Longcheng Tingxue didn't expect that she wouldn't be able to use any of her lines! The furious Emperor cooled down after Gong Jue's words, and he even showed a sense of pity to Gong Jue after he recalled a past memory!
What should she do now?
Gong Sheng sighed, "It's my fault, this jade pendant is now yours!"
Gong Jue glanced at the jade pendant in Longcheng Tingxue's hands and smiled.
"There's no need for that, father. Since the princess chose this jade pendant, it now belongs to the princess."
After he said that, he went straight back to his seat, leaving everything behind!
Longcheng Tingxue was really about to cry, and at this moment, the Emperor said, "Since the princess chose the wrong one, nevermind. There are so many other items here, might as well choose again."
When he said this, he felt rather embarrassed. At first, he still hoped that Longcheng Tingxue would choose Gong Jue, but seeing that Gong Jue was so reluctant, he instantly rejected the jade pendant in her hand, along with the guilt he felt from the past, he couldn't help but think that since Gong Jue didn't want to do so, then just forget about it. He shouldn't force his own son, who has always been good to him, because of an outsider!
After all, this matter started because of her, so she should be the one to solve it.
It's two totally different matters, how could she bundle both state affairs and her own private affairs together?
But just as she was about to excuse herself and leave, Gong Che walked over.
He looked at Gong Yimo with a gentle smile.
"Princess, free to go on a walk with me?"
His sudden invite caught Gong Yimo by surprise, as Gong Che had been so busy recently, and he didn't seem very strange around her, it made her believe that Gong Che had really let go, so her attitude towards him gradually turned back to normal, like the old days, there wasn't any awkwardness between them.
"Sure!"
She smiled and walked to the Imperial Garden with Gong Che.
The moon tonight was shining brightly, misty, with a hint of coldness, Gong Che left behind all his attendants, and walked into a beautiful plum garden with Gong Yimo.
The plum blossoms had all bloomed.
