Chapter 573 Extra Thank You Banquet (4)
The two men stood up suddenly and looked in the direction of the sound. They saw that the red lacquer railing in front of the lake in the courtyard had broken, and dozens of elegantly dressed ladies who had been gathered by the lake admiring the flowers and feeding the fish had all fallen into the lake...
The ladies kept waving their arms and flopping in the water, their clothes soaked, their hair disheveled, and they looked miserable...
Xie Zhiyan immediately searched the crowd for Jiang Wantang, seeing her standing peacefully by the lake, watching the ladies drown...
Even though they were at a distance, Xie Zhiyan knew without a doubt what kind of sly smile must be in the beautiful peach blossom eyes of the little fox who was doing mischief.
His little fox is not so easy to mess with...
Xie Zhiyan had a good idea, it was Jiang Wantang who did it.
Before a cup of tea...
The maidservant in the mansion said that there were several rare golden koi in the lake, which meant wealth and good fortune, which attracted many noble ladies to run to the lake to stop and watch.
However, Jiang Wantang took advantage of them leaning against the railing and seemingly raised his hand to gently tap the railing, but in fact, he used some internal force to cause the railing to break with a loud bang...
Not only that, she also took advantage of the chaos and quietly flicked a stone from her hand, hitting the foot of the noble lady Qi who took the lead in framing her, causing her to slip and pull down all the noble ladies around her, including Li Wanqing.
Aren’t these noble ladies always most concerned about their manners and reputation at banquets?
Then she would just destroy it for them...
This will save people from having too much free time and making trouble for others.
The lake was in chaos at the moment, but Jiang Wantang stood leisurely by the lake watching the show, feeling that this scene was much more interesting than admiring the flowers.
Xie Zhiyan, who was standing in the attic with his hands behind his back, raised the corners of his lips and looked at his little fox with a doting look.
At this time, in the lake,
The ladies were desperately flapping their arms and shouting "Help...", and some even pulled down other ladies who had stood up, without caring about their image at all.
However, the servants nearby and the young masters of the noble families who had rushed over after hearing the noise did not dare to rush to help. After all, spring clothes were thin, and most of the noble ladies were wearing light gauze skirts, and their figures would be vaguely visible if they fell into the water...
In this situation, if the man jumps into the water to save the girl in public, he will be responsible for the reputation of the girl who fell into the water; but if he does not save her, it is really against morality.
The people who went to call for help haven't arrived yet...
Just as everyone by the lake was looking at each other in confusion, they suddenly heard a silver bell-like laughter coming from behind the crowd. It sounded like the first cry of an oriole, or like a spring breeze blowing through willow branches, crisp and pleasant, instantly breaking the solemn atmosphere.
It attracted everyone's attention...
A stunning woman in red was seen walking towards them gracefully, like a fairy descending to earth. Her eyes were full of charm and allure, so stunning that all the men present were captivated by her.
But seeing the noble ladies who fell into the lake were furious...
It's a critical moment of life and death, and this vixen is still seducing men!
Jiang Wantang walked to the lakeside where the railing was broken, raised the corner of his mouth with a mocking arc, and said with a half-smile: "The water in this lake is not even as high as a person, can't you just stand up?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the pupils of the people standing by the lake widened instantly.
A noble lady who had fallen into the water stood up upon hearing this, and sure enough, the water in the lake was only up to her chest.
Someone was the first to shout out in surprise: "Really?! The water in this lake is not even as high as a person!"
The other ladies also stood up, looking embarrassed, standing dumbfounded in the lake, like the prisoners on death row in the water dungeon...
The ladies were extremely ashamed, their faces becoming more and more embarrassed...
In such an awkward atmosphere, a burst of laughter suddenly broke out from the crowd:
“Hahahaha…hahahaha…”
He was a young man from an aristocratic family, covering his face with a fan. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, everyone! I really can't help it..."
“Hahaha… That’s so funny!”
After saying this, the young man felt that he was being rude and could only leave with a half-suppressed smile.
At this time, the guards of the Princess Mansion rushed to the rescue with tools, and looking at the situation in front of them, they were also stunned...
The ladies were standing in the lake, wondering whether they should be saved or not.
At this moment, the noblewoman of the Qi family could no longer endure it. She struggled to climb ashore and walked angrily towards Jiang Wantang who was standing beside her...
Today, she dressed up specially in order to climb up the ladder of the Princess's Mansion, but now everything is ruined.
"You little bitch! It must be you!"
After saying that, she raised her hand in frustration and wanted to slap Jiang Wantang in the face.
However, Jiang Wantang's moves were faster and more agile than hers.
With a crisp "Pa!" sound, the noble lady of the Qi family was slapped directly into the lake by Jiang Wantang.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you bite me so casually!"
Jiang Wantang's aura was fully open, and he exuded a cold and arrogant aura.
Everyone present was terrified, especially the noble ladies who had arranged for her in the garden not long ago.
The noble lady of the Qi family climbed out of the lake. Her already messy face was now swollen on one side, and blood was oozing from the corner of her mouth.
Jiang Wantang looked at her coldly. It would be a waste not to beat up such a fool who came to her door.
The latter's eyes were filled with resentment and anger, and he looked at Jiang Wantang with a look that was as if it was filled with poison: "It was you who did this, otherwise why didn't you fall?"
Jiang Wantang sneered at her, pointed at the people standing around, and said sarcastically, "Why don't you say it was them?"
"You think I'm easy to bully, right?"
"Or you can show me the evidence. You dare to slander me without any evidence. Do you think your life is too long?"
The noble lady of the Qi family was about to say something in rebuttal when Old Lady Xie, having heard the news of the noble ladies falling into the water, hurried over from the flower hall with Princess Rongyi and the others...
"Tang girl!"
"Tang girl..." Old Madam Xie said anxiously as she walked.
