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

Su Yuanqing smiled and bowed to Zheng Xianfu again. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something and said quickly, "That day, I went to the Hall of Supreme Harmony but didn't see Your Majesty, so I took Ling Xiao for a walk in the Imperial Garden. I didn't expect that when I walked to the Chang'an Hall, I heard someone talking from inside the wall. At that time, Ling Xiao said that I was overworked and had hallucinations. But after I went back, the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong. No one had lived in the Chang'an Hall for many years, and now there were voices. Your Majesty must investigate it thoroughly when he returns."

Zheng Xian laughed and said, "The queen is worrying too much. Recently, I asked the servants to clean up the palaces and prepare to welcome the envoys from Beixiang and Nanqin who are coming to participate in the autumn hunt."

Su Yuanqing looked as if she had suddenly realized something, and said, "So it's not just hallucinations that I heard. Your Majesty doesn't know that I've been unable to sleep because of this. I'm afraid that something ominous has harmed Your Majesty."

The queen spoke with deep emotion, but I just rolled my eyes.

Su Yuanqing actually said that Chang'an Palace was haunted. Doesn't that mean we are all ghosts? You are the ghost, and your whole family is ghosts!

Zheng Xian smiled and consoled her, "Don't worry, Queen. The Hall of Supreme Harmony is heavily guarded, and outsiders will never be able to enter. Besides, I have great fortunes, so why should I fear demons and monsters?"

Su Yuanqing quickly agreed and said, "Your Majesty is right. I was too suspicious."

Zheng Xian asked: "Queen, please go back. It's late at night and the road is not easy to walk on."

Su Yuanqing smiled and nodded, bowed, and said, "I'll take my leave."

Zheng Xian waved his hand, and Su Yuanqing boarded the Fengluan and left, surrounded by a group of palace maids.

After the queen left, Zheng Xian looked at Zheng Yan, who was still standing behind him and unwilling to leave. He couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Does the prince have anything else to do?"

Zheng Yan glanced at me standing behind Zheng Xian and said with some stammering: "Your Majesty, I think the little barbarian next to you is quite interesting. Father, can you give the little barbarian to me?"

I was so scared that I looked up at Zheng Yan. What a funny guy! You two can't bear to see me suffer, so you are teasing me on purpose, right? Zheng Xian, if you dare to give me to Zheng Yan, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost!

Zheng Xian turned his head and looked at me, then looked at Zheng Yan with an unclear expression and asked, "Do you want her?"

Zheng Yan nodded quickly.

Zheng Xian suddenly frowned and said, "You want to take away something you find interesting? Where do you want to put your father?"

Zheng Xian's anger was somewhat inexplicable. Zheng Yan was stunned by the scolding. Looking at Zheng Xian's dark face, he quickly knelt down, lowered his head and said: "I am wrong, please punish me, father."

Zheng Xian still asked with a straight face: "What's wrong?"

Zheng Yan thought for a moment and whispered, "You shouldn't covet your father's things."

Zheng Xian nodded and said, "It's not that stupid."

After Zheng Xian finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves, turned around and got on the sedan chair.

At Wei Yi's scream of "Your Majesty, please get up!", everyone knelt down and saw the emperor off.

There were eight large lanterns on the sedan chair, all of which were lit, illuminating the place brightly. As the sedan chair passed by, it was particularly eye-catching.

On the way back, the sedan bearers finally stopped being in a hurry and walked slowly all the way. I didn't have to rush along with them, panting and exhausting myself.

After walking for a while, Zheng Xian, who had been holding his chin and squinting his eyes in thought, suddenly said, "Ah Man, what do you think of the prince?"

This question is undoubtedly a bomb. Whether the answer is good or bad is not the key, the key lies in the emperor himself!

If the emperor thinks your answer is not good, he can take your life at any time!

I looked at Zheng Xian's uncertain face, stretched my body, stretched my muscles, kicked my legs, and said, "He is your son, how could he be any worse?"

In fact, what I want to say in my heart is that you only have a few sons, and except for Zheng Yan who can still be relied upon, it is better to forget about the others.

When Zheng Xian heard this, he burst into laughter, as if all the gloom in his heart had been swept away. He said in a good mood, "Aman is right. I am very happy to hear it."

I looked up at the starry sky and suddenly thought of my modern home and my parents. My original intention to go back has not changed, but I just haven't found a way to do it.

After a while, Zheng Xian said, "Ah Man, don't be unhappy. After the chrysanthemum viewing banquet, there will be autumn hunting. I will take Ah Man to go hunting together to relax."

I looked at my still bloated body and said with disdain, "I'm afraid I can't even climb a horse, let alone hunt."

Zheng Xian said, "Tomorrow I will ask Wei Chang to take you to the horse training ground at the south gate to practice riding. There is still some time before the autumn hunt. I believe that Ah Man will definitely be able to become a horse general by then."

I thought about it and thought that horse riding was better than training my legs with sandbags tied to my legs and jumping over stairs every day in the yard, so I nodded and said, "That's good, otherwise I'll be bored to death in the yard every day."

Zheng Xian smiled and said nothing. After a while, he said, "Ah Man, do you know why I want you to follow me to the family dinner today?"

I shook my head and said, "I don't know."

Zheng Xian played with the large spot on his thumb and said, "I can protect you for a while, but I can't protect you forever. I want to take you to various palaces to show you around. With more experience, you will naturally have the ability to protect yourself."

"What do you want to see?" I asked, looking up in confusion.

Zheng Xian said with a half-smile: "See how to kill people without shedding blood and eat people without leaving any bones."

As soon as Zheng Xian finished speaking, I felt a gust of cold wind blowing past me. The hairs on my body stood up and I couldn't help but shiver.

When Zheng Xian saw me like this, he couldn't help but burst into laughter again.

His laughter echoed far and wide in the silent palace.

He was the emperor and could live a reckless and arrogant life. Even the imperial guards on night patrol would take a detour to pay their respects when they saw the emperor's sedan chair, let alone dare to ask questions.

But I am just an ant, living a humble and miserable life. I have never thought about leaping to the level of a superior person and becoming the one that everyone has to bow to.

I pondered for a long time and said, "In the palace, is it true that the so-called love between mother and child, husband and wife, and father and son are all fake?"

My words were like a loud thunder, shaking everyone present, especially Wei Yi. I felt that he was about to fall down, but in the end he held on to the handrail of the sedan chair tightly to prevent himself from falling.

Zheng Xian looked at the palaces of different sizes inside the palace wall with a dark look in his eyes. Then he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "A'man already has the answer in his heart, why ask me?"

I shook my head and said, "The palace is full of schemes. Why do you want to keep me in the palace? I really don't understand."

Zheng Xian touched his big spotted finger and said, "There are schemes everywhere in this world. With Ah Man's simple mind, without my protection, she will be eaten up and wiped out wherever she goes. What's the difference between inside and outside the palace?"

I have no way to refute what he said.

As we were walking, I suddenly remembered something and said, "I don't think the Queen Mother's accent sounds like that of Dayu, but I remember her brother is Lu Shangshu, so he should be a native of Dayu. It's really strange."

Wei Yi, who was walking in front of me, paused noticeably, but tried his best to control himself, and his hands holding the sedan chair tightened a little.
