Chapter 1969 One Lie, Nine Truths
Nan Yan looked at him and asked, "Then, where is Xue Yun?"
“…”
"Why is he by the emperor's side?"
“…”
Finally, we talked about Xue Yun.
Zhu Feng was silent for a moment, as if he was still considering where to start. Then Nan Yan said, "The Emperor went to the Xue family again, to the East and West Halls?"
"No."
"Then why is she with the Emperor?"
Zhu Feng thought about it again, recalling the story he had prepared with Xue Yun, and then said, "I met her on the way."
"Halfway? To White Dragon City? Or coming back?"
"Halfway to White Dragon City, of course."
"Where is she going?"
"Of course it's here."
“…”
"Her sister is here and she wants to come and see her sister."
"That's right."
“…”
"I almost forgot that Xue Ling and Ji Santing are still here. They are also her concerns."
“…”
"But I never thought that a reclusive 'young master' like her would leave that deep mansion and come out."
Zhu Feng took a deep breath and said, "This is also the reason why she followed me back this time."
Nan Yan frowned: "What do you mean?"
Zhu Feng said, "She said she wanted to leave home and travel around Yan Country."
“…”
When Nan Yan heard this, she fell silent.
If an ordinary nobleman said that he wanted to travel around, she would not find it strange. After all, people in their Si family like to travel around. This time, Gu Yiyou and Tong Sinian were able to make contributions to the emperor because they traveled to various countries in the Western Regions in their early years and had broad knowledge.
But, Xue Yun?
She, she is obviously a woman disguised as a man. How can such a "young master" go out to travel?
Her mother clearly protected the child under her wings like an old hen, fearing that anyone would discover their secret. Why would she let her travel outside?
Nan Yan chuckled and looked at Zhu Feng with a half-smile.
"Her? Traveling?"
Zhu Feng naturally heard the doubt in her words.
Then he said, "Of course, I have asked her, and from her words, I learned that since she turned twenty, her relatives have been constantly urging her to get married."
"ah……"
When Nan Yan heard this, she raised her eyebrows slightly.
I suddenly understood.
You have to know that Xue Yun is a woman disguised as a man. She can get by with other things, but she can't get by with marriage. No matter how she behaves in her daily life, once she marries a beautiful bride and enters the bridal chamber, everything will be clear to her.
Of course she couldn't.
However, those relatives have always been eyeing his family's property, and they will not easily let go of the opportunity to marry her. They will definitely try their best to send the women of their choice to her.
Men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough. There are three unfilial acts and the worst one is not having descendants. These words must have weighed on her head.
If this goes on, something will happen sooner or later.
Therefore, it is possible that she left the Xue family under the pretext of traveling to avoid the limelight for a while.
Hearing this, Nan Yan hesitated for a moment and looked at Zhu Feng: "So, the emperor wants to take her with him?"
“…”
Zhu Feng also kept looking into Nan Yan's eyes.
Of course he knew that hiding Nan Yan was not an easy task.
She is too smart and knows herself too well.
However, sometimes when you tell a lie among nine truths, it is hard not to be believed.
At this moment, even if Nan Yan didn't fully believe it, she couldn't doubt it too much either.
That's why I ask this question.
