The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Chapter 26 Is She Out of Danger?

This cat really doesn't seem to be very friendly. It grins with its sharp teeth showing, its ears stand straight up, and its hair all over its body seems to be exploded.

She thought the kitten was really not cute, so she picked up a plate of mutton and was about to go over to tease it and get to know it, but the kitten meowed and jumped outside.

Li Xiying walked closer to the window and imitated the cat's meow, only to see the cat running towards the lake in the distance.

Seeing that the kitten seemed to hate contact with her, she wanted to turn around and go back to the table to continue eating, but she heard a man's voice admonishing from the lake, "I told you, I'm busy all day and have no time to accompany you, don't you know? I will have to leave after having dinner with my parents. I should be back in half a month. You can't be without food and drink in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so don't be sad all day!"

"I don't see you on weekdays, and I'm a widower, but I'm less than half a month pregnant and I'm about to give birth. It's said that giving birth is a life-threatening experience. You only have this one wife, so can't you stay with her until we give birth to our child?"

"Why are you so ignorant? I..." The man hesitated and left with a wave of his sleeves. "I'm going to have dinner with my parents. Just be careful. It's just giving birth to a child. What woman hasn't experienced it?"

The kitten stopped at the feet of Yi, whose face was filled with tears, and stared at the direction the man left with its fur standing on end.

Li Xiying thought the kitten was really smart. Was it looking for help? So what if she was led to look? This was someone else's family affair. She could just listen to it accidentally, but she had no right to intervene.

She looked down at the steamed mutton in her hand, picked it up and took a bite. While chewing, her eyes never left the lonely figure in the pavilion. Sometimes, if you put everything on others, you will always be disappointed. There will always be a day when you can't bear the burden. Instead of relying on others, why not start by changing yourself?

After all, if you have no expectations, there is no need to be disappointed.

Perhaps this is what it means when a bystander judges, while those involved are confused.

She was about to turn around and go back to the table when she heard the sound of water falling.

Li Xiying looked carefully and found that she fell down?

There was only a maid left in the pavilion, screaming in panic.

There were surging water in the center of the lake, and a pair of women's arms were struggling hard in the water. But there seemed to be no one around except the maid in light green clothes shouting loudly.

It was dinner time and the servants had probably gone to the main hall to serve, so the person who fell down would probably be in great danger.

"My wife fell into the water, please save her! Woo..." the maid screamed, almost breaking her throat.

Li Xixiao ordered the plate of mutton without hesitation and headed for the lake.

The pavilion is right in the center of the lake, with only slight ripples on the surface, as if no one had ever fallen there.

Li Xiying asked the maid to stop crying and told her to hurry to the main hall to call for help. Before the maid could react, she had tied up her skirt and jumped into the lake with a "splash".

"Okay." The maid came to her senses and immediately trotted to the main hall.

Li Xiqi still remembered that when he was a child, he fell into deep water and discovered that he could swim. Therefore, he specially ordered people to bring a pool of spring water from the mountain stream in the manor for summer cooling and entertainment, so there should be no problem in saving people.

The water in this lake was naturally many times larger than the spring water in her own farm, but it also contained a lot of impurities and algae, so it was a little sour to open her eyes under the water. She saw Yi clearly, and she had gradually lost her strength to struggle and slowly sank.

She hurried over and grabbed Na Yi's arm, knowing that the deeper she sank, the more time and effort it would take to pull her up.

This pregnant woman was really heavy. It took a long time for her to swim half an inch and she was still a little far from the water surface. Her little face was red from not breathing underwater, but she held the pregnant woman's hand and never let go.

If we let go and try to breathe, the pregnant woman would continue to sink. This is the center of the lake, and there are many tangled aquatic plants on the bottom of the water. If she gets entangled, rescue would be several times more difficult.

Just a little bit more! Just a little more swimming and you can get it out of the water!

The lake water poured into her nasal cavity uncontrollably, and the uncomfortable feeling was accompanied by a sharp and piercing sound of flowing water that suddenly rang in her ears. She felt dizzy for a while, and then she felt someone lending a hand and pulling Yi up.

She seemed to have lost all her strength, the voices gradually faded away, and her eyes closed gently.

I only felt someone holding my wrist, and my body was lifted up. I didn't know whether I was out of the water or not. I fell into a flash of white light and lost consciousness.

A faint sound rang in my ears, and when I opened my eyes again, I was no longer at the bottom of the lake.

A cool feeling surged in my throat, mixed with the astringent taste of lake water, and a burning sensation in my throat and nose.

"Cough cough..."

What came into view was an elderly doctor sitting on a stool beside the bed. He removed the acupuncture needles from Xi Xi's neck and then packed up the medical instruments.

In addition to the old doctor, there was also a maid in light green clothes standing in front of him.

When the maid saw Li Xiying wake up after coughing up water, she immediately took out a clean handkerchief to wipe her neck, looking relieved, "Young lady, you are finally awake."

Li Xiying was puzzled. As Na Yi's maid, why was she staying with a stranger instead of staying by her master's side?

Could it be Yishi's idea? Yishi had been in the lake longer than she was, but she woke up earlier than she did?

The maid put away the handkerchief, took the prescription from the old doctor, thanked the doctor, and sent the doctor out of the room. Soon she came back.

The maid said anxiously: "Madam, since you are fine, I will go back to my wife to report.

Li Xixiao then realized that she had changed into a new set of clothes. The material was silk and satin, which was more luxurious than the original skirt. She probably hung the original white clothes out to dry because they were wet.

"Did she escape?" Li Xiying asked. In fact, what she wanted to know was not how she escaped, but how she fell down when there was a maid by her side.

The maid shook her head. "After you pulled my wife out, she was still breathing. Fortunately, the imperial physician did his best to save her life. But who would have thought that she would be in the gates of hell again and is giving birth now!"

"Giving birth is a big deal, go ahead." Li Xiying heard the weak words and lay down again. She didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs. She pulled the quilt up and felt a little tired and cold. She wanted to sleep for a while.

When I woke up again, it was already morning. The room was cold and deserted. Occasionally, a cool breeze blew through the window, bringing with it the faint scent of crabapple.

She came to the table. This was the corridor room where she was arranged to live. Everything was there, even the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone were neatly placed on the table. Seeing that the inkstone had signs of being used, she did not feel restrained.

As the sky was slightly brighter, he rolled up his sleeves, picked up the small pot, dripped a drop of water on the inkstone, and slowly ground the ink on it.

I don’t know what happened to Amber. If she was in the guesthouse, she would definitely be caught and interrogated by my fourth uncle. If this girl was smart enough to avoid the interrogation and we can’t find her, where would she go?

All their valuables are with Amber, so she will definitely not end up on the streets, and will definitely not lose the way back to the village.

She picked up the pen, but didn't know how to put it down. She didn't know how to tell grandma that she was fine and not to worry, and how to tell Amber not to look for her.

If this letter falls into the hands of Fourth Uncle and is traced back to its source...

After thinking about it, he raised his eyebrows and put down his pen.
