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

When I woke up, I was stunned for a long time. I couldn't believe that I was still alive!

I looked around. Isn't this Juyuan's house?

Yiping was still sleeping beside my bed, her drool soaking the sheets.

There was a figure by the window. I blinked my eyes. Wasn't this Gongsun Wen? What was he doing here?

Are you going to take me to be beheaded?

I was so frightened that I lost all desire to sleep and pulled the quilt tightly to cover my face, fearing that he would kill me if I let go.

Gongsun Wen heard the noise, turned around, looked at me and said, "Are you awake?"

I dare not speak.

Gongsun Wen's aura was so powerful that even if he just stood there without saying or doing anything, I would feel like my room was like an ice cellar, extremely cold.

I didn't say anything, but Yiping woke up.

She smacked her lips, rubbed her eyes, and said happily, "Second sister, are you awake?"

When I heard the word "Second Sister", I couldn't help but look at Gongsun Wen.

Gongsun Wen put his hands behind his back and said with an ambiguous expression: "From the first time I saw you, I knew you were a girl."

I didn't believe it and said, "I'm so fat, and you can recognize that I'm a girl? Who are you kidding?"

Gongsun Wen said with a half-smile, "You can't tell the gender from the body, but the voice is easy to tell."

"You!" Even if I were blind, I could see that he was mocking me.

Before I could get angry, Gongsun Wen sighed and said, "Some people may not be able to climb to the top even if they work hard all their lives. But if you climb high, you will definitely fall hard. Living with the king is like living with a tiger..."

Gongsun Wen glanced at me and said coldly, "You know what's best for yourself!"

Gongsun Wen finished speaking, and turned away with a flick of his sleeves. He really came and went like the wind, without leaving a speck of dust behind!

Isn't he here to kill me?

I stared blankly at his receding back, a little confused.

Yu Xinning was the white moonlight in his heart. Although he longed for her, he was able to see her occasionally. Now that she was dead in my hands, he didn't kill me and could even speak to me nicely!

When Ergouzi died, I wished I could kill Gongsun Wen with my own hands.

It doesn't make sense, and the more I think about it, the more it seems wrong.

As I was thinking hard, Yi Ping stretched out his hand and waved it in front of my eyes, saying, "Second sister, what are you thinking about so intently?"

I wiped the sweat from my forehead and asked, "What happened after I fainted?"

Yiping also reached out his hand and wiped my sweat with his sleeve, saying, "After you fainted, they carried you back to the house and locked me in as well. I haven't been out since then."

I suddenly remembered that I hadn’t seen Yiping since I went to rescue him, so I couldn’t help but ask, “You ran so fast, where did you go?”

Yi Ping said, "Oh, don't say any more. I thought I could run as fast as I could to join the fun, but I was stopped halfway and locked in this room. If you hadn't come back, I don't know how long I would be locked up."

I asked in confusion: "Why are they locking you up?"

Yi Ping shook his head and said, "Who knows?"

I struggled to sit up, put my feet into my shoes, and said, "Let's go out and take a look."

"I'm hungry too, let's go to the kitchen to find something to eat." Yiping took my arm and said happily.

We walked out of the house. The chrysanthemums outside were still blooming beautifully in the sunshine, but we always felt like something was missing.

Yiping and I slowly walked through the chrysanthemum field. Suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind. I slapped the bag door and said, "Yes, it's a person. The person is gone!"

"Who is missing?" Yiping asked curiously.

I pointed around and said, "I remember there were a lot of servants walking around here yesterday, but today there's not a single one to be seen."

Yiping shook his head and looked over, saying, "Really? How come there's no one to see?"

I had a bad feeling in my heart, so I took Yiping's hand and said, "Let's go ask Gongsun Wen."

Yiping didn't dare, and quickly pulled me back, saying, "Hey, don't be impulsive. He took us in, fed us, and gave us a place to stay. His servants are missing, what does it have to do with you? What are you asking? We'd better stay here obediently, and wait until your case is settled, and then we will go back to the general's mansion. Although those people in the general's mansion are not good people, it is still our father's territory, and others dare not bully us. If you really don't want to go back to the general's mansion, then we will go back to Yongcheng, and I will sell tofu to support you, and I promise that you will not starve."

Yiping is eloquent and speaks with reason and logic. If it were someone else, they would have been persuaded long ago, but I have a stubborn personality. If you tell me to go east, I will go west!

I said with a straight face, "No, these people all disappeared overnight. Don't you think this is very strange? And I always feel that this must be related to me. I must go and find out the truth."

After saying that, I shook off Yiping's hand, took a step forward and walked forward.

"Hey, hey, you idiot, don't walk so fast, wait for me!" Yiping shouted hurriedly.

But I didn't even turn around, so Yiping had to catch up with me, pulling my sleeve and saying, "You idiot, what if you make someone angry and they don't help you settle the case? Have you thought about the consequences?"

I rolled my eyes and said, "I'm not going to cause him any trouble. I'm just asking him a question. I'm not that petty."

Seeing that I was not convinced by her persuasion, Yiping nervously pulled my sleeve and said nervously as we walked: "You should think more about us. If anything happens to you, we will not be able to survive."

I paused, looked at the plum garden not far away, sighed, and said, "You little fool, don't really think your sister is a fool. After all, I am a doctoral student and a high-level intellectual. I will not do anything that will lead to my death in vain."

But just after I finished speaking, I suddenly remembered that it was because I was seeking death by walking on Huaji Road that I fell into the lotus pond and was electrocuted to death. I paused.

Seeing that I was suddenly stunned, Yiping shook my arm and said, "Second sister, what does doctoral student mean?"

I coughed awkwardly a few times and said loudly, "Let's go, let's go, after we finish asking questions, let's go to the kitchen to find something to eat. I'm starving."

As expected, I successfully diverted Yiping's attention. She jumped a few times and said, "The kitchen sent me a bowl of chicken noodle soup last night. It was so delicious that I almost swallowed my tongue. Let's go to the kitchen and ask if there is any more chicken noodle soup. I didn't have enough last night."

I scratched her nose and said, "You little greedy cat, when I have money in the future, I will take you to eat all the delicious food in the world."

Yiping narrowed her eyes and said happily, "We should also bring our grandmother along, but not our eldest brother. He always bullies me, and it's so annoying."

I patted her on the back of the head and said, "You little brat, you have a lot on your mind."

We came to the Plum Garden chatting and laughing, only to find that the gate was wide open and there were no servants walking around. It was so quiet that it was a bit too quiet.

Yiping and I looked at each other, then we both turned our heads at the same time and walked into the garden.
