Before the crowd could react, they only saw the water surface surging up countless streams of crystalline splashes, which shot high into the sky, then fell down horizontally, then spouted out again. This time, when the splash reached the sky, they only heard a few explosions, and a stream of colored light and a column of water merged together, dyeing the water column in a brilliant color.
"Hoh, what is this? How fresh and interesting. " Her Majesty smiled and took a few steps forward, watching curiously.
"This is called Suizhu, an arcane master in this nephew's residence accidentally obtained it while concocting pills. When it's thrown into the water, it explodes. This nephew asked them to improve a few times before they became this Suizhu." King Qi smiled, clasped his hands behind his back, and looked up at the colourful column of water in the sky.
"Your thoughts are all on this." Her Majesty rebuked.
"Esteemed Empress Dowager, please don't underestimate this. Suizhu has another source of fun …" He leaned close to the empress dowager's ear and whispered a few words into her ear. The empress dowager's face was suddenly filled with surprise as she whispered, "Really?"
"Her Majesty can try." King Qi smiled mysteriously.
Her Majesty's golden nails tapped on the back of his hand and she whispered, "You're the devil."
"Heh, is the empress dowager praising me or criticizing me?" King Qi smiled and clapped again.
The water droplets poured onto the shore, causing the clothes of the woman standing in front to get wet. She started to scream and retreat, but someone screamed out first and the scene immediately became chaotic. You're stepping on my feet, I'm bumping into your people, she's holding onto her hair …
Yu Yan was originally standing at the back of the crowd, but when she saw chaos, he immediately retreated. Someone suddenly pushed behind her, causing him to be unable to retract her leg, and knocked into the woman in front of him. She screamed out and grabbed her arm, pulling her along as she fell into the water.
"Quick, quickly fish it up." Her Majesty quickly sent men into the water.
The water in the pool was especially cold, and the beads floated around her, the water mist was too thick, making it difficult to see anything. Yu Yan struggled for a few moments, wanting to float up, but the woman carried her like she had gone mad, as she screamed miserably, she dragged her into the water. She was unable to break free, and was dragged around by the woman until she choked a few times.
A few bangs sounded as someone swam over. Yu Yan vaguely saw someone's palm strike onto the girl's arm, causing her to let go. The palm grabbed her waist, and pulled her out of the water.
With a splashing sound, she held onto the man's shoulder, coughing and gasping for breath.
So the man held her by the waist and pulled her to the bank, and when she regained her senses, she saw that the man covered in water was King Qi!
"Hurry, take Chi Wang and Yu Yan to change." The empress dowager grabbed Senior Servant Gui's hand and ordered loudly.
She turned her head to look, only to see that there were several women surrounding her from the previous location. Ye Sujian and Qiu Xuanling were both there, Qiu Xuanling had a face full of worry while Ye Sujian had a cold and mocking smile on her face.
Who pushed her?
He took off his wet clothes in the empress dowager's side hall and wrapped them in a quilt, waiting for the palace maids to come and change their clothes. Laughter came from outside, she jumped off the bed, walked to the window and peeked outside. Behind the Secret Flower Tree, there were shadows, and several tall figures entered the courtyard. It was Yu Tianqi, Yulixiao and the rest of the court!
She hid by the window and watched for a while, only to hear someone laughing loudly: "King Xiao is indeed King Xiao, and is still as gallant and gallant as before. I wonder how many of your beauties you favor now?"
This was a mockery, who could be so fearless?
She didn't dare to open the window and look through the gap in the window. The person who spoke was also wearing a royal robe, and it seemed like the princes from the distant fiefdom had returned. She had seen princes and young masters before, so she didn't know who they were.
"What? Tenth Brother is very interested in this king's bed?" The King Xiao said hoarsely, without a trace of anger or joy. He was calm like water, without any ripples.
Tenth brother, is the Nie King! Yuxi Da was at most twenty years old this year, and was bestowed the title of the King of Nie City two years ago.
"Don't be angry, second brother. I'm just curious." The Nie King laughed loudly.
At this moment, they heard the sound of people fighting against each other again.
"About the matter on the bed, have you not studied it?" For men and women to be together, women should serve men. Could it be that Tenth Brother normally serves women? "
"Grand Marshal Hu, what do you mean?" Nie Wang immediately reprimanded.
"Enough, this is the empress dowager's palace. How is it proper?" Yu Tianqi reprimanded them, and then everyone quieted down and followed him to the banquet location.
Just as Yu Yan was enjoying the scene, a male voice suddenly came out from behind him.
"Yu Yan, you changed your clothes."
She turned her head sharply and saw King Qi holding his clothes and smiling at her.
"How dare you! How can you come in? "Get out."
Startled, she pulled the quilt up to her neck, only exposing her head and glaring at him.
"I'm sorry, I just wanted to see the birthmark on your forehead, so I presumptuously came over." He smiled and walked slowly toward her.
"What does my birthmark have to do with you? Get out! Otherwise, I'll call someone over. " Yu Yan pressed her entire body against the wall, looking at the bold man in anger.
"Did you have this birthmark when you were born?" Sulanqi ignored her, staring at her forehead.
That half red patch was like a butterfly withdrawing half of its wings. Normally, she would use her hair to conceal it, but the moment her hair got wet, it revealed her shiny forehead and half of her butterfly wing.
"It has nothing to do with you. Quickly leave." Seeing that he was getting closer, Yu Yan panicked, and pulled the blanket even further, pulling the thick blanket closer to the edge of the bed.
"Don't be afraid Miss Yu Yan, I won't hurt you, I just want to see this birthmark, there is no harm in it." Not only did Sulanqi not leave, she even boldly reached out and touched her forehead.
Yu Yan's hand quickly came out from the blanket and struck the back of it with a pa sound. Then, she quickly pulled the blanket back and ran to the side of the bed, quickly putting down the silk handkerchief and said: "Hurry, let's go, I'm calling for people. Come, people come …."
She really screamed!
The sound of footsteps came from outside the room. Sulanqi raised her eyebrows, moved his body, and hid behind the door.
Seeing that he was so daring, not only did he not run away, she even hid here and did not leave. Yu Yan held her beating heart, and did not dare to let anyone in, if she saw Sulanqi, the empress dowager would blame this on her, and even if she jumped into the Yellow River, she would not be able to wash away her guilt.
Shui Bo's eyes widened, biting his red lips, and said hatefully: "Don't come in, it's fine."
The palace maid's footsteps stopped at the door, softly answering "Yes" before retreating.
"Miss Yu Yan, tell me, your birthmark …"
He was about to approach again, but the commotion outside was getting louder.
"Greetings, your Highness King Xiao." The palace maids greeted them in unison, and the sound of wheels grinding across the white marble floor gradually grew louder.
Yu Yan panicked. She opened the tent and waved her hands towards Sulanqi as if she was shooing away flies, "Hurry up and go, if you don't want to move your head, quickly go."
Sulanqi looked at her deeply, then leaped up onto the beam beam.
Yu Yan's heart jumped to her throat. As she looked around, the door was pushed open and the palace servants carried Yulixiao and his wheelchair in. Chen Yao followed behind and looked around the room.
The two of them got closer. Chen Yao looked at the clean clothes scattered on the ground, picked them up and held them out to her, then whispered: "I saw someone push you a bit, and I couldn't even see who it was. Yu Yan, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Yu Yan shook her head.
"Why aren't you changing?" Yulixiao stared at her and asked softly.
"Change right away."
Yu Yan grabbed her clothes and covered herself with the blanket, and then quietly looked up at the beams. She was startled, and a corner of the blue robe was hanging down, if he saw it, she would definitely be torn apart!
"This King is going back. Change your clothes quickly. You can go back with This King." Yulixiao urged impatiently, as if he hated the bustle of the palace to the extreme.
Chen Yao bent down, and lightly tapped him on the shoulder a few times, and said softly: "Why are you angry, your old disease has recurred, you can't be angry."
Yulixiao pursed his lips, and turned to stab the couch.
Yu Yan hid inside and only wore it after a long time. His hair was too long and too wet, it was really a hindrance.
"Yu Yan, if you don't hurry up, you can go back by yourself."
Yulixiao said coldly, he waved his hand and Chen Yao pushed him out.
"Alright, alright."
Yu Yan hurriedly opened the embroidered tent and tied up her skirt around her waist. Her feet on the ground, previously, Sulanqi did not bring her new shoes in, but her wet clothes were taken away again, and now, she could only step on the floor, with her bare feet, a cold feeling welled up from the bottom of her heart.
Yulixiao looked at her feet and extended his hand towards her. She quickly took his hand and wrapped his hand with hers, pulling her into his lap. He sat with his wide sleeves covering his body and pulled her into his embrace.
Yu Yan's breathing became shallow, and her hand rested on his shoulder. Ren Gong slaves entered, lifted the wheelchair out of the high doorstep and into the courtyard.
Senior Servant Gui was waiting in front. When she saw the three of them come out, she quickly bowed and said, "Prince, the empress dowager's inviting you over."
"This King's old ailments are painful, so I need to return to my residence to rest." Yulixiao said coldly, without even looking at her, he was pushed straight ahead.
Senior Servant Gui chased after him a few steps before stopping in front of the wheelchair. She said with a flattering smile, "Your highness should go. The empress dowager personally made plum wine and opened the vat. This is what the empress dowager wants. Your highness will have good fortune once you drink it …"
It was only after a long while did she finally open her eyes wide and look forward. She only saw that there were two guards dressed in dark blue clothes standing in front of Yulixiao, staring coldly at her. One of them raised his hand, pointed at her and said:
"No one is allowed to approach the prince. If you dare to offend him again, die."
Senior Servant Gui was the empress dowager's trusted aide. Yu Tianqi had given her some face, but how could she have been slapped by a guard in public? She was angry, embarrassed, afraid, and ashamed.
The wheelchair passed in front of her and the sound faded away. Only then did she raise her head and look over, gritting her teeth hatefully. She cursed in an extremely low voice, "Damned paralytic, I'll die again sooner or later."
Just as she finished cursing, she saw Chen Yao hurrying over, she quickly lowered her head again, not daring to look up.
Chen Yao only came to the courtyard and bent down to pick up a earring that had fallen on the ground, then she turned and left. When she went out, he inadvertently looked at the room that Yu Yan had stayed in just now, and saw Sulanqi slowly walking out. Chen Yao's eyes suddenly widened, he hurriedly turned her head and chased after him.
"Prince, why are you here?" Seeing King QI, Senior Gui Yun was also dumbfounded.
Sulanqi glanced at her, then raised his eyes and looked towards the direction where Yulixiao's group was heading to. His black eyes gradually lit up with a strange luster, which was called — excitement.
