Chapter 413: Returning Home (2)

After gathering her thoughts together, she set off with determination.

But she wasn’t heading towards the imperial palace. She was heading out of the city.

At this moment, a pale faced Jin Yun pulled open the curtains of the carriage he was on, glancing outside.

He did not spend the past few days very well. He almost starved to death!

In the end, he tossed and turned in his sleep, troubled by the danger he was in, but he could not let the public know of this.

At least back then, he had shoved Gong Yi Mo out the city and was prepared to face death!

When Jin Sheng had seen him letting Gong Yi Mo escape, he immediately took his horse whip and hit Jin Yun! Now, his body was covered with whip marks, and while he was in the prison cell, he came down with a fever and almost died. Luckily, he was recovering now.

Thankfully, he had learned much in the past few years. In the end, he managed to make it out alive!

Due to Jin Sheng’s “severe illness”, as far as the citizens of Yu Heng were concerned, Jin Yun’s words were now absolute. Even though people now considered him unfilial, he should’ve done this long ago!

Now deep within a sea of regret, he could only hope that Yi Mo would hear of his news and come back to search for him, since there was no way Da Yu would protect her...

But this time, he had the ability to protect her. If she came back to look for him, this would never happen again. But where was she now?

As Gong Yi Mo exited the city, she turned back and glanced upward at the cityscape. She had lived here for the last three years. To be honest, there were some feelings of unwillingness to leave.

But it was time for her to return. Staying here would only bring trouble to Jin Yun. Since he was fine now, she...should also go back and fulfill her duties. They’ll still work together won’t they?

Gong Yi Mo lowered her head and left.

She never enjoyed being confined to her rank, she also never liked others controlling her. Yet now, she was sick and tired of hiding her identity!

She looked towards the direction of Da Yu and smiled.

She was the Chao Yang Princess.

Why couldn’t she return?!

Everyone in the library of the Chao Yang palace was scared and timid. No one would say a thing!

Gong Sheng was practicing his calligraphy. His calligraphy was actually pretty good! Yet the ground was littered with numerous scraps of paper wads. Everyone else was too scared to disturb or question him.

Chang Xi watched on the side in delight, but after seeing a perfectly good word with one stroke messed up, Gong Sheng would furrow his eyebrows in frustration! Again, another paper wad would land on his ground. Sometimes he’d also toss his red pen aside and Chang Xi would quickly intervene.

“Your highness has already been writing for two hours. Why don’t you rest and drink some tea!”

Just as Chang Xi finished speaking, a servant who had prepared tea already came forward and handed the cup to Gong Sheng.

Gong Sheng looked at him for a second and drank a sip of the tea. It was unclear as to what made him even more infuriated, but he violently threw the tea cup onto the ground.

A loud smash! All the servants kneeled down, especially that maid who had brought the tea with her, her face now pale and white. She crept by the emperor’s foot.

“Please forgive me your majesty! Please calm down!”

Gong Sheng coldly smiled. “Calm down? You don’t even know why I’m angry, why should I calm down?!”

No one dared to answer his question. Only Chang Xi sighed and waved his hand for the servants to leave.

This bold move however, didn’t anger the emperor further. The servants in the room all thanked Chang Xi with their eyes before quickly taking their leave.

Seeing Gong Xi sitting angrily on his dragon throne, Chang Xi decided to ask him a lighthearted question. “Is your majesty upset about Yu Heng?”

Gong Sheng glared at him. “You know me well!”

Chang Xi quickly smiled, not speaking another word. If only the emperor would share his troubles when Chang Xi asked instead of needing to express his opinions on the matter.

“That group of no good people! What’s the point of bullying a child! And having an entire army to surround the city! And then saying she’s a spy for Da Yu? How funny, would he send a princess to act as a spy too?”
