"Twenty years ago, the former Minister of Honglu Temple and his elder brother Bowanghou appeared in the country together?"
"...!"
Ye Zheng was startled.
Subconsciously probe over to look.
Zhu Feng's breath suddenly became heavy.
In fact, just like what he said to the officials, he didn't care about which country Nanyan was from. No matter which country he was from, he was now his woman.
However, if the matter involves the former Minister of Honglusi and his elder brother Bowanghou—
Especially Si Boyan.
There are still many mysteries hidden in this person.
Ye Zheng was silent for a while, then said: "House Bowang, he has been missing for nearly twenty years, if it is said that he and his younger brother appeared in the country twenty years ago, is it possible—"
"If he's still alive..."
Zhu Feng said solemnly: "He is in the country of Tan."
Ye Zheng took a deep breath.
In fact, if this person is not mentioned, it will have no impact on their Great Yan Dynasty at all.
After all, a person who has been missing for twenty years has been cut off from anyone, and not many people will remember him.
However, when you mention it, things get complicated.
Zhu Feng pondered for a while, then looked down at the letter again, and murmured: "At that time, they were being chased and killed by the people of the country."
Ye Zheng's expression froze again.
"The people of the country hunted them down?"
"..."
"Why?"
Zhu Feng took a deep breath and said, "It's normal for the people of Tan to chase and kill them."
Ye Zheng thought for a while and said, "That's right."
Not to mention that at that time, the relationship between the Yan Kingdom and the Tan Kingdom was a hundred times more tense than it is now. Just because a Bo Wanghou contacted the countries in the Western Regions and reduced the influence of the Tan Kingdom by nearly half, the Tan Kingdom is enough to hate him. To the bone.
Zhu Feng murmured: "The question is, why did the two brothers go to the country of Tan?"
"..."
"Obviously knowing that going there may be a dead end."
"..."
"And after going, one came back, and the other disappeared."
Ye Zheng said softly: "The one who came back still came back with the imperial concubine."
"..."
"The imperial concubine..."
Zhu Feng interrupted him: "Don't let anyone know about this."
After a pause, he added: "Don't tell the imperial concubine either."
Ye Zheng hurriedly said: "Yes."
Zhu Feng squeezed the letter paper and slowly clenched it tightly in his hand, his eyes flickering faintly.
"The country... twenty years ago..."
Nanyan...
|
After Nanyan washed it clean, she returned to Yikun Palace and slept comfortably.
When I woke up again, it was already afternoon.
Ran Xiaoyu told her that the imperial dining room has already made a clear statement, and the food and drinks will be delivered before dinner.
Nan Yan nodded in satisfaction.
However, after taking a nap, she became more sober, and murmured: "It's just a little food and drink, it seems that 'sincerity' is not enough."
Ran Xiaoyu looked at her.
Just at this moment, Aunt Tongyun came, and Nan Yan asked, "Auntie, I heard that there is a kind of wine pot in the palace called Jiuqu Yuanyang Pot, is that true?"
Aunt Tongyun was startled when she heard that.
Carefully said: "Your Majesty, what are you doing asking this?"
"Where is this thing?"
"There is a nanny in charge in Lenggong, surnamed Su. She has a lot of strange things in her hands, and among them is a pair of mandarin duck pots like this."
"oh?"
Nan Yan was a little surprised: "I thought that such things should only be available to the court servants."
"There are servants there, but Madam Su, she also has them."
"This kind of thing, the servant didn't even check her?"
"She has a special status, no one checks her."
"...!"
Nan Yan raised her eyebrows curiously.
After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "Then, is she willing to lend it to others? Auntie will borrow it for me."
"..."
Aunt Tongyun looked at her hesitantly: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty is going to entertain Concubine Zhuang and the others tonight..." Nan Yan immediately understood what she was thinking.
She smiled and said, "Don't worry, aunt. I am a noble concubine, not an executioner."
"..."
"I just borrowed that thing for use, not for killing people."
Aunt Tongyun looked into her clear eyes and believed it, she just said: "However, that Nanny Su has a weird temper, she has a lot of things in her hand and borrows from a lot of people, so she made a rule. "
"What rules?"
"Anyone who asks her to borrow something has to deposit one hundred taels of silver. After the thing is returned to her, it will be returned."
"What's so weird about that?"
"One hundred taels of silver may not be fully refunded."
"oh?"
"She is pleasing to the eye, and she will even refund more, but it is said that in the past ten or twenty years, only one or two people have encountered such a thing."
"..."
"If you don't like it, you can't tell how much you will retreat."
Nan Yan listened and said with a smile: "It sounds like this person is a bit arrogant. Is there no one to care about her?"
"No."
"The emperor... the queen doesn't care?"
"I can't manage it."
"Why?"
"Because I heard that she has an iron coupon bestowed by Emperor Gao in her hand."
Nanyan gasped.
Death-free coupons.
It was something that Emperor Gao bestowed on some meritorious ministers after the founding of the country. People who hold this death-free coupon can not only enjoy preferential treatment, but it is said that they can also avoid capital punishment.
but-
During the decades when Emperor Gao founded the country, tens of millions of people were implicated in several major treason cases, and those who committed the crimes all held iron coupons to avoid death.
So this thing is actually useless.
But the strange thing is that in the deep palace, a nanny in the cold palace would actually hold an iron coupon to avoid death.
Could it be that she has made any achievements
And Zhu Feng and the others really didn't move her!
"This is interesting."
She laughed as she spoke, turned around and took a hundred taels of silver bills from her money box, and handed it to Aunt Tongyun: "Then please ask Aunt Tongyun to go and run for Ben Gong and borrow that mandarin duck pot."
Aunt Tongyun glanced at her, took the bank note: "Yes."
time flies
In the blink of an eye, it was evening and it was time for dinner.
The harem also became visibly uneasy.
Especially at the Shou'an Palace, Xia Yunting's face was pale, and she sat in front of the dressing table, muttering: "I won't go, I won't go!"
"..."
"She's going to kill me!"
"..."
"I dont go!"
Fulan behind him was also covered in cold sweat.
Since the imperial concubine's invitation came today, the entire Shou'an Palace is so gloomy.
They also didn't expect that Si Nanyan could not be killed in the situation like last night.
Is she a strange life-saving cat
At this moment, Ran Xiaoyu came in from the outside, saw the panicked Xia Yunting, and saluted with a sneer: "Xia Zhaoyi, are you still not moving?"
"..."
"The imperial concubine has personally ordered her servants to urge you."
