Since she can’t deal with Gong Yimo this time, she could only think of other ways, and being seen off by Gong Jue could also be regarded as Yan’er’s final wish. With this, it seems she still has some kindness in her.

Only, Gong Yimo didn’t think this was acceptable. “So, you want me to convince Gong Jue to see her off if I don’t do it?”

The Empress Dowager sneered. “What, you can’t do that? No matter what, Yan’er is still the cousin of you and Gong Jue. You have the obligation to see her off. If you can’t even do this, then what rights do you have to be a princess? With such a cold heart, are you really not afraid of being stabbed behind the back by the people?!”

This was also her last request. If Gong Yimo couldn’t even do this, then she would be disregarding the Empress Dowager. She never wanted to mention this, because even though Gong Jue was obligated to see Long Hanyan off, he still couldn’t be considered a mourner, and just a guest to accompany her.

But when she thought of how much Long Hanyan liked Gong Jue before she died, the Empress Dowager couldn’t swallow back her anger and just had to use that matter to make things difficult for Gong Yimo!

Gong Yimo suddenly laughed. She pulled out a bottle of wine from her bosom and took a swig!

In fact, the best choice was for her to accept the Empress Dowager’s request, because she had just accepted her title. It was not advisable to cause any trouble before the conferment ceremony. The best choice is to have patience and concede.

Besides, it wasn’t a loss for her to have Gong Jue see Long Hanyan’s spirit off. She could also temporarily let the Empress Dowager rest in peace and deal with her next time!

But the thought of someone who didn’t realize their relationship mistaking Gong Jue as Long Hanyan’s husband or close relative made her feel uncomfortable!

Clearly, Long Hanyan was the one who tried to kill her, so why did she have to be blamed for her death?! Why did she have to swallow down this abuse?!

Gong Yimo couldn’t understand it.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager could no longer hold herself back! She had already backed down to this point, is Gong Yimo still thinking to refuse?!

“Gong Yimo! Don’t be so insolent! You’ll have to marry someone later, so whether you’re married off to another country or to some official’s son, I will still have some say in it!”

She couldn’t beat her in martial force, so there’s no reason to oppress her with power. The Emperor will definitely back her up, she could only suppress her with her marriage! Otherwise, she would be uncontrollable!

She wanted to see for herself how Gong Yimo could choose. If she really did offend her to death, then she would marry her off to some domineering barbaric man, or simply send her off to a small country to marry an old man!

The more she thought about it, the more smug she became. She asked, “Have you figured out how you are going to choose? Will you see Yan’er off yourself, or will you let Gong Jue go?”

Gong Yimo’s eyes gleamed and she slowly said.

“I will attend her funeral.”

Her tone was a bit strange. The Empress Dowager was just about to laugh proudly at her and mock her.

But Gong Yimo actually tilted her wine sack and poured the contents all over Long Hanyan’s body!

What is she doing?!

While the Empress Dowager was still puzzled, Gong Yimo looked down at Long Hanyan’s corpse, a ghastly glow in her eyes.

She took out a fire starter and threw it down, lighting it in an instant! Shocking everyone on the scene!

Thanks to all the silk placed beneath Long Hanyan’s body by the Empress Dowager, it took only an instant to engulf Long Hanyan’s figure with flames, and this scene was burned into their hearts on this winter day!

Has Gong Yimo gone mad?!

She actually burned Long Hanyan’s corpse at the entrance of her own palace! It should be known that it was taboo for a corpse not to be buried!

And for all these years Dayu has existed…No, don’t even speak about Dayu! In all of history, none of them had ever seen anyone as terrifying as Gong Yimo!

She must be out of her mind!!
