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

Yang's uneasiness became more and more intense, but I was the master and she was just a servant, there was no way she could disobey me, so she had to stand there and watch me walk into Fengyu Tower.

The Fengyu Tower is more than ten meters high, but the stairs are winding and narrow. I was out of breath after walking up a few floors.

My body is getting heavier and heavier now, as if it is not my own. Every step I take is very difficult. Excruciating pain comes from all my limbs and makes me dizzy and my eyes go black.

Without Yang's support, it seemed impossible for me to reach the top by myself. In addition, I was wearing a heavy concubine's dress and a long fox fur cloak, which made the burden even heavier.

There are still eight floors to reach the top. I really can't walk anymore, so I just sit down on the stairs and rest my feet.

The drumbeats from upstairs became more and more frequent, which made me very irritated. If I had not wanted to commit suicide, I would have really climbed so high and exhausted myself.

I was wondering how to climb to the top of the building when suddenly my vision darkened and a tall figure appeared in front of me.

I looked up and saw that it was Gongsun Wen who was coming down the stairs.

I stared at Gongsun Wen blankly, not knowing how to react. I didn't understand why he ran downstairs when he was fine upstairs.

Gongsun Wen sighed and said, "How come you don't even have a maid to serve you?"

He didn't ask me why I was sitting on the floor, but instead asked me why there was no one to serve me.

I stood up slowly and said, "I'm going to offer sacrifices to the heavens, not to go on a trip, what do I need a maid to do with me?"

Gongsun Wen was not surprised by such rude words. Instead, he suddenly walked up to me, stretched out his hands and picked me up.

I was shocked and said in a horrified voice: "Put me down quickly, have you forgotten who I am?"

Gongsun Wen said slowly, "The stairs are so narrow. If you move again, we will both fall down."

When he said that, I realized we were still on the stairs. I immediately put my arms around his neck and didn't dare to move.

Gongsun Wen's body froze when I suddenly hugged his neck, but he reacted quickly, hugged me and immediately turned around and went upstairs.

There were guards on every floor, but when they saw Gongsun Wen carrying me upstairs, they did not show any surprise. Instead, they took the initiative to make room for Gongsun Wen to go upstairs.

This was the first time in my two lifetimes that I was carried like a princess while awake. I was a little embarrassed and buried my head in Gongsun Wen's chest. Gongsun Wen had a faint plum blossom scent on him, which was very pleasant. I greedily took a few deep breaths.

Gongsun Wen suddenly asked, "What are you doing?"

I hugged his neck tighter and said, "Aren't you tired carrying me up so many flights of stairs?"

Gongsun Wen knew that I didn't mean what I said, but he didn't expose me. He said, "You are too light, I won't feel tired holding you."

I said, "I haven't lived a very satisfactory life in this life. If there is an afterlife, can I meet you earlier?"

Gongsun Wen paused and his breathing suddenly became rapid, but after a while, his mood calmed down and he continued to walk.

After walking a few steps, he said, "Don't talk nonsense. You will definitely live a good life."

I buried my head in his chest, took a few deep breaths, and said, "You smell so good, I must smell it a few more times so that I won't forget your smell."

Gongsun Wen held my hand tightly, and then said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? You don't have the modesty of a woman at all."

I chuckled and said, "Can a woman's modesty be used to make a living? Anyway, I have no hope of getting married, so why should I be modest?"

Gongsun Wen was very angry with me and was huffing and puffing, but he didn't say anything else.

Besides, even if I was light, the clothes I was wearing were not light, and he was exhausted from climbing such high stairs, so he didn't dare to say anything for fear of discouraging me.

When we reached the second to last floor, he put me down. He was sweating profusely. He took a breath and said, "There is only one floor left. Go up by yourself, or you will be blamed by His Majesty if he sees you."

I straightened my robe and said "OK".

So I walked in front, and Gongsun Wen followed me up the stairs. Until now, I have never asked him why he suddenly appeared in front of me.

When I walked out of the door on the rooftop, the palace maid guarding the door tactfully stuffed a hot water bottle into my hand.

The wind on the roof was very strong, and snowflakes occasionally fell. It was really impossible to warm myself up without a hot water bottle.

I took the hot water bottle and said "thank you" to the palace maid, which scared her so much that she almost knelt down in front of me.

Everyone was standing in front of the altar at this time. Except for Zheng Yan and Zhao Fangping, who had people holding umbrellas next to them, no one else dared to hold an umbrella, and their bodies were covered with snowflakes.

After Gongsun Wen and I reached the roof, we did not disturb the people in front of the altar. Instead, we quietly walked around the crowd and stood next to the guardrail.

Gongsun Wen should have returned to Zheng Yan, but I don’t know why he stayed with me all the time and never left my side.

I turned sideways to glance outside the guardrail. It was really high. If I jumped from here, I would definitely die.

But I don’t know if I can die immediately. If not, how painful would that be?

I was just daydreaming, and I didn't expect that the sacrificial ceremony was actually completed. But think about it, it's so cold, standing on the roof of such a high building and drinking the northwest wind, no one can stand it.

Gongsun Wen has been staring at me closely, not missing any of my expressions and movements. His brows are furrowed tightly, and the uneasy premonition in his heart is getting stronger and stronger. He wants to carry me downstairs, put me in the carriage and send me back to the palace. He really can't understand why Zheng Yan wants me to participate in such a heavenly worship ceremony. Such a ceremony doesn't require me. He asked me to go out in such a cold weather and climb such a high building. Isn't he crazy?

He was also daydreaming, but suddenly heard Ah Man asking him if he had ever liked someone. His mind went blank and he almost blurted out "The girl I like is you", but fortunately he held it back. This was not the place or time to talk about these things.

Before he could reply, Ah Man said that she wanted to go home. There were many strange and weird things in her hometown, and she had never heard of them.

The uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he always had a feeling that Ah Man was leaving some last words.

Bah, what last words? Ah Man won’t leave so soon.

Didn't Master Hui Jing say that he used his own life to exchange for Ah Man's life for two years? The two years haven't come yet. I'm overthinking.

Just as he was thinking about it, Zheng Yan came over with Zhao Fangping.

Gongsun Wen was disgusted by Zhao Fangping's pretentiousness, but she was the queen after all, so she had to give him some face. But he didn't expect Ah Man to fall down. When he was about to help her, Zheng Yan glanced at him, so he had to stop his outstretched hand and stand stiffly.
