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

Zheng Xian then opened his eyes, glared at me fiercely, and said, "Move the Buddha statue to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. I will watch you burn incense and chant sutras every day."

This is what happens to a naughty child who doesn't do his homework well and is forced to do it by his parents.

I had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say. Don't get angry. If you get angry, all my needle work will be in vain."

When Zheng Xian heard this, he got even angrier and pushed me away, saying, "Get away from me. I get upset just by seeing you."

The cup of tea I was holding spilled all over me. Fortunately, I was wearing enough clothes, otherwise, I would have been scalded to death by the hot tea.

Considering that he was a patient, I swallowed my anger and put the cup back on the coffee table and moved it to the side.

Zheng Xian was so angry that he closed his eyes and ignored me.

I picked up the book and started reading.

Zheng Xian threw me a book of poetry appreciation. There were many traditional Chinese characters that I couldn’t write, but I had no problem understanding them.

The poems in this book of poetry appreciation are of a very high standard, but are still far behind those of Li Shixian and Du Shisheng.

I was watching with great interest when Wei Yi's voice suddenly came: "The master is here."

Zheng Xian, who had been dozing off, suddenly opened his eyes, said "hmm", and got off the carriage by himself without any help.

I don’t understand why Zheng Xian would go to Wangyue Tower for dinner when he was so weak, but he was the emperor and his words could not be questioned, so I had to follow him silently.

But after I got off the carriage, I found that this was not Wangyue Tower at all, but the house where Zheng Xian tricked me into saving someone when I first met him!

I pointed at the house and asked in surprise, "Isn't this the house where you tricked me into saving people?"

Zheng Xian rolled his eyes at me and said, "What do you mean by cheating? This is called a scheme."

I couldn't help but roll my eyes again. I was almost beaten to death, and this is called a strategy.

But you are the emperor, you are the biggest, and everything you say is right.

Zheng Xian deliberately ignored my rolling eyes and waved his hand. A guard leaped into the house and soon opened the door from the inside.

"Hey, there's no one in this room?" I couldn't help but ask curiously.

Zheng Xian said nothing and walked into the house.

The house was large and exquisite, with terraces, pavilions, and a large garden. However, no one had taken care of it for so long that the garden was overgrown with weeds.

Zheng Xian asked me, "Ah Man, what do you think of this house?"

I responded casually, “Very good.”

Zheng Xian said: "Since you think it's good, then this house is for you."

I was shocked. This house is so big, it must be worth a lot of money, right? Just give it away like that?

I looked around and shook my head hastily, saying, "I don't dare to take this house. I don't know how many people have died here. There are wronged souls everywhere. Living with a bunch of ghosts, how can I live long?"

"What?" This time it was Zheng Xian's turn to be surprised. He asked, "You said there are wronged souls everywhere here?"

I pointed to the frozen pond in the distance and said, "The bones in that pond are almost filling up the whole pond." Then I pointed to the well and said, "And this well, there are so many wronged souls that they are almost forming a ball. If you drink the water from this well, even the strongest person will not last long and will go to see the King of Hell."

I turned around and pointed at the house and said, "There is a constant black mist floating in this house. I guess the wronged souls inside are suppressed by something and can't get out. If they can come out, there will definitely be no fewer than the ones in this pond."

Zheng Xian's face darkened as he listened. He turned to Wei Yi and said, "Tell Li Nanyi to come over here right now."

Wei Yi quickly called the guards to invite Li Jin.

I leaned closer to Zheng Xian and said, "These wronged souls dared to risk their lives to escape in broad daylight. If I were not here, Your Majesty would probably fall seriously ill again when he returns. Your Majesty is weak, why don't we leave the house first?"

Zheng Xian indeed felt that the house was unbearably cold, so he nodded, turned around and walked out.

We waited outside the house for a while before Li Jin came hurriedly with a group of people.

Today was the first day that Chang'an government office was vaccinating the people, and Li Jin was very busy, but the emperor summoned him urgently, so he had to drop everything and run over.

When Li Jin saw Zheng Xian, he quickly dismounted and came forward to pay his respects.

Zheng Xian pointed at the house and said, "Send someone to break the ice on the pond and dig for me. Dig out all the bones. And the well, clean it out. And this house, I suspect there is a secret room or a cellar, check it carefully for me."

Li Jin was overwhelmed after hearing this. The government office was already short of staff, and now they had to allocate some people to dig the pond. What's more, it was freezing cold and the water in the pond had frozen, making it difficult to dig.

There are so many rooms in this house, no one knows where the secret room is.

Li Jin was about to cry, and said carefully: "Your Majesty, the government office is very busy these days, can you come back to dig the pond later?"

Zheng Xian glanced at Li Jin coldly and said, "What do you think?"

Li Jin was frightened by Zheng Xian's eyes and trembled. He said quickly, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will send someone to dig a pond right away."

Zheng Xian saw Li Jin dispatching people, turned around and took me to the carriage and left.

After getting on the carriage, Zheng Xian looked very bad. I didn't dare to say anything and just sat there silently.

Fortunately, we soon arrived at Wangyue Tower, and the awkward silence along the way finally ended.

Since it was the first day of opening, business at Wangyue Building was not very good, and there were only two tables of guests eating in the lobby on the first floor.

Zheng Xian had his own private room upstairs, but he found a private room on the first floor and walked in.

We had originally agreed to pick up Zheng Bang and Yi Ping, but Zheng Xian was in a bad mood and I didn't dare to mention it, so I had to follow him into the private room.

The private room is just a small place surrounded by a screen. The screen, as thin as a cicada's wing, is only decorative, and one can still clearly see what's happening outside.

I didn't understand why Zheng Xian had to sit in the private room, but I didn't dare to ask, so I had to sit there obediently and drink my tea in silence.

The shopkeeper came in personally to serve Zheng Xian, but Zheng Xian had a dark face and refused to say a word. The shopkeeper did not dare to make a decision to order food for Zheng Xian, so he could only stand behind Zheng Xian silently and pour tea for us from time to time.

Wei Yi knew the situation and pressed Zheng Xian's shoulders and rubbed his head, hoping to ease his anger.

I've already drunk seven or eight cups of tea, and Zheng Xian hasn't ordered any food yet. I'm so hungry that my stomach is growling, so I have to ask the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, can you give us something to eat? I'm so hungry."

The shopkeeper glanced at Zheng Xian. Zheng Xian didn't say anything, so the shopkeeper had to take it as his consent. He bowed to me and said, "Yes, I will prepare food for you right away."

After the shopkeeper left, I poured tea for Zheng Xian and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know why you are angry, but there is always a way to solve everything. If you keep holding your anger in your heart, you will hurt yourself. The person who made you angry has not been punished yet, but you are so angry that you are dying. Why do you embarrass yourself like this?"

Zheng Xian smiled coldly and said, "You are right. The person who made me angry is still alive. Why should I make things difficult for myself?"
