The steps were really high, so Ankang simply carried me down.

As soon as I walked to Xiao Huihui, Xiao Huihui couldn't help but let out a long hiss and pushed his head against me.

I laughed so hard at it that I touched its head and said, "Did you miss me so much? You're so excited that your saliva and snot are coming out."

Huihui grinned and nodded vigorously.

Ankang carefully put me down, and Huihui actually knelt down on his front legs and lowered his body to let me get on the horse.

I patted its forehead and said, "What a good baby."

After hearing this, Huihui became even more excited and wagged his tail vigorously, signaling me to get on the horse quickly.

Ankang helped me get on the horse carefully. I stroked the fur on Xiao Huihui's back and said, "I've had a serious illness and I'm a little weak. You must not run so fast."

Little Huihui kicked his hind legs and nodded obediently.

Wei Chang pulled the reins and walked slowly in front.

I looked at the Hall of Supreme Harmony getting farther and farther away from me and breathed a long sigh of relief.

I looked at Wei Chang who was silently holding the reins in front of me, and couldn't help asking, "Master, how did you know I wanted to leave?"

Without even turning his head, Wei Chang said, "I heard Ankang when the Third Miss was talking."

I couldn't help but glance at Ankang, who was startled and said quickly, "I've already spoken very quietly."

As Wei Chang walked away, he said, "It's not your fault, it's just that my hearing is too good."

I rolled my eyes speechlessly. I couldn't count on Wei Chang who was always elusive. Whenever I got into trouble, I didn't know where he ran off to. He said he was my bodyguard, but he never protected me. I was quite convinced.

So I said, "We haven't decided where to go yet. If you don't have time, you don't have to come with us."

Wei Chang still said without turning his head: "I'm free."

I.....

Gongsun Wen could no longer hold back his laughter and burst into laughter.

I rolled my eyes at him and said, "Is it funny?"

Gongsun Wen didn't mind my rolling eyes and said, "It's funny."

I was so angry that I kicked my horse's belly and said, "Xiao Huihui, let's go and ignore them."

Xiao Huihui kicked the horse's legs and ran away with a "da da wei".

Yi Ping was startled and said, "Don't ride so fast. Be careful not to fall off the horse."

I pretended not to hear him and ran faster.

Wei Chang, who was walking in front holding the horse reins, wanted to pull the horse's head, but was afraid that I would fall off, so he had to use his lightness skills and ran quickly with me all the way.

When Gongsun Wen and the others saw me running away on horseback, they had no choice but to run after me.

Fortunately, we accidentally ran all the way out of the palace, otherwise if we were a few steps slower, we would have been caught by Zheng Xian.

After Gongsun Wen left, Zheng Yan felt that it was indeed a headache for him since his teacher was gone and there was no one to help him handle official affairs. So he went directly to the Queen's Jinxiu Palace to discuss with his father whether to let Li Jin come into the palace to help him.

When Zheng Yan arrived at Jinxiu Palace, he saw Zheng Xian playing chess with the Queen.

Queen Su Yuanqing was also a talented woman, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Otherwise, she would not have caught Zheng Xian's eye and become the queen among so many beauties in the harem.

Zheng Yan bowed to his father and mother, then stood behind his mother and watched them play chess.

Zheng Xian, holding the black chess piece, placed a chess piece in a dangerous place, which opened up the entire situation. He was just a few steps away from turning defeat into victory.

Zheng Xian was often beaten by the Queen when playing chess, but this time he finally had a chance to win, and he was in a particularly good mood. He glanced at Zheng Yan and asked, "Aren't you in the Imperial Study reviewing memorials? What are you doing here?"

Zheng Yan said quickly, "Father, the teacher said that he was going to the Queen Mother Temple in Xishan to pay respect to the Queen Mother. If he leaves, there will be no one to assist me in governing the country. The teacher said that Lord Li Jin has a very high level of literary attainments and is smooth and smart in dealing with people. With him assisting me in governing the country, it will be much easier for me to handle official business."

Zheng Xian said without even looking up, "Nonsense, Zi Yan is just going to worship the gods, he's not not coming back, you have to work hard these few days, learn to handle official business independently, and ask me if you don't understand. Li Jin is very busy with official duties, and he even asked me to send him more people a few days ago. If you ask him to assist in the administration, won't that cause trouble for him?"

Zheng Yan thought for a moment and said, "But the teacher said that we should stay in the Queen Mother Temple for a while. This will help Ah Man's condition."

Zheng Xian raised his head quickly, looking at Zheng Yan with a murderous look, and asked, "Isn't it the Queen Mother Temple that Zi Yan went to? What does this have to do with A Man?"

Zheng Yan was shocked by Zheng Xian's expression. He didn't know why his father, who was so happy just now, suddenly changed his expression. He moved back timidly and said, "It is precisely because Ah Man's spirit and soul are not in harmony and his body is getting weaker and weaker that the teacher wanted to take Ah Man to the West Mountain to worship the Queen Mother and pray for the Dharma affinity. The abbot will give Ah Man a fairy peach so that Ah Man can recover faster."

Zheng Xian's face became darker and darker. He tightly grasped the black coins in his hand and said, "When did Zi Yan tell you that he was going to Xishan?"

Zheng Yan thought for a moment and said, "About an hour ago."

Zheng Xian was so angry that he threw the black piece in his hand onto the chessboard, stood up, and angrily asked: "Why are you saying this now?"

Zheng Yan knelt on the ground in fear, and said in panic: "Father, calm down. I came here after lunch, so, so I was delayed for some time."

Zheng Xian gnashed his teeth and said, "You are a rebellious son who never uses his brain. I will punish you."

After Zheng Xian finished speaking, he immediately said to Wei Yi: "Hurry up and go to the main gate to intercept them. Make sure you stop these people and bring them back."

"Yes, sir!" Wei Yi said, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Zheng Xian became angrier and angrier, and wanted to kick Zheng Yan. The queen quickly grabbed Zheng Xian and said, "Your Majesty, let alone the prince, even I don't know why your majesty is so angry. If you explain clearly, the prince will not make the same mistake again in the future."

Zheng Xian sighed, sat back on the stool, and said, "You don't know, Ah Man is my luck."

"Luck?" The Queen and Zheng Yan shouted at the same time.

"That's right. The reason why Ah Man has constant bad luck is because she has transferred all my bad luck, which is why I am safe and sound. Fortunately, her luck is strong enough, otherwise my bad luck would have crushed her long ago." Zheng Xian said calmly.

"What?" The Queen and Zheng Yan looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.

The Queen said, "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you are loved by heaven and earth. How can you say that you are unlucky? Could it be that Your Majesty believed the words of the quacks and scared yourself?"

Zheng Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, also secretly raised his head and glanced at Zheng Xian, and said, "I also think what mother said makes sense. Father, please don't scare yourself and add to your own worries."

Zheng Xian smiled bitterly and said, "A'man has left. It would be good if little Weizi could get her back. If not, you will soon know whether what I said is true or not."
