The moon is late and the stars are falling...

In the room of the Corner Palace, the lights are like stars...

Gong Shangjiao and Gong Yuanzheng sat opposite each other at the tea table, drinking tea...

"Brother, are you sure nothing will happen if you ask your sister to pick up Murong Ling from the female guests' courtyard? It's already dark!" Gong Yuanzheng looked at the moonlight outside the window and frowned.

"Yesterday I asked you to pick her up, but she refused and volunteered. What can I do?" Gong Shangjiao looked at the flickering light, his eyes darkening slightly.

Yesterday afternoon, the identities of the two brides were verified and they were indeed identical.

But it was getting late yesterday, so today we are preparing to bring the bride to the Corner Palace.

Gong Shangjiao was originally going to ask Gong Yuanzheng to pick him up, but Gong Yuanzheng said that Yuanzheng's younger brother is a man and must abide by male ethics. He must not pick up a bride who is not his. Therefore, if the second brother is not available, she can do it for him.

The result of her efforts was that it was already dark and no one was seen.

We set out after lunch, but now it’s past dinner time and we haven’t come back yet!

When Gong Shangjiao finished his work and returned to Jiao Palace, he originally thought that everyone had been picked up, but the servant said no, so he called Yuanzheng, but Yuanzheng also looked confused.

Back to this afternoon…

On the way to the female guests' courtyard, Gong Yaozheng met Gong Ziyu, Gong Zishang and Jin Fan, and the four of them met each other.

Then, we went to the female guest courtyard together...

Everything is still normal up to this point. The turning point of all this is the leaf card that Yun Weishan brought back from Zheng Palace!

As we all know, the card played by three people is called running fast, and the card played by six people is called fighting the landlord.

Because there was no such title as landlord at this time, Gong Yaozheng changed its name here to Dou Wufeng!

Six people play, four against two, two Wufeng cards. The two people who drew the Wufeng cards are Wufeng, and the other four are Jianghu people. Four Jianghu people fight two Wufeng.

After getting familiar with this novel gameplay, the six of them started fighting in Yun Weishan's room.

The fight lasted until sunset, and Niu Niu's head was covered with notes... Gong Yaozheng's head was also covered with many notes...

After he and Niu Niu drew the No-Feng card for the third time and lost, Gong Yaozheng threw away the leaf card: "No more playing, everyone goes back to their homes, each looking for his own..."

Gong Yaozheng paused and looked around, "Okay, everyone sitting here can't make up one mother!"

After looking at the sky, he stood up and said, "Miss Murong, come with me!"

"Where are you going?" Murong Ling looked confused. Didn't the second lady come to her to play cards?

Gong Yaozheng: Finished, I forgot to mention...

Gong Ziyu apparently also forgot: "Well, since Miss Yun's identity has been found out, please come back to Yu Palace with me today."

Yun Weishan and Murong Ling looked at each other, then went back to their rooms to pack their things.

Gong Yaozheng was drinking tea outside, while Gong Ziyu was distracted looking at Yun Weishan's back.

"Stop watching, I'll take it back to Yu Gong in a while. Then I'll watch it every day!" Gong Yaozheng took a bite of pastry and teased Niu Niu out of boredom.

Sure enough, Gong Ziyu's ears turned red for a moment: "Second sister, don't talk nonsense, I just want to see if Miss Yun wants to help."

Gong Yaozheng curled his lips and said, "Woman, how can you help me pack my clothes? Help my sister to collect the leaf cards!"

Gong Yaozheng looked at the scattered leaf cards on the table, and Gong Ziyu looked at them: "Jin Fan!"

Jin Fan:......

Gong Zishang stopped Jin Fan: "Ayao asked you to clean up, why did you call Jin Fan? Jin Fan called Gong Ziyu!"

Gong Ziyu:......

In the end, it was Gong Ziyu who put away the leaf cards on the table...

When Gong Ziyu lowered his head, Gong Yaozheng reached out and took off the white note that had not been removed from Gong Ziyu's head, and then threw it on the table.

Gong Ziyu was startled and raised his eyes: "Second sister, you... don't blame me anymore?"

Gong Yaozheng didn't reply: "It's my birthday tomorrow, remember to come!"

Gong Ziyu's eyes brightened slightly: "Okay!"

Gong Zishang also smiled and unconsciously leaned against Jin Fan. Jin Fan looked helpless, but still didn't move away.

Gong Yaozheng went to Murong Ling's room, and while helping her pack away her jewelry, he felt her pulse.

Murong Ling trembled and retracted her hand: "Second Miss."

Gong Yaozheng smiled faintly: "It's cold now, but I see sweat on your forehead. I have some medical skills and want to show you."

"It's okay. I've been suffering from body heat since I was a child, and sweating is common in winter. Thank you, Miss Second, for your concern." Murong Ling bowed like a weak willow supporting the wind, her gestures were graceful and tight.

Gong Yaozheng helped her up: "I can't bear Miss Murong's gift. After all, you are the future wife holding the blade. I will have to call you sister-in-law in the future!"

Murong Ling paused, her expression a little unnatural: "Second Miss is joking, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"

Gong Yaozheng was slightly startled: "What? You don't like Mr. Gong Er?"

Murong Ling shook her head: "As the bride-to-be of the palace, I can't help myself, so how can I like it or not? If possible, I would rather find an ordinary person in the Old Chen Valley to marry, so that my father can be satisfied. A wish."

Gong Yaozheng naturally knew who Murong Ling's father was, but if Murong Ling was a murderer, what role did her father play in it?

There seemed to be a fog in front of Gong Yaozheng's eyes. Now that everything was out of the plot, she couldn't see the direction.

Whether the Murong Ling in front of her is as indifferent and casual as she appears, or whether she is hiding herself, is unfathomable!

Gong Yaozheng would not believe a word of her words, whether they were true or false. Wufeng Assassin was always making up lies. This could be seen from Yun Weishan and Shangguan Qian.

"Now that you've come, let's live in peace. As long as you stay safe and keep your children, the palace will not treat you badly." Gong Yaozheng said, "If you make up lies, don't blame me for telling you lies."

Sure enough, Murong Ling fell silent...

Pushing open the door, he saw a young man standing at the door, with his back to the door. He turned his head when he heard the sound, his handsome brows were slightly furrowed, and his face was displeased.

"Brother Yuanzheng? Why are you here?" Gong Yaozheng was slightly surprised.

"If I don't come, will my sister have to spend the night in this female guest's courtyard?" Gong Yuanzheng glanced at Murong Ling behind Gong Yuanzheng, his unhappiness was written on his face.

Gong Yaozheng said amusedly: "Aren't you ready to set off?"

Gong Yaozheng gestured to Murong Ling's baggage. The bride's luggage when entering the palace was strictly inspected. Not much could be brought in, only some clothing and jewelry.

Gong Yuanzheng sighed: "Let's go, it's getting dark, I brought a palace lantern."

Gong Yuanzheng smiled and took the palace lantern: "Brother Yuanzheng should be careful."

Gong Yuanzheng's lips curled up slightly and he turned around: "It's good to know!"

When passing by the pond in the female guest's courtyard, I saw Gong Zishang and Jin Fan looking at the fish in the pond and talking about the joy of fish and water...

When Gong Yuanzheng heard this, he frowned slightly and whispered with disgust on his face: "Dirty!"

The voice was very small, but Gong Yaozheng heard it: "Why is it so dirty?"

"Say these filthy words in broad daylight!" Gong Yuanzheng looked over there. Although her sister said that Gong Zishang was not what he seemed, it was not easy for her to carry Shang Gong alone.

However, he just couldn't bear to see her chasing a guard all day long, losing her status as a member of the palace family in vain.

Gong Yaozheng looked at the bright moon in the sky and said calmly: "It's dark!"

Gong Yuanzheng:...

Murong Ling behind her couldn't help but chuckle, the second young lady is really a wonderful person.

"Sister~"

"Let's go, the second brother will be asleep soon, don't disturb him again!" Gong Yuanzheng pulled Murong Ling back, pushed Gong Yuanzheng with his right hand, and asked him to lead the way.

It was dark, and to be honest she couldn't tell the difference between east, west, and north!

Gong Yuanzheng: You also know that my brother has gone to bed for a while, but you still delayed it until so late!

Just after taking two steps, Gong Yuanzheng suddenly realized something: "Jin Fan is here, Gong Ziyu has come to pick up the cloud as a shirt?"

"yes!"

"Why did you come to pick her up so late? As expected, like a master, like a servant!" Gong Yuanzheng glanced at Yun Weishan's room where the lights were still on.

Gong Yaozheng: Well, they came in the afternoon...

"Who cares what they do? Let's leave quickly!" Gong Yaozheng was a little flustered. If his brother knew that he and Gong Ziyu had been playing cards all afternoon, he would be aggrieved and say: You actually played cards with him, he is Is it your brother or am I your brother?

Gong Yuanzheng had just left the female guest courtyard...

Gong Ziyu opened the door to the room, looked at the three figures from behind, and was a little confused: "That's it? Gong Yuanzheng? Is it true that I can't leave my second sister for a moment, and even chased her to the female guest courtyard?"

Gong Ziyu muttered, and took Yun Weishang's luggage.

Yun Weishan refused: "No, Mr. Yu came to the ladies' courtyard to pick me up. I'm already very happy!"

Yun Weishan never thought that Gong Ziyu came to the ladies' courtyard to pick her up. She thought that she and Murong Ling would stay in the ladies' courtyard for a few more days.

did not expect…

"Don't call me Young Master Yu, call me Young Master Yu..." Gong Ziyu made a joke when he saw Yun Weishan looking a little nervous.

Although the joke was a bit cold and Yun Weishan was slightly startled, he still covered his mouth and chuckled in cooperation.

"Master Yu, stop joking, let's go!"

"Okay, it's my second sister's birthday tomorrow, do you want to come with me?"

"Can I go too?" Yun Weishan's heart moved. The young man in front of him was so sincere in front of him that he seemed to be showing his sincerity.

"Okay, you are my unmarried wife. How about I take you to my second sister's birthday party? And I think you have a good relationship with my second sister. That day at the Blade Holding Palace..." Gong Ziyu paused. After thinking about what happened that day, I might as well not talk about it...

Naturally, Yun Weishan didn't know that she was almost chosen by Gong Yaozheng for Gong Shangjiao.

But Gong Ziyu didn't say anything, so she didn't ask again.

Yun Weishan walked down the steps, and Gong Ziyu stretched out his arm to support her, asking her to pay attention to her steps.

Not far away, Gong Zishang tutted: "It's really too late to stay!"

Jin Fan: "Is this sentence appropriate for you?"

"Why is it inappropriate? A sister is like a mother, don't you know? It's terrible to be uneducated!" Gong Zishang poked Jin Fan's chest and said with disdain.

Jin Fan:......

The moonlight shines on the steps of the Corner Palace, casting shadows...

Tonight, Kakunomiya lit up lights for the first time, and the lights beside the steps were bright, which made Gong Yuanzheng a little surprised.

Gong Yaozheng looked at Murong Ling who was standing aside. It seemed that Gong Er's fellow had used his heart and lighted a lamp for him because he knew that girls were afraid of the dark.

Gong Er: I ordered it for you!

"It's so late, has the second brother prepared a room for Miss Murong? I'll send her there!" Gong Yaozheng looked at the door of the closed main hall, thinking that Gong Er's fellow had already fallen asleep.

Gong Yuanzheng took a look and found a guest room with lights on: "It should be that one. I'll take Miss Murong there. Sister, wait for me here."

The road over there is a little dark, so he should go there!

Gong Yaozheng looked at the dim path: "Then go back quickly! Take the palace lantern!"

Gong Yuanzheng handed the palace lantern to Gong Yuanzheng...

Gong Yuanzheng took it, glanced at Murong Ling, motioned for her to follow, and walked to the guest room.

Gong Yaozheng watched the two people walking away, and the door behind him suddenly opened from the inside...

Gong Yaozheng turned around and met Gong Shangjiao's somewhat impenetrable eyes.

Different from the brightness outside, there was only one candle burning in the main hall. Gong Shangjiao's eyebrows looked a little soft against the light outside the door.

"Second brother, are you still not asleep?"

"Come in, I have something to tell you!" Gong Shangjiao opened the door completely, turned around and walked in.

Gong Yaozheng looked at the dim room, hesitated for a moment...but then followed in.
