The sudden voice pulled Gong Yi Mo back to reality like waking up from a dream!
She gave Jin Yun a strange look, seeing him place the brocade box back into his pocket, coldly glaring at the person who had barged in.
“What happened?”
Emperor Yu Heng, the master, even the servants of the empress, had all been observed carefully by him! Who could still have done this! To have the ability to surround him?
Jin Yun was the next heir to the Yu Heng emperor’s throne!
The person who came in kneeled on the ground, stating:
“It was not an outsider, it was…Madam Gui Fei!”
“Mother consort?”
Jin Yun was shocked. Why would Mother consort send people to surround him?
He hurriedly lept off the stage and headed outside! Gong Yi Mo tried to follow along, only for Jin Yun to turn around and stop her in place.
“The situation is still unclear, do not go out!”
He knew that if it was indeed his mother consort, then she wouldn’t be able to raise a hand against him. Therefore, she must be trying to target Gong Yi Mo.
He seriously looked at Gong Yi Mo, his eyes full of words that he didn’t have the time to say.
So close, he was so close to saying those words! But that was alright. After he solved this situation, there would be more than enough time!
At this moment, the person who came in seemed nervous. “Sire, please hurry outside and inspect the situation. We didn’t bring many people with us. I’m afraid they’re planning to barge in!”
Only now was Jin Yun able to turn away, disheartenedly leaving to go outside.
Yet his hand was tightly held by Gong Yi Mo.
“Wait!”
As he turned around, he saw Gong Yi Mo speedily handing him his golden crown, using her own clothes to carefully wipe it down. She raised her eyes to meet his and smiled.
“You’re the future Yu Heng Emperor! You can’t go out looking like this!”
With her staring at him like this, her eyes full of countless stars in that moment, he felt his heart throb.
“Hmm…kneel down,” she said quietly.
Without another word, Jin Yun kneeled down in front of her.
Kneeling wasn’t supposed to be a graceful movement, yet whenever he did it, it was always pleasing to the eye. It was probably because his dancing had achieved a certain level that even raising his arm or his leg would be elegant, as pleasing as the floating clouds or the flowing water.
Gong Yi Mo touched his waterfall-like hair. Underneath the sky, each hair seemed to reflect the light of the moon. Using her fingers, she quickly put up his hair back into the crown!
But to Jin Yun, it felt long and slow. He could smell the fragrance from Gong Yi Mo’s body, he could faintly feel the touch of her fingers as she bent it back and forth. Each time she combed through his hair, it seemed to soothe his spirit, allowing him to calm down, and filling his heart with yet another emotion.
This moment, he felt, was romantic…
Soldiers were surrounding the outskirts of the hall, there was a great deal of anxiety, yet she was still protecting his image, combing his hair up for him.
Perhaps that wasn’t the important part. The important thing was that she was using this short amount of time to calm him, so that he wouldn’t act recklessly.
“Don’t worry, it won’t be anything serious.”
Jin Yun was worried for her. He stood up and nodded at her, quietly reassuring.
Gong Yi Mo shook her head, smiling gently and said,
“What could happen to me?”
Yes, she was right. What could happen to her? Just what problem could stump her?
