"what is the problem?"
"if… "
As she spoke, her throat choked again, and even the body tightly hugged by him trembled slightly. After all, this kind of "if" was too scary for her.
She still said: "If, I am really imprisoned—will the emperor still be like this?"
Let yourself fight, let yourself make trouble.
Can her life still see the light and feel the warmth like it is now
"..."
Zhu Feng's chest heaved violently.
It seems that the heartbeat also stopped at this moment.
This possibility seems to be the heaviest pain for him.
After a long silence, he said softly, "One thing, it will still be different."
Nanyan's voice was trembling.
"Which point?"
"..."
Zhu Feng took a deep breath and said, "I may have already razed the country of Yue to the ground."
"..."
This time, it wasn't just Nanyan who felt Zhu Feng's heartbeat.
Zhu Feng also felt her heartbeat.
There was a heavy thud, as if it was about to jump out of the chest.
He lowered his head, looked at the little woman in his arms, saw her slightly red eye circles, and the grievance and innocence on her face disappeared at this moment.
All that was left was a sense of bewilderment and emotion.
Those arms, which were originally limp and weak, tightly encircled his strong body, and hugged him tightly.
Zhu Feng sighed softly and placed a kiss on her forehead.
Shen Shen said: "I will never let anyone who hurt you go."
"..."
"so-"
He stretched out his hand, raised her chin, and let her look at him: "You have to tell me what happened this time."
"..."
Nan Yan's eyes flickered.
In fact, I knew that Zhu Feng would definitely ask, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that there was something wrong with this time.
Why, she was still in perfect body, but Shou Gongsha disappeared inexplicably.
And last night, several people attacked her together.
Also, Jian Ruocheng's jade plaque.
However, after Nan Yan was silent for a long time, she looked at Zhu Feng and said softly, "The emperor will leave this matter alone, okay?"
Zhu Feng frowned slightly: "Why?"
"..."
"Don't you want me to—"
Nan Yan firmly shook her head in his arms: "I don't want to!"
"..."
"Your Majesty, my concubine can distinguish priorities."
"..."
"The concubine understands better that the honor and disgrace of the harem is affected by the previous dynasty, but the former dynasty must not be affected by the harem."
Zhu Feng's breath sank.
Of course he had known for a long time that this little girl was very intelligent.
However, she never expected that after suffering such a great grievance, she could still be so calm and think about herself.
Nan Yan said softly: "The emperor asked the empress to punish Concubine Zhuang, but Duke Cheng and his family did not move."
"..."
"Actually, the emperor still has concerns about the previous dynasty, right?"
Zhu Feng looked at her silently for a long time, and finally sighed softly: "That's right."
"..."
"You should already know that I am going to prepare to build Beiping City, and let your uncle participate."
Nan Yan nodded: "I know. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your promotion."
Zhu Feng said lightly: "Although I promoted him, his qualifications are only enough for him to participate in the construction of Beiping City."
"..."
"There are still some things, I need Cheng Guogong."
"What's up?"
"To build a city, it is necessary to ensure the safety of the local area, and even the surrounding area. But that place has never been peaceful."
"..."
"Located on the border, the country's military threat has always been hanging over the head, bandits are rampant, and even colluded with the country's interior."
"..."
"These are the elbow and armpits of Peking."
Nan Yan somewhat understood.
"The emperor needs Cheng Guogong, or in other words, the power of the Chief Secretary of Henan Province to drive out the bandits."
"That's right."
"Then the emperor, don't do anything in the harem."
"..." Zhu Feng looked at her and said, "It's Concubine Zhuang."
"..."
"This time, she did it, right?"
In fact, he had already seen it last night, but there were some details that he needed to find out.
Now that Nanyan said this, she was even more certain.
But Nan Yan said firmly: "Your Majesty don't care about this matter."
"Why?"
"Because, if the emperor does this, it may—maybe not destroy my dream, but it will definitely affect my dream."
"What is your aspiration?"
"It's the same dream as the emperor."
"..."
"It is to create an unprecedentedly powerful and prosperous world."
"..."
"Everything the emperor does in the previous dynasty is to realize this dream. How can a little jealousy in the harem affect my dream with the emperor?"
Zhu Feng almost held his breath.
His chest seemed to be expanding rapidly.
Looking at the serious and determined little girl in his arms, he suddenly wished to melt her into his body, even into his life.
Never let her go away.
He said softly: "Nanyan..."
Nan Yan put her arms around his neck tightly, put her face on his chest, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, I know that all success and sweetness come in exchange for setbacks and bitterness."
"..."
"I am willing to be wronged for the emperor."
"..."
"Your Majesty, you must give me back a prosperous life."
Zhu Feng looked down at her.
The surging emotion in his chest could not be vented at this moment, it just turned into an invisible flame, which instantly set his whole body on fire.
He pushed her down violently...

"well!"
Ye Zheng sat at the side, watching Ran Xiaoyu's anxious expression, walked to the door, stopped for a moment, turned around and walked down the steps.
But after a while, he walked back again.
Seeing her fidgeting, Ye Zheng couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing.
Upon hearing his laughter, Ran Xiaoyu became more irritable, and walked up to him: "What are you laughing at?"
"I laugh at you, like a mother marrying a daughter."
"..."
"How old are you, are you so worried?"
Ran Xiaoyu's face turned green immediately, she stretched out her hand in front of his eyes, and slowly clenched her fist.
Knuckles snapped.
"Tell me, how old am I?"
"Well… "
Ye Zheng immediately flinched: "I, I'm just joking."
Ran Xiaoyu glared at him again: "Hmph."
Then she turned around and was about to go to the door to listen. After all, there was such a commotion inside last night. Although she was stopped by Ye Zheng, what would the emperor do to Nan Yan—
Will it hurt her
These things have been pestering her all night.
"Relax!"
Ye Zheng crossed Erlang's legs, clutching a handful of melon seeds that the little eunuch brought over, he said while chewing: "I assure you, the imperial concubine will be fine."
"..."
"Uh, of course, a little bit of damage is still there."
"Small injury?" Ran Xiaoyu was anxious when she heard it, and hurried over and said, "What?"
"Ahem..."
Unexpectedly, she really didn't understand, Ye Zheng, who spoke yellow accent, felt a little embarrassed, covered his mouth and laughed.
"...!"
Ran Xiaoyu suddenly understood.
"you-"
Gritting his teeth, he punched down.
"Oh!"
