Hearing what he said, Nan Yan felt uneasy immediately.
Xingluo Lake…
A place not marked on the map.
Is that place dangerous
Why did they go to Xingluo Lake
There was silence in the cabin for a while, as if everyone was lost in thought. After a long time, Zhu Feng opened his mouth and said to Ye Zheng, "Ye Zheng."
Ye Zheng immediately said: "Yes."
"Send the order to let our ship move forward at full speed."
"emperor?"
"Now that we know that they have turned into that river, we must shorten the distance with them."
"..."
"Otherwise, when they really enter Xingluo Lake, the terrain there is so complicated, we will easily lose track of them."
Nan Yan looked back at him.
Indeed, he was right.
According to what he just said, that Xingluo Lake is clearly a natural labyrinth.
I don't know their destination, so of course I have to follow closely.
But-
Nan Yan frowned subconsciously, and Ye Zheng did not immediately give orders when he heard Zhu Feng's orders as usual.
Zhu Feng looked at him: "Huh?"
Ye Zheng was silent for a while, then said: "Your Majesty, please think twice."
"..."
"The place in Xingluo Lake—the emperor should know."
"..."
"Better not to go."
Hearing what he said, Zhu Feng immediately frowned.
And Ye Zheng also turned around, cupped his hands towards Nan Yan and said, "I beg your concubine to forgive me."
"..."
"Weichen didn't say that to stop the imperial concubine from rescuing your grandmother. It's really—the road ahead is too dangerous."
"..."
"This time, the emperor is going on tour in micro-clothes again, and there are not enough guards around him."
"..."
"Not even a navy escort."
"..."
"In case there is any danger ahead—"
Having said that, he didn't dare to say anything himself.
He took a deep breath and said: "Wei Chen suggested that we stop the boat and dock first, and let Wei Chen contact the nearby government office and call people to escort us, and then make a decision."
After hearing his words, Nan Yan was not angry, but nodded lightly.
Ye Zheng really deserves to be Zhu Feng's confidant, no matter what happens, his first consideration is the safety of the Lord of Ten Thousand Vehicles.
In fact, Zhu Feng is so self-confident and even a bit headstrong, he really needs someone like this around him to stop him from taking risks.
After all, King Yan and the Emperor are different.
King Yan may only be implicated in himself and his family.
But what the emperor is implicated is the entire Yan Kingdom.
Just now, the uneasiness Nan Yan felt in her heart was precisely this.
She said, "Ye Zheng, I understand what you mean."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to Zhu Feng and said softly, "The emperor really shouldn't go."
"..."
"Concubine—"? She didn't finish her sentence.
Because seeing Zhu Feng staring at him fiercely, it seemed that as long as he said one more word, he would tear himself apart.
Nan Yan swallowed her saliva, and swallowed the following words forcefully.
Zhu Feng snorted.
It seems to be saying - count your senses.
Then he turned his head to face Ye Zheng, his attitude was no worse than that to Nan Yan, and he just said lightly: "I have made up my mind."
"..."
"Just go and order."
"The emperor..."
"You have to know," Zhu Feng said solemnly, "If it's something else, I can send people to do it."
"..."
"However, this will not work."
"..."
"You don't need to say too much, what I have decided will not change. Go and order."
"..."
Ye Zheng looked at him with some embarrassment, but in the end, he couldn't really disobey the emperor's order, so he could only sigh lightly, and went down to give the order.
Nan Yan said softly: "Your Majesty..."
"Don't try to persuade me," Zhu Feng didn't look at her, but put his hands on the edge of the table, looked down at the river that had reached the edge of the map, and murmured, "It's better to think about something important."
"What's up?"
"Your grandmother, why did you lead them to Xingluo Lake?"
"..."
"What does she have to do with that place?"
Nan Yan's breathing was slightly suffocated.
indeed!
Even the emperor himself is not familiar with this place, and it is even more impossible for the people of the country far in the north to know this place.
In other words, Zhu Feng's previous guess was correct.
It should be the old grandmother who pointed them to this place.
But the problem is—
What does the old grandmother have to do with this place
Ever since Nanyan could remember, she had been not sober. Even when she was sober for a short time sometimes, her emotions were often more painful than when she was sick and confused.
Probably because this life has experienced too many hardships.
Nan Yan had vaguely heard that the old grandmother was different from ordinary women who could not leave the boudoir in three steps. Even after marrying as a woman, she often traveled around with her grandfather. In the eyes of ordinary people, she could be regarded as a strange woman .
Could it be that she has been to Xingluo Lake before
Still, what does she have to do with this place
The geography of Xingluo Lake is so complicated that even the emperor doesn't have a map. With her current state of mind, where will she lead those people from the country
Seeing her frowning tightly, Zhu Feng was silent for a while.
When he spoke again, his voice softened a bit.
"don’t worry."
Nan Yan looked up at him.
Zhu Feng said: "The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge."
|
Although he said so, it was no longer possible to completely appease Nan Yan's restless emotions.
In particular, watching the boat speeding forward and the scenery of the two sides of the strait moving backwards and forwards is even more tense.
In a blink of an eye, it was evening.
Because of accelerating forward, they caught up a long way.
Just after dinner, I heard the report from the boatman. From a distance, I have already seen the river.
They immediately walked out of the cabin and went to the deck, and sure enough, they saw a river channel leading straight into the center of the river on the wide river ahead.
Because of the turbulent current and the large amount of sediment in the river, the waters in that section were particularly turbid. You can even see a big vortex in Jiangxin.
Fortunately, these boatmen are also very familiar with the operation. They quickly took the helm, and slowly turned the bow of the boat to the upper left river, and then more boatmen went to the bottom of the big ship to paddle.
The speed of the ship is much faster than before.
However, when he was about to enter the river, he felt a huge force pulling the hull back suddenly.
It's the vortex!
Everyone on the deck shook.
Nan Yan staggered and almost fell.
Zhu Feng grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms forcefully.
Nanyan's heart was about to jump out of her chest.
Panting slightly, she looked up at him.
Zhu Feng not only protected her, but also grabbed her two hands, pressed them to the fence in front, and held her hand tightly with his own.
In the ears, the anxious voices of the boatmen sounded: "Quick, hurry up!"
