Falling snow…
The sun shines on the clear snowflakes, falling one by one on the eaves of the palace gate.
In Zhenggong's room, silver charcoal was burning, and incense was burning...
Gong Yaozheng sat closest to the stove and warmed his hands. Gong Shangjiao held the letter in his hand and looked at it.
"Is he coming to the palace gate?" Gong Shangjiao said calmly.
"The letter said that we will set off in two days. We should be able to arrive before the Lantern Festival." Gong Yaozheng replied, his face blushing slightly due to the fire.
"That's fine. I may be very busy during the Lantern Festival this year and won't have time to accompany you. I'll be relieved to have one more person to protect you." Gong Shangjiao folded the letter and handed it to Gong Yaozheng.
Gong Yaozheng reached out to take it, but Gong Shangjiao let go of his hand in advance, and the letter slipped into the stove and burned.
"Be careful!" Gong Shangjiao grabbed Gong Yaozheng's hand and pulled it up, fearing that the fire would burn Gong Yaozheng's hand.
Gong Yaozheng was slightly startled. She didn't expect Gong Shangjiao to let go in advance, but she didn't think much about it. She just felt that she was slow to pick up.
Feeling his hand being grasped by slightly warm hands, Gong Yaozheng raised his eyes to meet Gong Shangjiao's eyes, and their eyes met, just when Gong Shangjiao thought Gong Yaozheng was going to say something.
But I saw Gong Yao frowning slightly: "Why is it so hot? The lunar eclipse date has been advanced?"
As soon as these words came out, Gong Yuanzheng was shocked and quickly went up to check his pulse.
"Brother, have you eaten the Heart-Eclipsing Moon again?"
The internal energy that Gong Shangjiao practices is the extremely cold internal energy, the Bitter Cold Sanchuan Meridian, and his body temperature is a few points colder than that of ordinary people.
The temperature rise can only be caused by a lunar eclipse...
Gong Shangjiao nodded: "No problem, the palace gate was in chaos some time ago, so I went to the Moon Palace to take the Heart-Eclipsing Moon again and changed the date of the lunar eclipse."
"So now?"
"Spring Festival!"
"Brother, I won't go out during the Lantern Festival. I'll guard you!" Gong Yuanzheng looked serious.
"Since Brother Yuanzheng won't go out, I don't want to be alone. Why don't we have hot pot together on the Lantern Festival!" Gong Yaozheng's eyes brightened.
"Hot pot?" Gong Yuanzheng was a little confused.
"Isn't there a cook from Yizhou in the palace gate? He can cook it!"
Don’t be too happy eating hotpot by the fire in winter!
"Brother?" Gong Yuanzheng couldn't help but turn his head and look at Gong Shangjiao.
"Okay." There is a lunar eclipse in the middle of the night. Although the internal strength will fade, it is still okay to have hot pot with my brothers and sisters.
Gong Yuanzheng couldn't help but smile, but then he became worried: "Sister, isn't Yanjiao coming? What if he..."
"He will not!"
"Do you believe him that much?" Gong Shangjiao couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know why, I just think he won't do it. If you are worried, I will write a letter to ask him not to come. The safety of my second brother is more important." Gong Yaozheng thought for a moment, and then got up to write a letter. .
Gong Shangjiao held her back: "No problem, I'm just asking casually. The palace gate is heavily guarded, and I'm not just a piece of paper. How can I be afraid that he won't do anything to me?"
Gong Yaozheng looked at Gong Shangjiao carefully, and saw no embarrassment on his face, so he followed his strength and sat back down: "
Second brother, there is something I want to make clear to you. "
Gong Shangjiao was slightly frightened. He took Gong Yaozheng's hand and put it down. His expression didn't change: "You tell me."
"Actually, my trust in Yanjiao is not without reason. Do you still remember that year when you were surrounded and killed, you fled back to the palace gate, and I was waiting for you at the door to bandage you?"
"Remember."
"At that time, the news came from Yanjiao, although I didn't know he was Yanjiao at that time."
"I see..." Gong Shangjiao said calmly, but his heart was filled with turmoil. It turned out that they had known each other since then?
"So, you and Yanjiao..."
"It's been seven years, so we can be considered old friends! So, please rest assured, second brother." Gong Yaozheng explained with a smile.
Gong Shangjiao tightened his molars slightly and barely curled his lips: "Naturally."
Gong Shangjiao was naturally at ease with Yanjiao. Ever since Lao Zhiren told him about Yanjiao's life experience, he had put Yanjiao on their side, but...
As for Ayao, he is not at ease with Yanjiao...
Yan Jiao looked at A Yao with too much enthusiasm, even for a cousin, he shouldn't be like this.
When he sees his own heart clearly, he is not ready to give up Ayao to others, but now is not the time. Amidst internal and external troubles, he must not expose his weakness to the enemy.
If Ayao doesn't want to get married, then he will stay with her. The days ahead are long, so take it easy!
Gong Yuanzheng looked at his brother's anomaly and fell into deep thought. Yanjiao and his sister had known this for a long time. Didn't he tell his brother about it?
His brother forgot?
"By the way, I heard from Yuanzheng that you changed the medicine given to Miss Shangguan?" Gong Shangjiao changed the topic.
"Yes, I can't wait any longer!" When he mentioned this, Gong Yaozheng thought of Sui Jin who was still in Wufeng. Wufeng was such a gloomy place, and he didn't know how many times A Jin, a coward, should be frightened and cry.
"Is it because of Miss Shangguan?" Gong Shangjiao was talking about the real Shangguan Qian.
"Yes, her current situation in Wufeng is worrying. She once saved you. That girl is my favorite. I want to bring her to the palace afterwards. You will definitely like her too." Gong Yaozheng said with a smile. , half true and half false, the time travel was too shocking, and she didn’t know how to explain it.
"That's fine. The person A Yao likes will naturally have good character. You can take him if you want." Gong Shangjiao will naturally not refute Gong Yaozheng's suggestion, but if he wants to investigate in secret, it is his business. .
Gong Yuanzheng, who was silent on the side, suddenly frowned: "Brother, I have something to tell you alone."
With that said, he left the room.
Gong Yaozheng looked confused, what happened to this child?
Gong Shangjiao glanced at Gong Yaozheng: "Ayao, I'll go take a look."
Gong Yaozheng waved his hand, saying that you can go and don't worry about me...
The world isolates me...
Gong Shangjiao vaguely seemed to know something in his heart, but still walked out.
Gong Yaozheng looked at the room where she was alone, then at the cold tea, and his eyes fell on the cloak hanging beside...
Gong Shangjiao left the room, and Gong Yuanzheng was waiting for him in a pavilion not far away.
He frowned slightly and walked over: "Yuanzheng, what's wrong?"
Gong Yuanzheng stood in the pavilion. The eaves outside the pavilion were covered with snow. When Gong Shangjiao approached Gong Yuanzheng, he heard Gong Yuanzheng say in a low voice: "Brother, do you like my sister?"
Although I already had a guess in my mind, I was still surprised when I heard this sentence, but it didn't show on my face: "Why do you ask that?"
When Gong Yuanzheng heard his brother's rhetorical question, he understood. His brother did not deny it, so: "If the brother likes the sister, why would he choose a bride?"
"Yuanzheng, you don't understand." Gong Shangjiao was a little at a loss when he saw Gong Yuanzheng's eyes were red.
"Brother, you don't understand. If you like your sister, give her the best. If you don't like her, don't test her too much. It's her freedom who she likes. Even if you are my brother, you can't! "This is the first time Gong Yuanzheng has refuted his brother's words, every sentence is accurate.
Gong Yuanzheng is Gong Yuanzheng's weakness, but isn't Gong Yuanzheng's weakness?
Gong Shangjiao was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that Yuan Zheng cared about this. He thought that Yuan Zheng would feel ashamed of this kind of thinking just like him.
"I don't know how to tell you now, but Murong Ling cannot be the mistress of Jiao Palace." Gong Shangjiao explained.
Hearing this, he looked at Gong Shangjiao seriously. Gong Shangjiao had a firm look on his face, which made him sigh in relief.
"Will my brother marry my sister?" Gong Yuanzheng asked with burning eyes. He couldn't help but look at a piece of clothes at the corner and frowned slightly.
"Yuanzheng, I don't want to hide it from you. I like Ayao, not as a brother does to a sister, but as a man does to a woman." Gong Shangjiao said word by word.
She looked closely at Gong Yuanzheng, trying to see his reaction, but saw his pupils shrink slightly.
Gong Shangjiao thought that Gong Yuanzheng couldn't accept this change. His brother fell in love with his sister, and no one could accept it!
But in fact, Gong Yuanzheng doesn't care about this. Jiao Gong and Zheng Gong are not related by blood. Gong Yuanzheng can see this more clearly than anyone else.
If his sister marries his brother, he will be the first to agree!
His pupils shrank because the owner of that piece of clothing turned out to be: "Sister!"
At first, he thought it was Murong Ling who had left and returned, but he didn't expect that it was Gong Yaozheng!
Gong Shangjiao was startled, and quickly turned his head to look at Gong Yaozheng in a daze.
Gong Yaozheng was stunned. Who would tell her what the situation was now?
Gong Yaozheng's mind was a little confused. She must have heard wrong just now. Gong Shangjiao likes her, that's no problem!
But if a man likes a woman, that’s a big problem!
That guy from Gong Er must be joking with his brother Yuanzheng, he must be!
"Ayao, listen to me!" Gong Shangjiao took a step forward, and Gong Yaozheng took a step back.
"Stop, don't go any further, let me figure it out!" Gong Yaozheng tried to calm down. She knew that she had inappropriate thoughts about Gong Er, but when did Gong Er have inappropriate thoughts about her? Think about it?
Could it be that you teased him last time and made him feel responsible for himself? This kind of thinking is not popular.
Gong Yuanzheng felt a little guilty when he saw his sister like this. He shouldn't have asked. His sister couldn't wrap her head around it so suddenly!
"This idea of yours is wrong!" Gong Yaozheng wanted to dispel his idea.
Gong Shangjiao was startled when he heard this, and felt a little pain in his heart. Sure enough, could this be the case? Ayao couldn't accept this kind of feeling at all.
"I understand! I will change it!" Gong Shangjiao felt a little sad and forced a smile: "I just made fun of you with Yuan Zheng, and I will definitely not do it again in the future."
"Brother!" Gong Yuanzheng was confused as to why his brother would say this, and he was worried for him.
Gong Shangjiao glanced at Gong Yuanzheng, with a suppressed look in his eyes, preventing him from saying anything more.
Gong Yuanzheng felt a little aggrieved, so he crossed Gong Shang's corner and walked to Gong Yuanzheng: "Sister, why did you come out?"
Gong Yuanzheng looked up at Gong Yuanzheng and blinked: "...passing by!"
Gong Yuanzheng: ...Guess whether I believe it or not.
Gong Yaozheng: Yes, I just came out to eavesdrop. If I had known this earlier, I would rather I didn't come out.
Curiosity killed the cat!
"What happened to brother Yuanzheng just now? Why did you suddenly ask your brother such a question?" Gong Yuanzheng calmed his tone and asked Gong Yuanzheng.
Gong Yuanzheng glanced at Gong Shangjiao, and for the first time he didn't want to listen to his brother's words: "I was not joking just now. My brother likes you. For so long, my sister didn't notice it, but I found it."
Gong Yaozheng was slightly startled, and then laughed: "Brother Yuanzheng, you are still young and don't understand. Your brother must be teasing you. If you don't believe me, ask your brother."
Gong Shangjiao suddenly understood something, his expression darkened: "No."
It’s nothing! Hey!
"My brother said he wasn't teasing me. Sister, do you like my brother?" Gong Yuanzheng decided to give him a push for the sake of a happy life in the future.
Gong Yaozheng's face turned red, and all he could think about was sexual tension, strong fertility, and two bars...
"I don't know, I'm tired, let's go to bed first!" Gong Yaozheng was talking nonsense and was about to leave.
Gong Yuanzheng looked at the sky outside. The bright sun couldn't even be covered by the snow.
Gong Yuanzheng wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Gong Shangjiao: "Brother?"
Don't you want to know?
Gong Shangjiao shook his head at him: "Don't force her, let her be quiet."
Gong Yuanzheng was stunned. He didn't understand, but now he might know why his brother didn't want to say anything.
"Brother, did I do something wrong?" Gong Yuanzheng looked at his sister's fleeing back and said in hindsight.
Gong Shangjiao did not answer, but frowned slightly as he watched Gong Yuanzheng disappear around the corner...
Ayao's behavior was mostly shy, and he didn't notice her resistance.
Ayao, she...
You may also have thoughts about yourself!
…
Gong Yaozheng returned to his room and buried his head in the quilt. Gong Er liked her! So does she like Gong Er?
If I had asked her before, she would have answered without hesitation, I love it!
But now, it’s different!
What kind of love does a man have for a woman?
There is a blind spot in knowledge...
How about asking Sister Zishang?
Gong Yaozheng got up from the quilt, fixed his hair, and decided to go to Shang Palace.
After leaving the room, Gong Shangjiao and Gong Yuanzheng were nowhere to be seen, so she walked out of the door openly. This was her home, who dared to stop her?
As soon as I left the expedition palace, I saw a figure: "Xiao Hei?"
When the playboy heard this, he was startled and dragged her to the corner: "Auntie, keep your voice down, I'll be finished if someone finds out!"
"You are in this direction, have you just come back from the Shang Palace?" Gong Yaozheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he looked at the young man dressed in a servant's clothes.
"Well, I heard that Zhibian came to Zheng Palace. Why did you come out?" God knows how scary it was for him to be called out suddenly when he passed by Zheng Palace cautiously.
"I have something to do with Sister Zishang, can you..." Gong Yaozheng made a walking motion with his fingers.
Hua Gongzi suddenly said: "You want me to...take you to the Shang Palace?"
"clever!"
"No! If I don't go back, my old man will find out that I have sneaked out again. My life is also my life. You can find someone else!" The playboy said that he was helpless.
Gong Yaozheng:......
"If you don't take me there, I will call you Zhibian now, Gong Shang... ugh!"
Hua Gongzi covered Gong Yaozheng's mouth: "Shh, I'll take you there! Don't shout!"
In Zhenggong’s room…
Gong Shangjiao heard the report from the guards and said that the second lady went to the Shang Palace with the playboy.
The teacup on the table fell apart in an instant...
Gong Yuanzheng asked the guards to go down and poured another cup of tea for Gong Shangjiao: "Brother, if you don't take action, my sister will be snatched away by others."
Gong Shangjiao:......
