Good guy!

What a good guy!

Gong Shangjiao was amused.

Zhang Xueming was so angry that he laughed.

Gong Yuanzheng, who had just woken up, obviously had trouble with his eyes and brain.

His memory was still stuck at the time when Zhang Xueming said he would report him to his brother, but for him that happened just the previous second.

The next second he opened his eyes and saw his brother, who had clearly left the palace to go out on business, standing in front of him. Then he found himself lying on the bed inexplicably in an unfamiliar room.

Before he could even feel happy or confused, he was horrified to find a familiar-looking woman lying next to him. It was none other than "Zheng Nanyiyi" who had just said to him with a cold face, "I will get to the bottom of what happened today"!

He wanted to get out of bed and get away from her, but the shameless woman held his hand tightly and wouldn't let him go. She seemed very close to Gong Ziyu before, but now she was so mean to him, to him... and her brother saw it!

She must have done it on purpose!

She must have done this in front of his brother to take revenge on him for snatching the red cloth on her head and preventing her from getting close to Gong Ziyu!

Grievance, fear, shame... countless disgusting emotions flooded into his heart all at once.

Gong Yuanzheng made a prompt decision and decided to strike first, accusing loudly: "Zheng, Zheng Nanyi? Why is she here? And she's holding my hand tightly?!"

What did he see?

Gong Shangjiao did not scold the woman at the first moment, nor did he rush over to rescue him. Instead, he just lowered his eyes and looked at him with deep eyes, expressionless face, and said nothing.

Gong Yuanzheng's eyes suddenly turned red, tears flashed in his eyes, he felt wronged and was about to cry: "Brother~"

He was afraid that Gong Shangjiao would not see the evidence that Zhang Xueming was deliberately retaliating against him, so he raised his hand, which was interlocked with Zhang Xueming's, and wanted to hand it to Gong Shangjiao right under his nose: "Brother, look at her!"

Gong Shangjiao tried so hard to suppress the upward curling of the corners of his mouth that the veins on his forehead bulged.

He looked away, not wanting to meet the gaze of his silly brother who would quickly lose his eyes and brain when he saw his brother. After counting to three in his mind, he spoke in a calm voice: "Brother Yuanzheng, you can let go of Miss Zheng Er's hand." Otherwise, she would really jump up and hit you.

"Brother, don't you believe me?" Gong Yuanzheng couldn't understand the unexpressible painstaking efforts of Yuan Shangjiao. He blinked his eyes and crystal clear tears fell like pearls from a broken string.

"Brother?" He looked at Gong Shangjiao, the pain of not being believed made his eyes redder, his ink-black eyes were like washed glass, unusually bright.

Gong Yuanzheng subconsciously shook his "caught" right hand, shifted his gaze over, and fixed it——

His eyes suddenly widened and his face seemed to be on fire.

The five fingers of my right hand were a little out of control. After all, I had been maintaining the same posture for nearly twenty hours, so it was understandable that my qi and blood were not flowing smoothly.

What Gong Yuanzheng couldn't understand was that the five fingers of Zhang Xueming's left hand were so loose, as if they were just clasped in a posture, but he wasn't actually using any strength at all.

The person who really held on to other people's hands tightly was Gong Yuanzheng!

The boomerang that was thrown before flew back and hit him in the face, which was very painful.

Gong Yuanzheng lowered his head, and tried hard to pry open the somewhat stiff fingers of his left hand. He pursed his lips tightly, and his face and ears were hot.

He had not yet developed the nerve to sympathize with women, and he shook off Zhang Xueming's hand as if it were a hot potato, jumped off the bed, and did not dare to even look at the girl who was still lying there motionless.

The soft and smooth touch of the girl's hand was still clearly lingering in his hand. Gong Yuanzheng was so flustered that he ignored all abnormalities. He quickly hid his right hand behind his back and looked at Gong Shangjiao carefully and flatteringly: "Brother, when did you come back?"

"Yesterday." Gong Shangjiao made a gesture, indicating him to go out and talk.

Gong Yuanzheng nodded with bright eyes, forgetting the unhappiness just now, and followed Gong Shangjiao out happily. Some of the bells on his braids were not rubbed off, and they rang with his steps.

He took a few steps and crumbs began to fall from his robe. He stopped and looked at the ground in confusion. He saw tiny black particles that looked like sand falling all over the place. He quickly patted his clothes and asked, "What is this?"

Gong Shangjiao turned his head away and didn't look at him. He moved his lips, but in the end he didn't answer his question. He just pointed to the location of the temporary tea room and asked him to sit down first.

Now that it is confirmed that Zhang Xueming is awake, some things should be made clear here. Otherwise, if the head of the Zheng family is allowed to let his imagination run wild, who knows how much trouble will arise in the future.

The premise that he is not afraid of trouble is who brings the trouble.

Troubles like this one were extremely frightening at the beginning, making many people nervous and unable to sleep for several days, but the result was better than expected.

Once is enough.

There aren't so many beautiful things in the world.

The head of the Zheng family was not able to control his temper every time, and he did not have the confidence to allow her to suffer injustice because of him without taking revenge.

Especially through this opportunity, he saw clearly many people, many things, and... his heart.

What is really important to him?

The moment he stepped into the ward and saw the young man he had raised lying on the hospital bed with a blue face as if he was dying, he suddenly understood.

Gong Shangjiao ordered the maid on duty outside the door to get hot water for Gong Yuanzheng to wash his face. Thinking that he must be starving after being unconscious for two days, he asked the guard on duty to go to the kitchen to get some porridge and side dishes for him to fill his stomach.

When he turned around, Gong Yuanzheng had already sat down in the temporary tea room he had designated not far from the cubicle, and smiled at him foolishly with his white teeth bared.

Seeing Gong Yuanzheng moving his shoulders and touching his back after he sat down, he was amused and frowned: "Sit still, we'll let you go back to take a shower and change clothes in a while."

Gong Shangjiao had no intention of making tea. There was half a pot of mountain spring water in the pot, so he just put the pot on the clay stove and that was it.

While waiting, he looked at Gong Yuanzheng, who was getting a little restless, and said after a while: "Tell me about the day when the bride-to-be entered the palace."

Gong Yuanzheng heard the news of amnesty.

He suppressed his slight doubts about the "that day" mentioned by Gong Shangjiao, thought about it briefly, and then told Gong Shangjiao everything he had experienced that day, not leaving out any details.

Just like every time Gong Shangjiao came back from outside, he was always afraid that Gong Shangjiao would miss some news that he should know but didn't know, and be suppressed and bullied by those people in the palace who were sucking blood from them two brothers.

As soon as Gong Shangjiao came back, he would run to the Jiao Palace and tell Gong Shangjiao everything he heard happened in the palace when Gong Shangjiao was away, what he heard when he visited other palaces in the middle of the night... every detail.

Of course, in the past he would also do the same as today, commenting while speaking, and it was normal for him to include personal opinions.

For example, when he talked about Jin Fan, Gong Ziyu's personal bodyguard, he frowned and was very angry: "When I spar with Jin Fu, if I try my best, I can win three or four times out of ten. But Jin Fan pretended to be a good fighter at first, and he teamed up with Gong Ziyu, but I still beat him. Later, when he saw that I was really going to hit Gong Ziyu hard, he didn't even draw his sword, and forced me back with just one move. His internal strength is very deep, and that blow almost shocked me to vomit blood. There is no way he is just a Green Jade Guard."

For example, when it comes to Gong Ziyu, he raises his eyebrows and curls his lips, his eyes full of sneer, and he does not hide his contempt: "He led that group of strange women to the secret passage in the southwest corner, and opened the entrance directly in front of them. He also argued with me that he was setting a trap to lure the enemy. It's ridiculous! He has been to Wanhua Tower too many times. When he sees a woman, he uses the tricks he learned from that dirty place. He is very good at coaxing people. He completely forgot that it was his brother who chose the bride, not him!"

……

Gong Yuanzheng said so much, but he omitted all the details when he mentioned Zhang Xueming, and he also complained in a not-so-subtle way: "I saw that the other brides to be selected didn't have red cloths on their heads, but she was the only one who was different. She couldn't even walk well, and she had to have Gong Ziyu leading her in front of her before she dared to walk. So I helped her take off the red cloth, but she was still unhappy and said she would complain to you later. You really don't know how to appreciate a good person!"

Gong Shangjiao glanced at the bright red veil still on Gong Yuanzheng's waist, and was speechless for a moment. He gritted his teeth and suppressed his smile. The water in the kettle boiled, and he picked up the kettle to pour him a cup. After a moment's pause, he asked him, "You still haven't figured out where this place is?"

"The hospital." Gong Yuanzheng blinked. "The hospital's casualty ward."

There were all kinds of medicinal smells wafting around here every day. There were no trees or flowers outside the window, but he was so familiar with this place.

"Did you know that you were also poisoned that day?" Gong Shangjiao casually poured himself a glass of water, "You, Gong Ziyu, Jin Fan, the four Yu Palace guards, the eight brides to be chosen, the three Wufeng assassins, and maybe... you were all poisoned.

There were a total of six Yugong guards who went to the accident site in the southwest corner that day. According to the reports of the two guards who were safe and sound, none of them had approached the secret passage.

In other words, all of you who have fainted due to Chinese medicine have been around the secret passage.

You were the first one to wake up, but you were also in a coma for two days and two nights.

Brother Yuanzheng, with your attainments in medicine and poison, did you really not realize that you were taking Chinese medicine at all at that time?"

Chinese medicine, coma, two days and two nights...

really.

Gong Yuanzheng thought about it carefully, and finally shook his head: "The poison I used that day was something I made up at random, just to fool people.

After inhalation, you will feel stinging in the throat and lungs, dark bruises on the skin, abdominal pain, dizziness, and stagnation of internal strength.

Even if they are martial artists, they will be unconscious in half an hour at most, and those who don’t know martial arts will be unconscious in less than half an hour.”

Even though he later coaxed Gong Ziyu and "Zheng Nanyiyi", snatched the red cloth from "Zheng Nanyiyi", and spoke sarcastically to her, it was because his brother asked him to take care of "Zheng Nanyiyi". He couldn't stand her being close to Gong Ziyu, so he went to make trouble because he wanted to. There was nothing wrong with his behavior or words.
