Chapter 2149: Take this

"emperor."

As soon as she saw him, Nan Yan happily stood up with the help of Ran Xiaoyu's hand. Knowing that Zhu Feng was busy, she didn't disturb him. The two hadn't seen each other for several days.

At this time, her belly was incredibly big, so she didn't bow. She just knelt down and bowed to Zhu Feng, who came over and supported her.

Then he said, "Hurry up and sit down."

“…”

"I'm worried that your thin legs can't support your big belly."

Nan Yan laughed.

Ran Xiaoyu helped her sit down slowly, and then Nian Qiu and the others immediately served tea and snacks. As soon as they put them down, Zhu Feng said, "You guys go down. I will talk to the imperial concubine in peace for a while."

"yes."

Everyone bowed and left.

Nan Yan knew that he had something to tell her. After all, they were going to the Great Altar to perform a sacrifice ceremony tomorrow. Although it wasn't too far away and could be done in half a day, but -

She could vaguely feel that something else seemed to be happening this time.

Since he has been busy in the imperial study in recent days and has not come to see me, I can tell that he must be preparing for something big.

However, although Zhu Feng said that he wanted to talk to her for a while, he didn't say anything until Ran Xiaoyu and the others left and the door was closed.

He just picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Nan Yan looked up and saw the several lines between his eyebrows. They had almost formed and would not go away.

As he raised his hand, a faint fragrance wafted out from his sleeve.

In Nan Yan's heart, the familiar fragrance had already become part of her mind after she had silently recited it countless times.

The fragrance made her lose consciousness for a moment.

Zhu Feng put down his teacup and looked up at her. Seeing that she looked dazed, he asked, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

"Well?"

Nan Yan suddenly came to her senses.

He glanced at the other person, but in the end said nothing.

I just smiled and said, "I just noticed that Your Majesty rarely looks tired. I'm afraid you haven't had enough rest in several days."

Zhu Feng sighed softly and said, "It's okay."

“…”

"After this is over, I can have a good rest."

“…”

It's just a "break".

Instead of "rest".

It can be seen that being an emperor is really a tough job, especially having to be a diligent emperor who cannot just hang out in the harem and enjoy himself. There will be no peace until you abdicate or...

Although she had a lot on her mind, Nan Yan still couldn't help feeling heartbroken when she thought of this.

But she couldn't say much. She just pushed a plate of cakes on the table toward Zhu Feng and said softly, "Your Majesty, please have some of this. I had them pick the first crop of osmanthus flowers this year, wash them, and dry them. I made this osmanthus cake myself. Let's see how it compares to what the imperial kitchen makes."

"Oh? You made this yourself?"

Zhu Feng seemed a little surprised. He glanced at Nan Yan, then picked it up and took a bite.

Nan Yan asked, "How?"

Zhu Feng nodded: "Mm, not bad, sweet but not greasy, fragrant and delicious."

As he said this, he smiled and said, "It's rare that you can make something edible."

Nan Yan became angry upon hearing this and said, "What does your Majesty mean by this? I didn't grow up on wind."

Zhu Feng laughed.

He put the half-eaten cake back, took another sip of tea, and said, "I'm just a little surprised that you've started doing these things."

“…”

That's what I said...

Nan Yan glanced at him, and Zhu Feng smiled and said, "I think you wouldn't be interested in these fancy things."

“…”

That’s true.

Although she had secretly made these things when she was hungry at home as a child, she no longer did these things after coming to the palace and having Ran Xiaoyu and others to take care of her.

The other concubines in the palace liked to tune the piano and mix spices when they had nothing to do, but she did not have these hobbies.

Come to think of it, my life seems really boring.

But I didn't feel that way before, because at that time, Zhu Feng often traveled north and south, and he almost always took me with him. When the two of us were together, there were so many topics to talk about and so many things to do. Who had time to do those boring things?

So he said angrily: "The emperor also knows."

“…”

"I'm so bored staying in this Yikun Palace. If I don't mess around with flowers and plants, what else can I do?"

Zhu Feng laughed when he heard this. "Look at what you said. This Yikun Palace is so big, isn't it enough for you to mess around? What else do you want?"

“…”

"Do you still want to climb walls?"

“…”

"Even if you want to, you have to wait until my son is born safe and healthy."

Use this to pressure her again.

Nan Yan could only lower her head dejectedly, looking at her bulging belly, and said, "I really hope he'll be born soon. I'm really bored here."

Zhu Feng smiled, leaned over, and touched her belly.

Then he said, “Soon.”

“…”

"I asked Xue Yun, and she said that she could give birth at any time after the ninth month, perhaps even in the next few days."

“…”

After hearing this, Nan Yan paused slightly.

He smiled and said, "Has the emperor seen Doctor Xue today?"

"Well, I have something to tell her."

"oh."

"I have also instructed her to stay in the Imperial Hospital recently and not go back at night. If there is any movement from your side, send someone to call her immediately."

“…”

"The midwives have all been chosen, and they're staying in the row houses outside the corner gate."

Nan Yan smiled and said, "Your Majesty has made such thorough preparations, I don't have to worry about anything."

Zhu Feng said: "What you need to do is to have a good rest and recuperate."

"I know."

Nan Yan glared at him: "Your Majesty is the same, you are becoming more and more long-winded."

Zhu Feng himself laughed.

I feel like I've been a bit too long-winded.

He usually wouldn't be so talkative.

If there is anything, just give the order, but this time, he has repeated the instructions countless times regarding Nan Yan and the baby in her belly.

Probably because I was looking forward to it too much.

It seemed that he had been looking forward to this son with Nan Yan since a very long time ago.

He could even vaguely recall his mood at that time and the deep sorrow he felt when he lost their first son.

But, that's all in the past.

The one in front of you is the most important.

So he said, "Okay, I won't talk any more."

Only then did Nan Yan laugh.

The two chatted for a while, and as it was getting dark outside, Zhu Feng said, "Okay, it's time for me to go back."

"Your Majesty will not stay for dinner?"

"No, I have some things to do tomorrow, so I need to finish them tonight."

"oh……"

Nan Yan felt a little disappointed, and Zhu Feng reached out and took something out of his arms, handing it to her: "Here, take it."
