Gu Yunhe was confused. He was suffering from too much pain to think it through.
"Lord Ling, didn't you just say that I am like a three-year-old boy who always turns to mother? Mom can't do anything in the court either!" Gu Yunhe said.
He had said that he wanted to tell his mother, because he had been so violently beaten. He was so furious that he just said everything. He had no real intention of telling this to his mother. His mother was nice and concerned about him, but he knew clearly that his mother was not capable enough.
Even back at the Gu Mansion a while ago, when Madame Gu was healthy. His mother had not been able to bring down Madame Gu. Let alone here in the court.
So all he could do right now was to blame himself.
