Under the water, her vision became blurry. Her nose and ears were filled with river water. She coughed until her lungs hurt, as if she had inhaled countless thorns.

Bai Xianyu held it in and tried her best to kick him away, but her legs were held back by him. She used all her strength to wrap her belt around him, dodged and pulled out his sword. It was not easy to use strength in the water, but she still stabbed that person in the waist. Blood flowed out. That person was furious. He grabbed her long hair and snatched her sword.

The rippling surface of the lake reflected some fluctuating sunlight on her face. Bai Xianyu completely lost her strength. Bubbles floated up from the corners of her mouth and exploded on the surface of the water. She slowly closed her eyes…

What a pity. If she had used a little more strength, she would have stabbed him in the heart…

Bai Xianyu closed her eyes and waited for the pain to come, but the first thing that sounded was that person’s heart-wrenching wail!

The smell of blood mixed with the river water.

Her eyelashes fluttered as she tried her best to see what was going on, but her eyelids were too heavy. She could only see a ball of red spread out in the water like the sun.

It seemed that someone had hugged her.

When Xie Xingyun carried Bai Xianyu out of the water, Bai Jingyuan, who was still in the distance, felt a strong sense of unease when he saw the girl in the purple dress.

“Call the Imperial Physician!”

“Yes, my Lord!”

The girl in his arms was pale. Xie Xingyun placed her on the shore and forced the water out of her body.

A few strands of hair stuck to her face. Bai Xianyu’s usually rosy face was pale. Amidst her violent coughing, she saw Xie Xingyun.

He was wearing a scholar’s uniform. The bright red festive suit had already turned dark red. His hair was slightly disheveled, and his gaze was terrifyingly dark.

When Bai Xianyu saw him, she was relieved, and she fainted.

Xie Xingyun’s eyes darkened when he saw the glaring bruise marks on Bai Xianyu’s hand. He took off his outer robe to cover her body and raised his sword again. The coldness of the sword appeared and shot out from the young man’s hand, cutting off the black-scarfed man’s arm.

The Qionglin Banquet continued. The dancers twirled in circles, their waists soft.

“Reporting! Your Majesty, there was an assassination attempt on the Bai Family’s girl. She has been saved by the Young Marquis!”

Emperor Wu Xuan frowned. “Which family is Miss Bai from?”

“Old General Bai Yuannian’s youngest daughter!”

Everyone was shocked.

Wasn’t that Bai Jingyuan’s sister, Bai Xianyu? She actually faced an assassination attempt near the Qionglin Banquet.

Everyone was in a state of panic.

Emperor Wu Xuan stood up in front of everyone. “Where is the commander of the Imperial Guards?”

“I’m here!”

“I order you to seal this place immediately. Not even a fly is to escape!”

“Understood!”

In Qionglin Garden.

Xie Xingyun, Bai Jingyuan, and an official in court clothes stood below. The two rows were divided accordingly for the civil and military officials. Emperor Wu Xuan sat in the middle and upper position. Everyone was discussing something.

“Even if that bandit is already dead, we still have to investigate! This time, it was someone else, the next time, it could be me!” Emperor Wu Xuan reprimanded. “You actually didn’t send anyone to guard such a place in close proximity. If something happens to Miss Bai under my watch, how can I face Old General Bai, who had sacrificed his life for the country?”

“Where is the minister of the Court of Judicial Review?!”

The man in court attire beside Xie Xingyun took a step forward. “I’m here.”

“I order you to investigate this matter thoroughly. Whether it’s an accident or not, you have to give me an explanation in five days!”

“The commander of the Imperial Guards, Liu Zhi, neglected his duty and almost made a huge mistake. From today onwards, he will be removed from his position and his entire family will be exiled. Deputy Commander Jiang Yuansheng will be promoted to Commander and cooperate with the Court of Judicial Review in the investigation!”

“Your subjects receive the decree.”

Emperor Wu Xuan glanced at Xie Xingyun in the middle and added, “After Bai Xianyu wakes up, ask her to cooperate with the Court of Judicial Review in investigating the case. Also, Minister Xie, since you were the first to arrive at the scene, after a day’s recuperation, you’ll also cooperate in the investigation of the case.”

“Your subject receives the decree.”

When Bai Xianyu woke up, she was already in her room.

“Miss, you’re awake!”

“Sister.” Bai Jingyuan frowned. “Are you feeling unwell?”

Bai Xianyu opened her eyes and shook her head.

Bai Jingyuan’s heart tightened. “Be good, Little Yu. Don’t be afraid. That person is already dead.”

Bai Xianyu nodded. “I’m not afraid.”

Bai Jingyuan’s heart ached. “Your Fourth Brother is still in the academy. When he comes out of school, I’ll tell him to come and see you.”

The girl on the bed responded with a “Hmm.” She was fair, tender, and obedient. For the first time, Bai Jingyuan regretted not letting Bai Xianyu learn martial arts. He also blamed himself for not letting anyone follow her.

“In the future, Bai Li will follow you,” Bai Jingyuan said. “He does things appropriately and is skilled in martial arts. If you encounter danger, he can also protect you.”

Bai Xianyu shook her head and frowned. Her throat was a little hoarse from swallowing too much water. “No…”

Bai Jingyuan said, “Brother has already decided. Let him follow you from tomorrow onwards.”

Bai Xianyu still wanted to speak, but Bai Jingyuan covered her mouth. “Alright, stop talking. We’ll talk when you’re better.”

Bai Xianyu was helpless and shrank into the blanket.

“If there’s nothing else, don’t disturb your Mistress.” Bai Jingyuan glanced at Green Pearl. “Little Yu, rest well. I still have something on, so I’ll leave first.”

Bai Xianyu nodded.

The door closed again. Bai Xianyu looked at Green Pearl and said, “Where are the clothes I wore yesterday?”

Green Pearl said, “I took it and got someone to wash it.”

“Where’s the soft jade?”

Green Pearl found it strange and thought of something. “Miss, the soft jade doesn’t seem to be on the clothes you wore previously.”

Bai Xianyu frowned slightly. Green Pearl helped her sit up. “Why isn’t it there?”

“When I helped you change, 1 checked if there was any item, but I didn’t find any soft jade.”

Green Pearl also knew the origin of this soft jade. Miss’ mother had given it to Miss since she was young, but it was taken away by the Old Madam of Longevity Hall later on. She even lied about losing it. In the end, when she went to look for it with Miss, they found out that the jade pendant had long been given to Bai Yu’er, who was still in Qingzhou at that time.

In the end, Miss personally found it in Bai Yu’er’s pocket. After obtaining the soft jade, Miss wore it every day.

Bai Xianyu took a sip of tea to moisten her throat. “Bring people to the White Horse Post to look for it. Whether it can be found or not, let me know.”

“Yes.”

It was fine if it dropped at the White Horse Post. That was already her territory. However, if it had fallen into the river, it would be a little difficult to find it back.

Although the river was not as rapid as in the summer, it was not slow either, so there was no telling where it would be washed to.

Bai Xianyu took another sip of tea and fell asleep.

Bai Jingyuan walked out of the courtyard and saw the young man leaning against the archway. His silver sword was standing at the side. When he saw him, his cold eyes paused. “How is she?”

“She has just woken up.”

Xie Xingyun looked into the Pear Fragrance Courtyard. White stamens had already decorated the pear trees, and there was a faint fragrance brushing against his face.

Bai Jingyuan glanced at him and remembered that he was Little Yu’s savior. His expression softened.. “Do you want to go and see her?”
