Chapter 617 You are different!
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "Your Majesty..."
But immediately, she saw Zhu Feng's eyes. His deep pupils seemed immersed in endless darkness, even though at this moment, he was standing at the door with the sun shining brightly behind him.
It couldn't even illuminate his eyes.
And in those eyes, there was still a burning flame.
He strode over and hugged Nan Yan.
“……!”
Nan Yan's heart skipped a beat, and she was a little stunned. She said softly, "Your Majesty?"
She thought she was still in a dream, but Zhu Feng's arms around her were real. The powerful feeling seemed to embed her into his body again.
Don't give her any chance to escape.
He held her in his arms and lay down on the bed.
The hand still did not loosen.
His arms were even tightening continuously.
For some reason, this feeling suddenly reminded Nan Yan of the first time she kept watch over Zhu Feng at night, when he woke up from a nightmare.
At this moment, he seemed to carry the aura of a nightmare.
Nan Yan was pinned down by him, and it was difficult for her to breathe, but she still whispered, "Your Majesty...are you having a nightmare again?"
“……!”
After saying this, Zhu Feng's body trembled violently.
Yes, he had a nightmare again.
After leaving the Yanx Palace, he returned to the imperial study alone, trying to force himself to calm down by handling state affairs.
However, in the middle of the night, he could no longer hold on and fell asleep on the imperial desk.
And the nightmare that had haunted me for almost half my life once again haunted me like a ghost.
It has been a long time, too long, since Nan Yan came to his side and since the two of them fell in love with each other, he has not had that suffocating nightmare again.
But last night, that nightmare came again.
Whenever there are people or things in his world that he cannot control, that nightmare will haunt him.
Like a poisonous snake.
When Zhu Feng recalled the suffocating feeling in his dream, his breath almost stopped again.
He hugged the small body beneath him even tighter, buried his face in her shoulder, and took a deep breath of her faintly fragrant scent.
He said in a deep voice: "You are mine."
“…”
"you belong With Me!"
“…”
"You are different. You are different from them!"
Nan Yan frowned.
She is certainly different from others.
At other times, she would hardly think about this matter too deeply, but yesterday, Aunt Tongyun suddenly told her that she and Concubine Ning had a crush on each other.
These words were like an invisible thorn piercing her heart.
It didn't hurt or itch at first, but when Zhu Feng touched it——
She whispered, "Your Majesty, what happened?"
“…”
"What happened last night?"
“…”
"Concubine Ning..."
"Don't ask!"
Zhu Feng interrupted her: "These things have nothing to do with you!"
Nan Yan's breath turned cold.
She said, "It has nothing to do with me?"
“…”
"If it has nothing to do with me, why did the Emperor come to see me?"
“…”
"Am I just a tool for the Emperor to calm down?"
Zhu Feng frowned, loosened his arms around her, and looked up at her. Nan Yan's face was solemn, and she said seriously, "Your Majesty, don't you even tell me a single truth?"
Zhu Feng's breath became heavier.
"You know what you're talking about?"
"I know."
Although the two of them were still hugging each other, with Zhu Feng's heavy body still pressing on her, their breath had already cooled.
Nan Yan said calmly, "I know that the Emperor went to Concubine Ning's place last night."
“…”
Zhu Feng's deep eyes flickered slightly: "I'm going, what do you think?"
Nan Yan took a deep breath and said, "I know that all the women in this palace belong to the emperor, including me."
“…”
"Although the Emperor allows me to be jealous when it's just the two of us, I'm not stupid enough to be jealous."
“…”
"Your Majesty wants to favor someone, and I can't stop him."
“…”
"But, can't you ask the emperor to tell you the truth?"
Although I wouldn't be stupid enough to be jealous, the pain boiling in my heart at this moment is clearly jealousy.
When I think of this moment, the arms hugging me, and this strong body.
Maybe last night, they...
Thinking of this, Nan Yan's heart was inevitably pierced with pain.
She knew very well that a man would not be indifferent to a stunning beauty like Qin Ruolan for no reason.
His indifference towards her may be because of the complicated past between them.
That's something I don't know.
I have completely given my heart to him.
But he was unwilling to tell himself the truth.
Thinking of this, the bitter feeling of being betrayed surged up like a tide, and Nan Yan's eyes gradually became moist.
She whispered, "No?"
At this moment, Zhu Feng's eyes turned completely cold.
He looked down at her, and after a moment, he let go of her hands without any reluctance and stood up from the bed.
Then, he left without looking back.
Nan Yan lay on the bed in a daze, listening to his receding footsteps, tears silently flowing down her face.

Zhu Feng didn't come again for the whole day.
Aunt Tongyun, Ran Xiaoyu and the others didn't know what had happened, but they could understand that perhaps her "favor" was about to end.
The entire Yikun Palace looked gloomy and desolate.
Until evening.
Aunt Tongyun instructed the people in the imperial kitchen to reheat the food and bring it to her.
"My lady, please at least have a bite."
“…”
"You haven't eaten all day."
“…”
"If this continues, what will happen if I get sick?"
Nan Yan sat at the table, looking at the flickering candlelight, and shook her head slightly: "I can't eat."
In fact, she regretted it as soon as Zhu Feng left.
Marrying the emperor and becoming his concubine, weren't these things expected long ago?
Why did I say those words to him so impulsively?
But--
The thorn in my heart still hurts.
She is no more relaxed than Zhu Feng.
Thinking of this, she frowned and gently covered her face with her hands.
Aunt Tongyun sighed softly.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and someone walked to the door: "Your Highness."
Nan Yan quickly raised her head.
It was Ye Zheng's voice.
Standing at the door was Ye Zheng.
"You, why are you here?"
“…”
Ye Zheng walked in slowly, looked at the untouched food on the table, and then looked at Nan Yan's haggard appearance.
I couldn't help but sigh softly: "You two are really a headache."
