At this moment, deep in the palace.
Zhu Feng, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes.
In the huge bedroom, the candles flickered on and off, giving people the illusion that the mountains were shaking and the ground was shaking. After Zhu Feng opened his eyes, he didn't move immediately, but stared at the curtain above his head expressionlessly.
He didn't say a word, and even watched for a long time without making a sound.
Then, he slowly sat up.
In the bedroom, besides him, there is another person, that is He Yi who is sitting on the chair on the other side, resting his forehead with one hand, and taking a nap with his eyes closed.
In the past few days, he has not closed his eyes.
It was also tonight, when he felt that Zhu Feng's condition had stabilized a little bit, and his body couldn't hold on anymore, so he closed his eyes and rested for a while.
Zhu Feng sat on the edge of the bed, quietly looking at his pale jade face.
He didn't make a sound, not even the sound of breathing. Slowly got up, opened the door and walked out.
In Beiping in winter, the wind is howling, and the sky is covered with ice and snow.
Zhu Feng was only wearing a thin jacket, and walking in such a cold world, he didn't seem to feel the chill at all, and even the top of his head was constantly sweating.
Because at this moment, what he saw in his eyes was not ice and snow.
But the sky is full of yellow sand.
That feeling made him almost suffocate, and the fire of karma in his heart continued to burn with the whistling wind, almost rushing from the soles of his feet to his forehead.
hot, so hot!
The killing intent in his heart was constantly churning along with the heat.
She looked to the left, then to the right, and looked around, but she didn't see anyone, but there was only a trace of clarity in her heart, and she knew that she was going to find an exit, or rather, find someone.
who is it
Where is she
"Where are you… "
His low voice came out from his throat with a feeling of a beast growling, which was shocking.
But, perhaps fortunately, there was no one around.
Worried that his condition would be found out by people outside the palace, and some people would take advantage of it, Queen Xu Miaoyin, He Yi, and Ye Zheng had already ordered the dismissal of all the palace people in the vicinity.
So there was no one around, Zhu Feng walked in such a palace, as if he was in a desert.
"Where are you… "
He was like a trapped animal, unable to find a way out, but he refused to give up, so he could only keep murmuring, walking forward step by step.
Passed through countless pavilions, Qionglou Yuyu.
In his blurred vision, he saw a gate in front of him, which was different from the bustling chaos in other places. Although this gate was also crimson and looked very new, it revealed an indescribable, Low and deserted feeling.
That feeling attracted him to walk slowly.
Stretching out his hand to push open the door, there was a "squeak", a hoarse and long sound, which gradually spread in the night.
…
At this time, Nan Yan, like Zhu Feng before him, lay flat on the bed, with a pale and haggard face, expressionless, staring straight at the curtain above her head.
But her heart is not blank.
Instead, there are thousands of threads, all tangled together.
At this time, she was also very clear that she was standing on the edge of a cliff, and she might fall to pieces at some point, but before that, she still did what she wanted to do.
She protected her man.
In the past, it was him who single-handedly went to the camp of Yue country, and even went to the territory of Tan country to save himself. Every time she saw him like that, she felt both moved and heartbroken.
There is also a little bit of unevenness.
It seems that I will only cause trouble for him, and he, apart from twisting himself, has always silently shouldered everything. As the king of a country, he has to experience the dangers that a king of a country should not have experienced.
This time, I finally had some use for myself.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on her face.
I'm not useless, and I'm not the kind of soft-boned woman who just hides under the shade of a man and enjoys it with the mentality of "don't worry me, don't suffer me, don't let me have no branches to rely on".
As his concubine, I can bear the same burden of my own honor and status.
I not only protected him, but also this country.
only…
Until now, Zhu Feng has not woken up.
Thinking of this, her eyebrows frowned again.
Of course she knew that Zhu Feng's body was originally very strong. Even if he was cut several times on the battlefield and bleeding profusely, he could still stand still; Hardness means that the more fragile his heart is.
Because the heart is fragile, it is necessary to build a hard shell to protect yourself.
And he...
What is his past, his nightmare, hiding
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard footsteps. This cold palace has always been deserted. If it wasn't for Madam Su or Qin Ruolan coming to the door, no one would come here.
They won't come in the middle of the night.
who is it
Nan Yan sat up subconsciously, and saw a tall figure standing outside the door, her eyes widened at that familiar outline.
Before he could speak, the door had already been pushed open.
The icy cold wind swept the crushed snow, and broke into this room at once, and Nan Yan watched helplessly as the figure that kept lingering in front of her no matter whether she was awake or in a dream, appeared in front of her for real. .
He went to his bed.
The surroundings were pitch black, but his eyes were surprisingly bright. When he stared at him, it seemed that his eyes had condensed into entities.
Look at any part of my body, that place is burning hot.
"Emperor..."
Nan Yan was completely dumbfounded, opened Tan's mouth lightly, and uttered these two unbelievable words.
And that tall figure bent down all of a sudden, trying to protect her.
"...!"
Breathe, suffocate.
Heartbeat also stopped.
She was suddenly surrounded by a familiar atmosphere, embraced by those powerful big hands, and pressed into his arms, just like every time in the past, he hugged her tenderly and breathed in his ears.
All the sweet memories of the two of them, at this moment, came alive in her mind.
"The emperor...?"
Her tears flowed out all at once.
you're awake
You came to see me
you're all right, right
She wanted to ask, but before she could speak, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
his embrace—
In the past, although his hug was very strong, as if he wanted to integrate himself into his flesh and blood, but even in the enthusiasm, there was a little restraint.
After all, he is so powerful.
But now, he doesn't seem to be able to restrain himself.
Those hands were like iron tongs, getting harder and harder.
Nan Yan felt that she couldn't breathe, and her whole body seemed to be shattered in his embrace.
