Jindu under the night has a different tranquility than during the day. The stars are dotted in the night sky, and the moonlight shines on the blue bricks and green tiles...
in the room
The fragrance of tea lingers...
Gong Shangjiao sat at the side of the tea table, his lips restored to their usual rosiness. Jin Fu stood aside, still holding the box of snow lotus in his hand.
Gong Yuanzheng watched Gong Yuanzheng make tea. I have to say that Gong Yuanzheng’s method of making tea is very beautiful. His slender fingers moved smoothly among the tea sets. As the clear tea soup was poured out, the fragrance of tea overflowed in an instant, which was indescribable. of elegance.
Gong Yuanzheng took the tea handed over by Gong Yuanzheng, took a sip of it obediently, and praised: "Good tea!"
Being praised by his sister, Gong Yuanzheng smiled unconsciously and handed Gong Shangjiao another glass.
Gong Shangjiao took it, put the tea cup on the table, and tapped his fingers on the table. Although there was a smile on his face, the smile did not reach his eyes, and he said, "You are so brave!"
This sentence shocked both Gong Yuanzheng and Gong Yuanzheng, good guys, let’s settle the score!
"Brother, I don't blame sister, I had to come here!" Gong Yuanzheng was the first to bear the brunt of protecting his sister.
Gong Yaozheng gave him a thumbs up from behind, "Good boy, my sister's love for you is not in vain."
"Did I say I blamed Ayao?" Gong Shangjiao said jokingly.
Gong Yuanzheng's eyes turned red instantly, feeling a little aggrieved. That was his fault!
Gong Shangjiao smiled half-heartedly: "Okay, I'm just teasing you, but don't be so reckless next time, deceive and forge secret messages. If we are held accountable, you won't be able to escape thirty-five feet and six months of shut-up."
Gong Shangjiao paused and picked up the tea cup: "Also, thanks to you this time!"
Gong Yuanzheng's eyes brightened when he heard this: "I knew brother wouldn't blame me. This time we came to Jindu and encountered several waves of assassins..."
Gong Shangjiao drank tea and looked at Gong Yuanzheng with a smile as he talked about his experiences on the way to Jindu. When he mentioned that the assassin almost boarded the ship, Gong Shangjiao frowned slightly and then relaxed...
His eyes unconsciously glanced at the sleepy Gong Yaozheng beside him...
"Brother?" After Gong Yuanzheng finished speaking, he noticed that his brother was looking next to him with unclear questions.
Gong Shangjiao made a gesture of silence: "Your sister is sleepy. I asked Jin Fu to prepare a room for you. You are tired from traveling and traveling, so you should rest early!"
Just as he was talking, Gong Yuanzheng's head had fallen down, and Gong Yuanzheng quickly held it up with his hands.
The fingers were long and slender, holding Gong Yaozheng's round head steadily.
Gong Yaozheng's skin is very white, shining brightly under the light on the tea table. His eyelashes are very long, casting a shadow on his eyelids.
Gong Yuanzheng had no choice but to put Gong Yuanzheng's head on his shoulder, turned around and picked her up, signaling Jin Fu to lead the way.
Gong Shangjiao subconsciously extended his hand for a moment, watched the two people leave, put his hand down and coughed lightly.
When did that little girl, who was defiant to the sky, the ground, and the air, actually grow into a graceful and graceful girl?
His eyes darkened slightly, maybe it was time for him to get married.
In the corridor under the moon…
Jin Fu led the way, and Gong Yuanzheng followed behind, carrying Gong Yuanzheng on his back.
Jin Fu stopped at the door of a room and opened the door: "This is the second lady's room. Master Zheng's room is next to it."
Hearing this, Gong Yuanzheng stepped over Jin Fu and carefully placed Gong Yuanzheng on the bed. He looked at the quilt on the inside of the bed and stretched out his arms to take it.
Just as she was about to cover Gong Yaozheng, Gong Yaozheng woke up. She was confused: "Brother Yuanzheng? Where is this? Weren't we just having tea with Gong Er?"
She just dozed off, why did she change places?
"This is the room prepared by my brother. I was careless. My sister has no martial arts skills and has been working hard during this period. She must be sleepy. Go to bed early! I'm next door. Call me if you need anything." Gong Yuanzheng saw Gong Yao. Zheng woke up, moved his hands for a moment, and then naturally covered Gong Yaozheng with a quilt.
After saying that, he turned around and left.
"etc!"
Gong Yaozheng stopped him, sat up, patted the bedside, and motioned for him to sit down.
Gong Yuanzheng didn't know why and sat down hesitantly: "Sister, what's wrong?"
"I just saw how enthusiastic you were talking, so I didn't interrupt you. I dozed off. Don't you want to know who poisoned Gong Er?" Gong Yaozheng's eyes flashed.
Gong Yuanzheng waved, and Gong Yuanzheng leaned over and whispered.
The corners of Gong Yuanzheng's lips raised unconsciously, and the siblings looked at each other with identical smiles.
The moonlight poured down, the door of the room was opened and closed, Gong Yuanzheng walked out of the room, and extinguished the candlelight in the room.
He looked at his room next to him, paused, turned around and left in the direction he came from...
Brother, he shouldn't be asleep now!
…
The autumn air is crisp and the wild geese are flying south...
A row of wild geese flew by in a herringbone pattern. The sky was cloudless and unusually blue...
The morning smoke is already rising in the bustling Jindu, and the vendors who got up early to set up stalls are beginning to greet business.
The people who caused trouble in Buzhuang also started working early, blocking the door of Buzhuang at the palace gate, so that the stewards inside did not dare to open the door. However, compared with the previous few days, Buzhuang seemed to have less of a backbone today, and no guards came. Drive away the troublemaking people.
This unusual feature quickly attracted the attention of some people...
"Have you heard? Mr. Gong Er from the palace gate was poisoned!"
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful of others..." The man made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"My relative is a handyman there. He said Mr. Jiao was poisoned the day before yesterday and the poison came out yesterday. Did you see the ship yesterday?"
"That ship is so luxurious, how could you not see it? Say it quickly, don't be too secretive."
"The people in that ship are Mr. Zheng and the second lady from the palace. I heard that they studied all night but couldn't find an antidote to the poison."
"Really? What kind of poison is so powerful?"
"I didn't know that!"
In the alley of a restaurant, two people were spreading gossip in a low voice and openly.
For a time, it caused waves in Jindu.
"Have you heard? Mr. Gong Er from Gongjia Clothing Village was poisoned?"
"Have you heard? Gong Er is poisoned and is about to die now?"
"Have you heard? Gong Er of Gongmen may be dying now. There is no cure for the poison."
"Did you hear that? Mr. Gong Er...hey!"
"This Wu Feng is too abominable..."
"Stop talking, I don't know how I will die soon!"
Gong Yuanzheng, the second lady from Gongmen who was rumored to stay up all night to study the antidote, faintly woke up when the rumor spread that Mr. Gonger was almost out of breath.
What a sound sleep!
Gong Yaozheng opened the door, stretched out, and looked at the blue sky. It was such a good day today, the autumn air was crisp~
Mr. Gong Er, who was rumored to be out of breath and bedridden, was currently in his room handling affairs at other strongholds.
According to rumors, Gong Yuanzheng, who is currently testing poison on his body, vomiting blood, and not knowing whether he is alive or dead, is finishing his martial arts practice and is about to wake up his sister.
Halfway through, he saw Gong Yuanzheng like a headless fly. When Gong Yuanzheng saw him, his eyes lit up: "Brother Yuanzheng."
"Sister, what are you doing?" Gong Yuanzheng held the knife in his hand and said jokingly, with a smile on his face.
"Still laughing. The room you took me back to last night, I lost my way when I came out early this morning. Are there no servants in this stronghold?" Gong Yaozheng was a little helpless. Who knows that as soon as he went out, there was a road in front of him. What does it feel like to walk along corridors.
"Originally, there were, but today, everything is busy..." Gong Yuanzheng raised his eyebrows slightly and reminded.
Gong Yaozheng suddenly realized, this kid moves very fast!
"Let's go, let's go find Gong Er!" Gong Yuanzheng said and left, but Gong Yuanzheng grabbed him by the collar.
Just when he was about to get angry, he heard Gong Yuanzheng point helplessly in the opposite direction: "Over there!"
After saying that, he turned Gong Yaozheng in another direction and gave him a gentle push.
Gong Yuanzheng coughed lightly and followed Gong Yuanzheng's direction as if nothing happened and walked forward.
Gong Yuanzheng looked at Gong Yuanzheng's back from behind and couldn't help laughing. After his sister left the palace door, she looked a little confused and cute!
When Gong Yuanzheng heard Gong Yuanzheng's laughter, he walked faster!
"Sister, walk slower and be careful of the steps!"
Gong Yaozheng looked at the steps under his feet, lifted up his skirt, and walked up step by step!
…
The prosperity of Jindu has never been able to be expressed in one or two words.
Clouds and trees surround the embankment, smoke and willows paint the bridge...
The rich and powerful gentry spend a lot of money...
Where the trickling water flows, there are women's families washing yarn, and there are countless embroidery workshops, silk workshops, and cloth shops...
Jindu is famous for its silks and satins and outstanding embroidery. Which brocade produced in Jindu is not worth thousands of gold?
The cloth shop in Jindu was one of the important sources of Gongmen's wealth. Wu Feng was sure that Gong Shangjiao would not abandon Jindu, so he attacked Gongmen's cloth shop in Jindu.
I want to take the opportunity to kill Gong Shangjiao in Jindu and severely damage the palace gate!
If Gong Shangjiao really abandons Jindu, it will be a piece of meat for Gongmen!
No matter what, it's a win-win situation.
However, the arrival of Gong Yuanzheng and Gong Yuanzheng was completely unexpected. As a result, Gong Er would be even more difficult to kill.
Just when Jackdaw Wu was at a loss what to do, he saw someone downstairs passing a letter.
The next moment, the door was opened: "Sir, there is news."
Jackdaw Wu took the note, with only one word written on it: "Poison!"
Jackdaw Wu narrowed his eyes, looked at it for a long time, and handed the note to the man: "Read it!"
The man took it: "Bi Luo's poison is effective, Gong Shangjiao was poisoned and passed out!..."
Jackdaw Wu frowned: "Where did this come from?"
"Go back to Master, Buzhuang!"
"Okay, you go down."
"yes!"
When the man retreated, Jackdaw Wu's dark eyes were filled with contempt: "Huh, there is some use in picking up that trash Jackdaw. This second palace almost deceived me!"
Jackdaw Wu thought that he was going to make a meritorious service, while Jackdaw Shi heard that Gong San and the second lady of the Gong family had gone to Jindu, and they had a vague premonition.
"Come here, go and call Han Yi Ke!"
"Sir, you have forgotten, Master Xiao went on a mission yesterday and is no longer in Wufeng!"
Jackdaw Shi: "..."
