"Who says Mo'er is getting married?"Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

Gong Cheng said in a deep voice, and his one sentence made everyone quiet down completely.

"If you do not mourn her, fine! It's not too much to ask for you to see off Yan'er at her funeral, is it? What kind of royalty are you if you refuse this much? What Rongji Princess then would you be?"

In the end, it was still Gong Yimo's title and position that bothered her.

She was just using the matter of Yan'er's funeral to provoke her. Just seeing a person off was not much different from mourning, you just didn't have to wear the mourning clothes, but she would have to be responsible for receiving the crowd and watching over the corpse for seven days and seven nights until the funeral procession team arrived before sending Yan'er off to be buried before everything was over.

So, as long as Gong Yimo promised her this, then she'll definitely be able to find faults in her somewhere during this long period of time! Then she'll force her to return her title! Otherwise, how could she stand this?!

The Emperor was stopped by that question. It was the first time he actually pondered this question.

After a while, he suddenly said, "Since Our royal sons are able to take wives and concubines, and Our princess has sacrificed so much for her country. Why can she not have a male pet?"

The Emperor's words shocked the entire court! If it wasn't for the fact that Gong Jue was too busy with the bank and didn't attend court, and if the crown prince wasn't still in Huaihe, then this sentence alone was enough to flip the sky over!

Gong Yimo's head was beginning to hurt while quarreling with the Empress Dowager. Indeed, there have been princesses who run harem chores on behalf of the harem through the dynasties, but that is only the case if the Empress was sick or if the princess was very old. For the Empress Dowager to come at her with things that didn't even make sense really give Gong Yimo a headache.

The Empress Dowager seemed to know that Gong Yimo was hard-headed and wouldn't give in, but she still wanted to push her, so she sneered.

"If you don't want to see Yan'er off, so be it! I'll just pretend I don't have a granddaughter like you. But...Yan'er has been in love with Gong Jue for a long time. Jue'er is most obedient to your word, so as long as you can convince him to see her off, I...will let you go!"

The empress Dowager was still slightly sincere when she said this. Historically, cases like Long Hanyan who had no parents were generally seen off by the husband before burial. For those who are unwed, there are also cases where their brothers take over, but that would never end up with Gong Jue!

So, when the Empress put out this final request, it could be regarded as the final tricky compromise.
