Su Qing was right. Something happened to Ji Shuisheng on his way to Tartan.
Before he could enter Ta City, he saw Princess Saiya riding a horse from Ta City toward him.
She seemed to be crying. She whipped the horse with all her might and the horse she was sitting on let out a series of painful cries. The snow was so deep, the horse ran so fast, and the horse's misstep threw out Princess Saiya.
Ji Shuisheng watched as Princess Saiya fell from the sky onto a hill, rolled into the snow, and disappeared.
He did not want to meddle in other people's business and rode away, but the palace maids who had caught up with her saw him and stopped Ji Shuisheng from leaving. They knelt on the ground and begged him to save her.
