Xu Xiuyi felt extremely uncomfortable, her lungs felt like burning pain, and every second was painful and long.
She regretted extremely that she did not learn to swim like Sister Ming.
No, she doesn't want to die!
She struggled desperately not to let herself sink, but it seemed that a water ghost really grabbed her and sank deep into the river bottom.
Until she was unable to struggle anymore...
Suddenly, a hand suddenly grabbed her slender waist from behind, and with a lift, she floated to the surface of the water.
When Xu Xiu was dazed, she could feel the strong muscles in her arms causing her pain.
But just because of the pain, it made her mind clearer, and several thoughts flashed through her in an instant.
Who is it? Is it Uncle Chang and the others?
No, they were pushed away early...Yes...Yes...
...It’s the prince!
The moment she emerged from the water, she whipped out the dagger from her waist and was about to slash the opponent's arm!
She couldn't let anyone see her being fished out by the prince!
The opponent keenly raised his hand and struck her wrist, but she still drew a short sword.
"Hiss!" He couldn't help gritting his teeth and grunting, and let go of his hand: "Are you crazy, so cruel and cruel to treat your savior like this?"
When Xu Xiuyi was dazed, she saw a pair of silver-gray eyes. She suddenly stopped struggling and sank into the water.
When the silver fox saw this, he couldn't help but cursed, dived down, picked her up, and swam to the shore.
Seven or eight people fell into the water, and people on the shore tried to save them. The prince and others did not expect that Xu Xiuyi had martial arts and could escape from the carriage so quickly.
The silver fox almost dragged Xu Xiuyi to the shore. The prince suddenly raised his voice and said to the river: "No, that carriage belongs to the Xu family. Could it be that Miss Xu's family fell into the water?"
After the prince shouted, he jumped into the water, led a few attendants, and swam towards the carriage.
After climbing ashore, Silver Fox, who was dragging Xu Xiuyi up, was speechless: "..."
The rest of the attendants and guards in the East Palace also started making noises and shouting, so that everyone would know that His Highness the Crown Prince fearlessly jumped into the water to rescue the eldest daughter of the Xu family.
Someone also called the people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division to start maintaining order, so as to prove that the people from the East Palace had just arrived at the river.
Seeing the prince leading the people to dig through the carriage in the lake, Silver Fox sneered and twisted the hem of his clothes. He was so evil that he did not intend to tell the other party that he had already rescued the people.
Xu Xiuyi was not the only person who had just been dragged up from the shore. People all reached out to help.
As soon as Xu Xiuyi was dragged up, some aunts and daughters-in-law came over to check on her.
An aunt touched Xu Xiuyi's nose and couldn't help but exclaimed - "No, this girl doesn't seem to be breathing!"
Upon seeing this, Silver Fox immediately looked at his men: "I asked you to call the doctor. When will the doctor arrive?"
"Back to Master Yinhu, Shopkeeper Li from Baicao Hall has brought people to the door a quarter of an hour ago, but it took some time to enter the city after the lock-up time. It will take at least a quarter of an hour to get here."
The spy from Dongchang cupped his fist at Silver Fox.
Yinhu looked at Xu Xiuyi who was silent on the ground, frowned, knelt down on one knee, reached out and pinched her chin, forcing her to open her mouth.
Then, with everyone looking at her in astonishment, he reached out and dug around in her mouth to make sure there was no algae blocking her mouth and nose, then he folded his hands and pressed on her chest several times.
Xu Xiuyi spit out a bunch of water instantly from her mouth and nose.
Silver Fox leaned down again, pressed against her chest and listened carefully for a while. Then he frowned, lowered his head, pinched her nose and started blowing into her mouth.
He was doing business in the Western Regions and even farther away in Sudan, and learned this method of saving drowning people from some Western Region merchants.
The effect of superimposing chest compressions is more effective than simply passing breath into a person's mouth.
Sure enough, although Xu Xiuyi was still semi-conscious, she began to cough painfully.
But his actions immediately shocked the onlookers: "This, this, this..."
Even the deputy commander of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division who had just arrived was dumbfounded: "This... this... isn't the eldest lady of the Xu family?"
He shouted, attracting everyone's attention, and then they quickly covered their mouths in annoyance.
Although the alien was trying to save people, he really treated the eldest daughter of the Xu family lightly in public!
At this time, how could he confirm in public that the girl who was rescued and then "frivolous" was the eldest daughter of the Xu family? Wouldn't that make Mr. Xu hold a grudge?
But it was useless for him to regret it anymore. Even the people in the East Palace noticed the movement here. Of course, they also heard that the eldest daughter of the Xu family had been rescued ashore.
Then...then...what is His Highness the Prince fishing for in the water?
Fishing for water ghosts?
Silver Fox didn't bother to care what other people thought. When he saw Xu Xiuyi reacting, he even opened his eyes.
He simply lifted her up and asked in a low voice: "Hey, can you still move? If you can't move, I'll put you in my carriage and drive you away."
He was used to teasing and teasing, but he didn't expect Xu Xiuyi to respond: "Okay."
Silver Fox was stunned: "You..."
Is this girl out of her mind?
"Where is my maid Mei Zhu?" Xu Xiuyi asked weakly but calmly.
Silver Fox raised his eyebrows: "I was rescued by my people."
Seeing that she cared so much about the lives of the servants around her, Silver Fox felt better about her.
He stopped teasing her and lowered his voice: "You need the doctor and medicine from Baicaotang, I'm here."
Xu Xiuyi paused and suddenly raised her eyes to look at him.
The two looked at each other for a moment, then Xu Xiuyi suddenly turned his face, raised his voice slightly and said to the deputy commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division——
"Master Wu, this is my father's friend. He came to rescue me when he saw me falling into the water. He can just escort me back."
Whatever the people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division can say, of course they can say yes!
I don’t know what the hell is going on during this ghost festival. The eldest lady of the Xu family is so wet and her curves are exposed. She should leave as soon as possible!
Deputy Commander Wu immediately asked someone to get a cloak and hand it over.
Silver Fox took the cloak and immediately put it on Xu Xiuyi, then picked her up neatly and carried her to his carriage.
The people in the East Palace who were still on the shore wanted to stop him, but they were too late. His Royal Highness the Prince was still acting in the water, and they didn't know that Xu Xiuyi's stage had been carried away.
Xu Xiuyi was brought into the carriage by Yinhu, but she didn't see Mei Zhu. She couldn't help but frown slightly: "Mei Zhu..."
"Her condition is more serious than yours. She's still unconscious. I'll have someone take her to the doctor when she gets ashore." Silver Fox said casually while undressing.
Xu Xiuyi tried her best to look out the window and saw that there was a commotion outside, and her guards didn't know where they were squeezed.
She leaned against the window tiredly and laughed softly: "It's really a bunch of demons dancing around."
As soon as she turned around, she saw Yin Hu's bare upper body. His skin was whiter than that of the people from the Central Plains, and his upper body was muscular, but not rough.
But Xu Xiuyi couldn't help but scream, and raised her hands to cover her face: "You, you, you... are you crazy? Why did you take off your clothes! Shameless!"
Silver Fox wiped his body with a handkerchief and sneered: "I'm soaked all over, and I feel uncomfortable if I don't change my clothes! Don't use the Central Plains etiquette to talk about things. I'm not one of your pretentious Central Plains people. Don't treat me inappropriately."
That’s all, I haven’t changed my pants yet, so I’ll give you face!”
Xu Xiuyi is a lady after all, she couldn't help but look away: "You, you... put on clean clothes quickly!"
Although she had seen more exciting ones on the black market, it was different back then. How could it be so close?!
While wiping away the water, Silver Fox asked calmly: "Don't Miss Xu hate me very much? How could she suddenly trust me so much and get on my carriage?"
Xu Xiuyi felt nervous. It was one thing for her to hate Silver Fox, but she had seen Silver Fox and Jiu Qiansui together.
I had guessed in my mind that he might be nine thousand years old.
But Silver Fox didn't know that she was the woman who almost had a fight with him that night, and she didn't want to have any clues falling into his hands.
She wiped the water dripping from her head with her cloak and lowered her eyes: "Although the man you are talking to is wearing ordinary people's clothes, he is wearing Jinyiwei style boots. You are from Dongchang."
Human?"
Jinyiwei is affiliated to Dongchang, and together with Dongchang, they are called Factory Guard.
Silver Fox narrowed his upward fox eyes and looked at Xu Xiuyi with a half-smile: "Miss Xu is really not simple. You are so smart. How did you fall into the prince's trap tonight?"
This girl didn't tell the truth. The way she stabbed him with the sword was Wudang swordsmanship.
It seems that a few months ago, he almost had a fight with a little pepper who was good at martial arts in the black market.
Xu Xiuyi huddled in her cloak, not daring to look at the shirtless Silver Fox. She just said in a cold voice, "It has nothing to do with you. Just send me back to the Xu family. Your kindness will be remembered by my Xu family."
This silver-eyed fox actually invited the doctor from Baicaotang in advance and got the medicine. It was probably Dongchang who had received the news that the prince wanted to take action.
Seeing Xu Xiuyi's alienated and distant look again, Yinhu felt a little unhappy. This little girl turned her back even more than she turned a book, and a noble lady from an official family had quite a big air about her.
He put on his clothes, held his chin, and asked with a smile: "People from the Central Plains say that if you save someone's life, you must give your body in exchange for it, but I am not interested in Miss Xu's body. What should I do? What are you going to do in return for me?"
