Guan Ning remained unmoved, tearing the mutton with his mouth, and said lightly: "Guess."

As soon as these words came out, Eunuch Fu flew into a rage: "You lowly thing, you're looking for death!"

call!

The whisk in his hand smashed down heavily.

boom!

Guan Ning held it firmly with his left hand.

"Let go, let go!" Eunuch Fu was furious and tried to pull out: "Dog slave, do you want to die?"

Guan Ning smiled faintly: "It seems that Eunuch Fu still doesn't understand the situation clearly."

As soon as these words were spoken, Eunuch Fu felt an inexplicable chill on his back. The surroundings were eerily quiet, which suddenly gave him a bad premonition.

"Someone come, someone come!" he screamed.

boom!

The next second, Yu Dilong covered his mouth tightly from behind. He struggled hard but couldn't move at all. Fear and anxiety were written all over his eyes.

Guan Ning jumped off the bridge and approached with a smile: "Old man, you have come to this day too?"

"Wuwuwu..." Eunuch Fu struggled.

"You, who are you?"

Guan Ning said calmly, "I asked someone to pass a message to Concubine Ya, and you interfered. What message did you pass on?"

In an instant, Eunuch Fu understood everything. He felt guilty and his heart was broken. The instinct for survival made him struggle with all his might, and he bit Yu Dilong's palm.

Yu Dilong felt pain and accidentally exposed his mouth.

"Help, help!"

"There's an assassin!" Eunuch Fu took the opportunity to shout.

Guan Ning's eyes turned cold and he punched out decisively.

boom!

"Puff..." Eunuch Fu vomited a large amount of bile, and his knees slammed heavily on the ground. He was in so much pain that he couldn't even make a sound.

"Old thing, you're looking for death!" Yu Dilong cursed angrily and was about to draw his dagger.

"Stop." Guan Ning tried to stop him. If he used a knife, it would be considered murder, which would attract the investigation of the imperial guards. His plan was to create the illusion of drowning.

Just when he was about to do something, an accident happened.

Eunuch Fu's voice just now was sharp. Although there was no one here, it was heard.

The clanging sound of iron armor could be heard faintly, and the torches were getting closer and closer, approaching the lotus pond.

"what happened?"

"It sounds like someone is shouting for help."

"Go over and have a look."

"Yes!"

Not good! Guan Ning frowned.

Eunuch Fu looked surprised, like a drowning man grasping at the last straw.

Guan Ning tensed up, there was nowhere to hide, so he made a quick decision: "People are coming, hurry, flood!"

He grabbed Eunuch Fu with one hand and jumped off the bridge.

boom!

Two splashes of water appeared, and by the time the imperial guards rushed over to check, the water surface had almost returned to calm.

More than a dozen imperial guards searched.

"no one."

"There's no one here either."

"That's weird. I clearly heard a sound just now. Could it be haunted?"

"Shut up, be careful what you say. Maybe it's just a cat."

"Yes."

One of the imperial guards, unwilling to give up, placed his hands on the small bridge and looked down at the lotus pond, but the water was calm and the view was unclear due to the lotus leaves.

In addition, it was pitch black at night, and he looked for a long time but couldn't see anything.

"Forget it, let's go. I must be hallucinating."

"Oh, it makes the brothers so nervous. This is the imperial palace, who dares to come?"

"Yes."

The group slowly left, but what they didn't notice was that, gurgle, gurgle... layers of bubbles were constantly emerging from the lotus pond they had just observed, and they were getting bigger and bigger, creating huge ripples.

It seems like something is happening under the water.

In the lotus pond less than two meters deep, Shui Fu struggled and kicked frantically. His will to survive made him shout, but when he opened his mouth in the water, he could only choke on the water.

Guan Ning's black hair was flying as he held him down in the water, while Yu Dilong held his legs tightly.

Eunuch Fu was unable to break free and could only watch the imperial guards on the ground walking further and further away. His pupils gradually became filled with despair, and his legs, which had been kicking wildly, gradually lost their strength.

After a few breaths, his pupils dilated, his old and ugly face turned pale, and he looked like a water ghost in the water with disheveled hair.

puff……

Guan Ning and Yu Dilong broke through the water and took deep breaths.

"Hu, hu, hu!"

"I didn't expect this old guy to be so strong. He almost broke free."

Guan Ning glanced at the sleeping corpse floating out of the water: "When people are trying to survive, their adrenaline will surge and their strength will be much greater. It's okay to die."
