Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce
Chapter 717 The Childhood Sweetheart Used as a Shield (27)
Hawthorn wine has a rich fruity aroma, a refreshing taste, and a sweet and sour flavor that tantalizes the taste buds.
Mu Zhou couldn't resist pouring another cup.
After a few drinks, Wang Chunling opened up completely, rambling on about all sorts of interesting things.
Mu Zhou found it interesting and listened with great focus.
She tilted her head slightly, propped her cheek with one hand, and looked straight at Wang Chunling.
Seeing how attentive her audience was, Wang Chunling spoke with even more enthusiasm.
However, this positive atmosphere was quickly shattered.
A few noises came from outside the ship.
Fenyu went out to look, and quickly returned to Muzhou, saying:
“Miss, Miss Li Ying’er is outside. She insists that our boat rammed her boat.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Chunling slammed her hand on the table in anger:
"She's spouting nonsense! Our boat didn't even rock, how could it have hit anyone?"
She wasn't that drunk; how could she not tell if the boat had collided with someone?
This is clearly Li Ying'er deliberately picking a fight.
Mu Zhou patted her hand, comforting her:
"Ignore her, she can't get in anyway, let's continue."
The guards sent by Su Youbai followed closely, guarding outside. Mu Zhou was naturally not afraid of Li Ying'er doing anything.
I thought she would leave soon, but the noise actually got even louder.
I could vaguely hear someone fall into the water.
Mu Zhou frowned.
Her good mood was ruined, and although her expression remained indifferent, she no longer smiled.
"Let's go out and have some fresh air."
Mu Zhou and Wang Chunling went out together.
As soon as the two appeared, Li Ying'er spotted Mu Zhou with her sharp eyes, and she instantly became excited:
"Mu Zhou, are you insane? How dare you let your lackey try to push me into the water? Are you out of your mind?"
Mu Zhou glanced at a little maid who was splashing around in the water and recognized her as Li Ying'er's person.
She probably understood the situation without needing an explanation.
It was simply that Li Ying'er insisted on barging in, and the guards wouldn't let them in. During the scuffle, Li Ying'er's maid fell into the water.
Mu Zhou showed no sign of panic. She lazily raised her hand, tucking a stray strand of hair, ruffled by the spring breeze, behind her ear, and said softly:
"Instead of making a scene here, Miss Li would be better off quickly having someone rescue her maid."
Seeing that Mu Zhou dared to act arrogantly towards her now that she had been made Empress, no longer as weak and incompetent as before, and so disregarding her, Li Ying'er was filled with hatred.
"What are you being so arrogant about?! Do you think you can sit on the throne as Empress? I am the Empress Dowager's niece, how dare you be so disrespectful to me?"
After a few glasses of fruit wine, Mu Zhou felt a little dizzy from the wind. She rubbed her temples with her fingertips, somewhat impatient with Li Ying'er's accusations.
"If Miss Li is dissatisfied with this marriage, then she can go to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. I will not stop her."
"you……"
Just as Li Ying'er was about to argue, she remembered the purpose of today's event and had no choice but to send her own people to retrieve the maid.
Seeing her personal maid trembling, she looked heartbroken and said to Mu Zhou with righteous indignation:
"It was clearly your boat that collided with mine, yet you, relying on your status as the future empress, refuse to admit it and even tried to push me into the river. If it weren't for my maid protecting me, I would be the one falling into the water right now. I want to see if the emperor will rescind his decree if he finds out about this!"
In Li Ying'er's eyes, Su Youbai was an emperor who upheld righteousness and possessed godlike dignity.
If he knew that Mu Zhou had dared to be arrogant and bully others after only receiving her title, he would surely be greatly disappointed in her and take the opportunity to break off the engagement.
Just as she was about to make a scene and demand that Mu Zhou go with her to see the Emperor, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure on the shore.
God helps me!
Li Ying'er's eyes darted around, and a plan quickly came to mind.
Mu Zhou was surrounded by guards, making it difficult for Li Ying'er to get close. So she gestured to the maid beside her with her eyes.
The maid realized what was happening and rushed forward, seemingly to stand up for her mistress.
"You're not allowed to bully our young lady..."
The two guards instinctively tried to stop them.
Seizing the opportunity, Li Ying'er rushed to Mu Zhou's side and grabbed her hand, her voice filled with sorrow:
"Take your anger out on me, don't hurt my maid. She grew up with me. I know you're unhappy that the Empress Dowager once intended for me to be your cousin's empress. If you have any grievances, take them out on me, don't... ah..."
Li Ying'er felt a strong kick to her side, and the intense pain caused her to involuntarily flip over the railing and fall down.
She angrily turned her head sharply, wanting to see which bitch dared to kick him.
But when she saw who it was, fear made her eyes widen and her voice get stuck in her throat.
emperor……
How could it be the Emperor?
After catching a glimpse of the Emperor out of the corner of her eye, she planned to take advantage of the chaos to create the illusion that Mu Zhou had deliberately pushed her into the water.
Let the emperor witness this scene with his own eyes.
But she never expected that before she could even jump into the water, she would be kicked into the water by the emperor.
why?
With a "plop," Li Ying'er was submerged in water.
Even though she could swim, the icy water made her feel extremely suffocated.
What's more, the emperor's sinister eyes before she entered the water terrified her, causing her to choke on several mouthfuls of water.
On the boat, Mu Zhou held onto the railing with one hand and was supported by Fen Yu with the other. Her face was somewhat blank, and the faint pink on her cheeks had not yet faded. It seemed that she had not yet reacted.
"emperor……"
She murmured to herself, then remembered to bow.
By this time, they were all kneeling on the ground.
Su Youbai grabbed her forearm to prevent her from bowing, then asked in a deep voice:
"Are you injured anywhere?"
As soon as he arrived, he saw that annoying woman grabbing his wrist and talking nonsense. The glaring scene made him kick her off the boat without thinking.
Mu Zhou blinked and obediently shook his head:
"I am fine."
She heard the splashing sounds of water nearby, took a slight breath, and leaned over to look into the water:
"Your Majesty, she..."
"Be careful."
Before Mu Zhou could speak, Su Youbai put his arm around her shoulder and led her away.
His voice carried a slight reproach:
"Danger! Don't lean out."
“…Oh, but Miss Li, she…”
Su Youbai's tone was cool:
"She looks like she needs to clear her head, just leave her alone."
He then coldly ordered the guards to keep an eye on her and allow her to remain sober for an hour before she was allowed to come up.
A faint aroma of fruit wine wafted over. Su Youbai glanced down at Mu Zhou, whose cheeks were rosy, and said softly, "Have you been drinking?"
Mu Zhou nodded: "A little bit."
Su Youbai slowed his pace, afraid of making Mu Zhou feel dizzy or uncomfortable.
Wang Chunling, who was following behind the two, was not quite clear-headed at the moment.
She didn't even realize how things had turned out this way.
Li Ying'er suddenly started acting unreasonably, even saying that Mu Zhou was jealous of her. Then the Emperor suddenly appeared and kicked Li Ying'er into the river.
She gently led Mu Zhou into the cabin.
So... should she go in with him?
Without thinking it through, Wang Chunling followed him inside.
At this moment, Li Ying'er was struggling to get onto the boat in the water, but the guards, having received orders, pushed her back down just as she was about to climb onto their boat.
Li Ying'er's tears mingled with the river water, and she was filled with regret.
