Water Reflects Peach Blossoms

"Who told Zi Yu this news?" Gong Yunzheng asked curiously.

Gong Yuanzheng told everything he knew.

"How are the injuries of the secret agent who was sent back?" If he was still alive, she wanted to go and see him.

"Dead." Gong Yuanzheng paused. "He was seriously injured when he was brought back. The wound on his chest had hit his heart. He had already died when he arrived at the clinic."

Gong Yunzheng lowered his head in thought.

died?

Wu Feng has always been ruthless and meticulous in his work. It is more appropriate to cut the neck than to stab the chest with a knife. This kind of mistake should not happen.

The drugstore owner died after delivering the message, which seemed to her more like a murder after the message was delivered.

In this way, there will definitely be more than one assassin!

Seeing that his sister was silent, Gong Yuanzheng assured her, "Don't worry, sister. I will definitely find the assassin without a front in hiding among the brides."

"Send someone to draw the wounds of the assassins on paper tonight and bring it to me to see." Gong Yunzheng said, then asked again, "Do you have a plan?"

Hearing his sister's question, Gong Yuanzheng raised a sly and sly smile: "Gong Ziyu...that useless guy is the softest of the bunch. Who else could be better at a time like this?"

It turned out that it was a setup to let Zi Yu's brother release the brides, and then Yuan Zheng would take action. Gong Yun Zheng nodded, but felt that his brother's anger towards Gong Zi Yu was a bit too strong: "Zi Yu is your brother, don't say that again in the future."

"That bastard?" Gong Yuanzheng said disdainfully, "Is he worthy?"

In this palace, he is the only one who is not worthy of being his relative!

"You are the Palace Master of Zheng Palace. Don't talk about such groundless things." Gong Yunzheng frowned and his voice became serious.

There are few descendants in the palace, and she doesn't want to see her own family fighting among themselves.

Seeing that his sister was really angry, Gong Yuanzheng restrained himself immediately: "I won't say anything more, sister, don't be angry."

Later, he said to himself.

As he had a party to set up in the evening, Gong Yuanzheng did not stay long. He just told Gong Yunzheng the news and left in a hurry.

After the boy left, the book in his hand fell on his clothes. Gong Yunzheng couldn't help but smile. She guessed right! All her efforts for this day were not in vain. But then the smile on her lips turned bitter.

It's true that she wanted revenge, but she also didn't want the palace to be in danger.

But her fate was not in her control, and she had no choice at all.

"A mountain storm is coming." Looking at the ginkgo leaves falling like snow outside the window, a complex and desolate feeling surged into Gong Yunzheng's heart.

She was reluctant, but had to.

At night, Gong Ziyu, who had been waiting in Gong Huanyu's room for a long time, finally waited for his brother to come.

Gong Ziyu immediately stood up to greet him, calling him brother, but then thinking of his father, he immediately bowed and changed his address to "Young Master."

Looking at his brother's expression, Gong Huanyu found it a little funny: "Father is not here, it's just the two of us, so don't make things difficult for yourself."

Gong Ziyu then looked anxious, and without waiting for his brother to sit on the couch, he couldn't wait to ask about the situation.

"I won't die." Gong Huanyu sighed, "But it won't be easy to live either."

The second after he breathed a sigh of relief, Gong Ziyu frowned deeply. With his intelligence, he immediately figured out what his father was going to do: "Using poison again?"

Seeing Gong Huanyu nod, Gong Ziyu became excited: "How is this different from torture? Can't we just detain the person first and then find another way to find the assassin?"

"Where should we detain them? Sister Yunzheng is currently staying in the women's guesthouse. Father won't agree to your proposal, and Brother Yuanzheng will definitely not agree."

"That's not what I meant, what I meant was..."

"No matter what you mean, no."

Gong Huanyu denied what he hadn't finished saying. They chatted for a few more words, and Gong Huanyu drove him out on the pretext that it was late at night and she needed to rest.

Outside the door, Gong Ziyu told Jin Fan about the situation.

"What should we do now?" Jin Fan felt overwhelmed. "If it were you, I'd let Gong Yuanzheng interrogate him. With his poison, he'll definitely be able to..."

"Then you'd better not say anything." Gong Ziyu felt that it was the same as if he hadn't said anything.

Wearing the thick black sable collared cape that her brother had just given her, Gong Ziyu looked extremely noble. She suddenly thought of something and strode forward: "Let's go find Sister Ayun!"

"Second miss?"

"Yes, if there is anyone in the palace who can make Gong Yuanzheng obey, it is only her."

"I know," Jin Fan followed Gong Ziyu in a few steps, feeling that his idea was unreliable, "but will the Second Miss help you?"

"It's us," Gong Ziyu reminded him, "We are in the same group."

"Then you should send me to herd sheep."

"..."

"I'm sorry, Master Yu, the second young lady is not feeling well tonight. She took medicine and went to bed early."

Looking at Nanny Fu, the female guesthouse manager, who was blocking his way, Gong Ziyu was extremely anxious: "Can you please go and inform them again? This is a matter of life and death!"

Nanny Fu shook her head, indicating that she could do nothing to help. "With Qinglan guarding me, I can't even get close to the door of the Second Young Lady's room. My young master, please be kind and don't make things difficult for me."

Looking at the tightly closed door of the room, Gong Ziyu frowned and finally decided to take the risk.

Although Jin Fan disagreed, he could not persuade him and helped him release the brides imprisoned in the dungeon. He took them to the abandoned secret passage and wanted to release them all.

Unexpectedly, the tunnel door that Gong Ziyu had just opened was closed again by the hidden weapon thrown by the young man standing on the roof with a sarcastic look.

Amid the brides' screams, the cold young man in the black robe threw a poison among them. As the yellow poisonous smoke spread, all the brides were poisoned.

Being the most soft-hearted and kindhearted, Gong Ziyu and his personal bodyguard Jin Fan fought with Gong Yuanzheng. However, because he had not practiced martial arts well since childhood, Gong Ziyu, who had already reached adulthood, could not even beat his younger brother who had not yet reached adulthood.

When the two men pulled each other by the collars and moved closer, Gong Ziyu whispered to Gong Yuanzheng that this was just a trick and he didn't really want to let the man go. Gong Yuanzheng saw through his lie at a glance and took advantage of the situation by attacking even more fiercely and showing no mercy in his moves.

He has been annoyed with this useless and unambitious brother since he was a child, and he will not let go of the opportunity to teach him a lesson openly.

A dazzling and fierce fight ended when Gong Yuanzheng swung a knife at Gong Ziyu, but was resolved by Jin Fan.

After being knocked back several steps by Jin Fan's sword, Gong Yuanzheng steadied his body and wondered if Jin Fan, who was just a Green Jade Guard, was too skilled.

Looking at the brother who had tried to kill her, Gong Ziyu gritted her teeth and warned him that these were potential brides, not prisoners for him to torture.

"So what if they are potential brides? There are assassins among them, so they should all be executed. Now you have been poisoned by me, and there is no antidote, so just wait for death." The words spoken by the young man with a delicate face were chilling. He looked at Gong Ziyu with disdain, not taking him seriously at all.

"I heard you went to see your sister?"

Gong Ziyu's expression changed: "You're spying on me?!"
