Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

"Is this really the case?" Gong Hongyu stared at Gong Liushang with a gloomy expression. His weather-beaten face was expressionless, like a stiff slab of stone.

Gong Liushang looked at the old man in front of him with wrinkles all over his face, which was as wrinkled as a chrysanthemum, and his heart was filled with fear and grievance.

When he saw those sharp eagle-like eyes fixed on him, tears instantly burst out, "Wuwuwu..." At first it was just a slight sob, but before long, it turned into a heart-wrenching howl like a flood that broke through a dam.

Since this was the Blade Hall, no one dared to step forward to comfort or coax him, so Gong Liushang became more and more unscrupulous and simply lay on the ground and started rolling around.

"You all bully me! You are all bad guys! My mother said that I will become the Blade Wielder in the future. When I am in power, I will kill all of you!" Gong Liushang cried and yelled hysterically, completely ignoring the reactions of the people around him.

As soon as he said this, not only were the wet nurses and maids beside him frightened to the point of turning pale, they all fell to their knees, trembling like leaves in the wind; even Gong Ziyu, who had been standing by and watching coldly, could not help but be greatly shocked.

Gong Ziyu thought to himself: This Shang Gong's youngest son is simply a devil! Compared to me, he is even worse! With your IQ, you still dream of becoming a blade bearer? I'm afraid you are not even qualified to be a dandy. Why do you have to provoke the famous little poison kid in the palace? Even if you don't know what he looks like, have you never heard of his name?

"How dare you! Who told you to speak so arrogantly!" Elder Hua has always attached great importance to rules. When he heard Gong Liushang say such words, his heart instantly burned with anger.

At this moment, there was a loud bang, and the tightly closed door of the Sword Holding Hall was suddenly knocked open. A figure rushed into the hall like a gust of wind. Everyone looked closely and found that it was a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes and covered with jewels. She looked like a moving human jewelry rack. She was anxious and shouted: "My dear! Who is the blind guy who dared to make you so unhappy! Tell your mother quickly, and your mother and your father will definitely seek justice for you!"

As soon as the woman rushed into the hall, she ran straight to Gong Liushang, who was rolling on the ground, and hugged him tightly in her arms, soothing him softly and comforting him with kind words, caring for him as if he were her own precious baby.

"Madam Ya, this is the Blade Palace, not your Shang Palace's small piece of land where you can do whatever you want!" Seeing this woman rushing around without any manners, Elder Hua became more and more angry and almost burst out.

However, Madam Ya was not moved at all. Instead, she straightened her chest and retorted without showing any weakness: "Hmph! My son is being bullied. As a mother, can't I even feel a little bit of pain?" In this way, Madam Ya and Elder Hua confronted each other tit for tat and neither of them gave in.

Suddenly, Madam Ya seemed to have thought of something. She turned her head sharply and stared at Gong Zishang who was standing quietly on the other side with a sharp gaze. She shouted angrily, "You damned girl, are you bullying your brother again by taking advantage of your power?"

"How dare you!" A roar resounded throughout the Blade Wielding Hall, like a thunderclap, shaking everyone present. Gong Hongyu looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, which was as noisy as a vegetable market, with an angry face. The anger in his heart finally erupted like a volcano, and he could no longer suppress it.

Gong Yuanzheng narrowed his eyes, and his gaze shot straight at Madam Ya like a sharp arrow. He stared closely at the hairpins on Madam Ya's head and the fabric of the dress she was wearing, with a hint of doubt and anger in his eyes.

After a moment, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a sneer: "Humph, why do the things you are wearing and wearing on your head look so familiar to me?"

Hearing this, Madam Ya was stunned at first, but then she reacted, put her hands on her hips, and retorted without showing any weakness: "Hey, where did you come from, you pretty boy? How could an unknown person like you ever see the things I wear?" Obviously, Madam Ya didn't know Gong Yuanzheng at all. She was used to showing off in her own Shang Palace on weekdays, so she didn't take this strange man who suddenly appeared seriously.

However, Gong Yuanzheng was not intimidated by Madam Ya's aura. He stepped forward, bowed to Master Zhiren and said, "Master Zhiren, Yuanzheng dares to ask you to order a thorough investigation of Miss Shanggong's private vault."

When this was said, not only Mrs. Ya was shocked, but also Gong Hongyu and others were shocked. He had never expected that Gong Yuanzheng would make such an unexpected request.

"Yuanzheng, do you have any misunderstanding? Zishang has always been well-behaved and sensible, how could she do such a thing?" Gong Hongyu frowned, looking worried. In his opinion, Gong Yuanzheng must have misunderstood, otherwise he would never ask to check Gong Zishang's private vault for no reason.

"Master Zhiren, please forgive me for disturbing you. In fact, I had originally planned to find a suitable time to discuss this matter with you in private, but now the situation has changed, and those items have been stolen, so I have no choice but to report it to you in person." Gong Yuanzheng opened his red lips slightly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, outlining an arc that seemed to be a smile.

He took a breath and continued, "Thanks to my brother and the elders of Tiandu City for their care and love, the private storehouse of Zheng Palace has already been piled high with silk, satin, gold, silver, jade, exotic flowers and plants and other rare items. The number of these treasures is so large that the space of Zheng Palace has even become a little cramped.

At first, I had secretly thought about whether the scale of Zheng Palace could be expanded. However, since this matter has not been officially reported to you, the extra items can only be temporarily stored in my brother's Jiao Palace and sister Zi Shang's Shang Palace. But who would have thought..." Speaking of this, Gong Yuanzheng paused for a moment, his eyes fell on the gorgeous dress on Madam Ya.

His eyes lit up, and he pointed at Madam Ya and said, "But just now, I accidentally noticed that the fabric of the dress Madam Ya was wearing was quite special. After careful observation, I found that the fabric was woven from a unique silk thread spit out by an extremely rare spider demon in the wilderness, and its name is 'Yuejian'.

As far as I know, this spider monster is not like other monsters that improve their own cultivation by hunting or devouring other creatures. Instead, they can complete their cultivation simply by absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon.

Because of this, the spider silk spit out by these spider monsters can be said to be impervious to swords and guns, water and fire; and when the sun shines on the spider silk, it will scatter the full moonlight, like a dream, beautiful and beyond words. It is because of this wonderful phenomenon that people have given it such a beautiful and poetic name as "Moon Viewing".

However, since this cloth woven from Tsukimi spider silk is extremely rare, even I only have seven or eight pieces with me.

Therefore, I naturally cherished such precious cloth and did not dare to use it easily. I only gave one piece to each of the Elders' Council, Yu Palace, Jiao Palace and Shang Palace. And as far as I know, the rare cloth in Shang Palace has long been made into protective clothing for researching and making weapons.

But at this moment, the lady in front of me is wearing a dress made of the same Tsukimi spider silk! This really surprised me. Where did she get the fabric for this dress from? "Speaking of this, Gong Yuanzheng couldn't help but stare at the dress the woman was wearing on the ground, with a sinister smile in his eyes, as if he wanted to see through the dress to see the secret hidden in it.

Mrs. Ya collapsed on the ground, feeling cold sweat running down her back.

Gong Hongyu also thought of the time two years ago when Gong Yuanzheng did send someone to deliver a piece of moon-white cloth after returning from Tiandu. If it was really as Gong Yuanzheng said, then where did this woman get the clothes she was wearing? There was only one answer, that she secretly opened Gong Zishang's private vault, stole the things Gong Yuanzheng stored there, and made clothes to wear.

"Jindun, take your men and follow the people in charge of the private storehouse in Zheng Palace to the eldest lady's private storehouse to check it out. Find out what's going on." Gong Hongyu naturally understood what Gong Yuanzheng said. The cloth was sent by people from Tiandu, but because Gong Yuanzheng was thinking about the palace gates, he gave one piece to each palace.

However, now he actually saw the fifth piece of clothing made by Yue Jian on someone else. Gong Zishang had neither a good nor a bad relationship with him, so he would not do such a thing.

Gong Hongyu had people arrange tea and seats, and everyone sat down and waited for the Red Jade Guard beside Zhi Ren and the people from Zheng Gong to investigate thoroughly.

Mrs. Ya was swaying from side to side, fidgeting.

Seeing her like this, Gong Hongyu knew without even checking that she was the one who must have stolen something.
