If he knew he was a demon, and one who knew nothing but eating, drinking, and having fun, he probably would have skinned her alive to make a scarf. Gong Ruanruan completely agreed; he looked fierce and menacing from the outside.
Gong Yuanzheng was engrossed in studying the documents in his hands, anxiously awaiting Gong Shangjiao's arrival. Time ticked by, night fell, and Gong Shangjiao finally arrived in a flurry.
She happened to run into Gong Ruanruan, who was heading out for dinner, when she arrived. Eating is the most important thing in the world, so she watched Gong Shangjiao hurrying off and couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Do these two have too much free time on their hands?"
But seeing how busy they were, they didn't seem to have much free time at all. One was always going to see another, and the other was always visiting another. If she didn't know they were brothers, and that Gong Shangjiao in the TV series did indeed like women, she would have thought the two brothers were having an affair.
Before Gong Yuanzheng discovered her, she had no idea who they were guarding against. She was just a little kitten who could only meow, so what kind of secrets could she possibly reveal? Thinking of this, Gong Ruanruan shook her head helplessly and slowly walked towards the place where she was going to eat.
"Brother, Zhi Ren will die tonight." Gong Yuanzheng thought to himself, deciding to keep some things from him for the time being. He did not mention the miraculous flower that Ruan Ruan had given him that could save lives, nor did he reveal the truth that even if Zhi Ren were revived, he would only have three years to live.
He knew that his brother valued the palace above all else and prioritized its interests above all else. Although the events of that year were very likely related to Zhi Ren, he did not know his brother's true thoughts at this moment.
Let's wait until this is confirmed before saying anything. By then, my brother won't be able to say anything to him.
After all, even puppies can hold grudges!
"Today I went to play chess with Zhi Ren for a while, but the young master suddenly came in, so I left first. Zhi Ren gave me a secret order to investigate the matter of the Hunyuan Zheng family. Do you have any way to protect Zhi Ren from death, Yuanzheng brother?"
Since Gong Huanyu has decided to eliminate the Blade Master but not to assume the position himself, he must be planning something big. We absolutely cannot let Gong Ziyu take the Blade Master's position.
Even if Gong Zishang were to take the position of Blade Master, she wouldn't voice any opinions, but Gong Ziyu absolutely wouldn't. If Gong Ziyu were to actually sit in that position, the entire palace would likely descend into chaos.
“Brother, one of the Izumo Lotuses I carefully cultivated has already bloomed halfway. Although it may affect the efficacy of the medicine if it is not fully open, it will definitely save Zhi Ren’s life.” Gong Yuanzheng said softly, his lowered eyes slightly darkening, clearly realizing that his brother still cared about this matter.
Gong Shangjiao nodded, then patted Gong Yuanzheng's head. "Thank you, Yuanzheng."
"Brother, don't be so polite with Yuanzheng."
Then Gong Shangjiao and Gong Yuanzheng talked for a long time about the various arrangements in the palace. Meanwhile, Gong Ruanruan, who had already eaten and drunk her fill, slowly walked back with her round belly, which looked like she had stuffed a small watermelon inside.
Old Wu cooked some new dishes today, and she wanted to devour the whole bowl on the spot. However, because she ate so indulgently and heartily, her stomach is now so heavy it looks like it's about to fall off. If she weren't not a petite little cat, her big belly would probably be pressed intimately against the ground by now!
