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

Zheng Xian finished the last mouthful of soup in his bowl and said, "There is no difference. They are all fish from the frozen underground river in Beixiang State all year round. The only difference is that Wangyue Tower uses black fish weighing about 4 liang to make drunken fish. The black fish you are eating now weighs more than 1 jin. It takes at least 10 years for a black fish to grow to more than 1 jin, but only about 4 liang of fish takes about 3 years. Therefore, the meat of the heavier black fish is firmer and the fragrance is stronger. Naturally, it is more expensive."

You don't need to ask to know that this fish is expensive. I feel like I'm eating money with every bite. Suddenly, I feel that this tender fish meat is not fragrant. The price of a fish can buy a big house in the capital. The thoughts of these rich people are really unfathomable.

Zheng Xian saw that I was frowning more and more as I ate, so he cleared his throat and asked, "Do you want to leave the palace?"

When I heard there was a chance, I immediately raised my head and asked hopefully, "Is it okay?"

"No." Zheng Xian said firmly.

My head suddenly drooped down, looking as if I had lost all desire to live.

Zheng Xian said: "I won't let you leave the palace because it is very dangerous outside the palace, and we are short of manpower now, so we can't find anyone to protect you."

I don't know what Zheng Xian is planning during this period. There are fewer guards in the palace, and I don't know where they have been transferred to. Zhao Zhenyuan has not been seen for more than ten days, and the five thousand cavalry have also disappeared without a trace. Du Changfeng is always in a hurry every time he enters the palace, and leaves immediately after meeting the emperor. He even thinks it is a waste of time to talk to me.

That night in the inn, Zhang San was seriously injured and Li Si was killed. At this time, I was out of the palace, and Zheng Xian had to mobilize people to protect me, which was indeed a bit difficult for him.

I could only say gloomily, "I want to arrange a marriage between General Du and Sister Wushuang. If I don't leave the palace, I'm afraid these two wooden people will never get married."

When Zheng Xian heard that I left the palace for this reason, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, almost crying. After laughing enough, he said, "I see, Ah Man, don't worry, I'll take care of this. I'll let Wushuang and Yuanzheng work together, and they'll naturally develop feelings for each other day and night."

I thought Zheng Xian would directly grant the marriage, but I didn't expect that he would come up with such a bad idea. I said suspiciously: "Sister Wushuang came to Dayu as a guest. If you ask her to work as a clerk, will she agree?"

Zheng Xian said confidently: "If Wushuang wants to understand Yuanzheng's character, working with Yuanzheng is the fastest and most direct way. She will not refuse me."

I didn't expect that Zheng Xian trusted Hua Wushuang. Even I didn't know what Du Changfeng was busy with every day, but he actually let Hua Wushuang and Du Changfeng work together.

Since Zheng Xian had said so, I couldn't disobey him, so I had to say, "I'll trouble your majesty to take care of it."

Zheng Xian was in a good mood. He finished his soup and ate half a bowl of rice. He wiped his mouth with a hot towel and said, "Aman, if you have anything to say, just tell me. I will do everything for you and won't let you worry."

Zheng Xian had said this, so if I mentioned leaving the palace again, it would seem that I was immature, so I said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Ah Man has made a note of it."

Zheng Xian nodded and said, "It's getting late, Ah Man, you should go back to your room and rest."

I could tell from Zheng Xian's tone that he was trying to get rid of me, so I stood up and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, Ah Man will take his leave."

After I left, Zheng Xian's face, which had just been smiling, suddenly turned dark.

Wei Yi walked forward cautiously and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Cheng has been asking for an audience for a long time."

Zheng Xian threw the hot towel on the table, stood up, and said, "Pass it."

I returned to my room and Yingchun brought me hot water to wash my face.

After washing my face, I asked, "Has His Highness the Ninth Prince been sent back to Fengyi Palace?"

After He Wan'er was crowned queen, the palace where she lived was renamed Fengyi Palace.

Yingchun nodded and said, "It was sent back by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself."

I didn’t expect Zheng Yan to be so thoughtful and actually sent the Ninth Prince back personally.

I said to Yingchun, "Take out my wooden box."

After hearing this, Yingchun hurried back to the inner room and took out the wooden box that I asked her to keep.

This wooden box is the one my grandmother left me.

I opened the box and took out the silver bracelet that was said to allow me to travel back in time. I looked at it carefully for a long time, but still couldn't find any switch.

I sighed. I have studied this bracelet countless times, but I still can't find a way to put it back.

I was just sighing when Gongsun Wen walked in.

Gongsun Wen walked over to sit next to me, took a look at the silver bracelet on my hand, and asked, "This silver bracelet looks quite old, where did it come from?"

I sighed deeply and said, "My grandmother left it to me."

Gongsun Wen thought I missed my grandmother, so he was silent for a moment and said, "The dead cannot be resurrected, so don't be too sad. I think your grandmother in heaven wouldn't want to see you so sad."

I threw the silver bracelet into the wooden box, closed the box tightly, and said, "You are right. If you can't figure it out, just forget about it and leave it to fate."

Gongsun Wen was a little confused. Did he have to leave everything to fate just because he missed his grandmother?

Before he could figure it out, I looked at him slyly and asked, "The day I left the palace, you told me that you had someone to marry. Which girl was it?"

Gongsun Wen listened, gave me a cold look, and said in a tone as flat as a pool of stagnant water: "Your Majesty does not agree, and told me not to be wishful thinking. My marriage is ruined, so don't ask me anymore in the future."

I was so shocked that I opened my mouth and couldn't speak. Didn't Zheng Xian always want to arrange a marriage for Gongsun Wen? Why didn't he agree? Which girl did Gongsun Wen want to marry? This made Zheng Xian very unhappy!

I still insisted, "According to your conditions, you can choose any girl in the capital city. You actually picked one that His Majesty doesn't agree with. You have a unique vision. Tell me which girl it is, or I will be too curious to sleep."

Gongsun Wen picked up a book on the table and knocked me on the head, saying, "Shut up! You are so capable of rubbing salt into someone's wound. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

I clicked my tongue a few times and said, "It seems like you really love that girl terribly. You look so heartbroken and hopeless. Anyone who sees you will cry for you."

Gongsun Wen, who had a gloomy face, was amused by me. He stretched out his hand and pinched my face, saying, "Don't talk nonsense. You are so young, and you are not ashamed to say such things."

I touched my face which was pinched and hurt, and said, "There are so many noble ladies in the capital, I really can't imagine that you like that girl. Please, tell me, otherwise I really won't be able to sleep tonight."

Gongsun Wen was annoyed by my noise, so he stood up and said, "I have to accompany the prince tonight to review memorials. I'm leaving now. If you have nothing to do, you should go to bed early and don't read too late."

Gongsun Wen left with his hands behind his back before I could reply.

I looked at Gongsun Wen's back, curled my lips, and said, "With such a bad temper, it's strange that anyone likes you."

Yingchun looked at me, then at the door, and sighed secretly. One is noble and arrogant, and the other is stupid as a pig. It seems that even the flowers cannot bloom, let alone bear fruit.
