Chapter 161 The Emperor's Golden Carriage is Not Yours
Early the next morning, someone came to wake them up.
Nan Yan slept with her hand under her head all night, and when she woke up, her whole arm was numb. She finished washing up with everyone else in a daze.
When I went out, the carriage had already stopped in front of the inn.
Because she didn't sleep well last night, she was still a little dazed at this time. She walked towards Zhu Feng's golden carriage as usual. Just as she reached the side of the carriage, a servant came out and stopped her.
"Lady-in-law, please go back."
Nan Yan was stunned and looked up at him: "Huh?"
The guard said sternly, "The emperor's golden carriage is not yours."
“…”
Nan Yan was still a little dazed. Ever since she had suffered from heatstroke, she had been on the emperor's golden carriage. How could she be now——
She raised her head and looked at the tent that hung down and tightly surrounded the entire carriage, and suddenly she understood something.
How could these people not know that they would only do this because someone gave the order?
Zhu Feng, doesn't want to see me.
At this time, the sun had not yet fully emitted its heat, but Nan Yan had a vague illusion that she was about to have a heat stroke again. Her face was hot, but her whole body was cold. She blushed and whispered, "I know."
After saying that, he turned around and walked back to the carriage where the palace maid was riding.
There were already many people crowded in the carriage, and when she got in, there was no place to put her feet. Nan Yan could only listen to the people inside complaining constantly, barely lying on the floor so as not to disturb others. Finally, she heard an order from outside, and their carriage drove forward.
The journey was a bit bumpy. After all, the road was not as easy to walk on as before. Nan Yan's knees and elbows were rubbed, but she kept biting her lower lip and endured it. After a lot of effort, she finally arrived at Yongzhou City in the evening.
The carriage stopped at the city gate.
Listening to the voice coming from the front, it seems that someone is being interrogated.
Nan Yan couldn't help but reach out and pull aside the curtain to look ahead. She saw the city guards blocking the front suddenly waved their hands. Instantly, several groups of people ran out from the surroundings and surrounded them all at once. What was going on?
Are they going to do something to Zhu Feng?
Nan Yan was startled and quickly stuck her head out, only to see that all the guards accompanying Zhu Feng had dismounted, drawn their swords, and were facing the soldiers guarding the city in front of them.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became tense.
Just then, a laugh broke the tense atmosphere.
Nan Yan looked up and saw that the soldiers in the front had separated into two lines, leaving a path in the middle. A burly man slowly walked towards them.
In the sunlight, Nan Yan recognized the pair of fierce tiger eyes at a glance.
Prince Jing Zhuo.
He actually showed up!
Nan Yan's eyes widened as he slowly walked to the front of the emperor's golden carriage and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live the emperor."
As he knelt down, everyone around him also knelt down.
The golden carriage in front shook slightly. After a while, a hand pulled aside the curtain. Zhu Feng stood on the carriage, looking down at his younger brother. A smile appeared on his handsome face. He said, "Why are you here?"
Zhu Yu knelt on the ground and said, "I learned that the emperor was touring Yongzhou, so I came to greet him."
Zhu Feng smiled and said, "We are brothers after all. It seems that nothing I do can be hidden from you."
After saying this, he waved his hand and said, "Get in the car and follow me to your Prince Jing's Mansion."
Zhu Xuan knelt down to express his gratitude and then got on the golden carriage.
The people brought by Zhu Yan also stood up and mounted their horses, accompanying the emperor forward. Nan Yan was about to lower the curtain and retract, but she felt a pair of eyes staring at her in the crowd.
