Chapter 240 Gong Yuanzheng 27
The elders simply ignored Shangguan Qian's presence, preferring to remain out of sight, as she really liked to stir up trouble to assert her existence. Fortunately, she's gone now.
Elder Hua: "Why did Miss Song think of stepping forward to expose Steward Jia's conspiracy?"
Qingyue had a good impression of Elder Hua, at least she didn't seem to have any bias towards him, and bowed to him again.
“Young Master Zheng just defended me, and I naturally cannot let Young Master Zheng down.”
"In addition, Steward Jia sounded very guilty. I don't know why Young Master Yu was so sure of what Steward Jia said. With just a casual question, Steward Jia told Young Master Yu everything."
"To be frank, this Steward Jia is quite old, yet he has absolutely no affection for Zheng Gong. No matter what, Steward Jia, being so old, has watched Young Master Zheng grow up, yet he betrayed Young Master Zheng without hesitation. Clearly, this is a trap."
To be able to hold a position of manager in the palace, one cannot be a capable person found outside in a short period of time. It is obvious that he has been doing this for decades, otherwise how could an outsider become the manager of the palace master's pharmacy?
Qingyue added, "Young Master Yu has doubts about Young Master Zheng, and I also have doubts about Young Master Yu."
Upon hearing this, Jin Fan's mind went blank. He felt that something was wrong. Perhaps it was because Steward Jia had so blatantly burned the herbs to cover up the crime, and it was just that he and Miss Gong Zishang had discovered it.
The scheme must have started from there; they gradually fell into the trap.
Coupled with his previous eagerness to know the truth, he initially suspected the Qizheng Palace and the Jiao Palace. He was led astray by this preconceived notion, and one step led to another.
Gong Ziyu, however, did not think so. He only felt that Steward Jia could not stand Gong Yuanzheng's behavior and had a change of heart, so he directly expressed his opinion to him.
Elder Xue: "What do you mean by that?"
Gong Yuanzheng's gaze remained fixed on Song Yueqing. She firmly believed in his innocence and even stepped forward to defend him.
She's clearly not very brave, but he scared her so much that she cried and even fainted.
He was surprised that she would do this for him, and felt a surge of joy.
Qingyue glanced at Gong Ziyu and Steward Jia.
"First, Young Master Yu caught Steward Jia saying that Young Master Zheng had changed the prescription, which led to the deaths of the former wielder and the young master."
"Under such conditions, one would only take a gamble if it were in one's own interest. If it was really done by Young Master Zheng, why would Young Master Yu be the one to benefit?"
“Young Master Jiao was not at the palace gate at the time. Even if Young Master Zheng wanted his brother to be the Blade Master, he wouldn’t have chosen this time period.”
She didn't know what the rules were for becoming a Blade Master. Since both Gong Yuanzheng and Gong Ziyu were there, she chose the less capable Gong Ziyu.
It is speculated that Gong Yuanzheng did not meet one of the conditions, so Gong Ziyu was chosen instead.
Even if one of the three elders favors Young Master Yu, the other two are reasonable.
Under these circumstances, Gong Ziyu still rose to power, and the three elders could only clean up his messes. Unfortunately, he was a terrible teammate...
The three elders agreed with her analysis and nodded, signaling her to continue.
Qingyue held up two fingers.
"Secondly, if Young Master Zheng really ordered Steward Jia to do the work, and even killed Zhi Ren and the young master, why wouldn't he silence Steward Jia after the matter was done, and instead let Young Master Yu seize this handle?"
"Young Master Yu suspects that Young Master Zheng has ulterior motives. Can I also suspect him? Because Gong Ziyu has been idle for many years and wants to prove himself, but everyone is superior to him. So he thought of a way to kill him and then frame Jiao Gong and Zheng Gong!"
"After all, both the Horn Palace and the Zheng Palace are being talked about behind their backs and have received a lot of criticism, while only the Feather Palace has received a lot of pity."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Gong Ziyu spoke up anxiously.
"You bullshit!"
Gong Yuanzheng blocked Gong Ziyu from spitting at Song Yueqing.
“I think what my wife said makes perfect sense.”
The three elders almost actually believed Song Yueqing's words, and they did have a slight doubt about Gong Ziyu in their hearts. It's not impossible!
Thinking of Gong Ziyu's kindness, they suppressed their thoughts to the lowest possible level, and almost succumbed to it.
Gong Shangjiao only felt that Song Yueqing was a bit scary. She was good at broadening people's thinking. If she really didn't have any other identity, she would be a great help to the expedition.
But if she has other identities, they might suffer a great loss at her hands.
Qingyue gave Gong Ziyu a forced smile from behind Gong Yuanzheng.
"Whether it's nonsense or not, who knows?" After a pause, Qingyue added, "To be frank..."
Elder Hua: "Go ahead and speak."
Qingyue: "I don't know what the rules of the palace are. Why would they choose Young Master Yu as the Blade Master? Is it also part of his scheme that the Blade Master is so easily fooled?"
"Among all the palace masters present, including Miss Gong Zishang whom I have never met, but I have heard rumors about her, she does have a talent for weapon making."
"As for Young Master Yu, apart from the rumors about his romantic affairs, I have never heard of any of his abilities."
"He is the only person among our time who is the easiest to control and manipulate."
The three elders exchanged glances.
"this..."
What she said makes so much sense!!
Fortunately, she belonged to Gong Yuanzheng. With such a brilliant mind gone, they would be sighing all the time.
Only Elder Yue thought differently. He wondered why Gong Ziyu didn't choose Song Yueqing as his wife, but instead chose Ye Zihan, who had a very low profile.
Even the assassin Shangguan Qian spoke up, though her words were all directed at Song Yueqing.
Gong Yuanzheng was framed, and the wife he chose stood up for him. Gong Ziyu was rebuked by the wife, while his bride remained unknown.
Hey!
Sorrow!
Gong Ziyu never expected that he would be so inferior in front of this bride who had just entered the palace.
Is he really that bad?
Jin Fan felt exhausted looking at Gong Ziyu. He also wanted Gong Ziyu to prove himself, but he had no ambition, or rather, he didn't like those things, so he didn't do them.
Because he was born prematurely, Gong Ziyu was weak, and the elders in the Gong family were willing to dote on him, after all, he had a role model, Gong Huanyu, above him.
Gong Ziyu has no achievements, but that's because someone is there to back him up.
It is precisely because of these points that Gong Ziyu is not serious about anything and feels impatient with everything he does.
This results in a significant gap between them and others.
Even the usually unassuming Miss Gong Zishang is quite talented in weapon manufacturing, but Gong Ziyu is a complete failure and has become the leader, which puts immense pressure on him.
Over the years, he must have sighed countless times, feeling that he would die young...
Gong Yuanzheng looked at Qingyue with increasingly starry eyes; his bride was so strong!
Her health wasn't great, but her verbal skills were incredibly impressive. Look, she silenced everyone.
Even her older brother remained silent, lost in thought.
