His tone was cold, as if he was explaining, but this explanation made Bai Sheng even more nervous! His Highness couldn't have discovered something, right?
For a moment, Bai Sheng didn't know how to respond. After a long time, he heard Gong Dai suddenly laugh.
The night here was very cold, but it was far less chilling than Gong Dai's laughter.
"Speaking of which, I'm very curious. After being out for so long, why haven't I received a single letter from the capital?"
Gong Dai raised his eyebrows and slowly said this. His face suddenly darkened as he looked at Bai Sheng with a strong murderous intent!
He crumpled a page of the book in front of him into a ball and threw it at Bai Sheng's face, sneering, "Very good … I trusted you so much, but you dared to deceive me!"
It didn't hurt, but Bai Sheng immediately knelt down, large beads of sweat sliding down his pale face. He had already dealt with it, but he didn't expect that there would be a fish that slipped through the net! It's over, with Gong Dai's character, those who betray him will definitely not have a good ending!
He couldn't help but speak in a panic, "Your Highness, please forgive me! This was all the princess's idea, the princess just didn't want you to worry … "
Something really happened!
Gong Dai narrowed his eyes and stared at him, "What else are you hiding from me! Speak! "
"Nothing!" Bai Sheng shook his head and said in a panic, "Other than the princess being demoted, there really isn't anything else I dare to hide from you!"
Demoted?!
These two words made Gong Dai's chest hurt so much that he almost vomited blood!
He cared so much about her, so much that he loved her, but she actually hid such a big thing from him!? Demoted …
"Heh … No wonder I didn't receive a single letter."
So that's it, that's it!
He had miscalculated, he trusted the Royal Sister and Grandfather too much. Their financial resources were almost the same, so it was easy for them to work together to hide it from him.
His words shocked Bai Sheng. He hurriedly opened the paper ball by his feet to take a look. There was nothing on it. When he raised his head, he saw a cold sword pointed at his neck. There was even a trace of blood on it, which was left by the girl on the ground.
Gong Dai stood in front of him, his anger surging. His black jade-like eyes gradually became bloodshot, and his entire being twisted like a ghost!
"Tell me everything that happened in the past."
Hearing Gong Dai's words, Bai Sheng didn't dare to hide anything. With a pale face, he hurriedly explained the situation. His sword trembled in anger. It was very likely that in the next second, he would be like the woman on the ground and slit his throat!
"I see! The Royal Sister has been demoted. How dare you! How dare you work together to deceive me! "
Gong Dai took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He wanted to suppress the killing intent in his heart! No! He couldn't calm down at all. Whenever he thought of how GongYimo had been bullied by so many people and how she had been demoted to be alone, he wanted to go back and kill everyone in the imperial court!
And Gong Che! What right did he have to make the Royal Sister plead for mercy? He was the Crown Prince! His maternal family had committed a heinous crime. Shouldn't he bear the consequences himself?!
And Grandfather! Uncle! Why did they work together to deceive him? Why!
Gong Dai's eyes were filled with cold murderous intent!
"Prepare the horse! I want to go back, back to the capital! Immediately! "
Bai Sheng was so frightened that he almost fainted. The West Province was right in front of him. If he went back, he would be disobeying the imperial edict! He would be beheaded!
"Your Highness! How much effort did the Prince and Princess put in? How long did they plan for this opportunity? If you just leave like this, will you be worthy of the Princess' painstaking efforts?! "
Bai Sheng bitterly tried to persuade Gong Jue, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Gong Jue's sword pierced his neck, causing blood to gush out.
"Shut up! I don't want to hear anything from you! "
Feeling the pain in his neck, Bai Sheng suddenly had an epiphany. With Gong Dai's personality, he would have killed him long ago if he wanted to. Now that he was still alive, it must be because of the Princess.
Thinking of this, Bai Sheng endured the fear and pain and said, "Even if you kill me, I will say it! This subordinate still remembers that the Chaoyang Princess was looking for a suitable opportunity. She flipped through countless cases before coming up with this idea.
In order to understand whether the well canal was suitable for the West Province, she studied the geology of the West Province for a whole month. After much deliberation, she finally finalized this plan!
Before arranging for me to come here, she also repeatedly urged me to help you complete the task. Now that you want to go back, why don't you kill me first? It's better than me not being able to answer to the Princess! "
"Heh, do you think I don't dare?"
Gong Dai's voice was as cold as ice. His hand gripped the hilt of his sword tightly!
But when he heard Bai Sheng's words, he couldn't help but think of GongYimo's appearance when she was busy writing. She was such a lazy person, but when she was dealing with this matter, she was so serious and considerate …
Royal Sister, what should I do with you? What should I do with you?
The tip of the sword trembled, but in the end, it didn't cut down. Gong Dai threw the narrow sword into the bed, making a buzzing sound.
Bai Sheng's body went limp. He finally escaped with his life.
When he saw Gong Dai turn around and leave without opening the door, Bai Sheng's heart trembled and he heaved a sigh of relief. He advised in a soft voice.
"… This subordinate knows that Your Highness is worried about the Princess, but the Princess is also sincere to you. In all my life, this subordinate has never seen a sister who is so considerate of her half-brother. Your Highness, can you really bear to let her down?"
He was trying his best to persuade him, but Gong Dai didn't speak for a long time. Bai Sheng was nervous and couldn't help but secretly look up. He saw that Gong Dai's back was facing him and his body was tense. He was even trembling slightly!
Gong Jue raised his hand and looked down at his palm over and over again. His eyes were red, as if he was desperately trying to restrain himself. Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
"I also know … I also know!"
Bai Sheng was frightened by Gong Dai's appearance. He was shocked and panicked. He couldn't help but soften his tone again and again.
"… Your Highness, don't worry. The Princess is strong in martial arts and is resourceful. She will definitely be fine. She wants to see you achieve great things. This is the first step you have to take …"
"Achieve great things …"
Gong Dai's hands clenched tightly into fists, but then he released them. His voice fell silent. After a long time, he spoke in a cold and weak voice.
"If I don't have her … what is the use of achieving great things?"
His words made Bai Sheng turn pale with fright! He really didn't expect Gong Yun to say such words. Wasn't it a man's innate ambition that existed in his bones and blood to make a name for himself?
"But you're right …"
Gong Dai slowly lowered his head. His hands were clenched into fists by his side. Although his back was tense, there was a sense of desolation in it.
"She is not an ordinary woman … She never disappoints anyone, so, so …!"
His fingers dug deep into his palms.
"So I can't, I can't disappoint her …"
She won't fail, so I can't fail either. Otherwise, how can I stand by her side?
But Royal Sister, you're too naughty. It looks like I can't let Grandfather and Royal Sister control me anymore. I must monopolize all of this power. I can't let Royal Sister hide her ability from me. I want to know everything about her, everything about her!
