Chapter 157 Jin丨Jiang Wenxue Exclusive Release (30,000 nutrient solution plus update)

System screams: [What are you going to do? Don't reward him! ]

Xue Chen: [Of course I can't reward him, don't forget Xiaofen's character. ]

System: [What is Xiaofen's character? ]

Xue Chen answered it with his body.

Ignoring Gong Jiu's murderous eyes, Yuan Feishuang walked into the house naturally. He asked as he walked: "Are you okay? How did you get hurt like this?"

System: [Smiling Yan Wang? ]

Xue Chen: [What smiling Yan Wang, Xiaofen doesn't understand human affairs. ]

Because he lost his fertility at a very young age, the equally infertile Seer of the Seed certainly couldn't teach him about this.

Yuan Feishuang only knew the most superficial things. In fact, he was confused and had no idea what was going on.

Gong Jiu had many attacks in front of him, but Yuan Feishuang only saw him being beaten and did not connect the beating with that kind of thing.

According to his character setting, Yuan Feishuang was sincerely concerned about the other party, regardless of whether the scarred man in front of him was Xue Chen or Gong Jiu.

Gong Jiu did not appreciate his kindness and said coldly: "What are you doing here?"

He picked up a handkerchief and wiped the blood off his hands, and the exposed skin was clean as before.

Yuan Feishuang walked over and walked around him: "Your injuries healed so quickly. What kind of martial arts is this? Why did you hurt yourself? Doesn't it hurt?"

Gong Jiu gave Xiao He a look, and he looked at him pleadingly, then looked towards the bedroom. His sight passed through the veil and fell on Xue Chen who was still unconscious, and he reluctantly stepped back.

Gong Jiu took off his bloodstained outer robe, which had been ripped apart by the whip. He wiped the blood off his arms and chest with a clean spot: "If it didn't hurt, I wouldn't have hurt myself like this."

Yuan Feishuang: "Why?"

Gong Jiu: "Because I like being beaten."

Yuan Feishuang was stunned: "Why?"

Gong Jiu was taller than him, and the two stood very close. Gong Jiu lowered his head slightly, looked at Yuan Feishuang at eye level, and said jokingly: "Because I crave pain and am obsessed with it. Only pain can make me react."

Yuan Feishuang: "What?"

System: [You did it on purpose?]

Xue Chen: [Is it possible that he can stop committing suicide at any time and I didn't force him?]

System: [But why put yourself in this situation?]

Xue Chen: [I said I wanted to teach him a lesson. Look at the people he persecuted. Mr. Hu had no choice, Xiao He had no choice, and if Xiao Fen's martial arts were worse than his, he would have no choice either. My brother is just too self-centered and doesn't care about other people's feelings at all. But this matter is not something I can control, I can only fight violence with violence. 】

System: [Even you can't do anything about it? 】

Xue Chen: [This is what an authoritarian society is like. It maintains various classes through fear and oppression. The deeper the fear and oppression, the more unable the people below will be to resist. They will put filters on the people above them and won't even have the thought of resistance. And the people in the upper class will not regard the people below as human beings.

[Not only my brother, but everyone is like this. This is a social problem. My brother is just an ordinary person. He has lived in such an environment since he was a child. His cognition is like this. No matter how I discipline him, he will not change. 】

System: [It's so difficult. 】

Yuan Feishuang talked to the system in his mind, still maintaining the same expression as before. His beautiful eyes were a little blank, and it seemed that he had difficulty understanding the meaning of Gong Jiu's words.

Gong Jiu admired his expression enough, his eyes passed over his waist and abdomen: "Don't you understand yet?"

Yuan Feishuang was particularly sensitive in this matter. His face suddenly turned pale, and he looked at Gong Jiu fiercely, but his voice was softer: "Are you mocking me?"

Gong Jiu: "I don't mean that. You have been asking questions, and I just gave you the answer."

Yuan Feishuang: "I will tell your brother!"

Gong Jiu's indifferent expression could not be maintained, he said gloomily: "Don't tell him!"

System: [Why hasn't the main body woken up yet?]

Xue Chen: [Maybe during the time when Xiaofen rushed over, my brother took other protective measures.]

Yuan Feishuang: "Why should I listen to you? I have to tell him. Where is Xue Chen? Xue Chen!"

Gong Jiu took half a step forward and stopped him.

His outer robe had been thrown to the ground, and the clothes inside were also tattered and could not cover his pale skin. His hair was also messy, far from the previous one.

Despite his hideous appearance, Gong Jiu's aura was still strong.

He always recovered quickly, not only from his physical injuries, but also from his mentality.

Even if he was kneeling on the ground just now, hugging someone's legs and begging for a whip, after being satisfied, he could instantly get rid of the pain and return to a rational and self-reliant state.

Gong Jiu's eyes were like ice. Even though he knew he was no match for Yuan Feishuang, he was still fearless: "Big brother is resting, don't disturb him."

Yuan Feishuang immediately used a grappling technique. Gong Jiu knew how powerful he was and didn't dare to let him get close to him. He retreated hastily, but was still caught by the hem of his clothes

. This is the brilliance of the "Little Abandoned Wife's Grappling Technique". Even if there is no physical contact, as long as it touches an object on the opponent's body, even if it is just a strand of hair, the person can be subdued.

Gong Jiu was subdued by him before, and he thought it was because the distance was too close.

This time he was already alert, and deliberately kept a few steps away from Yuan Feishuang, and reacted quickly, dodging immediately when Yuan Feishuang attacked, but he still lost unexpectedly.

He was shocked. Although Yuan Feishuang was young, he lived up to his reputation and the rumors in the martial arts world.

Yuan Feishuang dragged him to the bedroom and saw the original body lying on the bed sleeping.

He did not take off his clothes, and a small part of his robe was exposed under the quilt. His face was extremely pale, and even in his sleep, his eyebrows were still slightly wrinkled, and he seemed very uneasy.

Xue Chen: [How magical.]

System: [What's so magical?]

Xue Chen: [Although the original body is sleeping, the mind is awake. Didn't you say that my use of a vest is equivalent to the sleeping vest dreaming? Now it is both a dream and reality, like truth and illusion, who can tell the difference? ]

System: [You are so poetic. ]

Xue Chen: [There are some things I didn't say, not because I don't understand, but because I don't want to say it. ]

System: [I know this, it's romantic to think about it, but it's childish to say it out loud. ]

Xue Chen: [No, it's just that there is a system that has been spoiling the fun, and it writes short essays from time to time. ]

System: [......]

Yuan Feishuang walked over, smoothed the original body's brows, lowered his voice, and called softly: "Xue Chen, I'm here to see you."

The original body had no intention of going online at all.

Xue Chen: [I'm not going to die, am I? 】

System: [No way? Has your brother become so perverted that he has a fetish for corpses? ]

Xue Chen locked it in a small dark room.

Yuan Feishuang tried the subject's breath and was relieved to confirm that he was still breathing.

He leaned over to the subject's ear: "Your brother is a lunatic who likes to be beaten."

Gong Jiu's eyebrows jumped. Even though he knew that his elder brother would not wake up for a while, he was still very nervous.

He warned: "Don't say that again."

Yuan Feishuang looked at Gong Jiu triumphantly and stopped lowering his voice. He held the subject's hand: "Look at him, he has been beaten into a state of being, and he still threatens me..."

Gong Jiu suddenly attacked him, using his fingers as swords, and attacked him from behind mercilessly. It seemed that he wanted to kill Yuan Feishuang.

Yuan Feishuang dodged hastily. He climbed onto the original's bed, pulled the original up from the bed, and made him stand in front of him: "Xue Chen, your brother is going to kill me!"

The unconscious original was limp and weak, with his head lowered, leaning on Yuan Feishuang's chest, relying on his arm to support himself and not falling.

Gong Jiu was afraid of hurting his brother, so he quickly withdrew his strength.

He looked at Yuan Feishuang coldly: "Don't bother my elder brother anymore."

Yuan Feishuang touched the original body's cheek: "What's wrong with him?"

Gong Jiu: "Eldest brother is weak, don't you know?"

Yuan Feishuang: "Is he sick again?"

Gong Jiu: "If you really regard him as a friend, then don't disturb him when he is resting. Big brother can't stand stimulation. It's okay that he slept deeply today. If he knew my secret when he was awake, I'm afraid he would get sick again."

Yuan Feishuang helped the original body lie down, "You two brothers, each has your own illness, and none of you is good."

Gong Jiu: "How good can you be?"

Yuan Feishuang thought of his own body and his senior brother who couldn't lift his head, and his face was gloomy.

He got off the bed and said to Gong Jiu: "Let's go out and fight."

Gong Jiu followed him outside.

The snow fell a little heavier than before, and a thin layer accumulated on the ground.

The cold wind blew up the snowflakes and fell on the two people.

The two people also had deep internal strength, reaching the point where they were immune to cold and heat. The moment the snow fell on their bodies, it immediately melted into water.

One white and one pink confronted each other in the snow, white mist drifted from their bodies, and they looked like immortals.

Xue Chen released the system from the small dark room: [Do you think my brother looks like Ji Gong?]

System: [...]

Xue Chen: [Xiaofen should be very beautiful at this moment, that poem is really appropriate, but it's a pity that the original body is still asleep, and Xie Heng is not convenient to come over, so he can't see what Xiaofen looks like from the perspective of an observer.]

The ice pond and white mountain are condensed with flying snow, and the immortal is invisible and shocked by the frost and cold.

Yuan Feishuang is extremely handsome, and his temperament is gentle and soft, but because of this appearance and this rare silver-red robe, he seems a little distant.

He lives alone in the snowy mountains, and his "swift dragon without shadow" light skill allows him to move freely and unrestrainedly.

If someone accidentally breaks into Bingchi Mountain and catches a glimpse of Yuan Feishuang, they will definitely mistake him for a god.

System: [You are so narcissistic.]

Xue Chen: [I am confident!]

An ice flower fell on Yuan Feishuang's eyelashes. He blinked, and the snow melted into water droplets, half hanging at the end of his eyelashes, and did not drip for a long time.

Yuan Feishuang raised his hand and wiped his eyes.

Gong Jiu took the opportunity to move. He didn't have a sword or any other weapons in his hands, but every blade of grass and every tree was his weapon. Even the snowflakes floating in the air could kill people.

His palm wind was not strong at all, but extremely gentle. It changed the wind direction and made the snowflakes rush towards Yuan Feishuang.

Yuan Feishuang's lightness skill was superb and he dodged this palm.

He seemed to have turned into a snowflake, moving with the flow and floating beside Gong Jiu.

We can't let him get close!

Gong Jiu's heart was alarmed and he dodged in panic. He used the "Ruyi Orchid Hand" to try to force back the silver-red color on his side.

Yuan Feishuang seemed to be unaware of the power of this martial arts and had no intention of backing down. He went straight up to meet it, as if ready to take this palm.

With victory in hand, Gong Jiu was delighted, but his expression became even more tense.

Just as he was about to slap Yuan Feishuang's palm, Gong Jiu suddenly couldn't move.

Not only that, even the acupuncture points in his upper body were blocked, and he couldn't even use his internal energy.

A gentle smile flashed in the eyes of the pink-clothed young man: "Young Master, you lost again."

Gong Jiu realized that he seemed to be fighting against him, but in fact he was using his other hand to brush behind him.

His clothes were disheveled and his hair was messy. He didn't know when he was touched by him, and the extremely exquisite grappling hand instantly subdued him and sealed his acupuncture points.

Gong Jiu: "I give up."

Yuan Feishuang: "Then I won't be polite."

He walked up to Gong Jiu and broke all his bones without mercy. Even though Gong Jiu's face flushed and he couldn't use his internal strength and couldn't suppress himself, his body had obvious reactions.

Gong Jiu didn't know whether he was happy or in pain. He fell in the snow in tattered clothes. The snow was too thin and melted into snow water when he approached, soaking his clothes.

Gong Jiu looked at Yuan Feishuang pleadingly: "Whip... hit me with a whip..."

Yuan Feishuang: "I won't."

Gong Jiu: "Please... please..."

Yuan Feishuang smiled and used bone-setting techniques to restore his limbs. He took a few steps back curiously and watched Gong Jiu wailing in pain on the ground: "Is this what normal people like you do?"

System: [Xiaofen is the pervert, right? You call Gong Jiu a normal person!]

Xue Chen: [Not Xiaofen, but me.]

System: [I'm scared, can you be more normal?]

Xue Chen: [It's okay to be scared. 】

System: [……]

Yuan Feishuang moved further away, squatted down and propped up his arms, like a child who had found something new and interesting, watching with great interest.

He looked at Gong Jiu's disrespectful look: "Is this what they call husband and wife sex? Then won't we take turns to be beaten?"

Gong Jiu panted quickly, looking at Yuan Feishuang with eyes full of pleading: "Untie my acupoints, please..."

Yuan Feishuang: "No."

Gong Jiu crawled towards him, and Yuan Feishuang hurriedly stood up and backed away: "Stay away from me."

Gong Jiu began to tear off his clothes, tearing off his already tattered clothes, and sticking a large area of ​​his skin to the cold snow water, trying to calm himself down with the cold, and at the same time he couldn't help biting his wrist, and the blood kept flowing.

Xue Chen: [It's a pity that Da Mian is not here, what a waste.]

System: [Why are you suddenly perverted?]

Xue Chen: [I think people should be more open and honest.]

System: […]

It shouldn't dislike Xue Chen's arrogance. It's better to be arrogant and stubborn than to not even pretend now!

The system didn't understand why Xue Chen didn't want to expose Gong Jiu directly at first, but now it can completely put itself in his shoes and empathize with him.

Yuan Feishuang said with disdain: "It's so dirty. Fortunately, I have practiced Da Qizi's grappling technique and cannot be humane, otherwise I would be disgusted to the point of vomiting."

Gong Jiu raised his head and looked at him with vicious eyes.

Yuan Feishuang: "Don't look at me like that, I'm telling the truth. Thank you for clearing up my doubts. I agree to your request and won't tell Xue Chen. But if you dare to humiliate me again, I will bring up the past, so you'd better take care of yourself."

After that, he jumped onto the roof, raised his hand and grabbed a snowflake: "Such clean snow."

-

Gong Jiu rubbed on the ground for a long time, forced himself back to the house, took out

a needle and stabbed himself. After his eldest brother fell into a coma, he had been whipped. The reason for the attack at this time was that Yuan Feishuang sealed his internal strength and could not suppress it. His self-control seemed to have become weak.

Fortunately, Gong Jiu calmed down quickly, and the sealed acupoints also untied themselves over time.

He did not call anyone over, but took a cold shower directly, cleaned off the dirt on his body, dried his wet hair with his inner strength, changed into his brother's clothes, lay on the low couch, and became dazed.

After a while, there was a sudden noise in the bedroom.

Gong Jiu quickly got up and went inside.

Xue Chen had opened his eyes, and still looked a little confused.

Gong Jiu: "Brother, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Xue Chen: "I don't have the strength."

After he spoke, he realized that his voice was also very weak. If it wasn't for the silence in the room, it might not be heard clearly.

Gong Jiu: "I fed you some medicine, and you will be fine after the effect of the medicine wears off, don't be afraid, brother. Apart from the weakness, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"

Xue Chen: [He is so strict.]

System: [? 】

Xue Chen:【This is to prevent me from yelling.】

System:【Doesn't he care about you? You always pretend to be sick and look so unwell, how dare he give you drugs?】

Xue Chen:【That's why he keeps asking me. I have to act, otherwise he will continue to give you drugs.】

Xue Chen closed his eyes and frowned: "What did you give me to drink?"

Gong Jiu: "It's a muscle softener and a knockout drug, and I have reduced the dosage."

Xue Chen:【No wonder I feel like I was anesthetized.】

System:【Is this thing addictive?】

Xue Chen:【It depends on the specific ingredients and the dosage. My brother shouldn't give me a very strong drug. I guess it will be metabolized after a night's sleep. Otherwise, I wouldn't have regained consciousness now. 】

His vision gradually regained clarity, and he recalled what happened before he fainted. He looked at Gong Jiu as if he was looking at a stranger: "You want to lock me up?"

Gong Jiu said gently: "How can you lock me up? It's because my elder brother is too stubborn, and I have no choice but to do this. When I finish my work, my elder brother will naturally understand my intention. As long as my elder brother thinks it through, you are still the eldest son of the palace, and we can still be the best brothers like before."

Xue Chen: "Dad will not let you go."

Gong Jiu: "Just don't let him find out."

He bent down and tried to pick up Xue Chen.

Xue Chen saw his intention and struggled hard, but he couldn't get away because the effect of the medicine had not completely dissipated.

He was no match for his younger brother when he didn't have Chinese medicine, and it is even more difficult to resist him now.

Gong Jiu tied his brother's arm, walked out of the room with a cold face, and brought him to his own residence.

As the prince, his residence would certainly not be too bad, and King Taiping always treated everyone equally, but Xue Chen was frail and sickly, and Gong Jiu had deep internal strength, and the two had different perceptions of temperature, so it was a bit cold here for Xue Chen.

There was no low couch that he usually used, so Gong Jiu carried him to the bed.

He went to the closet and took out a white coat, and turned around to find that Xue Chen was standing up with the help of the bed frame.

Gong Jiu hurried over to support Xue Chen, pressed his shoulders hard, and forced him to sit back on the bed: "Where are you going, brother?"

Xue Chen: "Anywhere is better than here."

He still spoke weakly, but his tone was extremely cold.

Gong Jiu took off his coat, ignored his brother's struggle, and changed him into his own clothes: "Brother, be Xue Lian for a while, stay here and recover from your illness. You are my brother, I won't hurt you."

Xue Chen: "You are hurting yourself."

Gong Jiu laughed: "Even if I am hurting myself, this is the path I have chosen. I am an adult and don't have to listen to my brother."

Xue Chen was silent.

Gong Jiu helped him lie down: "I will come to see you often."

Xue Chen: "What do you smell like?"

Gong Jiu was shocked.

He had just been disciplined by Yuan Feishuang, and although he had been cleaned, he couldn't guarantee that there was no smell at all.

He looked at his brother steadily, his heart hesitating, not knowing whether he should tell the truth at this time.

Xue Chen frowned: "Is it Xiao He?"

Gong Jiu: "No!"

Xue Chen: "Xiao He is a good girl. If you are interested in her, please don't force her for my sake."

Gong Jiu: "I don't like Xiao He! It's... it's me... I..."

Xue Chen closed his eyes: "Since you have decided not to let me discipline you anymore, why are you so nervous? This is your private matter and has nothing to do with me."

Gong Jiu held his hand: "Brother."

Xue Chen ignored him.

Gong Jiu: "You should have a good rest. I'll leave for a while. When I finish dealing with things outside, I will come to have dinner with you in the evening."

He almost fled, and couldn't wait to leave his brother's sight.

Xue Chen opened his eyes, watched his brother's back disappear, changed his posture, and lay lazily on the bed.

Xue Chen: [Happy holiday life begins! ]

System: [Ah? 】

Xue Chen:【During this period, the main body does not need to do anything, and there is no one around to disturb it. You can sleep as long as you want, do whatever you want, and eat whatever you want. Be happy! 】

System:【Will your brother not control your diet? 】

Xue Chen:【If he wants to, why don’t Xiao Mian and Xiao Fen secretly send it to you? 】

System:【What about your brother? He will definitely gather forces to attack your father. 】

Xue Chen:【It’s okay. Xiao Qi and Xie Heng are still here. 】

System:【What about Da Mian? 】

Xue Chen:【Da Mian will stay in Jiangnan and exercise the power of the governor of Xidu on my behalf. 】

Gong Jiu and Xue Chen exchanged identities, which must have resulted in his newly acquired position being exchanged as well. He might take the opportunity to do something bad and force the original body to be tied to his ship, so the existence of Da Mian is very necessary.

System: [I still think it is better for Xiao Qi to stay in Jiangnan. Da Mian returns to the capital, not only to protect you, but also to protect your father.]

Xue Chen: [You just wait and see.]

Gong Jiu arranged for his subordinates from the Nameless Island to guard outside the yard, prohibiting anyone except Gong Jiu from entering or leaving, and not allowing the guards to approach the yard, let alone talk to Xue Chen.

Xiao He didn't know where Gong Jiu had chased her away, and she never showed up once. On the first day Xue Chen was locked up, no one saw him except Gong Jiu.

After being repaired by the vest, Xue Chen's soul is no longer as fragile as before.

The effect of the medicine had long dissipated. When Gong Jiu was not around, he practiced his internal strength in the house and read books when he was free. When Gong Jiu came, he pretended to be weak, lying depressed on the bed, talking to the system. After

only being locked in the yard for one day, Gong Jiu couldn't stand it anymore.

He came with the medicated food, and seeing his brother with his back to him, he asked gently: "Brother, are you awake? Come and eat something."

Xue Chen turned around.

Gong Jiu came over and helped him sit down, put a small table beside the bed, and put the food on it.

He picked up a bowl of chicken soup and brought it to Xue Chen's mouth.

Xue Chen did not drink. He turned his head away and said weakly, "How is Dad?"

Gong Jiu's expression faded a little: "He's fine."

Xue Chen: "That's good."

Gong Jiu: "Brother, you should eat something. How can your body be healthy without eating?"

Xue Chen slapped the chicken soup in front of him, bent over, lay on the bed, and put his hand on his heart.

Gong Jiu: "What's wrong with you?"

Xue Chen: "Disgusting, take it away."

Gong Jiu's face turned pale, and it took him a while to react. Xue Chen was talking about the medicinal food, not himself.

He put away the food and put it outside the door, sat on the bed, patted Xue Chen on the back, and waited until his face looked better before asking with concern: "Why are you suddenly disgusted? Is your brother still having a headache?"

"Didn't you do it?"

"What?"

Xue Chen stopped talking.

Gong Jiu: "Is it the medicine from the day before yesterday? But I clearly asked Wen Qu, and those medicines are mild in nature. Even if you are the eldest brother, it will be fine if you take less."

System: [Are you going to implicate Wen Qu! ]

Xue Chen: [No, how dare Wen Qu say so confidently? My brother has to bear the blame. ]

Xue Chen: "Did Wen Qu guarantee this, or did you imagine it this way? In the final analysis, you just want to imprison me. Now it is as you wish, what else are you dissatisfied with?"

Gong Jiu: "Brother... I don't mean to harm you..."

Xue Chen: "Then let me out."

Gong Jiu shook his head.

Xue Chen sighed: "I'm tired, you go back."

Gong Jiu: "I'm usually next door. If you have something to do, knock on the wall and I'll hear it."

Xue Chen: "Okay."

Gong Jiu left with the food box.

After a long while, Pei Rui climbed over the roof and came in through the window.

Xue Chen immediately got up from the bed, took a few packets of food from Pei Rui's hand, and put them on the table to eat.

Pei Rui bought half a roast goose and a pound of braised beef, as well as steamed buns, fish vinegar, and boiled peanuts in salt water. These were all things that could be eaten directly. Even if they couldn't be finished in one meal, they could be put away and saved for the next meal.

Xue Chen took a knife and cut the roast goose into small portions. He used the chopsticks Pei Rui brought to pick up a piece of greasy meat and dipped it in the sauce next to it: [It's delicious. This is what people eat.]

System: [If you keep fasting but get fat, how will you explain it to your brother?]

Xue Chen: [There must be something wrong with his medicine!]

System: [There are hormones, right?]

Xue Chen: [That's right!]

The system found that since Xue Chen admitted that he was more perverted than Gong Jiu, he had completely let himself go.

Gong Jiu can't hurt him at all!

Xue Chen had a full meal and was not hungry at all in the evening.

Gong Jiu brought some light vegetarian dishes this time, which looked tasteless.

Xue Chen was not interested and refused to touch it after two bites, but his attitude towards Gong Jiu became better, which made Gong Jiu even more panicked.

Gong Jiu fed him some water and fled again.

Xue Chen sighed: [Why is he so unsteady?]

System: [Why is he unsteady?]

Xue Chen: [Can't you see it? He is really trying hard to make me happy. I acted so weak and was very nice to him, and he almost took the initiative to let me out.]

System: [It seems so, are you going out soon? 】

Xue Chen: [On the contrary, my brother has realized that he has no resistance in front of me, and he probably won't come over in the next few days. He probably won't send Xiao He, and may ask the people from the Nameless Island to take care of me on time. Starting tomorrow, I can eat a lot with Xiao Mian! 】

System: [……]

-Since

placing his brother in his own residence, Gong Jiu announced to the outside world that Xue Lian had left the palace. He disguised himself as Xue Chen, seemingly recuperating in the yard, but in fact he has been in contact with the outside world.

Two days is enough time for him to establish contacts with his former subordinates.

Gong Jiu did not take action personally, but sent his men to take the old man's things. After integrating the new forces, he sent people to contact the Jin people.

The Jin people suffered a setback from the "poisonous rust" and suffered heavy losses in the battle with the King of Taiping. Wanyan Honglie was also hit hard by this incident. Coupled with Wanyan Hongxi's revenge, he was no longer the same as before.

The other princes of the Jin Kingdom were not as smart as Wanyan Honglie, but they were also courageous and brave. However, they always looked down on the people of Xingguo and took the goodwill of Wuming Island for granted. They even wanted to suppress it and use Wuming Island for their own purposes.

Gong Jiu naturally did not want to be inferior to others, so he could not negotiate for the time being.

But Fang Ying looked over there and sent someone to send the Taihu stone over.

Gong Jiu had to take his brother's future into consideration.

He personally went to see the quality of the Taihu stones, selected three that looked good, and ordered people to bring them into the palace and present them to Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji was very satisfied with this.

It was well known that Xue Chen was in poor health. He had been lying in bed at home to recuperate, and it was difficult for him to even get up. It was freezing cold recently, and ordinary people were unwilling to run around.

Zhao Ji didn't think Xue Chen would really go looking for Taihu stones, and he had no hope at all.

The ministers in the court often gave him gifts. Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Yang Jian and others would present some good things every now and then. Zhao Ji was accustomed to receiving gifts and his requirements became higher and higher.

When he received the Taihu stones sent by Xue Chen, he felt the long-lost warmth.

That child must have cared about him very much, so he dragged his sick body to work hard and found Taihu stones for him from Jiangnan!

He felt the sincerity of the heart, and was more and more satisfied with the stones. He immediately rewarded Xue Chen and sent a lot of precious medicinal materials.

Gong Jiu accepted the decree on behalf of his brother to thank him, and quietly put all those things into the warehouse.

After the person who announced the decree left, the housekeeper counted the warehouse and said happily: "Now the eldest son has established a firm foothold in the court. If the prince knew, he would be very happy."

Gong Jiu smiled lightly: "I can be so smooth with the help of my father's shadow."

Housekeeper: "The eldest son is too modest. For other families, even if their ancestors were officials in the court, how many of them can get the favor of the officials?"

Gong Jiu smiled.

The housekeeper looked at the list in front of him and said, "There are more and more things in this warehouse. I want to count them and put them back in order."

Gong Jiu was alert, but he had to keep smiling: "Okay, when Uncle Cheng is done, just send the list to me."

Housekeeper: "Yes."

Yun Heyan followed behind Gong Jiu, pretending that she didn't know that the young master in front of her was a fake, and protected Gong Jiu as if she was protecting the original.

Gong Jiu also had to pretend in front of Yun Heyan.

He slowly returned to his residence and looked at Yun Heyan: "You did a good job this time. Is there anything you want?"

Yun Heyan: "It is my honor to work for you, sir."

Gong Jiu smiled: "You are too kind, sir. But I just have something here and I want to ask you. With your ability, it shouldn't be too difficult to do it." Yun

Heyan: "I won't do it."

System: [The smile on his face froze.]

Xue Chen: [My brother is really interesting.]

System: [......] Is this the reason why you have been bullying him?

Gong Jiu moved his mouth, but because of his brother's status, he couldn't say it.

If it were him, he would have turned cold at this time and questioned why the other party was unwilling.

You just said that it was your honor to work for me!

Yun Heyan was very calm, he didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with what he said, he said to Gong Jiu: "If Master Xue has nothing else to do, I will leave first."

Gong Jiu: "..."

He said as if you would do it if there was something to do.

Gong Jiu adjusted himself in time, he said gently and caringly: "Master Yun, is there something urgent?"

Yun Heyan: "It's not a big deal, it's just that I haven't finished what Master Xue told me before."

Gong Jiu didn't know what Xue Chen had told him, and he couldn't ask, so he could only say: "So that's how it is. If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten it."

Yun Heyan said goodbye and left, heading back to Jiangnan.

The system was a little disappointed to see that he let Gong Jiu off so easily: [I thought you would bite him once before you left, drink his blood, and then expose his identity in person.]

Xue Chen: [It's impossible to expose it. Wouldn't that force my brother to do something desperate? And I can't drink his blood either. I promised him that I wouldn't drink the blood of my original body. If I can't control it, I'll drink my own.]

System: [You're quite trustworthy. 】

Yun Heyan returned to Jiangnan with the fish brand. There were changes on the front line. Tong Guan wanted to lead the troops himself, and contacted King Taiping several times, hoping that he could borrow troops.

These things had little to do with Xue Chen, but Zhu Ting had completed the production of the wheelchair ahead of time.

Yu Qi happily went to get the wheelchair, and after paying the balance, he sat on it directly to try it out.

Lu Xiaofeng: "Are you going to look for Xie Heng?"

Yu Qi: "Yes!"

Lu Xiaofeng asked: "Can I go with you? After all, Xie Heng is also my friend..."

He stopped talking suddenly before he finished.

Because Yu Qi was sitting in the wheelchair, looking at him solemnly.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Why are you jealous again?"

"I'm not jealous!" Yu Qi, "I just didn't expect you to be such a casual person!"

Xue Chen: [If Xie Heng's soul is not me, based on their interactions, he would have been forgotten long ago. Who would still remember who he is? Lu Xiaofeng is so shameless. He can call us friends after only meeting once.]

System: [He is so enthusiastic, who can resist him?]

Xue Chen: [I am one of such friends.]

System: [……]
