Chapter 660 The Emperor Fell into the Water
Hearing the name "Shen Baolin", the concubines all looked towards the pavilion in the center of the lake.
Shen Xinran was wearing a sexy bright red exotic costume, a veil on her face, and a tambourine in her hand. As she moved, the drum emitted clear and melodious sounds that complemented the music.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the scene.
Qin Junyu on the dragon boat lowered his head and concentrated on peeling melon seeds. He peeled one and Nian Susu ate one, but they could not keep up with her at all.
"The one just now has a shell stuck to it, so be careful." Nian Susu said with a sneer.
Qin Junyu said "Oh" and looked more carefully, checking each melon seed front and back before putting it in her hand.
She actually let the emperor, who was so high and mighty, peel melon seeds for her personally, and even found fault with them after peeling them. If she drank with the ministers on the same boat, she would definitely be criticized again. Nian Susu was glad that she had made the original arrangement.
As the rhythm of music and drums gradually quickened, the atmosphere became tense. A violent storm seemed to be brewing under the heavy and depressing drumbeats, and the dance reached its climax.
Shen Xinran raised her leg high to kick open the gauze curtain, then jumped onto the small boat near the pavilion in the center of the lake.
The boatman had received orders in advance, and as soon as she got on the boat, he rowed towards the dragon boat.
Qin Junyu was completely unaware. Nian Susu glanced casually and saw that Shen Xinran had already boarded the deck, less than ten steps away from them.
The ministers stared with eyes wide open, their faces full of shock. There were many concubines who used their talents to attract the emperor's attention and compete for his favor, but there were not many who were as blatant as Shen Xinran.
"Shen Baolin is here to see you." Nian Susu nudged Qin Junyu with his elbow.
"Ah..." Qin Junyu looked up in confusion, still holding an unpeeled melon seed in his hand.
Shen Xinran did not approach rashly, but kept winking at Qin Junyu and hooked her slender finger to signal him to come over.
Qin Junyu frowned in disdain.
"It seems that if you don't go over, she can dance here all night." Nian Susu complained silently.
Shen Xinran has been dancing on the deck for more than a minute since she boarded the dragon boat.
Qin Junyu sighed, and driven by Nian Susu's several glances, he walked over reluctantly and stood in front of Shen Xinran like a piece of wood.
Shen Xinran twisted her waist more and more vigorously, and the smile on her face was difficult to control.
She slowly approached and put her hand on Qin Junyu's shoulder. She clearly felt his upper body stiffen and his expression turned ugly.
"Take your hand away." Qin Junyu's tone was cold and threatening, as if he would break her arm on the spot if she dared to take another step closer.
Shen Xinran was startled, perhaps frightened by his aura, and really didn't dare to touch him again.
She stopped dancing angrily and stood one step away from him. When she looked up, the bright moonlight fell on her face, softening her features. Her icy skin was flushed pink, and her eyes were full of love as she looked at him.
The sounds made by Bi Langdao were ambiguous and lingering. She had also specially applied ylang-ylang fragrance on her body, which had the effect of arousing arousal. She had just danced around him for so long that the medicinal effect of ylang-ylang fragrance was fully exerted, and no man could resist it.
Qin Junyu's eyes were dazed for a moment, and he actually mistook Shen Xinran for Nian Susu. When he blinked again, he saw Shen Xinran's face again. This happened several times.
"Your Majesty, come with me." Shen Xinran pinched her throat and made a charming and soft voice, "Your Majesty~ Come here~"
Qin Junyu shook his head twice and followed her forward uncontrollably.
Nian Susu in the cabin noticed something was wrong, stood up with the help of the long table, and stared at Qin Junyu's back.
She smelled a strange smell just now and thought it was an illusion, but now it seems that is not the case.
Nian Susu hurriedly took a few steps forward, and the next second he saw Qin Junyu and Shen Xinran fall into the lake together. The boat shook, and Nian Susu staggered.
"what--"
"The Emperor fell into the water——"
"Someone is coming——"
Screams rang out one after another and the scene was in chaos.
Nian Susu hurried to the deck to see the situation in the lake.
After the two fell in, they seemed to be sinking. Apart from the gurgling bubbles on the surface of the lake, no one was seen floating up.
The Guards of the Imperial Court jumped down like dumplings. If anything happened to the emperor, they would die too. Everyone tried to save others as if they were saving their own life.
Nian Susu's face was solemn. She had already guessed what was going on.
"Zhihua, go get the imperial physician."
"Bring two more clean blankets."
Zhihua responded, lifted her skirt and went down to the boat, and told the boatman to go back to the shore.
The concubines on the other side of the pavilion in the center of the lake also saw Qin Junyu fall into the water. They were worried that they hadn't rescued him for such a long time, so they covered their chests and looked around anxiously, their delicate faces pale with fear.
"Why did I see Shen Baolin dragging the emperor away?"
"That's what I saw. The emperor was still some distance away from the boat, but Shen Baolin lured him to the edge step by step, and then dragged him off the boat."
"This is premeditated murder!"
"Does she want to die by blatantly trying to assassinate the emperor?"
Yang Zhitao was also terrified. She held onto Qiu Minjing's arm and refused to let go. "Sister, will the emperor be okay? Why would Shen Baolin do this? The emperor didn't offend her."
Even the emperor never summoned her to sleep with him.
Qiu Minjing knew everything in her heart, but she couldn't explain it to such a simple little girl. She could only comfort her implicitly: "Don't worry, the emperor will be fine."
Ma Chunxi suddenly said: "The emperor will be fine, but Shen Xinran is in trouble."
Qiu Minjing's expression changed immediately. She knew that Yang Zhitao would definitely ask more questions, and she also knew that Ma Chunxi would not explain any more. In order to make the situation less awkward, she rubbed Yang Zhitao's shoulders before she spoke, and asked gently, "Are you cold? Do you want a palace maid to bring you a cloak?"
Although it is summer, the evening breeze makes people's hands and feet cold in the middle of the lake.
Yang Zhitao shook her head, her attention diverted, "I'm not cold, sister, if you are cold, let them get it."
Qiu Minjing smiled and nodded.
On the other side, the Hulin Guards had already rescued the people.
Just at this time Zhihua returned to the dragon boat with the imperial physician and a blanket.
Nian Susu took the blanket and covered Qin Junyu with it. "Are you okay?"
"Cough cough cough..." Qin Junyu's face looked ugly. Compared to the physical discomfort from falling into the water, what was more serious was that he was very angry.
He glared at Shen Xinran who was lying on her side on the deck, her wet clothes almost dried by the anger in her body.
Shen Xinran actually dared to drag him off the boat, which was enough to show that she would do anything to achieve her goals. Such a person would sooner or later harm others if he stayed in the palace!
Shen Xinran covered her chest and coughed, her wet clothes sticking to her skin, the wind made her shiver, she didn't know if it was because of discomfort or fear, tears fell from her eyes.
Her dance costume was sexy to begin with, and most of it was made of gauze. Once it stuck to her body, it was no different from being naked.
