"Master Shangguan, what a coincidence." Gongsun Yao kept a polite distance, and the weakness and exhaustion in his eyes were simply a perfect meal for a man, making people want to take her into his arms and take good care of her.
Fan.
There is no doubt that Gongsun Yao's reserve, which is both welcoming and refusing, is a fatal temptation for a young man like Shangguan Beicang who has never seen the world.
"Well, what a coincidence... Mrs. Lu."
Shangguan Beicang tried his best to appear calm, but his hands nowhere to be placed and his erratic eyes confirmed the constant turmoil in his heart.
The contempt in Gongsun Yao's eyes flashed away, but his face showed a kind of childish eagerness, but he had to suppress the curiosity based on etiquette.
She is like a flower in a greenhouse, with fantasies and expectations for the world in her eyes. The purity of this girl shown almost makes Shangguan Beicang unable to extricate himself.
Soon, he was half bragging and half showing off his story. This feeling of talking in front of others made him feel very good.
Especially, the person listening to his story is someone he...well, cares about very much.
Therefore, Gongsun Yao easily found out the details of Shangguan's family without much effort.
It was not much different from what she had originally expected. Most of the rumors in the world were true. The Shangguan family had indeed suffered a loss from the conflicts with the Qingcheng Sect, the Xuantian Sect, and the Jinyiwei.
But it seems that the person who suffered the loss from beginning to end was just Wen Chenyang, and the Shangguan family's own three-acre land was stable and peaceful.
And when Gongsun Yao listened to the whole story and combined her intelligence with the information provided by Shangguan Beicang, she seemed to smell a lie.
The reputation of the Shangguan family in the world is average. Even because they are close to the imperial court, people in the world generally look down on them.
Evaluations of the Shangguan family are often that "businessmen seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and are the least trustworthy, and the same is true for Shangguan." Before today, Gongsun Yao also thought so.
However, although the world does not think highly of the Shangguan family, their evaluation of the head of the family, Shangguan Shaoqin, is quite good. One of the reasons is that his acting style is in line with the Jianghu people's understanding of the word chivalry.
Especially in order to save his friends, Shangguan Shaoqin entered the capital alone, opened up the joints of Jinyiwei, and finally achieved this seemingly impossible achievement - to rescue people from imperial prison.
Although the people Shangguan Shaoqin saved and the methods he used were not upright, his deeds of loyalty were unanimously praised by people in the world.
Even though some people had suspected that Shangguan Shaoqin might have other motives for doing this, but as he treated Wen Chenyang like an honored guest over the years, and even his wife had bad words with this literary hero many times,
He turned a blind eye.
This grandeur, coupled with the "love at first sight" Shangguan Shaoqin once showed for Le Zhili, made people in the world recognize his spirit and ambition.
But Gongsun Yao didn't think so. The reason was that, as a person who did not find happiness in marriage, but was a good wife and mother in the eyes of outsiders, she keenly discovered the possible irrationality in Shangguan Shaoqin.
.
The world's understanding of him is mostly based on Wen Chenyang and Le Zhili. The former has been greatly favored by him and has been treated sincerely for several years without changing his mind. The latter is his wife who respects him as a guest.
They loved each other so much that they never blushed.
But if these two people are lies created by Shangguan Shaoqin, then everything seems very interesting. Gongsun Yao doesn't believe in the so-called righteousness, and she doesn't believe in love at first sight.
In order to steal the power of the Gongsun family into her own hands, Gongsun Yao could not only pretend to be a perfect wife and take care of her seriously ill husband in bed during the day, but also be able to live in a world of immorality and immorality after nightfall.
Dance.
In the face of interests, there is nothing that cannot be given up. Gongsun Yao saw the flaw in Shangguan Shaoqin's mask of benevolence and righteousness. This will be her best opportunity.
Because this directly determines whether she and the Shangguan family will fight each other on the battlefield once the matter is exposed, or discuss the division of interests at the negotiation table.
After extracting all the information he could from Shangguan Beicang, Gongsun Yao completely lost interest in him.
Although Gongsun Yao behaved as usual on the surface, Shangguan Beicang seemed to be able to feel a slight change, and some unpredictable changes happened in places that he could not see.
After bidding farewell to Shangguan Beicang who was reluctant to leave, Gongsun Yao immediately found his right-hand man Gongsun Yi.
"You are in charge of Wen Chenyang's medicine, right? I want you to do something in it." Gongsun Yao said bluntly.
Gongsun Yi felt pain in his heart after hearing this, but at the same time he also understood deeply that it was impossible for him to persuade Gongsun Yao, and as a sinner himself, he had no position to persuade the other party.
"Please, the eldest lady gives orders." Gongsun Yi lowered his head deeply, hiding his pain and cowardice.
Gongsun Yao told the other party her plan. To put it simply, she needed a master like Wen Chenyang as the material for the Yin and Yang dual cultivation method.
Of course, Gongsun Yao's first step is to ask Gongsun Yi to cure the opponent's injury, but it cannot be completely cured, otherwise Wen Chenyang in his heyday will not be easy for them to handle.
Secondly, Gongsun Yao also had his own understanding of the rumors that the Shangguan family was so complicated that it could become the laughing stock of the world. The so-called rumors are not without reason. There must be something between Wen Chenyang and Le Zhili.
Therefore, Gongsun Yao planned to take advantage of it. For her, the dual cultivation method provided by the foreign monks was the fastest way for her to improve her skills. All she needed was someone who could dual cultivate. As for who she could dual cultivate with, she didn't care.
of.
So, under Gongsun Yao's order, Gongsun Yilai personally made small moves, and Wen Chenyang's injuries recovered quickly in just half a month.
Soon, Wen Chenyang's internal strength returned to its original state, but he was still unable to use martial arts easily due to his severe injuries, and his whole body always felt light and weak.
Perhaps because the Gongsun family was famous and he had indeed recovered all his internal strength, Wen Chenyang didn't have much doubt about it.
Until that night, Wen Chenyang fell into a deep sleep after taking the medicine. In the middle of the night, his groggy head faintly woke up. Under the cold moonlight, he could vaguely see a beautiful figure approaching him.
Wen Chenyang tried his best to open his eyes. When he saw the figure clearly, his whole body went stiff. The disheveled woman in front of him turned out to be his adopted sister Le Zhili.
There seemed to be a foreign object stuck in his throat, and he couldn't speak for a long time. When "Le Zhili"'s arms hugged his body, all his words seemed so pale. They were originally obsessions in his heart, but what happened next
Things also fell into place.
The next day, Wen Chenyang woke up from the bed, sweating profusely. He thought it was all just a dream, until he suddenly saw Le Zhili sleeping next to him, and his head immediately went blank.
