Chapter 1819 "Stealing Jade and Fragrance"
A soft little hand gently climbed onto his shoulder.
Zhu Feng frowned, but before he opened his eyes, he felt Nan Yan's body close to him. She leaned close to his ear and whispered softly, "Your Majesty, did Your Majesty take anything from me?"
“…”
You still dare to ask?!
Zhu Feng suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his tiger eyes. Under normal circumstances, he could almost see through a person's body.
When he turned around, he saw Nan Yan sitting next to him.
The limp body was almost falling on him.
And there was still a smile on her face.
Under normal circumstances, Nan Yan would be afraid if she saw such an angry face, with eyes filled with rage that was almost uncontrollable.
But at this moment, she was not afraid at all.
Not only was she not afraid, she even tried to hold back her laughter and wanted to get into Zhu Feng's arms.
Meeting his gaze that said, "How dare you ask?", she said, "Did the Emperor really take it?"
“…”
"Then Your Majesty, can you please return it to me?"
Zhu Feng took a breath.
He vaguely remembered that the Yellow River would burst its banks every summer and autumn, and the reports from below always gave him a headache. But no matter how they built embankments or dredged the river, they still could not stop the surging Yellow River.
Every time that happened, he would lose his temper in the imperial study.
He angrily scolded the people below him for being a bunch of good-for-nothings.
But at this time, he seemed to understand something.
No matter how he prepared himself mentally at this moment, no matter how he told himself not to be mean to her, no matter how he suppressed the anger in his heart, the anger still rose from his heart to his head in an instant.
The string of his rationality almost broke in an instant.
"you--"
Just as Zhu Feng was about to speak in a deep voice, his anger threatening to burst forth like a flood, he heard Nan Yan say with a smile, "Your Majesty has taken it, but how am I supposed to return it to Miss Xue?"
“…”
Zhu Feng's heartbeat stopped for a moment.
My breathing was also choked.
He opened his eyes wide, almost bloodshot, and when he looked at Nan Yan, his gaze seemed to want to swallow her.
But when he opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse: "What did you say?"
What did he hear?
The three words Nan Yan just said were——
Xue, Miss?
Nan Yan smiled and looked up at him. As if afraid that he didn't hear clearly, she repeated it again: "Miss Xue, Miss Xue Yun."
“…”
"I took someone's handkerchief and was thinking of finding a chance to return it to her."
“…”
"Who knew that the emperor would steal the jade and the fragrance?"
As she spoke, her little hand suddenly slipped into Zhu Feng's sleeve. Zhu Feng only felt a chill on his wrist, but before he could react, he heard a "whoosh" sound, and she pulled the handkerchief out.
Said: "It is indeed!"
“…”
"The Emperor really did take the girl's things!"
“…”
"Tsk tsk, what should I do now?"
Zhu Feng watched her shaking the handkerchief, looking at him with a sly smile, as if somewhat proud. His heart seemed to fall from the sky. He thought it was going to be shattered, but all of a sudden, it fell into a soft and even fragrant quilt.
I feel a little overwhelmed.
He said, "You said Xue Yun is, a woman?"
Nan Yan looked at him with a smile and said, "Didn't the emperor see that?"
“…”
Zhu Feng's mind was still a little confused. Although he was slowly getting over the sudden "surprise", he couldn't show it completely. After all, he didn't intend to let anyone know what he was thinking, and how confused and embarrassed he felt from last night until just now.
He said, "You, you figured it out?"
Nan Yan said: "Yes."
"when?"
"yesterday."
"Yesterday? When was yesterday?"
"When she took my pulse."
“…”
As Nan Yan spoke, she told him her guess. Of course, later on, Ran Xiaoyu also told her the information she had obtained from asking the store owner, which further confirmed her guess.
Zhu Feng was stunned.
After she finished speaking, Nan Yan looked at him and said, "Didn't I tell His Majesty that Xue Yun is a woman?"
“…”
"Oh, I remember now. I was going to tell the emperor, but Lord Yang sent someone to report the news to the emperor, so I didn't have time to tell him."
“…”
Zhu Feng frowned and thought about it before he remembered.
Indeed, after returning from the East and West Halls yesterday, they talked about what they saw and heard when they entered the Xue family. When they talked about the relationship between Mrs. Xue and Xue Yun, it seemed that there were some things that could not be told to outsiders. Nan Yan seemed to say that she had seen something.
But I didn't have time to ask clearly.
Later, she went to rest, and a little later, Xue Yun came again.
Then, I went to her room and found the handkerchief on her body, so -
Zhu Feng suddenly felt his face getting slightly hot.
Nan Yan leaned against him and noticed that his ears were red. She laughed in her heart, but suppressed her laughter. Instead, she looked at Zhu Feng seriously and said, "The emperor was so angry last night and ignored me this morning... Could it be that it was all because of this handkerchief?"
“Ahem…”
Zhu Feng covered his mouth with his hand and coughed twice in embarrassment.
Then look at the young woman holding the logic.
"Nan Yan..."
Nan Yan's expression became more serious. She asked, "Your Majesty, do you suspect that I have feelings for 'Master Xue'?"
“…”
"Your Majesty, do you think I am that kind of person?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her, but seemed to be at a loss for words.
He didn't really distrust her.
The two of them have been through so much, life and death, and he knows too well that only this woman is truly for him. Only she truly cares about him and is also cared about by him.
He can only trust her.
He, and only she.
So, the more this happened, the more he felt at a loss after discovering the handkerchief. Even though he was furious, he was unwilling to ask, and even more so, he didn't want to be angry with her.
He admitted it was jealousy.
Even though he knew clearly that it might be just hearsay, and even knew clearly that Nan Yan's personality would never allow her to be interested in that kind of "sissy", as long as she had any relationship with any man, he would feel uncontrollable jealousy in his heart.
But only now do I realize how ridiculous this kind of jealousy is.
Even if it’s Jian Ruocheng.
It would even be better if Li didn't hurt that brat.
How could it be a woman!
Xue Yun is actually a woman!
Not only did I not see it, I even...
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead to block the heat that was rising up on his face, which almost made his cheeks red.
