Ch.427 Encirclement of the Imperial Guard (2)

He had already fallen many times at Gong Jue’s hand! Sometimes he even thought that if Gong Jue hadn’t been so busy with the bank, if he hadn’t been caught by him, then Gong Jue wouldn’t even pay him any attention!

That’s why he could strike again and again, but fail each and every time...He hated this knowledge so much that his face twisted up.

Gong Jue! He is his unbeatable nemesis!

“Move out!”

He strongly ordered the evacuation of his people. As for Long Hanyan, he actually left her behind. No...he didn’t care anymore. That fool exposed herself, and he would only be implicated if he went out. If he ran, then he could at least save himself.

Moreover, he didn’t believe that Gong Jue would actually dare to kill Long Hanyan after learning her identity!

Seeing that the assassins were retreating further and further away, leaving the ground littered with the corpses of their own men, more and more imperial guards came until they put the entire scene under control! Long Hanyan looked at the densely packed army of guards below and finally felt a little scared. Gong Shi actually dared to leave her behind!

And now, the only ones left are the few experts, but they were all put under control, and nobody dared to resist anymore.

Gong Yimo smiled.

“So you finally know fear? But isn’t that too late?”

She could feel Long Hanyan’s body tense up, and she couldn’t help but mock her.

Long Hanyan gulped. She was scared of Gong Yimo, but she also hated her! She would rather die than plead with her!

So, unconsciously, she looked towards Gong Jue. With that, she felt bitter, resentful, and even more, infatuated.

“Ninth Imperial Brother, please...let me go! I...I did al this for you!”

Gong Yimo thought it was strange, but she finally figured out why Long Hanyan had been yelling bloody murder at her ever since finding out her name. Unexpectedly, it was all for Gong Jue!

And Gong Jue, who had been staring at the imperial guards, watching them clean up the corpses, couldn’t help but be distracted by her words.

“For me?”

He glanced lightly at her, then he frowned.

“Do I even know you?”

He didn’t care about Long Hanyan in the slightest, but after hearing of her identity, there was no way he wouldn’t know who she was. But now that she changed her face, why would he admit to knowing her and giving the Empress Dowager leverage?

His words were like a tapered sword! It instantly pierced through Long Hanyan’s heart and made it bleed! Her face paled and darkened while her chest began heaving violently!

If she wasn’t in this hostage situation, then she would have gone mad!

This is all because of Gong Yimo! If it wasn’t for her, how could Gong Jue be so cold to her! Wasn’t she pretty? Didn’t she come from a good family background? If it wasn’t for Gong Yimo, how could Gong Jue not have eyes for her?

This bitch! Seducing her own brother and still having the face to stand here. What a travesty!

But she didn’t dare to provoke Gong Yimo right now. What if she killed her?

She had to get into the palace and get the Empress Dowager to stand up for her!

So after her complexion changed a few times, she stopped begging Gong Jue and instead turned fiercely to Gong Yimo.

“I’m not afraid of you! You’re just a treasonous scoundrel who ran from her country! I dare you to confront me like this in front of His Majesty! We’ll see if the Emperor will punish me!”

Gong Yimo laughed. “Of course the Emperor won’t punish you.” At most, he would just give her some harmless punishment.

“But—I will!”

Her lowered voice sounded carefree, but only Long Hanyan could hear the subtle killing intent hidden within.

“I told you, didn’t I?”

Gong Yimo looked at her fair neck and narrowed her eyes.

“I said that I would kill you the next time I saw you!”
