502 I’ll Help You (3)
Princess Ming An’s maids panicked and went to look for bamboo poles to save her. However, the guards who could swim were all men. If they touched Princess Ming An’s body, their heads would probably be chopped off the next day, and no one dared to come forward to save her. Moreover… The place where Princess Ming An fell into the water was really too far.
Shen Miao was pushed into the pond, so she wasn’t far from the edge of the pond, but Princess Ming An fell into the middle of the pond out of the blue. Even a bamboo pole might not be long enough to reach her.
Looking at her comical face, Shen Miao actually found it a little funny. However, now was not the time to watch a show in the water. While everyone was flustered, she swam leisurely towards the pond.
When she swam to the edge of the pond, Jingzhe and Gu Yu were about to pull her up in panic when she heard an angry shout. “What’s going on?”
Two men walked in from outside the garden. One of them was dressed in golden clothes and had a jade crown on his head. His expression was extremely dark, ruining his handsome appearance. The other person was wearing a golden purple robe and a black cloak. Half of his face was covered by a silver mask, but it still couldn’t cover his handsome face. He followed Huangfu Hao over unhurriedly.
“Your Highness, the princess fell into the water!” The servants quickly reported. Looking at the flustered servants, Huangfu Hao took a deep breath and subconsciously looked at Prince Rui beside him. However, Prince Rui was wearing a mask, and his lips were slightly curled under the mask. No one could tell what he was thinking at this moment.
He shouted at the guard behind him, “Go, what are you waiting for?”
The guard’s expression froze. He flew into the pond and immediately pulled the wet Princess Ming An to the shore.
Princess Ming An choked on a lot of water. The first thing she did when she came ashore was to scream and point at Shen Miao. “This b*tch pushed me into the water. Brother Crown Prince, kill her for me!”
Princess Ming An was so flustered and exasperated that she didn’t watch her language. Huangfu Hao was shocked and warned her. “Ming An!”
Princess Ming An was stunned. Only then did she see Prince Rui standing beside Huangfu Hao. She was taken aback, and then her face turned red with anger. If there was a hole in the ground, Princess Ming An would want to crawl into it. Everything that she suffered today was because of Shen Miao.
Jingzhe couldn’t help but retort on Shen Miao’s behalf, “Princess, what you said makes no sense. My Miss was the one who fell into the water first. How could she have pushed you into the pond? My Miss is not a god. How can she be so capable?”
“Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like that?” Princess Ming An smiled instead of being angry. “Do you mean that I’m slandering Shen Miao? Guards! Arrest this b*tch who is talking nonsense!”
Shen Miao smiled coldly and shielded Jingzhe behind her. She said, “Your Highness, you are from the State of Qin, and Jingzhe is my maid. This is Ming Qi. Since when can the people from the State of Qin do whatever they want in Ming Qi?”
“How dare you!” Princess Ming An shouted.
“I don’t think I’m being unreasonable.” Shen Miao’s aura was not weak at all. She was no longer the Empress Shen who needed to endure humiliation in the State of Qin. Moreover, if she could not even protect a maid, she might as well die.
