Chapter 786: Does the Emperor think she is beautiful?
Ran Xiaoyu walked out and closed the door.
In Yishou Hall, it was so quiet that only the breathing of the two people could be heard.
Zhu Feng slowly walked to the couch, sat down, reached out to brush away the strands of hair on Nan Yan's forehead, and looked at her overly pale face and exceptionally bright eyes.
After a long silence, he said, "What's wrong?"
“…”
"Are you upset because you saw me accept that woman?"
Nan Yan looked at him with sparkling eyes and said, "It's not painful."
"No pain?"
Hearing her say that she didn't feel uncomfortable, Zhu Feng frowned for some reason.
Nan Yan continued, "I'm jealous."
“…”
These three words seemed to have blown away the fog in front of his eyes. Zhu Feng lowered his head to look at her slightly red eyes. Somehow, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
He leaned over, trying not to touch her belly, and put his forehead against hers.
"Jealous of what?"
“…”
Nan Yan thought about it, but instead of answering, she asked, "What does the emperor think of Feng Shu?"
Zhu Feng looked down at her: "What do you think?"
"She's very beautiful."
“…”
"Don't you think she's beautiful, Your Majesty?"
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows: "It's okay."
“…”
Someone like Feng Shu is just “okay”?
That……
Nan Yan suddenly felt her heartbeat slow down, and her expression froze for a moment. She raised her head and said softly, "So, where is Concubine Ning?"
“…”
"Your Majesty, do you think she is beautiful?"
“…”
Zhu Feng looked down at the little woman with her eyes wide open, as if she wanted to dig out the answer from his eyes.
His heart sank slightly.
After a moment of silence, he reached out and pinched Nan Yan's face.
"What are you thinking about?"
“…”
Nan Yan looked at him and smiled.
I also know that he doesn't want to answer this question.
Zhu Feng didn't want to mention anything about Qin Ruolan, especially in front of her. After all, the two of them had already had an unpleasant experience.
Seeing her nonchalant smile, Zhu Feng lowered his head again and touched her forehead with his: "Don't you want me to accept that woman?"
“…”
Nan Yan raised her eyes and looked at him for a while.
Then he said softly, "Your Majesty has reasons, right?"
“…”
"You don't want others to know that I'm the daughter of Princess Tana of the Neng Kingdom, nor do you want others to know my identity as the Princess of Nanming County, right?"
Zhu Feng's eyes flickered slightly.
However, he was not too surprised.
This little girl has always been a sweetheart. She may be called stupid, but she is only stupid in her own affairs. Most of the time, she is also very insightful.
Nodded: "Yeah."
Nan Yan let out a sigh of relief.
really.
Just now, she saw that the lids of the boxes sent by Arslan were engraved with patterns that only the royal family of the Neng Kingdom could use. Then she recalled what Arslan said when he sent the things in these boxes, and she began to understand a little.
He said these things were not gifts,
Indeed, not a gift.
These are all the salaries of the Princess of Nanming County!
He is using this thing to hint at his identity!
If Zhu Feng had not accepted Feng Shu at that time, he might have revealed the identity of the Nanming County Lord, and then all the ministers of the Yan State would have known about it.
Thinking of this, Nan Yan frowned again.
Before, she and Zhu Feng had actually worried about this matter. The identity of the Nanming County Lord was probably bound to be leaked. After all, Monk personally conferred the title of a county lord, which was a big event in the Kingdom of Dian and must be announced.
However, they waited for so long and no news came out.
In other words, Monk and the others kept the matter secret.
So, no one knows.
But in this case—Nan Yan frowned slightly and said, "Your Majesty, if we do this, does that mean Arslan has found our weakness?"
“…”
As soon as she said this, Zhu Feng's brows furrowed.
Nan Yan immediately bit her lower lip.
With Zhu Feng's temper, asking him to admit that he was threatened would probably be more painful than killing him.
Although, today, they were indeed threatened by Arslan.
Arslan did seize this weakness, otherwise, Zhu Feng would not have accepted the woman named Feng Shu today.
But why?
Nan Yan could understand that if Zhu Feng would send spies to the Neng Kingdom, then why wouldn't the people of the Neng Kingdom send spies to the Yan Kingdom?
Besides, she is such a beautiful woman.
But what Nan Yan didn’t understand was why the Lord was caught in this weakness?
So what if she announced her identity as the Princess of Nanming County?
Nan Yan whispered, "Your Majesty, if people knew I was the Princess of Nanming County of the Neng Kingdom, would that have any impact?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her and said, "It won't have any effect on you."
“…”
"I have already said it before, even if you are from the country of Neng, you are still my concubine."
"That--"
Zhu Feng didn't wait for her to speak again, he reached out and gently touched her belly.
"But it will have an impact on him."
“…”
Nan Yan took a deep breath.
I understand.
She whispered, "Your Majesty, it's for our child."
"Um."
Zhu Feng said solemnly in her ear, "I have high hopes for this child. I hope to hand over my kingdom to him."
Nan Yan only felt her heart beating violently.
Regardless of whether the baby in her belly is a boy or a girl, Zhu Feng has already thought so far before it is even born.
If he really gave birth to a prince, he would make him the crown prince.
She whispered, "Why...does the emperor have to do this?"
"why not?"
Zhu Feng said calmly, "I want to give everything I have to the son born by the woman I love. Is that a problem?"
Nan Yan looked up at him.
Although they were talking about such a serious matter, her heart felt as if someone had forced honey into it.
It was so sweet that she wanted to cry.
Looking at her eyes that were gradually turning red, Zhu Feng sighed softly and lowered his head to kiss her hot eyelids.
Nan Yan sniffed and said, "So, the emperor doesn't want people to know my identity, because this child also has the blood of the people of the Neng Kingdom flowing in his body, and it is the blood of the Neng Kingdom's royal family."
"That's right," Zhu Feng said in a deep voice, "This will become the focus of opposition from those ministers."
“…”
"I'm afraid it will be worse than the previous construction of Peking, relocation of the capital, and even—"
"Even what?"
"It's even harder than my own struggle to seize the throne."
Nan Yan took a deep breath.
indeed.
It is difficult for Zhu Fengjing to seize the throne, because it is ultimately a fight among Zhu family members. However, if the ministers knew that he is a member of the royal family of Dian, then they would absolutely not allow a prince with the royal blood of Dian flowing in his body to ascend the throne of the emperor of Yan!
