Luoyang Brocade Chapter 171: Falling into the water

Princess Anya turned her head slightly, looked at Ling Jingshu beside her, thought for a while and said with a smile: "I remember you, your maiden name is Ling Jingshu?"

The girls who came to the banquet today are all outstanding in talent and beauty. However, Ling Jingshu is still dazzling and eye-catching among them.

Ling Jingshu pursed her lips and smiled: "Your Highness Princess has a very good memory. She only heard my name once and she remembered it."

"You were born so beautiful, how could I not remember it?" Princess Anya blinked, quite playful and cute.

Ling Jingshu smiled slightly: "Your Highness the Princess is ridiculous. After two years, Your Highness will grow up in stature. I wonder how beautiful and graceful she will be!"

No one likes to be praised by others. The person who opened his mouth to praise was a beautiful woman with stunning appearance, and the words were sincere, which made people feel even more comfortable.

Princess Anya's smile brought a hint of joy and shyness: "What you say is really lovable." She paused and smiled again: "Are you really not good at playing the piano, or are you here to accompany me?"

Ling Jingshu responded without changing her expression: "To be honest with you, Your Majesty, I have been studying piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since I was a child. I am involved in everything, but I am not proficient in it. Especially the piano art, which requires extraordinary talent. It requires a lot of time to practice hard every day. I am not interested in this, and I neglect to practice, so I simply don’t show my shame in front of everyone."

Actually, although Ling Jingshu doesn't particularly like piano art, she has put in some effort and has no problem playing a piece in front of everyone.

However, when I saw Princess Anya admitting that she was not good at playing the piano and then being punished by picking lotus flowers, the words came out of her mouth somehow.

After hearing these words, Princess Anya felt the same way. She immediately felt close to her and sighed in a low voice: "I usually have to learn everything in the palace. I have a full schedule every day, even for rest. I don’t even have time. It’s a pity that I haven’t learned everything in detail. Fortunately, my mother-in-law is not strict with me and allows me to let it go. Otherwise, my life will be difficult.”

As a princess, I am not as relaxed and carefree as others think!

Ling Jingshu became curious about the rumored Wei Jieyu, and said tentatively: "I heard that Empress Jieyu is the most beautiful woman in the harem, but it is a pity that I have no chance to meet her."

As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea! As a concubine in the harem. Only those with high grades and great favor. Every year during the Chinese New Year, I have the opportunity to see my family.

As for leaving the palace and returning to peace, that is an honor that only the queen of the palace can have.

Speaking of which, Wei Jieyu is considered lucky. Imperial Physician Wei went in and out of the palace every day. The two siblings often meet. I don’t know how many concubines are secretly jealous.

"The mother-in-law has never left the palace, and somehow she got the title of the most beautiful woman in the harem." Princess Anya was still young after all, she spoke modestly, but her eyes flashed with pride. He naturally promised: "If you have the opportunity to enter the palace in the future, I will just take you to see your mother and concubine."

Ling Jingshu smiled hurriedly and said: "With my status, there is no chance of entering the palace. It's just a casual joke, Your Highness doesn't need to take it seriously."

Yes! Only ladies of the third rank or above can enter the palace to see the Queen on the first day of the new year. Uncle Ling is only a fourth-grade official, and the female relatives in his family are not eligible to enter the palace.

Princess Anya smiled. He stopped talking and turned to look at the lake again.

Ling Jingshu also stopped talking, and looked at the pond full of lotus flowers with Princess Anya.

……

A group of ladies from famous families. Sure enough, all of them are extraordinary.

After Jiang Rongyue played the song "High Mountains and Flowing Waters", Su Ying played the bamboo flute again.

The sound of the flute is melodious and melodious. It was quite cheerful, and everyone was full of praise.

Amidst the melodious and brisk flute sound, Princess Anya finally chose a white lotus. The petals of the lotus are huge, bigger than the mouth of the bowl, and shine brightly in the sun.

Princess Anya and Princess Changping are not usually close, but they also know Princess Changping's preferences. Princess Changping does not like buds that are about to bloom, but she likes flowers that are in full bloom.

Princess Anya chose this one specially.

Ling Jingshu followed Princess Anya's gaze and said with a smile: "Your Highness has really good taste. That lotus flower is indeed very beautiful."

It happens to be near the cruise ship again, so you can pick it up with your hands.

Princess Anya said enthusiastically: "Do you think it's good too? It took me a long time to pick the one. When the boat came close, I picked the lotus."

As the ship got closer, we discovered some technical difficulties.

There are some differences between visual inspection and actual distance. What's more, Princess Anya has short arms and can't reach her while sitting on the boat.

Princess Anya stretched out her arms, but still couldn't reach her, and her face turned red from suppressing it.

Ling Jingshu looked amused and felt pity, and whispered: "Your Highness, I will pick it for you."

Princess Anya became stubborn: "No need. I promised to pick a lotus myself, how could I let you do it?"

However, she is really out of reach...

"Well, do me a favor." Princess Anya rolled her eyes, had an idea, and whispered something in Ling Jingshu's ear.

Ling Jingshu frowned subconsciously and objected: "This is a bit dangerous. Your Highness has a body of gold, and you must not do this."

What should I do if I accidentally fall into the water?

Princess Anya usually follows the rules, is quiet and introverted in the palace, but when she leaves the palace, she has an eleven or twelve-year-old girl who is naughty and mischievous. After you have an idea, insist on implementing it: "If you are unwilling to help, then I will call someone else to come."

Ling Jingshu couldn't resist the stubborn Princess Anya, so she had to agree.

Princess Anya leaned half of her body on the railing and stretched out her right hand to pick the lotus. Ling Jingshu held her left arm tightly, feeling extremely nervous.

At this time, Su Ying's bamboo flute was playing to its peak, and almost everyone on the cruise ship was mesmerized~IndoMTL.com~For a moment, no one noticed the actions of Princess Anya and Ling Jingshu.

Jiang Rongyue and Su Ying were at odds with each other, and they were probably the only ones who listened absentmindedly.

Jiang Rongyue's eyes turned around casually. When she saw Princess Anya leaning over the railing and reaching out to pick lotus flowers, she couldn't help but be startled and exclaimed without thinking: "Princess Anya! Danger!"

Everyone was attracted by this startled breath, and suddenly turned their heads to look over.

At this moment, Princess Anya’s white and tender hands have reached the lotus and she is plucking it vigorously. Suddenly I heard a sharp shout and was startled.

My right hand unconsciously exerted too much force, and my body actually slipped down the railing.

Ling Jingshu could not be said to be delicate, but she did not have much strength. She was trying her best to hold Princess Anya. Now Princess Anya's whole body has slipped down, and she can't hold it back at all.

With a pop, Princess Anya fell into the water.

Everyone was frightened, and Princess Changping's expression suddenly changed. (To be continued.)
