Chapter 2711 The beauty of the world is bitter
Seeing Zhu Feng remained silent, she said, "Sometimes, when two people just stare at each other, you can't tell the feelings between them."
“…”
"Relationships need to be developed slowly. Sometimes, they can only be nurtured after encountering some problems or experiencing some turmoil."
Zhu Feng smiled when he heard that.
He said, "Don't forget, Li Bushang is the commander of my Jinyiwei."
“…”
"If something happens to me, then it's no small matter."
“…”
"What do you hope will happen?"
When Nan Yan heard this, her expression changed immediately and she said, "Your Majesty, stop talking nonsense. There are no taboos, no taboos!"
Zhu Feng laughed.
Nan Yan pulled his sleeve again and said, "Quick, spit three times."
"What?"
"Pooh three times, those words just now don't count."
Zhu Feng was originally teasing her, but he didn't expect her to take it seriously. He could only listen to her and said "Pooh" several times. Only then did Nan Yan feel relieved and said, "Okay, it's okay."
Zhu Feng smiled and shook his head.
Said: "Is this how you deal with bad things?"
Nan Yan said, "What bad things are there? It's obviously something unlucky that the emperor said."
“…”
"If someone else said something so unlucky in front of the Emperor, they would have been reported to the Censor-in-Chief and his men long ago."
Zhu Feng said: "I don't mind this."
Nan Yan said, "The Emperor often said that he could never hear good words from me."
Zhu Feng said, "You haven't said a single nice word. From the first time I saw you, your mouth has only served to irritate me."
“…”
Nan Yan was stunned.
She didn't expect Zhu Feng to bring up the past. She couldn't help but think back to the first time she met him... Yes, the first time they met, she said that he would become a tyrant in the future.
I don't know how I survived.
But over the years, Zhu Feng's temper has become better and better, and he laughs more often than before.
Sometimes, he would even be afraid of his subjects.
In Nan Yan's opinion, this is the best appearance of an emperor. Even the most talented and ambitious emperor needs to have fear in his heart. Only in this way can he be cautious in doing things and not act on his own.
A willful emperor may appear powerful on the surface, but in fact, he is a precursor to a tyrant.
He's in such a good mood now...
It must be because of my age.
Nan Yan thought about this and couldn't help but smile with her hands covering her mouth. When Zhu Feng saw her like this, he knew that she must have some bad intentions and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"No, nothing."
Zhu Feng glared at her but didn't say much.
He just sat in the chair, watching the snow falling outside the window, and said slowly: "Although it is a taboo, if there is really something, I will never avoid it."
Nan Yan turned and looked at him.
"emperor?"
Zhu Feng looked at the falling snow, but the light in his eyes seemed very determined.
He said in a deep voice: "Even if the end comes, I only have the future in my eyes."
"emperor!"
This time, Nan Yan was not anxious, but she was really angry.
Call her superstitious or taboo, but it's never good for someone to talk about such things. Especially when it's Zhu Feng, the supreme emperor of Yan Nation, who is still in the prime of life. Why is he talking about a "deadline"?!
Nan Yan's face darkened.
Said: "If Your Majesty says this again, I will be really angry."
“…”
"Why are you talking about this?"
Zhu Feng looked at her for a while, then smiled: "Okay, I just occasionally sighed."
"It's better not to feel too much about this kind of thing."
"Okay, I won't say anymore."
Although he said so, Nan Yan still felt a little depressed. In addition, she had just eaten too much meat, so she felt as if a big stone was pressing on her chest. She reached for the teacup and drank half a cup of strong tea to suppress the feeling.
Zhu Feng asked, "What's wrong?"
Nan Yan said, "Maybe I ate too much mutton just now and I'm sick of it."
"Eat more mutton here, and you won't be afraid of the cold when you return to the capital."
"Um?"
When Nan Yan heard this, she looked up at him and asked, "Are you going back to Beijing?"
"Yes. The major issues here have basically been dealt with. I can leave the remaining minor matters to Chen Zixiao. I am relieved."
"So, when are we leaving?"
"It's basically decided that we'll set off in two weeks. Let's ship some things back first to avoid delaying the team too long. It would be best if we could get back in time for the New Year."
“…”
"Also, we need to send a message back to the capital first. The several major families in Bailong City and their people have moved in. Jingzhao Yin needs to be prepared."
Nan Yan listened and immediately smiled and said, "That's good. I can finally see my children."
Zhu Feng held her hand and squeezed it.
In the east wing, Li Bushang frowned and was forcibly dragged into Xie Jiaojiao's room. He saw a copper pot of boiling hot soup on the table, as well as several plates of fresh fish and mutton. The room was filled with heat and fragrance.
He said, "What?"
"Sit down, sit down."
Xie Jiaojiao smiled, pressed his shoulder, and sat down, saying, "It's snowing today, so it's great to eat meat together around the copper pot."
Li Bushang said, "I don't want to eat."
After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave.
"Why?"
Xie Jiaojiao was anxious and immediately said, "But this was given by the Imperial Concubine."
Li Bushang's steps paused.
He turned back to look at her: "What?"
Xie Jiaojiao walked up to him and said, "This was given to me by the Imperial Concubine."
“…”
"Don't you want to stay and eat with me?"
“…”
Li Bushang frowned again, then said, "Since she gave it to you, just eat it."
He was about to leave again, but just as he turned around to leave, he saw Ruoshui holding an umbrella and walking towards him with two little girls.
She took out a few more plates of meat from the food box and placed them on the table, then said with a smile, "The Imperial Concubine was worried that Miss Xie might not have enough, so she asked me to bring some more. Lord Li, Miss Xie, please enjoy your meal."
After saying that, he left.
Xie Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Look at all this, how can I finish it all by myself?"
“…”
"Did the Imperial Concubine ask you to come and eat with me?"
“…”
Li Bushang said nothing, only frowning as he stared at the copper pots and dishes on the table. At this moment, Xie Jiaojiao walked up to him, tilted her head and smiled, "This is a gift from the Imperial Concubine. Don't you want to accept it?"
“…”
Li Bushan was silent for a while, didn't say anything, just walked over and slowly sat down.
Xie Jiaojiao's eyes were curved with smile. She also sat down, picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks, dipped it twice in the boiling broth, and put it in his bowl.
"Try it and see if it tastes good."
“…”
Li Bushang picked it up expressionlessly and put it into his mouth.
Xie Jiaojiao looked at him with eyes wide open: "How?"
“…”
He still didn't speak.
The meat is tender and the soup is delicious, it is a rare delicacy.
But he couldn't taste the delicious flavor. To him, too many beautiful things in the world were bitter.
