Chapter 1115: How to deal with Zhu Feng
In the following time, the entire Hecheng fell silent.
The common people were no longer as riotous and angry as before, but sat on the roadside or returned home. The soldiers guarding the city did not dare to be negligent and still performed their duties loyally and guarded the city gates.
On the city wall, Wen Ye, who had hardly slept all night, finally went into the watchtower to rest after everyone's persuasion.
However, his heart was still with the outside world.
It's a gloomy day today.
There were dark clouds overhead, as if the entire sky was covered by something. The feeling of being enclosed made it hard to breathe, and similarly, there was no wind in the air.
But slowly, there was an oppressive feeling of impending storm.
Wen Ye sighed and closed his eyes.
He murmured uneasily, "At sunset...at sunset...at sunset, what can we do?"
This kind of uneasiness and doubt also permeated the Jinlou Villa.
Xu Miaoyin stood under the eaves, with her hands behind her back, looking at the gloomy sky above her head with a slightly frown.
Although at this time, she could not see the clouds gathering and dispersing at the zenith, nor could she see the slow pace of the sun, she knew in her heart that time was slowly passing by without stopping for a moment.
A few hours are just a blink of an eye.
But what happens after the blink of an eye?
Will the gates of Hecheng really open? If so, what will Hecheng face?
"well……"
She couldn't help but sigh softly.
At this moment, she heard light footsteps behind her. Without looking back, she could smell the faint fragrance and knew that Qin Ruolan was coming.
In the past, she rarely smelled the fragrance of makeup because she was confident enough in her appearance. Also, because of her always cold attitude, she did not need to put on makeup to please the emperor. Therefore, she always looked calm and had a faint scent on her body.
At that time, even though she was cold, he was willing to talk to her.
But this time, since she found Zhu Feng and everyone reunited, she started to put on makeup and had such a fragrance on her body.
Although she is more attractive than before, her charm is indeed impressive.
But for some reason, Xu Miaoyin didn't want to pay much attention to her.
At this moment, she had already walked behind him.
"Is the Queen worried?"
“…”
Xu Miaoyin was silent for a moment, and without turning around, she simply said, "What are you worried about?"
"Of course I'm worried. By sunset, if the city doesn't have a plan to deal with it, that's what will happen to Crane City."
It seemed that just like in the past, there was a hint of coldness in Qin Ruolan's tone.
But this kind of coldness is different from the previous feeling of not caring about anything and being indifferent.
There is a hint of sarcasm, even the cold arrogance of someone who is enjoying the show.
Xu Miaoyin frowned slightly, turned around and looked at her. After a moment of silence, she said, "As the queen of a country, of course I am worried about the people here."
A sneer flashed in Qin Ruolan's eyes.
"It's a pity that some people, as concubines, don't understand this truth."
"You mean—Sinanyan."
"If not her, who else could it be?"
Qin Ruolan's eyes were cold and pointed, as she said, "She's just a concubine in the harem, and she even carries a sin on her shoulders. How can she make such a promise to the people? If something goes wrong and the people riot, bringing disaster to the Emperor and Empress, can she afford it?"
Xu Miaoyin thought about it, and then said: "In this matter, she really acted on her own initiative."
"That--"
"But," Before Qin Ruolan finished speaking, Xu Miaoyin continued, "Since the emperor didn't say anything and tacitly agreed to this matter, I think the imperial concubine's actions are in line with the emperor's wishes."
“…”
"Since the emperor has his own plans, the harem cannot interfere in politics. Let's not talk about this matter any further."
Qin Ruolan frowned his brows like spring willows.
It was clearly Si Nanyan who broke the rule that "the harem cannot interfere in politics", but now, she used this to pressure herself and she couldn't even say anything more.
It seems that they are standing on the same line.
Qin Ruolan sneered in his heart. Although there was no expression on his face, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"yes."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Xu Miaoyin looked at her back and murmured to herself, "Big things are in chaos, small things are in chaos, when will this world be peaceful again?"
Having said that, she couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"The sea of people is vast, and there are always storms..."

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was Youshi.
The weather had been gloomy all day, but in the evening, a faint golden light appeared in the western sky, and everyone could finally see the sunset.
But it is what I least want to see.
Facing the setting sun, Zhu Feng walked out of Liuhe Hall. Outside the Jinlou Villa, Ying Shao was already waiting with a group of people, ready to escort him.
Nan Yan followed closely.
Although in Ye Zheng's eyes, the two of them had been "sticking together" all day, at this moment, Zhu Feng's face turned stern: "Go back."
Nan Yan looked at him and said, "I don't want it."
"You dare to disobey my order?"
"Your Majesty, the agreement for sunset was made between me and the common people. How could I not go?"
"I haven't blamed you for acting on your own initiative yet, so you still dare to act recklessly?"
“……!”
Nan Yan suddenly opened her eyes wide.
I didn't expect this man to change his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. He said he didn't care before, but now he wants to settle the score with me for acting on my own?
She gritted her teeth and reached out to grab his sleeve: "I won't go back."
"you--"
Zhu Feng was about to get angry, but when he felt her fingertips gently scratching his hand, he was unable to express his anger for a moment.
Ye Zheng and the others on the side all looked away.
Seeing Zhu Feng's breath stuck in his throat, unable to breathe out or swallow it, Nan Yan chuckled in her heart.
There is also a benefit to forgetting the past.
Zhu Feng is less able to hide his emotions and likes and dislikes than before.
Even though his face was calm, his eyes had already revealed most of his emotions.
She found that as long as she got closer to him or touched him gently, many problems could be solved.
Why haven’t you discovered it before?
Seeing Zhu Feng's conflicted expression, as if about to lose his temper, but with the corners of his mouth twitching slightly, Nan Yan stepped forward and said softly, "I made this promise at sunset because I have confidence in the emperor. How can the emperor not have confidence in himself?"
“…”
"I believe that no one can hurt me when I am with the emperor."
“…”
These words completely shut Zhu Feng's mouth.
He glared at Nan Yan. Although his look was a bit fierce, it clearly revealed a hint of helplessness.
“You!”
Nan Yan smiled immediately.
