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

After Yiping cooked the noodles, he brought them directly to Jinping's house.

There were two golden poached eggs nestled on the noodles, making Jinping's mouth water. As soon as he got it, he ate it in big mouthfuls, not caring about the heat.

Zheng Bang, who lived in the side room, heard the noise from our side and seemed to smell the delicious fried eggs. He couldn't sleep anymore and hurriedly called Xichun to the front room to see if there was anything delicious.

Wangchun and Xichun were assigned to take care of Zheng Bang. Since Zheng Bang was still young and weak and needed care at all times, the two of them placed a small bed in the side room and took turns to take care of Zheng Bang.

It happened that Xichun was on night shift that day, and his master wanted to eat, so Xichun had to run to the front room to look for Yiping. Not finding anyone, he went to the kitchen and saw the pot of chicken soup still steaming. So he filled a bowl of soup, took a piece of bread, broke it into pieces, put it in the soup, and brought it to Zheng Bang.

Since Zheng Bang came to this house, his spirits have been getting better and better. He also gets hungry very quickly and wants to eat again not long after finishing a meal.

He ate up such a big bowl of steamed buns in one gulp. Then he rubbed his belly contentedly and went to sleep.

We didn’t know what happened in Zheng Bang’s room. After Jinping had eaten and drunk his fill, we also went back to the room.

Before returning to the room, Yiping went to see Zheng Bang on purpose. Xichun told her that the Seventh Prince had eaten before going to bed.

Yi Ping then remembered that he had not prepared food for Zheng Bang before going to bed. Fortunately, the boy did not make a fuss, otherwise he would have had a restless night.

Yiping felt that having Zheng Bang in this house was already exhausting both physically and mentally, and then Jinping came back. He had to serve two ancestors at once, which made him tired just thinking about it.

After returning to the house, Yiping simply washed up, and after confirming with me that I would accompany her to the Du family, she lay down contentedly. Not long after, I could hear a slight snoring from her. It seemed that she was really tired.

I was very tired after running around outside all day, so I lay down on the bed after washing up. As soon as my body touched the bed, I fell into a deep sleep.

I was sleeping soundly when I heard someone calling me. I thought I was dreaming and didn't want to answer.

But the shouting became louder and louder, and finally succeeded in waking me up!

I opened my eyes drowsily, half asleep and half awake, when a big face appeared in front of me, and a long tongue was almost reaching out to my face!

I was so scared that I screamed "Ah" and jumped up from the bed.

Only then did I see Su Bowen clearly, no, the whole person was floating above my head!

Fortunately, Yiping was too tired and slept very soundly, otherwise he would have been woken up by me.

I was so angry that I slapped Su Bowen, but he floated away calmly.

Su Bowen floated away and said, "I just came back from the general's mansion. Don't you want to hear how Madam Zhao is doing now?"

I gritted my teeth and said, "Brother, it's the middle of the night now. Can't you come tomorrow if you have something to do? I'm exhausted and I finally fell asleep and you came to scare me. If you keep going like this, even ten of my lives won't be enough for you to scare me."

Su Bowen floated in the air and posed sideways, his hand supporting his chin. He said to me lazily, "Ghosts are most afraid of light and cannot walk in the daytime. Second, after my body is buried, it will be taken away by the ghost messenger and we will never see each other again in this life. So if you don't say something now, you will never have the chance to say it in the future."

I was stunned. Although Su Bowen was naughty, he was actually very loyal. He did everything he promised to do for me, but I didn't do anything I promised him.

I lay back on the bed and said, "Then go ahead and talk. I'm listening."

Su Bowen floated above me again. This time he didn't lie down. Instead, he sat cross-legged and started talking excitedly.

Zhaofu Baixiangyuan

Gui Lanting was lying on the bed, half-lying on his side, his face pale and his eyes dull.

Zhao Fangping brought a bowl of stewed bird's nest porridge and fed Gui Lanting in small mouthfuls.

Gui Lanting ate a few bites and refused to eat, saying he felt dizzy and wanted to vomit.

Zhao Fangping put down the porridge, looked at his mother with red eyes, and said, "Mother, you must take good care of yourself. The general's mansion cannot do without you."

Gui Lanting sighed and said, "Mother didn't want to do that either. She was so scared that day that she fainted. After waking up, she has been feeling unwell ever since. Fang'er, you are staying well in the palace. Don't leave the palace casually, for fear of offending His Majesty. Since His Majesty has allowed you to accompany the Crown Prince, you may not be able to leave the position of Crown Princess. But the more so, the more cautious you must be in the palace, so as not to give others a chance to talk about you. Otherwise, all our planning for so many years will be in vain."

There seemed to be some displeasure in Zhao Fangping's eyes, as if he thought his mother was nagging him.

She was walking on thin ice in the palace. She served the Crown Prince and Concubine Gui wholeheartedly every day, and also had to learn the palace etiquette from those annoying maids. But every time she returned home, her mother never cared about her. She always told her to be obedient and not make any mistakes, so as not to lose her position as Crown Princess.

Zhao Fangping hated the General's Mansion and his mother more and more.

But how could someone who had stayed in the palace for a long time show his joy on his face?

So Zhao Fangping quickly suppressed his displeasure, put on a well-behaved and obedient expression, and said, "I know, mother. It's not because I'm worried about your illness that I'm in a hurry to leave the palace and come back to see you."

Gui Lanting nodded and said, "Mother knows that Fang'er is well behaved. Fang'er should take good care of himself in the palace. If you don't have enough money, ask mother for it. Don't be stingy. You should spend more money in the palace to pave the way for the future."

Zhao Fangping nodded obediently and said, "I understand."

Gui Lanting seemed a little tired, closed his eyes and said, "It's getting late, Fang'er, go back and rest early, don't worry about mother, mother is suffering from a mental illness, she will be fine after a few days of recuperation. If all else fails, go to Huangjue Temple to ask Master Huijing for two talismans and apply them, then no demons or ghosts will dare to come."

Zhao Fangping nodded and said, "Okay, if mother is not in good health, I can go to Huangjue Temple to ask for talismans on her behalf."

Gui Lanting shook her head and said, "No, you should return to the palace as soon as possible. Too many people are eyeing the position of Crown Princess. You have finally made it to this point, and mother doesn't want you to lose everything."

Zhao Fangping stood up, bowed to Gui Lanting, and said, "I understand. Mother, please go to bed early. I will take my leave now."

Gui Lanting closed his eyes and said "hmm".

Zhao Fangping was just about to leave with the help of a maid when suddenly a cold wind blew up in the room, and most of the oil lamps in the room were blown out. Only a few were left, swaying and looking like they were about to go out.

Zhao Fangping frowned and said, "Who opened the window in such a cold weather? I will break her legs."

Gui Lanting closed her eyes and felt a little sleepy, but a gust of cold wind blew on her face, waking her up abruptly.

She opened her eyes and saw that the room was dark and the wind was still blowing. It was the same as that day. She was so scared that she screamed, "Come quickly, come quickly, close the door, close the window, quickly."

As soon as Gui Lanting finished speaking, Su Bowen suddenly appeared in the room. He stretched out his long tongue to lick his face, then took off his head and said to Zhao Fangping with a smile: "Young lady, do you want to play football? Brother's head is for you to kick."
