Chapter 3162 Sachet and Jade Clothes
At this time, Ruoshui and the others were getting closer and closer, and asked in confusion: "My Lady, who are you talking to?"
Nan Yan was a little embarrassed for a moment, not knowing whether she should talk to Shi Tianlu first or stop Ruoshui and the others from coming over. Shi Tianlu was not in a hurry. He just smiled and reached out to take the sachet from her hand.
Said: "This one still belongs to me."
After saying that, he took a step back, and then another.
The swirling mist immediately wrapped him up, and the thin figure quickly disappeared from Nan Yan's sight.
"Elder Shi...?"
Nan Yan was about to say something, but Ruoshui had already come over with Yuntong. Seeing Nan Yan standing there with a look of reluctance and confusion on her face, Ruoshui hurried to her side: "My Lady, what's wrong with you? Who are you talking to?"
“…”
Nan Yan didn't say anything, just looked at the swirling clouds in a daze.
Ruoshui also looked in the direction she was looking, but there was no one there.
She felt a little dazed and said softly: "My Lady, what's wrong? There's no one here..."
Nan Yan looked at the drifting mist, then looked down at her palms. They were empty, with nothing in them, as if everything that had just happened was just a dream of hers, so unreal.
After a long while, she turned around and looked at Ruoshui, saying, "It's okay."
Ruoshui was still a little scared.
After all, there are so many stone tablets of immortals here, giving people the feeling of being in a huge tomb. Coupled with the clouds and mist, it has a feeling of being in another world. It is not surprising to encounter immortals or ghosts here.
She said hurriedly, "My Lady, the servants have already cleaned up the stone tablet over there. It's getting late, so we should go back."
Nan Yan looked back again.
Nodding: "Let's go."
They took the raft back. Nan Yan was a little dazed along the way. When she returned to the room where they lived, as soon as she opened the door, she saw Zhu Feng sitting inside, flipping through a book in his hand.
Hearing the voice, he looked up at her: "You're back."
"emperor."
As soon as Nan Yan saw him, she seemed to have regained her composure. She walked over and saluted him, "The Emperor has returned."
Zhu Feng put down the booklet in his hand, took her hand and asked her to sit next to him.
He said, "I just found out you were there when I came back. Why didn't you tell me?"
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is busy, and I want to go over and take a look."
Even so, she was indeed being a bit too presumptuous.
Especially just now, when she pushed the door open, Zhu Feng saw that she looked a little dazed, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe her as distraught. Even at this moment, when she was sitting next to him, her mind seemed to be wandering.
Zhu Feng asked, "What's wrong? Did you encounter something?"
Nan Yan looked up at him for a moment and said softly, "I was over there and met Shi Tianlu."
"Shi Tianlu?"
Zhu Feng frowned slightly and said, "Is it the one you mentioned, Luo Xingwen's subordinate, whom you saw in Tiangang Lianhuanwu?"
"yes."
"He actually came here? What is he doing?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry. He's just old and suddenly has to leave the place where he has lived for so many years. It's inevitable that he feels a little melancholy and wants to come here to take a look."
"Come and take a look here?"
Zhu Feng narrowed his eyes and asked, "What did he come to see at the Imperial Mausoleum?"
Nan Yan glanced at him again, then whispered, "He, he came here to see Concubine Qin."
“……?!”
Zhu Feng's pupils suddenly widened, then suddenly shrank: "Empress Qin...?"
After silently repeating these three words, he seemed to understand something. After all, Concubine Qin's origin was not a secret. Especially when Qin Zhengqi was still the Prince's Junior Tutor, Zhu Feng had suffered a lot at his hands and could not forget it even if he wanted to.
Since Concubine Qin was born in Xingluo Lake, the relationship between Shi Tianlu and her is self-evident.
These are all forgotten memories.
Right now, what he cares about most is the person in front of him.
So he asked, "He didn't do anything to you, did he?"
Nan Yan smiled and shook her head, saying, "Your Majesty, don't worry. He just wants to find a place to enjoy his old age. The opportunity to escape unscathed is a blessing given to them by God and Your Majesty. How could he dare to do anything to me?"
Zhu Feng nodded: "That's good."
Nan Yan was silent for a moment, then continued, "It's just that he showed me something."
Zhu Feng asked, "What is it?"
Nan Yan was silent for a while, with a clear expression of hesitation on her face. Zhu Feng didn't know what was making her so indecisive, so he asked softly, "What is it?"
Nan Yan looked up at him and whispered, "A sachet."
“…”
"A sachet almost identical to the one the Emperor holds."
“…”
Zhu Feng's breath sank again, and he subconsciously reached into his arms.
After Nan Yan copied the sachet and returned it to him, he almost always carried it with him and never left it. Now seeing the small sachet again, Nan Yan was even more certain that this sachet and the one in Shi Tianlu's hand were definitely made by the same person.
Zhu Feng asked, "You mean Shi Tianlu also has one?"
"yes."
"Did he tell me who gave him the sachet?"
"He, he actually doesn't know. The sachet was handed to him by someone else during the year when Emperor Gao and Luo Xingwen had their final battle."
“…”
"But after that, they took over. In fact, he was trapped in Xingluo Lake and could never get out. So, he didn't figure out who gave it to him."
“…”
"But he said with certainty that this sachet was made by Concubine Qin."
Zhu Feng frowned.
"You mean, this sachet, a relic left by the Queen Mother, is also—"
"It was also done by Concubine Qin."
Zhu Feng took a deep breath.
He has now recovered most of his memory. In fact, even if he had not recovered his memory, he remembered very clearly that when Emperor Gao and Luo Xingwen had the decisive battle, Concubine Qin had passed away three years ago.
However, there was one, no, two sachets that came from her hands. One was delivered to Shi Tianlu of Xingluo Lake, and the other was delivered to his mother, the late Queen Chen.
The incense in this sachet is benzoin, which has not appeared in the territory of Yan State since the border was closed after Emperor Gao founded the country.
What does this mean?
Zhu Feng asked, "Is he trying to tell us that Concubine Qin is not dead, she is still alive?"
“…”
"Living somewhere in the Western Regions."
“…”
"Is it even possible that she is in Parthia?"
Nan Yan said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember that the envoy from the Parthian Empire came to ask for a jade robe with gold threads?"
