The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the water in front of the Jiuchen Valley, sparkling and reflecting each other...
Although the trip to the palace gate was done in a low-key manner, it still attracted the attention of the people in the Old Chen Valley. They all stopped what they were doing and talked in low voices, guessing who was traveling.
"Why is there a carriage this time?"
"I don't know. Young Master Jiao just left some time ago. I don't know which Young Master is coming out of the palace gate this time."
"Did something happen to Young Master Jiao outside?"
"I don't think so. Maybe the young ladies from the palace want to go out for fun!"
"Don't worry about it, don't worry about it, Aunt Wang, your pancakes are burnt!"
"Oh, my pancakes!"
…
Gong Yaozheng was sitting in the carriage and smelled the smell of fried pancakes. I have to say, it was quite fragrant.
She also wanted to ride a horse with Gong Yuanzheng, but Gong Yuanzheng didn't want to, so it was better for her to sit in the carriage obediently!
As the carriage stopped, his slender fingers opened the curtain: "Sister, we're at the dock!"
Gong Yuanzheng changed into navy blue clothes and looked tall and tall. This is the suit of clothes made of Luquan brocade that Gong Shangjiao gave him last time. It is invulnerable to weapons, water and fire. It is better to be careful when going out.
Gong Yuanzheng took Gong Yuanzheng's hand, jumped out of the carriage, straightened his clothes and got on the boat.
Gong Yuanzheng ordered people to put the carriage and luggage on the boat, and then followed him, his face no longer showing the urgency and nervousness he had in Yu Palace.
He put one hand behind his back and looked at the sky outside. A white dove flew out of the Wanhua Tower. An evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. His sister was indeed right.
As he flipped his wrist, a silver light shot out, and the white dove flying in mid-air shook twice and fell into the water.
"Let someone fish it out!"
"yes!"
Gong Yuanzheng turned around and entered the cabin. Gong Yuanzheng had already made tea: "How is it?"
"As my sister expected, there is indeed Wufeng in Wanhua Tower!" Gong Yuanzheng smiled and picked up a cup of tea and sat down immediately.
"Stopped?"
"nature!"
"It can't be stopped..."
"Sister!" Gong Yuanzheng's expression changed.
"But, we just want them to know that we thought we had stopped him!" Gong Yaozheng took a sip of tea with an incomprehensible expression.
"By the way, sister, that secret letter?"
"I forged it!"
"You're not afraid that someone who holds a sword will find out and blame you."
"I'm afraid, but it seems that Zhibian has already discovered it!" Gong Yaozheng looked at the light on in the distance with a faint tone.
"so?"
"Let's go!"
…
As the ship left the port, it was like a dragon entering the sea, riding the wind and waves...
After a while, a group of palace gate guards ran to the port. They looked at the ship that was already drifting away. They gasped and realized that they were still too late.
"Go and report to the sword bearer!" the leading guard said to the guard next to him.
"yes!"
…
When Gong Yuanzheng was packing up his clothes today, he looked furious and said calmly: "Bring more self-defense medicine, don't worry, your brother is fine!"
Gong Yuanzheng turned to look at his sister who looked calm and composed, with a face full of disbelief, but his sister nodded to her!
So, he cleaned up faster!
In the afternoon, in the Blade Holding Palace...
Gong Hongyu was handling palace affairs, and the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong. With Gong Shangjiao's current martial arts, even if he was besieged, his whereabouts would not be unknown!
So, he asked someone to bring the secret letter again...
The handwriting on the secret letter is made of fine gold, and the dark patterns on the paper are specially made by Kakunomiya, but... why is this content so familiar?
Gong Hongyu got up and entered the secret room, where various secret letters and messages were stored.
His hand traced the bookshelf, stopping at a bookshelf with a secret engraved corner, and found the secret letters sent back by the palace minister over the years.
Pulled out one from the bottom and unfolded it...
Two secret letters were spread out on the table in the secret room...
The content inside is exactly the same, not even the slightest difference...
Gong Hongyu's hand holding the secret letter trembled slightly. He was angry and funny, and his mood was mixed, happy and worried.
Fortunately, Gong Shangjiao's serious injury was fake. What is worrying is that now the two Zheng Gong siblings have left the palace.
"Here comes someone!" Gong Hongyu came out of the secret room, looked at the setting sun, and sent someone to intercept him just in case.
The wind blew in through the crack of the secret room door, which was not closed tightly, and lifted up a corner of the secret letter.
All we can say is that this secret letter is not a fake, and the contents inside are true. However, this is a letter from seven years ago!
At that time, Gong Shangjiao had not passed the Three Realms Trial, and Gongmen had just experienced Wu Feng's massacre not long ago. He was walking on thin ice in the arena, and Gong Shangjiao was even more cautious outside.
But this cannot escape Wu Feng’s eyes...
It was an almost brutal siege. The guards and bodyguards sent to protect Gong Shangjiao were almost completely wiped out in order to give Gong Shangjiao a chance to escape! Gong Shangjiao also disappeared for a time and there was no news about him.
Later, a mysterious person sent news that Gong Shangjiao had been rescued, and then someone was sent to take him back to the palace...
Gong Shangjiao received good treatment outside... When he returned to the palace, he was fine except for some internal injuries.
When ten-year-old Gong Yuanzheng asked Gong Shangjiao about his experience in front of Gong Shangjiao's bed with his eyes red and swollen from crying, he just smiled and touched Gong Yuanzheng's head.
"The family that saved my brother has been a famous doctor for generations. He has been cured long ago. Don't cry during the expedition. If you cry again, your sister will feel sorry for you. She feels sorry for you. It will be me who will suffer! Ahem!" Gong Shangjiao His lips were very pale and he had lost a lot of weight.
After this experience, Gong Shangjiao became much sharper like a sharpened sword.
That's what Gong Yaozheng thought when he saw Gong Shangjiao.
Therefore, that secret letter was the only secret letter she had not burned, and it really came in handy this time.
The moonlight shrouded the water, glowing with little silvery lights...
A large ship was moving slowly in the moonlight. Looking from a distance, there were two figures on the deck.
Gong Yaozheng was sitting high on the deck eating mooncakes and looking at the bright moon: "I almost forgot, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival!"
With that said, he handed the half-broken mooncake to Gong Yuanzheng who was standing beside him.
Gong Yuanzheng took it, his eyes were slightly red, and his beautiful eyes shone in the moonlight.
He just heard Gong Yaozheng tell the origin of the secret letter and recalled what happened back then. That year, he almost thought he was going to lose his brother.
During the time when his brother disappeared, he cried sadly in his sister's arms. When he was tired of crying, he went to sleep, and continued to cry when he woke up.
During that time, the entire Zheng Palace was shrouded in sadness, and even Gong Yaozheng looked gloomy.
Of course, what made Gong Yuanzheng frown was that no matter how he told Gong Yuanzheng that his brother was fine, he didn't believe it. He cried and shouted to find Gong Shangjiao, but he couldn't stop him.
Gong Yuanzheng came back from his memories and looked up to see his sister looking at him with a playful expression.
Suddenly I felt a little embarrassed: "I was still young at that time and didn't know my sister's magical powers!"
So now, when Gong Yaozheng told him that Gong Shangjiao was fine, he felt relieved!
If his sister says it’s okay, then it must be okay!
Gong Yaozheng patted his side and motioned for him to sit over.
Gong Yuanzheng propped up the table with his hand, jumped up, and sat next to Gong Yuanzheng.
"Sister, there's something I don't understand!" Gong Yuanzheng took a bite of the mooncake and turned around to ask.
"you say."
"The white pigeon has obviously been beaten down by me, why do you say you can't stop it?" Gong Yuanzheng took out the sheepskin letter taken from the white pigeon's leg.
The letter read: "The palace gate is rushing for reinforcements, levy!"
"It's just five words. Can't Wu Feng afford the ink? Do you want a charity point at the palace gate?" Gong Yuanzheng mocked unceremoniously.
"Is it really only five words? Look carefully!" Gong Yaozheng reminded.
Gong Yuanzheng took a look at Gong Yuanzheng and realized that things were not simple. Facing the moonlight, he saw that the five black characters were densely engraved with characters as thin as ox hair, and the small white characters were almost invisible to the naked eye.
"It turns out that the poisoning of Jindu was really a rigorous plan by Wufeng assassins! It's true! Sister, what should we do?" Gong Yuanzheng couldn't help but look at it seriously. The small characters were in Sanskrit, saying that Jindu was to be poisoned. The Wufeng assassin over there looked for an opportunity to kill Gong Shangjiao and informed the Wufeng assassin to stop him and his sister.
Gong Yuanzheng was slightly surprised when he heard Gong Yuanzheng read Wufeng's plan to her.
She didn't expect that her younger brother, Yuanzheng, could actually understand Sanskrit?
She knew that Wufeng was not afraid of the palace gate intercepting their letters, and there was more than one letter. How could Wufeng only use carrier pigeons to send letters? The homing pigeon is just a cover!
Moreover, this letter cannot be understood by ordinary people!
However, Yuanzheng's brother happened to be one of those two people, so Gong Yaozheng raised his eyebrows slightly. This saves a lot of trouble!
"Wufeng's information network is the largest information network in the world today. If you stop a white pigeon, there will be countless "white pigeons". When you get to Jindu, you will understand how your brother has been walking on thin ice over the years. . How dangerous it is under such a famous reputation, how to sleep on the blade every night." Gong Yaozheng looked gloomy, talking to himself, and did not say anything about returning to the palace for an expedition.
Because she didn't know what to do, she had to see how many people Wu Feng would send to intercept them before making a decision.
When watching the play, everything starts from the moment the bride enters the palace gate, and everything outside of Gong Shang's role is brushed aside in one stroke. I only remember his sharp eyes like an eagle when he returned to the palace gate. That glance seemed to turn Gong Ziyu into dust.
It seems that because it is a palace gate, Gong Shangjiao's reputation in the world is justified.
But in fact, everyone has forgotten that when Gong Shangjiao took on the important responsibility of the entire Jiao Palace and ran around for the palace gate, he had not yet reached the crown! He is still a young man with braids like his younger brother Yuanzheng.
Now that he is at the palace gate, Gong Yaozheng can truly feel the difficulty of Gong Shangjiao. Every secret letter he sends is like walking on thin ice.
There was very little she could do but do what she could to make him feel a little more relaxed. After all, Gong Er really doesn’t know how to lead a team!
Maybe because he is too capable, he feels that others can't do things as quickly as he can. Whenever someone holds him back, he would rather not sleep than leave the matter to him again!
This is actually Gong Yaozheng's biggest headache. If Gong Shangjiao were in modern times, he would definitely bring down the entire company. However, the company will not promote him because the people under him will definitely die idle, and he himself will definitely die. I'll be exhausted!
Since Gong Shangjiao doesn't know how to summon people, then she, Gong Yaozheng, does it for her. Why did she get promoted so quickly in the company in her previous life? It's because she knows how to summon people! A natural manager!
She was at the palace gate, controlling Jin Fu without leaving home, conveying orders, and clearing away the corners that Gong Shangjiao had no time to take care of.
But in fact, in these years, she only used her brain to write letters, and it was Gong Shangjiao who was really working hard on the front line. Because some things are easy to plan but so difficult to actually do.
In addition to Gong Shangjiao, Yuanzheng’s brother is also a model worker. Over the years, he has been getting up early to practice martial arts, then researching poisons, making poisons, and updating prescriptions...
Yeah, she's the only one messing around!
Oh, there’s one more…
Gong Ziyu, who was being detained by Gong Hongyu at this moment, sneezed.
"Sir, it's cold at night, and if you wear such thin clothes, you'll catch wind and cold again soon. When you get sick, Master Zhibian won't punish you, but I will suffer!" Jin Fan put a large cloak on Gong Ziyu from behind. .
Gong Ziyu: "..."
The bright moon is bright and clear, the moonlight is like silk...
got windy…
The sails of the ship were raised by the sailors, and the ship's hull cut through the water and headed towards Jindu...
"As for Wu Feng, when the soldiers come, they will block it, and when the water comes, the soil will cover it up." Gong Yaozheng's voice sounded particularly clear in the quiet night.
Gong Yuanzheng was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that his sister was answering the question he just asked.
He was originally immersed in his sister's words, thinking about his brother's hardships over the years. This world is dangerous, and he knows what he is doing!
There are servants in the palace gate who are maliciously speculating about the master. How can the chaos and noise in the rivers and lakes be explained clearly in a few words.
But every time my brother comes back, he brings gifts for himself and his sister, looking at them dotingly with a warm smile on his face.
It made him subconsciously feel that his brother was actually living a good life outside the palace gate!
But what his sister said today made him experience a different world. Yes, Wufeng's information network is so powerful. Every time my brother goes out, it's like licking blood on a knife's edge and surviving in a spider web.
The breeze blew by, blowing the broken hair on Gong Yuanzheng's head, and his eyes flashed with tiny lights. The moonlight shone on his jade-like face, with soft lines and a little bit of fat.
"Sister, how long does it take to get to Jindu?"
"Fair wind, three days at most!"
The autumn wind seemed to understand someone's urgent mood, and it was very sensible and did not turn the wind direction, pushing the boat towards Jindu...
