And Gong Yuanzheng is getting married and will soon be a father.
He had only been in the back mountain for about half a month, so why did the palace gates change so much? He must have been mistaken about the environment. He wanted to see his aunt, but before he even left the gates of the Feather Palace, he was stopped by his father's men.
Then, he learned of something very important: because the Izumo Lotus his father was taking had not been fully developed, its medicinal effects were naturally greatly reduced, and it was already quite late at that time.
As a result, Gong Ziyu only has three years left to live, so he has to grow up. Before he could even grieve, his father grabbed him to practice martial arts and handle official business, keeping him as busy as an ox plowing a field, with no time to stop.
Watching the two brothers hurriedly leave, Song Qingli couldn't help but sigh at the many troubles within the palace. Running around all day must have been exhausting. However, her illness had improved considerably thanks to the nourishment she had received recently.
She no longer coughed constantly as before, and her health had improved considerably. She felt that it wouldn't be long before she could go home. No matter how good the palace was, it was never as comfortable as home.
When the brothers Gong Shangjiao and Gong Yuanzheng arrived at the courtyard where Shangguan Qian and Yun Weishan were being held, they were both stunned. They hadn't left the courtyard before and this was their first time venturing out.
They lived quite far apart, and the person who stayed inside the house had no idea that someone else was living under the same roof as her.
"Young Master, Young Master Zheng..."
Now that her identity has been exposed, Shangguan Qian no longer needs to pretend to be pitiful to gain Gong Shangjiao's attention. She bows slightly and speaks without any emotion.
"Yuanzheng" Gong Shangjiao didn't want to waste any more time talking to them. He called out "Gong Yuanzheng" and took out a small porcelain bottle from his hidden weapon bag, handing it to the guard beside him. He didn't want to come into contact with these two disgusting people.
Upon receiving the pills, Yun Weishan asked, "What...is this?"
Gong Yuanzheng smiled at her with a sinister smile that instilled fear in anyone who looked at him: "Of course it's poison."
He didn't explain why, but those in the know understood perfectly well that the palace could never completely trust the assassin Wufeng. The two didn't ask further, simply putting the pills in their mouths and swallowing them. They were currently relying on the palace; if they didn't eat, it would imply disloyalty.
No one will leave a disloyal person behind.
Seeing that they had swallowed the pills, Gong Shangjiao coldly spoke up, "On the Lantern Festival, Gong Ziyu will come to take you out. Remember what you should and shouldn't do."
After saying that, Gong Shangjiao turned and left, and Gong Yuanzheng hurriedly followed.
Looking at the two assassins without blades, he would think of his relatives who were killed by the Cold-Clad Guest. The assassins without blades would always be his enemies. He still remembered what Ruan Ruan said about how he would fall in love with an assassin without blades in the future. If it weren't for her, he might have really fallen in love with the assassin he had trained according to his preferences.
Thinking of this, Gong Shangjiao couldn't help but despise the version of himself that Ruan Ruan had described. Even if Shangguan Qian was the last descendant of the Lonely Mountain Sect, even if she had no choice in the matter, it was not a reason for her to get rid of her identity as a Wufeng Assassin. He could fall in love with anyone... but he couldn't fall in love with a Wufeng Assassin!
