He was very clear that GongYimo had far more resources than he imagined.
Moreover, the connections, business opportunities, and peace that she possessed were what Yu Qi desperately needed right now!
As long as she kept her promise and supported Yu Qi, Yu Qi could quickly recover. But before that, Yu Qi had to settle down, and there could only be one person in charge.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Dong Luanyi pulled out Hai Qing's sword and slashed at Shang Mingxi, but Shang Mingxi nimbly dodged it!
He wasn't a man without the strength to truss a chicken, but he usually didn't make a move. He looked gentle, but his movements were quick. He quickly hid behind Gong Yi Mo. Since he had already been pulled onto the pirate ship, this kind of thankless task would be left to Gong Yi Mo to deal with.
So before Dong Luanyi could slash at him again, GongYimo's hand covered the child's head, and Dong Luanyi was instantly pulled back by Hai Qing!
"Empress Dowager! Do you want to be taken hostage by her?! "
Hai Qing warned her in a low voice!
Dong Luanyi gripped the sword so tightly that her knuckles turned white! She wanted to hack Shang Mingxi to death! No … she wanted to kill everyone here! Kill them all!
"Empress Dowager, if you want to be the empress, I'm afraid it's not that easy. This child is a disaster to us, but to you, he's your only trump card, so I'm not afraid of him dying. Why don't you try taking another step forward?"
GongYimo's threat was like a bucket of cold water poured over the empress dowager's head. The empress dowager was stunned, and the viciousness in GongYimo's eyes forced her to regain her rationality!
But after a moment, she said fiercely, "Fine, you can take Si Wuyan and the child away, as long as you leave Shang Mingxi behind! Aijia will let you leave! "
GongYimo raised her brows slightly, and turned to look at Shang Mingxi. He blinked and said sadly, "Princess, this official's life is in your hands …"
GongYimo couldn't help but laugh, and said to the empress dowager, "All of us have to leave! As long as you let us out of the palace, I'll naturally return this child to you! "
Dong Luanyi sneered. Her entire body was twisted and sinister!
"Then you can all die here!"
GongYimo refused to back down and confronted him head-on!
"If I die, then so be it. If I die, you won't have an easy time either. Without this child, let's see if you can still comfortably be the Empress Dowager!"
Dong Luanyi was impulsive and was about to issue a kill order! However, many people around her stopped her and asked her to reconsider!
Countless voices of persuasion rang in her ears. Even she herself knew that the child could not die. However, Dong Luanyi's eyes were glued to Shang Mingxi, filled with deep resentment!
GongYimo also noticed this and said slowly, "… Some people are more fun to torture when they're alive. What's the point of dying? Don't you agree? "
She was persuading the Empress Dowager. As long as there's life, there's hope. If she let them go now, she could still catch Shang Mingxi another day. However, the premise was that her position as the Empress Dowager was stable!
GongYimo looked at Si Wuyan in Bai Qiyou's arms. "Moreover, if Si Wuyan really dies, I can't stay in Yuqi. At that time, you'll have the puppet in your hands. Won't you have the final say in what you do?"
"Princess …" Shang Mingxi was speechless. She shouldn't trick her own people like this!
Dong Luanyi gradually calmed down. She didn't believe that other than that reclusive divine doctor, who could save Si Wuyan. She wanted to let Shang Mingxi know how ridiculous his decision was!
Her reddened eyes finally moved from Shang Mingxi to GongYimo. She asked in a low voice, gritting her teeth.
"As long as you leave the palace, you'll hand over the child?"
Si Wuyan must die, but this child must not die!
GongYimo looked at her seriously. "I don't have any other virtues, but I'm famous for doing what I say."
"Good!"
Both of them looked at each other and saw the determination and fierceness in each other's eyes. They could hide for a while, but they couldn't hide forever. She wanted to see where they could escape to after handing over the child!
"Leave!" She felt hateful when she saw them!
GongYimo smiled and really left. However, when she moved, her body staggered. Shang Mingxi couldn't help but look at her feet. He found that her feet were severely burned. It wasn't hard to imagine what had happened before.
"Can you still walk?" Bai Qiyou asked with concern.
"I'm fine." GongYimo took a deep breath. "Let's go!"
As they spoke, they retreated and walked out of the palace.
The little monkey quickly ran over and jumped onto GongYimo's shoulder. Shang Mingxi looked at this group of people. Some were unconscious, some were seriously injured, and there was even a strange monkey. They were completely a motley crew … He wondered if he had made a wrong decision.
On the way out of the palace, the imperial guards on both sides were on standby. They stared at them covetously, but they didn't make a move. GongYimo asked Shang Mingxi in a low voice.
"How many people do you have?"
At this critical moment, he didn't keep them in suspense. "Three thousand people. They're already waiting at the palace gate."
"But …" He wanted to say something but stopped.
Three thousand people were too few. If the Empress Dowager ordered all the imperial guards to move, they could only run for their lives. Moreover, if the Empress Dowager ordered Guan Zaijin to intercept them first, they would have no way to survive. Therefore, the child in their hands was the key.
"Don't worry. I'm 50% sure that Guan Zaijin will let the child go!"
GongYimo said very seriously as she held the child. Shang Mingxi believed her words. When he thought about it, he felt that it was inconceivable.
After they left the palace, Hai Qing questioned them from behind.
"Hand over the Prince!"
GongYimo said. "First, hand over the child that I brought into the palace!"
Hai Qing was stunned. He didn't expect her to still remember this. However, one child was not enough, so he handed it over to GongYimo. GongYimo handed it over to Shang Mingxi's men. Seeing him send the child away, they heaved a sigh of relief.
"Are you going to hand over the prince now?" Hai Qing pressed on.
GongYimo laughed shamelessly. "I'll definitely hand him over. However, I won't hand him over to you. I'll hand him over to Guan Zaijin! He must be waiting for me at the city gate, right? "
Hai Qing was furious! "You dare to lie to me?"
GongYimo looked up at the palace gate. "I said that I'll return him to you after we leave the palace. As long as I'm still in Yuhua City, doesn't that count as leaving the palace? I advise you not to come forward. Otherwise, I'll strangle him to death right now! "
GongYimo was holding the child. Although she was smiling, her hand was still on the child's neck.
Hai Qing was a little hesitant. Moreover, Shang Mingxi's men were surrounding them, so he couldn't do anything.
Forget it, there was still Guan Zaijin. The Empress Dowager was also gathering her men. They wouldn't be able to leave Yuhua City!
Seeing that Hai Qing was no longer bothering them, GongYimo and the others quickly got on their horses and led the three thousand people out of the city. Once the Empress Dowager caught up, they would definitely be overwhelmed in numbers. That was no joke.
However, there was still one more obstacle to pass through the city gate!
