Quick wear: the host is so flirtatious, the substitute is Bai Yueguang

Chapter 57 Abuse in the Prince's Mansion (17)

That night, Wei Jinchi was about to fall asleep when he heard an unknown sound coming from the window.

He reached for the dagger next to the jade pillow and hid it under the quilt.

When someone came in by prying open the window, Wei Jinchi waited calmly.

The man in black walked to the side of the bed, clutching the handle of the knife tightly in his hand, a dazzling cold light suddenly appeared.Wei Jinchi quickly opened his eyes, and blocked the man in black's attack with a short knife.

There was a crisp sound when soldiers met at close quarters.

Like the sound of a pipa string being broken, it is light and crisp mixed with a few traces of vibrato, which is soul-stirring.

Seeing that he was awake, the man in black quickly fled out the window, and Wei Jinchi quickly followed.

He yelled, "Catch the assassin!"

But there was no movement from the guards around, so he had no choice but to keep up.

The man in black didn't seem to be familiar with the terrain, and fled in all directions. He followed closely behind, but disappeared in the backyard of the palace.

He frowned, looked around, and was about to leave when a familiar figure appeared in the gazebo by the pond.

Wei Jinchi stepped closer.

After seeing the girl's face clearly by the moonlight, he said coldly: "Jiang Rao, what are you doing here so late?"

Jiang Rao looked up at him, then continued to pick up fish food and throw it in the lotus pond.

"Of course I feed the fish!"

Wei Jinchi: "..."

She came here to feed the fish so late, thanks to her being able to figure it out.

He asked aloud, "Did you see anyone suspicious?"

Jiang Rao seemed to think about it for a while, then shook her head lightly.

Wei Jinchi was about to turn around and leave when he heard the girl's exclamation. He turned his head to look, but didn't notice that the footsteps behind him were just covered up.

"thump……"

He was kicked into the pond.

The water in the pond instantly submerged his body, and he felt a sense of suffocation.

Because of what he encountered when he was a child, he didn't know how to swim, or was even afraid of water, so the consciousness in his head was instantly overwhelmed by the surging water, leaving nothing but emptiness.

In despair, Wei Jinchi seemed to hear someone jumping into the water.

After a few seconds, his body was hugged.

When he was dimly conscious, he heard the girl's voice with concern.

"You still don't know how to water?"

"As stupid as when I was a child, fool..."

Looking at Wei Jinchi, who had fainted but was tightly wrapped around her waist, Jiang Rao's face was icy cold.

With the help of the man in black—Lian Chi, he got him ashore.

Lian Chi was afraid that someone would come over, so he left quickly.

……

"don't want……"

Wei Jinchi was awakened by the nightmare, with cold sweat on his forehead, and when he woke up, he found that he was already lying in his room.

The housekeeper hurried forward when he heard the movement.

"My lord, you finally woke up!"

Wei Jinchi sat up, the broken hair on his forehead was wet with sweat, and his voice was a little hoarse, "What's wrong with me, my lord?"

The housekeeper explained, "The prince fell into the water last night and was rescued by...the concubine. The doctor has already come to see..."

Before he finished speaking, the man seemed to think of something, put on his shoes and ran outside.

"Hey, my lord, you are still in poor health, where are you going?"

The housekeeper called after him.

Here, Jiang Rao was lying on a soft couch reading a script.

The system didn't understand the truth of that scene last night, [Host, why did you have someone kick Wei Jinchi into the water and rescue him yourself? 】

Jiang Rao didn't stop flipping through the script, and replied in her heart:
【Didn't you notice how Jiang Mi became his white moonlight? 】

Tongzi thought about it for a while, it seems that Wei Jinchi fell into the water in Jiang Country when he was a child, and was rescued by Jiang Mi who happened to see him.

Just as it was thinking, it heard its host say, 【What if I was the one who saved him? 】

No, it's Jiang Mi...

Wait, the host meant that Li Daitao was stiff!
