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

Jinping ran a long distance in one breath, and when he confirmed that Zhao Zhenyuan had not caught up with him, he breathed a sigh of relief, slowed down his pace and walked towards Shengping Palace.

I vomited blood yesterday and felt a little weaker. The tonic mixed with ginseng that I drank didn't have any effect at all.

I'm like a balloon with a hole in it, my energy is slowly being drained away.

I was lying on the bed, half asleep, when the doorman suddenly came to announce, "Imperial Censor Zhao is here."

Zheng Yan did not have a crown prince yet, so Zhao Jinping could not be the imperial tutor for the time being, so Zheng Yan appointed him as the Supervisory Censor. To put it nicely, this position is a censor, but to put it bluntly, it is an official who offends people.

Every day, he had to keep an eye on all civil and military officials, and report anyone who did something wrong or said something wrong.

If you don't report to His Majesty, he will say that you are doing nothing. If you do, you will offend those ministers. In any case, you will offend people whether you report or not.

It's really impossible for ordinary people to be such an official. Fortunately, Zhao Jinping has a strong background. His father is Zhao Zhenyuan, one of his sisters is the queen, and the other is the concubine dowager. Even if he hates Zhao Jinping to death in his heart, he dare not show it openly.

Xichun led Zhao Jinping into the house.

I sat up with the help of Yang.

Jinping felt a tightness in his heart when he saw that my complexion had become even worse.

He suddenly felt that he was in a dilemma. He was afraid that I would suffer, and thought that it might be a good thing for me to leave early; but he was reluctant to let me go. Not only him, but also many people would be reluctant to let me go. If I left like this, many people would probably go crazy.

Jinping sat down on the stool in front of my bed.

I rubbed my eyes and said sleepily, "Brother, why did you come back to Beijing?"

Jinping said, "I came back yesterday, but I came back late so I didn't go into the palace."

I nodded to show that I understood. It would be difficult to get in if the palace gate was closed.

Jinping took out a cloth bag from his sleeve and handed it to me, saying, "I searched the old house for most of the day and finally found this jade pendant in a rat hole. When the jade pendant and the silver bracelet were close, the silver bracelet suddenly emitted a bright light. I immediately knew that this jade pendant should be the so-called "key" you mentioned."

I took the cloth bag, opened it, and took out a silver bracelet and a jade pendant from it.

The silver bracelet was the one I originally had, and the jade pendant was an ordinary one, with rough workmanship and low-quality jade. Even if someone picked it up, it would not be worth a few cents.

I wasn't sure if this jade pendant was the key, and I didn't know how to open the door back to the modern era, so I said, "Leave it here, I'll study it."

Jinping suddenly said, "You won't leave quietly, will you?"

I looked up at Jinping, smiled, and said, "How could that be? I will definitely say goodbye to you properly."

Jinping's eyes were filled with sadness as he said, "You've been in the palace for so long, Aqiao misses you."

Zheng Yunyan gave Jinping a daughter, whose full name was Yue Ruoxuan and whose nickname was Aqiao. She was a cute and well-behaved little baby, and compared to the tall and strong big boy in Hua Wushuang's family, Aqiao was simply the darling of the whole family.

I said, "I miss Ah Qiao too. How about you go to the palace tomorrow and bring her in so that I can have a good reunion with her?"

It is probably impossible for me to leave the palace in my current state, and Jinping also understands this.

So he nodded and said, "Okay, tomorrow I will take Aqiao to visit my third sister first, and then go to the palace."

I thought about it and asked, "How is Third Sister doing now?"

Jinping said, "I heard from Prince Wu that her fever has not subsided today. I will go to Prince Wu's mansion to see her after I leave the palace."

Jinping really cares about me and Yiping. He is a great elder brother.

I nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, brother."

Jinping stood up and said with a smile, "Isn't this what big brother should do? Why is it so hard?"

Jinping glanced at the silver bracelet and jade pendant on my hand, and then said, "I will bring Aqiao to the palace to see you tomorrow. Your Majesty, there is nothing else to do. I will take my leave now."

Jinping had learned the rules of etiquette very well. He would bow to me every time he left, and he was very organized in what he said and did. Gongsun Wen, on the contrary, was much more casual than him.

Suddenly thinking of Gongsun Wen, I couldn't help but blurt out: "Didn't Prince Ming go to Yongcheng with you? Didn't he return to Beijing with you?"

Jinping said, "No, the King of Ming said he wanted to travel around and return to Beijing before the end of the year."

There are only a dozen days left until the Chinese New Year. Where can I swim in these ten days?

Although I had some doubts in my heart, I didn't dare to ask more about Gongsun Wen, so I said, "The road is slippery, should I ask someone to escort you out of the palace?"

Jinping did not refuse. After all, it was a long way from here to the palace gate, and it was freezing cold. Even though the snow on the palace road was constantly being cleared, walking was still not as comfortable as riding in a carriage.

I seldom leave the palace often nowadays, and Brother Ling has nothing to do, so he has been transferred back to be a palace guard. So I can only ask Fuyao to drive Jinping out of the palace.

After Jinping left, I fiddled with the jade pendant and bracelet for a long time but couldn't figure it out. I sighed, threw the bracelet and jade pendant next to the pillow, and lay down again.

After I lay down, I fell asleep again in a daze.

After I fell asleep, the silver bracelet suddenly emitted a bright light. Under the light, the jade pendant gradually became transparent and finally disappeared.

After the jade pendant disappeared, a faint voice came from the jade bracelet: "Finally contacted the No. 029 communicator, quickly locate it."

"Communicator 029 has been missing for two years. We have finally been able to get in touch. Hurry up and build a channel to bring 029 back."

“How long will it take to build the channel?”

"About fifteen days."

Unfortunately, I fell asleep and didn’t hear any of these noises.

I slept until the evening and woke up slowly.

When I woke up, I heard Yang and Xichun talking in low voices in the room.

Yang sighed and said, "The queen has slept until now without having lunch. She is weak to begin with, but she can barely eat a few mouthfuls of food a day. What should we do?"

Xichun sighed after hearing this and said, "In the past, when Sister Yingchun cooked the tonic soup for the Majesty, the Majesty could barely drink a few sips. But after entering the palace, the Majesty is even reluctant to drink the tonic soup. Is it because I didn't cook it well that the Majesty is reluctant to drink it?"

Yang thought about it seriously and said, "Yingchun is still young, otherwise I would have wanted her to come to the palace to serve. Yingchun is a good talker and can always make the queen happy. The imperial physician said that the queen is depressed, and her bad mood will also affect her condition."

Xichun heard this and said, "Wouldn't it be better to let Sister Yingchun bring the child into the palace?"

Yang looked at Xichun and asked, "Yingchun is no longer a palace maid. Isn't it a bad idea to let her live in the palace with her child?"

Xichun said nonchalantly: "It's all up to our queen. We live our own lives behind closed doors. As long as the queen doesn't object, no one dares to say anything bad about her."
