Chapter 297 Does My Mother Love Me?
"Brother is right." Zhang Xueming tapped the table with his fingers. "There is no free lunch in the world. We just need to know about the things that cannot be changed, and we don't need to spend too much energy on them."
"I have some ideas about the miasma." She explained the principle of the formation of miasma, and then said: "There is no rule in the palace family rules that prohibits cutting down trees. I think the trees surrounding the mountain in front of the palace have nothing to do with the formation."
"Cutting down a large number of trees will reduce the concealment of the palace gate." Gong Huanyu reminded.
"Just cut off some of the overly dense ones so that the wind can blow through smoothly and disperse the miasma." Zhang Xueming said, "I don't know which ones to remove and which ones to keep. We have to let professionals do it."
"Professionals?" Gong Huanyu frowned.
"Gardeners and servants in charge of taking care of flowers and plants in each palace should be able to use it."
Gong Shangjiao took the opportunity to say, "Brother Huanyu is worried, how about taking over this matter yourself? It is better to make meritorious contributions instead of wasting time in a dungeon."
Once he is locked up, he will be restless and will cause trouble sooner or later. It is not right to execute him, so it is better to change the name and let Gong Huanyu come out to do something, so as to avoid making a mess and asking him to clean it up.
Gong Huanyu was surprised: "Aren't you afraid?"
Gong Shangjiao curled his lips and said, "To be honest, I wish someone would take over now."
Gong Huanyu was puzzled: "Don't you always put the palace gate first?"
"I am the same now." Gong Shangjiao said calmly, "I just found that I can't serve the public wholeheartedly. Of course, I should be prepared to step down and let others take over."
"Why can't you do it?" Gong Huanyu asked.
Gong Shangjiao looked at the two little ones who were smiling sweetly at him, and his heart softened.
He smiled at Gong Huanyu calmly: "Maybe it's because I'm just a mortal, it's normal to have selfish desires."
Gong Huanyu laughed dumbly: "I am not as good as you."
Not as good as you in martial arts, not as knowledgeable as you, not as broad-minded as you.
Gong Ziyu watched them pick up the teacups and clink them together. It seemed as if all the past grudges were resolved after just a few words. She was very surprised, but she could only watch silently and did not dare to speak.
Seeing that he was no longer the annoying person who took advantage of his drunkenness to talk nonsense in front of Yugong, Gong Zishang felt a little soft-hearted and pushed the snack box towards him: "Eat something, don't stand there like an idiot."
Gong Ziyu's eyes lit up, but she turned her head to talk to Zhang Xueming after saying this, and her expression dimmed again. She took a piece of yam cake with jujube paste. The tall and strong cow managed to perform the taste of a little pitiful.
Zhang Xueming waited for a while but they didn't talk, so he didn't want to keep them company: "Everyone, if you have nothing else..."
"I know you have a plan to eliminate Wu Feng." Gong Huanyu said quickly, "I won't ask for details, just one thing, don't forget to call me when you leave."
Zhang Xueming looked at Gong Shangjiao and said nothing.
Gong Shangjiao hesitated for a while, and finally nodded: "Then Brother Huanyu should just focus on your work and practice well."
Gong Huanyu felt relieved and said with a smile, "Of course."
Gong Zishang suddenly felt something was wrong: "No, if you all leave, who will be in charge of the palace gate?"
Gong Huanyu looked at the listless Gong Ziyu, shook his head, then followed Gong Shangjiao and Gong Yuanzheng's gaze to look at Gong Zishang.
Even though the idea of favoring boys over girls is deeply rooted, he can only accept reality when there is no one available.
Gong Huanyu looked at this crazy sister critically several times. Thinking that Jin Fan had been sent back to the back mountain, Gong Zishang could not chase after her anymore. Moreover, she was quite capable to get a person like Zhang Xueming to fight for her interests.
The boundless flowing fire represents his ambition. Now that his ambition has failed, the most important thing for him now is revenge, and nothing else can become an obstacle for him.
"Since you can take charge of the Shang Palace, it won't be a problem for you to take charge of the palace gate temporarily. I have to work during the day, and you can study with Shang Jiao. I will give you extra lessons at night."
Gong Huanyu made the final decision, Gong Shangjiao nodded with a smile in agreement, Gong Ziyu was lost in thought, Gong Yuanzheng and Zhang Xueming gave Gong Zishang encouraging looks.
Gong Zishang grabbed his ears and shouted, "God wants to kill me!", then pounced on Zhang Xueming.
Gong Yuanzheng was quick to press his hand on her face and pushed her away: "Congratulations, big sister, for taking charge of the family. When we return triumphantly, we will definitely bring you a gift."
The matter was settled and it was time to leave, but Gong Ziyu lingered and refused to leave.
Gong Zishang was worried about the fact that he would have to work hard from tomorrow, so he said unhappily, "If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you being so shy?"
Gong Ziyu glanced at her sadly.
Gong Zishang shuddered and pouted, "Ah, I can't stand you~ I'm too sleepy, I'm leaving first."
She turned around, picked up some snacks, and followed the guards who were escorting her. Gong Liushang was imprisoned in the dungeon, and the Shang Palace was leaderless, so she had to go back to calm the situation.
Gong Huanyu also said: "I have to go back to the dungeon. Bye."
He turned and walked out, followed by the Huang Yu servant who was escorting him, who also left with a bag of snacks.
Gong Shangjiao looked at his bearish look and guessed that he was not talking about serious matters, so he did not dare to say it in front of him, and said, "I will go take a shower and change clothes first, and come back for a midnight snack later."
After he left, Gong Ziyu stammered, "I just want to ask... Miss Zhao, do you think my mother loves me?"
When Gong Yuanzheng heard that he was indeed worried about this again, he could not help but roll his eyes. Seeing that Zhang Xueming had vomited blood again, he busied himself taking care of him and suppressed the urge to mock Gong Ziyu.
Zhang Xueming was helpless with this ignorant young man, but seeing that he had made Shangguan Qian speechless today, he showed him some patience: "Young Master Yu is not the unlearned playboy as the rumors say. You are practicing medicine in private, right?"
Gong Ziyu's eyes widened in shock: "How did you know?"
"Last night in front of the dungeon, I noticed that when I mentioned to Ayuan that your fox fur pendant was stained with the scent of phoenix vine, Master Yu immediately reacted."
Gong Ziyu glanced at Gong Yuanzheng, who looked surprised, and nodded, "I don't want to be called unlearned all the time..."
The fact that Zhang Xueming could infer that he was studying medicine from such subtle details made Gong Ziyu more confident in her.
Zhang Xueming smiled and said, "If Master Yu had read the part about pregnancy and childbirth in the medical books, he wouldn't have such doubts."
Gong Ziyu lowered her head in embarrassment: "I haven't seen that place yet."
"If a woman really doesn't want the baby in her belly, no matter how many skilled doctors there are, they can't save the fetus." Zhang Xueming said, "Mrs. Lan must have won the gold medal when choosing a marriage partner, so your father saw her at first sight, which shows that she was in good health. The premature birth later must have been caused by pre-pregnancy depression. But your safe birth must have been the result of her trying her best to cooperate with the doctors."
Gong Ziyu was stunned after hearing this, tears welling up in her eyes: "Is it really like this? She didn't stop wanting me..."
"Mr. Yu should read the medical books about depression caused by poor emotions." Zhang Xueming gently stroked Gong Yuanzheng's back. It was not only Gong Ziyu who was touched by these words, but he was also.
"Most patients with severe depression symptoms cannot endure hopeless life for too long and commit suicide. But Mrs. Lan persisted for a full ten years and died of illness."
Zhang Xueming spoke softly.
"Master Yu may think that when you were a child, Madam Lan didn't get close to you, which was a sign of not loving you. But think about it, if you found out that the enemy of the palace was lurking around you, and your husband chose to protect her and let your children get close to her...
Do you still dare to indulge yourself and love that child? Aren't you afraid that after you are forced to death by them, the child will be hurt because of the estrangement between you and them?"
She sighed and finally said, "Restraining herself from getting close to him and teaching him how to protect himself is the best gift that a woman with a kind heart but no power to resist fate can give to him."
[I've told you so many times, if you get hurt, remember to go to the hospital immediately. ]
[Tears represent weakness, and weak people will be bullied. When you want to cry in the future, put on a mask so that no one will see you.]
Gong Ziyu suddenly covered her face and cried bitterly.
For the first time, Gong Yuanzheng did not laugh at him. He just poured him a cup of hot tea and took Zhang Xueming out of the tea room.
