Chapter 1248 The mood is lingering

Amid the two people's voices, Zhu Feng slowly walked in from outside.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Feng Qianyan kneeling in front of Nan Yan and asked in surprise, "Why are you here too?"

Feng Qianyan knelt on the ground and said timidly, "Your Majesty, I have come here specially to congratulate the Imperial Concubine."

"oh?"

"Your Highness is pregnant, and I am happy for you too."

Zhu Feng raised his head and looked at Nan Yan.

Nan Yan smiled and said, "Yes, Concubine Kang ignored her foot injury and came to Yikun Palace to congratulate me."

Zhu Feng glanced at her and said, "Since your foot is injured, go back and have a good rest."

"Yes. I'll take my leave."

Feng Qianyan stood up carefully. The palace maid Hanxiang, who was kneeling at the door, hurried in to support her and slowly walked out.

Zhu Feng withdrew his gaze only after their backs disappeared into the night outside.

Turning to look at Nan Yan.

Nan Yan also looked at him with a smile.

Zhu Feng walked over, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her in front of him, saying, "How was your day?"

"Of course I'm fine."

"Yeah?"

"Your Majesty, do you think that if I don't see you, I will lose my arms and legs?"

Zhu Feng deliberately took a step back and looked her up and down: "Let me take a look and see what's missing."

Nan Yan couldn't help laughing, she grabbed his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please stop making trouble."

Zhu Feng also laughed.

When he first walked in, his face looked a little gloomy, because he had been tense all day, and the muscles on his face were a little stiff. But now with this smile, he seemed to be much more relaxed, and his whole body felt a lot more at ease.

Sure enough, it was right to take the time to come and see her.

Nan Yan asked again, "By the way, Your Majesty, coming here at this hour, has he had dinner yet?"

Before Zhu Feng could speak, Eunuch Yu, who was standing at the door, said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, the Emperor hasn't eaten anything all day."

Zhu Feng turned around and glared at him.

Nan Yan hurriedly said, "How can you not eat? How can the emperor's body bear this?"

As she spoke, she was about to ask Ran Xiaoyu and the others to go to the imperial kitchen to serve the meal, but Zhu Feng hurriedly stopped her and said, "No need."

"Um?"

"I just took some time to come and see you. A batch of memorials just came over from Peking. After seeing you, I still have to go back to review the memorials. I'll eat after I go back."

"I see..."

Under normal circumstances, Nan Yan would have advised him to stay a little longer and rest for a while, but since it was an important matter, she didn't say much and only said softly: "But the emperor must also pay attention to rest and never stay up late."

"I know, you are the one who should cultivate yourself well."

After saying that, he added, "If you have nothing to do, don't meet so many people. It's a waste of energy."

Nan Yan smiled and said, "They all came to congratulate me. If I don't see them, people will say that I am too arrogant and frivolous because of my favor."

Zhu Feng said, "During this period of time, I will allow you to be frivolous."

Nan Yan couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "Then isn't this me being frivolous in accordance with the emperor's order?"

Zhu Feng was also amused by her and started laughing.

Although time was short, Nan Yan still took his hand and walked to the table to sit down. She brewed tea herself. There happened to be a plate of fruit on the table. Nan Yan said, "Then, Your Majesty, have some fruit. It has been washed in well water and is very cool."

Zhu Feng nodded and said, "It's a bit hot too."

However, just as he was about to reach out to take it, a young eunuch came running in, holding a document in his hand and handed it to Eunuch Yu. Eunuch Yu took it and could only walk in carefully: "Your Majesty, this is an expedited document that has just been delivered."

"oh?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Feng retracted his hand that was about to take the fruit, and immediately took the document, opened it, and frowned.

Nan Yan whispered, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Zhu Feng frowned and said solemnly, "Weixian, another flood..."

Nan Yan suddenly stopped talking.

At this time of year every year, floods begin to occur in various places. Having been with Zhu Feng for so many years, she roughly knows that managing such a large country really gives the emperor a headache every day.

Seeing that the wrinkles between Zhu Feng's eyebrows began to deepen again, and the corners of his mouth turned pale due to thirst, Nan Yan thought for a moment, then took a lychee, peeled it, and brought the crystal clear flesh to Zhu Feng's mouth.

Zhu Feng looked up at her.

Nan Yan said, "Your Majesty, don't worry about it. Just eat."

Although the court documents made him feel heavy-hearted, facing such a gentle Nan Yan, he couldn't help but reveal a smile at the corner of his eyes and opened his mouth obediently.

When you take a bite of lychee, the sweet juice flows from the tip of your tongue all the way to your heart.

My mood doesn't seem so heavy anymore.

Zhu Feng continued to lower his head to read the contents of the document, thinking about how to deal with the situation, while Nan Yan peeled lychees for him one by one and brought them to his mouth one by one.

After waiting for a cup of tea, he had almost sorted out the problem and just had to return to the imperial study to review this urgent memorial. But when he looked up, he saw Nan Yan still peeling lychees for him. Because she had her fingernails and the lychee shells were hard, she had a hard time peeling them.

My fingertips are red.

Zhu Feng reached out and held her hand.

Nan Yan looked up at him: "Your Majesty."

"Let me see."

He pulled her hand over and took a closer look. Nan Yan smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm just peeling lychees. I'm not hurt."

However, seeing her white fingertips turning red and her nails almost cracking from scratching, Zhu Feng still felt a little heartbroken.

He lowered his head and kissed her fingers gently.

Although the two of them had done things that were a hundred times more intimate than this, at this moment, just a light kiss, that gentle touch seemed to be transmitted from the fingertips to the heart in an instant. Nan Yan trembled, and her whole face suddenly turned red.

"emperor……"

Zhu Feng looked up at her.

Under the candlelight, her eyes were like water, sparkling with heart-beating ripples.

The sweet taste of lychee was still between his lips and tongue. The taste gradually made him feel lingering, and some hot sweat appeared on his palms.

But the next moment, he let go of her hand.

Nan Yan was still a little caught off guard, but she saw Zhu Feng had already stood up, coughed lightly, and said, "Okay, I should go back to the imperial study."

"Well,"

Nan Yan also stood up hurriedly: "Concubine, respectfully send off the emperor."

As he spoke, Zhu Feng turned around and walked out.

It was not until he walked out of the Yikun Palace and felt the cool breeze that Zhu Feng's hot mood calmed down a little. He looked back at the Yikun Palace and sighed softly.

I almost couldn't hold it anymore.

Now that Nan Yan is pregnant, he must be careful. The people from the Imperial Hospital have also carefully reminded her that she must not have sex during this period.

He clenched his fists and turned away.

At this time, in a dark corner, Feng Qianyan, who was supposed to have left, slowly walked out.

She looked at Zhu Feng's back, then glanced at the quiet Yikun Palace, and a smile appeared on her face.
