Chapter 288 A Great Fate
The guard pressed on Jia Hu's chest, saying that if a person who has fallen into the water is rescued in time, this action can save their life.
To make it easier for the guards to rescue Jia Hu, Jia Daishan adjusted the way he was holding him, but he couldn't get any support in the water.
"Hu'er! Daishan, quickly hand Hu'er over here."
Fortunately, Jia Daihua and his guards arrived in time. The guards on the boat were very surprised to see Jia Hu, as they had actually found the young master here!
Jia Daishan lifted Jia Hu over, and Jia Daihua took him in one go.
Jia Daihua carefully and quickly took Jia Hu from him, with the guards carefully protecting him. Jia Daihua immediately positioned Jia Hu and began pressing on Jia Hu's chest.
"Cough cough cough, cough cough cough."
Jia Hu spat out some water and coughed a few times, but he was still dazed and fainted before he regained consciousness.
"It's good that you vomited it out, it's good that you vomited it out!"
Jia Daihua removed his hand and looked at Jia Hu's chest rising and falling again. He breathed a sigh of relief, and his hand began to tremble uncontrollably.
The quick-witted guards had already taken off their clothes and wrapped the young master up.
Jia Daishan had been watching Jia Daihua rescue Jia Hu from the side of the boat, and he was afraid that his action of boarding the boat would cause the small boat to rock and delay the rescue of Jia Hu.
Seeing that Jia Hu had regained his breathing, he raised his arm to wipe his eyes and was then pulled onto the small boat by the guards.
After Jia Daishan came up, he took Jia Hu from Jia Daihua's arms, wiped his hands on his clothes, and then put them under Jia Hu's nose. After feeling the breath, Jia Daishan's eyes immediately turned red again.
A man as imposing as a mountain, this iron-willed general never shed a tear, no matter how severe his injuries on the battlefield. Yet today, he wept several times.
Jia Daihua reached out and touched Jia Hu's small face; it was frighteningly cold.
"Go back immediately!"
Without being told, the two guards grabbed oars and rowed toward the imperial boat at top speed.
Although Young Master Hu was rescued and vomited water, his condition is certainly not optimistic given his young age and the fact that he had been soaking in the cold river water for so long.
The guards who had heard the whistle earlier also rushed over. When they were not far away, the head guard first saw the young master in the arms of the Duke of Rong, and then saw that everyone on the boat was wet.
The head guard frowned and gestured for the guards drying their clothes to take them off. Once they were close enough, he saluted, tossed the clothes over, and called out:
"Your Excellency, please change the young master's wet clothes with dry ones."
The head guard had been in the water before, and the other two guards on the ship were newly dispatched and knew how to swim. The other guard quickly took off his clothes and threw them over forcefully.
Jia Daihua caught the clothes to shield himself from the wind, while Jia Daishan quickly stripped Jia Hu of his wet clothes and wrapped him in dry clothes.
The head guard ordered other small boats to escort Jia Daishan and his entourage back to the imperial ship. The emperor received news that Jia Hu had been found, but the young master was still unconscious.
The Emperor said happily:
"It's good that the person has been saved. Prepare a house and get everything ready. The imperial physicians are all waiting."
Upon hearing the news that Jia Hu had been rescued, Situ Minghe wiped away his tears and said:
“Zhen’er, Hu’er has been found. Wake up soon.”
Situ Yi felt a little relieved; thankfully, the person had been rescued.
The other princes also stood happily behind the emperor, though it was unclear what they were thinking.
The Seventh Prince watched the fireworks fill the sky, gritting his teeth while feigning joy. Although he feared being implicated, he was still somewhat disappointed to hear that Jia Hu was alive. That kid really has a lucky life!
