Chapter 165: "Saving" Zheng Zhaozhao
Chapter 165: "Saving" Zheng Zhaozhao
Almost as soon as Gong Shangjiao's voice fell, a large black shadow suddenly appeared in the air not far in front of him.
Xiao Fang blushed as the jade servant Jin Ting drew his sword and blocked Gong Shangjiao behind him, but Gong Shangjiao walked out from behind him: "No need, it's Brother Yuanzheng and Zheng Zhaozhao."
He could clearly feel the creepy feeling of being watched that had appeared in the hospital's injury ward appearing again, and it was sweeping over him.
As if to confirm Gong Shangjiao's words, the huge black shadow landed lightly less than two meters away from him, and two young and handsome faces were exposed under the light.
The warm yellow light shone on the faces of Zhang Xueming and Gong Yuanzheng, and their complexions were extremely pale.
The look of panic had not yet completely faded, but the moment they saw him, the eyes of both of them seemed to be injected with light and brightened visibly.
Gong Shangjiao pursed his lips, not understanding why Zhang Xueming and Gong Yuanzheng would suddenly run to the Elders' Council and make a scene at this time.
The red light on the tower came on, and what they should have done was to stay in the Corner Palace and not go out.
He was just discussing important matters with the three elders in the meeting room, and the atmosphere was serious and solemn. Unexpectedly, he suddenly heard the voices of these two little guys coming from outside the room. They also used their internal strength, not only shouting his name, but also saying some inexplicable words, which made him embarrassed and ashamed.
But when he actually saw them, he clearly realized that they had rushed here because they were afraid that something might happen to him, and they even went so far as to cause a scene in the Elders' Council...
Gong Shangjiao's heart suddenly softened.
He looked at them silently, watching their panic fade away and their joy become unconcealable as the handsome boy and the stunning girl smiled at him at the same time.
"elder brother!"
"Gong Er...Brother!"
"Hmm." Gong Shangjiao responded muffledly and lowered his eyelids. There seemed to be light shattered in his deep pupils, flickering.
But, no matter how soft-hearted you are, you can't give anyone a good face.
"What are you shouting outside? I'm afraid the whole palace can hear it."
Gong Yuanzheng elbowed Jin Ting away and moved closer to Gong Shangjiao. Facing Gong Shangjiao's cold face, he smiled with his teeth bared: "We thought something happened to you... Brother, I'm glad you're okay."
The Huang Yu servants who had chased after them stopped not far away, with their swords still in their sheaths, staring at Zhang Xueming and Gong Yuanzheng with burning eyes.
One man stepped out from the crowd, turned the knife in his hand, pointed the tip of the knife at the ground, and said with a fist: "Hold the knife, the identities of these two people are unknown..."
"Brother, Zhao Zhao and I explained our identities as soon as we entered the Elders' Council, and showed them the blade token you gave us." Gong Yuanzheng crossed his arms and raised his chin, interrupting the man rudely. He was telling the truth, but he had learned from Zhao Zhao and used the Spring and Autumn style of writing to a small extent, and he had no guilty conscience.
Gong Shangjiao glanced at Gong Yuanzheng, knowing that things were definitely not as simple as he said. But his eyes passed over Zhang Xueming, who was pale and breathing rapidly, and obviously had not recovered yet, and fell on the group of Huang Yu servants who did not put away their knives and retreated after seeing him, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
Gong Shangjiao narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice: "This is the Palace Master of Zheng Palace and the future Madam Zheng Palace, my brother and sister. I guarantee them as a sword bearer - do you understand their identities clearly enough?"
The man was too embarrassed to say anything more. He sheathed his sword, bowed again, and returned to the guard team.
The Huang Yu servants then sheathed their swords together, but did not leave. They just dispersed and guarded around the conference hall, their eyes still constantly scanning Gong Yuanzheng and Zhang Xueming.
Gong Yuanzheng was not afraid of anyone because he had his brother by his side. He curled the corners of his mouth and glared at everyone with a smug look on his face.
Zhang Xueming, who was standing on the other side of Gong Shangjiao, was facing the murderous gazes of a group of Huang Yu servants. He took out a handkerchief and politely wiped the sweat that had suddenly appeared on his forehead, face and neck.
With her rapid breathing, her face was pale to the point of being bloodless, and the blood on her lips was gone. Even her voice of complaint was weak and listless: "Brother, why did you light a red light when nothing happened? It's so scary."
Gong Yuanzheng felt something was wrong with the voice, so he looked over and his joy immediately disappeared. He hurried over to support Zhang Xueming: "Zhao Zhao!"
Gong Shangjiao saw that Zhang Xueming's hand holding the handkerchief couldn't stop trembling slightly. Thinking that it wasn't long since she was exhausted and carried back to Jiaogong by Gong Yuanzheng, his expression changed, "Go in first."
He glanced at the yellow jade servants who refused to leave without the elders' orders, snorted coldly, turned around, and took the two of them in.
So Elder Xue and Elder Hua, who were just about to come out to see what was going on, saw Zhang Xueming being half-supported and half-carried in by Gong Yuanzheng, looking pale and dying. They were so frightened that their hair almost stood up.
"Lao Yue, come and see Xiao Zhao Zhao!" Elder Hua habitually called his old friend.
Elder Xue also hurriedly echoed: "Elder Yue, come quickly, Zhao Zhao is probably seriously injured!"
Elder Yue covered his chest and stood up tremblingly with the help of a low table: "How can we see patients here? Go to the west side hall." It's really a rainy day when it rains. I hope the little girl is okay, otherwise Zheng Palace will have another crazy palace mistress... It's a headache.
"Oh, yes, yes, let's go to the West Side Hall!" Elder Hua turned around and remembered that Elder Yue was also injured. He hurried over and took Elder Yue's left hand around his neck and put it on his shoulder: "Old Xue, come quickly, Old Yue is injured and can't walk, let's carry him over!"
Gong Yuanzheng simply picked up Zhang Xueming and carried him horizontally, then followed Gong Shangjiao and the three elders to the west hall.
During this time, he also felt Zhang Xueming's pulse. Not surprisingly, he was still weak, a little more serious than before, but his life was not in danger. He just had to rest well and take supplements in the next few days, and he couldn't use his internal energy or do anything that hurt his mind.
Looking at the overly quiet girl in his arms, Gong Yuanzheng no longer thought she was cute. He still preferred her when she was full of energy, strong, domineering and aggressive.
If his lightness ability was better and his internal strength was a little more...wouldn't it make her less tired?
The future Grand Master of Poison made a painful decision at this moment, and from then on he would embark on the road to becoming the best runner in the world, never to return.
……
The east side hall is the office, and the west side hall is where the three elders rest and entertain themselves after work. It is fully equipped.
Gong Yuanzheng put Zhang Xueming on a soft couch, looked around, and went to get the kettle to boil water in a familiar manner. He also asked Elder Xue politely: "Elder Xue, do you have rock honey? I want to make a bowl of sugar water for Zhao Zhao to drink."
"Ah, yes, yes." Elder Xue hurriedly took out some rock honey from the cabinet and gave it to him. Seeing him busy, she was worried: His beloved was still alive or dead, but this child was so calm? Maybe he had gone crazy...
