Chapter 399 Let the Servant Share the Emperor's Worries
At this moment, Zhu Feng suddenly said, "Stop!"
Everyone stopped.
Everyone looked at him, waiting for his order to capture Princess Baoyin, who was armed and planning an assassination in front of the emperor.
But Arslan was not panicked at all at this moment. He just sat aside, looking at Zhu Feng with a faint smile in his eyes.
Seemingly waiting to see how he would respond.
Zhu Feng looked at Princess Baoyin, then at Arslan, and said, "Special Envoy, is this the gift you gave me?"
"good."
Arslan stood up and even said respectfully, "This is a song Princess Baoyin wrote specifically for your majesty based on what she saw and felt during her visit to Jinling."
“…”
"And this sword dance."
“…”
"Including the princess herself."
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he understood something. Although the people around him were still a little confused, they did not dare to relax at all when looking at the sword in Princess Baoyin's hand.
Until Zhu Feng raised his hand and waved it gently: "Everyone, step back."
Ying Shao frowned and said softly: "Your Majesty——"
"I said, back off!"
At this point, no one dared to step forward, and everyone retracted their swords. Princess Baoyin stepped on the shoulders of the two guards, took advantage of the momentum, and flipped over to the ground.
Sure enough, it was as light as a civet cat.
Although, after hearing their purpose from Arslan's mouth, Nan Yan already disliked this princess who seemed to be both beautiful and talented, she could not help but admit that she was indeed a beauty with both beauty and talent.
The singing is melodious, the sword dance is graceful, and there is strength in the softness.
Even the guards couldn't take her down.
It seems that the princess of the Neng Kingdom is indeed not an ordinary girl.
At this moment, she put away her sword, walked in front of Zhu Feng, looked at him openly, and said with a smile: "I wonder if His Majesty the Emperor has any return gift."
"Return gift?"
Zhu Feng looked at her: "Do you want to return the gift?"
Princess Baoyin said, "On our grassland, song and sword must go hand in hand."
As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Kang, who had almost hidden in the corner and finally returned to her seat at this time, suddenly became furious and scolded: "Such a heavy burden, and you dare to ask His Majesty for a return gift? This is Yan Country, not your grassland!"
“…”
"Besides, His Majesty hasn't said he wants you yet!"
Zhu Feng glanced at her.
When he turned around to look at Princess Baoyin, his eyes became a little deep.
Logically speaking, when two countries interact, there should be a reciprocal etiquette, and sword dancing - that's not so difficult to say.
But he didn't fully understand the song she just sang, even though he knew some of the Dang language, because the situation was too complicated and there were so many people making so much noise.
If the return gift is irrelevant, it will only make people laugh at you.
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked around.
Is there anyone here who can return this gift?
At this moment, a very soft but not at all timid voice sounded behind him——
"Your Majesty, this gift does not require your Majesty's concern."
“…”
"Let this servant share the emperor's worries and take care of it."
“…”
When they heard the voice, everyone was startled and looked behind Zhu Feng.
Zhu Feng frowned slightly and turned around.
I saw Nan Yan standing behind him, looking up at him.
Although she looked so petite and slender, at this moment, her gaze was extremely firm, even sharper than the sword in Baoyin's hand.
