Chapter 104 Ji Cheng (Part [-])
The closer you are to the Qingshui Bridge, the more people there are, and it's almost impossible to move an inch.

"It feels like all the people in the capital have come out, and they've all crowded to the Qingshui Bridge." De Wang Shizi said jokingly.

"Whoever told you to walk on Qingshui bridge is the most effective way to get rid of all kinds of diseases, but they are all crowded here." Mrs. Zhongqin laughed.

At this time, there was a sudden shout from the front, "It's not good, someone fell into the water."

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, someone fell into the water, save him quickly."

"Someone jumped down to save someone."

Jiang Changning said, "Something happened ahead."

"Every year, people are squeezed off the bridge and into the water," Mrs. Zhongqin said.

"It's hard to fall into the water in this cold day." Jiang Changning frowned.

"It's such a mess, we can't get through it." Princess Jingduan showed displeasure. "It's like this every year. Either this kind of thing happens or that kind of thing happens. How does the city defense army do things?"

Jiang Changning was a little puzzled, why was Princess Jingduan so angry?

Prince De's concubine and Mrs. Zhongqin knew that Uncle Shangde and Zheng Limin had failed in the battle for the command of the city defense army. Since then, Princess Jingduan has disliked the city defense army.

"Let's go back to Fuli Duck Soup first." Mrs. Zhao suggested uneasily.

There are too many people here, in case of a stampede, they will be in danger.

"Go back, go back quickly." Princess De Wang Shizi turned and walked back.

The street has become a mess, everyone is crowded, and people are heard screaming from time to time.

Some local ruffians like to take advantage of the chaos to do things.

Guarded by maidservants and guards, they managed to get away from Qingshui Bridge where the incident happened.

"There's no need to go back to Fu Li Ya Geng Restaurant. Let's have a cup of tea in this teahouse and take a rest. We'll go there when the matter at Qingshui Bridge is settled and the crowd disperses," Mrs. Zhongqin said.

"Alright." Princess Jingduan agreed.

Mrs. Zhongqin's suggestion was very reasonable, and Jiang Changning had no objection, but she accidentally saw Mrs. Zhongqin smiling sideways.

Jiang Changning felt strange, why were you snickering?
And what's so funny?

Princess Jingduan agreed to her proposal, so she smiled happily?

If so, she doesn't have to chuckle sideways.

Jiang Changning was not familiar with Mrs. Zhongqin, and didn't know her temperament. After a brief analysis, he couldn't analyze the reason, so he could only stop thinking about it.

The business of the tea house during the Lantern Festival was mediocre. They went to a private seat on the second floor, ordered a pot of scented tea and three dishes of dim sum.

While the women were drinking tea in the tea house, the men in the Fuli duck soup shop were shocked when they received the news that someone had fallen into the Qingshui Bridge.

The man who can accompany the main room to watch the lanterns, at least on the surface, loves the main room. After hearing the news, several people immediately came out of the shop and went to Qingshui bridge.

Halfway, I met a team of city defense troops.

The person escorted by the city defense army is Princess Kangren.

"Kang Ren, what happened?" King Jin asked eagerly.

"Uncle." Princess Kangren cried, "Mother Concubine, Mother Concubine drowned to death."

Rao Jin Wang was never surprised by things, but he was also shocked when he heard about it.

At this time, he saw the guards of Prince Jin's Mansion carrying the door panels.

King Jin stepped forward and lifted a corner of the sackcloth, revealing Qiao's pale face.

Qiao only took two maidservants and four guards with her when she went out, and when she fell into the water, she had only one maidservant and two guards by her side, which also made it impossible to ask for help.

"Kang Ren, don't cry, Chang Youzhong, you accompany the princess back to the mansion." King Jin patted the shoulder of Princess Kangren.

He couldn't go back together, he had to go find Jiang Changning.

However, he hurried to Qingshui Bridge and found that it was not easy to find Jiang Changning, there were too many people.

Although there has just been a drowning incident, there are still many women who come to Qingshui bridge to get rid of all kinds of diseases.

The figure is shaking, the lights are blurred, where can I find someone?
King Jin was having a headache because he couldn't find Jiang Changning, when he heard Jiang Changning's voice, "My lord."

"Princess, where have you been?" When King Jin came all the way, he was really afraid that the person who fell into the water was Jiang Changning.

He really wanted to spend a lifetime with Jiang Changning for a long time.

"Someone fell into the water here just now and was very flustered. We were worried that we would be trampled, so we walked back and went to the teahouse to have a cup of tea. We will come back when things here calm down." Jiang Changning looked at Prince Jin in surprise, "My lord , is something wrong?"

"My sister-in-law drowned and died." King Jin said.

"How is it possible!" Jiang Changning and Mrs. Zhongqin exclaimed in unison.

"Princess, we have to go back to the mansion to deal with this matter." King Jin said calmly.

"Okay, okay." Jiang Changning left with King Jin with a pale face.

"Prince Jin's mansion is going to have a funeral too." Prince De's concubine sighed.

"Who would have thought that such a tragedy would happen during the Lantern Festival?" said Princess Jingduan.

After being silent for a while, Mrs. Zhao asked timidly, "Are we still suffering from all kinds of diseases?"

"Why don't you go? When you come to the Qingshui Bridge, of course you have to walk all kinds of diseases." Princess Jingduan raised her legs and walked on the bridge, followed by Princess De and Mrs. Zhao.

Mrs. Zhongqin didn't know what she was thinking, she just stood there.

"Mrs. Jiao, let's go." Mrs. Zhao turned her head puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Mrs. Zhongqin twitched her lips, "When I was thinking about coming here, I also met Concubine Mourning. After such a dazzling effort, I was gone."

"Life is impermanent." Concubine De and Shi Zifei sighed.

"There are no young or old on the road to Huangquan, okay, don't talk about it anymore, we will suffer from all kinds of diseases." Princess Jingduan said unhappily.

During the big festival, it is already very bad luck to encounter someone drowning, so I keep talking about it.

Under the forceful stop of Princess Jingduan, no one mentioned Qiao's death anymore, and she walked to the bridge in silence.

On the other side, Jiang Changning, who was returning home with the King of Jin, looked at the King of Jin all the way, hesitating to speak.

King Jin held Jiang Changning's hand and found it was cold, "Don't be afraid, it's fine."

Jiang Changning looked at him, opened his mouth, said nothing, and lowered his head.

"Ning Ning, just say what you want to say." King Jin said softly.

Jiang Changning raised his head and squeezed out a smile, "I have nothing to say, I just missed it."

King Jin pondered for a moment, "Ningning thought I arranged someone to do this?"

"You won't. Although my sister-in-law acted improperly, she is the widow of my elder brother after all. For the sake of my elder brother, you will only teach her a lesson, and you will not kill her."

"Is this turning the corner?" King Jin asked with a smile on his lips.

"I met my sister-in-law before I went out. She was a living person, and suddenly disappeared like this. I would be scared and panicked. This is normal. You, you are not allowed to laugh at me." Jiang Changning said the last sentence, in a coquettish tone out.

"I'm not making fun of you." King Jin stretched out his hand and pulled him into his arms.

Jiang Changning leaned in his arms, closed his eyes, and hid the joy in them.

Recalling the performance of Queen Jin, Jiang Changning felt that his performance was good, and there should be no suspicious points. Oscar owed her a little golden man.
