Chapter 980: An almost pathological stubbornness
With a loud bang.
It was like a thunder exploding beside her, and Nan Yan suddenly closed her eyes.
Although I closed my eyes, I didn't dare to let go of my hands and held on to the handrail beside me, but I still felt my whole body shaking violently.
In fact, it was not her who was shaking violently, but the boat she was on.
The sound just now that sounded like thunder was not real thunder, but the astonishing roar made by huge waves hitting the hull of the ship.
Because they were going to the near sea and boarding the ship of the person who was doing business with them, no ocean-going ship was arranged. This ship was just an ordinary large ship.
However, although it is a big ship, once it reaches the sea, it is just a leaf in the ocean.
The ship was lifted up and pushed down by the huge waves, and was tossed around countless times. Although the hull was strong and could withstand such winds and waves, the people sitting in the boat suffered.
Nanyan had never been tossed around like this before.
Everything in front of my eyes was dark, and all I could hear was the roaring sound of waves. It was as if many people were shouting something in my ears. The noisy feeling made me feel like vomiting.
She could only hold on to the handrail tightly.
But, I didn't have much strength.
When a huge wave hit and almost overturned the boat, she finally lost her grip on the handrail and fell to the side.
"ah--"
At this moment, a hand suddenly reached out and embraced her.
"careful!"
Then she heard Jian Ruocheng's anxious voice ringing in her ears. Nan Yan originally thought that she was going to hit the wall, but instead she bumped into a solid yet gentle embrace.
The next moment, he felt a shock and a muffled groan came from above his head.
She opened her eyes and looked.
It was Jian Ruocheng, and he held himself in his arms.
But his back hit the wall hard, and his brows were twisted in pain.
"you--"
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide in surprise, not knowing what to say, but Jian Ruocheng had already lowered his head to look at her, his breath twitching in pain, and he whispered, "Are you okay?"
“…”
Of course it's okay.
Nan Yan frowned and looked at him. After a long while, she said, "You——"
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
As if he knew what she was worried about, he smiled at her.
For some reason, although she saw him smiling, Nan Yan could clearly feel the pain in that smile, and it was not just the pain in her body.
She gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry."
Jian Ruocheng asked, "Why apologize?"
"I, I must come, so——"
"I asked you to come. You're not the one who's holding me back."
"No, no..."
Nan Yan looked into his gentle eyes again and was speechless for a moment.
He asked himself to come to protect himself.
But the reason he came here was for Zhu Feng, to help him find King Ning's weakness.
She knew that Jian Ruocheng knew what she was thinking, but he still protected her like this.
Thinking of this, I felt sad again.
But at this time, there was no more time for them to drown, because the next moment, another huge wave came.
Jian Ruocheng gritted his teeth and simply held her in his arms with both hands. Nan Yan felt a black screen before her eyes, and was immediately surrounded by a warm breath. She could no longer feel any of the earth-shaking and bumpy surroundings.
The ship struggled forward in the rough sea.

"Why...why do you always have to...stop me?"
Zhu Feng looked at the hall below with red eyes.
All these ministers stood up.
Everyone was looking at him.
Everyone was repeating, "Your Majesty, please think twice! Your Majesty, please think twice!"
…
This scene appeared in his eyes and was deeply imprinted in his mind. That familiar feeling hit his heart again and again.
Why does this scene seem like something I've experienced before...?
Why do you always want to stop me?
Why……
The more he spoke, the more severe the headache became. It felt like there was an evil fire burning inside his internal organs, almost burning him to ashes.
At this time, He Yi, who was standing aside, saw this scene and frowned.
None of them were happy to see today's enthronement ceremony, but they were not so anxious to step in to stop it. After all, some of the ministers attending the ceremony would step forward, so he and Ye Zheng had not originally intended to take action.
However, when he saw Zhu Feng's condition, he felt something was wrong.
"The Emperor is not in a good condition."
"What?"
He Yi said in a deep voice: "No, we can't go on like this!"
“…”
"If this continues, the Emperor's condition will be dire. Hurry!"
After saying that, he quickly walked forward and held Zhu Feng's arm: "Your Majesty!"
Zhu Feng, who had one hand covering his forehead, suddenly murmured in a deep voice, "Prince Ning..."
He was stunned when he heard the words "Prince Ning". "Your Majesty, what?"
"Prince Ning..."
Zhu Feng frowned and said unconsciously, "Prince Ning, what does he...what does he have?"
“…”
"Why does his figure keep appearing in my mind?"
“…”
"Why do I feel like I've experienced this scene before, and why do I keep thinking about him?"
He Yi took a deep breath.
He really didn't expect that Tai Shang Wang Qing could make people forget their past, but Zhu Feng didn't seem to have that.
Many of his abnormalities showed that he had an almost pathological obsession with a person and things about her. Even though he had forgotten her, a shadow of her was still engraved in his heart.
It seemed as if there was a thread connecting the two people.
Why is this happening?
Is this situation good or bad?
Will his inner demons emerge again? If even the Supreme Forgetfulness is ineffective, what will Zhu Feng become in the future?
Just thinking about this, He Yi's face showed a trace of panic for the first time.
He turned around and looked at Qin Ruolan, who was standing aside and retreating step by step under the questioning of the ministers of the Grand Prince. His face was pale. He said in a deep voice: "Madam Qin, you must make a choice on this matter."
“…”
"Otherwise, Your Majesty—"
Qin Ruolan looked at Zhu Feng in panic, the conflict in his eyes becoming even more intense.
In fact, she also heard what Zhu Feng said just now.
He has clearly forgotten the past, but some things still seem to have an impact on him. If he continues like this, will it really bring back memories of that woman in his heart?
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth.
But, now that it has come to this, should we give up?
Just as she was in agony, suddenly, the little palace maid Chun'er came running over from the back of the hall and shouted, "Empress, something bad has happened!"
