Chapter 1654 No one can solve it
Shen Xiangjun didn't know why she was so resistant to marrying someone else.
She looked at Zhou Shiyue, feeling even more distressed, and said, "I don't know why, but if you help me untangle this, I really won't bother Prince Jin anymore."
Before Lu Zhaoling could speak, Yin Changxing said in a deep voice from the side, "You don't need to beg her, because no one can untie this marriage thread now, unless you cut it by brute force."
"But if you cut it with brute force, both of you will be seriously injured. It's no use begging. We won't do such a thing for you. Go find whoever tied the marriage thread for you."
Shen Xiangjun suddenly turned around and rushed into the cabin.
She ran while shouting, "Luo Qiu, come out! Come out now! You promised to help me, why did things turn out like this? Why? Come out now, Luo Qiu!"
Hearing her yelling and shouting, Lu Zhaoling and Yin Changxing exchanged a glance. They suddenly realized that Luo Qiu was indeed behind this. Just what abilities did Luo Qiu possess to be able to tie Shen Xiangjun's marriage knot?
But Lu Zhaoling and the others didn't find it hard to understand why Luo Qiu would help Shen Xiangjun.
After all, she is now considered Prime Minister Shen's concubine.
It was probably because she became Prime Minister Shen's concubine that she no longer needed to dance and perform to support herself, which is why she used this painted boat for official business.
Even if something goes wrong, the ship is broken, so be it, since she can no longer use it.
The pleasure boat rocked violently again at that moment.
Zhou Shiyue's legs have now returned to normal. It seems that although the medicine worked quickly, its main purpose was not to completely cripple his legs, so the effects of the medicine wore off quickly.
If he hadn't had a protective amulet with him, he would already be in trouble.
He stood up and grabbed Lu Zhaoling's wrist with his other hand.
"Junior Brother Yin and the others caught an evil spirit in the water. Could tonight's events be related to that evil spirit?"
“That evil spirit must have been found by Luo Qiu,” Lu Zhaoling said in a low voice. “I don’t know if they made a deal, or if Luo Qiu has the ability to command such a powerful evil spirit to her advantage.”
Regardless of which one it is, Zhou Shiyue must leave the painted boat first.
They're probably going to have another fierce fight next, and he'll easily become a target here.
"Grandma, you take him away first."
Lu Zhaoling immediately told Sheng San Niangzi, "Send him back to the Prince's Mansion, and don't let him wait on the shore."
Just as Zhou Shiyue was about to speak, Lu Zhaoling noticed and immediately spoke first, "They came for you tonight. If you don't leave, and something really happens, will the wedding still be held tomorrow?"
Her tone was very serious.
It's as if it means, "If you don't leave, I won't get married tomorrow."
This has struck Zhou Shiyue right where it hurts.
He had no choice but to agree.
"I'm going back. But you have to promise me..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Zhaoling guessed what he was going to say, and she immediately said, "I will definitely be back before you go to pick up your bride tomorrow morning."
No one could stop her from getting married.
Zhou Shiyue gritted his teeth, "Third Lady, take me ashore."
Normally, even if the boat is already in the middle of the lake, Zhou Shiyue would still have a way to use his light-footed skills to return to the shore.
But at this critical moment, with waves rising on the lake and a dangerous fog covering its surface, he really couldn't go back on his own.
Madam Sheng grabbed him and said to Lu Zhaoling, "Master, wait for me. I'll take the prince back and come right away."
She felt that this was a big event, and it definitely wouldn't be possible without her.
Lu Zhaoling waved her hand, "Okay, go and come back quickly."
Sheng San Niangzi dragged Zhou Shiyue out of the cabin.
They saw what was happening outside.
The moonlight was completely obscured by dark clouds, and the night was now pitch black. The lake was turbulent, with waves rising one after another, and there was a faint, muffled sound coming from the water.
From this perspective, the entire Autumn Lake looks like a terrifying behemoth, rolling and about to pounce, ready to devour all the boats and people on the lake at any moment.
"How terrifying!" Even Madam Sheng couldn't help but exclaim.
"Didn't I tell you to go and come back quickly? Get me ashore right now," Zhou Shiyue said.
Madam Sheng glanced at him and noticed that he had somehow removed the blindfold and was still able to remain calm despite the situation. She was somewhat impressed by him.
"Your Highness, putting everything else aside, your courage alone is more than enough."
"Otherwise, why would Ah Ling have taken a liking to me?"
Madam Sheng pursed her lips and quickly led him towards the shore.
Being suspended in mid-air, looking down at the lake, felt even more terrifying.
Aoki, with his sharp eyes, noticed that Zhou Shiyue seemed to be floating in mid-air, drifting towards the other side of the shore, and knew that it must be Sheng San Niangzi with him at this moment.
He quickly looked at Prime Minister Shen.
Fortunately, Prime Minister Shen's attention was diverted to the lake, and he hadn't been staring at the painted boat.
They had already retreated some distance.
Even though there was no danger while standing on the shore, the sight of the lake up close filled them with fear, so they all retreated without prior arrangement.
Prime Minister Shen stared at the lake for a while, feeling a tremor in his heart. He quickly looked at the painted boat on the lake, but it was too far away for him to see what was happening on it.
Just now, Shen Xiangjun was shouting Luo Qiu's voice loudly, but Prime Minister Shen didn't hear it.
Prime Minister Shen looked at the waves on the lake, feeling utterly helpless.
For now, he can only pin his hopes on Luo Qiu. After all, Luo Qiu is still on the pleasure boat, and he doesn't know if she has succeeded in getting things done.
If they can indeed tie Xiangjun and Prince Jin to each other tonight, then their plan will be considered a success.
Even if some unexpected things happen, we can find a way to suppress them later.
Even if Prime Minister Shen wanted to leave at this moment, he couldn't, because Lin Rong, Lord Chen, and the guards from the Prince of Jin's residence were all around him.
However, there was nothing he could do; the others weren't much better off than him.
At this point, even if there were boats available, no one dared to sail towards the center of the lake, because no one knew what might be in the lake.
Prime Minister Shen's face was now extremely dark. He looked at Lin Rong and asked, "Lord Lin, shouldn't the strange phenomena here fall under the jurisdiction of the Dali Temple?"
Why won't they leave?
Lin Rong countered, "Then shouldn't it be under Prime Minister Shen's jurisdiction? After all, you are the Prime Minister of the country, and you should be involved in any events that occur in the capital."
Prime Minister Shen calmly replied, "I will certainly report to the Emperor in detail at court tomorrow. If Lord Lin and Lord Chen know anything, they should also explain it truthfully tomorrow."
Lord Chen glanced at them, too lazy to answer. What time is it? Why bother with such verbal sparring?
