Chapter 847 Little Princess Fire Extinguisher
"Is it," she said carefully and softly, "still about the King of Wei?"
Zhu Feng didn't even look at her. He just lowered his head to look at the little Anping in his arms and said calmly, "Don't worry about this matter."
“…”
Nan Yan hesitated for a moment.
Normally, when Zhu Feng said such words, he would have a cold face and a hard voice, making people afraid to speak again. But at this time, because he was holding little Anping, a smile still appeared on his face, and his voice was even involuntarily gentle.
Gives people a sense of leeway.
Then, Nan Yan whispered again, "The harem has become so chaotic. I've also heard that Concubine Kang and the others have come to ask the Emperor to thoroughly investigate this matter and clear the Prince of Wei's name. As a noble concubine, I have the authority to assist in the management of the six palaces. How can I just ignore it?"
“…”
Zhu Feng looked up at her.
Under normal circumstances, he would probably have bluntly ordered her to stop talking.
But, just at this moment, little Anping in his arms let out a baby voice, "Woo!", and when Zhu Feng heard it, he couldn't help but smile at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
He lowered his head: "What's wrong? What happened to Anping?"
“Ooooooo…”
"Hehe, you, what are you yelling about?"
Nan Yan took the opportunity to say, "The Emperor gave me the power to assist in managing the six palaces. It is power, but it is also a responsibility."
“…”
"Since Concubine Kang and the others wish to thoroughly investigate this matter, then I have an unwelcome request."
Zhu Feng looked up at her, as if he already knew what she was going to say next.
"You, want to investigate this matter?"
"Your Majesty, please grant my consent."
“…”
Zhu Feng frowned, but just as he frowned, little Anping in his arms used his little hand to touch his chin, and his expression immediately relaxed.
He thought for a moment and said, "Do you really want to get involved in this matter? But you have to know that this matter originally has nothing to do with you."
“…”
"If you take care of it, it's your business."
Although he said so, Nan Yan immediately heard a hint of pity in his words.
She whispered, "Your Majesty doesn't want me to be burdened or implicated, right?"
"snort."
"But Your Majesty, I am the Imperial Concubine. The Empress has been imprisoned to accompany the Prince of Wei. I have no choice but to take responsibility for this matter."
“…”
"Besides, Your Majesty also knows that I have little to do with the people involved in this matter. If I can find out the truth, Your Majesty should be able to trust me and won't be biased towards anyone."
Zhu Feng was silent for a while.
He felt little Anping in his arms grabbing his clothes with his little hands and wriggling on his chest, as if gently tickling his heart.
It made it impossible for him to be hard-hearted.
After a long while, he said, "Then, what about Anping?"
“…”
"As a mother, you just don't care about her?"
Nan Yan hurriedly took advantage of the situation and said, "Didn't the Emperor say before that he is also Anping's father? He can't just ignore her after she gives birth."
“…”
"Besides, she sticks to the emperor much closer than her mother, me."
Hearing this, Zhu Feng couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly.
Nan Yan said softly, "Your Majesty, please take care of Anping."
“…”
Zhu Feng raised his head and glared at her: "You!"
Hearing this, Nan Yan immediately knew that he agreed.
She quickly stood up and saluted him: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhu Feng said with a stern face, "I've made it clear to you, this matter has little to do with you. You can investigate, but you must be sensible."
"I understand. I'll leave first."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out.
"Hey? Where are you going?" Zhu Feng held An Ping, whose eyelids had already begun to droop, in his arms. His voice couldn't help but lowered: "Are you going to leave the child alone?"
"Since the Emperor has ordered me to thoroughly investigate this matter, I must first go to the prison and ask the King of Wei."
"You're going to jail?"
"Yes, that place is so cold and damp, of course we can't let Anping go in."
Nan Yan said, and then whispered: "Children can't bear it."
Zhu Feng said: "That's true."
Nan Yan hurriedly asked, "Then, can I bring some warm clothes for the King of Wei?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her and said, "The Queen has already taken it away."
"Oh, then—"
"You go ahead."
"yes."
Nan Yan nodded, turned around and left the imperial study.
Zhu Feng was still sitting in his seat, looking down at little Anping who was slowly falling asleep in his arms, with a gentle smile on his face.
However, when he turned around and looked at the imperial edict on the table that had not yet been stamped with the imperial seal, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
At this time, He Yi walked in from outside.
He just saw Nan Yan go out, but the two did not meet. He just paused for a moment, as if he thought of something, and walked in with a faint smile on his lips. When he bent down to salute Zhu Feng, that smile had disappeared.
"emperor."
"You're here."
"The imperial edict that the emperor asked me to draft earlier—"
As he spoke, he looked at the imperial desk, where the document was still lying, and said, "That is, the imperial edict that ordered Duke Chengguo's son, Master Wu Ding, to go to Beiping to replace General Xu, does it still need to be sent to the Secretariat?"
“…”
Zhu Feng was silent for a moment.
He Yi lowered his head and waited calmly.
Although at this time, his heart was far from as calm as he appeared.
After all, this matter was much more complicated than anything they had encountered before, and its severity far exceeded that of an anti-poem.
Because this anti-poem also involved relatives and military generals...
You have to know that Zhu Feng himself was the prince who was stationed in Peking and had a large army under his command. He seized the throne through the Jingnan Campaign. If he could do this, other generals could do the same.
This was originally the most tense string in his heart.
Now, this incident almost broke the thread!
If, as the Queen said, the anti-poem was not written by the King of Wei, but was written by someone else to frame him, then the manipulator behind the scenes is no ordinary person!
He calculated everyone's identity, everyone's personality, and even the dark side of Zhu Feng's heart that he couldn't show to others!
This person is so scary!
Before, He Yi was even worried that Zhu Feng would take advantage of this opportunity to massacre the court and kill all the officials who had been against his new policies.
Now, we can only hope that the Imperial Concubine and the pink and tender baby in the Emperor's arms - Princess Anping, can suppress this flame.
“…”
Zhu Feng was silent for a long time.
He protected little Anping with one hand and tucked the slightly loose swaddling clothes with the other.
He looks like a truly loving father.
When he spoke, his voice was low and gentle, but what he said startled He Yi slightly: "Do you think I should issue that imperial edict?"
