Chapter 671: Can an emperor be so good-tempered?
Monk smiled gently and said, "I'd also like to take a look at this—the Imperial Concubine of Yan Country."
As he said that, he turned to look at Nan Yan: "Your Highness, are you used to living here?"
Nan Yan said calmly: "Not bad."
Ever since the "confrontation" between the two in the carriage, Nan Yan had a vague feeling that this person was not easy to deal with. Although he looked gentle and a little sick, his mind worked very quickly.
So, she didn't talk much to him.
Princess Baoyin, on the other hand, looked behind Monk and said, "Brother Emperor, why did you come here alone?"
"Um?"
"Where are your guards?"
Monk smiled and said, "This is the palace, not outside. Why do you bring so many guards?"
"But, Brother Arslan said that you can't be alone."
“…”
"Even in the palace—"
Having said this, she paused and didn't continue.
Nan Yan glanced at them.
Although the words were not finished, the meaning seemed to have been expressed.
Even in the palace, Munch could not be alone.
Is there danger in the palace?
Isn’t he the emperor of the Kingdom of Dian?
Come to think of it, this place is his territory, how could it be dangerous?
Nan Yan felt vaguely puzzled, but Monk just smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Don't listen to your brother Arslan's nonsense."
"Yeah?"
"Of course, this is our home."
"oh……"
"By the way, I will hold a banquet tomorrow night to welcome the Imperial Concubine from Yan Country."
Nan Yan raised her eyebrows and looked at him.
Monk said to Princess Baoyin seriously, "I'll leave the singing and dancing to you."
“…”
"I can only feel at ease if I leave it to you."
Upon hearing him say this, Princess Baoyin immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, brother Emperor. Leave it to me, and you don't have to worry."
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
Obviously, it's time to get busy preparing for tomorrow's dinner.
Nan Yan looked at her back and was a little surprised, because when they met in Yan Country before, Princess Baoyin's stubborn and wild temperament left a deep impression on her.
However, this little wildcat-like woman was as docile as a domestic cat in front of the seemingly weak Monk.
At this time, Monk also withdrew his gaze from Baoyin's disappearing back.
He smiled and looked at Nan Yan.
The two looked at each other, and then he said, "Is the Imperial Concubine interested in tea?"
Drink tea?
Nan Yan didn't know what he was up to, but since she was here, it was inevitable that she would meet and talk with them.
She herself was also very interested in them.
So he said lightly: "If there is good tea."
Monk raised his hand and made a "please" gesture, and Nan Yan followed him out.
After a while, they came to a river.
When Nan Yan entered Kulun City, she saw that there was a river running through the city and many buildings were built along the river.
Unexpectedly, this river even flowed into the imperial palace.
However, it should be a tributary. The water flow is not so fast, and the river water is clear. You can see some small fish swimming happily in it.
After walking along the river for a while, Monk led her to a small pavilion by the river.
There are tables and chairs in the pavilion, and on the tables are teacups, teapots, and some snacks.
Nan Yan was a little surprised. It seemed that he had been prepared for a long time and came to treat her.
"Your Highness, please take a seat."
As soon as Monk raised his hand, Nan Yan also sat down at the stone table.
Monk personally picked up the teapot and teacups, poured two cups of tea, and placed one in front of Nan Yan. He smiled and said, "You Yan people like to drink tea. How about trying this tea?"
Nan Yan picked it up and took a sip.
A bit unexpected.
It turned out to be the sweet and delicious sparrow tongue.
If it were in Yan Country, it would not be difficult to drink such tea, but this is Neng Country, the journey is long, and Nan Yan also knows the local customs and people here. They all live a relatively rough life.
Munch, wearing silk clothes, built a small pavilion by the river and sat in the pavilion drinking tea.
This emperor actually lived such an elegant life.
It surprised her a little.
Monk asked her, "How?"
Nan Yan looked at the clear tea in the cup and nodded: "Very good."
Monk smiled and said, "It's not easy to get the approval of the Imperial Concubine."
Nan Yan asked, "Your Majesty, you brought me here, didn't you, just to get me to approve of your cup of tea?"
Monk smiled.
He said: "Nothing, I just want to see you."
"Look at me?"
"Well, I just spoke with King Nanli for a while and learned that you have experienced many hardships along the way."
“…”
"I didn't think this matter through."
“…”
"So, I specially used tea instead of wine to apologize to the imperial concubine."
After saying that, he raised his glass.
However, Nan Yan didn't raise her glass. She just looked at him coldly and said, "Lack of consideration? Lack of consideration, you kidnapped my grandmother, such an old woman, from Yan Country to Dian Country? Do you know that it almost cost her her life?"
Monk said gently, "I'm sorry."
“…”
"I really did something wrong in this matter."
“…”
An emperor actually apologized again and again in a servile manner, which made Nan Yan a little speechless.
She really didn't expect that the emperor could be so good-tempered.
If it was Zhu Feng——
I'm afraid the table has been cracked by him now.
Just thinking about this, she despised herself in her heart again. Could it be that she had been with Zhu Feng for too long and was used to his bad temper, so she felt something was wrong when he had a good temper?
How can this be?
Then she looked up at Monk again.
Monk said sincerely, "I apologize to you."
“…”
"This time, I had no choice but to let Prince Nanli take the old lady away."
“…”
"However, we have a very important matter concerning the survival of our country, so this is the only option left."
“…”
Nan Yan looked at him for a moment and said, "Is it related to the survival of the country?"
Monk said to her, "I heard that this time, you went to a lake and found a monument there."
Nan Yan's face darkened slightly.
Of course she knew that Arslan would definitely report this matter to their emperor.
However, she didn't know what the outcome would be if this matter continued to develop.
Monk asked, "Does the Imperial Concubine know who the 'Princess Tana' engraved on the stone tablet is?"
Nan Yan said, "I heard that she is the aunt of King Nanli."
"She is also my aunt."
