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

Zheng Xian walked past me proudly, walked to the large desk, sat down naturally, picked up a bowl of milk soup and drank it slowly, then said to me slowly: "Why are you staring at me?"

Looking at his serious attitude, I wanted to laugh but I held it back.

I complimented him, "Your Majesty looks so handsome today."

Zheng Xian paused, but asked back without changing his expression, "When am I not handsome?"

I finally couldn't help laughing, and I laughed out loud a few times, which hurt my lung injury, and I couldn't help but lower my head and cough.

Yingchun, who was standing aside, hurried over to help me with my back.

Zheng Xian put down the milk soup and frowned, "It's been half a month, why hasn't Ah Man's injury recovered yet?"

Wei Yi thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, Ah Man is much better now. She walked here by herself today and did not take a wheelbarrow."

When Zheng Xian heard this, he immediately became happy again and said, "It's really much better now that I can walk on my own."

After Zheng Xian finished speaking, he quickly ate his breakfast, stood up, and said to me: "Today I will go to the altar on the city tower to offer sacrifices. You must eat well and take medicine well in the palace. When I come back, I will pack you some drunken fish from Wangyue Tower. Now that you are so badly injured, don't walk around casually, lest you tear the wound."

After Zheng Xian finished speaking, he shook the hem of his robe. Wei Yi quickly took out a black fox robe and put it on him, and then the two of them left in a hurry.

I looked at the hurried back, and then looked at the handkerchief used to cover his mouth, it was covered in blood!

When Yingchun saw the handkerchief, tears fell from her eyes and she choked up and said, "Second Young Master, you didn't tell His Majesty the true condition of your illness."

I interrupted, "What is there to say? I am a martial artist. Even if my lungs are injured, they will heal quickly. Don't worry."

Yingchun looked at me with tears in her eyes. She knew that things were not that simple, but I didn't allow her to tell anyone, and she didn't dare to say anything.

I stayed in the imperial study until lunch time, but Zheng Xian had not returned yet.

I went back to my room, had lunch, read for a while, felt sleepy, so I lay down and rested for a while.

At this moment, there was a noisy noise coming from outside the house. This situation was extremely rare in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. I hurriedly asked Yingchun to go out to find out the news.

Not long after Yingchun went out, she came in holding the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince is already eight or nine months old. He Wan'er has taken great care of him during these past few months. He is as delicate and graceful as a piece of jade, with two big, blinking eyes, and is extremely adorable.

When the Ninth Prince saw me, he actually jumped onto my bed.

Yingchun couldn't even hold the ninth prince. Just as she put him on the bed, he actually crawled into my quilt, stayed next to me, murmured a few words in "baby language", and soon fell into a deep sleep.

I touched the Ninth Prince's face, which was icy cold. I quickly tucked in the quilt and wrapped him tighter, then asked Yingchun, "What's going on?"

Yingchun was afraid that I would blame her, but when she saw how caring I was for the Ninth Prince, she heaved a sigh of relief and said, "During the sacrificial ceremony held on the tower today, someone actually wanted to assassinate Your Majesty. In order to save Your Majesty, Concubine He blocked an arrow for Your Majesty. The person was just sent back to the palace, and the Ninth Prince, who had been following Concubine He, was also sent back. However, Concubine He is now in a coma, and there is no one to take care of the Ninth Prince, so I brought the Ninth Prince here. I didn't expect that."

Yingchun glanced at me secretly, and seeing that I was not angry, she continued, "I didn't expect that the Ninth Prince would crawl into the Second Young Master's bed."

I said softly, "It's okay. I guess the Ninth Prince was freezing outside. Once he saw the bed, he naturally wanted to get inside. Now that Imperial Concubine He is injured, I'm afraid she won't be able to take care of the Ninth Prince. Let's leave the Ninth Prince here and wait until Imperial Concubine He wakes up."

Yingchun bowed and replied, "Yes, Second Young Master."

I looked outside the door and asked, "Isn't His Majesty back yet?"

Yingchun shook her head and said, "I never saw His Majesty. Only Concubine He was sent back covered in blood."

I was very sleepy, so I said, "Please keep an eye on the situation next door. If there is anyone who needs help, go and help. I'll take a nap first."

Yingchun came over and lowered the curtain for me, and said softly, "Yes, Second Young Master."

I slept very deeply. When I woke up, the lights were on in the room and the Ninth Prince was no longer around.

I shouted "Yingchun", but no one responded.

I sat up and got out of bed. Yingchun was not in the room.

I dragged my injured legs and slowly moved out. As soon as I reached the door, I saw Yingchun coming towards me with a food basket.

Yingchun was startled when she saw me standing at the door. She quickened her pace and walked over to me. She held my hand and asked, "Where are you going, Second Young Master?"

My legs were aching badly, and my lungs were aching like needles. I suppressed the urge to cough and said, "I saw you were not in the room, so I wanted to go out and look for you."

Yingchun helped me into the house, asked me to sit on a chair, and put the food basket on the table. She took out the food from the basket and said, "I just went to the imperial kitchen to get food."

I covered my chest and coughed a few times, saying, "Don't people usually bring food here? Why do you have to go get it yourself today?"

Yingchun looked at me with a strange expression. After a long while, she said, "The queen has passed away. You slept so soundly that you didn't even hear the funeral bell."

"Ah? The empress passed away?" I was really shocked when I heard the news.

Yingchun nodded and said, "Everyone has to go to Jinxiu Palace to keep vigil, so only a few people are left in the imperial kitchen to be on duty, and the rest have gone to Jinxiu Palace."

No wonder the Hall of Supreme Harmony was so quiet. I guess Zheng Xian also went to the Jinxiu Hall.

So many things happened today, and I guess it's a mess inside and outside the palace. I'm really unlucky that I missed such a lively moment.

I was secretly feeling annoyed when Gongsun Wen strode in from outside the door.

When I saw Gongsun Wen, I was stunned and asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"

Gongsun Wen sat down next to me and said to Yingchun, "Hurry up and serve me some rice. I haven't eaten for a day and I'm starving."

Fortunately, there were several extra sets of bowls and chopsticks in the food basket. Yingchun quickly took out a set of bowls and chopsticks and served Gongsun Wen a full bowl of rice.

Gongsun Wen picked it up and ate it in big mouthfuls, not even bothering to talk to me.

The two of us ate in silence. Before I finished my bowl of rice, Gongsun Wen had already finished two bowls. After he was full, Gongsun Wen put down his bowl and chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a towel, and said, "I'm leaving now. The queen has passed away. You are not in good health and cannot go to the vigil, so don't run around. If people see you, they will gossip about you."

After Gongsun Wen finished speaking, he stood up and strode away.

Looking at the impetuous Gongsun Wen, I glanced at Yingchun and asked, "How is Concubine He?"
