Chapter 3466: Not Enough
Zhu Feng was silent for a moment, a cold glint flashing in his eyes as he said, "Of course I have to give you the explanation."
Nan Yan frowned when she heard that.
"After all, people died in my camp."
Nan Yan sighed again.
"only,"
At this point, Zhu Feng's expression darkened. Nan Yan asked, "Just what?"
"However, if we really just give them an explanation like this, it would only embolden them."
"Isn't it!"
Nan Yan couldn't wait to speak up, "The assassination of the Yue State Prime Minister was the assassin's business, and their pursuit of the assassin was the Yue State Prime Minister's own business. From the beginning to the end, this matter had nothing to do with us. Now, that person has crossed the border and died here, and we have to answer to them? What a joke!"
“…”
"If this continues, everyone will come to our door to blackmail us!"
Although he was in a depressed mood, Zhu Feng couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
"You're quite right. They really seem to be trying to blackmail us."
Nan Yan glanced at the document again, frowned slightly, and said, "This document was sent by Xiahou Jiu, which means that he was the one who took the lead in this matter."
Zhu Feng said: "Not bad."
Nan Yan asked, "Hasn't Xiahou Jiu always been on good terms with our country? He jumped out to stir up trouble like this. Is he trying to turn against us?"
Zhu Feng took the document again and looked at it, saying, "It doesn't look like it."
“…”
"Firstly, the peace agreement between the two countries was originally negotiated between him and Jian Ruocheng. This has always been his credit, and it is also because of this that he can maintain his position in the court. If he turns against us, the peace situation will be broken, and his credit will be gone. Secondly, there has been no war for so many years, so the troops have not been deployed. Once the war breaks out, Chen Biri's two nephews will definitely take the opportunity to cultivate power in the army and replace him. Therefore, for him, he absolutely cannot turn against us."
Nan Yan nodded and said, "That makes sense."
Zhu Feng said, "Although he sent the document and was the one who initiated the matter, the wording doesn't sound radical. I think Chen Biri is trying to make a big fuss about the assassination, while Xiahou Jiu is trying to suppress it."
Nan Yan thought for a moment and said, "But Chen Biri is, after all, the Prime Minister of Yue State, and he also contributed to the throne. Now that he has suffered such a great injustice, it is not easy for the King of Yue to offend him."
"good,"
Zhu Feng said, "So, Xiahou Jiu came to handle this matter, probably because he wanted to make a big deal out of a small matter."
Nan Yan immediately said, "Even so, it's not so easy to make a big deal out of a small matter. If they want the body, then I'll give it back to them, but as for the explanation—humph! I think the emperor should not be so easy to talk to."
Zhu Feng's eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles.
He looked at Nan Yan, who looked like someone who was not easy to mess with, and said with a smile, "When did I become someone who is 'easy to talk to' in your eyes?"
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide and looked at him: "Just now, didn't the emperor say that the explanation must be given?"
"I said so."
"That--"
"But I didn't tell you who should give it to whom."
“……?”
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked at him again, vaguely realizing something in her heart: "Could it be that the emperor wants them to give us an explanation?"
Zhu Feng smiled and said, "If their killer dies here, they can blackmail us. My daughter has suffered such a great injustice, how can I not blackmail her back?"
Nan Yan suddenly had an idea and immediately understood.
"yes!"
She clapped her hands heavily. "No matter who this killer killed, it was ultimately from the Yue people. The Yue people came to the emperor's headquarters to cause trouble and even kidnapped our Yan Kingdom's princess. This is a serious matter!"
Zhu Feng smiled and said, "So, this explanation must be given, but who gives it to whom is another matter."
Nan Yan felt that her chest, which had been so stuffy just now, suddenly felt relieved.
She immediately grabbed Zhu Feng's shoulders and shook him twice: "Then the emperor should quickly send someone to report this matter."
Zhu Feng laughed and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Nan Yan said, "I want to see the emperor deal with this matter as soon as possible."
Zhu Feng smiled and said, "Whether you want to make a big thing small or a small thing big, it won't happen overnight. As the saying goes, governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. The same is true when dealing with affairs between countries. You have to pay attention to the right timing. If the timing is not right, nothing will be accomplished."
Nan Yan looked at him: "Your Majesty, what are you waiting for?"
Zhu Feng only smiled faintly: "This fire will have to burn for a while longer."
Nan Yan looked at him silently without saying anything.
At this moment, Zhu Feng remembered something, looked up at her, and said, "By the way, how is Xinping?"
Upon hearing this, Nan Yan narrowed her eyes and said, "When I came here, didn't the emperor just send over some medicine? Why are you asking again?"
Zhu Feng said impatiently, "Just answer whatever I ask you. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Nan Yan laughed and said, "Actually, Your Majesty doesn't need to send those tranquilizers anymore. The girl was just frightened at the time, but she's all right now."
Zhu Feng frowned and said, "Didn't I hear that she's been beating chickens and scolding dogs in the yard all day long?"
Nan Yan said: "Isn't it just anger?"
"What is she angry about?"
"Angry at herself for letting someone get close to her, and angry that someone left her with a scar."
Zhu Feng frowned even more tightly and said, "Hasn't someone already prescribed medicine for her? The scar hasn't healed yet?"
Nan Yan said, "It disappeared a long time ago, so now he is just throwing a tantrum."
Zhu Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and after thinking about it, he laughed and said, "I don't know who this girl inherited her bad temper from." As he said that, he deliberately glanced at Nan Yan, who rolled her eyes and pretended not to see.
Zhu Feng smiled again and said, "Forget it. If she's in a bad mood, take her out to relax."
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide: "Go out?"
Zhu Feng said, "Don't be afraid. After the people are cleared out, Yongzhou City is still clean. Besides, it won't hurt to bring more people with you."
Nan Yan thought for a moment and said, "But I'm not familiar with Yongzhou City. Even if I take her out, I don't know where to go."
Speaking of this, Zhu Feng was suddenly reminded of the past. He couldn't help but snorted coldly and said, "You're still not familiar with it? Didn't someone take you around most of the city back then?"
"then?"
Nan Yan looked at him in confusion, and only came to her senses after thinking about it again.
Zhu Feng was talking about Tong Jie back then.
She couldn't help but frown - it had been so many years, and Zhu Feng still remembered it. Besides, it wasn't a glorious past.
Seeing that she was also angry, Zhu Feng stopped teasing her and just said, "Just go out for a stroll. I'm not asking you to learn the way. I just want to relax."
Nan Yan snorted again, then said: "Otherwise, find someone to lead the way for me."
Zhu Feng asked, "Who are you looking for?"
