At this moment, the flowers and leaves lost their color. The world seemed to have become an enormous splash-ink painting, and she was the only color!
Gong Che pressed his chest. Recently, this strange feeling had become more and more frequent, so frequent that he would find all kinds of excuses to run to the hougong, but he would instantly calm down when he saw her.
But most of the time, as long as she took the initiative, that strange feeling would overturn and drown him, and it would take a long time for him to recover.
Her foot tapped the bow of the boat, and the bow of the boat shot towards the shore like a sword. She stood at the bow of the boat, facing the wind. She was so elegant, as if she would be blown away by the wind at any moment.
Gong Che felt this way. He looked at her without blinking, but saw the other smile sweetly at him.
When the boat touched the shore, a group of palace servants from the Hall of Supreme Harmony met them and hurried over to bow.
"Greetings to Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Princess."
The young eunuch at the front was called Yongfu. After he smiled and bowed, he said to GongYimo, "Princess is going to find His Highness the Ninth Prince. His Highness the Ninth Prince went to pick a war horse to accompany him, and hasn't returned yet."
GongYimo didn't regret it and waved her hand to have him leave.
Why was he gone for so long, she still had things to tell him … …
After he left, GongYimo looked at Gong Che and suddenly thought of something. Her brows rose again, and her bright eyes looked at the other, "Is Crown Prince gege busy returning to the fu?"
The palace servant accompanying the Crown Prince wanted to speak, but the Crown Prince shook his head, "No."
GongYimo smiled, "Then is Crown Prince gege willing to go sightseeing with me?" She pointed at the small boat that was like a willow leaf, "The lotus flowers in the lake are blooming beautifully. We can dive into the flowers and leaves to enjoy the scenery, wouldn't it be beautiful?"
The palace servant behind the Crown Prince saw that the boat could only hold two people. How could he guarantee the Crown Prince's safety? Just as he was about to refuse, he received a light glance from the Crown Prince. He lowered his head slightly and didn't speak.
Seeing that he agreed, GongYimo was satisfied. She personally reached out her hand and bowed like a gentleman. When Gong Che saw that hand, he was slightly stunned. In the end, he subconsciously grasped that white and delicate hand and stepped onto the small boat.
At this time, the boat swayed slightly. Gong Che couldn't stand steadily, and GongYimo held him tightly, standing in front of him................................... of strength.....................
Gong Yi Mo didn't notice his abnormality. She just smiled and tapped her toes. The boat shot towards the center of the lake like a sword. At this time, the sky had already begun to darken, and large patches of clouds covered the sky. The two sat opposite each other, enjoying the gentle breeze. They were so comfortable that they almost fell asleep.
........................................................ of...........
"There are flowers and water. How can there be no wine?"
The boat gradually steadied. GongYimo broke the silence with a smile. She took out a pouch from her sleeve. With a pop, she pulled out the wine cork. A mesmerizing aroma of wine wafted over. Gong Che knew it was the Emperor's wine cellar that had been stored for eighty years.
She impatiently raised her head and drank a mouthful. Her actions were natural and unrestrained. Her throat moved slightly when she swallowed, and the golden liquid that flowed down the corner of her mouth, under the fiery red clouds, mesmerized Gong Che's eyes. He even felt thirsty.
At this time, GongYimo sighed, "Good wine!"
She wiped her mouth and slyly glanced at Gong Che, "This is the aged wine that I spent a lot of effort to steal from under Eunuch Chang Xi's nose. How is it? Does Crown Prince gege want to try?"
At this time, as she spoke, the wings of the butterfly hair ornament on her head fluttered as if it was about to take flight. It was truly unparalleled.
Looking at her small white jade hand that was holding the wine pouch, Gong Che mysteriously took it and unconsciously drank a mouthful.
This wine was clearly for women to drink. It wasn't spicy, but it was mellow and fragrant.
But this was what she had just drunk … They had shared the same wine pouch!
This delayed reaction made Gong Che's face redden. He took another mouthful to cover it up before saying, "It really is good wine!"
GongYimo smiled faintly and rubbed her hands together.
"Crown Prince gege, there's a good saying. When you eat someone, you have to be soft-spoken. I, your imperial sister, kidnapped you onto this boat because I have something to ask of you."
"Oh?" At this time, Gong Che didn't pay attention to what she said. He only subconsciously responded, "What is it?"
Seeing that he was direct, GongYimo also didn't beat around the bush.
"To tell you the truth, in the capital, your imperial sister, although I, have never left the palace, I have borrowed the hands of others and have many shops. Does Your Highness know?"
Gong Che glanced at her, a little surprised. In reality, people like them had many assets. After all, there were many things that they needed money for. But GongYimo was a princess. Even if she was intelligent, she didn't have a consort mother to plan for her. Being able to have such foresight and put it into action, Gong Che couldn't help but look at her in a higher light.
GongYimo frowned at this time and asked in a small voice, "That's the problem. Today, my subordinate reported that there's a strange matter around the capital. I'm sure that Crown Prince gege has also heard about it."
She raised her eyebrows slightly and continued, "Around last month, in the grain stores around the capital, the lowest grade rice, guliang, has been in short supply. Moreover, even old rice has been bought at a low price. The amount is so large that even if their actions are hidden, this little sister still noticed it."
When she mentioned this matter, Gong Che's expression became serious.
At first, he thought that this imperial sister of his had opened a few cosmetics shops at most. Even if she did, the business wouldn't be too big. However, this matter was only reported yesterday by his subordinate, and today, his imperial sister told him about it. It seemed that this imperial sister of his was quite capable and had a lot of assets.
GongYimo was still smiling as he stared at her. Now that she was young, her smile was sweet and harmless.
As time passed, fewer and fewer people remembered how fierce she was when they first met her. They only remembered how arrogant and spoiled she was now. They even let their guard down … It really shouldn't be like this.
Seeing that Gong Che had digested this information, she slowly spoke again.
"It's common for Western Zhou to need disaster relief because of the drought. If someone was concerned and found out about it in advance and sent an urgent message, there would indeed be people in the capital who could make preparations in advance."
In reality, this wasn't the first time. It was common for the disaster relief materials to be so demanding. The Dai Yu State's territory was vast, so it took a lot of effort to manage it. Although the emperor was a wise ruler, he couldn't execute all the corrupt officials. Most of the time, as long as they didn't go overboard, he would turn a blind eye.
However, this time was different. This was Gong Dai's first time in office, and it would affect his future!
Moreover, GongYimo knew that this wasn't all. In order to target Gong Dai, those people not only tampered with the food, but also bought defective clothes and medicine. They wanted to pass off shoddy goods as good ones.
