The morning light is slightly bright...
Gong Yuanzheng arrived at the Corner Palace early, but when he entered the room in the main hall, his expression changed: "Why are you here?"
Murong Ling shrugged noncommittally and glanced at Gong Shangjiao. The meaning was obvious. Your brother naturally agrees with me being here.
"Yuanzheng, sit down." Gong Shangjiao smiled lightly and motioned for Gong Yuanzheng to sit down.
Gong Yuanzheng sat down angrily and deliberately made a noise on the table.
Gong Shangjiao raised the corners of his lips helplessly, poured a glass for Gong Yuanzheng beside him, and then said to Murong Ling opposite: "Just tell me if you have anything to say!"
When Gong Yuanzheng heard this, he couldn't help but look up at Murong Ling, wondering what she could say.
Murong Ling had a slight smile on her lips: "Mr. Zheng, I admit that I am envious of you. To be precise, I am jealous! I have offended you so much in these days, but I still ask Mr. Zheng to have a lot of things, don't you?" Take it more seriously.”
Gong Yuanzheng snorted coldly, dismissing Murong Ling's sudden show of affection. He, Gong Yuanzheng, never had much.
He has not yet reached the crown, he is not an adult!
"I once had a sister. She was very kind to me, just like the second young lady waiting for a young master. Later, she died, and I killed her with my own hands! She was the one who poisoned my mother. She was innocent. Wu Feng's assassin, she told me before she died that if she didn't poison Madam, Wu Feng would kill me." Murong Ling spoke as if she was peeling something off.
"How ridiculous, in order to protect me, I have to hurt the person I love most. The most terrifying thing is that I can't hate her because the knife inserted into her chest was inserted by her with my hand. On the day I lost my mother, I also lost my sister, and the entire Murong Mansion became as cold as an ice cellar."
"I came to the palace gate for the sake of boundless fire, but I never thought of hurting anyone in the palace gate! Including you! It's wrong of me to plot against you, but it was also a helpless move..." Murong Ling's voice became increasingly louder. Low, looking back some time ago, she and Gong Yuanzheng were like two children fighting for candy, tearing each other up when they met, extremely childish.
"What on earth do you want to say?" Gong Yuanzheng looked a little uncomfortable. If something went wrong, there must be a monster. He didn't think Murong Ling would say this for no reason.
"I am now in the Corner Palace, and my status is embarrassing. The Murong family was once famous for poison. I also have some knowledge of pharmacology. I heard that Zheng Palace has not found a suitable candidate to take over the position of Manager Jia since the death of Manager Jia. The affairs of the manager Now Mr. Zheng is doing it himself. Mr. Zheng is the master of the first palace and has a lot of affairs. It is inevitable that there will be things that he cannot take care of. I think..."
"Do you want to come to Zheng Palace to be a steward?" Gong Yuanzheng interrupted her and looked her up and down.
"Master Zheng is really smart!" Murong Ling praised.
Gong Yuanzheng did not buy it: "The steward of the pharmacy is in charge of the production and distribution of Baicao extract in the entire palace, as well as the processing and classification of all medicinal materials in the palace. It is very important. Why do you think I will believe you?"
Murong Ling was speechless. Sure enough, she would have to pay back her money if she came out to fool around.
"How can Mr. Zheng trust me?" Murong Ling looked sincere.
Gong Yuanzheng didn't look at her, but turned to look at Gong Shangjiao, his brows slightly furrowed and his eyes a little wandering, which was the sign when he couldn't make up his mind.
Gong Shangjiao: "Brother Yuanzhang, why don't you make an assessment first before making a decision?"
"Listen to brother."
Gong Yuanzheng would not go against Gong Shangjiao's words when matters that did not involve his sister.
Murong Ling went to pack her things...
The more Gong Yuanzheng thought about it, the more something seemed wrong: "Brother, why did you arrange for Murong Ling to go to Zheng Palace?"
"It's inconvenient to put her in the Corner Palace. Please help me keep an eye on her if she's placed in the Zheng Palace."
"Why is it inconvenient?" Gong Yuanzheng didn't know why.
"Young Master Yan got up to practice sword practice this morning. Murong Ling went over and started a fight with him. It must be said that Young Master Yan looks like A Yao, so he wants to recognize Young Master Yan as his sister." Gong Shanggiao sighed slightly.
"Young Master Yan told me today that in the Jiao Palace, there is him but not Murong Ling, and there is Murong Ling but not him. I can't let Young Master Yan go to conquer the palace, so I can only let her go." Gong Shangjiao rubbed his hands. I rubbed my brows, I really had a headache from the noise this morning.
Gong Yuanzheng raised his eyebrows slightly and muttered: "Murong Ling may not be as safe as my cousin!"
"It's just because it's not safe that I leave it to you." Gong Shangjiao said seriously.
Gong Yuanzheng immediately became energetic. This was a task given to him by his brother, and he had to complete it.
"Don't worry! No matter how powerful she is, she can't escape from Zheng Palace!" Gong Yuanzheng looked confident.
Gong Shangjiao took a sip of tea and said no more.
Last night, the Blade-bearing Palace...
"Then how are you going to arrange the girl from the Murong family?"
"The Murong family is my mother's family. My uncle once wrote a letter, hoping that Murong Ling could find a job at the palace gate and find a good family." Gong Shangjiao answered truthfully.
The three elders were not fools. Gong Shangjiao had already said so. They naturally understood why Zhan Ren wanted to keep Murong Ling in the first place.
"There are no female relatives in the Corner Palace now. Since Jiubian has decided not to choose Miss Murong as his bride, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for Miss Murong to stay in the Corner Palace." Elder Yue said thoughtfully.
"Zhenggong Pharmacy still lacks a manager, why not..." Gong Shangjiao looked at the three elders, and the meaning was very clear.
"Ayao is here in the expedition palace. When Miss Murong goes to the expedition palace, we have to take care of each other. On the other side of the expedition, it's better to hold the sword and decide for yourself." Elder Hua said, you are the one holding the sword. Who can control what you want to do? You?
Gong Yaozheng woke up naturally from his sleep this morning, washed up and had breakfast. As soon as he left the dining room, he suddenly felt that his eyes were dazzled.
That's right Yuan Zheng's younger brother. The one behind him, Murong Ling?
The sun comes out in the west?
When Murong Ling saw Gong Yaozheng, she smiled and saluted, "Second Miss."
Gong Yaozheng smiled and returned the greeting: "Miss Murong, what is this?"
"Come to Zheng Palace to find a job. There are very few female relatives in this palace. There is a second lady taking care of Zheng Palace, so there is less gossip." Murong Ling took two steps forward and held Gong Yaozheng's hand affectionately. hand.
Gong Yaozheng was slightly surprised: "Ms. Murong is the second brother's cousin. Even if you stay in the Corner Palace, there will be no gossip. What's more..." You are still the first bride.
Before Gong Yaozheng could say the last part of his sentence, he was interrupted by Murong Ling: "Under the melon fields and plum blossoms, people's words are scary. I don't want to be a stumbling block between the second lady and the blade, so as not to offend others.
"
Murong Ling pursed her lips as she spoke, and Gong Yaozheng laughed. Her second brother must have said something to her. Look at this girl, she could even have an oil pot hanging from her mouth.
"What is this now?" Gong Yuanzheng asked Gong Yuanzheng on the side.
"My brother means to let her come to Zheng Palace to be the steward of the pharmacy, but how can it be so easy to be the steward of Zheng Palace? I still have to pass the test, please!" Gong Yuanzheng crossed his arms with an impatient look on his face.
"Being a pharmacy manager is a hard job. Miss Murong is a southern girl, so it's better not to take over this job. Since it's not good to live in Jiao Palace, then come and live in Zheng Palace. I'll have someone clean up the house for you. You can accompany me in your free time. Playing cards, I just happened to be bored recently." Gong Yaozheng turned around and told Yin Ling to ask his servants to clean up the house for Miss Murong.
Murong Ling raised her brows slightly and was slightly startled for a moment, but still responded with a smile.
Gong Yuanzheng was not surprised at all by his sister's arrangement. The pharmacy almost controlled the lifeblood of the palace. What happened to Guanshi Jia last time was a lesson learned.
After a while, Yin Ling came back and took Murong Ling to her room, while Gong Yuanzheng motioned to Gong Yuanzheng to follow her to the pharmacy.
Gong Yuanzheng looked at his sister's back and quickly followed.
In the pharmacy, a group of jackdaws were watering the flowers. He was becoming more and more proficient in his business, and he regarded the medicinal herbs grown by Gong Yuanzheng as his own.
Jackdaw Wu saw Gong Yaozheng greeting him skillfully, and then continued to water the flowers.
Gong Yaozheng was also used to it. Seeing the green flowers and plants under his care, he couldn't help but think of a saying, loving someone is like raising flowers.
I don’t know when Jackdaw Shi will be able to enjoy this blessing~
Gong Yaozheng couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, which was a bit difficult to suppress. He sat at the tea table. The teapot on the tea table was filled with newly added tea. It looked like it belonged to Jackdaw Wutian.
Gong Yuanzheng poured two glasses and handed one to Gong Yuanzheng: "Brother Yuanzheng went to Jiao Palace early in the morning. Did the second brother say anything else?"
"My brother said that Murong Ling is very dangerous and asked me to keep a close eye on her." Gong Yuanzheng told the truth.
At first glance, it was just an excuse to coax his younger brother to play, but it obviously couldn't stand up to Gong Yaozheng. After all, Murong Ling was still a child in her ninth year. It was really dangerous, so Gong Er would not let her go to Zheng Palace.
"anything else?"
"Murong Ling suddenly showed weakness to me today, which is a bit unusual." Gong Yuanzheng frowned slightly and took a sip of tea.
Gong Yaozheng became interested: "Do you think Murong Ling is beautiful?"
"Not as good as sister." Gong Yuanzheng thought for a while, his eyes bright.
"You talkative!" Gong Yaozheng laughed. Who doesn't like to be praised: "Girls from Jiangnan are as gentle as water and beautiful. They are always their best weapon. Showing weakness is also the best way to confuse the enemy."
"What does sister mean? Murong Ling has other ideas?" Gong Yuanzheng couldn't help but look at her seriously.
"That's not true. Her goal has been achieved. If she doesn't show weakness, will you easily bring her to conquer the palace?" Gong Yuanzheng looked at Gong Yuanzheng with a playful expression.
Gong Yuanzheng reacted and realized that he had been tricked by Murong Ling again. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will never let her go!"
Gong Yuanzheng pulled Gong Yuanzheng to stand up: "Why are you arguing with her? I just want to tell you that some things can be smooth sailing, but you must see it clearly and not be kept in the dark."
"Murong Ling came to conquer the palace at the request of my second brother. Just leave it to me. Don't make trouble for her. Otherwise, you'll be bullied. Don't cry to me." Gong Yaozheng joked.
"Sister, when will I cry..." Gong Yuanzheng paused, looking at Gong Yuanzheng's expression, he turned his head in embarrassment.
Okay, he did cry in front of his sister many times...
"Xiao Wuzi, what's going on over there at Wufeng?" Gong Yao used his strength to pull Gong Yuanzheng to sit down and asked Jackdaw Wu casually.
Jackdaw Wu was helpless to this title from the beginning, but now he is used to it: "Back to Miss Second, Yun Weishan has returned to Wufeng, and the book of Qi Men Zhen has been handed over to Jackdaw Qi."
"However, that loser Jackdaw Shi doubts whether Jackdaw Qi can understand the Qimen Formation."
"Ask him to cooperate with Shangguan Qian. If the leader has any new orders, notify me immediately. Also, take good care of Sui Jin!" Gong Yaozheng paused and tightened his hands. The one-month period is almost here, so he needs to speed up. .
Jackdaw Wu's eyes fell on Gong Yaozheng's hand. Without saying a word, he picked up the message for Jackdaw, emphatically reminding him of the importance of Sui Jin.
In the medicine room, Sui Jin looked at his jackdaw picking up with a complicated look on his face, a little curious.
They seemed to have some magical contact information before: "Did the second lady mention me?"
Jackdaw looked up and down at this little chatterbox: "Did you save the second young lady's family in your last life? Why don't you come here to see me if you can't protect me?"
Gong Yaozheng: ...Is that what I said?
Jackdaw Wu: It's so exaggerated...
Sui Jin became more and more certain that the second young lady was her best friend: "Maybe!"
Jackdaw didn't argue with her and made her a sheepskin blood bag that looked just like a real one: "Put this on."
"Where to wear it?"
"On your wrist!"
"oh…"
