Chapter 543 I Want to Return This to You
Ye Zheng looked up at him and shook his head gently: "Currently, our spies haven't found any information."
“…”
Zhu Feng frowned.
He said, "Is there no movement from the Nanli King's side?"
Ye Zheng said, "It is said that when the King of Beili led his army south, they were only trying to seize power in the court, and several ministers had already been assassinated."
“…”
"So, after Ashiger fought these two battles and suffered losses, he immediately withdrew his troops."
“…”
"I'm afraid he can't afford to waste time with us."
Zhu Feng didn't say anything.
Of course.
At this time, Ashige led an army of 200,000 south, hoping to use his strength to overwhelm the enemy, find the jade seal quickly, and return to seize the throne.
However, he lost both battles and suffered heavy casualties in his troops, so he certainly could not continue to drag it out.
Ye Zheng said, "However, the spy did mention one thing."
"What?"
"Although Ashige's defeat will inevitably affect his faction's position in the court, the imperial advisor seemed to have known they would lose this battle and had made many preparations."
“…”
"King Beili has not been greatly affected."
Zhu Feng frowned slightly: "Oh?"
Ye Zheng said, "In short, this person is very unusual."
"Then, did the spy find out the identity of this person?"
"Still no."
"Let them continue to investigate and find out who released the pigeon."
"yes."
Ye Zheng responded and whispered, "Your Majesty, since there is no news from over there, then—"
Zhu Feng said solemnly, "We will set off tomorrow and return to Beijing."
"yes."
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhu Feng again.
That look was very cautious. Although Zhu Feng had already turned and walked out, he seemed to feel his gaze: "Hmm? Do you want to say anything else?"
Ye Zheng hesitated for a moment and said quickly, "No, nothing."
“…”
Zhu Feng glanced at him and walked out.
Ye Zheng reached out and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
In fact, he wanted to ask whether he should bring Zhu Chengxuan with him when he returned to Beijing this time.
But he really didn't dare to ask. After all, this was the emperor's "family affair" and it involved a son he didn't like. Not everyone dared to step into this minefield.
We can only wait and see whether he will issue an order tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Ye Zheng sighed.

Seize!
An arrow hit the target and was very close to the center.
Zhu Chengxuan grabbed the bow with some joy and looked at Ran Xiaoyu who was standing beside him.
When Ran Xiaoyu saw this scene, she nodded slightly.
"Yes, Your Highness's arrows are becoming more and more accurate."
"Very good!"
"only--"
"Just what?"
She walked over and pulled the arrow off the target with almost no effort. Zhu Chengxuan was stunned when he saw it. Ran Xiaoyu said, "It's just that your Highness's strength is still not enough."
“…”
“You know, if the arrow you shoot has no power, it’s better not to shoot it.”
"oh."
"Pull the bow a hundred more times every day."
Zhu Chengxuan responded obediently: "Okay."
But immediately, he said with some frustration: "But, Sister Ran, you will soon be returning to Jinling with Father and the others. Then, you won't be able to practice with me anymore."
“…”
Ran Xiaoyu glanced at him.
The young boy's face was full of reluctance.
Ran Xiaoyu was about to say something when she suddenly saw a tall figure walking over and said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, this servant greets you."
After saying this, he knelt down.
Zhu Chengxuan turned around and saw Zhu Feng coming. He was so scared that he fell to his knees.
"Father..."
Zhu Feng walked over slowly, glanced down at them, and said, "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Thank you, Father."
The two of them then stood up carefully.
Zhu Feng turned his head and glanced at the target over there. After a moment of silence, he said, "You've practiced well."
Zhu Chengxuan was stunned for a moment before realizing that he might have been watching from the side for a while.
Suddenly her face turned red, and she whispered, "Son, son will, will continue to work hard."
Zhu Feng glanced at him again, then turned to Ran Xiaoyu and said, "Continue teaching him."
"yes."
After saying these words, Zhu Feng turned and left.
Ran Xiaoyu then turned around and said to the still trembling Zhu Chengxuan, "Your Highness...you should continue practicing. The Emperor must have his own plans."
"Um."
Zhu Feng heard the sounds of bows being drawn and arrows being shot behind him again, but he did not look back. He just walked forward slowly. After a while, he walked into the small courtyard where Nan Yan lived.
As soon as I reached the door, I heard her voice coming from inside -
"Be careful."
"Don't touch that, it's expensive."
"Don't touch this either, it's an antique. If you break it, you'll have to pay for it!"
…
When Zhu Feng walked in, he saw two maids who were specially assigned by the palace to take care of her helping her pack her things. However, Nan Yan was busy doing it herself while reminding them.
The two maids were completely confused.
Who has ever heard of losing money while working in the palace?
If you make a mistake, shouldn't you be dragged out of the second gate and beaten with a stick?
Seeing them looking at her with disbelief, Nan Yan hurriedly said, "Don't disbelieve me, I've encountered this myself, and I lost all my money."
“…”
Zhu Feng walked in with a smile on his face. When Nan Yan saw him, she hurriedly said, "Your Majesty!"
Two maids also hurried over to pay their respects.
Zhu Feng looked around the room and found it was almost tidied. There were two large bundles on the couch. She didn't dare to touch any of the other antiques and placed them high up.
Zhu Feng waved his hand: "You two go down first."
"yes."
Just as they finished cleaning up, the two maids left.
Zhu Feng put his hands behind his back, looked around the room, and then said, "Is everything packed?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"You won't take these things with you?"
Nan Yan's face turned pale and she waved her hands hastily: "I can't afford it."
I have already lost the thousands of taels I won with great difficulty. If I take these things with me and get into trouble, I will have to sell myself. I am afraid I can't afford it.
Zhu Feng smiled and looked back at her.
Silly.
He stood with his hands behind his back, looked at it for a while, and then said, "So, when you go on a long journey, you don't bring anything new back with you?"
Nan Yan said, "There is something new."
"What?"
"this."
He saw her take something out of her arms, which was the dagger he had given her before.
She actually kept it in her arms all this time.
The smile in Zhu Feng's eyes deepened.
But Nan Yan said with some annoyance: "But Your Majesty, this servant is going to return this to you."
When Zhu Feng heard this, his face suddenly darkened: "Why?"
