After that, she looked at Gong Che's pained expression and sighed.
"The Liu Family is useless … Among the descendants, the best one is a Jinshi. Father's death is too much of a blow to the Liu Family. Even if the canal can bring the Liu Family a lot of money, it will be in the future. As for GongYimo … Will she wait for you?"
The analysis was very thorough, but it made Gong Che feel a chill in his bones … His body swayed and he almost couldn't stand …
… Why did it have to be like this? Why were these people and these things all obstructing him? Obviously … He only wanted GongYimo …
He closed his eyes and his sorrowful expression made the Empress' heart ache. But she couldn't be soft-hearted, so she took a sip of tea and whispered with an inexplicable expression.
"GongYimo … She's almost fourteen, right?"
"Mother!"
Gong Dai clenched his fists tightly! He suddenly raised his head and his eyes were bloodshot. He looked very frightening!
"Must it be now? Choosing a concubine in front of Mo'er?! I can't do it … I really can't do it … "
Every word seemed to be squeezed out from the gap between his teeth! His words made the Empress think deeply. Suddenly, she realized something and covered her mouth to laugh.
"My silly son … GongYimo … She still doesn't know about your feelings, right?"
Gong Che didn't say anything. How could he dare to let her know?
"And you also know that your feelings … are against the world … So, why don't you go and ask her?"
Gong Che looked at her helplessly, "Ask her what?"
The Empress smiled, "Silly child … Mother is naturally doing it for your own good. You go and ask GongYimo now … Tell her everything. If … If she is also interested in you, won't it be a happy ending? All the problems will be solved. "
The Empress's words made Gong Che's heart tremble. But his reason told him that GongYimo would not agree …
Seeing Gong Che's pale and complicated expression, the Empress was an experienced person after all, so she added another dose of ruthless medicine.
"Even if she is not interested in you now, you should at least let her know your feelings. As long as she doesn't directly reject you, then you still have a chance, right? You can tell her your current difficulties and let her wait for you. If she is completely not interested in you, there's no point in you persisting like this, right? "
Her words made Gong Che's heart was restless … God knows, he had wanted to do this for a long time, but he didn't dare to do so, because he felt that GongYimo would definitely not accept him! But … But what if?
… What if … What if Mo'er has a trace of good feelings for him?
This kind of thought thought of this idea. He felt fear, panic, anticipation, and sweetness …
He thought that if Gong Yi Mo also had the heart … no, no … as long as she didn't directly refuse him …
Then he could wait … Reject the marriage alliance and continue to wait. Yes, he should have done this long ago!
The Empress said at the right time, "Mo'er is now in Qi Manor, right? And Gong Dai … He should be on his way. Now … you might be able to see GongYimo … "
Gong Che couldn't hold it in any longer. He bid farewell to the Empress and hurried towards Qi Manor …
Seeing him leave in such a hurry, the Empress held her heart and sighed. Her son had already turned into a demon. He loved someone to the point that he was like a demon! But it didn't matter. She would pull him back bit by bit, even if she had to give up everything!
When he left, Gong Dai felt uneasy.
He hesitated for a moment. After thinking about it, bringing GongYimo into the palace would make him even more uneasy. So he could only order people to watch over them and not let anyone in! Finally … he thought for a moment, and then added another sentence … Not even the princess!
After giving his orders, he leapt onto his horse and glanced at Qi Manor … His eyes gradually turned from cold to satisfied …
He didn't want much. As long as he could hide GongYimo by his side, it would be enough …
After he left, Gong Che walked out from the shadows after a long time. He glanced at the Vermillion Gate with a deep fervor in his eyes.
Gong Dai couldn't keep Mo'er locked up, this was something he was very clear about.
So he took out something from his sleeve. It was something that looked like a firework. If GongYimo was here, she would definitely remember it! At that time, while she was concocting the poison, she had also casually made some small things. This sound signal flare was one of the finished products …
GongYimo was originally reading in the courtyard when she suddenly heard a strange sound. She jerked her head up and indeed saw the red firework exploding in the sky during the day …
This was the signal flare that she had given to Gong Che!
Although she now had a strange feeling towards Gong Che, when the signal flare went off, she couldn't help but go take a look. She hoped that he hadn't encountered some trouble. Although it wasn't likely that he was in the Imperial City, what was the reason for him to set off a signal flare near Qi Manor?
With this thought, she hurriedly went out. She didn't expect to be stopped at the main entrance. GongYimo even knew this person. His name was Lo Qi and he was Gong Dai's number one guard.
GongYimo was somewhat puzzled but still asked politely, "I'm wearing a scarf and going out for a stroll. Why are you stopping me?"
Lo Qi couldn't see GongYimo's face and could only reply militarily.
"His Highness has ordered! No one is allowed to enter or leave! "
Hearing that it was Gong Dai's order, GongYimo smiled and waved her hand carelessly.
"Since it's Gong Dai's order … don't worry … I'm fine!"
But at this moment, Lo Qi looked up at GongYimo and said, "Including the Princess!"
His words caused GongYimo's smile to freeze on her face. It was a little strange, but because she was wearing a scarf, they couldn't see it.
"Are you guys … going to put me under house arrest? It can't be? Gong Dai wouldn't do that. Are you guys mistaken? "
Lo Qi lowered his head and said, "That's right. Including the Princess, no one is allowed to enter or leave this place!"
His words made GongYimo feel strange. Why would Gong Dai give such an order? How could this be?
But she didn't have time to argue with them. She muttered, "I must go out today! Let's see what you can do to me! Hmph! "
With that, she strode forward!
At this moment, two swords crossed in front of her and Lo Qi's cold voice was still beside her.
"Princess … don't make things difficult for us …"
This time, GongYimo was really angry! How could Gong Dai give the order to lock her up? Even if she was in danger of being discovered if she went out now, it shouldn't be to this extent, right? Don't forget, she was pretty good at fighting!
Her face turned cold, "… I don't believe that you guys would dare to stop me from entering my brother's residence!"
With that, she didn't even look at the swords and walked straight ahead.
Those people didn't dare to stop her and kept retreating. Lo Qi couldn't do anything and could only helplessly watch GongYimo leave.
"Little Qi, quickly go into the palace and report to His Highness!"
Little Qi was anxious, "Brother Luo, why did you let the Princess go! Your martial arts are so good, you might not be a match for the Princess. If we don't stop her, how are we going to explain to His Highness when he comes back? "
Looking at Little Qi's silly look, Lo Qi sighed with a straight face and looked in the direction GongYimo left.
"You just have to remember that if we hurt the Princess, His Highness won't let us off."
