Chapter 952 Two people alone together
Nan Yan was suddenly shocked when she heard this.
She looked at him with wide eyes: "You said that the emperor has never favored Feng Shu?"
Zhu Xuan gave her a cold look and said, "Have you not discovered anything like this in the harem?"
“…”
Nan Yan really hadn't discovered this.
She only knew that during that period, Zhu Feng doted on Feng Shu very much and was extremely indifferent to herself and the people in the harem. He even wanted to take Xinping away from her.
At that time, she really thought that Zhu Feng had changed.
She thought he had fallen in love with someone else.
However, he didn't expect that he was really controlled by Zhu Xuan and Feng Shu using some special means, but even though he was controlled, he never favored Feng Shu.
but--
"How is that possible?"
She frowned slightly and muttered.
"Hmph, I want to know too."
Zhu Xuan's tone became even colder when he said this: "He has clearly been controlled and has given this prince Yin Jing the power. He also dotes on Feng Shu, but he still refuses to touch her."
“…”
"He seems to be holding on to something subconsciously."
“…”
“And sometimes, there’s a wavering attitude.”
At this point, Zhu Xuan's face had become frighteningly gloomy. It was unclear whether he was talking to Nan Yan about this matter or venting his anger.
He gritted his teeth and said, "We've been meticulously planning for this day for so long. In fact, I know he's a man of iron will. An ordinary person would lose their guard after just one drink of that tea, but I made him drink it for over a month!"
“…”
"He's still—"
“…”
"Originally, Feng Shu was very confident in the strange fragrance in her body. She could do something like this perfectly without leaving any trace. But because he refused to touch her, she became anxious."
“…”
Nan Yan frowned again when she heard this: "Then what did she do?"
Zhu Xuan said, "She drank that tea herself to intensify the strange fragrance in her body, hoping to gain favor in one fell swoop."
“…”
"Only at this time can others smell the fragrance on her body."
“……!”
Nan Yan suddenly understood.
No wonder they could never find any evidence against Feng Shu. After that incident, Zhu Chengxuan said that he smelled a strange fragrance on her.
So that's how it is.
However, she was really confused. She didn't expect that for so long, no matter how she was controlled, even giving Prince Ning Yin Jing the opportunity, and almost taking Xin Ping away from her, Zhu Feng never really touched Feng Shu.
At this time, Nan Yan didn't know whether she wanted to cry or laugh.
No matter what they've been through.
No matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead of them.
She knew that Zhu Feng was not someone who would really abandon her. He was much stronger than she thought.
Then, even if there are bigger storms ahead in the future, she firmly believes that they can get through it, because they are such Si Nanyan and such Zhu Feng!
Zhu Xuan looked at her slightly flickering eyes coldly.
After a while, he said, "Well, you have asked what you should ask, and I have said what I should say."
“…”
"Now, please have a good rest, Your Majesty."
“…”
"Although you are in the cold palace, there shouldn't be many people who will care about you, and they won't notice you are missing so quickly, but I still want to return to my fiefdom as soon as possible. We will set off early tomorrow morning."
“…”
"Don't get hurt along the way."
“…”
"My king, I don't want to be embarrassed by others."
After hearing his words, Nan Yan frowned slightly - what do you mean, it's hard to explain to people?
He has said it twice since he woke up.
Could it be——
Just as he was thinking, Zhu Xuan turned around, his eyes flashing, and said to the figure that appeared at the door: "I told you, everyone is here, why don't you show up yet?"
Nan Yan looked up.
The door that was originally closed was pushed open at this time, and a familiar figure was standing at the door.
His face was solemn and his eyes were stern.
Yes, Jian Ruocheng!
Nan Yan's heart sank for a moment, but Zhu Xuan had already walked over with a smile and said, "Ruocheng, you shouldn't have taken so long to come over."
“…”
Jian Ruocheng's breathing was so light that it was almost inaudible, as if he was afraid of startling someone. But when he spoke, his voice was unusually low, and it hardly sounded like his own voice: "What do you mean, Your Highness?"
"What's wrong?"
"Why did you take her—"
Having said this, his eyes flickered, as if he wanted to look inside, but didn't dare to.
Zhu Xuan glanced back with a hint of pride, then said, "As I've said before, taking a person's life doesn't necessarily mean killing her."
“…”
"Bringing her to my side and putting her life under my control, isn't that also taking someone's life?"
“…”
"This situation is much more useful than killing a person."
Having said that, he reached out and patted Jian Ruocheng on the shoulder and said, "Don't you want to see her?"
“…”
"If you don't want to see her, these days you——"
“That’s enough!”
This was the first time Jian Ruocheng rudely interrupted someone, but Zhu Xuan didn't show any anger at being usurped. Instead, the smile in his eyes deepened. He said, "Okay, I won't say anything, and I won't meddle in other people's business here."
“…”
"Try to say whatever you want to say while you're alone together."
After saying that, he walked sideways out of the room.
As soon as he left, the place became quiet.
Nan Yan reluctantly leaned against the head of the bed, but at this moment, she couldn't utter a word. She only looked at Jian Ruocheng's familiar figure standing at the door.
It's like wanting to come in, but afraid to come in.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally took a step forward.
Then, he walked step by step to the bed, lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, are you not hurt?"
As he said this, his eyes were still lowered.
From the time he appeared until he spoke his first words, he had never looked Nan Yan in the eye.
His eyes were dodging.
Nan Yan stared straight into those familiar, gentle eyes. After a long moment, she softly said, "Second Master Jian is here. Are you all right?"
“…”
This sentence is actually quite ironic.
But when she said this, she could taste all kinds of bitterness, and Jian Ruocheng understood it even more.
He was silent for a long time before he said, "It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad."
Nan Yan's nose felt sore, and she said, "If you are so ignorant, then why did Second Master Jian do this?"
