Chapter 3051 Those who should serve me must come back!
He stood aside and said with a smile, "Here I come."
Nan Yan walked in, brushed her sleeves, and sat down. She looked as if she was back home. Zhu Chengjin was standing beside her with his hands behind his back, but when he saw her like this, he walked over with a smile.
"The Imperial Concubine is quite at ease."
Nan Yan did not respond to him, but looked up at Wuying Palace.
In the past, when she was still able to come to Wuying Palace, it was because Jiaotai Palace was burned down when Zhu Feng attacked the Jinling Imperial Palace. For a long time afterwards, he lived here temporarily and used it as a temporary study to handle state affairs. As his female official, she also had her own little world in a corner.
She still remembers how happy she was as she sat there.
Later, after the damaged palace was repaired, Zhu Feng moved away, but some documents that he had handled here before were not moved and remained here. Since then, it has been used as a place for document storage.
Later, when the capital was moved to Beiping, the documents were also moved away, and this place naturally became empty.
Now, Zhu Chengjin has moved in again.
It seems like a reincarnation.
Nan Yan was quiet for a moment, then smiled faintly and said, "I used to serve the Emperor here and handle government affairs. Coming back is like revisiting an old place. How can I not feel at ease?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Chengjin's face suddenly darkened.
Tingfu, who was standing behind Nanyan, subconsciously held his breath.
He had already found out that Zhu Chengjin had killed hundreds of people here during the day. When they walked in just now, they could feel that the floor outside the door was wet. Someone had washed the floor with water, but even so, it could not cover up the strong smell of blood in the air.
If at this moment, he was provoked to kill Nan Yan, these two people alone would not be enough to protect her.
Thinking of this, Tingfu couldn't help but clench his fists.
But Zhu Chengjin looked at Nan Yan with a gloomy face. After a while, he suddenly smiled again and said, "You irritate me so much, probably because you are already very angry in your heart - no, not angry, but desperate and helpless."
Nan Yan said coldly: "Why should I be so desperate and helpless?"
Zhu Chengjin smiled and said, "Today, I killed so many people here, but you didn't even come over to take a look."
“…”
"But from what I know, the Imperial Concubine is kindhearted. Back then, when my uncle stormed the palace, blood flowed like a river, and you advised him not to kill indiscriminately. Over the years, he's become increasingly ruthless, not killing so many who deserved to be killed, but keeping them around and causing trouble. This is all due to your influence."
“…”
"The Imperial Concubine, who is so kindhearted, knew I was killing someone here, but she said nothing and just stayed quietly behind the Wuying Palace. Why?"
“…”
"You are waiting."
“…”
"Or, you have been listening for sounds. You want to hear the sound of Xu Shifeng attacking the city, and you want to wait for him to come."
Although Nan Yan tried her best to hide it, she couldn't stop her eyes from trembling at this moment.
Zhu Chengjin stood in front of her, like a kitten in a cage, struggling to break free. He smiled and said, "What a pity, you won't be able to wait."
Nan Yan looked up at him.
"Why?!"
Although Nan Yan looked up at him, this sentence was not asked by Nan Yan, but by Qingting who was standing behind Nan Yan. She seemed to be unable to help but speak, and Zhu Chengjin looked up at her.
Nan Yan also looked back at her. Qingting was frightened by her gaze and immediately lowered her head.
Zhu Chengjin curled his lips slightly and said, "Because he couldn't cross the river."
Nan Yan turned around again and looked at Zhu Chengjin. She didn't say anything, but she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
After a while, she said, "General Xu failed to cross the river, but I've been listening all day and haven't heard any arrangements from the palace. If I'm guessing correctly, you should be using the people from Tiangang Lianhuanwu."
“…”
"I don't know if your people are used to water battles, but they probably aren't."
“…”
"That's why before you leave, you must take away Luo Xingwen's two most capable men, Li Chen and Fang Zhen, and their men. They've been entrenched in Xingluo Lake for years. They're as skilled in naval warfare as water ghosts. General Xu's inability to cross the river is probably due to them."
Zhu Chengjin raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He looked at Nan Yan with great interest and said with a smile, "I really want to know, during all these years you have been by his side, have you been a concubine or something else? What else did my uncle teach you?"
This statement is already a tacit agreement.
Tingfu's face also darkened.
Unexpectedly, Nan Yan had guessed correctly from the beginning. It was indeed a difficult task for General Xu to cross the river. Even at this time, he couldn't help but think that the emperor, whom he always believed to be wise, brave and invincible, was not used to fighting on water.
Not to mention water battles, everyone who has followed the emperor and the imperial concubine on tour knows that the emperor even gets seasick!
Tingfu felt a little desperate.
But Nan Yan remained calm, looking at Zhu Chengjin calmly and saying, "Whatever I learn, he taught me. It has nothing to do with you."
Zhu Chengjin smiled and said, "How can you say it doesn't matter?"
“…”
"After all, you are by my side now."
Nan Yan sneered, "How can I be of any use to you while I'm by your side? If you think so, you're simply daydreaming."
Zhu Chengjin laughed loudly twice, brushed off his robe and sat down, facing Nan Yan, and said with a smile: "You don't have to use me, after all, I have many people under my command. However, if there is someone like you in the harem, it would be a nice sight."
“……?!”
Nan Yan frowned: "What did you say?"
Zhu Chengjin smiled and said, "Why? You're so smart that you could even predict General Xu's inability to cross the river, but you can't even guess this?"
“…”
"I have already recaptured the lost city of Jinling and the imperial palace. Next, I will recapture the entire world. This land originally belonged to me, and it must all return to my hands."
As he spoke, he stretched his neck and stared into Nan Yan's eyes like a poisonous snake.
"Those who served me back then must come back!"
Nan Yan's face darkened.
In fact, she could see that Zhu Chengjin had no desire for her - it should be said that Zhu Chengjin was filled with crazy emotions and did not have the desires of a normal person. However, he was obsessed with what "belonged" to him.
Seeing Nan Yan's face change, Zhu Chengjin laughed as if he had succeeded.
"Speaking of which, he took you away from me, and now, I have taken you back."
“…”
"Interesting, interesting!"
