Chapter 1831 Is it done?

"who?!"

Ran Xiaoyu held her breath nervously, staring at the dark night, but saw a familiar, tall figure slowly walking out.

"It's me."

It turned out to be Zhu Feng.

Ran Xiaoyu quickly prostrated herself on the ground: "This servant pays homage to the Emperor."

Zhu Feng walked over slowly, raised his head and looked ahead. Xue Ling's figure was no longer visible, and he could only barely hear the faint sound of footsteps in the wind.

But after a while, it disappeared.

Zhu Feng's eyes flickered slightly in the night, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just waved at Ran Xiaoyu and said, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ran Xiaoyu then stood up, but saw that Zhu Feng did not ask Xue Ling, but only asked her: "Is your queen asleep?"

"Not yet. This servant just sent Miss Xue out. The Madam is still awake."

"Um."

Zhu Feng nodded and turned to walk inside.

Ran Xiaoyu was a little surprised that Zhu Feng was still awake at this time. Looking at his neatly dressed appearance, it seemed that he had been waiting for Xue Ling to leave and then come over.

She and Xiao Shunzi, who was following behind Zhu Feng, hurriedly followed.

Zhu Feng walked to the door and just as he stepped inside, he heard Nan Yan's voice: "Have you told her everything?"

Turning around, I saw that she was still sitting on the couch with her head lowered, as if she was thinking about something.

Perhaps he heard his own footsteps and thought it was Ran Xiaoyu coming back.

Zhu Feng asked, "What?"

"Huh?"

Hearing this voice, Nan Yan looked up and quickly stood up: "Your Majesty!"

Zhu Feng took a few steps forward, stopped her from kneeling, and said, "It's so late, there's no need to get up and kneel."

Under the candlelight, Nan Yan's face was already tired, but when she saw Zhu Feng coming, a smile immediately appeared on her face again, and she even said to Ran Xiaoyu: "Go and light a few more lamps."

"yes."

Ran Xiaoyu and Xiao Shunzi hurried over and lit the candles in several places in the room.

The room was immediately brightly lit.

Zhu Feng said, "That's better. It's bright and clear. Just now, it was like walking into a den of thieves. It actually scared me."

Nan Yan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your Majesty only knows how to coax me. If Your Majesty enters a den of thieves, it would be good if he can't scare the thieves. How can he be scared by the thieves?"

The two of them chatted and laughed, holding hands and sitting on the couch.

Zhu Feng asked, "Then why was only one lamp lit just now?"

Nan Yan said, "Xue Ling is here."

"Um."

"The lights are too bright and will easily attract attention."

"You should be careful."

"There are other people's eyes and ears in this Duwei Mansion. I have to be careful to stay safe."

Zhu Feng smiled, looked back at Ran Xiaoyu, and said, "Then ask her what she said to Xue Ling just now. What was it?"

Ran Xiaoyu stepped forward and said, "The Queen asked this servant to threaten Xue Ling."

"oh?"

After hearing this, Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows and looked at Nan Yan again.

That look seemed to be saying: How did you learn this kind of bullying method?

Nan Yan seemed to understand the look in his eyes and smiled, "Xue Ling is such a smart girl. Although Xue Yun's stories are almost certainly verifiable, we still can't be too relaxed with her. We need to make her feel a little afraid so she doesn't lose her composure."

“…”

"The emperor's important affairs cannot be sloppy in the slightest."

Zhu Feng reached out and touched her hair, saying, "You've been working so hard for me, but you've forgotten yourself."

"Own?"

Nan Yan looked at him puzzledly: "What?"

Seeing her bewildered face and no sign of alertness at all, Zhu Feng gritted his teeth and almost couldn't help but reach out and twist her face.

In the end, I endured it.

He reached out and touched her belly: "Baby!"

"Well--"

Nan Yan was stunned, and then she suddenly realized that yes, she was a pregnant woman, and her belly was pregnant with a dragon descendant who was regarded as a treasure by everyone in the harem.

But I actually forgot everything.

Seeing her look like she had just remembered something, Zhu Feng knew that she had completely forgotten that she was pregnant. He was so angry that he twisted her face and said, "I knew it. You have completely forgotten about my child. If I hadn't reminded her, I'm afraid she wouldn't have even remembered that she was pregnant, right?"

"hey-hey."

Nan Yan smiled and immediately dived into his arms. Her hands wrapped around his slender waist and she said, "I haven't forgotten. Your Majesty, please don't wrongly accuse me."

"snort!"

"It's just that I've been too busy lately to take care of him."

"you--"

"But Your Majesty, look, I'm completely fine, and the child isn't making any noise. He must know that Your Majesty and I are facing a big crisis, so he's not coming to cause any trouble. He's so well behaved."

“…”

"As soon as the emperor finishes his important task, I will take good care of my health."

Zhu Feng held the warm body in his arms and sighed, "It was a mistake for me to bring you out this time."

“…”

"You are pregnant and cannot live in peace."

Nan Yan looked up at him and said, "Then Your Majesty, will you bring me out with you next time?"

Zhu Feng glared at her angrily: "You want to do it next time!"

Nan Yan shrank her neck and snuggled into his arms again.

She was probably afraid that Zhu Feng would scold her again, so she leaned into his arms and said softly, "Why did the emperor come so late?"

Zhu Feng said, "I was planning to come over here after I finished some work in the study, but when I saw what was happening over there, I knew Xue Ling had arrived, so I went to wait somewhere else until you were done talking to her."

Nan Yan said, "Your Majesty, do you know what Xue Ling said to me?"

"What?"

"Xue Yun told us everything about the Xue family. Ji Santing was just as the emperor suspected. He was knocked unconscious by his family and sold out to the bandits in Hot Moon Bay. However, the bandits didn't kill him, so he really became a bandit and became the third in command of the bandits."

"Oh? This person is quite obedient."

"Xue Ling naturally didn't want his lover to be trapped in the quagmire, so he wanted him to leave with him. However, because Ji Santing wanted to leave the Sand Bandits, he was imprisoned by the first boss Wu Lun and the second boss Hu Saihei. In order to save him, Xue Ling had no choice but to cooperate with the Sand Bandits."

"So, Ye Zheng was poisoned?"

"Exactly."

“…”

"But after the poison was administered, her mission was completed. Now, Wu Lun and the others have already released Ji San."

“…”

"Besides, she had already made a plan to have Ji San stay in the Thermidor and wait and see."

“…”

"So now—"

Nan Yan raised her head and looked at Zhu Feng, her eyes gleaming brightly. She said, "Your Majesty, what the Tai Chi diagram says, 'You are in me, I am in you.' Is that right? Is that right?"
