Her son didn’t know? Yun Jin resentfully said, “That evil woman said she is carrying your child!”
Gong Yi Mo was originally planning to explain, but seeing as Yun Jin was unappreciative of her kindness, why not make her angrier!
With that thought in her head, she walked to the two of them and held Jin Yun’s hand, cheerfully saying, “Why not…I want to marry him! This is your son’s first child! If Jin Yun succeeds the throne, this child will be the crown prince!”
“Presumptuous!” Yun Jin’s voice had changed tones. Were all the struggles she had to suffer through just so that wench’s child could marry her son?
The more agitated she seemed, the more pleased Gong Yi Mo became. Jin Yun drew back to reality, looking deeply into Gong Yi Mo’s eyes, but still not pulling back his hand. He simply whispered to her,
“Stop causing a mess…” sweetly, but helplessly.
Gong Yi Mo unhappily whispered back, “She started the mess!”
Jin Yun sighed, now turning to his mother consort…
“Mother consort, Yi Mo was lying. She isn’t pregnant, we…are not like what you think.”
Gong Yi Mo made a face at Jin Yun. “I never said it, she was the one who thought that on her own!”
But Yun Jin didn’t refute her, only intently staring at Jin Yun before asking him a question.
“Then, can you say that you don’t like her in the slightest?”
Yun Jin’s finger pointed directly at Gong Yi Mo.
“Naturally…” he wouldn’t like her…
Unsure of why, because this wasn’t the first time he had to say this, but it only became harder for him to speak those words.
“Naturally what?” Yun Jin’s eyes shone coldly, her every step pressing deeply. What a strange atmosphere to display in the middle of the cold palace!
“I do not like her.” Jin Yun slowly spoke, sighing deeply as he finished.
But as soon as those words left his mouth, he felt as if all of the energy from his limbs had been drained empty. His chest stiffly began to hurt with a mighty impulse to tell every being in this world that what he said was a lie!
With her motherly instinct, Yun Jin felt almost certain that Jin Yun was lying!
Her heart froze over…but she couldn’t expose him right now! As she calmed down, she was actually quite intelligent, she saw Gong Yi Mo’s expression and knew that Gong Yi Mo hadn’t realized her son’s true feelings. If she were to expose him now and contribute to Gong Yi Mo’s success, it would make her feel regret enough to make her intestines turn green*!
TN*: Deep, deep regret.
Why? Yun Er’s most important thing thus far, was it not her, his mother consort?
As soon as the misunderstanding seemed to be resolved, Jin Yun immediately took Gong Yi Mo with him out of the palace. Gong Yi Mo, naturally reluctant to leave, hurriedly went with him. The only people at the cold palace now were the ten guards and the beautiful Yun Gui Fei*.
Tn*: Gui Fei is her consort title.
Gong Yi Mo glanced behind, adding a curious statement of her own. “Your mother seems gentle and kind. How did she receive the respect of so many guards to follow her orders?”
Of course, her words and actions were always fearless and brazen. That statement confirmed that whether or not the guards were sent by orders of the emperor to protect her, they were on her side.
Yet when Jin Yun heard her words, his face immediately darkened.
How did his mother consort make those people loyal to her? He didn’t want to tell her the reason!
Thankfully, Gong Yi Mo was only asking with a carefree tone. She took a step ahead of him, her ink black hair and snowy white fur coat’s color contrasted each other, revealing a bit of her soft skin. Jin Yun was suddenly reminded of the words his mother had spoken.
“If she truly had a child…how great that would be.”
Yi Mo felt nothing towards him. Even if she were to be drunk, such a thing wouldn’t be possible.
Thinking of this, his eyes turned downcast and his heart sank. An unwilling feeling rose up, but he quickly suppressed these feelings down.
