“Shu’er! Shu’er!”

When Worthy Consort Xu saw Yan Huaijing jump into the water to save the woman without a word, she thought that it was Han Jingshu and hurriedly walked over. Unexpectedly, when she saw that it was Yu Wan, her mind immediately went blank.

In the end, Han Jingshu was saved by someone from the palace, but she choked on too much water and fainted. An experienced old nanny quickly pressed on her chest and let her vomit out the lake water that was pressed against her chest. Han Jingshu slowly woke up, but her expression was not right.

Worthy Consort Xu could not be bothered to deal with Yu Wan now. She quickly asked the palace servants to bring her palaquinn and send Han Jingshu to Xianfu Palace.

“You come here too!” Worthy Consort Xu shouted at Yan Huaijing, who was drenched, before leaving.

Yan Huaijing looked at Yu Wan, who was panting heavily. Li’er took her cloak and walked forward. She wrapped it around her young madam and blocked Yan Huaijing’s vision.

Yan Huaijing left with a complicated expression.

The moment he entered the side hall of the Xianfu Palace, Yan Huaijing was scolded by Worthy Consort Xu. “…What are you thinking? Shu’er and that woman fell into the water at the same time. Why did you save that woman? Shu’er is your fiancée! That woman is already married! She’s Yan Jiuchao’s wife! In front of everyone, you abandoned Shu’er to save her. Have you thought of the consequences?!”

It was not that he had not thought of the consequences, but he had forgotten everything the moment he jumped into the water. He only knew that he could not let anything happen to her. Otherwise, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

“You! You’re really going to anger me to death!” Her son did not say anything, and Worthy Consort Xu felt like she had punched cotton. If this was not her biological son, she would have long beaten him out. However, he was a piece of meat that had fallen off her body. What could she do? She was also in despair!

Worthy Consort Xu pressed the space between her eyebrows and said, “Mrs. Han and Second Miss Han have gone to the Empress’s palace. I’ve already gotten someone to bring them news. When they come over later, be good. Don’t say anything wrong, do you hear me!”

There were a total of three young ladies in the Han family. The eldest daughter was already married, and she was married to the son of the governor of Wan City. The second daughter’s wedding date had been decided, and the person she was marrying was Mrs. Han’s nephew. From the looks of it, the Han family had no relationship with other royal relatives and had even accidentally roped in a governor of Wan City. How good was this family? There was no better one in the entire Great Zhou. Why didn’t her son know how to cherish it?

Worthy Consort Xu had a headache!

When Mrs. Han and Second Miss Han rushed to the Xianfu Palace after receiving the news, Worthy Consort Xu was already guarding Han Jingshu’s bed. Yan Huaijing stayed outside the screen to avoid arousing suspicion.

He did not look at Mrs. Han, nor did Mrs. Han look at him. She led her second daughter over.

“Greetings, Your Highness.” Mrs. Han bowed, and her second daughter followed behind her.

Worthy Consort Xu quickly held her hand. “Mrs. Han, please get up. Rou’er, don’t be so polite.”

The Second Miss, Han Jingrou, waited for her mother to stand up before standing up.

Mrs. Han came to the bed and looked at her youngest daughter, who had been wronged. Her eyes turned red. Then, she said to Worthy Consort Xu, “I heard that Shu’er fell into the water and caused trouble for Her Highness.”

Trouble? Han Jingshu had fallen into the water because of her. Of course, it was not good for her to say this. She could not say that she had deliberately pushed Yu Wan, but Yu Wan had pulled Han Jingshu, causing the two of them to fall into the water.

Moreover, she could hear the displeasure in Mrs. Han’s tone. She didn’t really think that Han Jingshu had caused trouble for her. She was angry that Yan Huaijing had saved another woman.

Although the Prime Minister Manor was not of the royal family, it was a noble family. Even in front of the Emperor, they had the confidence. Han Jingshu marrying the Second Prince was definitely not out of her league. At most, they were of equal status.

Worthy Consort Xu said with an ashamed expression, “It’s all my fault. I was only concerned about admiring the scenery and forgot that that area was covered in moss. Mrs. Yan accidentally slipped and bumped into Shu’er. The two of them fell into the water.”

Worthy Consort Xu had stripped herself clean. She firmly believed that Mrs. Han would not ask Yu Wan for confirmation, and Yu Wan could not prove that she had pushed her.

But was Mrs. Han concerned about the reason for falling into the water?

Mrs. Han glanced at Yan Huaijing behind the screen.

Worthy Consort Xu immediately understood and said with a vexed expression, “This child really wants to anger me to death. He went into the water to save Shu’er, but he saved the wrong person. Fortunately, Shu’er is fine. If anything happens to her, he’ll be in trouble!”

His words made it seem like Yan Huaijing cared a lot about Han Jingshu. Without Han Jingshu, he would be on the verge of death.
