Chapter 2488 Detoxification

Nan Yan said seriously, "Your Majesty, do you remember the injuries you suffered in the past?"

“……!”

Zhu Feng's heart sank suddenly.

Nan Yan continued, "Even if Empress Renxiao and Master Heyi told the emperor about the past, the injuries they suffered, and the pain they felt, they wouldn't explain everything to him, right?"

“…”

"How did the Emperor know this?"

Zhu Feng's body seemed to be a little stiff, and he sat there motionless.

However, although the candlelight was still solid, his eyes were already flickering like a candle in the wind.

Nan Yan even felt that the palm of the big hand she was holding was suddenly covered with cold sweat.

Before he could make any move, Nan Yan grabbed his big hand first, as if to hold him down.

Zhu Feng frowned and immediately said, "I was just saying this casually."

After saying that, he exerted force and pulled his hand out of Nan Yan's hand.

Then he said, "Well, it's getting late, you should go to bed early."

Then he stood up and walked out.

But Nan Yan didn't allow him to leave immediately. She stood up even faster than him and blocked his way directly: "Your Majesty, you can't leave!"

Zhu Feng's brows knitted together, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't mess around!"

Nan Yan asked, "What am I doing?"

“…”

"The Emperor is messing around!"

Zhu Feng's expression suddenly darkened as he said, "How dare you! Nan Yan, you're becoming more and more outrageous. Is this how you talk to me?!"

“…”

Nan Yan bit her lower lip.

In the past, when they were together, she had said even more outrageous words, and Zhu Feng never cared. But now, he actually used the attitude of a king to suppress her.

At this moment, the servants outside seemed to have heard the emperor's angry roar inside and were all startled.

I could clearly hear their cautious footsteps approaching.

Eunuch Yu was afraid that the two enemies would start arguing again after the matter had finally passed, so he whispered, "Your Majesty...what are your instructions?"

Zhu Feng said: "Get out of here!"

"Ah? Yes, yes."

Everyone hurried away.

When there was no more sound outside and Zhu Feng seemed to be leaving again, Nan Yan simply stopped talking. She reached out and forcibly pulled Zhu Feng's hands from behind his back, pulled up his sleeves, and said, "Is this concubine really that unreasonable? Then what are these needle marks on the emperor's body?"

Zhu Feng was startled. When he looked down, he found that the needle hole he had just pricked on his wrist was still there.

In the past period of time, he had not been discovered because he had rarely come to her place, and the acupuncture points were relatively hidden and not easy to be seen; but today, it was obviously because she had been holding his hand in the imperial study, and he did not notice.

She discovered it.

Zhu Feng's breath became heavier and he stopped talking.

Nan Yan grabbed his hand, unwilling to let go, and said in a deep voice, "The Emperor has always been too close to Doctor Xue, but when I asked him, he refused to admit anything."

“…”

"If you really want to canonize her, as the emperor said, it only takes a word."

“…”

"What's there to be unacknowledged?"

“…”

"It wasn't until today that I finally understood that there was one thing that the Emperor really wanted to hide from me."

Zhu Feng gritted his teeth.

Nan Yan took a step forward, even pausing for breath, and whispered, "Is the Emperor trying to detoxify the Marrow Cleansing Flower?"
