My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne

Pfft!

The lake water splashed several meters high.

Xue Qingyao couldn't swim, so she screamed and floundered desperately in the lake, "Ah...gulp gulp..."

While struggling, her body sank again and she choked on several mouthfuls of lake water.

"master!"

Her maid Lianxin was lying on the railing, stretching out her arms to pull her up.

However, Lianxin stretched out most of her body and still couldn't reach her.

Lian Xin was hesitating whether to go for help when Xue Youli's second kick landed directly on her butt.

Pfft!

She fell into the water too!

The sneak attack was successful, and Xue Youli pulled Banxia and ran away.

Xue Qingyao and Lian Xin in the lake only saw a figure flash past in front of them, and did not see clearly who kicked them into the lake.

"Help...ugh!"

Lian Xin was not good at swimming either. She was about to call for help, but Xue Qingyao covered her mouth with her hand, "Shut up! Do you want to kill me?"

Although only palace maids and eunuchs patrolled the Imperial Garden during the day, if someone saw her in such a miserable state, there would definitely be gossip.

Lian Xin was reminded by her and finally came to her senses, "Master, please forgive me. I was trying to find someone to save us."

"No need." Xue Qingyao said, standing up from the lake. The water was only up to her waist.

She was so panicked just now that when she calmed down she realized that the place where she fell was very close to the shore and the water was not deep.

So, the master and servant supported each other, walked to the shore, and climbed up using their hands and feet.

They were soaked, their makeup was smudged, their hair was messy, and their dresses were covered in mud.

"Master, did someone push us from behind just now?" Lianxin looked around, but found that there was no one around.

Xue Qingyao narrowed her beautiful eyes and coldly spat out a name, "It's Xue Youli!"

After she entered the palace, she treated all the concubines in the harem very kindly, and the only person who was her enemy was Xue Youli.

Therefore, the person who kicked her and Lianxin into the lake must be Xue Youli!

After soaking in the lake for such a long time, her mind was completely clear. The person who spread rumors near Minghua Palace must have been instructed by Xue Youli.

She was worried that she had overlooked something, so she quietly came to the Imperial Garden to check.

She had planned everything, but she never expected Xue Youli to be so unsportsmanlike and kick her into the lake!

"Is it Miss Xue?"

Lian Xin was shocked. "Master, your position is higher than hers. How dare she harm you so blatantly?"

flagrant?

When they came to the lake just now, Xue Qingyao was worried about attracting attention, so she made up an excuse to send away all the palace maids and eunuchs.

As a result, it made it easier for Xue Youli to harm her.

Xue Qingyao clenched her fists as she thought about it, "Did anyone see her kick us into the water?"

After that bitch Xue Youli attacked them, she ran away faster than a rabbit. It was obvious that she had planned it all along.

"So what should we do now? Should we tell the Emperor about this? Concubine Xue is so unruly, the Emperor will definitely punish her severely!"

Xue Qingyao sneered, "You said Xue Youli did it, do you have any evidence?"

"Your servant..." Lianxin was speechless after her question.

They didn't catch him in the act, so it would be useless even if they reported him to the emperor. Xue Youli might even bite them back.

Therefore, even though she was filled with anger, she could only swallow this loss.

"Today...ah, ah-ah-ah-"

Before Xue Qingyao could finish her words, she sneezed violently several times.

Their clothes were soaked, and they could easily catch a cold if blown by the wind.

"Master, the wind is strong in the Imperial Garden, please take care of yourself."

How could she be careful with her clothes covered in mud and stinking dirt?

Xue Qingyao was filled with anger but had no place to vent it, so she could only grit her teeth and say, "Let's go!"

She remembered the grudge of being kicked into the lake today, and she would definitely get it back from Xue Youli with interest in the future!

After the master and servant walked away, Xue Youli and Banxia, ​​who were hiding behind the rockery, looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

It was so refreshing to see Xue Qingyao and the others slipping away covered in dust!

The two were just feeling happy when a familiar male voice suddenly rang out from behind them, "Miss Xue picked up some money. Why are you smiling so happily?"

Xue Youli and Banxia looked back and realized that Murong Che had come to the Imperial Garden without them noticing.

There was only Wang Defa with him, so they didn't notice anyone approaching.

Of course Xue Youli couldn't tell him that she had taken action to deal with Xue Qingyao.

She rolled her eyes, raised her hand and pointed in the direction of the lake, and said to the man with a smile, "Your Majesty, just now, this concubine and I saw a koi in the lake that had been fed very big and fat, so we named it Pig Carp. The more I thought about it, the more funny the name became. I thought the Imperial Garden was empty, so I laughed a little too loudly and disturbed Your Majesty. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."

"It's okay, I just happened to be passing by."

Murong Che has been busy with the palace examination recently and has not set foot in the harem for nearly half a month.

The palace examination ended yesterday and the examination papers were handed over to the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet for correction.

Before they presented the list of results to Murong Che, he had a rare moment of free time, so he went for a stroll in the Imperial Garden, and happened to see Xue Youli kicking Xue Qingyao and her servant.

Xue Qingyao had no way to complain to Murong Che because she had no witnesses.

But she had no idea that Murong Che was the eyewitness to this incident.

Murong Che knew that Xue Youli was brave, but he didn't expect that her method of revenge on Xue Qingyao was also unique.

However, this play made him in a good mood.

"I heard that the palace examination ended yesterday. Will the emperor be free to come to the harem next?"

Xue Youli had not forgotten the important business she had to attend to in the palace. She looked at Murong Che with eyes full of affection and said, "It has been a long time since I last saw the Emperor. I miss you so much."

[I'm good at using honey traps!]

Seeing her readily opening her mouth for sweet talk, Murong Che curled his lips and teased her deliberately, "It's hard to say. After the palace examination results come out, I still have to issue the gold medal list. I have a lot of things to do."

Xue Youli raised her eyelids and said affectionately, "Your Majesty works hard for state affairs every day. I cannot share your worries. I only hope that Your Majesty can take care of himself, eat and rest on time, and I will be at ease."

Seeing how dedicated she was in her acting, Murong Che reached out and pinched her cheek, "If I'm free tonight, I'll go to Lingyun Palace to have dinner with you."

Xue Youli was immediately surprised and said, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"

[Hehehe, finally got my chance, I must capture him tonight!]

However, before the two of them could chat for a few words, Wang Defa suddenly hurried forward and whispered a few words to Murong Che.

Murong Che's expression became increasingly serious. After Wang Defa finished speaking, he glanced deeply at Xue Youli and said, "I still have things to deal with. I'm afraid I won't have time to visit you tonight."

After saying that, he left quickly without waiting for Xue Youli to reply.

Xue Youli looked at the man's back as he walked away, feeling puzzled, and immediately asked what happened to the Book of Heavenly Secrets.

Tianjishu: [Host, someone reported your second brother for cheating in the palace examination.]

[Oh,... w-what? ]

After Xue Youli realized what was happening, her eyes widened in shock.
