Chapter 248: If You want to Marry Me, then Marry Me (1)
When Gong Jue got the news, he wanted to leave immediately.
His sharp eyes glanced at the anxious Empress and coldly smiled. There are so many people waiting for Gong Che to arrive, yet Gong Che was at his house right now. How amusing!
Just when he was about to get up and tell the Empress that he had to leave, someone"s voice sounded.
“The Crown Prince has arrived.”
How did he returned so fast? Gong Jue felt that something strange was going on. He thought about it and sat back down. The ladies looked somewhat anxious when they were waiting for the Crown Prince to arrive. But when his arrival was announced, they all turned their heads and looked towards the entrance. After a while, they only saw a figure dressed in white. He looked like he had rushed here. His hair was a mess and he looked intoxicated.
“Che"er!”
The Empress shouted anxiously. She hurriedly walked down from her Phoenix chair.
She had never seen Gong Che looked so depressed.
Gong Che"s jet-black hair was draped over his shoulder, his eyes looked blurry, and the corner of his mouth was curved into a sneer. He was originally very gentle and cautious. But now, his dissoluteness and dejection had unexpectedly gave off an enchanting feeling.
He wasn"t happy. Even though he didn"t cry, grief and pain filled his heart.
“Oh…Mother Empress?”
Gong Che raised the wine bottle in his hand and squinted at it. He tried to see the person who was walking towards him. Gong Che"s jade white face was flushed red, his eyes were moist and glossy. When he smiled, his appearance made him looked breathtaking.
“Mother Empress…you want to pick a wife for me?”
His words made a lot of the young ladies blushed.
Originally, some people were surprised and didn"t approve of Gong Che when he appeared looking like this. But a beauty was a beauty. Now that he was drunk, he looked more alive than how he usually appeared. It made him look more stunning and outstanding, none of the ladies were able to look away from him.
All the n.o.ble ladies looked eager. The Crown Prince has secured his position as the Crown Prince of the East Palace. As long as he doesn"t make any mistakes, no one would be able to shake his position in a few years. So if they marry him, it means that they will become the future Empress!
Gong Che"s words made them blush. But at the same time, they straightened their backs and tried their best to show him their most beautiful side.
Unfortunately, Gong Che couldn"t see or hear anything right now. There was only one thing in his heart, one sentence…
Gong Yimo had actually wished him to marry and have a son…hahaha. She wants him to marry someone else and have a son!
The Empress was shocked by his att.i.tude. She quickly said, “Stop messing around and have a seat.” She called for the servants to help him sit down.
The banquet was hosted in the main hall. The n.o.ble ladies were seated on the left side while the princes and heirs were seated on the right; the first seat on the right was a.s.signed to Gong Che himself.
Gong Che raised his head and poured a mouthful of wine into his mouth. When Gong Jue saw the drunk prince seated on the right side of the hall, he sarcastically smiled.
Gong Che stumbled towards the right side where the men were seated without waiting for anyone to help him to his seat.
Meanwhile, Gong Jue could feel this man"s gaze on him, so he raised his head and looked up. It turns out that rather than going to his seat, Gong Che was heading straight in his direction. The drunk prince laid on Gong Jue"s table and drank another mouthful of wine. Then, he leaned towards Gong Jue and whispered:
“Do you know…I failed?”
His words made the Gong Jue"s pupil shrink. He squinted his eyes to conceal his inner turmoil.
He failed? He confessed to Royal Sister?!
However, Gong Che wasn"t aware of how he had shocked Gong Jue. Gong Che"s eyes looked extremely dim as he looked at Gong Jue and laughed. It seemed like he was mocking Gong Jue.
“She said…she won"t do anything that will violate her morals. Since she didn"t accept me, she won"t accept you either! Hahahaha!”
