When their boat docked, a group of people on the shore immediately stepped forward.
It was Empress Xu Miaoyin, who prostrated herself to the ground with the guards behind her, and said: "My lord, long live my emperor, long live long live."
Zhu Feng took a step forward and helped her up from the ground.
Taking a closer look, Xu Miaoyin's eyes were filled with tears, and her expression was not as calm and indifferent as when she was in the palace. On the contrary, there was a bit of joy and excitement in her haggard appearance.
She tremblingly said: "Your Majesty, I finally waited until the Emperor returned safely."
"..."
"The emperor finally returned safely."
"..."
It wasn't until seeing her like this that Zhu Feng reflected on his previous actions a little bit. He left Shengjia and acted alone, although it was to retrieve his lost memories and the feeling that made him uneasy, but And indeed, not a responsible approach.
As a queen, I'm afraid that these days, she has been having trouble sleeping and eating.
Although he didn't recover his memory, since some feelings gradually came back to him, his feeling for this queen has also recovered a little bit.
Sighing lightly, he said in a deep voice, "I made you worry."
Hearing his words, Xu Miaoyin was slightly taken aback.
Ever since Zhu Feng was obliterated by the effect of Taishang Wangqing's medicine, although he treated them peacefully, the past kind of affection has long been forgotten.
So he has always been respectful and alienated to himself.
However, the words just now seem to have some past feelings, and this kind of feelings, since he woke up, has been only for Qin Ruolan.
what happened
She subconsciously looked around, only to see that Si Nanyan was following Zhu Feng.
Immediately surprised: "You—"
Having said that, he stopped immediately.
She hadn't forgotten how much Zhu Feng reacted to the "imperial concubine", and she didn't want to cause Zhu Feng's discomfort immediately after finally meeting her.
As for Zhu Feng, when he heard her unfinished words, he looked back at Nan Yan again.
A faint light shone through those deep eyes.
Xu Miaoyin hurriedly said: "No matter what, it's good for the emperor to come back safely. Your majesty, my concubine has brought people to camp ahead, and you can settle down temporarily. The emperor just came out from Changqing City. These people are also injured. Settle down first. It’s not too late to talk about it.”
Zhu Feng nodded: "Yes."
So, he led the crowd forward.
Walking all the way like this, Xu Miaoyin stayed by Zhu Feng's side all the time and didn't speak, but her quiet but shrewd eyes could see at a glance that Ran Xiaoyu had followed Si Nanyan with Princess Xinping in her arms, and she also At the same time, he saw Qin Ruolan's figure.
But he followed behind alone.
Even the two maids she took away were gone.
In this case, I'm afraid it's more ominous than good.
But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that after getting off the boat, Zhu Feng's eyes never fell on her from the beginning to the end.
It's a familiar feeling.
In the past ten years, the relationship between Zhu Feng and her has always been like this. Although after forgetting the past, it seems to have gotten a little relief, but now——
This familiar feeling is back.
Xu Miaoyin already understood something in her heart, but she didn't say anything, and took Zhu Feng directly to their camp.
After leaving the river beach, here is a very wide open space. Xu Miaoyin asked people to set up camp here, surrounded by fences, and there are still men and horses stationed to prevent anyone from approaching.
And in front, the biggest tent she prepared for Zhu Feng.
A group of people walked in.
Zhu Feng sat down and looked at the tent and the arrangement outside the tent. Although it was just an ordinary camp, the location and arrangement of the camp were very skillful, like a military camp.
Zhu Feng said: "This camp is not bad."
Xu Miaoyong stood aside and said softly: "The emperor has praised you absurdly."
"However, why didn't you wait in the nearby towns, but camped here?"
Xu Miaoyin glanced at Ye Zheng, and then said: "Returning to the emperor, when Ye Zheng left, I already sensed that there might be a big battle in Changqing City, but if all the people follow, I'm afraid I'll lose my back. It is difficult to fight against King Ning. So I let people stay here, stay in this river, go south to Changqing City, and go north along the canal, it is the most ingenious place."
"Um."
Zhu Feng glanced at her approvingly.
It seems that this queen, she didn't just rely on her family background to sit on the throne.
He said: "This time, fortunately, you are still staying here."
"The emperor..."
There was not much tenderness in Zhu Feng's words, but Xu Miaoyin understood the praise contained in their husband and wife for more than ten years, and her eyes were slightly red.
At this moment, Zhu Feng looked back at Nan Yan again.
The voice subconsciously softened a little: "You, go and rest."
"ah."
Nan Yan immediately shook her head.
Although she knew that she couldn't help at this time, she must be fully aware of the development of the situation.
Zhu Feng glanced at her, but he didn't force her to ask, he just waved his hand: "Then, everyone else should step down."
The people in the tent looked at each other subconsciously.
Obviously, Zhu Feng wanted to arrange how to fight King Ning next, so those who had nothing to do with this matter, that is, "others", should step down.
Ran Xiaoyu hugged Xinping, with Xiao Mingxin who was stunned by the shock, and retreated first.
Wen Ye and Li didn't hurt them, and asked their respective subordinates to retreat.
There are not many people left in the tent.
But Xu Miaoyin was silent for a while, walked up to Qin Ruolan, and said calmly: "Miss Qin, you have worked hard this time, go down and rest first."
"..."
Qin Ruolan was still standing on the side in a daze, but at this moment, when she heard Xu Miaoyin's words, she suddenly seemed to wake up. She glanced at Zhu Feng dejectedly, and then at Si Nanyan who was standing on the other side.
Finally turned around and walked out slowly.
As soon as she left, Ye Zheng said: "Your Majesty, are we going to return to Beiping immediately?"
"..."
Zhu Feng frowned.
Immediately, the surrounding atmosphere became dull.
According to everyone's thinking, since they have joined Yu Jia, what they have to do now is to return to Peiping immediately after experiencing a fight just now.
That's also the safest course of action.
After all, the emperor's safety is the most important thing.
But Zhu Feng's silence made everyone suspicious.
Nan Yan looked at him, feeling something faintly.
Wen Ye took a step forward and said softly, "Your Majesty, what are your plans?"
Zhu Feng was silent for a while, and said: "Even if we set off immediately, King Ning's soldiers and horses will soon catch up. Going back to Beiping is not the best way."
"That-"
