Chapter Twenty-Three: I'll Be Pleasing to You
Yu Ziying closed her eyes with bated breath, her long green hair poured into the water like splashing ink, the sun shining into the water, and she looked extremely calm and let the four of them join hands to drag into the cold and clear lake.
The water floating clothes swayed and floated, and the four of them, one crimson green, one light pink, one dark blue, and one water red, seemed to have been pre-trained a long time ago, and the two of them elbowed her under her armpits, and secretly applied force to lock them, and fixed each of her arms against pressure.
Anyway, the two of them pulled her down and grabbed her to settle, and they saw that Yu Ziying gave up resistance as if she was "out of strength", and then a "light pink" let go of her legs, spit out a string of bubbles, stared at a pair of vicious eyes, and her pretty face was covered with dark light and shadows, seeping like a resentful water ghost.
She swung her legs close to Yu Ziying, hooked her lips and smiled disdainfully, then took out a palm-sized venom dagger from her waist, and thrust it into her chest mercilessly.
However, during the period when she was ruthless in the killer, Yu Ziying suddenly opened a pair of deep eyes, and the eyes that only had a little dead breath were in the water, without waves, but anyone who touched them, only felt that it was as cold as frost, like falling into the purgatory of thousands of demons and demons, and they could not turn over forever.
The "light pink" princess was shocked, her glamorous lips were stunned and gurgled out strings of bubbles at great speed, her body's instinct to avoid evil was faster than her head's reaction, and as soon as the dagger was released, the whole person panicked and wanted to escape.
But soon she came back to her senses, and her original body froze in place, only to feel that her thoughts at that moment were very ridiculous, and she gritted the back sockets of her teeth, and then became angry, and then held the dagger a little tighter, as if she was going to poke Yu Ziying into a hole in the flesh before she would stop.
One leg of the "Princess Bao Dai" of the Ying Imperial Kingdom was pulled by someone, and her two arms were also locked by people with a special technique, even if the land knows martial arts, it is difficult to break free from the underwater cage set up by the four of them in this underwater world, let alone such an incompetent princess with a weak chicken.
So she is confident that she will never be able to move, obviously the other three also think the same, but it is a pity that they are all measuring the current "Princess Bao Dai" by a normal person's standard.
But can the current "Princess Bao Dai" be a normal person?
- It's a pity that she has been perverted for many years and can't return to her original appearance.
So when Yu Ziying used a little force, he pulled left and right to knock the two frightened and inexplicable princesses into a mouthful of mist, and then kicked a princess to the rock wedge at the bottom of the lake, blood gushed out, and then dragged the "light pink" princess's wrist joint to snap with a click, and the venom dagger fell into her hand.
- The weak chicken killed the princess of Shikoku in an instant, who would have thought that?
Although the joint of her right hand was broken, the "light pink" princess was still desperately holding her breath, but when she saw Yu Ziying's pair of midnight pupils again, her heart shook suddenly, and water continued to pour in from her ears and eyes, so she had to open her mouth, and the water had another entrance.
Without oxygen, she could almost feel her lungs expanding, like a balloon that was constantly inflated, growing bigger and bigger, as if it was about to explode.
She wanted to escape, but her life was now clutched in the hands of someone she had always looked down upon.
"Yes...... Who...... Send...... You...... Come...... Target. β
It was very difficult to say a complete sentence in the water, but Yu Ziying gathered into a kind of humming sound next to her ear through internal force, and her mouth shape was clear, and even if she couldn't hear it clearly, she could understand the shape of her mouth.
"No, say, no, only, you, die, you, the country, also, die!"
The cold dagger glowed with a strange green glow in the water, Yu Ziying pressed the dagger against the cheek of the "light pink" princess, pressing out a depression, the "light pink" princess's eyes were red, and the whole person was stunned, she really believed that she could do it at the moment.
Thinking that she was going to die at her hands, she was unwilling and frightened in her heart, her face was swollen with purple pain, she gurgled blisters, and barely spit out a sentence: "Help, I-"
"Yes, who?" Yu Ziying's eyes were indifferent, and she watched her toss and turn between life and death for a moment, struggling, suffering and despair.
The "light pink" princess clutched the corner of Yu Ziying's sleeve, her chest was almost about to explode, she knew that she couldn't hold on for long, she was about to suffocate to death, so the instinct to survive finally overpowered, she opened her mouth, water poured into her mouth and nose, and the gurgling bubble sound was vague and squeezed out: "Yan-"
As soon as she spat out the word, what little consciousness she had vanished, and she leaned back and lost consciousness.
ββ
On the shore of Taihu Lake, the blue waves ripple, a piece of lotus leaves in the background of infinite blue in a palace painting boat from the west end, the painting boat hangs wind chime glaze, the top is painted with yellow paint, the ship pillar carved beams and painted phoenix, when it approaches, only to find that its railing is nine curved red, decoration and engraving are lifelike.
The summer breeze was slow, and the red-robed Tobe Shangshu on the deck of the painting boat looked at the stove on the table, and the purple incense that was lit at the same time as the ritual book had half burned to the ashes, and he looked at the beauty of the lake that was tired of swimming, and suddenly heard a sound of eager footsteps behind him, and a brocade-clothed guard general hurriedly came: "My lord, five princesses are missing." β
Hubu Shangshu's face immediately changed, and he couldn't help but raise his voice: "What do you mean to be missing?!" β
The general lowered his head a few points: "When the boats scattered on both sides of the lake waiting for rescue were counted just now, they found that there were five people missing. β
"Which princesses are they?"
"Yanteng small country, Zhongxu small country, Shiliang small country, Cangtang small country, and ...... Five of the Ying Imperial Kingdom. β
When he heard that it was four small countries and one middle school, the urgency in his heart was a little more relaxed, people are like this, stepping on the low and holding the high, if it is a strong country, he will be panicked, but the situation in small country China is not so serious, even if there is an accident, he can still deal with it, but the seriousness on his face is still solemn: "Hurry up and send someone into the water to salvage!" How can you not even look at a person, it is simply unreasonable! This matter is over, and you will all go to the East Factory to receive the punishment by yourself."
The general's face was as white as pulp paper.
Hubu Shangshu said very seriously, did not mention the criminal department, and went directly to the Dongchang that eats people and does not spit out bones to receive the punishment, even if he is lucky not to die, he has to take off a layer of skin to be able to come out.
Although a document of exemption was signed with the envoys of various countries in advance, if there was a fatality, it was absolutely serious, and the Chaoyuan Kingdom was worried that this incident would cause an accident, so he had already sent someone to take a small boat to follow him all the way, and once he found any accident, he would immediately go into the water to rescue, and ensure that there would be no accidents to explain to the countries, but now there are five people missing at the same time, this group of guards is simply too slack in their duties!
"So, do you want to report it?" The general asked with a twinkle in his eyes and a glimmer of hope.
Hearing this, Hubu Shangshu's face stiffened, his expression suddenly gloomy, and his mouth was cold: "Go find someone first, it's not your turn to take care of other things!" β
The general smiled bitterly and received the order: "Yes!" β
As soon as he finished giving the order, he only heard a "pop" sound, and several heavy objects smashed on the deck wetly, and the guards of the ship, Tobe Shangshu and the staff generals were surprised to see that an object like a dead fish was thrown onto the deck, a crimson green, a light pink, a dark blue, and a water red, smashed on the deck motionless, until the most wet "live fish" slowly climbed up, and everyone suddenly spoke.
Where is this "dead fish and live fish", it is clearly a person!
And one, two, three, four, five, exactly the same number as the five missing princesses.
"Youβ" Tobe Shangshu was stunned.
"Live Fish" Yu Ziying brushed aside the strands of wet hair on her face, revealing a small face that was slightly white and slightly wooden after soaking in water, and said lightly: "Send me to the other side." β
"Y-How can you just get on the boat?" The guard, who subconsciously put on a defensive posture, looked at the embarrassed but unflustered girl in front of him, and said in shock.
Yu Ziying glanced at them: "I saved the princesses of the four kingdoms for you, and also avoided you from bearing the consequences of ineffective work, isn't it worth your efforts to send me on a trip?" β
The general looked at Yu Ziying, obviously recognizing her identity, it was Princess Bao Dai of the Ying Imperial Kingdom, one of the princesses of the Five Kingdoms who had just reported her missing, and he was greatly relieved to see that she had landed on the boat safe and sound.
However, when he heard her "conditions", he only felt a sigh on his face, and he was also a little embarrassed, and he secretly looked at the book of the household.
"Maybe I'll throw them down again, whether it's life or death, by the way, let's test it, and see what kind of crime your Emperor Jing will treat you?" Yu Ziying's tone was very flat, but anyone who heard this would feel a thorn in his ears.
"Youβ" The general's nose was crooked.
Tobe Shangshu tilted his head and said sharply: "Shut up!" Why don't you hurry up and check on the four princesses? β
"Yesβ" The general glanced at Yu Ziying uncertainly, and then beckoned a few guards to check on the injuries of the four princesses.
And Hube Shangshu looked at Yu Ziying with a strange and inexplicable look, and he secretly thought - he knew that Princess Bao Dai of Lu Dao was not such a person, she actually saved four princesses alone, and this noble discipline of saving people alone didn't seem to happen to her.
- Princess Bao Dai in front of him always gives him the illusion that he is possessed by a ghost.
"If I lose this time because of you......" Yu Ziying coldly curled the corners of her mouth and said with her lips moving: "Then I need to suspect that this drowning incident of the princess of the four countries was deliberately murdered by you!" β
- that's so shameless! Pure buying and selling can't be done, directly rely on framing!
The faces of Hubu Shangshu and the others were very ugly, and they all stared at Yu Ziying in a dead column, although everyone thought so, but in the end it was based on guilt"? "Self-blame"? "Kindness"? "Or threaten, or on the pretext of taking care of the sick, send people to the shore as soon as possible.
After a simple inspection, the four princesses were not in danger of dying, one injured his head, his forehead was swollen and a big cell, one choked on some water, and was out of danger after first aid, one broke his wrist and drowned, and the last one had multiple fractures on his body, but there was no big problem.
As for whether there is such a thing as internal injury, this group of big rough men felt that drowning could not be related to the category of internal injury, so they ignored the past, and they did not check that aspect at all.
So the four princesses were still in a coma, and when they arrived at the shore, they asked the imperial doctor to treat them well, only to realize that they were really injured this time, and stealing chickens would not make it a mess.
Since the painting boat is not used to ride the way of the participating princess at all, it is natural that the woman will not prepare a change of clothes, fortunately, the sun is big, and Yu Ziying does not feel cold even if she is wearing wet clothes.
After carrying the four princesses back to the cabin, Tobe Shangshu stepped forward to salute Yu Ziying, and after chatting with some ordinary people, he began to inquire about the disappearance of the five people.
Yu Ziying didn't think that she would have to explain to him one by one with her identity as the princess of a country, not to mention that the matters involved were too wide to be able to finish in a while, so she kept silent about his answers.
Hubu Shangshu saw that she didn't say anything, even if there were more doubts, she was singing alone, so she got angry, flicked her robe, and turned around and left.
Yu Ziying looked at the marriage princess who was still desperately chasing in the lake, and the one who couldn't stand the long-term light skills and fell into the lake with a bang, and commented very unscrupulously: "There are clearly boats around that don't know how to grab one, it seems that they all like this direct and rough way." β
As soon as Yu Ziying's words fell, the household that had not gone far listened to it, and was almost stumbled by a limp.
- If you want to be direct and rude, who can beat you!
When the boat arrived at the opposite shore, the stars and the moon, standing on the Jiuqu Xuan railing high above, Emperor Jing, who was wearing a python green crown, looked down at Yu Ziying, who was the first to arrive at the bow of the boat, when the narrow and cold phoenix eyes were bent, and the tips of the eyes were raised back movingly, shooting out a breathtaking ice blue brilliance.
He pursed his lips at her and smiled a little smugly.
She really would never let him down......
But this cold smile like a mountain cliff upside down slammed into Yu Ziying's eyes, but it was instantly distorted by her.
"Small, you can't escape from the palm of Bendi's hand, Bendi lets you win first, you don't dare to give Bendi the second!"
After understanding this kind of god (well, it's not a complete misunderstanding, Emperor Jing does have a bit of this kind of complacent pride) Yu Ziying stopped his steps about to move forward, frowned, and stood on the bow of the boat with thick eyelashes.
What did she want to do, the ship had already arrived, why did she choose not to move? Emperor Jing narrowed his eyes suspiciously.
Finally, after the first Yuwen Ying landed ashore overjoyed, the smile on Emperor Jing's face gradually faded when he looked at Yu Ziying, and after the princess of the second country also went ashore, Emperor Jing looked at her coldly and expressionlessly, and when it came to the third and fourth, it was ...... Emperor Jing's face was completely gloomy, like a flying frost in June, and his eyes staring at Yu Ziying almost wanted to freeze her into an ice sculpture.
Seeing that at this time, he still didn't know what kind of calculation she had, he was not the Emperor Jing of the Jiuzhou Continent!
Yu Ziying, good! You, very, good!
And Yu Ziying watched Emperor Jing's face deteriorate little by little, and the depression and gloom in his heart just now instantly disappeared.
- I can be happy when I see that you are not happy.
