Chapter 54 Cloud Feather CP Palace Expedition 24

Gong Shangjiao had anticipated this turn of events and was waiting for the other party.

"Brother." Gong Yuanzheng looked at Gong Shangjiao with a pitiful expression.

Gong Shangjiao sighed, "I warned you long ago not to have any designs on Sister Song."

"The Izumo Lotus will be blooming soon," Gong Yuanzheng said, changing the subject.

Gong Shangjiao was puzzled for a moment, then realized, "Izumo Lotus cures all diseases, you want to use this to propose marriage?"

Believe it or not, if we use this method, the Song family will definitely agree after some deliberation.

After all, compared to being separated forever, although the palace gate is far from the Song family in Qinghe, the Cloud Lotus can at least allow Song Xinning to truly live a normal life.

that is……

"Most importantly, it's Sister Song's idea; don't forget Madam Lan."

Song Xinning would never compromise her own nature by using marriage as a bargaining chip, and even if Chu Yun Chonglian could cure her, she would not agree.

Gong Yuanzheng said urgently, "Of course I won't force her. Chu Yun Chong Lian is just to ensure the Song family won't interfere. I will make her..." fall in love with me...

Gong Yuanzheng was too embarrassed to continue, and his face flushed red.

Women's Guest House -

Song Xinning looked at Si Xue blankly, "Hmm? Why does breakfast seem more plentiful than usual today? There are also two sets of bowls and chopsticks. Is someone going to eat with me?"

Si Xue smiled without saying a word, looking mysterious.

Suddenly, a figure jumped into the room through the window, and Song Xinning was so frightened that she quickly hid behind Si Xue.

When the person turned around, Song Xinning greeted him with delight.

"Third Brother, what brings you here?"

Song Changyi washed the dust off his hands with tea and explained, "I have a collaboration with Gong Shangjiao, so I'm not the only one who came."

Song Xinning handed over a handkerchief, "Are eldest brother and second brother here too?"

Song Changyi sat at the table. "My eldest brother and second brother didn't come, but my uncle did, along with several others from other families and sects, are all at the Conquest Palace."

Song Xinning glanced at Song Changyi, who was staring intently at the food, and smiled without asking any further questions. "Alright, let's eat first."

Song Changyi didn't stand on ceremony; they were family, so they started eating right away.

He's been traveling for days and has been eating dry rations every day. He rarely suffers this kind of hardship, so he'd better make sure to replenish his energy.

Clinic

A tall, imposing man with broad shoulders and a thick waist, dressed in an ill-fitting guard uniform, wandered around behind Jin Yu.

"I knew I shouldn't have come out. This palace gate is so boring."

"Second Master Xing, you're out here to familiarize yourself with the terrain! Not to have fun!"

"Song Laowu is there; he should have been the one to come out!"

He wouldn't have come out if it weren't for the indescribable feeling that kept urging him to come out and see what was going on after he entered the palace.

"Master Song will be coming to see us soon."

They weren't at ease with Master Xing because he was there to inspect the terrain.

But Master Xing insisted on coming out, so Master Song finally let him take him for a walk around the area.

As they turned the corner, the two stopped talking upon hearing footsteps. Master Xing straightened up and pretended to be a guard.

"Miss Shangguan!" Jin Yu bowed upon seeing Shangguan Qian.

Not hearing Master Xing's voice, Jin Yu turned his head and saw Master Xing staring straight at Shangguan Qian.

"Xing... hurry up and bow, what are you doing!" Jin Yu said angrily.

Why are you so engrossed in watching? Forget about the future, right now Shangguan Qian is hailed as the 'future Lady of the Blade'!

"No...it's nothing." Shangguan Qian shook her head.

Surprisingly, she didn't dislike the guard who was staring straight at her; instead, she felt he looked somewhat familiar and friendly.

"Um, sorry about that." Master Xing forgot his pretense and scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
