"OK OK."
Zhu Feng let out a deep breath, stretched out his arms to hold her close to his body, and said, "By the way, you just said that you have some news to share with me alone, what is it?"
Qin Ruolan was still a little indulged in his warm embrace.
However, as soon as I heard him ask about business, I couldn't indulge any longer. I could only sniff, straighten up, and said softly: "Your Majesty, when I brought these people into Changqing City, I found that several city gates were closed. It has been forcibly closed."
"oh?"
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.
This is not too unexpected news.
From the moment they were chased by the people of King Ning's Mansion, he expected that sooner or later Zhu Xuan would take this step.
If he can't be caught, he will be trapped in the city to death. In this way, it is at least a situation of catching a turtle in a jar.
He thought for a while and said, "How many people did you bring into the city?"
Qin Ruolan said: "More than a hundred."
"oh?"
"Just now, this part is just following the concubine in the city to find the traces of the emperor, and the other part is arranged in other places, because when the concubine entered the city, I found that they closed the city gate. Later, I heard that someone issued a call for rebellion. The concubine was worried that with so many people around, it would easily arouse suspicion from others, so she separated the people from the horses."
"Um."
Zhu Feng nodded and said, "You did the right thing."
If Qin Ruolan really led hundreds of people on the street, the people in Prince Ning's Mansion would definitely find out immediately, and by then, it would be really troublesome.
Qin Ruolan smiled wryly, and said softly: "Maybe my other things are not good enough, but I will never forget that I am wholeheartedly for the emperor's safety."
"..."
Zhu Feng couldn't help but sigh when he saw her lowered eyebrows and pleasing eyes, even a little aggrieved.
Said softly: "These days, you have suffered."
Hearing his safety, Qin Ruolan shook her head hastily, and said softly: "I don't suffer, as long as I can see the emperor and stay by the emperor's side, no matter how dangerous it is, I will not be afraid."
Zhu Feng asked again: "By the way, what about the Queen and Ye Zheng?"
"Empress Empress, she sent someone to follow her concubine into the city, but she still stayed outside the city."
"oh… "
Zhu Feng thought for a while, but nodded slightly.
At this time, he needs someone to come into the city to support him, but he also needs someone to stay outside the city. After all, it is still unknown how the situation in the city will develop.
It is the right choice to keep some strength outside the city.
When he recalled Xu Miaoyin's quiet appearance, he felt a little relieved that this queen did not only work in the harem.
At this moment, he felt a softness in his hand.
Looking down, it was Qin Ruolan who held his hand in both hands.
Under the flickering candlelight, he could see many scars and bruises on his hands due to traveling around these days and fighting with people from Prince Ning's Mansion.
In the past, he was actually scarred and scarred, and there were quite a few old wounds on his hands.
However, after becoming the emperor, he was pampered anyway, unlike when he was the King of Yan, he was injured so frequently when he went to battle to kill the enemy. Seeing him like this now, Qin Ruolan felt very distressed, and said softly: "Your Majesty, my concubine is wearing a Medicine, let me give you the medicine first."
"..."
Zhu Feng didn't care about this little injury at first, but seeing her concerned, he couldn't say the words of refusal.
Then nodded: "Yeah."
So the two sat down at the table.
Qin Ruolan took out the wound medicine she carried with her, and carefully applied it to the wound on his hand. Her fingertips were white and soft, and when they touched the skin, the touch was light and soft, which made people very comfortable.
And Qin Ruolan, after applying the wound medicine, squeezed his fingers, but couldn't bear to let go.
She lowered her head, her long eyelashes covered those autumn-like pupils.
I couldn't see her eyes clearly, but the lights were flickering, illuminating her gloomy expression, and seemed to reflect her faint uneasiness at the moment.
Just now, Zhu Feng and Si Nanyan held hands together.
Even after arriving at the inn, Zhu Feng carried her to the bed.
He, hasn't he obviously forgotten her
No matter whoever mentioned the word "Imperial Concubine" in front of him, it would cause him a severe headache, and after that, there would be a blank in his memory, and he could not remember what happened before.
It was also because of this that for such a long time, he still didn't know the concubine, let alone her relationship with him.
But why, the two of them are together again
And it seemed that even though he didn't know Si Nanyan's identity, the two of them had an inexplicable feeling of closeness.
This feeling, like a stone, weighed on Qin Ruolan's heart that had relaxed a little after seeing Zhu Feng.
It weighed her down.
Feeling that she was in a different mood, Zhu Feng said, "What are you thinking?"
"..."
Qin Ruolan's breathing became heavy, and after a long while, she slowly raised her head to look at him, and said softly, "Your majesty... how did your majesty meet her?"
"she?"
Zhu Feng frowned slightly, and said, "Who is she?"
"she-"
Having said that, Qin Ruolan hesitated again.
In the palace, even mentioning the word "imperial concubine" would give Zhu Feng a headache. How could he tell him about Si Nanyan's identity at this time
not to mention-
In her heart, she didn't want Si Nanyan to appear in front of him again. In his world, she wished that the two of them would be separated and never see each other again, but she never expected that Zhu Feng would be so "close" to her now.
For a moment, she regretted why she brought up this topic.
Zhu Feng said again: "She also knows me, and she knows some things about me very well, obviously she can't be your personal friend. In this case, there is only one possibility—"
This is also what he has secretly concluded in his heart along the way.
At this moment, facing Qin Ruolan, he said, "Is she a concubine from the harem?"
"..."
Qin Ruolan's heart sank.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Feng still asked this step, but how should she answer
Really tell him, that is to make you sad, to make you forget all the past, even if you have remembered everyone, but you can't think of her "Imperial Concubine".
Maybe it's your subconscious that wants to forget her.
That being the case, why bother to ask
But Zhu Feng asked again: "But, I'm not sure, if it's a concubine in the harem, why is she outside? Besides, I still rescued her at sea."
"..."
"Ruolan, who is she?"
"she-"
Qin Ruolan hesitated endlessly in her heart, so she could only stammer and say: "She, indeed, she used to be a concubine."
"Ever? Then isn't she now? What did she do?"
"she-"
Qin Ruolan hesitated, and said softly: "Concubine, concubine can't speak."
