1. The princess falls into the water

The sun is roaring, the green mountains are green, and the clear water is full.

Chen Xiuwen jumped into Baiyun Lake, but unexpectedly caused a big trouble.

The light green cool lake water with a little smell of mud flooded his mouth and nose. He held his breath and swam hard.

Forty or fifty meters away from him, a little girl wearing a tender yellow palace gauze dress floated silently on the water, as if a piece of ginkgo leaves in autumn were slightly clear in the ripples.

In a few blinks, Chen Xiuwen swam near her, took a closer look, took a deep breath, pierced into the water, put one arm through her armpit, and gently supported the back of her head with the other hand, surfaced. He quickly looked around the lake, then swam towards a nearby shore rock, and lifted the girl up to her head.

Not far away, there was a small boat that was overturning. Two people who were fluttering around grabbed the wooden side tightly, and it seemed that nothing happened for a while.

Chen Xiuwen glanced at the little girl who was not moving, then supported the stone with both hands and kicked up hard, dragging the wet black robe to squat next to the little girl and checking her breath.

Fortunately, it's a little angry.

Chen Xiuwen put down most of his heart, pinched the little girl's smooth and beautiful chin, and opened her mouth. He looked down and looked at it carefully. Seeing that there was no foreign object in his mouth, he let go and changed to one knee. He bent his legs and pulled the little girl up, let her stomach hit his knee, and then patted her back hard.

The little girl started vomiting water, and it took a while before stopping. Chen Xiuwen put her down and lay flat on the ground. Seeing her eyelids tremble and crystal tears slid down the corners of her eyes, she said softly: "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

The little girl slowly opened her eyes, revealing her bright and innocent pupils. At this time, it seemed full of sadness, which made people feel sour when they saw it.

Chen Xiuwen's eyes stagnated, and he patted her arm comfortably and said, "Hey, are you okay?"

The little girl blinked and looked at him, a hint of surprise flashed across her, and she gently tapped her chin.

Seeing that she had nothing to do, Chen Xiuwen smiled at her and said, "That's good, I'll go and catch the other two people." He looked at the position, took a deep breath, and then jumped into the water again.

At this time, the little girl's mouth moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she still didn't make a sound and just closed her eyes again.

Chen Xiuwen went back and forth twice, performed extraordinaryly, and finally saved everyone before he was exhausted.

The two of them were still half-aged children, both dressed in eunuchs. They just choked a few sips of water in the lake. When they climbed up, they saw the little girl next to them closed her mouth and cried loudly.

"Master!Master!"

Chen Xiuwen sat down on the ground casually, panting and resting, but was shocked by the voice. He looked at the little girl and saw her frowning slightly, and said, "She is still alive. Go and call your family. Don't catch a cold or get sick after a long time."

The two little eunuchs were stunned for a moment, as if they didn't know whether they should listen to him.

Chen Xiuwen sighed secretly, this little girl's servant is too unreliable, why would her family let her play like this?

He twisted the water from the corner of his robe, looked at the two hesitant, and said, "Why don't you move? You stay and take care of him. Go and spread the news, don't be too late!"

Now the older one finally staggered up and ran towards the palace on the mountain. The younger one knelt beside the little girl and was at a loss for a while, and continued to call the master to wipe her tears.

Chen Xiuwen looked in that direction and his eyes narrowed. He looked at the little girl again. Seeing the eunuch's actions, he couldn't help but hold his forehead and said, "Stop shouting, help her up."

"Ah?" The eunuch looked confused, hiccup, then turned his eyes and actually fainted.

Chen Xiuwen was speechless. Judging from his clothes, he should be a young father-in-law, or at least he is a royal waiter. Even if he is not very clever, he shouldn't be so indifferent, right?

Well, after all, it looks like he is only the age of a junior high school student. He was probably too scared to fall into the water just now, and now he is exhausted and can't hold on.

Chen Xiuwen stood up, looked at the two people exposed to the sun on the ground, sighed, and continued to do the good things to the end. He first picked up the little eunuch who had just fainted and dragged it under the shade of a big tree nearby. He looked back at the little girl's slender body. He tried his best to hug her and hug her, intending to let her lean against the trunk and wait for someone to pick her up.

Under the tree, he was about to let go of her and took a casual look at her face, but saw her staring at him, not knowing how long it had been.

Chen Xiuwen was slightly shocked, and then grinned again, "You are awake, I asked your eunuch to find someone."

The little girl looked at him with her clear eyes, as if she was very calm. The sadness she had before seemed to be his illusion. She flashed her long eyelashes twice, pursed her pink lips, and whispered: "You don't have to be here, let's go first."

Chen Xiuwen paused his arm, gently released her, and then smiled freely and said, "Okay, then I'll say goodbye."

The little girl put her arms together and hugged her chest, held her hands tightly in her sleeves, lowered her eyes and nodded slightly. She saw a lot of things during the life and death. After opening her eyes, she thought a lot.

She said to herself, Duanmufu, it is enough for you to be stupid once! Since you have survived, you must live well and live better than anyone else!

Before leaving, Chen Xiuwen saw her with her wet head, a little fleshy little face, looking inexplicable. She hugged herself tightly, looking pitiful and cute.

He couldn't help but ask again: "Can you do it yourself?"

Duanmu Fu raised his eyes when he heard this, and tears seemed to surging in his eyes. But she held it down and said softly but firmly: "I can do it, you go quickly."

She didn't expect that he was such a good person, and the rumors were indeed unreliable. She didn't want him to be involved in her affairs immediately. She would always make some noise when she went back later. She would want to repay his kindness with her benefactor, but it was definitely not the moment.

If he didn't leave at this time, he would be hard to get out of here later. She didn't know if the hypocritical faces in the palace would come over to cause trouble, but she really didn't want the person in front of her who looked like a breeze and a bright moon to see it at all.

"Okay, goodbye." Chen Xiuwen smiled and waved his hand, looked at the road again, and walked towards a mountain road.

Duanmu Fu stared at him, feeling that his shaking hands seemed to be two of the legendary stupidity, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly. Her eyes kept following his figure, watching him disappear into the mountains and forests, and then she sighed and took it back. She looked in the direction of the palace again, and saw that Gao Huan, the general manager of the Yonghua Palace, rushed over with someone, and there was a bit of complex emotions in her eyes.

It is not easy to live well. But she will never retreat, never again!

Duanmu Fu glanced coldly at the little eunuch on the ground and slowly closed his eyes again.

"Your Highness! I'm late! Your Highness!" After a while, Gao Huan rushed to her side with concern.

Duanmu Fu's hair was wet and distracted, his face turned pale, and he was still muttering in a coma, and he called out softly: "Father, Father..."

Gao Huan hurriedly ordered the grand palace maid to pick her up carefully, and then said to the eunuch behind him: "Hurry up, you can report to the emperor first!"

After watching the man bring Duanmu Fu to the sedan chair, he frowned and asked someone to lift the eunuch on the ground, and ordered him to return to the palace.

Before leaving, Gao Huan looked at the quiet Baiyun Lake and the overturned small boat of inner lotus-picking, and sighed in his heart.
