Chapter 1192 This arrangement seems to be intentional?
Although the light was so dim, his wolf-like eyes were brighter than ever.
He said, "Yeah, I'm with you."
“…”
Nan Yan couldn't help but frown.
If in the past, I just treated him as a younger brother, after all, when I brought him back from the border of Yongzhou, he was still so thin and small, he could only be a younger brother, but now, I'm afraid I can't do that anymore.
Now he is the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and looks like a complete man.
She couldn't help but recall what Zhu Feng said to her that night at Jinlou Villa.
Although she knew that he was being unreasonable, Nan Yan turned around and looked at Li Bu Shang again, and found that she seemed to no longer be able to get along with him without any grudges as she did in the past.
After all, making the emperor jealous is not a fun thing.
But it is a fatal thing.
At that time, he was thrown into jail.
As for Jian Ruocheng later, although the Jian family was not destroyed by Zhu Feng, she was sure that Zhu Feng had the intention to kill Jian Ruocheng.
Now, for his sake and for my own sake, I should distance myself a little.
Besides—
She didn't know if it was because of what Zhu Feng said that she had an illusion, but she only now realized that Li Bushang seemed to treat her differently from other people.
Even now—
He was too close to himself.
So, Nan Yan took a step back calmly, looked up at him, and said, "We don't know what will happen when we go south this time. It might be dangerous. You'll have to work hard."
“…”
Li Bushang frowned, and a hint of gloom appeared in his wolf-like eyes.
Look at her steadily.
Nan Yan used to think that his eyes and gaze were like a wolf, but she had never been affected by these eyes. But at this time, perhaps because it was too dark, the dim red light and shadows of the various lanterns around gave her a little pressure. She suddenly felt that she was a little breathless being looked at by these eyes.
Subconsciously, I wanted to turn my head away.
At this time, Li Bushang said in a deep voice: "I will protect you—and the emperor."
Hearing this, Nan Yan was moved again. She turned to look at him and after a moment of silence, she said, "Protect yourself well too."
After saying that, she turned and walked to the other side.
Li Bushang's gaze was indeed too focused, making people breathless.
She had never noticed before that this child had such a focused gaze. The emotions hidden in it were like a trapped beast locked in a cage without sunlight, struggling and roaring desperately, wanting to be released.
Now, it's still closed.
But no one knows what will happen if he is released.
Just as Nan Yan turned around and was about to leave, Li Bu Shang suddenly took another step forward, almost blocking her way: "Did I make you angry, Your Majesty?"
“…”
Nan Yan was startled for a moment, but without even looking at him, she just lowered her head and smiled, "Of course not, what are you talking about?"
"Then why did you—"
He was about to ask, when suddenly, the voice of Eunuch Yu came from behind him——
"The Emperor has arrived!"
All of a sudden, everyone raised their heads, and Nan Yan also turned around hurriedly. Sure enough, they saw Zhu Feng in full dress and with the people behind him walking towards them. They immediately straightened their clothes and expressions and knelt down to kowtow to him.
"Long live the emperor."
Zhu Feng walked over and paused for a moment.
Beside him were two rows of eunuchs holding lanterns, lighting the way ahead. Of course, the surroundings were made even darker, but even so, when he walked over, he saw the familiar, slender figure at first sight.
Stand with Li Bushang.
The light from the lantern could not illuminate Zhu Feng's dark and gloomy eyes.
He was silent for a moment before he said, "Everyone, get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone stood up from the ground one after another, and when they saw his expression, they were afraid to speak. Although they knew that there would be some troubles to be solved when they went south this time, the emperor's expression was so bad during the trip that it still made everyone a little frightened.
I was afraid that if I said something wrong, I would offend him.
Zhu Feng's gaze was like a knife. He swept coldly from them to the surroundings, and then looked back at them.
Then he said, "Get ready to go."
"yes!"
Everyone responded in unison, heading towards their carriages and queues.
Nan Yan naturally grabbed Ran Xiaoyu's hand and prepared to walk towards her carriage, but before she could leave, she saw Zhu Feng coming over.
Her steps suddenly sank.
Li Bushang had already bowed to Zhu Feng and said, "Your Majesty."
“…”
Zhu Feng looked at him gloomily for a moment, then said, "Li Bushang, you took the initiative to go to Changqing City alone before. I don't want this to happen again."
Li Bushang lowered his head: "Your humble servant... understands."
"As you know, the situation in the south is different this time. There may be some dangers. Therefore, I want you to protect his safety."
Upon hearing this, Li Bushang opened his eyes wide in surprise and looked up at him.
Lian Nan Yan turned around in shock.
Zhu Feng, what did he say?
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "The King of Wei is still young, so it's most appropriate for you to stay by his side."
“…”
The smile that was about to appear in Li Bushang's eyes froze at this moment.
His voice choked: "W-what?"
Zhu Feng waved his hand, and Wei Wang Zhu Chengxuan, who was following not far behind him, came up and said softly, "Father."
Zhu Feng said, "This time when you go south, Commander Li will follow you and protect your safety. You must not act willfully, and you must not abandon him. No matter where you go, you must be together."
As he said this, he looked at Li Bushang again.
Those eyes were not only powerful, but also more like nails, nailing into Li Bushang's flesh and blood, making him unable to move.
"Li Bushang, my son, you must protect him well. If anything goes wrong with him, I will hold you accountable!"
“…”
Li Bushang lowered his head, a layer of gloom passed over his face.
He could only grit his teeth and say, "Your humble servant, I obey your order."
Zhu Feng lowered his head again, with a disdainful look, as if a winner was looking at a loser beneath his feet. He curled the corners of his lips slightly, then walked forward, ready to get on his golden carriage.
Nan Yan stood aside, still a little dazed.
She vaguely felt that this arrangement seemed intentional?
He couldn't help but look back at the stiff Li Bushang and the flattered Zhu Chengxuan who was still a little overwhelmed. At this time, Zhu Feng was already boarding the golden carriage. Without turning his head, he just said coldly: "Why don't you get on the carriage? Are you going to be here to wait for your husband?"
“…”
There were many people around, and when they heard this, they all looked at him in confusion.
Nan Yan subconsciously knew that he was talking about her.
He didn't dare to respond and hurried towards his carriage.
After everyone returned to their seats, the emperor quickly left the imperial city.
