Gong Zishang was stunned as soon as she stepped out of the Shang Palace. She stared wide-eyed at the group of people carrying various things and walking around busily, her mind filled with doubt: What are they doing?
Gong Zishang grabbed a passing servant and asked urgently, "What are you doing?" Her gaze fell on the vibrant red bougainvillea balls on the trays the servants carried, and she had a rough idea of what was going on. She couldn't help but think of Gong Ziyu and Gong Shangjiao, and wondered to herself, "Could it be that Gong Shangjiao and Gong Ziyu are getting married?"
Wait a minute... I remember Yun Weishan was locked up in jail. I didn't expect Gong Er to be such an impatient person, hehehe!
However, what the servant said next startled Gong Zishang. The servant, head bowed and slightly bent over, replied respectfully, "Reporting to Miss, it is Young Master Zheng's wedding. The young master and elders have instructed us to prepare as quickly as possible."
Gong Zishang: !!!
Am I hearing things? What's going on? I was only locked up in the Shang Palace for a mere half a month, how could the palace gates have changed so much? Gong Er and Gong Ziyu both chose brides, but in the end, it was Gong Yuanzheng, that little poisoner, who got married?
There were just too many questions, and Gong Zishang felt like she couldn't process them all. Oh, and she still didn't know who the bride was!
So she quickly asked, "Do you know who the bride is?" Actually, deep down, Gong Zishang was a little excited, after all, she really wanted to see what kind of woman could successfully win over her brother, who was on a distant expedition. A little excited indeed!
"All I know is that Lady Zheng's name is Ruan Ruan, and nothing else." As soon as he finished speaking, the man bowed slightly to Gong Zishang, then picked up the tray and turned to leave.
Watching his departing figure, Gong Zishang couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Ruanruan? Why does that name sound so familiar?"
"I remember now, Gong Yuanzheng's cat is named Ruanruan, and it even has the surname Gong. I never expected Gong Yuanzheng to be so... to give his cat the name of his sweetheart." Thinking of this, Gong Zishang wanted to go and see if this girl named Ruanruan was as delicate and lovely as her name suggested.
Gong Zishang felt as if she had forgotten something important, but she couldn't quite remember what it was. Oh well, if she couldn't remember it, it couldn't be important! She thought she'd try to sneak into the Zheng Palace once she arrived, but when she got there, she realized she didn't need to bother. Everyone around her had already recognized her and was respectfully calling out:
"Young Miss"
"Young Miss"
...
Gong Zishang, feigning a solemn expression, strode in with her head held high. She went straight in, while Gong Ruanruan, due to preparations to be made throughout the palace, could only rest in a nearby pavilion.
This left Gong Zishang, who had come to the Zheng Palace, empty-handed. She had to find someone to lead the way, and only then did she see Gong Ruanruan leaning against a pillar in the pavilion, with Jin Fu standing beside her with a cold face. Seeing this scene, Gong Zishang couldn't help but chirp, "Like master, like guard. Just like Gong Shangjiao, they both have dead fish eyes!"
However, Gong Zishang would naturally not say such things to Jin Fu in person, because if it were to reach Gong Yuanzheng's ears, she would probably be in trouble.
"Young Miss" Jin Fu bowed respectfully to Gong Zishang, but at this moment, she had no time to care about such things. When she approached Gong Ruanruan, she was shocked to find that her belly was swollen, and it looked like she was about to give birth. Her mind was immediately filled with the thought that Gong Yuanzheng, that beast, had actually allowed such a well-behaved and lovely girl to follow him without any status or recognition.
If I hadn't been pregnant, I probably...
Okay, okay... I've been thinking a bit too much, haha...
At the same time, Gong Zishang was also carefully observing Gong Ruanruan. She knew Gong Zishang because she was the one who helped the Wufeng assassins enter the back mountain, was discovered, and was put in solitary confinement. She had a strong memory of Gong Zishang.
"You are Ruan Ruan~" Gong Zishang said in a low voice, slowly walking forward with a swaying hip, and sat down next to Gong Ruan Ruan. This disgusted Jin Fu, who was standing to the side. At the same time, he was also puzzled. The young lady had just been released from confinement. Shouldn't she have gone to the guard camp to find Jin Fan?
Why did we skip the places we should have gone to and come to the places we shouldn't have come to?
Considering that she was Gong Yuanzheng's older sister, and since she couldn't be impolite by calling her by her full name, nor did she want to address her as "Young Miss" like others, she could only greet her with, "Hello, Sister Zishang~"
Gong Zishang: (≧ω≦) How can you be so cute?!
The thought of having to strain my voice while others have such soft, sweet voices is just so incredibly pleasant!
