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

I said helplessly, "Are you really stupid or are you just pretending to be stupid? You knew that the visitor was me, but didn't the guard know? He clearly knew who I was, but he kept it a secret when he passed the message. Do you think a servant can control the master?"

The color on Gongsun Wen's face completely drained away. He sat down on the stool, hugged the wooden box tightly, and was unable to utter a word.

I closed my eyes and said, "I'm tired. Prince Ming, please go back. Fuyao will see you off."

Fuyao said quickly: "Prince Ming, please go back. The queen is not feeling well and needs to rest."

Gongsun Wen was asked to leave by Fuyao, and before leaving, he did not forget to put the box of ginseng on the table.

When Gongsun Wen left with the wooden box in his arms, he looked like he had lost his soul. He walked unsteadily and hunched over, which made people feel very sad.

After seeing Gongsun Wen leave, Yang said softly, "Prince Ming is also a pitiful man."

I opened my eyes and pulled up a bitter smile. Who isn't pitiful in this world?

Since I fell ill, I have saved myself a lot of trouble.

First of all, I don’t have to accompany Zheng Yan for dinner; secondly, no one dares to stop me wherever I want to go, for fear that I would be unhappy, and if I am unhappy, I will get sick, and when I get sick, His Majesty will get angry, and it’s a vicious circle; thirdly, no one dares to send invitations to banquets hosted by noble ladies and ladies in the capital, for fear of making me unhappy, and then His Majesty will cause trouble for the men in their families, and everyone will be unhappy.

After I felt better, I returned to the Duke's Mansion and stayed there for a long time. Zheng Yan didn't dare to send anyone to summon me back to the palace.

Zhao Zhenyuan was not just talking when he said he would help Yingchun find a husband. Not long after, he really found a suitable person for him.

This man is called Zhang Yan, he is 19 years old this year, he is the leader of a 20-man squad of the Imperial Guards, every day he leads these 20 men to circle around the walls of the Imperial Palace, this is his job. Zhang Yan is not from Wangjing, his hometown is in Jincheng, his parents are still alive, he runs a small business in his hometown, he also has a younger sister, who is married and has a son.

Such a person's family background is not very good, but Zhao Zhenyuan said that Zhang Yan is honest, hardworking and motivated, and is a pretty good young man.

It's hard to judge whether a person is good or bad without meeting him in person, so I asked Zhao Zhenyuan to arrange a time for us to meet.

As a result, after talking to Zhao Zhenyuan in the morning, he brought the person to his house when he was on duty in the evening.

When Zhang Yan was brought to me, I was drinking the bitter black medicine and was in a bad mood.

But Zhang Yan knelt on the ground very obediently, with his head down. After I finished drinking the medicine and rinsed my mouth, I said, "Get up." Then he stood up and stood aside, standing straight without looking to the side.

This person must have spent several years in the army to train himself to have this expression and posture.

Zhang Yan has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is not handsome, but not ugly either. He is tall and straight, and is a good match for Yingchun.

I took the handkerchief and wiped my mouth, then asked, "Do you know why you are here?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yan blushed for the first time, lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, the Duke said he would find a wife for me."

I turned around and glanced at Yingchun. There was no expression on Yingchun's face and it seemed that she looked down on Zhang Yan.

I looked at Zhang Yan and felt that she looked familiar, as if I had seen her somewhere. After thinking for a while, I suddenly remembered that year when Ergou dragged me to the martial arts school to watch the martial arts exam, and Zhang Yan seemed to be among them!

I never thought that the boy back then would grow up to be tall and become a commander so quickly.

I suddenly developed a liking for Zhang Yan.

I said, "Look up at me."

Zhang Yan quickly raised her head and looked at me.

Zhang Yan has clear eyes and is not a wicked person.

I nodded with satisfaction, pointed at Yingchun and said, "This is Miss Yingchun, whom I want to introduce to you as your wife. She is a senior maid in the palace, very knowledgeable about etiquette and literate. Although she is a maid, she has never suffered. I plan to ask my father to make her my goddaughter, and she will be married off according to the standards of the daughter of a duke's mansion. Do you think I am satisfied?"

Zhang Yan was stunned when she heard this. Not only Zhang Yan was stunned, but everyone present was stunned, especially Yingchun, who looked at him in disbelief, her mouth slightly open, and her eyes were red before she said a word.

Zhang Yan looked at Yingchun and his heart was pounding, his face flushed. The girl in front of him was wearing a light green gauze dress, with an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, peach-shaped mouth, and fair skin. She looked like a fairy and dazzled him.

Zhang Yan felt ashamed and knelt down immediately, saying to me: "Your Highness, I don't think I am worthy of Miss Yingchun. Miss Yingchun is like a fairy in spring, and people dare not blaspheme her. But I am just an ordinary man, with a mediocre appearance, a lowly family background, and now a lowly position. Your Highness wants to marry Miss Yingchun as the daughter of a Duke's mansion, and I really don't dare to expect it."

I smiled and said, "Your bad background is not something you can choose. I just want to ask you, after you marry Yingchun, can you be devoted to her and only her in this life?"

Zhang Yan's heart was beating like a drum, and he was filled with great joy. Without thinking, he shouted loudly, "I am willing."

I looked at Yingchun again and saw that she was rolling her eyes.

I chuckled and said, "That's great. I'll give you a six-month trial period. If Yingchun falls in love with you within six months, I'll let her marry you. If she still doesn't like you after six months, the marriage will be cancelled. As for how to make Yingchun fall in love with you, you can figure out the method, except for forcing her."

Probation?

What is this ghost?

Everyone looked at me in confusion.

I saw that everyone was looking at me like a curious baby, so I couldn't help but smile again and said, "It's really a stretch for two strangers to talk about marriage the moment they meet. So I'll give them half a year to date, and if they think each other is good, then they can get married."

fall in love?

What the hell is this?

I really couldn't ignore everyone's stupid looks. I was already a little tired, so I had to continue explaining: "In other words, give them six months to get to know each other. If they like each other, they can get married. If not, forget about the marriage."

Everyone was stunned by my remarks.

In their stereotyped understanding, once two people are engaged, they cannot easily break up. How can they just separate within half a year if they don't like each other?

But there was surprise in Yingchun's eyes. She was thinking, as long as she says after half a year that she and Zhang Yan are not suitable for each other, I will definitely not force her.

Zhang Yan suddenly wilted after hearing this, with his head hung and a dejected look on his face.

I said to Zhang Yan with a bit of amusement, "Of course you have to put in some effort if you want to marry a beautiful woman. How can there be such a cheap thing in the world where a beautiful woman is given to you for nothing?"
