Nan Yandao: "Second Young Master, is there anything else you want to say?"
Jian Ruocheng looked at her and said, "No."
"oh."
Nan Yan nodded, looked at him again, and nodded again: "Then—"
In fact, at this time, as usual, Jian Ruocheng should take a step back, greet her politely like when she was sent back to the queen before, and ask her to rest earlier, so she can push the door and go in "without any worries".
However, Jian Ruocheng didn't speak.
still looking at her.
He was still holding a lantern in his hand, and the light was not bright enough to barely illuminate the outlines of the two people. However, under such dim light, Nan Yan could see his eyes very clearly.
Slightly flickering, glowing.
The two looked at each other quietly for a while.
At this time, even Aunt Tongyun, who was as seasoned as she was, frowned as she stood aside.
All along, Jian Ruocheng has always been a very decent and polite person, but he sent the imperial concubine back like this, but stood at the door and did not leave, which is indeed a bit beyond his status as a minister—or rather, as an aide of King Ning.
Therefore, Aunt Tongyun took a step forward and said softly, "Young Concubine, it's getting late."
Nan Yan immediately said: "Oh."
At this time, Jian Ruocheng seemed to be "awake" too, his eyes flickered for a moment, and then he said: "The imperial concubine, please rest early, we will be leaving early tomorrow morning."
"Um."
Nan Yan nodded.
So, she turned around and walked into the house. When she turned around and watched Aunt Tongyun close the door, she saw Jian Ruocheng outside the door holding a lantern and walking out slowly.
Aunt Tongyun frowned, and said softly, "Master Jian—oh no, it's Mr. Jian, what's wrong with him?"
"..."
"Could it be that you drank too much?"
Nanyan smiled wryly.
Speaking of this, Aunt Tongyun glanced at her again, and said softly: "Your Majesty, your Majesty will let Concubine Li go over tonight, will your Majesty not be angry?"
"..."
Speaking of this, Nanyan was already a little helpless.
She said, "It's not my turn to be angry."
"..."
"I can't be more angry than this."
Even though she said that, Aunt Tongyun could clearly feel that she was not in a good mood.
After all, the emperor has "changed his mind" a little these days, but unexpectedly, just after arriving in Tianjin City, that concubine Li took the opportunity to take the position again.
I really can't shake it off.
Nian Qiu, who was making the bed on the other side, said unhappily: "Your Majesty, don't worry, when you get to the Imperial Palace in Peking, it won't be the same as it is now, and it won't be her turn to hang around in front of the Emperor."
"..."
Nan Yan couldn't help but smile wryly.
She leaned on the armrest of the chair and sat down slowly. Aunt Tongyun saw that her expression was not right, she walked over to take a look, and said softly: "Your Majesty also drank a lot tonight, are you also drunk?"
"... It seems, a little bit."
"Nianqiu, hurry down and ask the kitchen to cook a bowl of hangover soup for your mother."
"Why."
Nianqiu immediately ran out, and Aunt Tongyun was going to pour water for Nanyan to wash, but when she touched it, the water was a little cold because she came back too late.
She also went down to fetch hot water again.
Before walking back from the lobby, it was icy and snowy all the way, and the cold wind was blowing. I didn't feel it. Now when I returned to the room, the earth dragon was burning again, and Nanyan felt a little hot.
She got up and pushed the window open.
With a sudden sound, a gust of wind swept the snow foam falling from the eaves and blew it head-on.
Nan Yan shivered from the blow.
However, people are also a little more sober.
She wanted to probe to see what was going on at Zhu Feng's side, but she couldn't see it here.
If it's this late, I'm afraid they should go to bed too.
…
Thinking of this, an indescribable, depressive feeling surged in my heart.
Although I just told Aunt Tongyun and the others that it's not my turn to be angry, and it's also not my turn to be angry about this, but in fact, feeling uncomfortable in my heart can deceive others, but not myself.
Zhu Feng's attitude towards himself was relaxed some time ago. Is it what they thought, that he was no longer controlled by some mysterious drug, or is he really just thinking so.
Well, now he is getting close to Concubine Li...
Or is he willing
Thinking of this, her heart felt like a pinprick of pain, making it difficult for her to breathe. She subconsciously stretched out her hand and grabbed the clothes on her chest.
A tear rolled down from the eye socket.
At this moment, a familiar feeling came.
It seemed that there was a pair of eyes staring at him.
Nan Yan subconsciously raised her head and looked forward. Outside the window, there was a dark world. Except for the light of a lantern under the eaves of the house in the distance, she could hardly see anything around her.
She couldn't help being a little nervous, and looked outside with her eyes wide open.
Who is watching me
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and she hurriedly turned her head, only to see Aunt Tongyun walking in with hot water, and seeing her wide-eyed eyes, Aunt Tongyun was also stunned for a moment: "Young lady... what's wrong?"
"..."
Nan Yan was speechless for a moment, and after a while, she said softly, "Auntie, is there anyone outside?"
"people?"
Aunt Tongyun came over and glanced out the window: "There is no one."
"..."
"The maidservant just walked all the way back and didn't see anyone."
"Yeah?"
Nan Yan was at a loss in her heart, could it be her own illusion
Aunt Tongyun said: "Your Majesty, stop thinking about it, after all, this is King Ning's mansion, not only is King Ning's men and horses guarding it, but the Emperor also sent people around, how could anyone dare to peek at Your Majesty outside, they will be beheaded. "
Saying that, she closed the window.
Nan Yan nodded lightly.
Aunt Tongyun mixed the water and asked her to wash up a bit, just as Nianqiu brought hangover soup from the kitchen, after she drank it, she finally felt a little better from the smell of alcohol.
He let them retreat and rested himself.
Once Aunt Tongyun and the others left, she was the only one left in the huge room.
For some reason, she felt a little uneasy all the time.
In winter in the north, the wind howls at night, blowing and shaking the trees in the yard, and the shadows of the trees are reflected on the windows, giving people the feeling that someone is outside.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the more I think about it, the more I feel that there is someone outside the door.
She even seemed to hear footsteps.
Nan Yan felt that she might be drunk and hadn't woken up from the wine, but the feeling became stronger and stronger, so she couldn't help but get off the bed, walked to the door with bare feet, and opened the door suddenly.
Outside, it was really empty.
When she was blown by the cold wind, she woke up a little bit and smiled wryly.
Really suspicious.
However, when she lowered her head again, she saw a piece of paper pressed against a stone on the ground at the door.
