Chapter 180: Almost Drowned To Death

Liu Rushuang cursed furiously. Which douchebag pushed her into the water?

She splashed frantically to raise her head above the water.

“Help! Her Majesty has fallen into the lake!”

“Hurry, men!”

...

*Splash! Splash...*

In an instant, dozens of bodyguards jumped into the water and swam towards Liu Rushuang.

Liu Rushuang was just about to grab onto the railings of the limestone bridge to pull herself up quickly, when all of a sudden, a bodyguard in the water grabbed onto her ankle.

*Thump!*

Liu Rushuang fell into the water once again.

Liu Rushuang opened her eyes in the water and looked in the direction for the bodyguard who tried to kill her. However, there were several bodyguards all around, so she didn’t know which one it was.

Liu Rushuang tried hard to raise her head above water again, when suddenly, someone grabbed her ankle and yanked her deeper into the water.

“Hurry, save me! Which a**hole dragged me down into the water?” cursed Liu Rushuang furiously.

The bodyguard beneath the water didn’t stop but continued to drag her down.

“Grrrruuulug...” Before plunging into the water again, Liu Rushuang let out bubbles above water.

It’s all that tyrant’s fault. He made her so weak!

When Han Moze arrived with dozens of palace maids and eunuchs, he saw that Liu Rushuang’s head was still above water and both her hands were up in the air, struggling furiously.

Han Moze jumped in shock. He flew over to Liu Rushuang and pulled her up with one arm, then dragged her onto the bridge.

Consort Rou’s eyes widened. How was the Emperor able to rush over here?

She violently gritted her teeth. Such a shame! She was unable to drown that wench!

Liu Rushuang had fallen unconcious. Han Moze’s dark eyes were cold and ominous as he shot a glance at the consorts. He carried Liu Rushuang and flew off to the Dark Moon Palace.

Shuang’er, I’m sorry, I’m sorry...

For the entire journey, Han Moze felt extremely guilty.

*Cough cough...* Liu Rushuang was placed onto the bed, then immediately spat out water on the side of the bed and glared threateningly at Han Moze.

“Happy now?” she said through gritted teeth.

Han Moze silently pulled out a black pill.

Liu Rushuang smirked coldly, then swallowed the pill.

Soon enough, she felt her bones significantly relax and the inner breath started to revolve again from above the navel.

Liu Rushuang thought about the bodyguard who tried to kill her and coldly uttered, “I will defintiely replace the culprit who tried to kill me! There’s no way I will let him get off this easy!”

Han Moze slightly squinted and thought about it for a moment. “How did those bees fly towards you?”

Liu Rushuang furrowed her brows and thought about it for a moment. “Someone must definitely have something on them that bees like to eat.”

“I’ve already called everyone involved and gathered them outside. Come with me to question them,” said Han Moze with furrowed brows.

“Of course! I definitely want to know the identity of the one who cannot wait for me to die!” Liu Rushuang smirked wickedly with a cruel glint in her eyes.

Liu Rushuang put on her outer garments and stepped outside to see dozens of bodyguards standing in the back and three consorts with their maids standing in front.

Han Moze’s eerie voice started to ring. “The person who bumped into Her Majesty today, step forward!”

Consort Wei’s maid who stood behind her, stepped forward. She wore a yellow palace maid uniform with her hair combed into two buns and four pink beaded flowers. She was slightly chubby and her body and voice trembled like crazy as she spoke, “Y-your Majesty... I only bumped into Her Majesty the Empress because someone pushed me from behind. I really didn’t mean it. I beseech you to spare me.”

Consort Wei’s eyes quivered in fear, then stood forwards and nervously cried, “Your Majesty, Tao’er definitely isn’t capable of harming Her Majesty the Empress. Please do investigate this, Your Majesty.”
