She said softly .
Gong Sheng found it both baffling and funny, at first, he was planning to demote all of them! Those who donât obey him, why would he still have them by his side? But Gong Yimo didnât look like she was joking either, itâs no big deal, heâll just look for another person to lead the Forbidden Army.
So he nodded.
âSecond, you canât blame Gong Jue!â Gong Yimo said solemnly, âGong Jue did what he did for me. Weâre really close to each other, so you canât blame him for it!â
This point made Gong Cheng hesitate.
That is because, just a second ago, he wanted to dismiss Gong Jue of his position first, it was too dangerous, his influence over the Forbidden Army!
But now Gong Yimo was asking him to not touch Gong Jue, isnât this just putting him in a tough spot? Which emperor could possibly tolerate this?
Gong Yimo naturally knew what he was thinking, and said sadly.
âFather, youâre being oversensitive, so when others mention something, you start to doubt me. Whenever you canât control me, youâll want to kill me.â
When she said the word kill, she said it in a very self-deprecating manner, referring to the fact that she barely escaped from death.
âNow, youâre also doubting Gong Jue.â
She couldnât help but raise her gaze and asked, âArenât you clear about what kind of a person I am? Arenât you clear about how Gong Jue treats you? In your heart, have you really trusted anyone?â
Her tone was quick, with a hint of aggressiveness, forcing her words to hum in his ears
Has he not trusted anyone?
He
Gong Yimo smiled and shook her head, âEven if the world accuses me, scolds me, insults me, and humiliates me, I donât even feel that bad! But if you donât even believe me, whatâs the point of staying here?â
Her words were simple, but for so many years, no one has ever said something like this to Gong Cheng!
As the emperor, he has to be more sensitive and alert. Does he need someone he truly trusts?
At this moment, Gong Jue said at the right time.
âFather, I have no ambition to be emperor. Since weâre at the altar now, I swear by my life that in the whole of my life, Iâll not greed over your throne.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
He just wanted to be a prince that no one could order around, and run away with his sister.
Gong Yimoâs and Gong Jueâs words both pressured Gong Cheng, it made him hold his head in pain. In the end, Changxi had to help him.
âYour Majesty, the Founding Emperor once said, as the emperor, he has to know how to use his people well, and once he uses them, he shouldnât doubt them. They are all your children! Theyâre all so well-behaved, what do you have to worry about?â
âIâm stuck,â Gong Sheng said suddenly, not knowing whether he was telling others or telling himself. He sighed, âOkay! Moâer, your second request, I agree to it.â
Gong Yimo smiled, âThis third request is for me, I want to personally send Longcheng Tingxue back to her country!â
She said to everyone, âThis mess started because of me, so I should be the one to settle it. I will not cause displeasure between the two countries because of my own personal affairs, so Iâll deal with it myself!â
Gong Jue suddenly glanced at Gong Yimo, but he didnât say anything.
Gong Yimoâs words were naturally what Gong Cheng had hoped for, âGood child, I give you my permission! Itâs just that Da Yu is the right one here, you just need to demand for justice, even if the relationship breaks, Da Yu and I are not afraid!â
âThank you Father!â
Gong Cheng smiled tiredly, âIf thatâs the case, Moâer, why donât you wear the ceremonial crown? And Cheâer, you too! Just because the crown prince says itâs not right, then itâs not right? Next time, if you do that again, Iâll for sure punish you! Now, recrown Moâer!â
