Chapter Ninety-Five: Overboard

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Duanmu Rui didn't expect that he was not afraid of anything on weekdays, but such a capable person was afraid of water, so his heart softened for a while.

The boat was sensitively searching in the lotus flowers, and when Su Wanyan saw the lotus canopy, she asked Duanmu Rui if there were lotus seeds in it, Duanmu Rui smiled and said, "Haven't you seen it?" ”

Su Wanyan said in her heart that she was a modern person, and she really didn't know much.

Duanmu Rui folded a lotus pod for her, broke it for her, and took out the lotus seeds from it.

Su Wanyan had a playful heart, and wanted to fold a few flowers to go back, so she stood on the side of the boat, and the boatman stopped the boat, she was still a little nervous in her heart, the more nervous she was, the more clumsy her movements became, and she stepped on her skirt and fell into the water.

Duanmu Rui couldn't bear to look at it, so he immediately jumped into the lake and let the boatman go back by himself.

He saw that Su Wanyan kept fluttering in the water, constantly sinking, and immediately swam over, clasped her waist and prepared to take her to the water, her dress absorbed the water and became very heavy, and it was wrapped around the lotus flower stem, he quickly took off the layer of gauze on her outside, and then supported her waist out of the water.

Su Wanyan gasped and opened her eyes to look at him, her body and hair were wet, her big black and white eyes were also moist, and her eyes were still palpitating, like a frightened deer.

Duanmu Rui was looked at by her with such a gaze, his heart trembled slightly, and under impulse, he couldn't help but bow his head and kiss her lips.

Su Wanyan's eyes widened in surprise and helplessness, and she subconsciously wanted to break free, but Duanmu Rui held her head with one hand and fixed her waist with the other, making her unable to move, but she quickly softened her mind and slowly closed her eyes.

She tasted the taste of the lake, and then the breath of Duanmu Rui, the sun shone on the water, reflecting pieces of light, she felt hot in front of her eyes and face, but there was wet moisture everywhere, and there was an indescribable cool intimacy.

Because she was afraid of falling into the water again, she could only hold Duanmu Rui tightly, the two were closer, she struggled to breathe, Duanmu Rui let go of her for a moment, looking at her red lips and blinking eyelashes, like a butterfly fluttering in his heart, he took a deep breath, kissed again, and hugged her tightly to his chest, then he knew how soft and slender her body was, which made him excited.

Finally ending this kiss, Su Wanyan gasped slightly, Duanmu Rui's fingertips were still lingering on her face, looking at her affectionately.

"Let's go up quickly, it's time to catch a cold in a moment." Su Wanyan grabbed his hand from his face and said embarrassedly.

"Okay." Duanmu Rui smiled and led her out of the lotus bush and swam to the secluded side of the shore.

Neither of them expected to fall into the water, so they didn't bring a change of clothes, so Duanmu Rui had to borrow a fire to light a pile of firewood and grass, and the two squatted on the ground for a long time before drying their clothes.

Duanmu Rui asked Su Wanyan: "You don't seem to be completely incompetent in water, but how can you be afraid of water?" ”

"I just can't do water." Su Wanyan thought about where she was going to have water sex, so she categorically said that she wouldn't.

Duanmu Rui nodded thoughtfully.

"If you have a chance, you can teach me to swim." Su Wanyan said with a smile.

"Okay, I promise to teach you, otherwise it will be too worrying like today." Duanmu Rui raised an eyebrow at her.

Su Wanyan thought that she must have been stupid just now, so she bit her lip and didn't speak.

After the clothes were dried, he returned to the carriage and prepared to return to the palace, probably because of the kiss, there was a sweet smell between the two, and Su Wanyan was shy when his eyes collided, Duanmu Rui was delighted, and couldn't help but grab her hand.

When I returned to the palace, it was dark, and the attendant from the palace said that I had been waiting for a while, so Su Wanyan went to change her clothes and followed her into the palace to meet the emperor.

Su Wanyan was worried in her heart, some time ago, Duanmu Rui exposed her strength, and the emperor failed to assassinate her again and again, so she didn't know what the emperor would say to her.

When she walked into the palace, she saw that the emperor looked at her with a kind face, not as imposing as before, and she didn't know what he was thinking.

The emperor said to her in a calm tone, "The poison in your body should be about to attack, how are you feeling lately?" ”

The emperor's poison has long been resolved, Su Wanyan almost forgot about it, and when she heard the emperor mention it, she hurriedly said: "I feel tired easily, I am flustered and short of breath, and I have been very uncomfortable recently." ”

"I recently learned that my imperial brother has such a great ability, which really makes me not know whether to be happy or worried."

Hearing what the emperor said, Su Wanyan pretended not to know and said: "Some time ago, the prince was busy going out early and returning late, and sometimes he didn't return to the house at night, and the concubines didn't know what was going on, so they were very worried about him, and he didn't say anything when he asked him. ”

Seeing that she didn't even know such a big thing, she was very disappointed in her, but she didn't want to give up using her, so he handed her the box of the antidote and said to her: "This is the antidote this time, I need you to do one thing, since you can't gain the trust of the emperor's brother, and you have no heirs so far, I decided to arrange a concubine for him, you go back and tell him about it, he doesn't want you to persuade him to agree." ”

Just cultivated some feelings with Duanmu Rui, and wanted to arrange a concubine, Su Wanyan was reluctant in her heart, and glanced up at the emperor, "The prince doesn't want to ...... this matter."

"This is my order, and there is no reason to talk about it." The emperor scolded and interrupted Su Wanyan's words.

Su Wanyan reluctantly returned to the palace and told Duanmu Rui about the matter, and Duanmu Rui asked her opinion.

She thought for a while and said: "The emperor's attitude is very resolute, if he doesn't accept it, he will accept it, or wait until the concubine enters the palace." ”

Duanmu Rui had no choice but to agree.

The emperor quickly arranged for a Xiang family to enter the mansion, and Su Wanyan arranged a place for her to live, and two maids, and she was also well entertained with three meals a day.

Since she was sent by the emperor, she would definitely tell the emperor, so Su Wanyan was very thoughtful to her, and in order to show that she was also working hard to find out the news, she often went to Duanmu Rui, Duanmu Rui was very satisfied with her, and even a little grateful to the emperor.

But he has always ignored Xiang's family, and Xiang often went to Su Wanyan in the name of asking for peace, and hinted again and again that Su Wanyan arranged for her to sleep, Su Wanyan pretended not to understand, and every time she passed perfunctorily.

Xiang didn't know if she was really stupid or pretending, and when she saw that it didn't work with her, she went to Duanmu Rui by herself, and went to the courtyard where Duanmu Rui lived.

Finally, when it was almost dark, he waited for Duanmu Rui and stepped forward to talk to him.

"The prince came back so late, it's hard work." Xiang's boast of his extraordinary beauty, so he raised his face and stared straight at Duanmu Rui.

Duanmu Rui bowed his head with a cold face and asked her, "You are the one sent from the palace, what is your name?" ”

Seeing that he didn't remember himself, Xiang was gloomy and replied: "The slave's name is Wanqiu, and her surname is Xiang. ”

Duanmu Rui quickly asked, "Wanqiu?" Which euphemism? ”

Xiang thought he was interested in his name, and a soft smile appeared on his face, "Gentle Wan, it was taken by my father, and the slave also likes this name, I just hope that the slave is gentle and beautiful." ”

Duanmu Rui didn't have the heart to listen to her chatter at all, and said coldly: "Don't you know that the princess's name also has this word?" As long as you are in the house, don't tell anyone your name in the future. ”

Xiang Shi was startled, looked at Duanmu Rui in a panic, and replied to him meekly: "I don't know, I will definitely avoid it in the future." ”

Duanmu Rui nodded, wanting her to go back, but she had already taken out a sachet from her sleeve pocket and held the sachet with both hands: "Lord Wang, this is made by a slave, please accept it." ”

Duanmu Rui looked at the sachet, if other women gave him this kind of thing, he would definitely not accept it, but this Xiang family was sent by the emperor, and he didn't know what the task sent by the emperor was, he hesitated for a moment, and he took it if he wanted to test what she was going to do.

No, Su Wanyan's voice suddenly sounded, "The prince is back." ”

Duanmu Rui looked at her with a smile on his face.

Xiang was a little weak-hearted, so he wanted to leave immediately.

Su Wanyan walked over in a few steps, pulled the sachet from Duanmu Rui's hand, and pretended to be surprised: "Whose craftsmanship is so good and so exquisite." ”

She sniffed the smell and looked intoxicated, "Well, it's the smell of almonds and roses, it smells good." ”

looked at Duanmu Rui again, "Give it to me to play." ”

Duanmu Rui smiled and nodded, "Take it if you like." ”

Su Wanyan glanced at Xiang's with a smile on her face, "This craft should be Sister Xiang's, in the end, the prince has a big face, I didn't even see a thread of Sister Xiang, but Sister Xiang sent a sachet to the prince." ”

She didn't know that to outsiders, her words were full of vinegar, and Duanmu Rui couldn't stop smiling.

She finally took the sachet back, and Xiang also went back to her residence in a huff.

Recently, Nangong Qiu Ni returned to the capital from the border pass, she came to see Su Wanyan, and saw that there was the sachet on her table, which didn't look like something for women, and praised: "I didn't expect your female celebrity to be good, it's for the prince, right?" ”

Su Wanyan smiled, "What did I do, it was the concubine arranged by the emperor for the prince to send it to the prince, and the prince actually accepted it, so I grabbed it in a fit of anger." ”

Nangong Qiu Ni would not interfere in the affairs between their husband and wife, but she always felt that the taste of this sachet was not quite right, so she picked it up and smelled it carefully, opened the bag and looked at the contents filled inside, and her face immediately changed.

"This thing is poisonous in it, it is a kind of poison from the Western Regions, and the slightest contact will kill you in a short time."

Hearing Nangong Qiu Ni say this, Su Wanyan took it and sniffed it carefully, and found that it was indeed not a simple taste of almonds and roses.

"But you don't seem to have anything to do." Nangong Qiu Ni looked at Su Wanyan strangely.

Su Wanyan also felt strange, it had been two days since she took back the sachet, and it had been placed on this table, and she had been sitting here for a long time, so it could be said that she had been in close contact, but she had no signs of poisoning.

She told Nangong Qiuni about what happened to the Xiongnu, "Yiqu Long is a master of poison refining, he has given me several medicines, and what magic medicines have he taken, it is estimated that it was the problem at that time." ”

Nangong Qiu Ni checked her pulse, and felt it carefully for a long time before saying, "Your physique is indeed a little strange, as if there is a barrier to protect your internal organs. ”

After thinking for a while, he told her, "Maybe no poison can help you now." ”

Su Wanyan was particularly pleased, "Are you saying that I am invincible to all poisons, is there such a good thing?" ”

Seeing that she was happy, Nangong Qiu Ni also smiled, "It's like this right now, and everything else in the body is normal." ”

Su Wanyan asked Nangong Qiuni to dispose of the sachet, went to Duanmu Rui by herself, and told Duanmu Rui that the sachet was poisonous.

"It seems that if you hadn't snatched the sachet that day, I would have been poisoned." Duanmu Rui said with palpitations.

"If you refuse, she will be fine, but you take it, and you deserve the poisoning." Su Wanyan was still a little uncomfortable when she thought of what happened that day.

Seeing that she was unhappy, Duanmu Rui smiled and said: "I also want to thank you for being jealous that day, that day I wanted to test what she wanted to do, but I didn't expect it, I won't dare to ask for other people's things in the future." ”

Su Wanyan glared at him, "Do you still want to have a future?" ”

Duanmu Rui hurriedly said: "No, it won't be in the future." ”

Su Wanyan had a smile on her face.

"But why aren't you poisoned? Are you okay? Duanmu Rui looked at her face carefully, looking very worried.

"I'm fine, no poison is of any use to me now." Su Wanyan told Duanmu Rui about her invincibility.

Duanmu Rui looked at her in surprise and looked around from top to bottom, "There is such a thing, it's also strange that Yiqu Long unintentionally did such a good thing." ”
