"Bah, bah, bah!" Xue Lian poked her harshly with her finger. "It's a joyous occasion, why are you talking about death!"
As she spoke, she glanced at GongYimo's belly. "Your belly is going to show soon. Do you want him to be less cared for than others when he's born?"
When she said this, the mother and daughter looked at each other and suddenly fell into a strange silence.
Xue Lian suddenly thought of the time when she left GongYimo behind. GongYimo also thought of this in hindsight and felt a little embarrassed.
To be honest, she didn't care why Xue Lian left. She didn't have it, so she didn't feel bad when she lost it.
But Xue Lian saw that she was silent and couldn't help but explain softly.
"I feel very guilty about what happened to you … so I don't want your child to be like this …"
She wanted to say something but stopped. Her pair of watery eyes, which were the same as GongYimo's, blinked, as if she didn't know where to start.
GongYimo was afraid that she would be sad, so she pretended to be interested and said, "Oh right, why did you fake your death to escape? Was it because you didn't like the emperor? "
Xue Lian was even more embarrassed. She looked away and quickly said.
"No … at that time … at that time, I also liked Emperor Gong, but … but there were thirty thousand beauties in the harem. He was willing to pamper me, but he wasn't willing to pamper me alone … I was very sad … and there were those annoying schemes."
Speaking of this, she frowned with some disgust. "So many women became twisted in their desires. I wasn't afraid of their schemes, but … one day, I got tired of it."
Xue Lian saw that GongYimo was staring at her without blinking, as if she was listening to a story. She blinked and wanted to hear more.
She sighed. The past that she didn't want to face, along with guilt, rushed to her heart. She knew that she was a selfish woman and could never be as selfless as her mother. So even if she cared about her, she was embarrassed to say it to GongYimo.
She took a comb and combed GongYimo's hair. She didn't like praying vegetables, so she didn't wear them. Xue Lian tied her hair into a bun and inserted a beautiful hairpin.
In the process of combing her hair, she seemed to have sorted out her thoughts. Looking at the unbelievably beautiful little woman in the mirror, her eyes warmed, and she softly talked about her past.
"Back then, I was as beautiful as you."
Xue Lian smiled proudly. She was still very beautiful, but time was merciless. She had lost the tenderness of her youth and gained a mature charm.
"Originally, I also liked Gong Cheng very much. I can see that he also likes me very much. But according to the order of arrival, there are already many people around him. He likes me the most, and I'm just one of them."
She felt a little melancholy as she talked about this. She slowly combed her hair, as if she was not combing her hair, but the years.
"At first, I could tolerate it. I thought that as long as we were in love, nothing would matter. But as time went by, he had me, but he still had other women. The funny thing was that because I was the most favored, I was always envied and persecuted by others. I was a little sick of it …"
"Some of those methods are very simple, while others are impossible to guard against. In this kind of scheming, I feel that I should leave him."
Xue Lian inserted the hairpin into GongYimo's hair. Her expression was slightly gentle.
"I don't want to become like those women in a few years. They only have competition and no sincerity. So, I decided to leave while he still loves me, before this relationship has changed. It's just that he took care of me too well, so I could only choose to fake my death."
She said with some shame, "I'm sorry that I couldn't take you with me …"
It was impossible for her to take GongYimo away.
Xue Lian sighed and took the veil over. Before she put it on, she saw that GongYimo was looking at her. She could not help but ask.
"You probably think that I'm very selfish … It's okay if you don't want to call me mother."
GongYimo blinked. Perhaps it was because blood was thicker than water, but she actually felt her uneasiness, guilt, and anticipation.
It was not that she did not feel guilty.
With that thought, GongYimo smiled sweetly.
"I don't think you're wrong. Everyone is an individual. Why do you have to do things for me unconditionally just because you're my mother? At that time, you still tried your best to save my life. I'm already very grateful! Really! "
Gong Yi Mo spoke seriously, but Xue Lian almost couldn't help but cry! Her eyes were red as she pinched the veil and said faintly.
"You really don't have any resentment? Everyone else has a mother, but you don't. "
Xue Lian remembered the rumors about Gong Yi Mo over the years. She was strong and upright, but how did she grow from a helpless little girl to this point? Xue Lian never dared to delve into it. She just wanted to see Gong Yi Mo's glory, and that was enough. She didn't think that in her lifetime, she would see her daughter again, and it was when she had lost her memory.
This … could it be that the heavens gave her a chance to make it up to her?
Xue Lian suddenly had a realization!
GongYimo raised her brows slightly and said puzzledly, "If there's no love, how can there be resentment? If I'm living a miserable life, I might blame you because of my anger. But I feel that I'm living quite well! "
Master was very good to her, and Yunding Mountain was quite interesting.
Xue Lian's heart ached, and she covered her with the veil with a wry smile.
"What a silly girl. You don't know how to coax me … can't you see that I'm very sad?"
GongYimo's eyes were covered by the red cloth. She shook her head and said briskly, "A woman who could decisively abandon the Emperor and escape by faking her death. Do you still need me to coax such a powerful woman?"
Xue Lian was amused. She looked at GongYimo, who looked much more obedient under the veil, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes.
"Don't talk later. Get married in peace. When the Regent leaves, we'll move."
GongYimo tilted her head. "Why do we have to leave?"
Xue Lian sighed. She also couldn't bear to leave this place that had been built for more than ten years.
"Because it's no longer safe here …"
She didn't want to abandon or use her daughter, but she also wanted to protect her clansmen. Then, they could only move.
GongYimo was a little regretful, but she still nodded. She trembled a little when she thought of bidding farewell to her parents under Gong Dai's nose.
"I'll try my best …"
After Gong Dai was welcomed in by Fu Ya, his eyes scanned the surroundings. He thought absentmindedly, could the Royal Sister really be hiding here?
After all, she had lost her memory … could she have forgotten her hatred for the Snow Clan?
Gong Dai didn't know if she had forgotten everything or only remembered part of it … He frowned. He hated this kind of uncontrollable state.
Fu Ya smiled apologetically at the side. "Your Highness, we are honored by your presence. Your presence brings light to our humble dwelling."
When Gong Dai heard this, he coldly glanced at him and chuckled.
"City Lord is so insincere. This prince said that I wanted to attend the wedding banquet, City Lord … is having your daughter get married in advance? Are you guarding against this prince? "
