Eunuch Chang Xi was also in a difficult position, "Princess, don't be sad. His Majesty's illness relapsed this morning and he's not feeling well … Princess, please come back another day."
GongYimo's feet and shoulders were bandaged. Sitting in the sedan, she looked very pitiful. Chang Xi couldn't bear to see her wait here.
"Gong Dai."
Gong Dai looked at her and prepared to take her to Qi Manor first. Since they had already shed all pretenses, he didn't want to avoid anyone anymore.
GongYimo said with some hesitation.
"Can you go to Taiji Palace and get me a cloak?"
Gong Dai knew that his Royal Sister wanted to send him away. Although he was unwilling, he still went.
After he left, GongYimo jumped off the sedan and looked at her feet. She then looked at the 399 steps leading to Zhaoyang Palace and walked over.
Chang Xi hurriedly stopped her, "Princess, His Majesty really doesn't want to see you … Why must you be angry with him …"
GongYimo shook her head and interrupted him, "Imperial Father is angry with me. If I don't appear, he will only be angrier. Eunuch Chang Xi, don't stop me. I know what I'm doing."
Saying this, she suddenly snatched the horsetail whisk from Chang Xi's hand and put it behind her waist. Then she knelt down on the first step and prostrated herself in the direction of Zhaoyang Palace!
"Imperial Father, this son has returned!"
She used her internal energy to transmit her voice far enough for the Emperor to hear.
Chang Xi stomped his foot behind her, "Princess! You're still injured! Why must you do this? "
He finally understood why the princess wanted to send His Highness away. If His Highness was here, he definitely couldn't bear for her to do such a thing with her injuries.
GongYimo acted as if she didn't hear anything and prostrated herself again after taking three steps.
"Imperial Father! This son has returned! "
Many of the palace servants around them were slightly moved. Regarding the matter between the Princess, the Prince, and the Crown Prince, they had heard some rumors. However, in this matter, the most innocent person was the Princess. The poor Princess was such a good person, yet His Majesty refused to see her.
GongYimo's heart was calm. She sighed and continued to walk up the stairs. Fortunately, the white marble steps had been swept clean by the palace servants until they were spotless. Otherwise, her clothes would be dirty and Gong Dai would scold her again.
Chang Xi saw that GongYimo did not listen to his advice, so he could only go to the Emperor. The Princess was still injured. Even if there was hatred between father and daughter, couldn't they sit down calmly and have a good chat?
As for GongYimo, no matter what Chang Xi did, she still knelt every three steps and announced that she was back!
The autumn sun hung high in the sky. Soon, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, staining some of her hair. She looked a little embarrassed.
However, because she had lost a lot of blood, she was now a little anemic. So when she stood up, her body swayed and she almost fell down the stairs!
The palace servants around her cried out in alarm. However, in the next second, she fell into a warm embrace. GongYimo blinked.
"You … You didn't go …"
Gong Dai pursed his lips. He knew that the Royal Sister deliberately sent him away, but he still left. However, when he thought of the Royal Sister's personality, he was afraid that she would do something to hurt him again, so he quickly came back. As expected, the moment he came back, he saw her foolishly bowing every three steps, asking to see the Emperor …
It was undeniable that when he saw this scene, he was very angry! He wanted to carry the Royal Sister to find the Emperor to clarify things! This matter had nothing to do with the Royal Sister! If there was any anger, just take it out on him!
However, he hesitated …
The reason why the Royal Sister sent him away was because she did not want him to interfere in this matter. She was strong and proud! She wanted to solve everything by herself. She had her own decisions and thoughts, so he had to respect her.
Moreover, once she decided on something, no one could stop her, not even him.
So, he suppressed his heartache and anger as he watched her kneel more than ten times. Finally, when he saw that she almost fell, he could not help but go forward to catch her!
He originally wanted to say something to her, but when he saw her pale little face, he could not say a word. He could only keep a straight face as the anger in his heart grew stronger!
GongYimo even comforted him, "I'm fine …"
She said it with a guilty conscience.
Gong Dai stared coldly at her bleeding wound. Because of his anger, his voice was gloomy and trembling with anger!
"Even if you're using the trick of injuring yourself to gain sympathy, you shouldn't humiliate yourself like this!"
GongYimo blinked and said innocently, "If I don't humiliate myself … how can it be considered a trick of injuring myself to gain sympathy?"
Still unrepentant?!
Gong Dai only felt that the volcano in his heart had erupted! He did not want to talk to GongYimo and prepared to go to the Emperor directly!
How terrible would that be?
GongYimo hurriedly pulled him back!
"I know your heart aches for me …"
"You know, but you're still like this!"
Gong Dai suddenly turned around. His eyes were red as he looked at GongYimo and shrank back. His heart was swollen and he felt a little wronged.
Gong Dai could not help but lower his voice, but his gaze was still fierce, so much so that she could not raise her head!
"You're mine! Your whole person, your body is mine! I won't allow you to humiliate yourself like this! "
He paused for a moment, trying hard to calm himself down, and said through gritted teeth.
"So, I'll settle this matter, don't interfere!"
How could he settle this matter!
GongYimo wailed in her heart. She had used the trick of injuring herself to gain sympathy because she was afraid that Gong Dai would make a move. She wanted to use the most gentle method to settle this peacefully. If Gong Dai were to make a move, it would be like a volcano colliding with an iceberg. Even if it was a solution, it would be an abyss of suffering.
But this time, Gong Dai was determined to interfere in GongYimo's matter. He was her man, not her brother!
"Gong Dai!"
GongYimo had no choice but to use her ultimate move!
"I … I just want to be able to receive blessings between us …"
GongYimo lowered her head, and Gong Dai was also shocked by her words!
So … Royal Sister was doing this for him?
GongYimo whispered, "… There are many ways to solve this problem, but I hope that this matter between us can be settled peacefully. Do you … understand?"
She raised her head and looked at him with a very sincere gaze. That gaze moved him, and even his anger dissipated like smoke into thin air.
"I'll accompany you."
After a long time, he whispered.
GongYimo waved her hand, but before she could say anything, Gong Dai helplessly grabbed her hand, "I'll kneel with you. Can I not go in?"
If he didn't go in, it would be fine for her to settle this matter, right? But for him to watch her kneel alone, he couldn't do it.
GongYimo nodded and continued to kneel every three steps. Gong Dai followed her and helped her up every time before she could get up.
Gong Cheng sat on the bed as if he was resting with his eyes closed. Chang Xi said that GongYimo was injured, and that she was kneeling every three steps to seek an audience. Gong Cheng didn't show it on his face, so no one knew what he was thinking.
Not long ago, the child who could roll around and act coquettishly in front of him had to use such a method to meet him …
"Your Majesty …"
Hearing the voice getting closer and closer, Chang Xi couldn't help but ask, "You, do you want to see her?"
At this moment, Gong Cheng opened his eyes and heard GongYimo's voice, "Imperial Father, I'm back." His eyebrows twitched, and finally, he seemed to be defeated.
"Tell her to get in here!"
