Hua Rong's gaze turned cold as she spoke: "And Mr. Gongsun said that if he secretly took me away, the king would definitely hold a grudge, and then he would suffer the consequences."

“I am not wrong!” Gongsun Ming said in a cold tone, “The whole world belongs to the king, and all people within the borders are his subjects.”

“No!” Hua Rong waved his hand. “Mr. Gongsun, before I met you, I met the King. The King said that as long as you were willing to take me away, he would let me go. Didn’t I tell you that?”

"He's lying to you!" Gongsun Ming's lips were pale, but his emotions became much more agitated, and the dark power within him completely gained the upper hand in that instant.

"He is the king!"

"Gongsun Ming!" Hua Rong shouted.

She was calm inside, but her words became increasingly sharp.

"Is there any point in deceiving yourself? You always blame me for abandoning you to go to the palace, yet you choose to forget your own cowardice. Ha, what kind of logic is that! Remember this, the reason we've become like this is because of you!"

She slowly backed away, speaking lightly, word by word: "You were the one who gave up on me first! Jiang Huarong, who loved you, died under the willow tree three years ago, the moment you said 'no'."

Turning around, Hua Rong's expression became calm.

After the original owner possessed the body, she also captured Hua Rong's memories that had not completely dissipated, and Hua Rong naturally knew this as well.

Without the original owner, perhaps the world would never have known about Jiang Huarong.

Or perhaps all that will be remembered is that the Prime Minister's daughter, Hua Rong, died of illness in the Prime Minister's residence on the terrace in the first year of Yong'an, at the age of fifteen.

Hua Rong herself felt neither sympathy for her nor for Gongsun Ming.

She loved the wrong person.

One who only loves themselves.

More than that, she wanted to see what would happen after that mysterious dark power suppressed the Heavenly Dao of this world.

Oh.

She would never admit that it was out of sympathy for Di Bing, who had been abandoned by Heaven.
