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

Now that he has retired and joined the guard battalion, his salary has increased a lot, but his house has walls that are windy on all sides and there is not even a kang. In this cold winter, his poor old mother can only wrap herself in a tattered quilt to survive every day.

There is a possibility that the escort mission will result in death, but the reward is very considerable, each person can get one hundred taels of silver.

The one hundred taels of silver were enough for his old mother to enjoy her old age.

So Qin Feng signed up first without hesitation, and was appointed as the captain of the guard. He also received twenty taels of silver more than others, which made him very happy.

Qin Feng looks simple and honest. Although his leg is injured, it is not noticeable when he walks normally.

I asked someone to call Qin Feng over, and I pointed to the three boxes on the ground and said, "These three boxes are very important, and must be kept well."

Qin Feng nodded quickly in response.

I picked up a mask, tied it on my face, and said, "This is called a mask. You must wear it when you go to deliver food to the doctor or feed the cows. Now that the cows have been injected with blood containing the virus, they will probably get sick soon. Cows will sneeze when they get sick. This disease can be spread through droplets. Although I promised that I won't let you die, it will be very uncomfortable if you get sick. For your own safety, there is no need to make this mistake. Also, after using this mask, you must burn it. Don't keep it to avoid secondary infection."

Qin Feng picked up a mask and put it on like me. After putting it on, he found that he could breathe smoothly. He said happily: "Thank you, Lord Zhao. This kind of mask is much more convenient than tying a towel. I will take it and teach them how to wear it."

I quickly called him and said, "Don't leave in a hurry. Can you write?"

Qin Feng said a little embarrassedly: "I haven't read much, so I can't write well. If you want to find someone who can write, there is a man named He Kaiyang. He went to a private school for a few years and can write neatly."

I said happily, "Then please ask him to come over."

Qin Feng turned around and walked over to call He Kaiyang.

He Kaiyang is very young, looks only eighteen or nineteen years old, with delicate features and a handsome appearance.

When He Kaiyang came in, he bowed to me first, then asked, "I wonder why you called me here, sir?"

I naturally have a better impression of people who look gentle and polite.

I smiled and said, "I heard from Chief Inspector Qin that you can write. I would like to ask you to write a prescription for me."

He Kaiyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He thought he had done something wrong and was here to be scolded.

They were all privately speculating about my identity and status.

Anyone who can carry out affairs with the emperor's secret decree is called an imperial envoy, but I am so young and don't look like an imperial envoy, so who am I?

So they were reluctant to get close to me, for fear of making mistakes and being punished.

He Kaiyang didn't expect me to be so "friendly" and immediately replied with a smile: "Your Excellency, I have studied in a private school for a few years, and I can usually write any character that is not too difficult."

I said happily, "That's great. Please help me copy a prescription. I want to take it out."

He Kaiyang quickly found paper, pen and ink, sat upright and wrote while listening to me read.

After He Kaiyang finished writing the prescription, he handed it to me. The handwriting was quite neat, but it was far inferior to Zheng Bang's.

But I still praised him for his good writing without hesitation, and He Kaiyang's face turned red.

I put the prescription into my lapel, said "thank you" to He Kaiyang, and went to find Zhang San and Li Si.

After I left, He Kaiyang was still in a trance. Qin Feng came in to find someone to do something, and when he saw He Kaiyang sitting there stupidly, he said unhappily, "Why are you still sitting there? The master is staying here tonight, so hurry up and clean up the best room."

He Kaiyang smiled foolishly and said, "Captain of the Guard, just now, the master said to me, thank you."

Qin Feng was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help but look outside the door. I was jogging up the mountain.

Qin Feng thought for a moment and said, "Lord Zhao has a good temper, so we should do our best and not embarrass him."

He Kaiyang stood up and said loudly: "Yes, Captain of the Guard."

Qin Feng patted He Kaiyang on the shoulder and said, "Go and do your work. You can come out to eat after you finish cleaning the house."

He Kaiyang said happily: "Yes, I'll go right away."

When He Kaiyang was a child, his family was relatively well-off, otherwise they would not have had the money to send him to a private school. Later, his family fell into poverty and his parents died one after another. At a young age, he was so hungry that he wanted to join the army, but his thin arms and legs made people not want him, and he ended up begging on the streets. He spent a few years like this, and when he was a little older, he signed up to join the army and someone finally selected him, so he spent a few years in the army.

That year, He Kaiyang followed Zhao Zhenyuan back to Beijing. Coincidentally, the Imperial Guard's guard battalion was recruiting people. He Kaiyang looked good, so he went for a try. Unexpectedly, he was selected, so he stayed in Beijing and became a guard.

Among these ten guards, several had followed Zhao Zhenyuan and received Zhao Zhenyuan's favor, and they had great respect for Zhao Zhenyuan.

Zhao Zhenyuan was an extremely capable commander of troops, but he chose to listen to Gui Lanting's words, causing his children to become homeless.

When I got to the woods, I saw Zhang San and Li Si were already waiting there.

I took out the prescription and handed it to Zhang San, saying, "I will be staying at the ranch for the time being. Take this prescription back to the capital and find a pharmacy to prepare the medicine according to the prescription. It would be best if you grind it into powder and bring it back."

Zhang San got anxious when he heard this: "Second Young Master, this place is very remote and we are not with you. It is very unsafe for you. You should come back to the camp with us. At least there are more people in the camp and it is quite safe."

I shook my head and said, "You don't understand. As long as I'm here, this place is safe. Stop talking. I've made up my mind. Also, after you get the medicine, go to the cosmetics store and see if there's anything like rose essential oil. If there's no essential oil, rose cream will be fine. Bring me some more. Also buy a few more quilts. It's too cold here."

Seeing that I had no intention of questioning him, Zhang San had no choice but to take a wooden box off his horse and hand it to me, saying, "This is what Lord Gongsun asked us to pass on to the Second Young Master before he left."

I took it curiously and saw that it was full of books and calligraphy...

Does Gongsun Wen despise me for being illiterate and want me to study hard and learn to read?

Damn it, I am a PhD after all. Even though I don’t know traditional Chinese characters well, I am not illiterate!

Zhang San saw that my face darkened after I took the bookcase, and he felt a little nervous. He said quickly, "Second Young Master, do you have any other instructions? If not, we should hurry down the mountain before it gets dark."
