If Gong Dai, as a prince, went to Western Zhou with worse quality supplies than the previous years, it was easy to imagine what awaited him.
What GongYimo wanted was for Gong Dai to use this opportunity to make a name for himself! She couldn't allow such a thing to happen.
Therefore, GongYimo calmly said, "Brother Crown Prince knows that I have a good relationship with Ninth Brother. He lost his mother when he was young and had no one to help him. I'm the only one who can help him. This trip to the west was also planned by me. I want to train this young bird. Therefore, even if it's an unwritten rule to pass off shoddy goods as good ones, I won't allow it this time."
At this point, her expression became serious and focused, causing Gong Che's heart to waver.
In Gong Che's eyes, there was a sky full of red clouds. Her face was unquestionable, but her eyes were full of him.
Being locked on by her, Gong Che knew that he couldn't refuse any of her requests.
He couldn't help but think of his mother. She had done everything she could to make him the Crown Prince. Even so, he still felt pity and jealousy for the eleven-year-old Gong Dai.
"What does Imperial Sister want me to do?"
Hearing his approval, GongYimo smiled again, causing the dissatisfaction that had just risen in Gong Che's heart to vanish.
"In three days, Gong Dai will leave. Before leaving, they will check the supplies as usual, so they won't make a move.
The only one who will make a move will be after leaving the city. Tomorrow, I will ask Imperial Father to use the excuse that there are too many supplies this time to leave the city from the east, south, and west gates at the same time. When the time comes, I will gather all the supplies at the south gate and leave … "
Her eyes flashed as she looked at Gong Che. "I heard that the lieutenant commander of the south gate is Brother Crown Prince's good friend. When the time comes, I want to borrow his troops to escort the supplies to Shili Pavilion outside the city."
After she finished speaking, Gong Che fell into deep thought.
He knew in his heart that the other party did not necessarily trust him. Saying that he was leaving through the south gate might just be a smokescreen.
However, he had thought about it carefully. For the sake of his reputation, Imperial Mother would not do anything to the disaster relief materials. Therefore, since Imperial Mother did not participate, he did not mind helping GongYimo.
As he thought about it, he nodded in agreement. As expected, the moment he nodded, GongYimo's eyes curved into crescents. However, when Gong Che saw this, he did not feel happy for the first time. Instead, he felt annoyed and disappointed. He looked at the sky and could not help but think that this boat … could not swim anymore.
The more he thought about it, the more stifled he felt. Gong Che felt suffocated, so he stood up. Just as he was about to say, "Let's go ashore," he suddenly felt a jolt in his chest.
His expression changed drastically! Oh no!
Gong Che opened his mouth and wanted to call for help, but he remembered that the palace servants accompanying him were all on the shore, and GongYimo's people were also on the shore!
GongYimo was originally happy to see him agree, but when she saw his face suddenly turn ashen, she couldn't help but ask.
"What is it? Crown Prince gege? "
Gong Che did not say anything. He only used his hand to tightly cover his chest. This scene was very familiar. GongYimo was stunned and suddenly woke up!
In her previous life, she had been by Gong Che's side for so long. How could she not know of Gong Che's greatest secret? She also knew that the people who knew of this secret were either his trusted aides or dead!
The small boat suddenly became silent!
GongYimo did not even have the time to sigh at her bad luck. Her back straightened and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.
At this time, Gong Che finally let out a soft cry and suddenly sat down. He held onto the edge of the boat and gasped for breath. His face was a frightening purple and he could no longer maintain his gentle image. Instead, he looked nervously and vigilantly at GongYimo. There was actually killing intent in his eyes!
His secret could not be known by anyone!
In this world, there were no more than five people who knew that Gong Che had a hidden illness.
When the empress was pregnant, she had unfortunately been poisoned and gave birth to Gong Che. At first, it was fine, but as he gradually grew up, the empress discovered that his heart and lungs were damaged. He would often suffer from suffocation and colic, and his life was in danger!
This was originally a big matter, but the empress had suffered a hemorrhage when she gave birth to Gong Che. After she woke up, she was told that she could no longer get pregnant. A prince with an illness could not become the crown prince, so she hid this news. Those who knew were either killed or kept quiet. Finally, the emperor and the concubines didn't know about it.
Therefore, his mother repeatedly warned that for his position as the crown prince and his family's honor, those who knew about this matter could only die!
At this time, Gong Che was very regretful. He really did not think that his hidden illness would act up so early. His medicine was with the palace servants on the shore. He tightly covered his chest and looked at GongYimo with a complicated expression … … Everyone who saw him like this had to die! And he was going to kill her … …
At this time, the little boat was already in the middle of the flowers. It was covered by the lotus leaves, so the people on the shore could not see the two of them.
If he wanted to kill someone, this was the best chance!
Gong Che made his decision in an instant. He turned his palm and a small hidden weapon appeared in his hand. The little boat slowly swayed. He wanted to kill her in the time the boat swayed!
Kill her … … and then send a signal for his confidant to save her!
He had to … …
Kill her!
Large beads of sweat fell from his pale face. He forced himself to open his eyes. His body was tense to the point of suffocation and gradually became numb.
The moment the little boat swayed into the flowers, GongYimo knew that she could not hesitate any longer!
She nervously looked at Gong Che. She saw that Gong Che was holding his chest that was becoming more and more suffocating. The other hand was holding the thing that wanted her life, but he did not move.
He was hesitating!
That's great! GongYimo's mind quickly turned.
As for Gong Che, he was holding the hidden weapon, but he could not bring himself to do it!
When he thought of killing her, the first thing he thought of was not how to explain it to Imperial Father or how to deal with the people on the shore who might have seen him like this. Instead … … he could not explain it to himself. Did he really want to kill her?
He had never been a gentle person. For the sake of status and Imperial Mother, he could kill someone without batting an eye!
But, did he really want to kill her!
Seeing Gong Che's face become more and more ashen, GongYimo immediately raised her hand and walked towards him. When she moved, Gong Che could not help but tense up! He almost pressed the hidden weapon in his hand!
"… … Don't come over."
His eyes flashed with a trace of reluctance!
A drop of sweat fell from GongYimo's forehead. She gently said in the least provocative tone.
"Crown Prince gege, put down the Qi box in your hand."
When Gong Che heard this, his eyes suddenly widened. The Qi box was the small box in his hand. As long as he pressed it, the poisonous gas inside could be seen and blood could be seen. Other than him who had taken the antidote, everyone else would die without a doubt.
How did she know?!
While he was hesitating, GongYimo had successfully walked to his side and quickly said, "Because of the problem with the cultivation method, I already knew about Crown Prince gege's secret … …" She forced a smile and pressed Gong Che's hand that was holding the Qi box. Her eyes were calm and serious as she said, "But this matter, I did not tell anyone, including Gong Dai."
