After Liu Che'er fainted due to heat stroke, he was hurriedly escorted by Xiao Minglang and others to the nearest resident's house to rest, and a doctor was sent to come for diagnosis and treatment.

After a while, Liu Che'er really came to his senses, he opened his eyes in a daze, and found Xiao Minglang and Liu Yikang and others standing in front of the bed.

"The water cut cannot be delayed...... This king cannot fall! Liu Che'er stood up and said weakly.

Liu Yikang hurriedly helped the crumbling Liu Che'er, "Third brother, how can you still move around like this!" You just rest, what you want to do, let's do it! ”

Liu Che'er looked at Liu Yikang with satisfaction, shook his head and said: "At this moment, it is the time when the people need this king, and this king can't lie on the bed as if nothing happened!" ”

"Lord Wang, the fourth prince is right, if there is anything, you just have to tell Weichen to do it!" Yutai Mingyue said worriedly.

"Report! Qi Yu Wangye, dozens of people gathered in the east of the city, in order to compete for well water, a fight broke out, and many people were trampled and injured! Another guard rushed in to give the report.

Liu Che'er was so angry that he stood upright, and hurriedly instructed Tangtai Mingyue, "Shantai, this king asked you to hurry up to maintain order, and inform the general to guard the well for this king, and no one is allowed to take water privately." It's up to you to distribute, not wasted! ”

"Don't worry, the minister will definitely complete the task!" Yutai Mingyue leaned down, resisted the scorching sun, and rushed towards the place of trouble.

"Everyone, let's drink some tea!" The owner personally brought a few teacups and handed them to Liu Che'er and others.

Xiao Minglang shirked and said: "You don't have much water, so it's better to keep it for yourself." I'm not thirsty. ”

Liu Che'er also put down the tea, "Yes, old man, save some quickly, we are not thirsty." ”

Liu Yikang was about to open the tea lid, and when he heard this, he reluctantly put it back to the ground.

The landlord politely said, "You just drink, I have a lot of storage there." You make a living for the people all day long, and the old man can still afford this little tea. ”

"The old gentleman also took the well water from the east of the city?" Xiao Minglang asked.

The owner waved his hand and said, "No, I picked it out from the west mountain, where there is a clear spring." It's just that the terrain is so steep and rugged that it's hard to pick out the water! ”

When Liu Yikang heard this, his eyebrows erected angrily, "You old man, you only got water yourself, but you don't tell others!" Can't you bear to watch people die one by one! ”

The owner of the house was so frightened that he trembled, "The prince misunderstood, the prince misunderstood, Xiaomin also just discovered it, and the flow of water in that stream is very small, a bucket of water, you need to wait for most of the day!" ”

Liu Che'er pressed Liu Yikang down and said softly to the owner: "How far is the West Mountain from here?" ”

The owner scratched his head and thought for a while, and gestured with his hand: "It's far away!" It's going to take a while! I also found it by accident going up the mountain to chop wood. ”

Liu Che'er glanced at Xiao Minglang, and Xiao Minglang understood, "Where there is living water, there must be a water source underground, so I'll check it out." Maybe dig a well from there to solve your urgent needs! ”

Liu Che'er nodded and said, "This is exactly what this king meant. Brother Lang, this is a difficult journey, act carefully! ”

"Don't worry, just wait for me to come back!" Xiao Minglang turned to the owner and said, "I hope the old gentleman can lead the way for me." ”

The owner of the house did not shirk, took a straw hat from the back room, and led Xiao Minglang to the west mountain.

"Alright, it's time for us to go." Liu Che'er settled down and reluctantly stood up.

"Third brother, wait, I'll ask someone to lead the horse and send you home." Liu Yikang was about to go out when he was stopped by Liu Che'er.

"Not going home. The water has been cut off in the city, and there is no need to delay it any longer. I'm going to have to go upstream of the moat and see if there's any way to get through the blockage. ”

Liu Yikang persuaded: "Third brother, you are not feeling well, let your subordinates do it!" ”

"How can they get an idea?" Liu Che'er ignored Liu Yikang's opposition and insisted on walking out the door.

"The third brother insists on going, so let the fourth brother accompany him!" Liu Yikang called on Ying Han to catch up with Liu Che'er and support him left and right.

Liu Che'er nodded with satisfaction, called the protector to lead the way, and walked towards the moat together.

It was already the time to hold the lamp, and the palace of Yidu was empty, and there was no one walking around.

In front of the lobby door, the lights were dim, and the figure of a slender woman was faintly visible.

Painting the face of the independent courtyard, looking out from afar.

"Where have all the people in this house gone? Seeing that the prince was not in the house, there was no one in the kitchen, so he didn't even light the lamp. Sheng Lan took the dinner, came from another corridor behind Hua Yan, and placed the meal on the small table in the courtyard.

"Miss, it's time to eat." Sheng Lan called softly.

Hua Yan finally moved his steps, turned around and sat down at the dining table, his eyes full of sadness.

Sheng Lan felt that her face was wrong, and while handing over the bamboo chopsticks, she asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" Full of thoughts? ”

Hua Yan absentmindedly took the chopsticks, looked out the door from time to time, and said worriedly: "I don't know why, since this afternoon, I have always been restless. ”

Sheng Lan smiled: "Miss is seeing that Xiao Gongzi is not around for an afternoon, and she wants to see him, right?" ”

Huayan had no interest in joking, remembered something, and suddenly asked worriedly: "Yes, Minglang and the prince have been out for most of the day, and they haven't come back yet, nothing will happen, right?" ”

Sheng Lan smiled and reassured: "There are many people around them, how can something happen, Miss, don't think about it, let's eat." ”

Huayan can't explain his inner feelings, so he can only let it go for the time being. She picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate slowly with Sheng Lan.

"Where has this man gone? No one cooks! Zhong Laosan shouted into the house as he walked.

Tate, who was following behind, covered her ears and complained: "Zhong Laosan, if you make a small noise, my ears will be deafened by you!" ”

Zhong Laosan turned around and said in a bad voice: "You girl, I don't know good or bad, I'm still afraid that you will be hungry and ask someone to cook!" ”

"You're starving yourself! Don't make excuses for me! Tatelinlang turned around and walked towards the light, and when she turned a corner, she ran into Huayan and Shenglan, who were eating in the court.

"Yo! You're so rich here! Tatelinlang was so hungry that her saliva flowed, she sat down next to Huayan, reached out and grabbed a chicken leg, and took a bite.

Sheng Lan stopped his chopsticks, glanced at Tately Linlang in surprise, and saw that the painting did not stop, so he had to keep silent.

Seeing that she didn't say anything about her, the bolder she became, she took out one hand and poured wine by herself.

"Good fellow, drink it yourself! Don't call me either, white-eyed wolf! Zhong Laosan scolded at Tatelinlang, turned around and sat down next to him, eating and drinking happily.

Sheng Lan's carefully prepared dinner, before it could be started, was quickly killed by the father and daughter of Tatelinlang.

Sheng Lan looked at the messy dinner table and looked at Hua Yan with an aggrieved face, but she didn't see her accusing her of Tatelinlang, so she had to swallow her anger and silently watch the two of them eat with relish.

Huayan had no intention of eating, put down the dishes and chopsticks, turned around and walked slowly towards the gate.

Seeing that the painting was expressionless, she left without saying a word, only thinking that she disliked herself and refused to sit at the same table, so she threw the half-gnawed chicken leg into the bowl, wiped her oil-stained mouth, stood up and crossed her waist and said, "What do you mean!" You're not happy to eat a little bit of your meal? Or are you self-respecting and noble, and you don't want to share the table with us pariahs?! ”

Sheng Lan hurriedly stood up and maintained: "Don't say it, my young lady is not that kind of person!"

"Then why did she leave without eating when she saw me coming?" Tatelinlang didn't let go.

Hua Yan turned sideways slightly and said, "Sheng Lan, you go and call Limu over for dinner." ”

"You haven't answered me yet!" Tatelinlang asked anxiously.

Huayan ignored Tatelinlang's entanglement, and was about to walk forward, when he saw a figure flash in the darkness.

"Who's there!" Huayan drank coldly.

When the man walked in and took a closer look, he realized that it was a guard of the palace.

"Miss Painted Face! Go to the moat and have a look! Lord Wang...... Lord Wang, he fell into the water! The guard said with a grime face and tears in his eyes.

Painting Yan felt a pang in his heart. It's time to come or it's coming!

"Which prince?!" Tateshiro stepped forward and asked tightly.

The guard replied, "Third Prince...... King Yidu! Miss, go and save our prince! ”

"What the hell is going on? What about Xiao Gongzi? Isn't he by the prince's side? How did the prince fall into the water? ......" Tatelinlang wanted to ask, but before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Huayan in a cold voice, "Where's the horse?!" ”

The guard replied, "It's right outside the door!" ”

Hua Yan didn't ask any more questions, and immediately ran out of the door, swept on the horse's back, and rode the black wind quickly.

"Wait for me, I'll go too!" Tately Linlang hurriedly chased to the door, but she had long since disappeared.

Sheng Lan led the horse and was about to catch up, but was stopped by Tatelinlang, "You have to take me!" ”

In order not to delay time, Shenglan had no choice but to pull Tatelinlang onto the horse and quickly catch up.

The noise and crying are getting closer and closer, and the black crowd makes the painting more and more unsquare.

Don't get into trouble! Painting Yan prayed secretly in his heart. She stepped out of the crowd, jumped off her horse, and wandered aimlessly.

"Lord Wang, where are you?!" Hua Yan shouted loudly in the crowd.

Seeing the arrival of Huayan, everyone consciously gave way to a road.

The further you go, the louder the cry becomes.

What's going on? Huayan couldn't help but shudder.

It wasn't until he saw Liu Che'er's body lying horizontally on the ground not far away, that Huayan couldn't support it anymore, and took a few steps back tremblingly.

No...... No......

The painting prayed and forced himself forward.

She shuddered.

How could it be so cold all of a sudden?

"Huayan, save the third brother! In order to save me, he accidentally fell into the swamp himself, and when he was rescued...... Obviously there is still breath, but now it is ......" Liu Yikang ran to Huayan, grabbed her arm tightly, and said to her in a hoarse voice, looking at her with a pair of red and swollen eyes full of anticipation.

As soon as Hua Yan heard that Liu Che'er was in danger to save Liu Yikang, he couldn't help but glare at him coldly.

She indifferently brushed Liu Yikang's hand away, turned around and squatted beside Liu Che'er, only to see that his mouth and nose were covered with mud! She was so angry that she didn't have time to ask others questions, so she quickly slapped Liu Che'er from behind.

The palm force cleared the mud from the mouth and nose that blocked Liu Che'er's breathing, but there was still no movement of Liu Che'er's consciousness.

In disbelief, Hua Yan stretched out his hand tremblingly, and touched the pulse on Liu Che'er's neck, for one minute, two minutes, three minutes......

Liu Che'er's pulse never beat again!

Huayan's legs went limp, and he fell to the ground.
