After giving the antidote to Bai Qiyou, GongYimo quickly sent a letter to Gong Dai, telling him to be careful of the Snow Clan. Their position was unclear, so he had to be careful!
But he didn't know if he could make it in time! After all, the Snow Clan was already in Long City!
On Gong Jue's side, he received some news that there seemed to be unrest at the border. Calculating the time, Gong Jue realized that the riot in Longcheng Barracks happened to coincide with Sister Gong's arrival. She … wouldn't be involved, right?
No … With Royal Sister's temperament, she couldn't be involved in it, could she?
Thinking of this, Gong Jue's heart was burning with anxiety. He secretly sent Yu Qi's people to check carefully. He must get news of Sister Gong.
As for himself, he made up his mind to go to Yu Qi as soon as he finished his work!
Just when he was feeling annoyed, Lo Qi came to report that someone wanted to see him!
Who is it? Gong Dai raised his eyebrows slightly.
He walked into the room and saw two old people.
And they are acquaintances?
Gong Dai didn't say anything. He didn't know why the Snow Clan wanted to see him.
Xue Qi, the old lady, claimed that she was Royal Sister's grandmother. That was why Gong Dai treated her so gently. "I wonder why the two of you came from so far away?"
Shouldn't they be in Lou Ye?
Xue Qi coughed a few times, while Xue Zhan took out something and presented it to Luo Qi. Luo Qi, who was next to Xue Qi, took a step forward and opened it. He discovered that it was a bloody robe! Gong Dai was very familiar with this dress. It was the dress that the Royal Sister designed herself!
Gong Dai's expression didn't change, but his heart was in turmoil! He didn't touch the dress, but he was very sure that it belonged to the Royal Sister!
Royal Sister was really injured …
Gong Jue's heart tightened. For a moment, he couldn't figure out why his people in Yu Qi hadn't received the news yet, but the Xue family had already received it. This was a conspiracy. As long as he thought about it, he knew that Sister Gong had fallen into their trap!
How disobedient! Why didn't she protect herself?
Gong Dai suppressed his worries. At the same time, he made up his mind to leave for Yuqi immediately!
Seeing the frown on Zhang Xuan's face, the old man who was following the granny, Xue Zhan, said.
"This is from our clansmen in Jade Qi. They said that the Saintess was injured at the border! However, our abilities are limited. I hope that King Qi will lend us a hand! "
Saying this, Xue Zhan knelt down. His words were sincere, as if he was really worried about GongYimo.
How did the Royal Sister become their Saintess?
Gong Dai calmed down a little and realized that this matter was very strange … The Snow Clan knew about the Royal Sister's whereabouts before he did. This was very suspicious! The only explanation was that the Snow Clan was involved in the matter of the Royal Sister's injury. That's why they were one step ahead of him!
After figuring this out, Gong Dai suddenly became vigilant. However, he didn't show it on his face.
"I will take care of this matter. Is there anything else?"
Gong Dai said as he moved his finger. Lo Qi understood that the King wanted to arrest them! But aren't they the Princess's family? Luo Qi thought strangely as he prepared in secret.
The Snow Clan's people didn't know that they were exposed so quickly. Xue Qi coughed and Xue Zhan spoke again.
"I heard that … you like our Saintess …"
When Xue Zhan said this, he seemed to be in a difficult position. Gong Dai narrowed his eyes and stared at him dangerously.
Now that GongYimo wasn't by his side, he couldn't protect her. Therefore, he didn't want anyone to spread this matter. He didn't want anyone to hurt her. However, he couldn't stop them in time.
Just as he was about to stop Xue Zhan from talking and capture them for interrogation, Xue Zhan said something that shocked him.
"Since it's like this, I should tell you the secret of our Saintess …"
Gong Dai suppressed all his thoughts and looked at the two Snow Clan's people. Could it be that the Royal Sister had a secret that he didn't know about?
Thinking about this, he suddenly felt nervous. It seemed that what Xue Zhan was about to say was very important to him …
Maybe Xue Zhan was lying, but this matter was related to GongYimo. Gong Dai suppressed his anxiety and said in a low voice.
"Oh? Royal Sister's secret? Isn't she the Princess of our Dai Yu State? Apart from that, what other secret does she have? "
Xue Zhan looked around. "Please ask your attendants to leave."
Gong Dai raised his brows slightly. He was on high alert against the Snow Clan. However, because he was strong, he wasn't afraid that the Snow Clan would do anything. Therefore, he asked Lo Qi and the others to leave.
Xue Zhan looked at Xue Qi and said in a low voice.
"King Qi, do you know the Saintess's mother, Xue Lian?"
Gong Dai frowned impatiently. At this moment, Xue Qi spoke. Her voice was low and hoarse. She looked old and weak.
"Your Highness, Xue Lian … is the Saintess of Snow Country …"
She opened her eyes and looked at Gong Dai. "When Snow Country was destroyed, she was kidnapped by the Monarch of Dai Yu State …"
Gong Dai became more and more impatient.
"I know all this."
Xue Qi suddenly smiled strangely. "But … there is one thing that you don't know … Cough, cough!"
Gong Dai, who was sitting on the seat of honor, looked at the stooped old woman in front of him and listened to her speak.
"When Xue Lian was taken away … she was pregnant with my son's … child! She was already one month old … "
One month old …
Child!
Gong Dai was stunned. It took him a while to understand what she was talking about.
Xue Lian had a child who was one month old before she entered the palace?
Gong Jue's eyes widened slightly. He could hear his heart thumping loudly in his chest! He didn't say anything for a long time.
Calculating the time, it was Royal Sister's birthday and Xue Lian's arrival in the palace … If Xue Lian aborted the child and got pregnant again, Xue Lian shouldn't have been at this age …
In other words …
In other words …
At that moment, Gong Jue suddenly felt a sense of timidity!
His palms were wet, and he didn't dare to think about it. He was afraid that he couldn't control himself.
"Where's the proof?" Gong Dai's gaze stunned Xue Qi, who had been through a lot.
"Words aren't proof. Where's the proof?"
Xue Qi tried to calm her heartbeat. Since the pressure coming from Gong Dai's body was too terrifying, she only found her voice after a long while.
She trembled as she handed over a piece of jade to him. "As long as it's a member of the Xue Clan … her blood can seep into this piece of jade."
Gong Dai took it subconsciously. But in the next second, he threw it on the ground. He threw the jade pendant on the ground, and his entire hand began to turn black!
There was poison on it.
"Guards!"
Gong Dai shouted, and everyone surrounded the two of them. He quickly sealed his acupuncture points so that the poison wouldn't spread.
Xue Qi widened her eyes in pity. This Gong Jue is too alert. In such a situation, he clearly lost his mind! But, he threw away the jade just as he held it. If he had held it for a while longer, the poison would have reached his heart, and he would have been at their mercy.
However, their plan couldn't keep up with the changes. Gong Dai discovered it in time, and the poison wasn't too deep. He would be able to detoxify it in a month.
At this critical juncture, Xue Zhan suddenly spoke.
"Your Highness, you shouldn't act rashly. Otherwise, the princess will be in grave danger."
