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

After hearing what Zheng Yan said, Gongsun Wen had no choice but to say, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will do my best to get things done for the Empress Dowager Shu."

All the people in the team had passed by. Wei saw that it was getting late, so he said, "Your Majesty, it's time to return to the palace."

Zheng Yan nodded and said, "I am tired after such a long journey. Let's go back to the palace."

As soon as Zheng Yan finished speaking, Wei Yi shouted, "Everyone, listen up and return to the palace."

As soon as Wei Yi finished speaking, a row of archers suddenly emerged from the bushes in the distance. "Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh!" Dozens of arrows shot towards us mercilessly!

Everyone present was an expert and they felt the arrow as soon as it was shot, but the arrow was so fast that everyone's first reaction was to protect the person they wanted to protect, and then find a place to hide.

Du Changfeng hugged Hua Wushuang and slid behind my carriage; Zheng Yan and Gongsun Wen reached out to me at the same time, but I pulled Yang to the ground like a loach and rolled directly behind the carriage. Although I was a little embarrassed, I avoided all the arrows perfectly.

Gongsun Wen and Zheng Yan looked at each other's empty arms at the same time, with a hint of embarrassment on their faces, but they quickly realized that escaping was the most important thing. They jumped back lightly, and all the arrows shot into the ground where they had just stood.

When Cheng Dazhi and Wei Yi saw the thief appear, they were not panicked. Instead, there was an inexplicable excitement in their eyes, which was the expression of a fish that had taken the bait.

Both men took out their weapons, and Wei Yi shouted, "Come here, protect the emperor."

Then he and Cheng Dazhi jumped towards the archer at the same time.

When Zheng Yan jumped back, he landed right next to me. He reached out and picked me up. I covered my butt and jumped up and down, saying, "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much."

Zheng Yan said angrily and amusedly: "Since you are injured, you don't have to come out of the city to welcome the emperor. Why did you come?"

Zheng Yan narcissistically thought that I was going out of the city to meet him even though I was injured.

Of course I can't tell you.

I said pitifully, "I haven't seen you for so long, I miss you so I came here."

Zheng Yan touched my head and said, "When you return to the palace, you must rest in the palace and not go anywhere else."

Yang, who was still lying on the ground, struggled to get up. Seeing Zheng Yan caressing my head lovingly, her heart started to ring with alarm. She was about to pull me away to keep a distance from Zheng Yan, but when she turned around, she saw Gongsun Wen standing behind her with a sullen face like a ghost. She shuddered with fear and blurted out, "Ming, when did Prince Ming stand here?"

Gongsun Wen had a gloomy face. He was always cold to outsiders. He just said "hmm" and stopped talking.

At this time, Wei Yi and Cheng Dazhi had already started fighting with the attackers. Zheng Yan also drew his sword and said to Gongsun Wen, "Teacher, protect Ah Man. I will kill those thieves."

Du Changfeng saw Zheng Yan leave, of course he couldn't fall behind, and hurriedly said to Hua Wushuang: "You stay here and wait for me to come back. Now that you are in your advanced stage, don't try to be stubborn."

It turned out that Du Changfeng also knew that Hua Wushuang couldn't run around because she was pregnant, but he was a cold-faced general in public, but a henpecked husband at home. He didn't dare to say a harsh word to Hua Wushuang, and he had no control over Hua Wushuang at all.

Hua Wushuang glared at Du Changfeng and said, "Why can you go out and kill the enemy while I can only sit here and watch?"

After Hua Wushuang finished speaking, she rushed out, pulled the spear from her horse, and reached the thief in a few jumps.

Du Changfeng......

Du Changfeng gritted his teeth and had to chase after her with his sword. Who made him like this Hu Niu? He should spoil his wife.

Gongsun Wen did not intend to go out to kill the enemy because his main task was to "protect" me.

Gongsun Wen watched as everyone left, then he grabbed my arm and asked through gritted teeth, "Why did you insist on making me look so foolish in front of His Majesty?"

I laughed and said, "I don't know you, let go."

Gongsun Wen......

Yang's...

As soon as Gongsun Wen saw me like this, he understood everything. He realized that I was blaming him for deliberately ignoring me.

Gongsun Wen took out a wooden gourd from his arms. The wooden gourd was only the size of a walnut, and there was a small jade pendant made of mutton-fat jade hanging on it. It looked very delicate and beautiful.

Gongsun Wen handed me the gourd and said, "This is a wooden gourd that I carved for you in the imperial mausoleum. The gourd symbolizes good luck and happiness. I hope you will always be smooth, safe and happy in the future."

I took it and found that the gourd was polished very smoothly, which probably took a lot of effort.

The moment I received the gourd, the anger in my heart disappeared without a trace. It turned out that Gongsun Wen had feelings for me, but he just didn't want to show it in front of outsiders.

I said happily, "I thought you had forgotten me. Since you brought me a gift, I forgive you."

Yang, who was standing aside, was so upset that her eyebrows were twitching. She looked at Gongsun Wen and I, both of whom had spring-like faces. What was there to not understand?

The fighting was in full swing all around, with weapons clashing and the sound of clinking and flashing ringing in the ears, but here we were enjoying a peaceful and quiet time, with the mountains full of blooming spring flowers and the air filled with a sweet scent.

Yang gritted her teeth, stood between Gongsun Wen and me, and said to me, "Madam, there are too many thieves. It's not safe here. Let's find a place to hide."

There were indeed more and more thieves. There were people lying in ambush in the bushes nearby and in the distance, at least thousands of them.

There are only four or five hundred people on our side, and many of them are women. We are powerless and facing the brutal and well-trained rebels. No matter how you look at it, Zheng Yan is in big trouble this time.

But these rebels forgot one thing. Wei Yi and Cheng Dazhi were both top-notch fighters. Du Changfeng and Hua Wushuang were experienced generals. They were worth ten. Most importantly, before Wei Yi and Cheng Dazhi left the city, they had arranged for 500 imperial guards to dress up as merchants and hunters at various places on the official road. When the fight started, these imperial guards dressed as merchants and hunters drew their weapons from their goods and went up to fight.

The women in the palace had been pampered for so long that they had forgotten the cruelty of war. When they saw heads flying everywhere and blood splattered all over the ground, they were so frightened that they lost their minds and ran away screaming. A battle that was originally sure to be won became very difficult because of the interference of these women.

Zheng Yan was so angry that he yelled, "Someone, send them all to the side."

You can't be distracted when fighting. As soon as Zheng Yan was distracted, an arrow from the dark flew towards him.

By the time Wei Yi reacted, it was too late. He was so frightened that his eyes widened and he could not help but shout, "Your Majesty, be careful."
