Chapter 309: Words As Sharp As A Blade (2)
Gong Yimo patted her cheeks and sighed. “From what I can see, you have aspirations as high as the heavens, and yet your life is only as thin as paper. The emperor would even come to the cold palace to seek you, the life of riches is already at your fingertips. If you wanted to refuse, then so be it, but you still had to drag your son into it. Listen, can you hear how worried he is outside?”
Gong Yimo grabbed her shoulders to settle her down so she could listen. Jin Yun was already trying to break through the door at this time. He was so anxious as if he was worried that Gong Yimo would do something bad to her.
Seeing him like this made Yun Jin feel ashamed for the first time.
Gong Yimo picked up the dagger and put it into her hands.
“Here, I’ll give this back to you. Whether you want to kill yourself or anyone else, it’s not my business anymore.”
Then, she patted the dust off her hands and got up to open the door.
After the door was opened, Jin Yun rushed in immediately. He didn’t even spare a glance at Gong Yimo and rushed straight towards Madam Yun Jin who was sitting on the ground.
“Imperial Mother, Imperial Mother? What happened to you?!”
As if she had just been shaken out of a dream back into reality, Yun Jin took Jin Yun’s hand and looked at Gong Yimo with fear. She hid behind his back and quietly asked, “Yun’er, have you been living a hard life outside?!”
Jin Yun was confused, and quickly responded, “No, not at all.”
She hadn’t even said anything yet and her son was already refuting it. It was clear to see that he really was lying to her. Yun Jin’s eyes were filled with tears once more. How much of a fool had she been? For more than ten years she had been in the cold palace, immersed in those ridiculous thoughts, and even ignored the most important people around her.
Today, if this person did not shake her awake, she did not know how long she would still be muddle-headed for.
Seeing her cry, Jin Yun was no longer worried and hurried to comfort her, while Yun Jin took a glance at Gong Yimo, and actually stood up to walk towards her.
“My lord.”
She bowed to her, and with tears in her eyes, said, “My life is already in ruins, I have no other hopes. I only pray that you can help my son. I had been wrong, but it is too late for regrets. Please, please help him!”
She thought that if she could say such words to her, and would try so hard to shake her, to wake her up, that she would definitely help her son. But who knew that Gong Yimo would sneer at her?
“If he needs help, then you can help him yourself!”
She still did not move. Gong Yimo had said that because she just wanted her to make the move herself. But unfortunately, some people are just too used to being weak, they can’t just stand up because of a few words.
She wasn’t a savior, nor was she her son. There’s no way she’s going to pin a burden on herself!
When she saw Gong Yimo leave, Yun Jin was out of it for a long time. She couldn’t understand. Clearly, she had admitted her own wrongs, so why did that person look so dissatisfied?
But she would never know that with a weak character like her own, she would still subconsciously try to rely on others even if she had been enlightened. If Gong Yimo could be satisfied with this, then she would really be possessed.
But it seemed like Yun Jin admired Gong Yimo very much. She believed that the other party must be a counselor with great abilities. She could not make her angry with her own weak character, so she wiped away her tears and urged Jin Yun to go look for her.
Jin Yun sighed. “Imperial Mother, she is my friend. It will be fine.”
Only then did Yun Jin feel slightly relieved. Then, she remembered what Gong Yimo told her before and her body was stiff. Perhaps she could not endure the impact of her words.
Jin Yun felt a little uneasy. “Imperial Mother, what did she say to you?”
As soon as he said this, Yun Jin felt like she was going to cry again. But fortunately, after being scared by Gong Yimo once, there was already a shadow left in her heart. After crying a little, she stopped. She just told him she was a good person, and for Jin Yun to treat her well.
In Jintang Palace, Jin Sheng drove all the women out, and even swept all the prized porcelain to the ground! He still could not suppress that raging fire in his heart!
Who is that woman supposed to be protecting?!
