In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband

All this fell into the eyes of Su Zhizhi who was standing by, but Su Zhizhi was also a landlubber and could not swim.

"Help! Someone come quickly! Is there anyone here?" Su Zhizhi shouted anxiously when he saw this.

However, this place is quite remote, so the Fifth Prince specially chose a place with few people to ask for clarification, but he did not expect that it would cause trouble at this time.

After a while, still no one agreed. Just when Su Zhizhi was desperate, Xie Chengjin appeared.

"Zhizhi, I'm here to chat with you." Xie Chengjin smiled and looked at Su Zhizhi.

When Su Zhizhi saw Xie Chengjin, her eyes lit up, as if she had seen a life-saving straw.

Seeing Su Zhizhi looking very panicked, this unusual behavior caught Xie Chengjin's attention.

"What's wrong?" Xie Chengjin asked hurriedly. It was rare to see Su Zhizhi so flustered.

"The fifth prince and Shen Wenjun fell in." Su Zhizhi said hurriedly, pointing to the pool beside her. After hearing Su Zhizhi's words, Xie Chengjin was quite shocked. He quickly took a look at the pool, and sure enough, the fifth prince and Shen Wenjun were both in the pool.

At this time, Xie Chengjin no longer cared about etiquette. He jumped up and jumped into the pool. It took him a lot of effort to rescue the fifth prince and Shen Wenjun.

After Shen Wenjun and the Fifth Prince were rescued, they both crawled on the grass in a very embarrassed manner, spitting out water. It took a long time for them to come to their senses.

"Thank you so much, sir." Seeing that Xie Chengjin still chose to save her, Shen Wenjun was very moved. After all, she had just spoken for Xu Chao, and now she needed Xie Chengjin to help her.

Xie Chengjin nodded. The Fifth Prince also recovered at this time and looked at Xie Chengjin and thanked him, "Thank you very much."

The fifth prince bowed and said to Xie Chengjin. After hearing what the fifth prince said, Xie Chengjin also bowed quickly.

"We just happened in a hurry, so I may have been a little rude. I hope the Fifth Prince will not be offended."

After Xie Chengjin finished speaking, the Fifth Prince quickly shook his head. He was lucky to be rescued. If it weren't for Xie Chengjin and Su Zhizhi today, he and Mr. Shen would have been in great danger.

"No, there was no need to worry about etiquette in such an urgent situation. You did the right thing."

The Fifth Prince's affirmation made Xie Chengjin feel relieved. There were many rules in the palace, especially since each prince had his own ideas. Xie Chengjin did not want to offend any force.

"You two should go ask the imperial physician to take a look first. Although you have come up now, the blow just now may have caused some damage to you two."

Su Zhizhi, who was standing aside, looked at the two of them and said, "After hearing what Su Zhizhi said, the two of them came back to their senses."

"In that case, I won't bother you for now. I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future. Please feel free to do as you please."

The fifth prince looked at the two of them, then left with Shen Wenjun.

"The Fifth Prince is being too formal."

Xie Chengjin looked at the Fifth Prince and said to him. Looking at the two of them walking away, Su Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief. If Xie Chengjin hadn't happened to come at this time, she wouldn't have known what to do.

Thinking of this, Su Zhizhi glanced at Xie Chengjin, who quickly patted Su Zhizhi's shoulder and said soothingly, "It's okay. Isn't everything resolved now?"

Su Zhizhi nodded and said, "Yes."

But she felt that this matter was definitely not over so easily. Someone had dared to murder the prince in the palace. This was a capital crime! It seemed that there would be another bloody storm in the palace.

The next day.

Xie Chengjin and Su Zhizhi came to visit the Fifth Prince. The Fifth Prince was very enthusiastic, but his expression was not very good. Seeing the Fifth Prince's frown, Su Zhizhi asked a question.

"Fifth Prince, what did the imperial physician say?"

Su Zhizhi asked with concern. After hearing Su Zhizhi's words, the Fifth Prince shook his head and sighed.

"Although I was rescued, I had a pre-existing leg condition that couldn't withstand the cold. This time, I fell into the water and the weather was cold, so my legs and feet became seriously ill."

The fifth prince pointed at his leg and said. After hearing what the fifth prince said, Su Zhizhi sighed. She really didn't expect that such a small fall into the water would cause such a big trouble.

"I must get to the bottom of this matter." The fifth prince gritted his teeth in hatred. It was the first time he met someone with such a courage. Not only the fifth prince, but the emperor in the hall was also very angry. He slammed the table, scaring everyone into silence.

At the same time, His Majesty also learned about this matter.

In the yurt, His Majesty was particularly angry.

"Who is so bold as to murder the prince?"

The emperor looked at everyone. After hearing what he said, no one dared to answer. The emperor was very angry at this time, and if he answered at this time, he would probably be scolded.

"Good-for-nothings, all good-for-nothings! Why is the imperial court spending so much money to support a bunch of useless people like you?"

The emperor was furious as he looked at the silent crowd, but still no one dared to answer.

"I'm telling you, this matter must be thoroughly investigated. If you can't handle it well, not only will you lose your position, but you'll also lose your heads."

After the emperor finished speaking, everyone nodded.

This matter also reached Su Zhizhi's ears. After hearing this, Su Zhizhi thought for a moment and came to a conclusion that the emperor only cared about the prince.

After all, the emperor didn't take the Wanpin incident so seriously. Therefore, Su Zhizhi clearly realized that her plan needed to be adjusted.

At this moment, the hunting feast has ended. The most tired people are naturally the chefs, including Su Zhizhi. They are all exhausted and have back pains. After all, they prepared a lot of delicious food for this hunting feast.

Therefore, this is a particularly suitable time to take leave.

"Chef Su, I would like to take two days off to rest and adjust."

Su Zhizhi found Chef Su. After hearing what Su Zhizhi said, Chef Su nodded and agreed without even thinking.

"That's right. You contributed a lot to this hunting feast and even received a commendation from His Majesty the Emperor. Thank you for your hard work."

Chef Su was well aware of Su Zhizhi's abilities. Su Zhizhi had contributed a lot to this hunting banquet, so naturally he would approve such a small matter as asking for leave.

Su Zhizhi was particularly happy to hear that her leave request was approved. She was indeed very tired these days, so she quickly returned home.

After returning to the mansion, Su Zhizhi was no longer as restrained as she was in the palace. She was quite relaxed and lay in a rocking chair at the door to bask in the sun. She happened to run into Xie Chengjin, who frowned and glanced at Su Zhizhi who was sitting in the rocking chair.

"You are really leisurely." Xie Chengjin couldn't help but teasing Su Zhizhi.

After hearing what Xie Chengjin said, Su Zhizhi couldn't help but retort, "Isn't it because I was tired from cooking a few days ago? Cooking is not an easy job, not to mention that I'm a woman, and it's all physical work."

Su Zhizhi rolled her eyes at Xie Chengjin. This guy hadn't put in as much effort as she had, so naturally he didn't know how tired she was. After hearing this, Xie Chengjin nodded thoughtfully.
