Shen Chuwei stood steady; otherwise, she reckoned she might have fallen into the water with Xueyan just now.
Shuiyao, terrified, screamed from the shore, "Princess, Princess, someone, come quick, save the Princess!"
Shuiyao angrily pointed at Shen Chuwei, "Why did you push my ma—"
Before she could finish, she saw Shen Chuwei jump into the water.
Shuiyao was dumbfounded, not expecting Shen Chuwei to leap into the water.
Concubine Xu was startled and shouted hastily, "Someone, come quickly! Lady Shen has fallen into the water, pushed by Concubine Xue!"
Shuiyao, infuriated, stammered, "You, you, you, you're talking nonsense, it was clearly Lady Shen who pushed my mistress into the water."
Concubine Xu stepped forward and slapped her twice, "You, a mere maid, dare to point at me and speak? Who gave you such courage?"
Though not much of a martial artist, Concubine Xu had some strength in her hands, and her two slaps left Shuiyao seeing stars, unable to recover for a half a day.
