Chapter 258 Dragon Boat Race

The maidservant in Concubine Xian's palace accompanied Xu Yin to change clothes.

Seeing the Yongjia county lord bowing his head and sniffing his nose from time to time, the maid felt sympathetic and explained: "The county lord should not be sad, Miss Yu was just careless, and no one saw her just now."

Xu Yin lowered his head and said: "You don't need to comfort me, if no one sees, why would the empress send you here?"

"Uh..." The maid paused.

Xu Yin said quietly: "I have always admired well-educated people. I always say that Ms. Yu is dignified and courteous, and I always keep a three-point closeness in my heart. I didn't expect... I don't know how I offended her."

Ever since she came to the capital, Concubine Shu was abolished directly and Concubine De was grounded indirectly, Concubine Xian had a bright future.The servant girl stood by the master's side and had a good impression of Xu Yin. Looking at her now, she said softly, "Miss Yu may have lost her mind for a while, and this has nothing to do with the county lord."

"What is she trying to mess with?" Xu Yin raised his hand to cover his eyes, "Others said that I almost became the prince Liangdi, but your majesty and empress never asked me about it! Since the nobles didn't mention it, then It’s just not! Why should I suffer this injustice? It’s as if I don’t have the face to cling to the powerful.”

Seeing her grief and indignation, the servant girl hurriedly said: "Of course not! The county magistrate couldn't be more polite, Miss Yu is overthinking."

Xu Yin simply whimpered and cried: "She is the future crown princess. She poured hot tea on me like this today. When she enters the East Palace in the future, she will kill me. I can't stay in this capital, please let me go home. Bar!"

Hearing her speak so bluntly, the servant girl was so anxious that she broke out in sweat.If people want to hear this, it will be a big deal if any gossip spreads and affects the reputation of the royal family!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" The maid hurriedly persuaded, "You have been wronged today, and your empress knows it well, otherwise I would not have sent my maid over here. Miss Yu will never do anything to you, don't worry! "

The corners of Xu Yin's mouth that was hidden under his sleeves turned up, he raised his red eyes, and looked at her pitifully: "Really?"

"Really, go and change your clothes first, and then rest for a while, don't let others see the difference. With His Majesty and Empress here, you will definitely not suffer this loss for nothing."

Only then did Xu Yin raise the corner of his mouth, with a very moved look: "Well, thank you for me later, Madam."

The servant girl breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Xiao Man waiting there, said: "Your servant girl is here, why don't you change your clothes first?"

She didn't realize that under Xu Yin's crying, she originally wanted to confuse the matter, but finally admitted that it was Yu Manqing who deliberately harmed others.

Xu Yin complied obediently this time, entered the Zen room, and changed clothes under their service, but his eyes were still red and swollen, which couldn't go away for a while.

"I don't want to go back." She said with a bit willfulness, "If I see Miss Yu right now, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it."

The maidservant hurriedly said: "Then you rest here for a while, and the maidservant of the empress will let someone talk about it."

Xu Yin nodded to her: "Thank you very much."

The maid even said she didn't dare, and then called a little maid to pass the message, and she stood guard at the door.

As soon as the door was closed, Xiao Man went to open the side window.

Xu Yin poked his head over to see that Xiao Sang was already waiting outside, and when he saw her, he waved hurriedly.

"I leave it to you." She turned her head and whispered to Xiao Man.

Xiao Man patted his chest: "Miss, don't worry, until you come back, I will keep it from you."

Xu Yin nodded, pulled up the hem of the skirt, and flipped it out neatly.

……

In the main shed, Yu Chong frowned when he saw his daughter coming in.

"What's going on?" He was still looking outside, as if he was concentrating on watching the dragon boat race, but he was asking, "Why are you provoking her so much?"

"Father!" Yu Man's eyes turned red, "Don't even you believe me?"

Yu Chong paused, and his tone was suspicious: "You didn't splash her? Is that her pretending?"

Yu Manqing responded, and said aggrievedly: "This Yongjia county monarch has a big heart, no wonder he has to want to be the prince Liangdi."

Yu Chong was taken aback for a moment, hearing what she meant.So Miss Xu San deliberately framed her to prevent her from becoming a crown princess?

However, the position of the princess is not based on this. As long as he is in power for a day, Yu Manqing's marriage will be as stable as Mount Tai.

This Xu San is not such a stupid person, Xu Huan assured her to assassinate Wu Zijing, it can be seen that this daughter was also trained as a successor, how could he not see this?

Yu Chong had all sorts of questions in his mind, but now that he was in the wrong place, he could only press it temporarily, and was going to ask again when he went back.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" There was a drum beating outside, and the dragon boat race was about to start.

Each family encouraged their own dragon boat team one after another, and the people watching on the shore shouted loudly to support their favorite team.

In the fiery atmosphere, King Duan jumped on the dragon boat wearing a narrow-sleeved riding outfit and a headband.

His handsome attire, combined with his noble status, immediately attracted cheers like mountain shouts.

Seeing it, Yu Manqing couldn't help following her eyes.

Madam Yu accidentally caught a glimpse of it, her heart skipped a beat, and she lightly touched her.

"What are you looking at?"

Yu Manqing retracted calmly: "It's nothing."

All the dragon boat teams were ready, and the gong rang with a "boom", and these strong men swung their oars together, and the dragon boats flew out like arrows off the string.

The sound of refueling on the shore became more intense, and there was a lot of people everywhere, and many people ran after the dragon boat.

The location of the color shed is relatively high, and it can be seen from a distance.After a while, the dragon boat came back after a circle, and there was already a difference in speed.

In the front is the dragon boat team formed by the Imperial Army, and the dragon boat teams of Duanwang Mansion, Fuwang Mansion, and Jincheng Princess Mansion are not far behind.This situation made the three girls even more excited, jumping up and waving their fists, completely ignoring their ladylike temperament.

After the second lap, the Dragon Boat Team of the Forbidden Army was still at the front, and the Dragon Boat Team of Duanwang was closely behind them.There was only one hull missing, and the two sides were biting tightly.

By the third lap, they were still at the forefront, but the gap was as small as half the hull.

Princess Changning yelled "Ah!" and shouted loudly: "Uncle Huang, work hard! Catch up! We are number one!"

Driven by her, Yu Manqing also became nervous.It's only a short distance, can you catch up?
On the last lap, she kept her eyes on the turning point, and there were still two boats coming side by side, and it was almost impossible to tell who was ahead and who was behind.

Duan Wang stood at the bow of the boat, beating the drum again and again. Seeing that the finish line was in front of him, the sound of the drum gradually accelerated, and the paddling frequency of the team members also increased.

"Dong dong dong dong!"

Yu Manqing only felt his heart beating, and stared at the bow of the boat.

Finally, the dragon boat of Duanwang Mansion passed the colorful gate faster than the tip of the boat!
"Wow!" Princess Changning jumped up, "No. [-]! No. [-]! We are No. [-]! We are the leaders!"

Yu Manqing couldn't help but smile.
