After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray
Chapter 433 Who is the head coach?
Zheng Xian was originally a very frugal person and always opposed extravagance and waste. Normally, he would have no more than six dishes for breakfast. But because I was there, the table was filled with all kinds of cakes, porridge, noodles, and side dishes.
Wei Yi first tested each dish for poison with a silver needle, and then served Zheng Xian a bowl of red ginseng and mutton soup.
Zheng Xian took a sip of the red ginseng and mutton soup, frowned, and said, "It's really hard to swallow such a greasy soup so early in the morning."
When I heard that, I quickly said, "If you don't drink it, give it to me, don't waste it."
Zheng Xian saw that the food in my bowl had already piled up like a mountain, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "You eat so much at every meal, where do you put all the food?"
I stuffed a crystal dumpling into my mouth, chewed it, and said vaguely, "Of course it went into my stomach."
I quickly finished the snacks in the bowl and filled it with another bowl of shredded chicken noodles.
The snow-white handmade noodles are nestled in the golden chicken soup and sprinkled with green chopped green onions. The fragrance is refreshing and every bite is a pleasure.
Zheng Xian had no appetite at first, but when he saw me eating with my mouth full of oil and big mouthfuls of food, he thought it smelled so good that he couldn't help but drink half a bowl of porridge more. Wei Yi was so happy that he almost cried.
After breakfast, Zheng Xian didn't want to keep me. I touched my round belly and went back to the room that had been prepared for me. Just as I was about to go to sleep, He Wan'er came over carrying the Ninth Prince.
Seeing that I was already lying on the bed, He Wan'er didn't feel embarrassed at all. She walked to my bed with a smile and said, "Ah Man, look, His Highness the Ninth Prince is awake. He has big, watery eyes. He looks so adorable."
My eyelids were almost unable to open, and I said vaguely, "I'm so sleepy, you take the Ninth Prince back to your room to play first, I'll come to play with you guys after I wake up."
Before I could finish, I fell into a deep sleep.
He Wan'er was about to speak, but she heard me snoring. She couldn't help but chuckle and said, "You fall asleep quickly, girl."
Just as He Wan'er finished speaking, she saw the Ninth Prince actually smiling at her, revealing a small pearly tooth.
He Wan'er's heart was about to melt. She gently kissed the Ninth Prince and said, "How can you be so cute?"
Seeing that I fell asleep, He Wan'er didn't want to stay in the room any longer. She carried the Ninth Prince out and left with her personal maid to harm me.
As He Wan'er walked out of my room, she saw Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng walking towards her in a hurry.
Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng were dusty, with messy hair and dirty clothes. It seemed that they had rushed into the palace to meet the emperor without even having time to go home to wash.
When Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng saw He Wan'er, they hurried forward to pay their respects.
He Wan'er smiled and said, "You two adults, please don't be polite. Ah Man just fell asleep, so you two adults should speak softly and don't wake her up."
Gongsun Wen's eyes, which were originally a little dull, immediately brightened up when he heard that I was here, and asked, "When will Ah Man enter the palace?"
He Wan'er said, "I entered the palace yesterday, but the Crown Prince, Imperial Physician Sun, and Ah Man were all busy in Your Majesty's room all night, and everyone just left this morning."
Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng looked at each other, as if they had grasped some extraordinary information.
Du Changfeng's complexion was the same as Gongsun Wen's, blue and white, with an untidy beard, and it looked like he hadn't slept for several days.
Du Changfeng licked his dry lips and said, "Master Gongsun, His Majesty is not feeling well. Should we still come to see him?"
Gongsun Wen blinked and said, "Yes, of course I will."
After Gongsun Wen finished speaking, he bowed to He Wan'er and strode towards the imperial study.
He Wan'er looked at the backs of Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng, gently shook His Highness the Ninth, and said with a twitch of her lips, "I'm afraid the situation in the capital is about to change."
Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng walked to the imperial study and saw Wei Yi coming out with an empty medicine bowl. Wei Yi was shocked to see Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng and blurted out, "Master Gongsun and General Du are back?"
Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng nodded at the same time. Du Changfeng said, "Chief Steward Wei, we are back. Please go in and tell them."
Wei Yi quickly handed the tray in his hand to the guard at the door, turned around and went in to report.
After drinking the medicine, Zheng Xian felt a little tired. He was about to go back to his room to rest for a while, but Wei Yi came in and said that Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng had returned and were waiting outside the door. Zheng Xian had no choice but to sit down again and said, "Hurry up and pass it on."
Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng walked in and knelt on the ground to salute.
Zheng Xian quickly offered him a seat.
Zheng Xian saw that Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng both looked unwell. One of Gongsun Wen's arms was still wrapped in a thick bandage. He couldn't help but frown and asked, "Will this trip go smoothly?"
Gongsun Wen replied: "Your Majesty, it is going well."
When Zheng Xian heard this, he immediately became happy and said, "Zi Yan, tell me quickly."
Gongsun Wen said: "The 330,000 rebels are hiding in several fishing villages along the river. Most of them have already had children, and the population is large and the relationships are complicated. They are also colluding with the local government to cover up their true identities. Fortunately, we did not alert the local government before we set out, otherwise if the news leaked out, I am afraid those people would have escaped long ago.
When our army arrived, we did not enter the city, but camped thirty miles outside the city. That night, General Du and I led about a hundred people into the city and killed the dog officials in the government office. Then we put the officers and soldiers who refused to obey into prison, and sent those who were willing to obey to lure the army to lead the charge. These fishing villages are quite far apart, so we adopted the method of partition and encirclement, dealing with one village first and then the next. Later, it turned out that this method was not only effective and fast, but also minimized the casualties of our army. Although we won a great victory in the suppression of the army, we also accidentally killed many old, young and weak people. I feel guilty and I apologize to Your Majesty. "
Zheng Xian nodded with satisfaction and said, "Zi Yan, you don't need to blame yourself. Not only are you innocent, you have also made great contributions. Those old, young and weak are the relatives of the rebels. You killed those rebels, and their relatives will naturally fight you. Although they are unarmed and died innocently, they will definitely come to avenge me in the future. Keeping them alive will also be a disaster. Now kill them together and save me a lot of trouble.
Your battle plan this time is excellent, no wonder you won the victory so quickly and returned to the court. Who will be the commander-in-chief of this battle? I will definitely reward you handsomely. "
Seeing that Gongsun Wen did not say anything, Du Changfeng quickly clasped his hands and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, this battle was led by Lord Gongsun. Lord Gongsun is a man of outstanding literary and military skills. His ideas came one after another, which allowed him to catch the enemy by surprise and win the victory in the shortest possible time."
Zheng Xian laughed loudly and said, "I thought Zi Yan was only going to be a military advisor this time, but I didn't expect him to be the commander-in-chief and return with a great victory. I like him very much, very much."
