After stabbing my ex-boyfriend, I went traveling
Chapter 45 Yunzhiyu (15)
Although Gong Huanyu is dead, the bride still needs to be selected, but this time the choice will be between Gong Ziyu and Gong Shangjiao.
Once again, the brides-to-be were ordered to take a good bath and not wear any makeup.
The doctors in the clinic once again checked the pulses of the brides-to-be, who were only wearing white inner garments. Shangguan Qian got the comment she wished for: "The breath has a spicy fragrance, the body constitution tends to be cold, and there is dampness accumulation."
Gong Shangjiao and Jin Jue went out again. It seemed that these two had become good friends who appreciated each other recently.
"You two are like the young wives who are left behind to look after the house." Gong Langjiao said with a wicked smile. He deliberately stood farther away before he spoke, so that he would not be beaten right away.
But Yang Mei sat quietly on the soft chair, with no intention of standing up. He just glanced at Gong Langjiao speechlessly: "Yuan Zheng, did you hear anyone talking just now?"
"Ah?" Gong Yuanzheng pretended to be surprised. "I only heard a toad calling 'Gu Gua Gua'. There was no one else, right?"
Gong Langjiao: “…” I heard it, they were scolding me for being a single dog!
He was just about to roll up his sleeves and join the two men in a battle, but his movements suddenly stopped. Not only him, but Yang Mei and Gong Yuanzheng also looked in one direction as if they had sensed something.
"I'll go take a look." Gong Yuanzheng was closest to the door, so he picked up a knife and wanted to go out.
Gong Langjiao stopped him and said, "Is it your turn to do the manual labor while I am here? Let me go."
……
Shangguan Qian entered the Zheng Palace with a lantern and a basket in hand, with a clear goal in mind. Just as she turned the corner from the other side of the corridor, a knife was put to her throat. She was so frightened that she dropped the lantern and basket on the ground, and a lot of jewellery rolled out of the basket.
"Who are you?" Gong Langjiao, who was holding a knife, asked her.
Shangguan Qian's face was filled with panic, and she dared not move: "Shang, Shangguan Qian."
"bride?"
"Yes, bride." Shangguan Qian's voice trembled.
Gong Langjiao had a cold face. The words "sympathize with women" did not exist in his dictionary: "You shouldn't come here."
"I know."
"You knew this but still came?! What do you want to do here?" Gong Langjiao asked impatiently.
"Doctor Zhou, who took my pulse, said that my qi is pungent, my constitution is cold, and I have dampness accumulated. I don't know if it is because of this reason that I only took the white jade token. So, I want to go to the clinic to find him, to see if there is any other prescription that can cure my cold constitution. However, I am not familiar with the location of the clinic, and now it seems that I have gone to the wrong place. Sir, I am really sorry, I didn't mean it." Shangguan Qian looked at Gong Langjiao very uneasily.
Gong Langjiao now found it somewhat interesting: "Do you really want to be chosen by Lord Blade?" He smiled in an ambiguous manner.
"I thought about it before, but not now." Shangguan Qian answered every question.
"If you don't want to, why do you go to the clinic?"
"The doctor said that dampness accumulation is not conducive to fertility." The implication is that even if she had not been chosen to bear the knife, she would have made this journey for the sake of her own health.
Gong Langjiao nodded without comment: "Then you said you wanted to do it before, but now you don't want to do it, what does that mean?"
This time Shangguan Qian did not answer his question immediately. Instead, she looked Gong Langjiao up and down for a while and said, "You should be the second son of Jiao Palace, Master Gong Langjiao, right?"
Gong Langjiao just looked at her without saying anything.
Shangguan Qian paused and began to answer his previous question: "The current Blade Master Gong Ziyu is not worthy of being a Blade Master in my eyes. The one who is most qualified to be a Blade Master is Gong Shangjiao, the Grand Duchess of Jiao Palace!"
Gong Lang curled the corners of his lips and put down the knife.
"Do you know him well?" The half-closed door behind Gong Langjiao was slowly pushed open, revealing two people inside the door.
Gong Yuanzheng saw the jade pendant hanging on Shangguan Qian's waist at a glance. Although he didn't give that jade pendant to Gong Shangjiao, he personally helped Gong Shangjiao pick it a few years ago. The jade material was soft and smooth, and the carving on it happened to be his favorite epiphyllum.
It’s a pity that it was lost somehow later on.
Gong Shangjiao said that he might have accidentally dropped it when fighting with someone. Although Gong Yuanzheng felt it was a pity, compared with Gong Shangjiao's own safety, a jade pendant was nothing, so he just let it be lost.
So what was going on now? This jade pendant was hung intact on the waist of a strange woman, and she even went to the Zheng Palace to show it off. Was she demonstrating to him? !
Gong Yuanzheng became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He exerted force with his hand and crushed the teacup in his hand. The fragments of the teacup cut his palm and blood dripped from between his fingers.
Yang Mei frowned and glanced at Shangguan Qian coldly, then stretched out her hand to forcefully pry open Gong Yuanzheng's palm and help him clean the wound: "Miss Shangguan, would you mind letting me see your jade pendant?"
Shangguan Qian had a deep impression of Yang Mei. The last time she saw her was the night before yesterday when Gong Ziyu wanted them, the bride-to-be, to escape through the secret passage.
Her jade pendant was indeed a key item. Although she didn't know why Yang Mei wanted to see it, she thought about it and politely refused.
Yang Mei nodded: "It is true that I was presumptuous. In this case," he raised his voice a little, "Gong Shangjiao, it should be no problem for me to let you handle this matter."
Jin Jue and Gong Shangjiao, who had just returned to Zheng Palace and heard a big drama: “…” We’ve been discovered!
Jin Jue made a "please" gesture forward and said, "You are the protagonist, you go first."
Gong Shangjiao did not hesitate and walked out of the blind spot of Yang Mei and the other three. He walked quickly to Gong Yuanzheng's side. When he saw the wound on his hand, Gong Shangjiao's breathing paused.
He took the medicine from Yang Mei's hand without saying a word, and then gently applied the medicine to his disobedient little lover who had hurt him.
Gong Yuanzheng felt guilty for a moment. He was a well-known weird kid in the palace because he spent all day with poisonous insects and plants. Later, his father died, and he was the only one left in charge of the palace. For the development of the palace, he began to study poisons and tested them on himself. Being poisoned to the point of near death was commonplace for him.
Later, Gong Shangjiao forcefully broke into his dull and boring life, protecting him, pursuing him, and not allowing others to hurt him, nor allowing him to hurt himself.
Today he failed to control his emotions again and ended up hurting his hand.
However, when Gong Yuanzheng saw Shangguan Qian walking towards them shyly and gracefully, the little bit of guilt he felt immediately disappeared without a trace.
Gong Yuanzheng raised his leg and kicked Gong Shangjiao lightly. Gong Shangjiao was not prepared for him and was actually shaken by the kick.
"What's wrong?" Gong Shangjiao looked confused.
"Fix your own mess first!" Gong Yuanzheng said with a look of surprise, "You've found my Zheng Gong. I'm afraid I'll see her in your bed next time."
Shangguan Qian might really not have heard what Qing Gong Yuanzheng said, or maybe she heard it but she didn't care.
When she took small steps closer and Gong Shangjiao looked at her because of Gong Yuanzheng's words, she took the opportunity to lift the jade pendant on her waist and bowed elegantly to Gong Shangjiao: "Mr. Gong Er, I have heard of your name long before I came to the palace. I admire you very much in my heart. I didn't expect to have the honor of meeting you today."
Gong Shangjiao looked at Shangguan Qian with a sullen face, and after a moment he said in an imperative tone, "Bring the jade pendant here."
Shangguan Qian has already met the person she wanted to meet, and as she expected, she has attracted Gong Shangjiao's attention with the jade pendant. The next step is to maintain Gong Shangjiao's curiosity about her and let Gong Shangjiao choose her as his bride.
Therefore, this jade pendant cannot be given to him now.
Shangguan Qian knelt down again and said, "It's getting late. If I don't go back to the ladies' courtyard, the head nanny will be worried. Gentlemen, I'll take my leave now." After saying that, she wanted to pick up the lantern on the ground and leave.
Gong Shangjiao's face turned dark and he winked at his brother Gong Langjiao.
Gong Langjiao received the signal from his brother, and with a flip of his wrist, the sharp blade slashed towards Shangguan Qian's waist.
Shangguan Qian really didn't expect that she would be treated like this. When she was distracted, the rope tied to the jade pendant was cut.
Gong Langjiao quickly caught the jade pendant with the blade of his knife and handed it to Gong Shangjiao: "Brother, this is for you."
Gong Shangjiao picked up the jade pendant by the tassel at the bottom. "You stole someone else's things and wanted to leave with dignity. How can this be justified in this world?"
