Chapter 554 Gong Jue is sad (1)

Who will she choose?

Longcheng Tingxue’s gaze swept over each item one by one, with a smile.

She already made up her mind, that one!

At this moment, her gaze suddenly lit up, she stretched out her hand, and this made many of the people’s hearts skip a beat! They even held their breath!

But she suddenly stopped! Her eyes widened slightly, she seemed slightly panicked?

Everyone waited anxiously, wondering what she was about to do.

They were too far away from each other, the Emperor couldn’t see which item she was going to pick. It was obvious that she had already made up her mind when she started to dance. Why does she seem like she’s hesitating now?

Cold sweat broke out on Longcheng Tingxue’s forehead at this time. Right under her hand, it was that dragon-shaped jade pendant, but why was there an exact same jade pendant under it? !

As time passed, everyone in the hall started to grow restless. Many people wanted to know who she picked, but why is she hesitating for so long? Does she not fancy any of them?

Even Gong Cheng thought this way. In order to help Princess Lou Ye out of this awkward situation, he laughed and said, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t have someone in mind, I, I have some more options!”

Of course she had someone in mind? ! If the Emperor held another banquet like this, the people here would definitely not be there, so how could she choose Gong Jue then?!

She gritted her teeth and just tried her luck! The two jade pendants were exactly the same, no one would be able to tell them apart anyways!

So she held the jade pendant tightly in her hand, and said with a forced smile, “Your Majesty, I’ve made my choice!”

Gong Cheng smiled, “Whose item is it?”

At this moment, the eunuch on the side stepped forward and took a look.

“Your Majesty, this is your jade pendant.”

One sentence, a shocking revelation!

The Empress was stunned, before she was fuming with anger!

Gong Cheng also froze in the spot, he didn’t know how to feel about this.

All the men there were shocked! They didn’t expect such a charming young girl to fall for a fifty year old Emperor?

They all couldn’t help but glance at Gong Cheng. Indeed, Gong Cheng is quite attractive for his age, but still, with his age, he could be her father!

Gong Yimo spit out the alcohol in her mouth! Fortunately, everyone’s attention wasn’t on her side, Gong Jue smiled and handed her a handkerchief.

“Princess, you’re so careless.”

Gong Yimo raised her gaze and looked at Gong Jue’s dark eyes, chills suddenly ran down her back.

She’s 100% sure that Gong Jue was the one behind all this! He must have known about the Emperor’s plan and had prepared for it! That’s why he could give the exact same item as what the emperor had offered. The eunuch in the palace must have been bought over by him, so even if it was Gong Jue’s, the eunuch would say that it belonged to the Emperor, how shady!

Gong Yimo felt so uncomfortable under his fixated gaze, she quickly turned back and ignored him!

The Emperor’s first thought was, is this one of Lou Ye’s schemes? But there is no need to sacrifice a princess!

Upon hearing the eunuch’s words, Longcheng Tingxue was the most shocked!

Why is it the emperor’s? It’s Gong Jue’s!

At this moment, the jade pendant in her hand felt so burdensome that she just wanted to throw it away!

She can’t let it just end this way. If she doesn’t explain herself clearly, not only will the Empress see her as a thorn in the eye, but the Emperor will also be cautious of her, so even if it was embarrassing, she must defend herself.
