It was obvious that he had already covered himself with a lot of powder in the morning. Xia Lang replied in a dry tone, "I went to the Assistant Minister’s Residence for a banquet that day, and had some arguments with Liu Se and Nangong Waner. I'm fine, I'll be going down in a few days."

Qin Ruxue looked at Xia Lang Lang with a somewhat intimate expression, "I say that you are someone who understands how to tolerate things, and that you must review the situation. That Lord Assistant Minister of the Department is currently flourishing, it would be better if you did not provoke that Nangong Waner." With that, Qin Ruxue gently smiled and left, continuing to greet others.

Xia Lang looked at Qin Ruxue's leaving figure and pondered over his words repeatedly, then looked at the nearby Liu Se and Nangong Waner who were happily walking towards them. That Nangong Waner was extremely beautiful today, to the point that she was actually not much weaker than Qin Ruxue. She unconsciously touched the scar on her forehead, clenched her fists, and quietly retreated into the darkness.

Nangong Waner could also feel that after walking around in the circle of noble ladies with Liu Ruo, everyone was looking at him with a intriguing gaze, trying to curry favor with him. A little to please? Thinking about his recent reputation, it didn't seem like it was worth it for him to curry favor with him. Just as she was puzzled, Liu Ru pulled her along while greeting the surrounding people with a face full of smiles. She secretly explained to her in private, "Your father has been flourishing in the Imperial Court recently. We are the family elders' vassals, so naturally we have to curry favor with you when the wind blows."

After Nangong Waner heard Liu Zhi's words, he speechlessly held his forehead and could not help but be silently critical of himself, "Can't you live a little easier?"

The two of them did not really care about the banquet, and turned around in the Prime Minister's courtyard. In the distance, Liu Zhexiu and Nangong Waner also saw Xia Lang, and seeing that Xia Lang was hiding in the shadows, Liu Zhuo and Nangong Waner also intentionally went around to avoid the banquet. It would be better if they did not cause any trouble.

Liu Ru suddenly saw that the Prime Minister's Palace really had raised a great carp with a lake, and immediately shouted for Nangong Waner to take a look.

At this time, the people surrounded the lakeside in groups of twos and threes. Nangong Waner looked at the densely packed and very lively Golden Carp in the middle of the lake and was very happy. He called out to Ju Xiang to get some rations, causing him to lie on the lakeside railing and start feeding the fish.

He didn't know what kind of commotion had broken out by the lake, or in the middle of the crowd.

A young miss stepped on her skirt and fell down on a young maid beside her. The young maid pressed down on her and the young miss pressed down on her as well …

"Oh no, the Assistant Minister’s Residence has fallen into the lake!" It was unknown who shouted, but Ju Xiang and Liu Zhe anxiously went to look for him. Seeing that Nangong Waner was not by the lake, they quickly called for people.

"Putong ~ ~" The crowd didn't see clearly, it seemed like Young Master Xiao from the Minister of Industry's family had jumped into the lake to save them. A moment later, they saw another figure jump in, "Putong ~ ~" They thought they were seeing things, "That …" that is not the Prince Zhan? " Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. "Could it be that the rumors were true? Didn't the two of them separate after seeing each other? "

Everyone seemed to have temporarily forgotten what had happened in the lake. They all lowered their heads and whispered to each other.

Nangong Waner who was underwater naturally could not hear their discussion. When he fell down, he sighed silently in his heart, "Damn, could it be that I am really fated for death?"

Nangong Waner struggled for a few moments before fainting on the spot. Slowly, Nangong Waner floated down to the surface, and when she started to lose consciousness, she suddenly saw a flash of light in front of her, "I don't know if I'll die or die," just as she was thinking that, as Chu Xiuhan swam towards her, she actually felt that Chu Xiuhan was so warm that she immediately fainted with a smile.

Chu Xiuhan was startled when he saw Nangong Waner, and immediately swam over. Using his tongue to roll around, he pried open Nangong Waner's tightly-shut mouth. Chu Xiuhan carried Nangong Waner and quickly swam upstream, at the same time using his mouth to touch Nangong Waner's lips and air for him.

Although he knew what Prince Zhan was planning to do, he still could not help but scold in his heart, "Damn it, taking advantage of me again."

At the same time, Prince Zhan rushed out of the water with Nangong Waner in her arms. Everyone was dumbstruck when they saw Prince Zhan flying out of the water with Nangong Waner in his arms. When they finally regained their senses, there was no sign of and Prince Zhan at all by the lake.

Seeing that the sky was not completely dark, the Prince Zhan made a plan in his mind before he carried Nangong Waner and ran straight to the carriage of the Prince Zhan's Mansion. He shouted to Zi Ye who was still sweating outside the carriage, "Return to the manor quickly!"

Zi Ye was shocked by Prince Zhan's shout and quickly rode the carriage back to the manor. Zi Ye had no time to wonder, just now his mistress was in no mood to attend this banquet, and had instructed him to return to her house. His master, who was in the carriage just now, had suddenly carried Miss Nangong onto the carriage, although he did not know when she had left. Zi Ye was not proud at all. He had been born into a martial arts family since he was young, and was quite famous. Not many people in the Tian Sheng Empire could beat him in martial arts, but his master did not even notice that he was going back and forth.

Zi Ye, who was driving the carriage, couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. His master was truly unfathomable.

The Prince Zhan in the carriage, however, couldn't be bothered to care about all this. He familiarly undressed Nangong Waner's clothes, but discovered that … Nangong Waner did not wear the strange clothes from last time. With a gentle pull, all of the clothes were exposed to him. He lightly connected to Nangong Waner's pulse.

"Mistress, we have arrived at the palace!" Zi Ye reported respectfully from outside the carriage.

Chu Xiuhan took out one of his clean coats from the carriage and wrapped it around Nangong Waner who was still unconscious. Then, he carefully carried Nangong Waner's body and jumped out of the carriage, heading straight towards the courtyard Nangong Waner stayed at the Prince's Mansion.

When the servants of the manor saw the prince carrying a person who was walking back like the wind, they all bowed their heads in greeting and gave way to him respectfully. After all, Liu Hong was the maid manager, they also recognized that the person in his arms was Nangong Waner and hurriedly followed him into the courtyard. After quickly helping to tidy up the bed, the Prince Zhan stood to the side with Nangong Waner in his arms.

As luck would have it, Nangong Waner regained his consciousness in Prince Zhan's embrace. He slowly lifted his eyelids, blinked his eyes, looked at Prince Zhan's chin, and his expression turned a little cold. Then, he secretly rolled his eyes to see Prince Zhan wrapping himself in a jacket and Liu Hong tidying up the bed.

The corner of Prince Zhan's mouth hooked up as he looked at Nangong Waner's expression. Seeing Nangong Waner's face blushing inexplicably, as if he was shy, Prince Zhan pursed his lips and endured the smile. He was naturally very happy in his heart.

Liu Hong tidied up and prepared to bring Miss Nangong over, but Prince Zhan said indifferently, "Go down, bring a basin of hot water over." Prince Zhan then carefully put Nangong Waner on the bed as he silently pulled a chair and sat beside the bed with his eyes closed.

In the meantime, Nangong Waner closed her eyes and pretended to be tired, afraid that her eyelids would twitch, and she slowly opened her eyes. She saw that Prince Zhan was also leaning against the bed with her eyes closed, and felt moved, as though it was a lifetime ago.

Liu Hong carried some hot water, soaked a towel in it and was about to step forward when he was stopped by Prince Zhan, "Go down." Liu Hong looked at Nangong Waner who was lying on the bed, and was shocked. His expression did not change as he respectfully withdrew.

had been hesitating whether he should take the opportunity to wake up now, thanking Prince Zhan for saving his life. After saying hello, he walked back to Assistant Minister’s Residence. However, Prince Zhan did not give her the chance to do so. Waving her hand, Prince Zhan removed the robe that was originally wrapped around Nangong Waner, took a hot towel and began to wipe Nangong Waner's body.

Nangong Waner was fully aware that she was not wearing any clothes on her body, and did not have any plans to wake up anymore. He closed his eyes even more tightly, afraid that the Prince Zhan would notice that she was awake.
