Chapter 2792: No Hurt, Actually I——
Soon, Ruan Hengzhou finished organizing Jie Shi's confession that he had just recorded and presented it to Nan Yan and Zhu Chengxuan.
After Nan Yan looked at it, she nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."
After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
As soon as a few people walked out of the discipline room, facing the pitch-black corridor in front of them that seemed to have no end, Nan Yan subconsciously stopped - even though there was no firelight over there and she couldn't see anything, she seemed to be able to feel that in the pitch-black darkness, there was a pair of wolf-like eyes looking at her.
Even if it's separated by a long night, heavy prisons, and layers of fences.
Those eyes were also looking at him.
Even in the dead silence like a grave, she could hear the man's breathing.
It was so heavy that it seemed to come from deep underground.
Several people were about to follow her away, but when they saw her standing there, looking slightly dazed, Zhu Chengxuan and Ruan Hengzhou looked at each other, and neither of them spoke.
Instead, He Yi stepped forward and said softly, "My Lady, do you want to interrogate the other suspects?"
Immediately, Nan Yan felt the man's breathing become heavier again.
The atmosphere in the entire prison seemed to be weighed down by this man's aura.
“…”
Nan Yan was silent for a while, then said calmly, "No need."
“…”
"Jie Shi's confession is enough. As for the others, let's wait for Lord Ruan to come and interrogate them later."
“…”
"I don't want to see you."
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
At this moment, Li Bushang, who was sitting in the deepest cell with his whole body hidden in the dark corner, felt as if his entire soul was about to be swallowed by the surrounding darkness. Xie Jiaojiao, who was standing opposite him, holding the fence tightly with both hands, could also feel his wolf eyes. In an instant, even the light was gone.
She whispered, "It doesn't hurt..."
“…”
"No, actually I—"
The person opposite said nothing.
After an unknown amount of time, he slowly lowered his head, and those wolf-like eyes seemed to be extinguished in this deep and endless night...
When walking out of the prison gate, Nan Yan suddenly felt dizzy.
Everything in front of her eyes went dark, and the cold, hard ground beneath her feet became soft. She felt like she was walking on a floating wooden board on the sea, and her whole body felt dizzy.
“Hmm…”
Nan Yan let out a low cry and almost fell down.
"Empress!"
Fortunately, Ruoshui, who had been guarding the door, was quick to act and supported her.
He Yi and the others behind him also hurried forward, and the King of Wei asked hurriedly, "My Lady Concubine, what's wrong with you?"
“…”
Nan Yan didn't speak immediately. Ruoshui and the others supported her, and after a few gentle shakes, she finally regained some composure, though she was still a little dizzy. She reached out and touched her forehead, saying softly, "No, I'm fine."
Ruan Hengzhou said with some concern: "Your Majesty, I see that you don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?"
“…”
Nan Yan frowned.
Of course it's uncomfortable.
Since Zhu Feng was assassinated this evening, she has been devastated. Since then, she has not eaten a single drop of water or a single grain of rice, running around in and out, until now——
She subconsciously looked up and saw a faint hint of paleness in the dark sky in the distance.
It's almost dawn.
She didn't sleep a wink the whole night, and she was constantly battling wits and courage with others.
At this time, she also understood why Zhu Feng, who had been fighting for many years and was originally a man with great martial arts skills and high vigilance, was stabbed in the vitals by Jie Shi. In addition to the fact that the environment at that time made him relax his vigilance, the most important thing was that before this day, he had not had a good rest for several days in a row.
Even the night before, I stayed up all night without sleeping.
Nan Yan is in this state now. If someone wants to hurt her, she might not be able to react.
Thinking of this, she sighed softly.
When the King of Wei heard her sigh, he was even more startled and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong with your majesty? Are you feeling unwell?"
Nan Yan immediately said, "I'm fine."
“…”
"Just a little sleepy, that's all."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Chengxuan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty has not rested at all since last night."
He Yi listened and said softly, "Your Majesty should also take care of your health."
“…”
"At this time, we must pay more attention."
Nan Yan glanced at him and understood what he meant. He had said before that Zhu Feng didn't care about his dragon body or even his own safety. This assassination attempt was a backlash of bad habits. Similarly, it was the same for herself.
If he fell at this moment - as he said, there would be no one to take charge of the situation.
Nan Yan took a deep breath and said, "I know."
Zhu Chengxuan looked up again and said, "It's almost dawn. Let's hurry back to the palace. Let's have Doctor Wang come and see the Empress. And over at the Xuanqiong Palace—"
Nan Yan said, "Let's go back first."
"yes."
The crowd surrounded her, quickly got on the carriage, and left the prison.
As if chasing the dawn, the carriage galloped along the empty long street. Nan Yan lifted the curtain from time to time and looked to the east, and could see the morning light gradually getting brighter. After a while, it had already dyed most of the dark sky.
It's almost dawn.
Even though he had imprisoned all the civil and military officials in the Xuanqiong Palace last night, the court still needed people to get up and work at dawn, and even a new batch of memorials would be submitted.
If we cannot appease the court officials and put everything on the right track, the situation will soon become chaotic.
She kept repeating in her heart: "Hurry up, hurry up..."
At this moment, a hand gently touched her shoulder.
When I turned around, it was Ruoshui.
She stayed by Nan Yan's side and whispered, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty hasn't slept a wink all night. Even if you can't sleep now, at least you can close your eyes and rest."
Hearing her say this, I remembered what He Yi said before.
Nan Yan smiled bitterly and followed her advice, leaning on her shoulder. Feeling Ruoshui's hand gently protecting her, so that she wouldn't be shaken so much, she closed her eyes.
The other carriage was a little more crowded because of the addition of He Yi.
However, they naturally could not squeeze into the King of Wei.
He Yi and Ruan Hengzhou sat side by side and saw His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei sitting opposite them. He had not slept all night and his eyes were bloodshot, but he was a young man after all, with a strong foundation, so he seemed energetic and even a little excited.
He Yi saw that he was frowning slightly, as if he was concentrating on something.
So he said, "What are you thinking about, Your Highness?"
