Chapter 657 I Want to Have Something to Do with You
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "The master was here two days ago, but something happened at noon today, so the master left first."
"oh?"
Arslan frowned.
The middle-aged man saw that he looked unhappy and said hurriedly, "However, the master has already ordered that Your Majesty rest here for a day or two."
“…”
Arslan thought for a moment and said calmly, "Let's go in first and talk about it later."
After saying that, he took Nan Yan and the people behind him into the mansion.
As soon as I entered, I found that there was no one else in the house except some maids and servants. It looked like an "ownerless" house.
Of course, it won’t be truly ownerless.
I just heard it, it has an owner.
But, there is a problem.
Nan Yan frowned all the way, watching the middle-aged man leading the way, taking them through several doors, through the lobby, the open pavilion, the garden, and then to the residence in the back.
Neat rows of side rooms are hidden by flowers.
It looks particularly elegant.
Arslan pointed to the best room, sent Nan Yan and Tong Yuhua to the door, and then said, "Let's rest here tonight."
Nan Yan didn't say anything. After entering the room, she closed the door.
She stood by the door for a while, and only felt relieved when she heard Arslan follow the middle-aged man to another courtyard.
When I turned around, I saw Tong Yuhua sitting on the couch, already sleepy and confused.
Fortunately, a servant immediately brought hot water and a towel. She personally helped her grandmother wash up briefly and then went to bed.
But she herself couldn't sleep.
It was originally thought that Arslan would take her directly along the canal to Peking, and then head north to the Kingdom of Dian.
Find out her background.
However, he stopped at this place and came to an unnamed house.
Who was he coming to see?
Could it be that, just like the previous King of Beili who manipulated wealthy businessmen like Jie Shi in the territory of Yan State, he also manipulated some wealthy businessmen in the territory of Yan State, asking them to do things for him, or even to gather information?
If so, that's also a problem.
Before this, Jie Shi and his men had purchased mines in the country, forged weapons, and transported them to the State of Dian to help them attack the city.
It caused a lot of trouble to Zhu Feng.
Even a crisis.
And what will Arslan do?
Thinking of this, Nan Yan found it even harder to sleep. She got out of bed, put on a piece of clothing, walked gently to the door and opened it.
Immediately, a cool breeze blew in from outside.
It was pitch black all around, with only a few lanterns lit under the eaves in the distance emitting a dim light, which was not enough to illuminate the house.
For the rest, there was no sound at all.
She couldn't help laughing. It was already so late, and they had been traveling for such a long time. Even Arslan must be tired.
Besides, the middle-aged man just said that his master has left.
Even if I wanted to find out some information, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find it tonight.
So she shook her head and was about to close the door and go back to sleep, but just as the door was about to close, suddenly, a figure flashed before her eyes.
Nan Yan suddenly opened her eyes wide.
She immediately opened the door and walked out.
The yard was empty, with nothing in it.
She frowned and glanced around. Apart from the sound of wind blowing through the treetops, everything around her was completely silent.
Did I see it wrong?
She was a little confused and stood in the yard for a while, but it was night and the wind was still a little cold. Soon her hands and feet were cold. She frowned and returned to the room hesitantly.
After thinking for a moment, he bolted the door.

I slept in a daze until dawn.
After she got up, the maid brought her breakfast and also prepared rouge, powder and some exquisite hairpins and rings for her.
One of the maids was combing her hair when she smiled flatteringly and said, "Madam, you are young and beautiful. With these jewels, you will surely please the king even more."
“…”
Nan Yan frowned slightly.
When they saw me following Arslan, they thought that I was his woman?
She said lightly: "I have nothing to do with him."
"ah?"
The maid was stunned for a moment.
Seeing Nan Yan's indifferent expression reflected in the bronze mirror, she was a little surprised, but immediately smiled and said, "Yes, I am too talkative."
After saying that, he combed her hair and walked out.
But after a while, Arslan came.
Moreover, he brought something with him.
He placed two packets of medicine on the table, then said to Nan Yan, "I've already told them about the old lady's illness and asked them to prepare some medicine. They'll make some for her all the way to Dian Country."
“…”
"You don't have to worry about it anymore."
“…”
"I just instructed the kitchen to deliver it in a while."
Nan Yan turned her head and looked at him.
You wouldn't believe that a big and strong King Nanli of the Neng Kingdom could be so attentive.
After all, it would be of some benefit to my grandmother. Nan Yan said calmly, "Thank you for your trouble."
Arslan came over and said with a smile: "I am not that vicious, right?"
Nan Yan turned to look at him and said, "You're fine."
“……!”
Arslan was a little surprised. He didn't expect her attitude to change so quickly, and he couldn't help but smile.
But, Nan Yan added: "No matter how good it is, it has nothing to do with me."
“…”
After being stunned for a while, Arslan couldn't help laughing.
He laughed and said, "But you know, the more you are like this, the more I want to have something to do with you."
Nan Yan's face darkened.
Seeing that she seemed to be about to get angry, Arslan smiled and said, "Maybe, you will be my cousin."
“…”
Nan Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned away not wanting to pay any more attention to him, but Arslan continued to look at her with a smile on his face, and a little burning warmth slowly rose in his eyes.
As if she felt the warmth behind her, Nan Yan hesitated and looked back at him again.
Arslan smiled and said, "By the way, you and the old lady should have a good rest here today."
“…”
"Don't go out either."
“…”
"After we have a good rest today, we should hit the road tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
Nan Yan looked at his back as he gradually disappeared outside, and slowly frowned.
Could it be that after landing there and walking for two whole days, he just wanted to rest in Hecheng?
Then this "rest" is too precious.
She clearly felt that Arslan came here to meet someone.
But, I don’t want to know.
Who is it?
