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

I turned around quickly, and oh my god! It was Zheng Xian!

I saw him waving a paper fan and looking at me with a smile on his face.

His smile scared me a lot, as if there was a big, smiling, drooling wolf standing in front of me, wagging his thick tail and saying, "Come on, little girl, come into my mouth!"

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shudder!

Zheng Xian closed his fan, sat down on the round stool, and said, "What? Don't you recognize me?"

I stammered, "Yes, I do."

"If you recognize me, why do you have such an expression?" Zheng Xian said as he picked up the teacup on the table. Just as he was about to drink, a young eunuch standing next to him took out a silver needle from his sleeve as fast as lightning, probed into the tea, and found nothing unusual, so he nodded to Zheng Xian, indicating that he could drink.

But after what he did, Zheng Xian had lost all desire to drink tea.

He put the cup heavily on the table, sighed and said, "Can't you just let me live in peace for one day?"

The servant quickly bent down and whispered, "Your Majesty, only when your Majesty is healthy can the world be at peace."

Zheng Xian said coldly: "What does the world have to do with me?"

When the group of people behind Zheng Xian heard this, they all knelt down, banging their foreheads on the floor again and again, and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, calm down! Your Majesty, calm down!"

Zheng Xian waved his hand helplessly and said, "You guys go down."

With their foreheads red and swollen, the group of people lowered their heads and retreated cautiously.

Yiping held my arm in fear, fearing that he would be pulled and hit on the forehead.

To be honest, it was the first time I saw such a scene and I was very nervous.

I swallowed hard and said, "You, are you here to settle accounts with me today?"

Zheng Xian turned the teacup around and said, "What is there to settle between you and me?"

Seeing that Zheng Xian didn't look like he was going to cause trouble for me, I couldn't help but get bolder. I walked up to Zheng Xian. Yiping kept pulling my sleeve back but couldn't stop me.

I looked at Zheng Xian and said sincerely, "I wanted to save someone, but I ended up killing him. This is my fault. If you want to blame someone, just put the blame on me and don't bother those innocent people."

Zheng Xian looked at me for a long while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Ah Man, do you know what I like most about your eyes? They are lively, clear, and a little cunning."

What?

I looked at Zheng Xian in confusion, not knowing what he meant by suddenly changing the subject.

Zheng Xian stood up, patted my shoulder and said, "There are no innocent people in this world. Some people are born to be high and mighty, and some are born to be stepping stones. There are only useful and useless people in this world. Ah Man, there is no need to feel guilty. Those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters."

After Zheng Xian finished speaking, he opened the folding fan in his hand with a "snap" sound, and walked away, shaking his head and fanning himself with the paper fan.

I stared blankly at Zheng Xian's back, unable to utter a word.

Not fussy about details?

There was Concubine Yu, plus the maids she brought with her, and dozens of people in Gongsun Ning's mansion, at least a hundred people in total, and they were killed at will!

How can one be so careless as to do such a cruel and inhumane thing!

The cold air penetrated from my head to my feet, my legs went limp, and I sat down on the stool.

Yiping saw Zheng Xian walking away, and quickly sat down opposite me, holding my hand tightly, and asked: "Second sister, what did he mean?"

"What do you mean?" I turned my head to look at the pond outside the pavilion. The leaves of the trees on both sides had begun to turn yellow. As a cool breeze blew, pieces of dead leaves floated into the pond, which was indescribably sad.

"What it means is that I don't have to worry about being beheaded anymore," I said with a sigh.

Yiping's eyes widened and she said happily, "Second sister's case is settled? Isn't that a happy event? Why does Second sister still look so sad?"

I touched her head and said, "Yes, I should be happy, why can't I be happy?"

Yi Ping was about to speak when Li Jin hurried into the pavilion. Seeing me, he said happily, "Oh, Master Zhao, you are here. I had such a hard time looking for you."

I rolled my eyes. If it wasn’t your special arrangement, how could I meet Zheng Xian by such a coincidence?

This acting skill is comparable to that of a movie emperor. It's a pity that there was no Oscar for Best Actor in ancient times, otherwise you would definitely be awarded a little golden man.

I turned my head away and ignored him.

Li Jin completely ignored my indifference, walked straight to me, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao, my mother is very happy to know that you have arrived at her house. She has set up a banquet in her house. Please come with me to the banquet."

Logically speaking, one should entertain people in the main house, and there is no reason to go to the host's mother's house to have a feast. What's more, I am a man now. In ancient times, if a man ran to the backyard of a family, he would probably be dragged and thrown into a pig cage!

I was afraid that this was a trap set by Li Jin, so I said unhappily, "We are not here to eat, please invite your mother over quickly. We have to go back quickly after seeing the doctor. I have been so unlucky lately that I can choke to death when drinking water, so it is safer to go back early."

Li Jin said with some embarrassment: "Mother has been bedridden for a long time and has not moved for a long time. That's why I thought of inviting Mr. Zhao to meet her in her room. If Mr. Zhao finds it inconvenient, then I will invite mother to come and have the servants arrange the banquet again."

There are almost no shots of Li Jin's mother in the TV series, and I don't know whether she was lying in bed unable to move as Li Jin said.

After saying this, Li Jin bowed and wanted to leave.

I quickly stopped Li Jin. His mother was sick in bed and couldn't move, and it was not very humane to ask her to come and see me.

I had no choice but to say, "Forget it, there's no need to bother. Let's just go together."

When Li Jin heard this, he immediately said happily, "In that case, I'll have to trouble Master Zhao to go with me."

I touched my sore butt and stood up with difficulty. I said to Li Jin, "Don't always smile at me and think that I won't cause you trouble. I will slowly settle the score with you for having someone drag me to the ground."

Before Li Jin could say anything, Yiping tugged at my sleeve and whispered, "I was the one who called you, don't blame him. You were too heavy, I couldn't move you, so I had to ask someone to carry you down."

I said angrily, "Is this what you call lifting? They pulled me off the carriage so hard that my butt was almost broken."

Li Jin couldn't help but burst out laughing and said, "Mr. Zhao is really humorous."

I rolled my eyes and said, "I'm not funny or interesting at all. I'm just being driven crazy by your boss."

"My boss?" Li Jin looked at me in confusion.

"Hey!" I sighed, patted Li Jin on the shoulder, and said, "Old Li, your boss is lucky to have you. You are cunning and treacherous, but you appear harmless. I have to thank you for eating you! Most importantly, you are loyal to him, sincere and sincere, and have no second thoughts. Tell me, where can you find such a good employee?"
