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

Gongsun Wen's face did not show the joy after being praised by Zheng Xian. Instead, it became gloomy and uncertain. If a person's achievements are too great, they may become mistakes. Now the prince has not yet succeeded to the throne, and the king is frail and sickly. If someone with ulterior motives finds out his identity and deliberately spreads the rumor that he wants to seize the throne, he will end up being cut into pieces.

Gongsun Wen stood up and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. These strategies were all formulated by Your Majesty before the expedition. I have no credit for them. On the contrary, General Du is a good minister who is thoughtful and brave in battle. He is the one who deserves praise."

Zheng Xian immediately understood Gongsun Wen's idea, his eyes rolled, and then he smiled and said, "Zi Yan is right, Yuan Zheng did make great contributions in this battle. I will record your contributions for now, we still have a tough battle to fight, and I will reward you after this tough battle is over."

Du Changfeng also stood up quickly after hearing this, bowed to Zheng Xian and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zheng Xian saw that both of them looked unhappy, so he waved his hand and said, "Go back and have a good rest for a day, and come to the palace tomorrow to discuss how to fight the next tough battle. Today is the twenty-seventh day of the lunar year, and I'm afraid this year will not be a good one. Yuanzheng, starting today, the whole city is under martial law, and more people are secretly sent outside the city. Not even a fly is allowed to fly in. Patrols are strengthened inside the city, and anyone who disobeys the order will be killed without mercy."

"Yes, sir!" Du Changfeng responded quickly.

Zheng Xian thought about it, then suddenly smiled and said, "Let Ah Man do something naughty again tonight. I believe there will be a surprise."

After hearing this, Gongsun Wen's face became even more tense. Du Changfeng looked at Zheng Xian in confusion, but Zheng Xian did not explain it to him. He just waved his hand and signaled them to leave quickly.

Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng left the imperial study. Du Changfeng wanted to go home, but Gongsun Wen wanted to stay and see me, so the two of them clasped their fists and said goodbye.

I was still sleeping soundly, and Gongsun Wen had nowhere to go, so he went to the East Palace to find the prince.

After Gongsun Wen and Du Changfeng left, Zheng Xian looked at the pile of memorials and secret reports on his desk, sighed, and said, "When can I hand all these matters over to the Crown Prince? I am really too tired."

Wei Yi lowered his head and didn't dare to answer.

Zheng Xian did not intend to ask Wei Yi to reply, and continued to talk to himself: "Chang Guang made a brilliant move. With Madam Zhao dead, he can completely cut off the connection with the Gui family. Even if the Gui family committed treason, he would not be implicated. But I really can't imagine that Chang Guang could be so cruel that he personally killed his wife and his son of unknown origin without any hesitation. It is said that Ah Man was also present that day. Little Wei Zi, do you think Ah Man was involved in this?"

Wei Yi's forehead was sweating when he heard this, and he thought to himself: "Your Majesty, don't you already have the answer? Why are you still asking me? No matter how I answer, it's a dead end question that's thankless."

Zheng Xian did not wait for Wei Yi to answer, and continued: "I think Ah Man's intervention must have been missing, because with Ah Man, everything has changed. Ah Man is a person who bears grudges, but also a person who knows how to be grateful. She knows right from wrong very well. Those who offend her will not have a good end, and those who help her will surely have good luck. Little Wei Zi, how can I bear to let such a lucky person leave me?"

Zheng Xian seemed to be asking Wei Yi, but he knew the answers to all the questions, so Wei Yi had to remain silent and dared not say a word.

Zheng Xian took a sip of the snow lotus soup and asked, "What is Ah Man doing now?"

Wei Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Majesty, Ah Man went back to his room to rest after breakfast."

Zheng Xian finished the snow lotus soup in his bowl, put it down, and said, "A'man, you did your best to cure my poison last night. Go to my storehouse and pick out some top-quality supplements and some banknotes to send to the general's mansion. Tell him that Changguang has worked hard to share my worries, and now he has lost his beloved wife and is bedridden. I feel deeply sorry. If Changguang has someone he likes, I am willing to arrange a marriage for him."

After hearing this, Wei Yi looked at Zheng Xian in confusion. Isn't this talking about Ah Man? Why did he transfer the reward to General Zhao? Your Majesty, please forgive me for my lack of brain power. I can't keep up with your jumping thoughts at all.

Zheng Xian saw Wei Yi still standing there stupidly, and said unhappily, "Why are you still standing there? Do you want me to go there myself?"

Wei Yi was so frightened that he shuddered and said immediately, "Your Majesty, I dare not do that. I will go right away."

After Wei Yi finished speaking, he turned around and left, not daring to stay for a moment.

After Wei Yi left, Zheng Xian waved his hand and a secret guard floated in front of him. Zheng Xian asked, "Is there any movement from Xiao Wu?"

The secret guard clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince and Concubine Yang are living peacefully in their own palace."

Zheng Xian raised his lips slightly and said, "How can we keep such an active person at peace? Tell him some news he likes to hear, and let him jump around a bit, don't stop."

The secret guard shuddered slightly, saluted towards Zheng Xian, and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

After the secret guard finished speaking, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Although Zheng Xian had just recovered from the poison and was still weak, he met many people, both openly and secretly, and issued many orders that day. The imperial study was bustling with people coming and going.

Just as he said, he was very busy and had no time to care about such a trivial matter as my request to go to the border.

When I woke up, it was already afternoon and the sun was setting.

I was so sleepy that I didn't know where I was when I woke up. I called out in confusion, "Mom, what time is it now?"

As soon as I finished shouting, a little palace maid came to my bed and whispered, "My lord, are you awake?"

I suddenly opened my eyes and remembered that this was not my original home. I had no home for a long time.

I struggled to sit up, rubbed my eyes, and asked, "What time is it now?"

The little palace maid quickly brought me clothes and helped me put them on, saying, "It is already the afternoon."

The Shen time is around four or five in the afternoon. I didn’t expect that I had slept for almost a whole day.

I got dressed and got out of bed. I touched my rumbling stomach and said, "I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat?"

The little maid held the comb and said, "Sir, please let me comb your hair first, and then I will get you food."

I had no choice but to sit on the stool and let the little palace maid comb my hair.

After combing my hair, the little palace maid helped me wash up briefly and then went out to get me food.

After the maid left, I got bored waiting, so I walked to the desk and picked up a book to read. I had just turned a few pages when the announcement of the arrival of "Princess Mingzhu" came from the door.

I looked up and saw Mingzhu walking in with a smile on her face.

Mingzhu walked up to me and said with a smile, "I rushed to see you as soon as I learned that you entered the palace. Isn't that nice of you?"

I put down the book in my hand and said slowly, "Do you know what kind of person I am?"
