Rebirth of the Tyrant's Pet: Regent Prince is too Fierce

Chapter 417: Shocking the Entire City (2)

Feng Qi Palace.

The empress was naturally very happy. She owed a lot to Gong Yi Mo’s generosity and there was no reason for her to target her. But...she remembered those phoenix shaped eyes, and became somewhat hesitant.

Shui Xian who was by her side, asked, “Is madam not happy?”

The empress shook her head. “In two months, Che Er’s marriage will be set with the Su family’s daughter. I’m worried that...her return will change the situation, since Che Er...will be returning soon as well.”

Shui Xian froze for a second before comforting her with a smile. “Don’t worry! His highness is no longer the same as he was before. He has great prestige with the citizens. He wouldn’t do something so unreasonable!”

“Hopefully...” as she said this, she ordered, “I’m afraid this won’t be a smooth road to travel on. Give them my order. If it really is Gong Yi Mo, then bring her back secretly. I don’t believe she will be safe traveling on horse here by herself.”

“Understood.”

The empress dowager, the empress, and several princes all sent men and horses to search for her, but it was unsure whether they were welcoming back or planning to kill her.

The originally peaceful nobles had also become nervous as well.

Su Miao Lan’s wedding attire was placed to the side, already prepared early on. It was occasionally brought out to add some extra decorations, but when she heard the news today, she just couldn’t peacefully continue sewing.

Was Gong Yi Mo really back? Didn’t she die outside? How was she back?

Su Miao Lan had a deep hatred towards Gong Yi Mo. This all started from her taking the embroidery, to the tea party, only intensifying as time went on.

She had thought someone who betrayed their country like this would never return. She had no idea that she would dare show her face again. It was truly infuriating!

She slammed her hand onto the table in frustration, thinking to herself at the same time that it was fine. Even if she recovered her title as a princess, Su Miao Lan was still the crown prince’s fiancee, the future empress of the country! What was there for her to be scared about!

But deep down, she was still looking forward to it. Wasn’t there a lot of people trying to steal Gong Yi Mo? If only she weren’t able to enter the palace!

Although it was only scattered lightning at first, now everyone was sure of her identity! News sure traveled fast!

Of course, there were still some that were unsure and others who held a faint glimmer of hope. Gong Jue himself belonged to the former group!

He wasn’t sure. Was sister truly back? Had she come up with a solution to the problem?

Gong Jue heartbeats sped up and slowed down, one moment hoping it’d really be her, yet also worried that it wasn’t actually her! This kind of back and forth feeling was one that he had experienced many times already!

Gong Yi Mo sat on the rock outside the city enjoying her dessert. However, she was surrounded by a crowd of people!

The desserts were brought by them. Not only that, but they brought wine and vegetables. The bendy rules of the palace were too strict. But the citizens truly loved her and were excited for her to be back! Watching her gaze, full of warmth and joy. For a stone-faced person like Gong Yi Mo, she almost felt embarrassed.

The large crowd of people surrounding her included even the guards stationed in the city. This was the eastern gate of the capital, also the most populated and used gate of the capital. The people who came and went to see Gong Yi Mo gathered together. If this continued, it would cause a blockade!

“Princess! You’re really back! Back then we knew that you’d come back eventually!”

There was also a slightly dull student who watched Gong Yi Mo, his eyes filled with admiration.

“Yes yes! Princess, we’re so glad you’re back. Da Yu is your home, you’ve become skinny after being gone for so many years.

There were mothers who were concerned.

She wasn’t skinny. It was just that her baby fat had receded. She didn’t actually become skinner!

“Princess, you’re so beautiful! You must be the number one beauty in the world! Now that you’re back, you shouldn’t leave again. If someone tries to harm you again, we’ll protect you!”

“Yes! We all support you!”
