Chapter 2988 Your Majesty, what did you find out?
Nan Yan said: "Because, because I am in the same group with them."
After saying this, she subconsciously grasped the quilt wrapped around her body with both hands. Although it was almost summer and the nights were no longer so cold, and she was still feeling hot just now, for some reason, at this moment, she shivered inexplicably.
Some even didn't dare to look up at Zhu Feng's eyes.
In fact, it shouldn't be this time.
After deciding to stay with him and never leave, she thought about confessing to Zhu Feng countless times. She also imagined countless times what she should say and do to make him less angry about what happened before.
After all, the emperor's wrath can shatter people into pieces.
But she didn't want to be torn to pieces. No matter what happened in the past or what might happen in the future, she still wanted to stay by his side in this life and accompany him until old age.
Therefore, no matter how many times she prepared herself mentally, she never dared to confess to him with the belief that she would die.
I never thought that I would confess to him under such circumstances.
There are wolves in front and tigers behind, and dangers are lurking on all sides.
This, no matter how anyone looked at it, at any time, was not the best time for her to confess.
But she still spoke.
Because if she didn't confess, she was really worried that Zhu Feng would insist on having his own way and really risk entering Xingluo Lake himself. The dangers there were simply beyond their imagination.
After saying this, she first closed her eyes, lowered her head, and even stretched her neck, like a prisoner about to be beheaded on the execution ground, waiting for the verdict of fate.
But the next moment, she opened her eyes again.
He raised his head and looked at Zhu Feng.
No matter what, no matter what his verdict on her was, she still wanted to see it with her own eyes. After all, this was the path she had walked and the one she had chosen, and she should bear it all by herself.
However, the expected rage did not come.
There wasn't even a hint of surprise on Zhu Feng's face. He just raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her intently.
Not anger, nor heartache.
Just look at her.
Nan Yan was silent for a while, and when she sensed that he was also silent, she gritted her teeth and said softly, "Your Majesty, please don't disbelieve me. I wouldn't joke about such a thing."
“…”
"I say these words because I can no longer hide it."
“…”
"If this continues, the Emperor will truly be in danger. The dangers within Xingluo Lake are not only the same as those faced by Emperor Gao back then, but may also be beyond the Emperor's expectations."
Zhu Feng continued to look at her quietly. After a long while, he slowly said, "I understand."
“…”
This time, it was Nan Yan who was stunned.
knew?
What kind of reaction is this?
I am in the same group as the people from Xingluo Lake. For him, can he accept just such a simple "I know"?
Or—
When Nan Yan looked at him again, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her voice became hoarse from being choked by something. She said, "Does the Emperor know?"
“…”
"The Emperor already knew about this?"
“…”
"Has His Majesty known this a long time ago, or—"
Sensing a hint of fear in her panic, Zhu Feng didn't scare her this time. Instead, he sighed and smiled, then said, "Nan Yan, do you know why sometimes I like to discuss government affairs with you, but never allow the harem to interfere?"
I don't know why he said this.
Nan Yan shook her head cautiously.
Zhu Feng smiled and said, "Because you are indeed very smart. I believe that there are many smart women among women, and some even have great wisdom."
“…”
"But your experience and vision are not yet enough to make decisions in the court."
Nan Yan still looked at him cautiously.
This is, of course, correct.
Zhu Feng always liked to discuss political affairs with himself. He never shied away from this point. His words would have some influence on his decisions, but he never did things according to his own words.
In fact, more often than not, he slowly guided himself during discussions on political affairs.
Even when he was assassinated and unconscious, and I was ruling the country from behind the scenes, although I was in charge of major court affairs, in fact, every single thing was arranged by him in advance, and I was just a firm executor.
Nan Yan knew very well that without his guidance, she would not be able to make such a decision based on her own experience and vision.
But now he says this is——
Nan Yan looked at him carefully: "The emperor is saying, you——"
Zhu Feng said: "Actually, it can be summed up in one sentence: observe more, think more, and be less emotional."
“…”
“Also, don’t just look at the present, and don’t just think about the present.”
Nan Yan's mind was still a little confused.
Zhu Feng looked at her calmly for a while. In fact, Nan Yan might not be unable to think of it, but she herself would feel fear about some things. If a person is afraid in his heart, he would subconsciously avoid thinking about it and facing it.
Zhu Feng said softly, "Back then, you and Li Bushan disappeared around here. Did you think that after you went back and had such a scene with me, I wouldn't investigate. After he kidnapped you, where did you go? What happened to you?"
“……!”
Nan Yan's heartbeat sank.
At this time, she also understood why it was difficult for women to have their own place in the court. It was not only because of experience and vision, but also because women were too easily manipulated by emotions. At that time, she actually thought that by coming back and making a scene with Zhu Feng, she could cover up what happened that night.
However, Zhu Feng seemed to be furious with her and immediately broke camp and left, but he still did not forget what happened that night and sent people to check again.
A truly strong person knows what he should do no matter how angry he is.
It seems that I still have a lot to learn.
But now, Nan Yan's breathing became cautious. She looked at Zhu Feng with slightly red eyes, as if she was afraid that Zhu Feng would suddenly become furious at the next moment.
After all, this is not a matter that any emperor can let go easily.
However, Zhu Feng reached out and gently pressed her stiff shoulder, then said, "Don't be afraid. If I were really angry with you and wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have to wait so many years."
Nan Yan's voice trembled slightly: "Then Your Majesty, what did you find out?"
Zhu Feng looked at her and said calmly, "I know that you were taken away by a group of people and put on a boat. After that, the boat left and went upstream."
“…”
"As for where upstream is, there is no need for me to explain."
