Chapter 3070: Serving People with Beauty
"What time is it?"
After returning to Yiku Palace, Nan Yan has been lying on the couch by the window with her eyes closed for a nap. Tingfu thought she had fallen asleep, so he closed the door and stayed under the eaves.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew open the half-closed window. When he was about to get up to close the window, he heard Nan Yan ask, and he hurriedly said, "My Lady?"
Nan Yan lay on the couch, opened her eyes and looked at the sky outside.
"What time is it?"
"It's three quarters past the hour of You."
"It's three quarters past midnight?"
Upon hearing this, Nan Yan slowly stood up and looked at the sky outside. It had been as dark as dusk all day long, but now that it was dusk, she didn't feel it anymore.
She looked at the sky, then glanced at the yard. It was so quiet that only the sound of the wind could be heard. She asked, "Where are the others?"
Tingfu said, "Those two children, seeing that the Majesty is asleep, I will ask them to go to the back so as not to disturb her."
"Where's the dragonfly?"
"Her? She was here just now. I don't know where she went."
"oh?"
Nan Yan raised her eyebrows slightly and was about to look outside when she saw Qingting walk in from outside the Yikun Palace. Seeing Nan Yan and Tingfu talking through the window, she was already awake and hurried over: "Your Highness."
Tingfu said, "Where have you been? Didn't I tell you not to run around after you came here?"
The dragonfly lowered its head.
Nan Yan glanced at her and was about to say something when suddenly, a gust of wind blew outside, causing the lanterns under the eaves to sway violently. Nan Yan looked at the trees outside and said, "The wind is blowing..."
Tingfu said, "Let me close the window for you, Madam."
"No need,"
As Nan Yan spoke, she raised her hand and leaned out of the window to test it. She frowned slightly, then sighed deeply and said, "The war has begun."
Tingfu was stunned for a moment.
Qingting had been keeping her head down, not daring to breathe. Upon hearing this, she looked up at Xiang Nanyan in surprise, "What did the Queen just say?"
Nan Yan said, "The war has begun."
“…”
"People from Jiangbei should have already started crossing the river."
Dragonfly asked in surprise: "How did the Queen know?"
Nan Yan said, "The wind direction has changed."
“…”
"For the past few days, the wind has been blowing from the south. Even if the people in Jiangbei have assembled their troops, they can't rush across the river. But now that the wind has changed, they will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to cross the river. And the people in Xingluo Lake will definitely try to stop them at this time."
Although Dragonfly didn't know what Xingluo Lake was, she still understood the previous words.
She opened her eyes wide in surprise and looked at Nan Yan.
Nan Yan said to Ting Fu, "Walk around outside. If there's any battle report back, come and tell me what you can find out. But remember, don't go too far. Zhu Chengjin won't let you go too far."
Tingfu said: "Yes."
After saying that, he turned and ran out.
Qingting was still standing outside the window, staring at Nan Yan for a long time without saying anything. Nan Yan looked at the sky outside for a while, noticed her gaze, and said lightly, "What's wrong?"
“…”
Qingting looked at her for a long time and said softly, "I, I always thought that the ladies in the palace were all, all——"
"What are they?"
"It's all about using beauty to please others."
She probably knew that what she said was very bold, so after she said it, she bit her lower lip and lowered her head.
Nan Yan was not angry, she just glanced at her indifferently.
