Chapter 136 Who dragged them into the water?
"Fairy sister, my feet hurt so much." Shen Yubao was still in shock and pulled up his trouser legs while speaking.
The purple bruised palm print looked so sharp that it pierced Yi Qianhuan's eyes.
"Mother, I have an identical mark." Yi Mobao said, pulling up his trouser legs to reveal the distinct mark on his ankle.
"I saw it. Mobao, Yubao, don't be anxious now, just tell me patiently what happened." Yi Qianhuan softened his voice and asked softly.
Yi Mobao started to recall first.
"The pleasure boat was suddenly hit hard, and Yubao and I were thrown out of the boat at the same time. I subconsciously grabbed Yubao's hand, and then I felt that we both sank into the water at the same time."
"I could have swum to shore with Yubao, but as soon as I caught Yubao, I felt something hidden in the water, pulling Yubao down."
"Then I felt a hand grabbing my ankle and pulling me down. When I resisted, Yubao was taken away. I felt a chill running through my body and became unable to move. I don't remember what happened after that. When I vomited the water and woke up, I found that my mother had rescued me to the shore."
Shen Yubao nodded in agreement and said, "My memory is similar to Brother Mobao's. However, I lost consciousness earlier than Brother Mobao. When I fell into the water and felt something grabbing my ankle, I was already half conscious and couldn't feel what happened."
"Yubao, then why are you so afraid of Princess Lianhe?" Yi Qianhuan clearly saw that when she mentioned Princess Lianhe, Shen Yubao's face turned pale again.
Shen Yubao's white nose was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he threw himself into Yi Qianhuan's arms: "I was being dragged into the water, and I thought I was dead. But I was too unwilling to accept that, so I wanted to see clearly who was dragging me to death..."
Yi Qianhuan waited patiently for Shen Yubao to adjust his mood and speak complete sentences.
Shen Yubao raised his head and looked at Yi Qianhuan with clear eyes: "Then, I looked down and saw a snow-white shadow in the dark river water below. That was Princess Lianhe."
"How could Princess Lianhe come out from under your feet? If she wanted to save you, she should come from above you, or from your left and right, right?" Yi Mobao remembered clearly that he and Shen Yubao fell into the water at the first moment.
And after they fell into the water, they were constantly being pulled underwater by something strange.
This means that the two of them must have been sinking faster than the others. Unless Princess Lianhe entered the water first, it would be impossible for her to sink deeper than them.
However, if Princess Lianhe went into the water first and waited, then she must have stayed in the water for a long time.
"Mom, is it possible for a normal person to hold his breath in water for such a long time?" Yi Mobao said this, but the expression on his little face looked more solemn.
"Could it be that the handprints on my and brother Mobao's ankles were actually left by Princess Lianhe?" Shen Yubao's little face turned even paler.
"Mother, do you think there is something unclean on Princess Lianhe's body?" Yi Mobao moved closer to Shen Yubao and patted his shoulder gently to comfort him.
Yi Qianhuan recalled the scene when he saw Princess Lianhe just now: "It's hard to say. But there is one thing I can be sure of, that is, Princess Lianhe's fate is indeed very good. Logically speaking, she would not encounter these strange things."
Seeing the two little guys looking at him at the same time, Yi Qianhuan's voice became a little softer: "Of course I believe what you said to me. This matter still needs to be investigated. Fortunately, you two are safe now. From now on, you should take good care of yourself and don't think too much."
"Fairy sister, I feel so tired now. Can you hold me while sleeping?" Shen Yubao seemed particularly fragile at this time. He had already leaned his little head on Yi Qianhuan's chest while speaking.
Yi Qianhuan agreed immediately and held Shen Yubao in his arms to coax him.
Listening to Yi Qianhuan humming an unknown tune, Shen Yubao could smell the faint fragrance of Yi Qianhuan every time he breathed in.
Fairy sister’s embrace is so soft and warm.
Just like a mother's embrace.
Holding Shen Yubao in his arms with one hand, Yi Qianhuan did not ignore Yi Mobao and let him lean on him to rest.
They returned all the way to Pingyang Marquis Mansion, and Yi Qianhuan and Nanny Gui, who had rushed over, picked up the children and returned to Qingzhu Courtyard.
The children were frightened, so they slept very soundly and did not wake up until Yi Qianhuan put them on the couch.
However, they seemed to have encountered nightmares in their sleep. They frowned, waved their arms, and even uttered a few words in their sleep.
Yi Qianhuan lay with them for a while, and whispered the Heart Cleansing Mantra in their ears several times.
About half an hour later, the two children's restless reactions improved and they finally fell into a deep sleep.
Yi Qianhuan left the room early the next morning.
The children had already woken up. Yi Qianhuan first asked Nanny Gui to help them wash and then had breakfast with them.
Yi Mobao was eating a delicious breakfast and said, "Mom, Yubao and I feel much better today. We want to go out for a walk."
"You just had an accident yesterday, so don't go out by yourself. Let Liuli accompany you." Yi Qianhuan picked up some dishes for them and chuckled as he reminded them, "Be careful when you go out. When you are done shopping in the afternoon, go to Jiuxiangju and order some dishes. I will then go find you to have lunch together."
Yi Mobao and Shen Yubao agreed at the same time.
After breakfast, Yi Qianhuan saw Yi Mobao and Shen Yubao off.
Although Liuli was there to serve them, Yi Qianhuan was still worried: "Madam Gui, have your guards go up with the two of them and carefully protect the safety of the two children."
"I have already prepared it in advance, please rest assured, Miss." Nanny Gui paused and continued, "The governor also sent a lot of tonics, and our people have already gone to count them."
Yi Qianhuan walked back to Qingzhu Courtyard, and Ji Chilian's face appeared in his mind: "Got it. Next, tell the servants to keep their voices down. They were frightened yesterday and need to rest..."
"Are you okay, sister? I heard that you were in trouble yesterday, so I came to visit you!"
Seeing that Lin Wanyue walked into Qingzhu Courtyard at the top of her voice before he could finish his words, a look of displeasure flashed across Yi Qianhuan's eyes.
Not wanting Lin Wanyue to get close to the children, Yi Qianhuan walked towards Lin Wanyue quickly.
