After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray
Chapter 530: Regent
When these people heard this, they became even more panicked.
They just wanted to take people hostage, but they didn't expect to hit a wall.
These people had long lost their previous thoughts. When they saw me, they were as scared as if they had seen a female ghost. Their hair stood on end. When the night wind blew, they could only feel their hair tingling.
Every time I took a step forward, these people took a few steps back. Every time I took a step forward, they took a step back.
I smiled and said, "Come on, don't you want to catch me? Come on and catch me."
My face was pale, I was wearing white clothes, and my hair was long and fluttering, making me look more like a female ghost.
These people have done a lot of bad things in their daily lives. They are not afraid of people, but only of ghosts. When they saw me like this, they were scared to death.
One of the sturdy men said in a trembling voice: "Let's run quickly, this woman is a bit weird."
The others immediately agreed, saying, "Yes, yes, yes, I always feel that this place is gloomy and it doesn't look like a place where people live. Let's go quickly. It's very chaotic outside now. Who knows, we can escape in the chaos."
"Yes, there are several of us, but there is only one woman here. If we run separately, she will definitely not be able to catch up with us."
As these people talked, they retreated towards the wall.
The walls of these palaces are very high, and it is not easy to climb over them even with great martial arts skills. However, there is a row of tall trees next to the wall of Shengping Palace, which is just convenient for these thieves to climb in with grappling ropes.
If I am still alive, I will have someone cut down all these trees to prevent them from harming me.
As I thought angrily, I approached those strong men with the axe in hand.
In fact, I was also extremely panicked inside, but the more panicked I was, the calmer my face looked. This was all thanks to the fake facial paralysis I developed from studying medicine.
After discussing it out, these strong men immediately fled in different directions.
Suddenly, flames appeared on the top of the wall, and a row of archers suddenly appeared on the top of the wall. Only a few "swoosh" sounds were heard, and the fleeing strong men were shot into hedgehogs in an instant. They fell to the ground and died before they could even utter a scream!
As soon as these strong men fell down, I couldn't hold on any longer. My eyes went dark and I spat out a mouthful of blood. My body swayed and I was about to fall down. Hua Wushuang, who had just climbed over the wall, was so scared that he stepped lightly and came to my side in a few jumps and held me up.
Once again, I saw Hua Wushuang, wearing silver-white armor and holding a silver spear, appear in front of me like a god.
Seeing Hua Wushuang, the tension in my body suddenly relaxed, and I panted and said, "It's great to see you!"
Hua Wushuang was terrified when he saw me like this, and shouted, "Aman, I'm sorry, I'm late. Lord Gongsun asked me to save you, but there were too many rebels outside, so I was delayed for some time. Aman, don't sleep, I'll ask someone to get the imperial physician right away, Aman, you have to hold on..."
I couldn't hear what Hua Wushuang was still mumbling because I was completely unconscious.
I slept for the entire day and when I woke up it was already the second evening.
The symptoms of chest pain and stuffiness are still there, but the symptoms of headache and dizziness are gone.
There were a circle of imperial physicians surrounding the bed, and Gongsun Wen was sitting beside them with a gloomy face, looking as if a storm was about to come.
When they saw that I woke up, all the doctors breathed a sigh of relief and secretly wiped the sweat from their heads.
Gongsun Wen's white robe was stained with blood, his hair was a little messy, and there were dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he had not had a good rest for a long time.
He has stomach problems and has to keep vigil in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, so why did he come to my hall?
Gongsun Wen heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that I was awake. He stood up and said to me, "You should take good care of yourself. I have to go back to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to keep vigil. I won't have time to visit you before the funeral. If you have anything to say, please send someone to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to tell me."
I nodded, but suddenly it occurred to me that as Zheng Xian's concubine, shouldn't I also go to keep vigil?
Before I could say anything, Gongsun Wen said, "You are not feeling well. His Majesty has allowed you to recuperate in the palace. You do not need to observe mourning in the palace. When the funeral is held, you can just go and escort the coffin."
After Gongsun Wen finished speaking, he turned around and said to the imperial doctors, "Take good care of Empress Dowager Shu. If anything goes wrong, you will be the ones to be held responsible."
"Yes, Prince Ming." The imperial doctors shouted in unison.
Prince Ming?
Gongsun Wen was made king?
I looked at Gongsun Wen in confusion.
Gongsun Wen seemed to understand my expression and said succinctly, "Before the death of the Supreme Emperor, he appointed me as the regent king, named Ming Wang, to assist the new emperor in governing the country."
I couldn’t say congratulations at this time, so I could only say, “Thank you for sending Wushuang to rescue me.”
Gongsun Wen's face darkened after hearing this, and he said with a little regret: "I thought Qingniao was still with you, but I didn't expect you to send her to protect the Empress Dowager. If I had known that you had no one to protect you, I would have arranged for someone in advance, and you wouldn't have encountered this accident."
I thought about it and said, "In fact, you already understood the purpose of the emperor giving the black feather talisman, right?"
Gongsun Wen nodded without any concealment.
I secretly sighed and said, "I should have guessed it earlier."
At first I thought Zheng Xian gave the Black Feather Talisman to Gongsun Wen in order to save his life, but I never imagined that the Black Feather Talisman was to allow Gongsun Wen to mobilize troops to attack and suppress the rebels from both inside and outside.
I don't know if I'm a fool or not, but I know that Zheng Xian played his cards right before his death. He first used my unwillingness to suffer any loss to anger Zheng Hao, and then used me to send the Black Feather Talisman to Gongsun Wen, making sure that Gongsun Wen would not refuse my request and would accept the Black Feather Talisman. He then attacked from both inside and outside, unless Zheng Hao did not rebel. As long as he rebelled, he would have no chance of returning.
The fact that Zheng Hao was able to gather so many rebels in such a short time was definitely due to Grand Tutor Gui. Zheng Xian's strategy of killing two birds with one stone completely sent the rebellious Zheng Hao and Grand Tutor Gui to hell. This time, Grand Tutor Gui might not be able to escape his fate.
Gongsun Wen saw that I didn't look very well, so he said, "You should take good care of yourself. Don't think too much about other things. Get well first. I have arranged for the Black Feather Army to guard this palace. No one can hurt you in the future."
The Black Feather Army only obeys orders from those who have the Black Feather Order. Even the emperor cannot mobilize them. Gongsun Wen asked the Black Feather Army to protect me. Now even Zheng Yan can't touch me at all.
Gongsun Wen paused for a moment, then continued, "How do you want to deal with the maids and eunuchs in your palace?"
A servant who can betray his master must not be kept. No matter how kind I am, I can't live in the same house with someone who has stabbed me in the back.
I thought about it and said, "Let's change a group of people who can be loyal to the Lord."
Gongsun Wen nodded and said, "I understand. I'll ask someone to arrange it."
After Gongsun Wen finished speaking, he reprimanded the imperial doctors for a few more words before leaving.
After Gongsun Wen left, Yang came in holding Zheng Xi and Yingchun.
As soon as Zheng Xi saw me, he wanted to pounce on me.
Yang had no choice but to put him next to my bed and watched him holding my hand and acting coquettishly.
I touched Zheng Xi's head with my hand and asked, "Are Ling Zhi and Ling Yun still not back? And what about Fu Yao? How is the situation in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and the Empress Dowager?"
Yang looked at the imperial doctors behind her and didn't dare to speak.
