Tong Jie had just finished writing a letter, and before the ink was dry, he heard knocking on the door outside.
Originally the matter involved confidentiality, he was very careful, suddenly someone came knocking on the door, he almost jumped up in fright.
"Who?!"
He roared.
A more angry voice came from outside—
"Young Master Tong, don't you want to see me?!"
Tong Jie froze in place immediately, the voice turned out to be Si Nanyan's.
He hurriedly got up to open the door, but just after taking two steps, he looked back at the letter on the table, thought for a while, took out a handkerchief to cover it, and walked over to open the door.
Under the dark sky, Si Nanyan stood at the door, looking at him with an angry look on his face.
"Miss Nanyan, why are you here?"
"Does Young Master Tong think I shouldn't come?"
Nan Yan stepped into his room door, glaring at him with a pair of bright eyes: "Could it be that Mr. Tong doesn't want to explain to me what happened today?"
"this-"
In the past few days, Si Nanyan was gentle and calm, but she didn't expect her to have such a sharp gaze. When she saw her coming late at night, she was a little distracted, so she put it away for a while.
Moreover, I still don't know what happened to her.
Tong Jie said cautiously: "Miss Nanyan, what do you say?"
Nan Yan said seriously: "Why did Mr. Tong say those things in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and that the thing you gave me was a token of love. You obviously didn't say that before, so I accepted it."
"..."
"Now, you say that, do you know how His Majesty the Emperor looks at me?"
"..."
"He said that I accepted a bribe from you, because His Royal Highness Prince Jing wants to ask for Yanyun's fief!"
Tong Jie didn't expect that she was only worried about this, and he was secretly happy for a while, and hurriedly said, "Why does the emperor think so?"
"..."
"I have absolutely no such intention."
"You have said that, can your majesty think otherwise?"
Nan Yan snorted and walked to the table and sat down.
And from the corner of his eye, he saw the letter paper on the table covered by the veil.
However, not a word can be seen.
She took a deep breath, turned her head to wait for Tong Jie again, and said, "Young Master Tong, why are you lying in front of His Majesty the Emperor?"
Tong Jie looked at her, although she was full of anger, but her beautiful face was a little more moving, and she became a little distracted for a while.
He hurried forward and said: "Miss Nanyan, those words are actually sincere."
Nan Yan turned to look at him: "What?"
"Doesn't Miss Nanyan really understand my feelings for Miss Nanyan?" As he spoke, he leaned forward with a smile on his face: "I really have a heart, and I want to marry Miss Nanyan." ah."
"..."
Nan Yan's expression darkened, and she said, "Don't you already have a wife and concubine in your family?"
Tong Jie hurriedly said: "If there is Nanyan girl, what do I want them to do?"
Nan Yan turned her head and glanced at him. Although it was just an ordinary glance, in Tong Jie's eyes, it seemed shy and timid, which was extraordinarily touching. She couldn't help leaning forward: "Miss Nanyan, I—"
Nanyan suddenly coughed.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough."
"Miss Nanyan, what's wrong with you?"
"I feel bad. The emperor just interrogated me for a long time, and my throat is full of smoke."
"Then I'll get you some tea."
After hearing this, Tong Jie hurriedly ran to the other side to make tea for her. He couldn't help but feel joy in his heart. He didn't expect good things to come so soon.
While pouring tea, he turned around and said, "Tonight—"
Before he finished speaking, his face changed.
Because he saw that Nan Yan lifted the handkerchief he covered on the letter paper.
