After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

I was exhausted from studying and Xiao Chunzi was shouting at the top of her lungs. When the sun went down and Yiping had finished cooking, I still hadn't met Xiao Chunzi's requirements and standards.

Xiao Chunzi was so tired that her throat was smoking and her eyes were full of stars. She said helplessly: "It takes a long time to learn the palace rules and etiquette. I will come back tomorrow."

Xiao Chunzi shook her exhausted body and wanted to go back. Yiping quickly stuffed a purse into Xiao Chunzi's hand. Xiao Chunzi pretended to be polite and pushed it away twice, but finally put the purse into her sleeve and left.

I was so tired that I collapsed at the table. Watching Yiping serving me food, I asked, "Where did you learn this?"

Yi Ping rolled his eyes at me and said, "Don't worry about where I learned it. I learned all those etiquette rules just by watching. You have been studying for a long time but still can't learn them. No matter how much money I have, it will not be enough to pay you back for your favor."

I pointed to the two boxes of gold, silver and jewelry in the corner and said, "Isn't this enough for you to spend?"

Yi Ping pushed the bowl in front of me in a bad mood and said, "You don't even dare to touch these two boxes of things, and you asked me to spend them. Do I think I have a short life?"

I took a piece of garlic pork and put it in my mouth, saying, "It's not that I don't dare to touch it, but now that we are in the palace, we don't have to spend money on food, drink, defecation, and urination. We don't need to spend money at all. When we leave the palace, we will exchange these things for silver and gold to build a big house."

Yi Ping thought for a moment and said, "You have a point. We do need it now. But when we leave the palace, will His Majesty allow us to take it with us?"

I rolled my eyes and said, "This is something that was given to me as a reward, so it belongs to me. Why wouldn't they let me take it away?"

When Yi Ping heard this, he quickly put down his bowl and said, "Oh, if you hadn't told me earlier, I would have thought that I couldn't take these two boxes with me, so I had ignored them. Now that they belong to us, I have to hide them."

Seeing Yiping hiding his food like a little hamster, I quickly said, "Why are you hiding? This is in the palace. Who dares to steal our things? Do you want to die?"

When Yi Ping heard this, he thought it made sense, so he picked up his bowl and said happily while eating, "Actually, I usually secretly open the box to look at the jewelry inside, and sometimes I can't help but gesture on my head. If you can take them out of the palace, can you leave two for me?"

I ate my meal and said, "Okay, okay, I'll give it all to you."

Yiping became even happier and kept putting food into my bowl.

At this moment, Yingchun shouted from outside the gatehouse: "Master Gongsun is here."

Ever since she was seen by Gongsun Wen wearing her underwear last time, Yingchun knew she had made a big mistake and she no longer dared to bring anyone into the house without permission. She always had to ask someone outside the door for permission before she dared to bring anyone into the house.

When Yi Ping heard that Gongsun Wen had arrived, he hurried out to greet him.

As soon as Gongsun Wen entered the room, he sniffed and said, "I have been discussing important matters with Your Majesty today. I haven't eaten for a day. I am almost starving to death."

Upon hearing this, Yi Ping quickly went to get a set of bowls and chopsticks, filled a bowl with rice and placed it on the table, saying, "If Lord Gongsun doesn't mind the simple meal I Ping prepared, please have your meal here."

Gongsun Wen gave Yi Ping an admiring look, and as he sat down at the table, he said, "It looks delicious, so why would I dislike it?"

After Gongsun Wen finished speaking, he picked up the bowl and started eating in big mouthfuls. He looked like he was starving, without any trace of the elegance of a scholar.

The way Gongsun Wen ate was exactly the same as Zheng Xian's. The posture, the expression, the movements were as if they were printed from the same mold.

I was shocked by my own thoughts and my head was throbbing.

Gongsun Wen saw that I was staring at him, rolled his eyes and said, "Although I am beautiful, I can't fill my stomach. You should eat well and stop staring at me."

I almost spit out my rice. I've seen the cold-blooded Gongsun Wen, the elegant and interesting Gongsun Wen, and the dark and poisonous Gongsun Wen, but I've never seen such a showy Gongsun Wen!

I rolled my eyes and said, "You're eating like a hungry ghost. I was afraid there wasn't enough food, so I saved some for you."

Gongsun Wen laughed in disbelief and said, "In that case, I should be grateful to Ah Man for leaving some food for him."

I ignored his teasing and said to Yi Ping, "Take out the article I wrote last night and give it to Mr. Gongsun."

Yi Ping quickly took out the "Goddess of Luo River" that I had written all night last night from the cabinet and handed it to me.

I handed the manuscript to Gongsun Wen and said, "You gave me three days to write an article that is similar to the prince's. I finished it in less than a day. What do you think of my writing?"

Gongsun Wen was a little suspicious when he saw my smug look, but when he opened it and saw the really unpresentable handwriting, he was sure that it was undoubtedly written by me.

I wrote in simplified Chinese, which was a little difficult for Gongsun Wen to understand. However, that didn't stop him from using his clever brain to read the entire thing without missing a single word, even by guessing.

After he finished reading it, his mouth opened so wide that it seemed like an egg could fit in it!

He shook the paper in his hand in disbelief and asked, "Did you really write this?"

I knew he had this expression, and I was already very happy in my heart, but I suppressed my laughter and said, "No."

Gongsun Wen let out a long sigh and said, "I knew it wasn't written by you."

I added, “I can’t write an article like this, but you can’t write one either.”

Gongsun Wen's face changed, as if his secrets had been discovered. His face turned green and yellow, and he finally uttered a sentence with difficulty: "So you copied it on purpose to embarrass me?"

I quickly said, "How dare I, how dare I, I just want to tell you that there is no end to learning, there are always people better than you, don't think too highly of yourself, otherwise you will fall badly."

Gongsun Wen's face turned pale, but he couldn't utter a word.

I continued, "I'm not very good at writing articles because this is not my professional field. It's like asking you to farm, but you may not be able to grow crops well."

Gongsun Wen looked at me without saying anything. After a while, he carefully folded my manuscript into a small square tofu block and put it in his sleeve. He said, "I didn't expect Ah Man to say something so reasonable. It really makes me look at you with a smile. Ah Man, can you tell me who wrote this article?"

I finally caught an opportunity to make fun of Gongsun Wen, and thought I could make a big fuss about it, but I didn't expect him to brush it off with just a few words.

I was like a punch hitting cotton, without any sound or impact, the opponent was not hurt at all, but I made myself very angry.

I stuffed a mouthful of rice into my mouth and said gloomily, "Written by Cao Zhi during the Three Kingdoms period."

Gongsun Wen asked curiously, "What year is the Three Kingdoms period? I have read all the history books, but I have never seen the so-called Three Kingdoms period?"

I said, "I don't know if time and space can overlap or intersect. Anyway, the Great Yu Kingdom of your era was not recorded in the history books of my era."
