Ran Xiaoyu said hastily: "It's nothing, ma'am, you lie down and rest first, and this servant will go out and find something to eat for you."
After finishing speaking, he got up and walked out in a hurry.
As soon as she went out, she saw Ye Zheng standing in the corner outside, she immediately stepped forward, "Why did you come in?"
Ye Zheng didn't answer her immediately, but looked at the house behind her, and asked softly: "Where is the imperial concubine?"
"I've had a fever since yesterday and just woke up."
"ah?"
"She's hungry now, and I'm trying to get her something to eat."
"Here, I brought it to you."
As Ye Zheng said, he took out a food box from behind, Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly took it and opened it, there were some side dishes and a few steamed buns inside, although simple, but for them at this time, it couldn't be better .
"That's great!" she laughed.
As he spoke, he closed the lid again to prevent things from spilling out, and then said, "Come on, let's go in."
Ye Zheng shook his head: "No, I still won't go in."
"What's the matter? Don't you want to see your mother?"
"No, it's not."
Ye Zheng shook his head, thinking: I don't want to see her, I'm just afraid of seeing her.
Afraid that she would ask him about Zhu Feng, he didn't know how to answer.
Seeing Ye Zheng's faltering, Ran Xiaoyu immediately frowned sensitively, and asked, "By the way, how did you get in? It's not like you couldn't come in before, we can only exchange in the corner." news?"
"..."
"Besides, I saw someone guarding the door of the Lenggong Palace. How could they let you in?"
Ye Zheng hesitated for a moment, then said: "The emperor has explained, they let me in."
He didn't expect that when he heard Zhu Feng say that he would tell "them" when he arrived at Lenggong, the emperor allowed him to come in, but after he arrived, he found out that Lenggong had sent extra guards to prevent anyone from entering or leaving.
The guards let him in because the emperor had spoken.
And upon hearing this, Ran Xiaoyu's eyes lit up.
Zhu Feng allowed Ye Zheng to come in, does that mean—
She grabbed Ye Zheng's wrist in surprise: "Has the Emperor softened his heart?"
"..."
"Is he going to forgive the empress?"
"..."
"When can we go out?"
Seeing her eagerness, Ye Zheng knew that she was not for himself, but for Nan Yan who was sick inside.
The more this happened, the more uncomfortable he felt.
Ran Xiaoyu asked for a while, but Ye Zheng couldn't say anything, she couldn't help frowning, and asked, "What's going on? Tell me the truth."
"..."
Ye Zheng hesitated for a long time before he said: "Xiaoyu, the matter of going out - you stay here for now, I will come in every day to bring you food and some necessary things."
"..."
"Other things, don't worry about it."
Hearing what he said, Ran Xiaoyu frowned immediately.
It means that they don't want to go out during this time.
Ran Xiaoyu said: "The emperor is still angry with the empress?"
"..."
"He still can't forgive the empress?"
"..."
The more she asked, the more embarrassing Ye Zheng's expression became. Ran Xiaoyu's heart was cast with an ominous shadow. I won't let you go!"
Saying that, the hand holding Ye Zheng's wrist exerted force.
Ye Zheng looked at her in embarrassment, and then at the half-hidden door behind her.
After a long time, he said softly: "I can tell, but you—you must not tell the imperial concubine."
Hearing what he said, the ominous shadow in Ran Xiaoyu's heart deepened.
She said hoarsely: "You say."
Ye Zheng hesitated for a long time, then lowered his voice and said softly: "The emperor - he wants to confer Concubine Kang as Concubine Ning."
"...!"
Ran Xiaoyu's breathing was suddenly suffocated.
She stared at Ye Zheng with wide eyes, as if she couldn't believe her ears: "What did you say?"
"..."
"The emperor wants to make Concubine Kang a concubine?"
"..."
"Concubine Ning?"
"Yes."
Ran Xiaoyu's eyes were red, she bit her lower lip tightly, and after a long time, she said in a deep voice, "He—is he really so heartless?"
Doting on other concubines, canonizing Feng Qianyan...
If these things were done in normal times, Nan Yan would just laugh it off, but at this time, Nan Yan had just had a miscarriage, and was in great pain and tears because of the breakup between the two of them.
This is her life!
Seeing her biting her lower lip and frowning tightly, Ye Zheng also felt very sad.
"Xiaoyu..."
Ran Xiaoyu didn't speak.
After a while, she felt a choke in her throat, and let go of Ye Zheng's hand: "I, I'm going back."
Ye Zheng hurriedly said: "Xiaoyu, don't tell the imperial concubine about this, I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it."
"..."
Ran Xiaoyu was silent for a long time, then slowly turned around.
"Xiaoyu!"
"..."
When walking in, she said in a deep voice: "How much is he going to kill her?"
After speaking, he left.
Looking at her back, Ye Zheng had nothing to say, he could only sigh, turned and left.
After he left, Ran Xiaoyu walked to the door and paused for a long time before pushing the door and going in, her expression had returned to normal.
"Your Majesty, the servant has brought you food."
"Really? Good."
Nan Yan slowly turned her head, saw the food box in her hand, and forced a smile: "That's great."
Ran Xiaoyu came over to help her sit on the head of the bed, and then fed her food.
It's a pity that those who are sick and weak should eat warm porridge and herbal medicine, but Ye Zheng didn't think of this. Even chewing takes a long time.
Seeing her struggling to even eat, Ran Xiaoyu felt even more distressed.
With great effort, Nan Yan managed to swallow a mouthful of steamed buns, then looked up at Ran Xiaoyu: "These things must have been brought in by Ye Zheng."
When Ran Xiaoyu heard this, she immediately looked at her nervously: "How do you know?"
Nan Yan smiled wryly: "At this time, he is the only one who remembers to bring food in."
"… oh."
Ran Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief.
She was also worried that Nanyan heard them talking just now.
Nan Yan smiled and said, "It's thanks to him."
Ran Xiaoyu said: "If he is useless even for this, then I don't need to talk to him anymore."
"..."
Nan Yan looked up at her for a while, then said with a smile, "You, don't be self-willed. Ye Zheng is a very nice person, and treats you well. Such a person is so rare."
"..."
Although she usually said this, it made Ran Xiaoyu a little strange to say it at this time.
She looked at Nan Yan: "What are you talking about?"
