Chapter 2046 Bodhisattva and Monkey
After Zhu Feng took Nan Yan out, they walked onto a long corridor and walked slowly.
Along the way, neither of them spoke.
Nan Yan was naturally worried. Thinking about what the Queen had just said to her, she felt a little strange as to why Zhu Feng came so soon.
From what he just said, it was obvious that he was not really here to take her out for a stroll.
Who told him?
Just as she was wondering, two people came down from the corridor. Without any shelter above their heads, the sun immediately shone down scorching hotly. Nan Yan subconsciously raised her hand to block the sunlight.
Zhu Feng looked at her: "Hot?"
“A little.”
"Well, let's go back."
“…”
"The sun is quite strong now, don't let it make you sick."
But as they were talking, the two of them had already walked along a bluestone path to the backyard. When they looked up, they saw green leaves and red fruits outside the archway. It was indeed a peach orchard. The treetops and branches were full of peaches, and the air was filled with the sweet fragrance of the fruits.
Although Nan Yan was worried, she couldn't help but take a deep breath at this moment.
"Um……"
Zhu Feng glanced at her.
Said: "Want to go and see?"
Nan Yan smiled and said, "I was just thinking of coming here to see the scenery."
Seeing her like this, Zhu Feng had no choice but to order someone to go back and get a fan and an umbrella, and then took her through the door. The backyard was indeed a peach forest as Xu Miaoyin said, but the owner planted these peach trees not for the fruits, but just to enjoy the peach blossoms in March and April every year.
So, the fruits came out, but no one picked them.
The branches are full of peaches, which makes people happy.
Nan Yan walked over and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, this place is so beautiful."
Zhu Feng was originally preoccupied with his thoughts and hurried over to grab Nan Yan away from the Queen. But now, seeing how happy she was at seeing the peach, he couldn't help but laugh.
"If you weren't so pregnant, you would have jumped up the tree by now, right?"
Nan Yan laughed and said, "How did the emperor know that I could climb trees?"
“…”
"When I was at home, I often climbed trees. There was a willow tree in the backyard that was particularly tall, taller than the wall. I often climbed up to look outside."
Zhu Feng laughed and said, "Fortunately, you can't crawl now, otherwise, you would become Monkey King."
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked at the peach forest around her, and finally understood what he meant by "Sun Wukong". She also laughed, walked to a peach tree, leaned over to smell the peaches, and then said, "If I am Sun Wukong, then Your Majesty must be the Tathagata Buddha."
She thought for a moment and then said, "No, it's not Tathagata Buddha, the emperor is a Bodhisattva."
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows: "How did I become a Bodhisattva?"
Nan Yan laughed and said, "When has Monkey King ever encountered any serious trouble without being saved by the Bodhisattva?"
“…”
Upon hearing this, Zhu Feng's eyes flickered.
He did not respond, but walked over slowly. There was a tree branch between the two of them, on which were two or three round peaches.
He reached out and took it down, handing it to Nan Yan.
Then he said, "I wish you were half as clever as Sun Wukong."
Nan Yan took the peach and said, "Why am I not smart anymore?"
Zhu Feng said, "When Monkey King gets into trouble, it's not the Bodhisattva who comes to save him."
“…”
Nan Yan felt a little strange.
Why didn’t the Bodhisattva come to save us?
She was about to ask, but she heard Zhu Feng say, "It was Monkey King who knew to ask for help."
“…”
"I am not a Bodhisattva, and a Bodhisattva cannot see through everything."
“…”
"Sun Wukong knew to go find him because he knew that the one he could rely on was the Bodhisattva."
“…”
"You also have to understand that your reliance is on me."
