Chapter 2407 Is it him who is close to you?
Zhu Feng glared at her: "You know this again?"
“…”
Nan Yan also knew that it was impossible to talk about these things with a silly father now, so she could only shake her head gently and mutter softly: "Who hasn't been through this since childhood?"
“……?”
Zhu Feng frowned slightly.
Although he was completely focused on the fact that his darling was led astray by those bad guys at such a young age and even kissed Liu Yueze, which made him furious, Nan Yan's soft mutter seemed to bring his mind back.
He turned to look at her: "What did you say?"
Nan Yan only then realized that he had heard her mumbling.
He waved his hands hurriedly: "No, nothing."
Zhu Feng's face darkened and he said, "Don't forget, deceiving me is the crime of deceiving the emperor!"
“…”
"What the hell is going on!"
“…”
Nan Yan didn't expect that he actually cared so much.
She gave a bitter smile and then said softly, "Then, I say, Your Majesty, please don't be angry."
“…”
Zhu Feng glared at her again.
Said: "You speak first!"
“…”
"Who were you close to when you were a child?"
Nan Yan smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I'm close. I haven't been close to my brothers and sisters since I was a child. So at that time, if someone was kind to me, I would naturally remember it in my heart."
“…”
"Besides, that person is also very outstanding."
The more she spoke, the uglier Zhu Feng's expression became. He didn't dare to continue and simply said, "Anyway, it's just a little girl's dream."
Zhu Feng's face was almost stained with anger.
He said in a deep voice: "Who is it?"
Nan Yan hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Does the emperor still remember—Oh, I'm afraid the emperor doesn't remember either."
"Um?"
Hearing her say this, Zhu Feng's eyes flickered slightly.
However, he remained calm and just said, "Stop hesitating and speak quickly."
Nan Yan sighed and said, "I have mentioned this to the Emperor before, my uncle..."
Having said this, she paused again. Although in her heart she already knew that the true identity of her uncle was most likely her biological father, she just hadn't found him officially yet, so she couldn't bring herself to call him "father".
She continued, "Back then, when the Emperor first ascended the throne, he mentioned his vision for the Western Regions to me. At that time, the Emperor had no one available, so I mentioned someone."
“…”
"That person's name is Yan Ye."
"Yan...Ye..."
This name made Zhu Feng's eyes flicker again.
However, Nan Yan didn't notice his expression and continued, "This man is both civil and military, and is proficient in the writing and languages of various countries. He has always been by my uncle's side when he was on a diplomatic mission to the Western Regions."
Zhu Feng frowned slightly and said, "Didn't you say—"
"Um?"
Nan Yan looked up at him.
Zhu Feng coughed lightly and said, "So, where did this person go? Is he still in contact with you?"
Nan Yan said, "After my uncle passed away, he gradually stopped communicating with our family."
“…”
"Especially after my father passed away, he came less and less."
“…”
"However, when I was very young—probably when Xinping was about the same age—he would often come to the Si family's house to play with me."
As Zhu Feng listened, his expression darkened again.
"Is he the one who is close to you?"
