A few days before Li Cuicui died,
In the dead of the night, Zheng Gong was sleeping soundly on the bed in Zheng Gong's mansion. Zhang Ning was sitting by the bed with his clothes draped over his shoulders. He was quietly watching Zheng Gong sleep. He clenched his fists and bit his lips. His mind was filled with thoughts.
Zhang Ning gently caressed Zheng Gong's face and said in a soft voice," Husband, you are a hero, so you are fearless. But I am just a little girl. Besides, you are so innocent that you will be used by others. I am doing this for your own good. If you know, you will understand me, right? And you may not know. Even if you know, as long as I don't admit it, you will believe me."
"Hmm?" Zheng Gong woke up groggily and felt someone touching his face. He opened his eyes and saw Zhang Ning.
"Oh, Madam, why aren't you asleep yet?”Zheng Gong held Zhang Ning's hand that was touching his face and asked in a daze.
"Yes ~ I didn't sleep tonight. Seeing that my husband was sleeping soundly, I couldn't bear to disturb him. I didn't expect that my husband would still wake up. I hope my husband won't blame me.”
When Zheng Gong heard Zhang Ning's gentle voice, his body went limp. He quickly said," It's okay, it's okay. It's just a small matter. I'm not a petty person."”
"I knew you were a hero! He definitely won't blame me."
the second day
Accompanied by Zheng Gong, Zhang Ning strolled around Guangzong City. Although Guangzong City was not a famous city like Ye City, it was not much different. After more than 100,000 Yellow Turban soldiers entered the city, it became even more lively. Zhang Ning and Zheng Gong strolled among the crowd. All the Yellow Turban believers would silently give way to Zheng Gong and Zhang Ning when they saw them.
"Furen, why are you in the mood to stroll around today? Usually, Furen doesn't go out of the main door and doesn't step outside.”Zheng Gong pulled Zhang Ning into his arms and asked in confusion.
" Husband, I heard that you have shown your might on the battlefield recently, so I wanted to go out and see your reputation in the Road of Peace. Now that I've seen you today, you really live up to your reputation."”Zhang Ning glared at Zheng Gong with her red phoenix eyes. Zheng Gong's heart was beating fast and his face was red.
" Husband is so awesome!"
"Brother Zheng Gong!"
"Hmm?"
When Zhang Ning turned around and saw this person, he thought to himself,"Humph, it's just as I expected."
"So…it's the Li family…Miss, may I know why you called me?”When Zheng Gong saw this person, his expression instantly stiffened.
"Brother Zheng Gong, what's wrong? Why are you treating me like an outsider? Could it be that Brother Zheng Gong doesn't want to see Little Sister?”Li Cuicui looked like she was about to cry at any moment.
"This…this…"
Li Cuicui's appearance caused Zheng Gong to be flustered. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind (which was rare). He pointed at Zhang Ning and said to Li Cuicui.
"Look at me, I didn't even introduce you to Miss Li. This is my wife, Zhang Ning.”
"You are the Saintess of Taiping, Saintess Zhang Ning! Disciple Li Cuicui greets the Holy Maiden." (Here, because Zhang Ning rarely appeared, although the Yellow Turban Army knew that Zheng Gong married Zhang Ning, except for a few high-ranking generals, most of the rest did not know what Zhang Ning looked like.)
"It's okay, Sister Cuicui. Everyone in the Path of Peace is equal. There's no need to do this. (Zhang Ning said in her heart,"If you dare to approach my husband's woman, I can't wait to tear you into pieces!" "But you won't live for long, so I don't need to be angry with you." After saying that, Zhang Ning helped Li Cuicui up.
However, when Zhang Ning's right hand touched Li Cuicui's left hand, a purple-gold talisman suddenly flew out of Zhang Ning's right sleeve and entered Li Cuicui's left sleeve. The word 'disaster' could be vaguely seen on the talisman. Zhang Ning smiled at Li Cuicui, showing the demeanor of a young lady from a noble family. This made Li Cuicui feel a little embarrassed.
Li Cuicui hurriedly said,"I didn't know that the Mad Dragon Canal Marshal was with the Saintess. I'm sorry to disturb you. I still have some matters to attend to at home, so I'll take my leave first."”Without waiting for Zheng Gong's reply, she ran away.
Zheng Gong was also confused and didn't understand. However, since he didn't understand, Zheng Gong wouldn't think about it. He said to Zhang Ning," Madam, let's go.”
"Wait a moment, husband."
"Hmm? What is it?"
"Husband has forgotten that Miss Cuicui gave Husband a sachet. Since Husband has no intention, you should buy it for Miss Cuicui.”
"This…"
"Could it be that husband is unwilling?"
Zheng Gong saw the smile on Zhang Ning's face disappear and quickly explained," Of course not. It's just that I didn't bring the sachet with me."”
"Don't worry husband, I've brought it for you.”As she spoke, Zhang Ning took out a sachet and handed it to Zheng Gong. It was the one that Li Cuicui had given to Zheng Gong yesterday. Zheng Gong took the sachet and looked at it.
"Then…should I return it now?”
"Yes!"
"Then, Madam…will you come with us?"
"There is no need, husband. I naturally believe in you. (Zhang Ning thought to herself,"Why would I worry about a dying person?"）”
"Yeah," she said.
After Zheng Gong bid farewell to Zhang Ning, he took the sachet and asked around about Li Cuicui's residence. However, there were more than 100,000 Yellow Turban people, and few people knew who Li Cuicui was. After that, Zheng Gong returned to the residence and said to Zhang Ning," Madam, Fei Gong doesn't want to return the sachet. I can't find Miss Li's residence."”
Zhang Ning let out a bell-like laugh." Husband, didn't Miss Cuicui say that she was Li Damu's sister? Husband, you can just ask for the location of Li Damu's residence.”
"Oh oh oh"
Zheng Gong rushed out of his mansion with a red face. He asked around and arrived at the door of Li Damu's house. Zheng Gong knocked on the door and shouted.
"Brother Big Eye! Is Brother Big Eye here?"
With a creak, the door opened. However, the person who came was not Li Damu. It was Li Cuicui, whom Zheng Gong had been searching for. Li Cuicui was overjoyed to see Zheng Gong.
"No, I'm here to look for Miss Li."
" Zheng Gong already has a wife. My wife saved your life, and she doesn't mind that Zheng Gong is fatherless and motherless, so she married you. With such kindness, Gong…I'll return this sachet to you.”
After saying that, Zheng Gong stuffed the sachet into Li Cuicui's hands and turned to leave. Li Cuicui was also shocked by Zheng Gong. She was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses. She hurriedly chased after Zheng Gong and blocked him.
" Brother Zheng Gong, you've misunderstood. This is just for safety…"
"Then give it to Big Eye. My martial arts are far superior to Big Eye's. This sachet will be given to Brother Big Eye.”
"Sigh! No, Brother Zheng Gong, I have it too. Brother Zheng Gong, you misunderstood!”
"I don't know if I've misunderstood, but I don't want my wife to misunderstand. Zheng Gong won't let Zhang Ning down in this life!”After saying that, Zheng Gong ignored Li Cuicui and left.
"Brother Zheng Gong! No, wuuu Cough!"
