After changing clothes from the side hall, Gu Jinli did not go back to the main hall directly, but walked directly around the rockery and walked towards the pavilion in the bright moonlight.

"Miss, watch the road under your feet carefully." Ming Tao carried the lantern and respectfully followed behind Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli was thinking about when to find an opportunity to go out of the house and take down the teahouse on the main street, so she let out an absent-minded "um".

As she walked, she saw two sneaky figures in the reeds not far away, seemingly dragging something towards the pond.

"Miss......" Ming Tao also seemed to find out, and just wanted to open her mouth but was stopped by Gu Jinli raising her hand.

Signaling Ming Tao to extinguish the lantern, Gu Jinli gestured, and then the two cautiously followed up.

I saw a thin eunuch looking around with a thief's eyebrows, and said impatiently: "Don't rub it in, someone will come in a while!" ”

Another fat eunuch dragged the sack with difficulty, and complained in a low voice: "It's easy for you to say, and I don't look at how powerful this noisy person is!" ”

"Woo...... Woo......" The sack on the ground seemed to contain a person, struggling and kicking, and his mouth was making a muffled cry for help.

Gu Jinli looked at the sack that was not big, and guessed that the size of the people inside must not be high, maybe it was a poor little palace maid in the palace, and shook her head and left with Ming Tao helplessly.

"Okay, Eighth Prince, just accept your fate!" The fat eunuch kicked the sack a few times, and when the sack stopped moving, he sneered: "Although you have no grievances with the minions, but in the eyes of my master, the minions can only obey orders!" ”

Gu Jinli's body stiffened, and she immediately stopped at the fat eunuch's words, and Ming Tao's eyes widened in surprise.

Hinting to Ming Tao not to make a sound with his eyes, Gu Jinli pushed aside the reeds and took a few steps forward with bated breath.

It is said that when Concubine Liang gave birth to the eighth prince, she died of postpartum hemorrhage, so the emperor handed over the eighth prince to the queen to raise.

The eighth prince is smart, sensible and well-behaved, and is deeply loved by everyone in the palace, and he is only nine years old, who is so ruthless that he doesn't even let go of a child?

"Eighth Emperor, don't reincarnate in the emperor's family in the next life!" The fat eunuch took a deep breath, lifted the sack directly, and threw it into the pond with a "bang".

Immediately, he bent down to pick up a few stones and threw them into the pond.

"Come on, let's go!" The eunuch frowned, and the fat eunuch disappeared quickly.

Gu Jinli pursed her lips tightly, hurriedly pulled down Ming Tao's body and hid in the reeds, and when the footsteps of the two little eunuchs went away, she stood up with a "pout", took off her long skirt, and ran towards the pond without hesitation.

"Knock", Ming Tao saw Gu Jinli suddenly jump into the pond, and couldn't help but lose her voice: "Miss! ”

Gu Jinli was familiar with water in Nanshan in her early years, so she didn't feel much discomfort in the water, and quickly swam to the location of the sack sinking pond with her senses.

Soon, her hand touched the sack.

The thick rope was quickly untied under her flexible hands, and holding her breath, Gu Jinli grabbed the Eighth Prince by the collar and dragged him to the shore.

After Ming Tao lit the lantern, she took a handkerchief and trembled to wipe the water on Gu Jinli's body, "Xiao...... Miss...... Are you alright? ”

She wasn't really worried about Gu Jinli, but she was afraid that if Gu Jinli died in this place, she might not be able to get out of it with her little maid......

Gu Jinli saw that the Eighth Prince's face was pale, and her hand tested the breath between his nose, and she didn't care about anything else, she untied the Eighth Prince's clothes, crossed her hands hard, and pressed his chest.

"Murdered!" At this moment, suddenly a scream sounded from behind him.

Gu Jinli looked up and saw a group of people carrying lanterns, and the area around the originally dim pond was instantly lit up.
