her broke!

Qi Siyue just smiled and watched Qin Rubing fall backwards into the lake.

Qin Rubing was not nervous when she first fell into the water because she was a good swimmer.

However, as soon as she emerged from the water, she felt someone pulling her down from the bottom of the water.

"Someone fell into the water!"

Hearing the ladies' screams, Zhu Shijie rushed over immediately.

Seeing that it was Qin Rubing who fell into the water, he immediately climbed over the railing and jumped into the water.

He dived down, but didn't see anyone.

He surfaced and looked around.

The water was calm and no one was visible.

Shuanzi rushed over and asked Qi Siyue for instructions: "After all, this is an event organized by the eldest lady. It would be bad if someone died. I want to go down and save them."

Qi Siyue looked at the calm water surface and estimated that the time was almost up, so she said hurriedly: "Quick, go down and save people!"

Shuanzi jumped into the water.

Unlike Zhu Shijie, Shuanzi dived underwater to search as soon as he got into the water.

He guessed that there must be a killer under the water.

Qin Rubing, who was in the water, could clearly see several men in black around her, and they were all dragging her to the bottom of the water.

No matter how good she is at swimming, she can't match the strength of so many men.

An incense stick of time passed, and neither Zhu Shijie nor Shuanzi found Qin Rubing.

Qi Siyue curled her lips quietly and said helplessly to everyone: "It's no use looking for it all the time. Let's go ashore first and ask Jingzhao Prefecture to send someone to salvage it."

She almost said "salvage the body."

Zhuxiang cried anxiously, "We can't go back, the young lady is still in the lake."

"Please, save our young lady."

Qi Siyue frowned and said, "How dare you! You have no right to speak here."

Zhou Yutong was also very anxious and shouted to Zhu Shijie: "Zhu Shizi, please look for it again."

Zhu Shijie glanced at Zhou Yutong. This lady was the only one with some conscience.

Li Yong, dressed as the boatman, walked around the railing but did not see anyone emerging from the water.

There was no trace of blood on the water.

He was secretly delighted:

"Is it done?"
