Yuanzheng's younger brother is still a child, Gong Shangjiao shook his head casually.
Since Gong Shangjiao needed to report to Zhi Ren upon his return, Jin Fu was sent back with Gong Yuanzheng.
"You must remember that you are my pet cat, and brother is my brother." Actually, what Gong Yuanzheng wanted to say was that she shouldn't call him brother, but those were her true feelings, and he couldn't say them out loud.
I'm so unhappy inside, but I don't know how to say it. I'm so angry, like a little dog about to explode.
【Oh, oh, oh, so you call me brother? What can you do about it? Waaah. Hmph~】
Gong Yuanzheng: "..."
Gong Yuanzheng, who couldn't say anything for a while, had to digest the insults he had been given and could only silently tell himself that he was the one who raised him.
Horn Palace
"Young Master Zheng"
Upon returning to the Corner Palace, Gong Yuanzheng immediately placed Gong Ruanruan on the cushion beside him and knelt down to quietly wait for his brother to return.
As soon as Gong Shangjiao entered the room, he saw the two children, one big and one small, both sitting obediently.
In that instant, upon hearing "Brother," Gong Ruanruan felt as if her human had transformed into a wagging little dog, practically leaping into Gong Shangjiao's arms.
One can't help but wonder if Gong Yuanzheng was a simp who adored his older brother in his past life.
"Brother, did you encounter any dangers along the way? Were you injured? It's all Zhi Ren's fault for calling you out even though we had already arrived at Old Dust Valley."
"An expedition is not a time for discussion or the handling of weapons."
"That's right, Ruanruan, don't you think so?"
Gong Ruanruan, who was lying comfortably with her eyes half-closed, was suddenly picked up and petted in his arms. "Mmm~" [That's true, it can only be said that Gong Shangjiao doesn't know how to be flexible, hmm... or maybe he trusts the Gongmen too much. Why would someone who controls resources outside the palace and has tons of money in his hands insist on supporting those idle people for free?]
And then there's the person who's adding to your troubles—someone who controls the palace's medicine supplies. Given the abundance of poisonous gas within the palace, antidotes are extremely scarce.
[Wouldn't it be better if Gong Shangjiao and Gong Yuanzheng joined forces and directly monopolized the palace gate? Why bother with all that trouble, letting that Gong Niuniu get the position of Blade Master by chance, even though that position isn't exactly prestigious—he'll never be able to leave the valley for the rest of his life.]
Gong Shangjiao looked at Gong Ruanruan, called out to her, and then nodded her little head. He couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder; it seemed as if this little one could understand what they were saying.
Thinking of this, Gong Shangjiao looked at Gong Yuanzheng sitting opposite him with a question in his eyes. When he saw Gong Yuanzheng nod slightly, he immediately understood that this fox was unusual.
"This time you should be able to stay at the palace gate for a few months. Recently, some sects in the martial arts world have joined Wufeng. You should be extra careful while you're at the palace gate, Yuanzheng." Gong Shangjiao said casually, his eyes secretly falling on the small body.
"Yes, Expedition knows."
"We have to be careful. After all, there are quite a few spies in the palace. If the palace didn't have strict standards for selecting servants, it would have been a sieve long ago. We still haven't found that guy called Wuji, hmm? Mist Princess, yes, both are Mist Princesses. She's managed to hide in the palace for nearly twenty years as a Wufeng."
This is all thanks to Zhi Ren and Elder Yue.
Upon hearing this, Gong Yuanzheng's eyes widened suddenly, and he became somewhat agitated, but he could only suppress his emotions for the sake of not being discovered.
[Hmph~ That Gong Hongyu is no good person. It's one thing to keep it a secret from everyone that Wu Ji is Wu Feng, but you weren't even on guard, almost letting them wipe out your base! Xiao Kou, can I please turn into human form soon? I want to strangle Gong Hongyu first!]
[?] Xiao Kou was watching Yun Zhiyu's TV series when it suddenly heard its beloved An'an calling it. There was nothing it could do; the host could access the entire plot on its own, and the key was that those plot points were all one-time events.
After the transmission, it stopped. Perhaps the main system felt that their systems were all idle, so each system was assigned a computer specifically for watching the plot. It was watching Gong Niuniu picking up a bargain and using it as a weapon.
【What are you doing? 】
"An'an, we're different. I can only find out the plot by watching TV episode by episode. I'm watching it right now." Xiao Kou took a sip of her jelly milk tea and paused the TV series that was playing.
[Didn't you say you'd always be with me? Were you lying?] But transmitting the plot is better than making her watch it episode by episode, since some parts are just so cringeworthy.
[An'an, I've been here for you, offering emotional support. See, I came as soon as you called.]
Okay, then you can continue watching.
【ok\(^o^)/~】
It needs to finish watching soon so it can gossip with the others. It's finally its turn to talk, and I'm so excited just thinking about it.
