After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray
Chapter 514 Departure
As for the reason, Zhao Zhenyuan probably knew a little about it. Ah Man forcibly transferred his internal energy to himself, which was probably the same as pulling out his tendons and bones. It might have hurt his vitality and spirit, and he probably wouldn't be able to recover for a while.
But Zhao Zhenyuan didn't dare to tell Zheng Xian that Ah Man fell into a coma because of him. He had such a deep inner strength, which was a huge threat to Zheng Xian. As a person, Zheng Xian would never allow any hidden dangers to stay around him.
Zhao Zhenyuan said, "Your Majesty, I still want to go see Ah Man. What I am most worried about when I am away is my daughter. Ah Man was seriously injured because she saved me."
Zheng Xian waved his hand and said, "Changguang, don't blame yourself. Ah Man's injury has nothing to do with you. Zi Yan said that when they left Beijing, Master Hui Jing told him that Ah Man was related to Dayu's national destiny. She couldn't leave Beijing for too long, otherwise her body would become weak due to the loss of the nourishment of the national destiny. If it wasn't for saving you, I would never let Ah Man leave Beijing. Now that you have returned safely, it can be regarded as putting my mind at ease. Don't worry, Changguang, I will definitely find the best medicinal herbs in the world to nourish Ah Man and let her wake up soon."
Now Zhao Zhenyuan didn't dare to tell anyone that Ah Man passed on his inner strength to him, so he just let it go.
The king and his minister chatted for a while before Zheng Xian asked Wei Yi to take Zhao Zhenyuan to A'man's house.
At this time, Ah Man was lying quietly on the bed. There was almost no blood on his face, which was so white that it was almost transparent, and the capillaries under the skin could be clearly seen.
Yingchun was holding a basin of hot water and was carefully wiping Ah Man's face. After wiping her face and while she was wiping her hands, Zhao Zhenyuan walked in.
When Yingchun saw Zhao Zhenyuan, she quickly stood up and saluted. Zhao Zhenyuan waved his hand, and Yingchun wisely walked out with the hot water.
Zhao Zhenyuan sat beside the bed and looked at Ah Man quietly. It was hard to believe that his lively daughter had been lying in bed for more than a month.
Zhao Zhenyuan sighed, gently pulled my hand out of the quilt, closed his eyes, and concentrated his mind to transfer his internal force back to me. However, there seemed to be a resistance in my body that was blocking the transmission of internal force. Zhao Zhenyuan tried many times but was unable to transfer his internal force back to me.
Zhao Zhenyuan was sweating profusely, but he still couldn't use any internal energy. Finally, Zhao Zhenyuan had to give up. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said helplessly: "Aman, Daddy should go to the border soon and can't wait for you to wake up. Daddy originally promised to take you to the border, but now it seems that Daddy has to break his promise again. Promise Daddy that you will get better. There is a kind of fruit in Xihe, the skin is as red as blood, but the flesh is as white as snow, very sweet and delicious. Daddy must flatten Xihe, find this fruit and bring it back to the capital for you to taste."
Zhao Zhenyuan stayed in my room for about half an hour, chattering away like an ordinary father, explaining everything in detail, fearing that I would starve. He completely ignored the fact that I was now a vegetable and could not hear anything.
Half an hour later, Wei Yi came to invite him, and Zhao Zhenyuan had to stand up and leave.
Zhao Zhenyuan was invited to the imperial study again. He and Zheng Xian chatted until late at night and left the palace only when it was almost dawn.
Not long after Zhao Zhen left the palace, he ordered the remaining cavalry to be gathered to march to the border in three days.
During these three days, Zhao Zhenyuan always found time to come to the palace to see me, sit by my bed and talk. Sometimes he would tell me some interesting military stories. If there was really nothing to talk about, he would tell me about how my elder brother and I used to joke and play tricks in front of our mother when we were children. As he spoke, he would always sigh and say, "It's a pity that your mother died early. If she hadn't died, how great it would have been?"
The three days passed quickly, and Yiping and Jinping both came to see him off.
Yiping prepared a lot of food for Zhao Zhenyuan, and Jinping gave his father a thick stack of articles he wrote. This was a special request from Zhao Zhenyuan, as he wanted to know how his son's academic level was.
The streets were filled with people who came to see them off. Many of them brought eggs, steamed buns, and fruits to give to the soldiers, wishing them to pacify the border as soon as possible and return safely.
Zheng Xian sent Zheng Yan to see him off. Gongsun Wen was seriously injured and had been recuperating in the Taifu Mansion. When Zhao Zhenyuan went to the battlefield, he still came to see him off.
Zhao Zhenyuan looked at Gongsun Wen standing in white at the street corner and couldn't help but stop his horse.
Gongsun Wen held a jug of wine in one hand and a wine glass in the other. When he saw Zhao Zhenyuan stop his horse, he filled the wine glass with wine and handed it to Zhao Zhenyuan, saying, "Marshal Zhao, drink this glass of wine. You will surely have a smooth journey and will be able to pacify the border and return safely soon."
Zhao Zhenyuan laughed loudly, took the wine and drank it all, then threw the glass to the ground, and it shattered with a bang.
Zhao Zhenyuan didn't say anything, but just bowed to Gongsun Wen, then threw the reins and left with his head held high.
Zheng Yan had been following Zhao Zhenyuan closely. After Zhao Zhenyuan smashed his wine glass, he said to Gongsun Wen, "Teacher, you are weak. Go back home and rest early. Don't stay in the street for too long to avoid catching a cold. I have been looking forward to your return to help with government affairs."
Gongsun Wen bowed to Zheng Yan and replied, "Yes, thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
Zheng Yan nodded, without saying much, and rode his horse to chase Zhao Zhenyuan. He would have to send him off at least as far as Shili Pavilion before returning.
Only after the entire marching force had disappeared out of the city gate did Gongsun Wen return to his carriage and head toward the palace.
Since Gongsun Wen was still ill, Zheng Xian was afraid that Gongsun Wen would pass his illness on to me, so he had forbidden Gongsun Wen to visit him. Now Gongsun Wen felt that he was almost well, so he immediately came to the palace to see me.
When Gongsun Wen arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Zheng Xian was in the imperial study listening to Du Changfeng and Hua Wushuang reporting on the casualties of the battle between the two armies.
This matter should have been reported by Zhang Jing in front of the emperor, but Zhang Jing had to go to the border with Zhao Zhenyuan, so the deputy generals Du Changfeng and Hua Wushuang came to report it.
Since the conversation between Zheng Xian and others was confidential, Gongsun Wen could not enter without being summoned, so Gongsun Wen had to go see me first.
Without Zheng Xian's suppression, Gongsun Wen entered my house easily.
Since I became a vegetable, I needed someone to take care of me when I ate, drank, defecated and urinated, so Zheng Xian sent two more palace maids to help. Now Yingchun and the two palace maids were feeding me porridge.
A little palace maid helped me sit down, and another little palace maid was wiping my mouth with a white towel. Yingchun brought a bowl of very thin gravy porridge and fed me mouthful by mouthful.
Since I was unconscious, feeding me was very difficult. Nine out of ten mouthfuls of porridge flowed out from the corners of my mouth. So it took three people working in perfect harmony to feed me a mouthful of porridge.
