Chapter 45 Falling into the Water!
Du Yue turned around and wrote a note and handed it to the maid who came to deliver the news, "Give this to my brother."

The servant girl took the note, knelt down to give a blessing, and left immediately.

In the small courtyard where Qin Shuhuang changed clothes, Xu Siyuan and Nanny Sun were waiting outside. Shilan served Xu Siyuan tea, and Xu Siyuan had just taken a sip when he suddenly heard a woman calling for help from outside the courtyard.

The few people guarding the outside frowned.

Xu Siyuan came from a family of military commanders and was simple and kind-hearted. When he heard the woman calling for help, her voice was so close, he immediately stood up and rushed out.

Nanny Sun next to her immediately asked her maid to follow him when she saw this. Shilan knew that Qin Shuhuang asked her to stay outside just to watch Xu Siyuan. Seeing Xu Siyuan running out, she hurriedly followed.

Qin Shuhuang, who was changing clothes inside, vaguely heard the movement outside, and hurriedly said to Ruihe beside her, "Go out and see what happened."

Ruihe agreed and quickly went out to inquire.

A bad premonition rose in Qin Shuhuang's heart, she didn't have time to put on the jewelry, she put on a big cloak and went out of the inner room, just when Ruihe came back in a hurry.

Ruihe's face was anxious, seeing Qin Shuhuang immediately said: "Your Highness, Miss Xue Ruzhen fell into the water outside the courtyard. Miss Xu heard the cry for help and jumped into the water to save her. There is already chaos outside."

what!
Qin Shuhuang's face turned cold. She had taken all precautions, but she still let someone succeed in the dark!

Qin Shuhuang walked quickly outside the hospital, with Ruihe following him.

Qin Shuhuang spoke very quickly, "Notify Xuancang, let him surround the garden with his personal guards, and don't let any man enter the backyard garden!"

Ruihe noticed the seriousness in his master's words and immediately agreed, personally going to inform Xuan Cang who was guarding the garden gate with his men.

As soon as Ruihe left, Nanny Sun followed her. She didn't expect such a thing to happen at today's banquet. She comforted Qin Shuhuang, "Don't worry, Your Highness. The old servant has already informed Mrs. Ma. Something happened."

Qin Shuhuang didn't seem to hear what Nanny Sun said, and ran out of the courtyard quickly.

Although this nanny Sun was loyal, she was a little dim-sighted. Something happened to the young lady who came to the banquet in the Dufu Courtyard. She first ensured that the accidental daughter was fine instead of informing Mrs. Ma.

No matter how capable and good Mrs. Ma is, by the time she arrives, it will be too late!
The courtyard is adjacent to the small garden lake. After leaving the courtyard, there is a promenade beside the small garden lake. At a glance, you can see Xue Ruzhen struggling in pain after falling into the water.

None of the maids and wives who came nearby knew how to swim, so they could only watch from the sidelines. Some smart ones had already found long bamboo poles and sticks and stretched them as far into the lake as possible.

Standing on the corridor, I could only see Xu Siyuan jumping into the lake and swimming hard in the direction of Xue Ruzhen.

Shilan followed Xu Siyuan to the corridor and saw Xu Siyuan jumping into the lake without hesitation to save others. She was a step too late even if she wanted to.

In desperation, she also wanted to jump into the lake.

Just as he was about to jump, his arm was suddenly pulled hard by a slender, snow-white hand.

Looking back in panic, I saw the solemn and serious face of His Highness the Eldest Princess, "Your Highness! Miss Xu jumped into the lake to save someone!"

"Don't panic! You don't know how to swim, why don't you go down and seek death at this time!" Qin Shuhuang's voice was extremely calm, like a needle for calming the sea, calming down the flustered Shilan in an instant.

"Then this slave girl is going to find someone to save her!"

With that said, Shilan has already left quickly.

Qin Shuhuang didn't stop her and let her do whatever she wanted.

But where can I find someone at this time?

The daughters of noble families all grew up pampered, and the capital city was inland. These senior officials from aristocratic families did not regard learning how to swim as a thing at all, let alone the daughters of the family, so it was inconvenient to teach them how to swim.

Most of the maids and women can't swim. Even if there are a few who can swim, they are half-baked. die.

So when Shilan went looking for someone at this time, she couldn't find a suitable one in a short time, unless a man who knew water.

But here are all Yunying's unmarried noble daughters, even if Du Qinglin is here, it is not suitable.

Not long after Shilan walked out, she suddenly heard the sound of "plop" falling into the water. She subconsciously turned her head and saw Qin Shuhuang throwing down her cloak and jumping into the icy lake.

Shi Lan was shocked, and couldn't help shouting, "Your Highness!"

Nanny Sun, who was following Qin Shuhuang, was startled by Shilan's voice, and when she came to her senses, Nanny Sun was sure that it was Qin Shuhuang who jumped into the lake just now. In an instant, her whole body was stiff and cold. Dare to imagine what happened to the eldest princess, what will happen to her, and what will happen to Rongguo Duke's mansion.

Grandma Sun was really panicking now. She said in horror: "Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, has fallen into the water, please save her!"

She wanted to shout again, but was stopped by Shilan.

At such a critical time, Xu Shi was infected by Qin Shuhuang before, but Shilan became calm instead.

She took Nanny Sun's arm and asked Nanny Sun to look at Qin Shuhuang in the lake, "Don't worry, Nanny, look into the water, don't panic and disturb His Highness to save people!"

Grandma Sun froze and moved her gaze to the lake. She saw Qin Shuhuang swimming quickly in the direction of Xue Ruzhen. Her water quality was not inferior to that of the man.

Grandma Sun murmured in shock, "Your Highness, the eldest princess, knows how to swim?"

Shilan pursed her lips and said nothing, just nodded.

In fact, in the years that the four maids have been with Qin Shuhuang, they have never seen Qin Shuhuang floating in the water.

Today is also the first time they know that His Highness can swim, and his water skills are not bad.

But there is no need to tell Nanny Sun about these.

When Ruihe found Qin Shuhuang's personal guard, the personal guard told her that Commander Xuancang had already taken people to the garden and guarded the garden of the other courtyard, and would not let any man approach the garden.

Hearing this news, Ruihe heaved a long sigh of relief, and hurried to the garden to look for Qin Shuhuang.

Du Xi and Chang Sui guarded at the northeast corner of the garden. Shortly after Xue Ruzhen fell into the water, he saw Xu Siyuan running out of the small courtyard quickly, and then jumped into the lake without hesitation to save others.

Chang was nearby and reminded, "Master, Miss Xu jumped into the lake, now?"

Du Xi squinted his eyes and stared at the slender figure struggling to swim forward in the water, while raising the corners of his mouth slightly, "No hurry, just wait."

Ms. Xu just fell into the water, and she hasn't gotten close to Xue Ruzhen yet. If he goes down at this time, what if he is misunderstood as saving Xue Ruzhen?
Xu Siyuan tried his best to swim in the direction of Xue Ruzhen.

But before she got close to Xue Ruzhen, she felt that she had lost half of her strength.

Rescuing someone in a cold lake is nothing like swimming in a hot spring pool at home!
The Xu family comes from a family of military generals, and Xu Siyuan is the beloved daughter of the family. Regardless of whether they are male or female, the Xu family must learn to float.

But the daughter in the family is more pampered than the man, and there is a difference. The man learned how to float in the cold pool water, but the daughter's family taught it to float in the hot spring pool by a special mother-in-law.

There is a world of difference between hot spring pools and lake pools.

Moreover, it was already early autumn, and the lake was so cold that it was easier to consume one's physical strength.

Xu Siyuan regretted it for a moment, but since he had jumped down, he still swam towards Xue Ruzhen with all his strength.
