Chapter 168: Nan Yan was moved by what she said

Tong Jie's hand froze in the air for a moment, and his expression froze for a moment.

But immediately, a smile appeared on his face again, and he said, "I apologize for the rudeness. Miss Nanyan, please come in."

His smiling face made it impossible to say anything. Nan Yan clenched her hands, nodded slightly, and walked ahead out of the courtyard.

However, when they got to the front, they found out that the emperor and Prince Jing had gone out for a walk early in the morning.

Nan Yan frowned when she heard the news.

Originally, when she heard the news in Nan'an Town, she thought that something would happen between Zhu Feng and Prince Jing after entering Yongzhou. However, nothing has happened until now. The two brothers play all day and feast at night, and there is no sign of any discord at all.

Could it be that Prince Jing has forgotten that he failed to ask for the Yanyun fiefdom in the Imperial Garden, and the emperor has also forgotten the news about Prince Jing that he had heard in Nan'an Town?

"Alas, another wasted trip."

Nan Yan turned around and saw Tong Jie also had a lost expression on his face. Without saying anything, she was about to turn back, but Tong Jie took another step forward and said, "Miss Nan Yan, why don't I accompany you for a walk?"

"go out?"

Nan Yan said hesitantly: "This, is not necessary."

"Hey, Miss Nanyan, you've just arrived. There are many beautiful sights in Yongzhou City. Don't you want to see them?"

Nan Yan shook her head.

Tong Jie thought for a moment and then said, "Actually, I want to go out and see if I can run into His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness Prince Jing. I have an important matter to report to Prince Jing. Doesn't Miss Nan Yan also want to find His Majesty the Emperor?"

“…”

After he said that, Nan Yan felt a little moved.

But, I was a little hesitant.

Tong Jie took a step forward and said, "Let's go."

After saying that, he actually raised his arm and made a "please" gesture.

Perhaps it was because they were standing too close or because his arms were too long, but this gesture gave people the impression that he was trying to take her in. Nan Yan quickly took a step back and couldn't walk back to her residence, so she could only reluctantly agree.

So, the two of them left Prince Jing's Mansion together.

Although both are located on the border, Yongzhou City is quite different from the Nan'an Town they passed by before. It is much more prosperous and wealthy. The streets are bustling with people and cars, and the level of liveliness is no less than that of Jinling.

Really, it doesn't look like they just fought a battle.

However, just as they reached the center of the city, where shops were lined up and the place was bustling with activity, Nan Yan was about to move forward when Tong Jie stopped her: "Hey, Miss Nan Yan, let's not go any further. Let's just stroll around here."

Nan Yan looked back at him in confusion.

Tong Jie smiled and said, "His Majesty the Emperor and his men should be in North City."

The guest should follow the host's wishes. Since he said so, Nan Yan naturally didn't insist. She smiled and continued to stroll with him on the street.

After walking for a while, she gradually sensed something. Prince Jing's Mansion was built in the northeast of Yongzhou City, and Tong Jie had been taking her for strolls on the streets in the north, with no intention of going south.

Could it be that he knew that the Emperor and Prince Jing were in North City?

Or maybe, we can’t go to Nancheng?

However, the North City is indeed very prosperous and lively, and it is obviously where rich people live. Tong Jie took Nan Yan into a store called Caidiexuan, which specializes in gold, silver, jade and jewelry.

As soon as I walked in, the shop owner immediately greeted me warmly: "Mr. Tong, you are here again."
