Chapter 547: Dealing with Someone in the Harem
At this time, Zhu Feng suddenly said: "However, I am tired from the journey and just want to rest."
When Wu Yingqiu heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
His son Wu Ding behind him hurriedly said, "Since Your Majesty is tired, let's put the banquet aside. Your Majesty should rest early and take care of your health."
Zhu Feng nodded calmly and waved his hand, saying, "My dear ministers, please withdraw first."
"yes."
The group had been hoping to get close to him at tonight's banquet, but they didn't expect the banquet to be cancelled at the last minute, so they had to leave in disappointment.
Wu Yingqiu walked outside the hall and looked back hesitantly. He frowned and said to his son, "Emperor, are you dissatisfied with my arrangement?"
Wu Ding said, "Father has made so many preparations for the Emperor's arrival. How could the Emperor not be satisfied?"
“…”
"but--"
"But what?"
"But just now, my son heard the female official behind the emperor snort."
When Wu Yingqiu heard this, he immediately stopped again and saw that Zhu Feng and the others did not stay in the brightly lit hall for too long and walked to the back, with the pretty female official following closely behind him.
His eyes flickered slightly: "That, is Si Nanyan?"
"It should be her."
Wu Ding also glanced back: "Wan'er - oh no, Concubine Kang has mentioned her several times. This girl has always been against the Concubine."
"Then why don't you take care of her?"
"I heard that this girl is very cunning and difficult to deal with."
"It's difficult to deal with? Is Gao Yurong also unable to do anything?"
When Wu Yingqiu married his daughter to Prince Yan's mansion, he also specially gave Gao Yurong to Prince Yan. It seemed like "buy one, get one free", but in fact, he had long known that his daughter was young and arrogant, and she was just domineering and did not have many means.
Therefore, she sent Gao Yurong, a shrewd and capable woman with deep scheming and cunning, to assist her. Two people, couldn't they handle a small female official of the Imperial Household?
Wu Ding said softly, "So, this girl is cunning. And there is another piece of news recently."
"What?"
"I heard that the emperor is preparing to enthrone her."
"Consecration?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Yingqiu's brows furrowed even more tightly. After a long silence, he muttered, "Although Wan'er has been in Prince Yan's mansion the shortest, it was thanks to my mediation that she was able to ascend to the position of concubine. This girl, it's not possible that she can sit on the position of concubine just by being canonized, right?"
“…”
"When the time comes, let them figure it out."
“…”
"Isn't it easy to deal with someone in the harem?"
Wu Ding was silent for a moment, then said, "I hope so."

Several maids led the way, and Zhu Feng took Si Nanyan to the room specially prepared for him.
Needless to say, it is all luxury.
This room is large and exquisite, and the furnishings inside are almost all rare treasures, antique calligraphy and paintings that have never been seen before.
I don’t know how much thought Wu Yingqiu put into it.
As soon as Nan Yan walked into the room, she subconsciously thought - don't touch!
If you break it, you have to pay for it!
Zhu Feng slowly walked to the couch and sat down. He looked at the gorgeous objects around him. After a while, he said in a strange tone, "See? This place is even more magnificent than my palace."
Nan Yan thought for a moment and said, "The Duke probably wants to please the Emperor."
"To please me?"
Zhu Feng chuckled.
They really need to please him, otherwise, how can they have future glory and wealth?
At this time, Nan Yan had already brewed a cup of tea and carefully handed it to him. It was snowing heavily outside. Everyone felt cold when they just walked in, but Zhu Feng's hands were hot.
His body temperature is much higher than that of ordinary people.
But when he took the cup of tea, it was warm, and after drinking it, he felt a little better.
He looked up at Nan Yan and suddenly smiled, "Do you know how to please me?"
Nan Yan hurriedly shook her head.
"Isn't this the only thing I can do to anger the Emperor?"
"Hmph, I'm glad you know."
Soon, they washed off the dust on their bodies, changed into comfortable pajamas, and returned to the warm room.
Of course, there are separate accommodation arrangements for those accompanying us.
But Zhu Feng said, "You, stay here tonight."
"ah?"
Nan Yan looked at him with wide eyes.
Zhu Feng immediately knew what she was thinking. He reached out and pinched her cheek hard, shaking it twice: "What do you think I'm going to do?"
“…”
"I let you sleep here!"
After saying that, he pointed to the couch beside the bed.
Nan Yan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but her face unconsciously turned a little red again.
Before, after that incident in the bathroom, both of them had been very well behaved, trying to avoid the possibility of an accidental shooting.
After all, when people in love are together, they all want to be close to each other, and even own each other.
Just now, she almost thought Zhu Feng was going to——
Shocked and embarrassed.
Seeing her hurriedly turn around to carry the quilt to spread it out on the couch, although she kept her head down, she couldn't hide the red tips of her ears. Zhu Feng couldn't help but want to laugh.
Of course, he couldn't sleep on the same bed with her.
In the past, I might have been able to bear it, but now——
Ever since that incident in the bathhouse, he had lost hope in his own perseverance.
So, the two of them lay down and spent the night relatively peacefully.
The next day, however, was unsettled.
After all, the emperor had arrived in Henan Province, and all the officials and celebrities here gathered here. In addition to the official audience, many people came here specifically to see the emperor's face.
The banquet that was not held the night before was held the next day in the tall and spacious hall.
Nan Yan did not stay with Zhu Feng because she had been traveling for several days and suddenly stopped. The fatigue in her body came out at this time and she felt lazy.
Zhu Feng naturally didn't want to force her, so he let her stay in the room alone.
Naturally, there was good tea and snacks on the table.
Nan Yan looked at the snow scene outside the window, listened to the sound of stringed instruments coming from afar, and the melodious singing of the singers, and felt quite enjoyable.
At this time, the maidservant from the other courtyard came in: "Officer of the Imperial Household."
Nan Yan looked at her: "What's the matter?"
"There's a famous man outside who wants to see you."
"Celebrity?"
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled and said, "The Duke is hosting a banquet today, and the Emperor is currently meeting with the famous scholars from Henan Province in the lobby. Take him there."
The maid smiled and said, "This famous scholar is not here to see the emperor, he is here to ask to see you, the female official."
"I?"
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide in surprise.
"who is he?"
"Gu Tingqiu."
