Hearing this, the man's gentle face suddenly changed. He suddenly stepped forward and sat side by side with Shu Yao, unable to conceal his doubts:
"My sister, third brother doesn't have to ask about anything else, but I don't want you to hide this matter from third brother. Do you know how worried and guilty you are about sneaking into Netherworld Mansion?"
"Do you think that if you don't tell Third Brother, Third Brother won't know about it? Did you agree to some excessive conditions for him when you came back unscathed?"
Gong Yun'ao's eyes were sharp and insightful. There was no expression in those eyes, but she clearly felt an invisible pressure, which made her feel slightly nervous involuntarily.
"Third brother, I know you are worried about me, but this time, you really think too much. Look, didn't I appear in front of you properly? Moreover, I was not injured."
In fact, she had been very careful to stay away from him, but she didn't expect to be tricked by him.
Although Gong Yun'ao frowned slightly, his expression was gentle and not impetuous. However, he could not help but feel self-blame and worry in his heart:
"Sister Yao, I would rather die of poisoning than to put you in danger for me, to be used or even persecuted by him."
Shu Yao's bright starry eyes met his worried eyes, she softened her tone and said:
"Third brother, Bei Mingye came here for me. Since you were injured because of me, how could I turn a blind eye and pretend that nothing happened?"
Without waiting for his answer, Shu Yao said again: "Third brother, what would you do if I was poisoned?"
Gong Yun'ao's expression changed, and he looked at her steadily with his stern eyes, his eyebrows were sincere, and he said solemnly and firmly:
"Third brother will definitely find an antidote for you, and he will definitely kill the person who poisoned you."
Upon hearing this, Shu Yao smiled faintly, but Gong Yun'ao's eyes were full of worry.
"Sister Yao, when I woke up from the coma and learned that you were fully recovered, do you know how happy the third brother was? The third brother just wanted you to be safe and not hurt at all."
Shu Yao was so moved that her nose felt sore and her eyes were slightly red. She whispered softly: "Third brother, I'm sorry for making you worry. Your suspicion is right. Bei Mingye is the Lord of Nether Palace. I misunderstood you before.
It’s my little sister’s fault…”
After hearing this, Gong Yun Aojun's face was gloomy. Seeing that Shu Yao's heart was relaxed, he took the opportunity to coax him: "Now, can you tell third brother?"
Shu Yao lowered her eyebrows and thought for a moment, raised her clear eyes slightly, and said slowly: "The antidote was obtained by me in exchange for three things I promised Bei Mingye."
What?
Gong Yun proudly tightened his eyebrows, his face became increasingly gloomy, and his narrow eyes were covered with a layer of gloom and solemnity.
What's Bei Mingye's intention? What's his plan?
Damn it!
It was precisely because this man was good at conspiracy and plotting, and was able to set up traps at every step, that Shu Yao was captured by him. His astonishing foresight was truly frightening.
Thinking of this, Gong Yun'ao's heart tightened, and he felt deeply afraid, and even his voice became a little thicker when he spoke:
"My sister, promise Third Brother, no matter what he asks you to do, you must tell Third Brother in time. When facing someone with evil intentions, you don't have to perform the contract, and Third Brother will do it for you."
Sooner or later, he will completely eradicate the big devil Bei Mingye!
There seemed to be a glimmer of luster in Gong Yun'ao's deep eyes, which stayed firm but never dissipated, making people unable to bear to refuse, "Okay, third brother."
She responded softly and he smiled back.
By the Qingshui Lake, water candles, iris, gladiolus, and calla lilies were in full bloom, so beautiful that it was breathtaking. Shu Yao couldn't help but exclaimed: "Third brother, look, what beautiful flowers."
Gong Yun'ao looked towards the shore, and suddenly an idea occurred to him. Immediately, he slowly raised his right palm and flipped his fingers. A breeze blew by, and the clusters of flowers on the shore danced with the wind.
The colorful petals suddenly flew around under the urging of the internal force, and gathered little by little, condensing in mid-air, forming a huge "heart" shape.
Shu Yao couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's so beautiful!" The petals were flying, attracting passers-by to stop and watch.
Shu Yao raised her head, petals all over the sky were flying in front of her eyes. Waves of surprises came to Shu Yao's heart, and her eyebrows narrowed into two crescent moons.
Shu Yao's lotus pink dress looks very elegant and light, and it looks particularly elegant and refined against the backdrop of red petals.
After a while, the petals fell quietly, and they fluttered in the wind, flying all over the sky. Shu Yao couldn't help but stretched out her hands to catch the scattered petals.
Then, her pretty face came closer, her cherry blossom-like red lips blew gently, and all the petals in her hand blew off.
Shu Yao smiled brightly and couldn't help but flatter Gong Yun'ao, "Third brother's internal strength is getting more and more powerful, he can control it freely!"
Gong Yun'ao stood beside her, standing with his hands down. He slightly pursed his red lips, his eyes moved, and his right hand was quietly placed behind his back.
I saw the big hand hidden behind me quietly moving and waving, and suddenly, the boat suddenly started to rock.
"ah……"
Shu Yao's center of gravity was unsteady and she accidentally fell backwards. She was about to fall into the lake. At the critical moment, Gong Yun'ao took her into his arms.
With his arms full of warm and fragrant soft jade, Gong Yun'ao showed a satisfied smile, and his deep voice came from above his head, "Be careful! Sister Yao."
Shu Yao's white little hands lay on his chest, and the tight chest muscles were fitting into her soft palms. The muscles were bulging, and the blood was so strong that Shu Yao subconsciously grabbed his chest muscles.
Gong Yun's proud jade eyes flashed with lust. The woman in his arms lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling slightly. She felt a little embarrassed under his gaze.
A bright blush burned on her cheeks, and her eyes met. When Shu Yao saw his narrow gaze, she ran away instantly. She turned her back to hide the embarrassment in her heart, "Third brother, it's too late, I have to go back."
Gong Yun smiled proudly and curled the corners of his mouth, his brows glowing with joy, and said in a slow and sexy voice: "Okay, I'll give it to you."
Under the afterglow of the setting sun in the west, the two figures looked so harmonious and beautiful.
That day, after the rescued Yiye Guhong recovered from his injuries, Li Dan told Yiye Guhong exactly what Shu Yao asked him to pass on.
"Brother Hong, Shu Yao said, just relying on your own blind revenge will only lead to a situation of no return. A single tree cannot make a forest. You can only join a powerful party and share the same hatred. Why worry about not avenging the family feud?"
"She also said that only through the power of the imperial court can we seek justice for your Lijia Village."
Yiye Guhong stroked the wound, thought for a moment, and then asked: "What else did she say?"
Li Dan took a sip of tea and continued: "She said that only the Third Highness in the court can help you."
Yiye Guhong was confused: "Does she want me to seek refuge with His Highness the Third?"
Li Dan saw that he was doubtful and hurriedly analyzed: "That should be the meaning. We are weak and if we want to convict the Gu family in one fell swoop, we can only rely on the court. Miss Shu's words may not be wrong."
Yiye Guhong's eyes darkened, he lowered his eyes and said, "Yeah! I also know, maybe this is the best way."
Li Dan asked: "Then what should we do next?"
Yiye Guhong sat up from the bed, thought about it for a moment, and said: "Go to Shu Yao and ask her to recommend me. As long as I can redress the grievances of the Li family, I am willing to join His Highness Third Highness and serve him."
After hearing this, Li Dan hurriedly stood up and said, "Okay, I'll do it right away."
Only Yiye Guhong himself knew that there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart. Perhaps, only in this way could he have a chance to get close to Ling Hanjing.
Everything went smoothly, and Gong Yun'ao was overjoyed when he got the news. His beautiful sister would always think about him, help him plan, find talents for him, and then bring him to work for him.
When the guard Zimo saw his master holding Shu Yao's letter happily, he couldn't help but say:
"Master, Xiang Jun is so kind to you. She always thinks about you. In order to save you, she risked her life and death and sneaked into the Nether Palace to find medicine for you..."
"This time, when the master is employing people, he has introduced a master like Yiye Guhong to work for the master. I don't believe it if the Xiangjun doesn't have that intention for the master."
Gong Yun Ao heard this and was very pleased with himself. In order not to be seen through by Zi Mo, he tried hard to suppress the excitement in his eyes and asked hopefully: "Do you also think that Sister Yao likes me?"
"Of course, the master is so outstanding, how can any woman refuse him?" Zimo snickered in his heart. Obviously, he had already seen the excitement in Gong Yun'ao's eyes.
When Gong Yun'ao heard this, he glanced coldly and said disdainfully: "I can't control other women and I don't want to care about them. I just want my sister Yao and I can't refuse."
In fact, he was already in full bloom, and his handsome and handsome face was even more radiant.
So arrogant!
Zimo couldn't hide his smile and asked without understanding: "If your highness likes the country king, why don't you ask the emperor to grant a marriage?"
"Marriage?" Gong Yun'ao listened and was silent for a while. Then, a light and ethereal voice came faintly, as if he was talking to himself: "I don't want to force her, everything should be done naturally.
good."
Although Gong Yun'ao said this, in fact, he knew better than anyone else that with Shu Yao's strong and independent character, if he forced her with an imperial edict, it would be inevitable for the two of them to part ways from now on, and they might even resent him. He couldn't risk it.
This risk.
At this time, Zimo suddenly thought that tomorrow was the folk Flower Festival, so why not invite the country gentleman to come together, which would be a great way to cultivate feelings.
Zimo felt that he was so worried that he started to act like a matchmaker, "Your Highness, tomorrow is the annual Flower Festival. Your Highness can invite Xiangjun to go with you and take this opportunity to cultivate your relationship."
When Gong Yun'ao heard this, a look of joy flashed across his brows, "Okay, you can help me deliver the letter."
Zimo excitedly raised his hands and said, "Yes, Your Highness."
When flowers are in full bloom, there is a festival where all flowers can celebrate their birthdays on this day. This festival is called the Flower Festival, and it is also a very important traditional folk festival.
The birthday of hundreds of flowers is a good time, and the spring is not yet half of the flower dynasty. Thousands of reds and purples are covered with brocade, and they are decorated with labor to congratulate the flower god.
The folk "Twelve Flower Gods" are formed by naming flowers according to the twelve months of each year according to the natural laws of flower information.
In order to have fun and avoid suspicion, Shu Yao invited Feng Chen, Ling Hanjing, Yun Xiang and others to come and play together.
Zimo's heart twitched, did this country gentleman really not understand or did he pretend to not understand? With so many people here, how could the master have a chance to be alone!
