However, she knew that it was her Gong Dai …
When GongYimo regained her senses, everything that had happened was like a dream. She stared at her hands in a daze. Was it really a dream?
She missed him too much, so she had a dream.
She finally recognized reality and stumbled to her feet. However, she saw two words under her skirt!
— Wait for me.
It was Gong Dai!
GongYimo's eyes widened to their widest extent!
It was Gong Dai. It was Gong Dai!
But why didn't he stay? Why didn't he let her see him?
GongYimo didn't understand. She couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried. However, she suddenly stopped struggling.
Because Gong Dai was still alive …
This realization made her so happy that she cried.
No matter the reason why he couldn't appear for the time being, it didn't matter. Gong Dai wanted her to wait for him …
Alright, she would wait. She was willing to wait forever!
Dai Yu State Imperial Palace.
Recently, various powers had gathered. The entire imperial court was treading on thin ice. Gong Dai was said to be dead. GongYimo had also disappeared. Could it be that the imperial power of Dai Yu State was going to be controlled by a group of servants?
In the beginning, the quarrel was still very quiet. However, gradually, the discussion became louder and louder. A country couldn't be without a ruler for a day. It had already been more than a month. What else did they want?
Although there was an eight-year-old Puppet Emperor, he was only eight years old. What did he know?
In this chaos, some people directly stood up and said that they wanted to appoint a new ruler. Then, some people said that they wanted to send other ministers to assist the little emperor. In the end, they wanted to divide the power.
Another day, just as those who were scheming were about to go all out, a cold voice rang out.
"Who said that the Dai Yu State has no ruler?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. They turned around and saw a tall woman in a black court dress walking over.
Her eyes were like lightning. Her previous decadence was swept away. At this moment, she was full of energy. However, she gave people a feeling that she was unreasonable.
"It's the princess …"
"She actually came back …"
When the child on the dragon throne saw GongYimo, he showed a little scared expression. It was only because Bai Sheng, who was beside him, held the little emperor down that he did not lose face.
GongYimo strode into the hall. More than two hundred gazes gathered on her. They were already very surprised to see her, but when they saw her growing belly, their gazes became even more subtle.
Someone said directly.
"Princess, the royal court is an important place. Women are not allowed to enter. This is an ancestral rule!"
GongYimo glanced over indifferently.
"Imperial Father conferred me the title of Gu Country Princess, and I enjoy the Crown Prince's respect. In other words, aside from the Crown Prince, I have the highest status. Why can't I enter the Imperial Court?"
That person retreated in defeat. Someone else said.
"Your Highness is pregnant. You should focus on nurturing your baby. Don't interfere with the matters of the imperial court."
GongYimo sneered.
"Who said that women should stay at home to nurture the fetus? In terms of intelligence and strategy, in terms of outstanding achievements, who can surpass me here? If you can't, then shut up! "
That person wanted to refute, but in terms of achievements and virtue, no one could compare to GongYimo. Thinking of this, that person shut up.
GongYimo's words were sharp. She raised her head and strode in. Only when she reached the front of the courtiers did she stop and look behind her.
Her gorgeous palace dress twirled, emitting starlight. The golden crown accentuated her unparalleled beauty and peerless elegance.
"Now, the Regent is not here. I want to replace him as regent. Does anyone have any objections?"
Her words caused a huge uproar. The older generation also began to disagree. A woman becoming regent? Was she going to be the Empress?
"Your Highness's words are wrong. Whether the Regent is missing or dead is still uncertain. But what the Princess means is that as long as the Regent is not back, the Princess will be regent? Then wouldn't our Dai Yu state be ruled by a woman? What's the difference between the Princess's actions and that of Empress Dowager Yuqi? "
The person who said this was an elder of two dynasties. He was upright and righteous, but also famous for being pedantic.
GongYimo smiled slightly. Although her face was still a bit pale, it was much better.
"The Regent will return. I only hope to protect Dai Yu state before he returns. If you have any objections, why don't you give it a try?"
She pursed her lips. "In terms of governance, strategy, martial arts, and ability, if anyone can surpass me in any of these, I will definitely abdicate. But if you want to use the fact that I'm a woman to deny it, I won't agree."
"You!" The old courtier thought for a while and finally realized that no one could surpass her. Could it be that they had to listen to a woman?
"If the Princess wants to bring a child to govern from behind the curtain, you must be upright!" Another old courtier said. "You're pregnant before marriage and have already shamed the imperial family! Now you want to bring this fatherless child to court? You're simply disregarding the ancestral teachings. "
"Who said that the father is fatherless?" GongYimo suddenly became angry. She raised her brows! "This consort is negotiating nicely with you. Do you think this consort is a pushover?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a layer of frost began to form under her feet. Then, the frost spread in all directions as if it had a life of its own. When the courtiers saw this, they retreated in a panic. Fortunately, GongYimo only wanted to teach them a lesson and didn't directly freeze them. However, they were still scared out of their wits.
She swept her sharp gaze across the court!
"I'm the Crown Princess personally conferred by Imperial Father. My status is high. Even if I were to push the young emperor down and ascend to the throne, it would still be in accordance with Imperial Father's wishes! Since ancient times, there has never been a female emperor. However, it was never said that there would never be one! "
Gong Yi Mo's words made them even more frightened. Their Great Yu was really powerful. One forced them to be the Regent, while the other directly told them that she was the Crown Princess! Gong Yi Mo's words made them even more frightened.
But this wasn't the end.
"Imperial Father personally decreed that I'm betrothed to the Regent. The child in my stomach is naturally his! Whoever dares to say that the father is fatherless, I'll kill his entire family! "
Every word of this sentence seemed to strike the hearts of the courtiers. They had almost forgotten that GongYimo had been betrothed by the late emperor.
"I have the absolute right to command the troops in the Regent's hands. If you have any ideas, it's best to abandon them. I'm not necessarily easier to talk to than the Regent."
This was considered a threat.
"Lastly, I'm only going to be the Regent for the time being. When the Regent returns, I'll return it. If you have any objections, it's not like I can't carry out a bloodbath. In any case, at the beginning of a prosperous era, there will always be deaths!"
Her words pressured the courtiers so much that they couldn't breathe.
Suddenly, the young emperor, who had been scared silly, burst into tears. Only then did the courtiers wake up from their daze!
They looked at GongYimo, who was above them, and suddenly felt a chill run down their spines!
"Why aren't you kneeling?!"
With one command, everyone subconsciously knelt down.
"— — Long live the Princess!"
GongYimo curled her lips.
Looking at the courtiers, she secretly decided that she had to pull herself together. She had to wait for Gong Dai's return!
