Jin Yun tightly held onto her hand. “No! I’m useful, you can use me as a hostage! Let’s go through the west gates, hurry!”
“It’s useless.”
Gong Yi Mo raised her head and smiled, finally having realized something after the process of this entire chase. To catch her, Jin Sheng gave no regards to Jin Yun’s life.
Even if the entire west gate was filled with a bunch of Jin Yun’s, Jin Yun was not the emperor. Under the mand of the emperor, the men guarding the west gate would never let her out. Jin Yun ing alone would only harm him.
“How is it useless?” Jin Yun also wasn’t sure why he was so adamant on this, but he did know that once he let go of this hand, he might never see her again!
“All of this happened because of mother consort! I have the responsibility of protecting you, even if I must use my life!”
“Over here!”
Someone had finally found Gong Yi Mo and Jin Yun. Without any time to catch their breaths, Gong Yi Mo continued to evade the guards with Jin Yun.
Gong Yi Mo killed many people along the way, narrowingly avoiding many dangers!
Jin Yun began leading the way. He didn’t believe that it was impossible for him to safely get Gong Yi Mo out of the city!
Seeing the west gate only being closer, Jin Yun hurriedly rushed forward only to be stopped by soldiers, holding swords at them!
“His highness has ordered us to kill anyone that tries to exit through the gates!”
Jin Yun backed up a few steps, only to bump into Gong Yi Mo. More soldiers were drawing in from behind them. If they didn’t escape now, then they’d definitely lose their lives here!
“I demand for the head of the gate guards to e here!” Jin Yun demanded loudly.
The head of the west gate guards was one of his men. He wasn’t convinced that there wasn’t a single person on his side!
A burly man quickly appeared in front of Jin Yun and knelt down.
Although he was one of Jin Yun’s supporters, Jin Yun was not the emperor! Now that he was going against the emperor to protect a spy from Lin Country, there were only more reasons to not open the gate, unless he didn’t want his life anymore!
“Sire!”
Jin Yun wasted no time, stepping up and grabbing his shoulders, frantically yelling, “Open the gates! I want to leave!”
“Sire, please go back! She is a spy from Lin! His Majesty has long declared his orders. Whoever opens these doors, will have their entire family and relatives slaughtered! I truly cannot do this sire!”
Hearing Jin Yun’s demands, the head of the west gate pleaded with him. He had already mitted treason by not immediately capturing them. If he were to open the gates as well, even the elderly and the children in his family would be killed!
From behind they heard the steps of soldiers. Gong Yi Mo’s sword was still stained in blood! She swept her gaze over the crowd of hundreds of people. Even if she tried to kill her way through, she’d end up getting surrounded half way through! This door, it seemed like she could not escape!
Just as Gong Yi Mo turned around to leave, Jin Yun desperately grabbed onto her!
“Where are you going?”
Gong Yi Mo wiped some sweat off of her forehead, drily laughing at the hostile spears and swords pointed their way.
“They’re almost caught up, I can’t stay here much longer! Since this place is inescapable, I’ll e up with another plan!”
But what other options were there? If she tried to leave through any other gate, she’d immediately be surrounded and immobilized before they’d capture her alive!
Gong Yi Mo gently brushed aside Jin Yun’s hand. “Stop following me. You have a bright future to look forward to. If you e with me, won’t all your years of hard work have been for nothing?! Go back. Just say that I’ve been holding you hostage this entire time! Go back!”
Her eyes became colder. She definitely couldn’t let Jin Yun continue with her!
The sound of the guards chasing after them grew increasingly louder. Even Jin Yun could hear the danger approaching!
If Yi Mo ended up in the hands of the emperor, the oute would be disastrous! He…he couldn’t let that happen!
Having gained some sort of determination, Jin Yun suddenly said, “I’ll open the gate for you!”
Gong Yi Mo watched as he went to find the keys from the west gate’s head. She quickly stopped him, furiously asking, “Have you gone mad?! If you open this gate, the emperor won’t forgive you!”
Jin Yun pushed her hand away and smiled gently. “Isn’t it just the slaughtering of my kins? My father is my kin. If he isn’t afraid, then why should I be?”
