"I think I may know who she is!"

The daughter of the royal family was thoughtful and told her guess to the little sisters.

"She should be the daughter of a southern general who just came to Beijing. Her name seems to be Ji Mingxin!"

Her father was a royal censor and would occasionally talk about court affairs at home. She had heard about it a few days ago.

"It turns out she is the daughter of a military commander. No wonder she behaves..."

There was a little sister who hesitated to speak, and Song Lanshu looked at her displeased.

Looking at the newly borrowed oar, she couldn't help but think of the girl's chic appearance, and she immediately justified her name without hesitation.

"I think she is very unique. Although she is a little unruly, she still gives people a sense of open-mindedness and freedom. She looks much more carefree than us!"

Who doesn’t want to be the most comfortable person?

It's just that they can't turn a blind eye to the eyes and ridicule of the world, so they only envy and admire people like Ji Mingxin even more.

While she was feeling melancholy, Song Lanxi vaguely heard her elder brother's gentle voice. She turned around in confusion, suspecting that it was her imagination.

"Shu'er!" the visitor called softly again.

This time the overlapping lotus leaves were lifted a little, revealing the boat heading towards them.

The young man wearing an indigo brocade robe on the boat is surprisingly his eldest brother Song Lanzhang!

"Brother? Why are you here?"

Song Lanshu was surprised. The eldest brother seemed to be looking for her. What happened?

The distance between the two boats gradually narrowed, and Song Lanshu was not the only one on board the ladies. Song Lanzhang did not get too close for the sake of male and female defense.

"I'm here to find you!"

Song Lanzhang was really afraid of hearing any bad news about her. He couldn't wait for his servants to take action, so he boarded the ship to search for her.

"After returning to shore, a noble lady said that she heard your exclamations. I was at my mother's side to say hello, so I stopped by to look for you."

As for how worried, scared and anxious he and his mother were after hearing the news, there is no need to tell her.

He could have guessed it even if he didn't tell Song Lanshu, and he felt very guilty.

"Nothing happened to us. It was just that the oar accidentally fell into the water. In panic, we lost our composure for a moment."

Thinking of Ji Mingxin who was still deep in the lotus flower, Song Lanshu wanted to go back to pick her up after seeing her elder brother.

"After we lost the oar, it was Miss Ji who lent her oar. Now she is staying where she is. Why don't I go back and give the oar back to her!"

"No, mother and ladies are waiting for you. You go ashore first, and I'll deliver the oars."

Song Lanzhang just wanted his second sister to come ashore as soon as possible.

In this case, Song Lanshu also wanted to go back as soon as possible to appease her mother, so she nodded in agreement.

Song Lanzhang exchanged his servant with the maid on their boat, exchanged a few words with each other, and then followed the maid's guidance and left.

This lake lotus was carefully taken care of by the flower slave, and it bloomed luxuriantly. The maid carefully rowed the boat at the stern, and the boat sailed through it with difficulty.

From time to time, Song Lanzhang would be scratched by lotus stalks with small thorn hooks. Soon, he would be sloppy and even his tied hair would be accidentally scratched.

The hair on his forehead swayed slightly with the hull of the boat, lingering on Song Lanzhang's handsome face, which seemed both sentimental and ruthless.

Song Lanzhang was about to enter the cabin to take shelter, but the bow of the boat accidentally hit a hard object, making a dull sound.

He quickly held on to the edge of the boat to avoid falling headlong into the lake.

After steadying his feet, he looked up and saw that the sharp corner of the bow was touching a piece of green clothes.

Tsing Yi, clear water, green leaves.

In this green world, the owner lying comfortably on the boat seems to be sleeping directly on the water.

Like a demon or a fairy.

The girl was lying slightly on her side, her face covered with lotus leaves.

The boat was knocked and collided, and after lingering for a few times, the lotus leaf finally slipped off, revealing the face underneath with fair skin and delicate features.

Looking from a distance, it looks like a newly born lotus demon in Lotus Lake.

The lotus leaf slipped down, and the woman's closed eyes seemed to be stimulated by the sudden light. After her eyelashes trembled slightly, she slowly opened her eyes.

The lotus demon who was originally resting comfortably in the lake was finally disturbed by the intrusion of outsiders.

At this moment, Song Lanzhang received an unprecedented visual impact.

After he regained consciousness, he turned around in a panic and looked to the side. The expression on his face was serious, but if you look closer, you can see that his eyes were actually unfocused.

"Does it look good?"

Ji Mingxin had already noticed the arrival, but was too lazy to pay attention.

She did not feel obscene or offensive from the stranger's eyes, and she did not reject this kind of pure amazement and appreciation.

Song Lanzhang thought she was mocking his disrespect, and his face burned for a moment.

"Is this Miss Ji in front of me? I'm Song Lanzhang. Thank you very much for your help to my sister. Lan Zhang is very grateful..."

Song Lanzhang cupped his hands and thanked him, with shame in his eyes.

"Just now, please forgive me for being rude..."

"I mean, I'm rude, girl, don't be upset..."

As Song Lanzhang spoke, he immediately wanted to bite off his gibbering tongue. He didn't know why he was so clumsy today!

She obviously offended others, but she asked them not to mind being angry, as if to imply that she was narrow-minded...

The embarrassed-looking young master Qingjun in front of him was frowning in frustration, but Ji Mingxin interrupted his confusion with a chuckle.

"I didn't take it to heart at all. Besides, I'm serious. I'm very happy to be praised sincerely!"

"Well……"

Although he is always praised by his elders and respected by his peers, he is still a young boy now and really doesn't know how to deal with it.

Knowing that these noble gentlemen were thin-skinned, Ji Ming was not embarrassed.

"You came here just to say thank you?"

Song Lanzhang breathed a sigh of relief as there was no need to continue the original topic.

He gradually calmed down as he returned to business, and the thin blush on his face quickly dissipated.

"The girl was kind-hearted and lent her only oar to my sister. Now that it is getting late, it is not appropriate to stay on the lake. Lan Zhang came here just to give the oar to the girl."

Ji Mingxin followed his words and looked up at the sky. At this time, the sun was warm and there was an occasional breeze on the lake. It was clearly a pleasant time.

However, Zhuangzi was far away in the suburbs of Beijing, so he had to leave early in order to reach the city gate in time.

The banquet was about to end, and it was really hard for her to continue to depend on others. In that case, there was nothing wrong with him saying that it was getting late.

Seeing her nodding, Song Lanzhang handed over the oar.

Ji Mingxin didn't answer, stood up, jumped lightly, and landed on his boat.

"this……"

Song Lanzhang was about to say something when he was interrupted by Ji Mingxin.

"There's nothing like this. I'm a little lazy lying down and don't want to row!"

She pointed at the girl at the back of the boat who was silent and bowing her head: "I'm not afraid of what you are afraid of. Besides, there are still people here."

Song Lanzhang shut up immediately. He finally realized that he had no choice in front of this girl.

The two of them sat on the bow of the boat and watched the scenery in front of them go backwards.
