Ting Fu said: "What can Lord Jane say? Although he is young, he is mature. No matter what happens, he only hides it in his heart and never shows it."
"..."
"No matter how those adults find him or block him, he always smiles."
"..."
"But, if it's important, don't say a word."
"..."
"Those adults came down and said that Mrs. Jane has a deep mind, and no one can guess what he thinks, so gradually, it is difficult for everyone to go to him again."
Nan Yan listened, and her mood became a little complicated.
Indeed, Jian Ruocheng is a mature young man, and he is a person who keeps his mouth shut. If he was not such a person, Zhu Feng would not have promoted him to be Zhongshu Shengyoucheng.
However, it is inevitable that he still wants to know what he thinks.
After all, Zhu Feng's next journey will be difficult, and it will be much easier to have a support like him around him.
On the contrary—
If there was one more resistance like him in front of him, it would be several times more difficult.
With such vague worries, Nan Yan spent the night alone.
This night, Zhu Feng didn't come to accompany her, but he asked Eunuch Yu to come over in the evening to deliver some melons and fruits brought from the south, so that she could have a good rest.
On the other side of the study, the lights were on all night.
It seems that as soon as these officials came, things followed suit.
The next morning, Nanyan was sitting by the window sill, listening to Nianqiu and Tingfu playing in the yard. After all, this was Yanwang Mansion in Beiping. The place they had never been to was so fresh that they almost climbed the wall to see it. The scenery is gone.
At this moment, Ran Xiaoyu walked in: "Your Majesty, please see Mrs. Jian."
"Master Jane?"
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment.
She didn't expect that Jian Ruocheng would come to see her.
Moreover, although this is Prince Yan's Mansion, it is less fortified than the inner courtyard of the imperial palace, but anyone who wants to see him still needs Zhu Feng's permission.
Zhu Feng would allow him to come to see him
Hastily said: "Please."
After a while, I saw a handsome man walking in from the outside.
Jian Ruocheng was wearing an official uniform, but it was difficult for anyone to wear the crisp official uniform with elegance, even coquettish taste. When he walked in, the whole small courtyard seemed to light up.
Nan Yan sat on the stool, saw him walk in, and bowed down to bow: "I pay my respects to your empress."
"Master Jane, please get up."
Nan Yan watched him get up slowly, and said to Ran Xiaoyu, "Watch the seats."
A chair was brought over, Jian Ruocheng brushed off his sleeves and sat down.
Then, the two looked up and looked at each other.
Nan Yan didn't know if her appearance had changed due to the ups and downs these days and the accidents, because the moment Jian Ruocheng saw her, her eyes flickered.
But when she saw Jian Ruocheng, she was startled.
Jian Ruocheng has lost a lot of weight!
He was originally a thin and timeless man with a graceful figure, the elegant gentleman secretly promised by a famous lady, but after only being separated for a few months, he—of course he hasn't changed in appearance, but Nan Yan just feels that he has changed a lot of.
Losing weight is only part of it.
Those originally clear eyes became much deeper than before, like a bottomless black pool.
Nan Yan looked at him, no matter how he looked, he couldn't see that at this moment, apart from the smile on his face, he had no other emotions.
There was a moment of silence between the two.
But immediately, Jian Ruocheng said with a smile: "Wei Chen has just arrived in Beiping this time, and he heard about the wedding of the empress. It's really gratifying."
Nan Yan said: "Thank you, Mrs. Jane."
"It's just that Weichen also heard that the empress has experienced extraordinary things these days. I don't know, did you hurt the jade body?"
"That's not true."
"That's good."
I don't know why, although Jian Ruocheng has always been a gentleman who is very cautious in his words and actions, but this time, when talking with him, there is an obvious alienation.
Although in the past, they have never been too close.
Nan Yan was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Master Jian... It's been a tough trip to Beiping this time, right?"
Jian Ruocheng glanced at her, then shook her head with a smile.
"It's hard work to eat the king's salary and worry about the king's worries."
"However, now that the emperor is building Beiping, there are still many things to do here. I'm afraid it will be much busier than when he was in Jinling."
"That's true."
"Master Jane must pay attention to her body."
"Thank you for your concern, ma'am."
The conversation was not salty, Nan Yan was actually trying to find something to say, but after all the talk, there was nothing to say.
There was another brief silence between the two of them.
Ran Xiaoyu stood beside her, looked at Jian Ruocheng, and then at her.
At this moment, Jian Ruocheng laughed again and said: "Xiaguan was too busy talking with the empress, and forgot about important matters. My father and sister-in-law knew that Xiaguan came to Beiping this time, so I specially asked him to bring some things to my empress."
"Oh? Mrs. Jian and Mrs. Jiahe."
As soon as the people of Jian's family were mentioned, Nan Yan immediately laughed.
Jian Ruocheng waved to the outside, and an attendant who accompanied him came over, carrying large and small bags in his hand.
Jian Ruocheng said: "I hope that your mother will not be disgusted."
"How could it be? It made Mrs. Jian and Mrs. Young bother."
The attendant came in carrying things and put them on the table, but it was quite a pile.
Jian Ruocheng glanced at those gifts, then turned to look at Nanyan.
Then, he said: "Then I will take my leave."
"Uh, so fast—"
Nan Yan was a little surprised.
But when I think about it, Jian Ruocheng is just a foreign minister after all, so letting him visit her is already an extra favor.
Besides, I really have nothing to discuss with him.
Jian Ruocheng got up, and bowed respectfully to her: "I hope your mother will take care of herself."
"Thank you, my lord."
Nan Yan walked him to the door, and then watched the thin figure leave.
She stood there for a while.
Ran Xiaoyu came over and said softly, "Ma'am, what's wrong?"
"..."
Nan Yan kept looking at Jian Ruocheng's back, and after a while, she said: "It's nothing, I just feel a little, indescribable."
Ran Xiaoyu also turned her head, and looked at the back of Jian Ruocheng who had gone away.
She didn't quite understand, but she still said immediately: "Your Majesty, come over and see what gift Mrs. Jane has sent."
"okay."
Nanyan walked to the table and opened the boxes. Apart from some tonics sent by Mrs. Jiahe, there were several sets of books given to her by Jian Tongguang.
It happened to be pregnant recently, and I couldn't walk around, so I was feeling bored.
It is best to have a book to read.
Jane is so caring!
Nanyan couldn't be happier.
For the next two or three days, Zhu Feng didn't come over because he was busy with his own affairs, while Nan Yan held a copy of "On the Latent Fu" and couldn't put it down.
But one day, when she was sitting on the bench under the eaves reading a book, she heard news from outside.
The ministers of the DPRK and China jointly wrote a letter, asking the emperor to stop the construction of Beiping City.
Jian Ruocheng's name is impressively listed!
