Upon hearing this, Gong Ziyu couldn't help but widen his eyes and look at Yun Weishan. Was the bride he had chosen also from Wufeng's group?
Yun Weishan remembered what Han Yasi had told her before she came to the palace gate: no matter what, she must stick to her identity. Her eyes became firm. "I don't know why Mr. Gong Er would say that my identity is not consistent. I am Yun Weishan from Lixi Town. My neighbors can all testify for me."
Gong Ziyu also jumped out at this moment, standing in front of Yun Weishan, "Miss Yun is definitely not the Wufeng Assassin!"
Hearing Gong Ziyu's words of defense, Yun Weishan suddenly looked at the man standing in front of her, and for some reason, she felt a warmth spreading through her heart.
But she kept telling herself that she was the Unsung Assassin, and that she had come to the palace to find the murderer who killed her sister Yun Que. No matter what Gong Ziyu was like, she could not have any feelings for him.
In fact, Yun Weishan, like Madam Lan, has a heart that longs for freedom, but she is not in control of her own destiny.
"Miss Yun's identity has been verified. What happened just now was merely a test of pressure. Please forgive me. After all, this is the bride chosen by my younger brother Ziyu, and as his elder brother, it's natural for me to be cautious." Gong Shangjiao gave Yun Weishan, who was feigning pitifulness, a deep look.
She does resemble Shangguan Qian in some ways; both of them have a pitiful look, as if someone has bullied them. If it weren't for Ruan Ruan, he might have become interested in her when he saw the jade pendant she wore at her waist. He is very susceptible to this kind of thing.
"The identities of the two young ladies have been confirmed, so please return to your respective palaces first. Tomorrow, they will move into their respective palaces as instructed by the elders."
"Yes," the two replied, and were then led away by the guards. Along the way, Song Qingli quietly kept her distance from Yun Weishan. Although she was very straightforward, her brothers had taught her some tricks before they arrived.
Mr. Gong Er would never test someone without a reason. She was standing there and Mr. Gong Er didn't seem to be testing her. It must be Yun Weishan's problem.
Song Qingli had no recollection of the letter from her father or the occasional conversations he had with Mr. Gong Er at home.
"What exactly do you mean? Why are you only testing Miss Yun? I didn't see you testing Miss Song either!" Gong Ziyu boldly shouted in front of Gong Shangjiao. Gong Shangjiao only glanced at him, and Gong Ziyu silently shut his mouth.
Gong Ziyu couldn't help but feel annoyed. Had he gone mad? How dare he speak to Gong Shangjiao like that? Gong Ziyu immediately shrank back. If Jin Fan hadn't been there today, he would definitely have hidden behind there.
“I have connections with Miss Song’s father and have met him, so I’m naturally at ease with him. But Yun Weishan is a different story. She’s the closest to Shangguan Qian. Brother Ziyu, shouldn’t I have my doubts?” Gong Shangjiao retorted, his tone completely different from that of Gong Yuanzheng and Gong Ruanruan.
"Elders, our younger brother Ziyu has grown up and will soon be married to support the entire Feather Palace. However, he is not yet capable of doing so. Why not take this opportunity to let him participate in the Three Realms Trial?"
"Once my younger brother Ziyu passes the trial and gains some authority in front of the servants, what do the elders think?" Gong Shangjiao said solemnly.
Upon hearing that he had to participate in the Three Realms Trial, Gong Ziyu's skin tightened. He vividly remembered how miserable his brother had been when he returned; if his brother was in such a state, what good could come of it for him?
But then I remembered my father telling me to listen to Miyazaki, how could I possibly listen! Just say you want my life!
The three elders discussed it and agreed that Gong Shangjiao was right. Gong Ziyu was now the master of the Feather Palace. He could do whatever he wanted before, but things were different now, and he had to stand up for himself.
