Chapter 83 A Beautiful Woman
Nan Yan was still standing there blankly, seemingly at a loss as to what to do. Ye Zheng, who was standing beside her, nudged her with his elbow and said softly, "Ladies, come over and pay your respects."
After saying this, he stepped forward and bowed, "Ye Zheng greets the ladies."
Nan Yan raised her head again and looked into Zhu Feng's eyes, which looked somewhat gloomy in the sunlight. Then, as if waking from a dream, she slowly walked forward and also bowed to the ground: "This servant greets all the ladies."
It turned out that these beautiful women were none other than the concubines and maids of Prince Yan's Mansion.
Before, they all traveled with Xu Miaoyin, but He Yi went to pick up Princess Yan and brought them to Jinling City in advance, so these people were delayed on the road. Today, they all entered the palace.
Nan Yan lowered her head and could smell the strong fragrance of cosmetics emanating from their bodies. Under the scorching sun, these ladies were sweating profusely, and the fragrance was even stronger, making her feel as if she could not breathe.
Zhu Feng waved his hand lightly and asked them all to stand up.
At this moment, the woman standing in the front, the one closest to Zhu Feng, who was wearing a light yellow dress, raised her eyes. Her clear, bright eyes glanced at her and said, "Your Highness, who is she?"
Zhu Feng looked back.
Under the scorching sun, his eyes were as cold as ice, and his voice was chilling: "Just a slave."
Nan Yan knelt on the ground, her breath so calm that there wasn't even a trace of disorder.
This statement also brought smiles to the stunned faces of several concubines. They hurriedly gathered around Zhu Feng, each vying to say, "Your Highness, I have missed you terribly on this journey."
"Is Your Highness well these days?"
…
As they talked, they followed Zhu Feng into the Wuying Hall. The empty and quiet hall immediately became noisy. Ye Zheng had already stood up. He turned around and saw Nan Yan still kneeling on the ground. He hurriedly reached out to pull her arm, "Nan Yan, get up quickly."
"oh oh."
Nan Yan was pulled by him and stood up as well.
Ye Zheng looked at her carefully and found that except for being a little pale, there was no other change in her face, and there was even no sign of any emotional fluctuation.
Those bright eyes just stared at the ladies in a daze.
Ye Zheng leaned close to her ear and introduced those ladies to her, because Nan Yan was going to serve Prince Yan after all, so she had to get to know these concubines and maids. She was afraid that after tomorrow, they would become imperial concubines.
The one who just spoke, wearing a goose yellow long skirt, was Concubine Wu, whose maiden name was Wu Wan. She was the youngest daughter of Wu Yingqiu, the Governor of Henan Province. She was the last to enter the Prince of Yan's Palace, entering shortly before the Prince of Yan started the rebellion, so she was the most popular.
The concubine Gao who followed closely behind her was named Gao Yurong. She was a woman given to the prince by Wu Yingqiu when Wu Wan married into the palace. She usually depended on Madam Wu for everything.
The oldest of the four was a maid who had served Prince Yan since he was a child. Later, she was taken as a concubine. Her name was Xinqing. She was two years older than Prince Yan. She didn't talk much on weekdays, but His Highness Prince Yan would visit her two days every month.
Nan Yan nodded and suddenly asked, "By the way, who is the one standing the farthest away and who has been silent?"
