Chapter 2912 Don’t worry, I won’t let go
Nan Yan seemed to be unable to fully believe it. She lowered her head and reached out to touch Zhu Feng's chest. Although the room was pitch black and she could only barely see the two people's figures, her slender fingers immediately found the bulge on his heart.
It is the scar left after the knife wound has scabbed over.
Nan Yan touched it carefully for a long time and confirmed that the wetness was just sweat and the wound was not cracked. Only then did she feel completely relieved.
She was about to pull her hand back, but Zhu Feng suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand.
He pressed it against his heart again.
"Um?"
Nan Yan looked down at him in surprise. Naturally, she couldn't see the expression on his face. She could only barely see that in the pitch-black darkness, Zhu Feng's eyes were exceptionally bright, staring at her intently.
"Your Majesty...what's wrong?"
She asked softly.
Zhu Feng didn't say anything, but just put his hand on the back of her hand and pressed it hard against his heart. Nan Yan's palm could not only feel his chest rising and falling with his rapid breathing, but also the heart buried deep under his chest, beating again and again.
At such a close distance, it felt like the heart was in the palm of her hand.
Suddenly, Nan Yan seemed to understand something.
She whispered, "Your Majesty, are you going to give this to me? Your Majesty, are you going to give this heart to me?"
“…”
Zhu Feng still didn't speak.
But his hands were a little stronger.
Nan Yan understood.
She smiled and hugged him tightly with her other hand, as if she wanted to merge his hot body into her own, and whispered, "Don't worry, I won't let go."
Zhu Feng still didn't speak.
But Nan Yan could feel something warm flowing down his face and dripping onto her body, but soon, in the two people's passionate embrace, it turned into a trace of silent warmth, blending into their blood and bones, and could no longer be separated.

When Nan Yan opened her eyes again, it was already dawn.
But the other side of the bed was empty.
Nan Yan subconsciously reached out and touched the empty bed. There seemed to be a hint of warmth left, but she was the only one left in the room.
Zhu Feng has already left.
Nan Yan lay there blankly, as if recalling what happened last night, or as if waiting for her sore and weak limbs to gather strength again. But after a long time, she still didn't have the strength to stand up. Instead, she felt her throat a little itchy and a little painful.
Then he called softly: "Someone come..."
As soon as he shouted, he started coughing uncontrollably.
Fortunately, Aunt Tongyun had been waiting outside for a long time. When she heard her voice, she pushed the door open and came in. She helped Nan Yan to turn sideways, hurried forward to help her sit up against the head of the bed, and also took two soft cushions to place behind her.
"What does the Queen want?"
"water……"
"yes."
Aunt Tongyun hurriedly brought a cup of hot tea. Nan Yan drank several sips in succession, and finally moistened her throat, but her throat was still a little uncomfortable. She was afraid that she caught a cold after being caught in the rain last night.
But she didn't have time to say this, and only asked: "Where is the emperor?"
Aunt Tongyun held the cup and said softly, "It's been a while since I left. I went to the morning court."
"Why don't you wake me up?"
"The Emperor gave instructions before he left, saying that the Empress was tired last night and asked her to rest for a while longer."
When she said this, Aunt Tongyun blushed and looked at her with a smile.
Nan Yan couldn't help but cough lightly.
However, as a concubine, this kind of thing is not shameful. She has served the emperor in the bedchamber many times. If she has to blush, it is not this time.
He took another sip from the cup.
After thinking for a while, he asked, "How was things in the cold palace last night?"
Aunt Tongyun glanced back, making sure no one was outside the doorway. Then she said softly, "Madam Qin... is dead. Her body was transported out of the palace overnight, and Eunuch Yu handled it. The gate to the cold palace is now locked, and no one is allowed in or out."
Nan Yan nodded slightly.
That Nanny Su had some dealings with Concubine Qin back then, and the relationship between Qin Ruolan and Concubine Qin made her always take care of Qin Ruolan. Otherwise, a criminal woman in the cold palace would not have been able to live so comfortably.
So this matter still needs to be taken care of.
By now, there are really not many people left from the Prince of Yan's Mansion, and it is almost impossible for Zhu Chengxuan to know his own life experience. The only thing he has to do is to bury this matter again, and eventually, let it completely fade away in the dust of time.
"Why……"
Nan Yan couldn't help but sigh softly.
Aunt Tongyun looked at her and said softly, "Why are you sighing, Madam?"
"Nothing, I just feel, feel..."
Nan Yan thought about it for a long time, feeling troubled. Then she said softly, "It's a bit uncomfortable."
Aunt Tongyun looked at her quietly for a while.
She is an old person who has been following Nan Yan since she entered the palace. She knows more about some past events and Qin Ruolan than others.
He whispered softly, "My Lady, it's over."
“…”
"The Emperor has forgotten, if Your Majesty still hasn't, wouldn't that be a bit hypocritical?"
“…”
"If people can forgive others, they should forgive themselves even more."
After hearing her words, Nan Yan thought for a while and let it go. She smiled and said, "You're right. If I can let others go, why should I not let myself go? I should care more about myself."
Aunt Tongyun nodded.
At this moment, Tingfu walked to the door and said in a low voice with some urgency: "Empress!"
Judging from his tone, it seemed like something had happened.
Nan Yan asked Aunt Tong Yun to get her a piece of clothing and then let him in. Ting Fu walked in quickly with his head lowered, knelt down some distance from the bed, and kowtowed to greet him.
Nan Yan asked, "What's the matter? Why are you coming here in such a hurry?"
Tingfu lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, at the court this morning, the Emperor officially announced the appointment of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei as Crown Prince!"
