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

Zhao Fangping also had to escort the spirit to the imperial mausoleum, and could only return after Zheng Xian was buried. When she got on the carriage, she looked back at me. I was standing in front of the palace gate in plain clothes, with no makeup on my face, no jewelry on my head, and just a simple bun. But despite being so plainly dressed, my stunning face was still like the bright moon in the sky, emitting light and attracting everyone's attention.

Zhao Yan clenched his fists, suppressed the hatred in his eyes, turned around and got on the carriage.

I waited at the palace gate until everyone had left before I turned around and entered.

The weather today was not very good, it was overcast and it looked like a rainstorm was about to come. If you rode fast from the imperial city to the imperial mausoleum, you could reach it in half a day, but this was a funeral procession, so it would move very slowly, and with the women and relatives, it would take at least two to three days to get there.

The death of the emperor was a great mourning, and there were many ceremonies to be performed at the imperial mausoleum. It would take at least twenty days for the group to return to Beijing. Thinking that there were only Concubine Gui and I left in this huge palace, I felt an inexplicable sadness in my heart.

Just now, I watched the coffin go away at the palace gate, knowing that Zheng Xian and I would never see each other again in this life. Sorrow had already filled my heart. When I turned and entered the palace gate, I could no longer hold back and burst into tears with my face covered.

I looked up to the sky and cried without any manner whatsoever.

I cried like this on the day of my grandmother's funeral, but Zheng Xian suddenly appeared in front of me that day, hugged me and told me not to be afraid, he was like a mountain, shielding me from all the wind and rain. But now the person who shielded me from the wind and rain is gone, and I really have to walk the road ahead alone.

The four Black Feather Army guards who escorted me looked at each other in bewilderment. They were just guards, not a caring maid like Yingchun who could comfort people. It was the first time for them to see the dignified concubine crying without caring about etiquette. There was a hierarchy, so they didn't even dare to say words of comfort.

I just walked and cried, but luckily not long after I walked, Yang and Yingchun came to pick me up in a carriage.

The ones driving the carriage were the Ling brothers. They saw me from afar because I was the only one walking on the straight and spacious palace road with four guards, and I was crying as I walked. The sound of my crying could be heard from far away.

At this time, Yang and Yingchun also heard my crying, thinking that something had happened to me. They were so scared that they kept urging the Ling brothers to whip their horses faster. The Ling brothers almost whipped their horses until smoking.

Soon the carriage arrived in front of me. Fortunately, the Ling brothers pulled the reins urgently, otherwise the carriage would have been running too fast and would have hit me.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Yingchun and Yang jumped off the carriage and hurried over to me. They looked me up and down several times and asked anxiously, "Madam, what's wrong with you?"

I didn't care about the tears and snot on my face, and cried, "The emperor didn't keep his word. He said he would protect me forever, but now he has left me alone."

Yang's...

Welcome Spring...

Four guards...

Yang gave Yingchun a look, and two of them quickly supported me on each side and forced me onto the carriage.

As these two people were pulling me away, I was still thinking: My Queen, please say less such outrageous words, or else people will lose their heads if they hear them.

After Yang and Yingchun brought me back to Shengping Palace, I developed a high fever and started talking nonsense. The imperial physician came to see me several times and I took medicine several times, but the high fever wouldn't go away. Finally, the imperial physician diagnosed me with depression and prescribed some depression-relieving and liver-soothing medicines. After I took them, my symptoms gradually improved.

I was recuperating in the palace, and Yiping came to see me several times and brought me a lot of food. Knowing that I was feeling bad, he also brought me a lot of storybooks to cheer me up.

When I was almost recovered from my illness, more than twenty days had passed and news came from the imperial mausoleum that Zheng Yan and others were about to return to Beijing.

I asked Gongsun Wen to build the school and the medical clinic, and Steward Bao also sent someone to deliver a message saying that the land procedures had been completed, but due to the great funeral, no weddings were allowed in the entire capital, and no construction was allowed. Construction could only begin after a hundred days.

I'm not in a hurry. Let's just wait a hundred days. It will probably be completed next year.

That day I was playing with the little fox in the garden when the old nanny beside Concubine Gui came to tell me to go to the Laurel Palace to meet her.

Concubine Gui and I have never had any contact before, and she suddenly sent someone to tell me to meet her. No matter how I think about it, it can't be a good thing.

The maid who was sent to deliver the message was named Sun. Everyone called her Maid Sun. She held a very high position in the palace, and it seemed as if she was looked down upon by everyone except the Laurel Palace.

The young palace maid led Nanny Sun to me, and she only bowed to me lightly, squinting her eyes and said, "Your Highness is a new bride, but you have never served tea to our Queen. Our Queen is kind and will not hold it against you, but you must not be unruly. Now our Queen has sent me to invite you to the palace to have tea. Please come with me."

After Zheng Xian's death, I have been in a bad mood, but I just haven't found an outlet to vent my anger. I didn't expect that someone would come to my doorstep to let me vent my anger. It's really great.

I picked up the little fox and put it in Yingchun's arms, saying, "The child is still young, we can't let it see such violence and blood. Take it back to the house quickly."

Yingchun took Xiaoli in confusion, and before she turned around to leave, she saw me slapping Nanny Sun hard in the face. Nanny Sun was slapped so hard that she turned several times, a tooth was knocked out, and half of her face immediately swelled up.

Nanny Sun screamed in pain, covered her face and looked at me in disbelief, saying fiercely: "You, you actually hit me?"

As soon as Nanny Sun finished speaking, I slapped her again. The other side of her face immediately became swollen, and she cried in pain.

I clapped my hands and said, "These two slaps are for you not knowing even the most basic palace rules. I didn't serve tea last time because His Majesty allowed it. Now that the emperor has just passed away, your queen wants to make trouble, right? My current status is equivalent to that of your queen, why should I serve tea to her? Is your brain pushed by a pig? Master Gui is now hiding here and there like a stray dog. His Majesty has already shown mercy by not causing trouble for your palace. How dare you come out and seek a sense of existence? Since you like to seek a sense of existence so much, I will grant your wish!"

Before I could finish my words, I punched Nanny Sun in the stomach. Nanny Sun screamed in pain and stumbled back several steps. She lost her balance and fell to the ground, screaming like a pig being slaughtered.

Looking at Nanny Sun whose face was twisted with pain, Yingchun silently covered Xiaoli's eyes. Such a bloody and violent scene was indeed not suitable for a kitten to watch, lest it teach the child bad lessons.
