Even if someone reveals it, so what? Anyways, it will be discovered sooner or later in this world.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
Even if Li Wei really did betray her, even if he and his father colluded with Long Gui Fei, then so what? She wasn't angry. And right now, can she really confirm at this time that it's truly a betrayal?
When she thought of that time when they shared a drink as a group, and she remembered hearing him describe the future with confidence and ambition in his eyes. Gong Yi Mo felt sour in her heart. She refused to believe that he was that kind of person who would betray.
Gong Yi Mo took the lead in resisting the imperial edict. Although there were complaints from the entire team, none of them went against her decision.
Gong Che still had not awakened and has been under the physician's care.
As Gong Yi Mo watched the clouds float in the sky, she suddenly had a crazy idea.
Two days later, she didn't make a decision. She simply listened to the message. The eunuch visited once again and delivered the emperor's second decree.
Gong Yi Mo stared at the more than a dozen people present. Xu Taiyi, Liu Shilang, Xu Taiji, Li Zhangshi, Gong Gong, and many more...these people can be called her friends, her partners whom she has worked alongside for more than a year! But at this time appeared anxious and frowning, not daring to look her in the eye.
Gong Yi Mo suddenly knelt on one knee.
Everyone was taken by surprise!
"Princess! Why are you-?!"
Liu Shilang stepped forward to help her up but Gong Yi Mo refused. Her back was straight and she looked at them steadfastly.
"I'm not a princess anymore. Now I kneel here and ask for only one thing."
Liu Shilang and the others stared at her speechlessly. They all thought that Gong Yi Mo wanted them to continue resisting the imperial edict. They wanted to at least continue the journey once the prince awakens and survives the disaster, but the imperial edict was pressuring them to quickly travel back, and they could not go against it.
But Gong Yi Mo didn't want to go to the palace right away. "I promise to return to the capital...just, not now..."
Sure enough, Liu Shilang frowned deeply, not knowing how to refuse her.
Gong Yi Mo gritted her teeth; she knelt down and kowtowed heavily with a bang towards everyone!
