Quick Wear Dream Qiqi

Chapter 160: Demons and Monsters 4

"Brother, I only feel pity for Miss Meng, and there is no love between men and women." Gong Yuanzheng argued.

"Compassion?" Gong Shangjiao smiled and said, "If it were an ordinary woman, would you take such good care of her?"

Gong Yuanzheng was speechless for a moment. He himself could not explain why he paid special attention to Miss Meng.

Gong Shangjiao patted his shoulder and said, "Yuanzheng, there's no need to deny the matter of feelings. I've been away from home for many years, so I'm pretty experienced in matters of the heart."

"If you are interested in Miss Meng, you might as well find an opportunity to express it."

"No, brother, this matter needs further consideration. Miss Meng is seriously ill now, how can I talk about our love affairs at this time?" Gong Yuanzheng said.

"You are absolutely right. With your medical skills, you will soon be able to bring hope to Miss Meng. By then, will Miss Meng leave the palace?" Gong Shangjiao said meaningfully.

Gong Yuanzheng was silent for a moment, then said, "Brother, let's talk about this after Miss Meng recovers. The most urgent task right now is to find a way to cure her."

After saying that, Gong Yuanzheng turned and left, leaving Gong Shangjiao alone to think about his words.

It's not like he hadn't suspected Meng Qiqi was a bladeless assassin.

But after more than half a month, Meng Qiqi has been basically in a coma.

What happened in the palace during this period had nothing to do with Meng Qiqi.

On the contrary, Shangguan Qian and Yun Weishan have secrets. Whether they are really the Edgeless Assassins needs further investigation.

After Gong Shangjiao returned to Jiao Palace, he ran into Shangguan Qian.

After Shangguan Qian saluted, he reported to Gong Shangjiao on the recent affairs in Jiao Palace.

Gong Shangjiao listened and looked at Shangguan Qian, thinking that the previous investigation was indeed correct, this woman was indeed not simple.

On the surface, he appears respectful and polite, but he is actually very cunning and must have some unspeakable secrets.

After finishing the report, Shangguan Qian prepared to leave.

Gong Shangjiao suddenly stopped her: "Wait, I have something to ask you."

Shangguan Qian stopped and turned around, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure: "Mr. Jiao, please ask, Qianqian will tell you everything I know."

"How much do you know about Yunweishan?" Gong Shangjiao asked straight to the point.

He wanted to see Shangguan Qian's reaction to determine whether there was some connection between her and Yun Weishan.

Shangguan Qian frowned slightly and replied, "Yun Weishan? Qianqian only knows that she was the bride who entered the palace with Qianqian, and she doesn't know anything else."

Gong Shangjiao raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Really? But I heard that you two are very close."

"Master Jiao has misunderstood." Shangguan Qian quickly explained, "Qian Qian and Yun Weishan are just brides who were left behind. They occasionally meet and chat, but there is no other special relationship."

"It's better this way." Gong Shangjiao warned: "Don't do anything under my nose. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."

Shangguan Qian lowered her head and replied, "Yes, Qianqian understands."

After saying this, she bowed again and slowly left the room.

Gong Shangjiao looked at Shangguan Qian's departing back and sneered in his heart.

He is not so easy to fool. The more flawless Shangguan Qian's words are, the more it proves that she has something to hide.

It seems that I have to find an opportunity to test her.

Gong Shangjiao sent people to secretly monitor Shangguan Qian's every move, and at the same time conducted a more in-depth investigation into Yun Weishan's identity.

He believed that Shangguan Qian and Yun Weishan must be hiding some great secrets...

————Zheng Palace.

Gong Yuanzheng stayed quietly in the pharmacy alone, but his hands did not move at all.

Zheng Gong thought about Gong Shangjiao's words and his own feelings towards Miss Meng.

He realized that he might have a special liking for Miss Meng, but what exactly was it?

After all, it has been less than a day since Miss Meng woke up. What kind of feelings could he have towards her?

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Put it aside for now.

He suspected that Shangguan Qian and Yun Weishan were the assassins without a sharp edge, but no one believed him.

Two days ago, he went to test their opinions in person, but was fooled by them.

Gong Yuanzheng became extremely depressed when he thought of this.

He had no choice but to shift his attention to the work at hand. He carefully observed the medicinal herbs in his hand. These were the materials he had specially collected to study the antidote to the virus in Miss Meng's body.

He secretly made up his mind to solve the mystery of the virus in Miss Meng's body and find a way to cure her.

Gong Yuanzheng was immersed in the study of herbs. As time passed, he forgot everything around him.

After an unknown amount of time, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

There seemed to be some clues, so he hurriedly recorded them and prepared to explore further.

Meng Qiqi was not aware of the situation on Gong Yuanzheng's side.

When she saw the maid in the room leave, she sat up slightly and leaned against the head of the bed.

It seems that during the more than half a month that she lay in bed unconscious in Zheng Palace, she not only dispelled Gong Yuanzheng's suspicion, but also dispelled Gong Shangjiao's suspicion.

She took the right step.

Otherwise, according to the plot, she might have been quietly sent out by the people at the palace gate like other brides.

Next, she couldn't act rashly and had to wait until Yun Weishan followed Gong Ziyu into the back mountain before taking action.

Now it would be better to just maintain a healthy body.

This way you don't have to worry about being kicked out of the palace quickly.

After all, the virus in her body was caused by Gong Yuanzheng.

She just didn't make it easy for Gong Yuanzheng to detoxify.

He looks like a sickly person, so if something goes wrong in the back mountain, no one will suspect him.

Meng Qiqi closed her eyes and thought about her next plan.

She knew that Gong Yuanzheng's appearance must have provided some clues to the research on the antidote, and she had to speed up.

She decided to take advantage of the maid's concern for her to secretly obtain more information about Zheng Gong.

One night a few days later, Meng Qiqi sneaked into Gong Yuanzheng's study while he was in the pharmacy.

She searched through books and notes about Baicaocui, trying to find the key medicinal ingredients.

Just as she was busy, footsteps were heard outside the door, and she nervously hid behind the bookshelf.

The person who came in was Gong Yuanzheng, he looked a little tired.

He walked to the desk, sat down, and continued to study the formula of the antidote.

Meng Qiqi observed him quietly, waiting for an opportunity.

When Gong Yuanzheng left the study again, Meng Qiqi quickly picked up a piece of paper on the table. There were some strange symbols and words written on it, which looked like some kind of code.

She carefully hid the note in her sleeve and quietly left the study.

After returning to the room, Meng Qiqi carefully studied the steps on the note, which was most likely the recipe for Baicaocui.
