Comprehensive film and television: The Queen of Rolls Opens the Roll Again

Zhang Xueming gritted his teeth and faked a smile when he saw the new chairs in the tea room. The tacit understanding they had in their previous cooperation had long been thrown out of the window: "I have reason to suspect that Mr. Gong Er is targeting me."

The low couch is wide, making it convenient to kneel and sit, and the skirt can be fully spread out.

The floor-standing seats limit the space, so you can only cross your legs and lie flat in front of the chair, and spread out the front of the skirt to cover your legs. The back of the skirt will get wrinkled if you sit for a long time, which will look ugly and impolite when you stand up.

Gong Shangjiao's mouth curled up slightly, and he said righteously: "Miss Zhao, you think too much. The money and property that Jiao Gong sent to Zheng Gong yesterday is enough for Miss Zhao to spend for two years. The storehouse is too empty and it doesn't look good, so I had to have someone move the wide couch in to take up some space."

Zhang Xueming was flexible and immediately shut up, smiling quietly, being well-behaved and lovely. Want her to spit out what she ate? Impossible, impossible in this life. At most, she could help him collect some more useful information, or do one or two more things as a favor.

Gong Yuanzheng automatically replaced "Mr. Gong Er" with "Uncle Gong Er" and "Miss Zhao" with "Eldest Niece". He was a little surprised at his own reaction, he didn't feel jealous, and he could even taste some fun from the confrontation between the "uncle and nephew".

He suppressed his laughter and sat down on the side near the fence, leaving the side with convenient entry and exit to Zhang Xueming.

Zhang Xueming sat down gracefully, adjusting her skirt as she spoke nonchalantly, "Okay, let's get back to the point. Mr. Gong Er, A Yuan, please tell me, in your impression, what kind of person was Madam Lan, the former Blade Wielder?"

In the past two days, she had not been idle when she returned to the small palace at night. She invited two maids to take turns to accompany her and talk until she went to bed. She spent more than ten pills of the small fragrant medicine she named "Pear Blossom Spring Rain" to relax her mind. She had some understanding of the temperament, behavior style and past of the masters and main managers of the palace, including those rumors that she found funny.

Gong Shangjiao put the teapot filled with water on the stove and signaled with his eyes that Gong Yuanzheng should speak first.

Gong Yuanzheng tried hard to recall, but could only find a vague figure in his memory: "When Madam Lan was alive, I was still young and my father was still alive. Maybe because the rumors about Gong Ziyu's life were so widespread, my father didn't allow me to contact people in the Yu Palace, especially Madam Lan. I seem to have seen Madam Lan come to the clinic for treatment, but I only vaguely remember that she was always unhappy and didn't talk much to people... At that time, I always heard the servants of the Zheng Palace say that there was something fishy about Madam Lan giving birth before she was pregnant for less than ten months. It was rumored that Madam Lan had a lover who was inseparable before she married into the palace. So, it's hard to say whether Gong Ziyu was really born prematurely or full-term."

Gong Yuanzheng couldn't help but curl his lips when he talked about this.

Gong Ziyu hates him, so why doesn't he hate Gong Ziyu too?

Especially after the great catastrophe of ten years, he and his brother lost all their relatives except each other, and even Gong Zishang's father was paralyzed in bed and couldn't get up. But Gong Ziyu's family was unscathed, and he even had a brother who had to please Gong Ziyu. Why?

The rulers of the Jiao and Zheng palaces were killed in battle, and all the elite troops were gone. The two palaces were almost empty, and everything was white that winter. The sword was only seen once during the funeral procession.

Later, Gong Yuanzheng heard that Madam Lan was seriously ill during that period, and Gong Ziyu cried all day long. The sword-wielding Gong Hongyu was busy looking after Madam Lan and coaxing her son, and had no time to take care of the "housework" of the three palaces...

It's no wonder his father didn't allow him to contact such a disgusting family.

Gong Yuanzheng started to pick up the herbs, flower buds and grass leaves from the row of small celadon bowls on the tea table, preparing to make a beauty-enhancing herbal tea for Zhang Xueming to taste. He had just come up with a new recipe last night.

Gong Shangjiao didn't know that he would also have to do beauty treatments soon, so he said calmly, "I only met that Madam Lan once. I remember clearly that my mother said at the time that there was a fellow Jiangnan native with the same surname as her, Yang, in the palace, and asked me to greet her. Madam Lan was delicate and beautiful, but she looked like a puppet. I saluted her, but she just nodded, didn't say anything, and had a blank look in her eyes."

He thought for a moment, and then explained to Gong Yuanzheng, who was glancing at him with surprise, "Brother Yuanzheng, I also had doubts about Gong Ziyu's background because of that rumor. But this time, I was not only responsible for investigating the background and current situation of the brides before the selection, but also adjusted the procedures for the inspection of the brides in the Women's Guest House and Zheng Palace before the selection ceremony. I can tell you responsibly that the rumors about Gong Ziyu's background are pure nonsense. There is no doubt that he is a descendant of the Gong family.

When the marriage was chosen, Old Zhiren had just taken over, and he did not have such great power to cover the sky with one hand. The elders were not as obviously biased towards Yu Gong as they were after the great catastrophe ten years ago. They would not allow Old Zhiren to do whatever he wanted and confuse the bloodline of the Gong family. Not to mention cheating, if Madam Lan really...she would not be able to pass the test of the doctor in the clinic taking her pulse. "

Gong Yuanzheng didn't expect that Gong Shangjiao would clarify Gong Ziyu's background, but think about Gong Shangjiao's character, he is fair and will use evidence to speak for himself.

He lowered his head and remained silent for a while, then nodded reluctantly: "Okay, I understand, I will rectify the Zheng Palace when I go back, and I will not allow the servants to bring up Gong Ziyu's life experience again."

He turned around and saw Zhang Xueming looking at him with a gentle smile. He couldn't help but blush: "Why is Zhao Zhao looking at me like that?"

"Oh, maybe I suddenly realized that this brilliant young man beside me is the one with the real kindness. Not only did he know his mistakes and correct them, he was also willing to stop the spread of rumors for the sake of a brother who didn't get along with him. I thought about how much energy and love his brother had put in to raise the young man so well and make him so lovable, and I couldn't help but take a few more glances at him. Please forgive me."

"You, you...brother~" Gong Yuanzheng's face turned red due to the praise, and out of the corner of his eye he saw Gong Shangjiao nodding slightly in agreement. He felt happy and shy and just wanted to find a place to hide.

Gong Shangjiao felt sorry for his brother, so he asked Zhang Xueming at the right time: "Why are you asking about Madam Lan?"

"Of course it's because I asked the maids yesterday, and I came here today wearing this dress on purpose. I also chatted with Madam Wu Ji in the Jiangnan dialect, and got some interesting news." Zhang Xueming laughed, "After all this fuss, it turns out that Madam Lan entered the palace as a result of a joint plan by Wu Feng and the palace. How about it, isn't it interesting? It turns out that this is not the first time that Wu Feng has cooperated with you palace gates!"

"What? Really?"

"Is there any evidence?"

Gong Yuanzheng and Gong Shangjiao asked questions at the same time, but the two brothers focused on completely different things.

"There is no evidence unless the person involved admits it himself. I just said it so that you can have a rough idea in your mind." Zhang Xueming answered truthfully, "I won't talk about the process of speculation. Let me just tell you the conclusion. For the sake of easy identification, I will call Lao Zhiren by his name."

Seeing Gong Shangjiao making a gesture to invite her, she began to speak: "When Gong Hongyu was still the young master, he went to Jiangnan and met Madam Lan. After returning, he could not forget Madam Lan. Knowing that Madam Lan had a lover, he hung her portrait in the room. At that time, the last sword holder from Jiao Palace often went to Yu Palace to talk to Gong Hongyu because his heir behaved abnormally after returning from his travels.

Soon after, the palace marriage invitation was delivered to Madam Lan's family, and Madam Lan was chosen by Gong Hongyu, who had just succeeded to the throne. Since Madam Lan was depressed all day long, Gong Hongyu sent someone to Jiangnan to bring Wu Ji, the personal maid from Wufeng who grew up with Madam Lan, into the palace without any investigation. Have I made myself clear enough?"

Gong Yuanzheng understood all the twists and turns, so how could Gong Shangjiao have any doubts?

"Ridiculous!" Gong Yuanzheng and Gong Shangjiao used Elder Hua's catchphrase at the same time.
