Chapter 1539: Don’t you want to get married?
"The reason why I'm so indecisive and hesitant is precisely because I also need to go there and figure some things out."
“…”
"But with my status as a concubine alone, it's impossible."
“…”
"Only when the Emperor wants to go somewhere and he's willing to take me with him, can I go there."
Therefore, Ran Xiaoyu's words also touched Nan Yan's heart.
She murmured, "Yumen Pass... Yumen Pass..."
Ran Xiaoyu's breathing became tense as she asked, "So, Your Majesty, are you really still planning to lead the Emperor to Yumen Pass?"
“…”
Having said that, it seems to be a natural progression.
But Nan Yan couldn't feel at ease at all.
Her eyebrows were twisted into a knot, not to mention her heart, which was like a tangled mess. She subconsciously withdrew her hands and hugged her head, saying worriedly: "Let me think about it, let me think about it again..."
Seeing her like this, Ran Xiaoyu couldn't say anything.
He could only reach out and brush the messy hair back from her forehead, gently stroking her hair, and said softly, "Your Majesty... there's no need to be too anxious. After all, it's not necessary yet."
“…”
"Your Majesty, you still have some time to think about it, don't you?"
Hearing her comforting herself like this, although the troubles in her heart could not be solved, it finally allowed Nan Yan to breathe a sigh of relief.
She smiled bitterly and said, "Xiaoyu, luckily, I still have you by my side."
“…”
"Otherwise, I don't know what to do."
Ran Xiaoyu said softly, "This slave will always be by your side."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
“…”
"Who can stay with whom forever? Besides, you will leave the palace in the future."
Ran Xiaoyu said: "I will not leave the palace."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Don't you want to get married?"
“……!”
Hearing this, Ran Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, and seeing Nan Yan's half-smile, she immediately understood what was going on. Her ears suddenly turned red and she said, "Your Majesty, you are making fun of this servant again."
"Who said I made fun of you?"
“…”
"I've been helping you think about this. Didn't you know where Ye Zheng went before?"
Hearing this, Ran Xiaoyu's eyes lit up: "Where did he go?"
Nan Yan smiled and said, "What's wrong? Didn't you say you wouldn't get married?"
“……!”
Hearing Nan Yan making fun of her again, Ran Xiaoyu immediately became angry and stood up to leave, but Nan Yan grabbed her wrist and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, don't be angry, I was wrong."
Ran Xiaoyu turned away and ignored her.
However, with her skills, it would be easy for her to break free from Nan Yan's hand. She was just... pretending.
Nan Yan knew this, so she hurriedly coaxed her with soft words for a while. Ran Xiaoyu blushed and sat down again. Nan Yan stopped joking and said, "Do you remember when you were at the Gu family and the emperor received that 800-mile express?"
Ran Xiaoyu was stunned: "Is it Ye Zheng?"
"That's right."
"He's—"
"In Shazhou Guard, one of the seven guards in Guanxi."
Hearing this, Ran Xiaoyu's face suddenly changed.
Even though she was just a little palace maid following the imperial concubine, Zhu Feng's new policies had already affected the entire Great Yan Dynasty. His actions on the border were so big that even the children on the street knew that the emperor wanted to reopen the trade route to the Western Regions. The importance of the Guanxi Seven Guards there was no less than that of Peking at the border.
