Chapter 1527 You... are hot?
If you get there, you won’t know how complicated the terrain is.
Zhu Feng put one hand behind Nan Yan, leaned down, almost touching her body, and said, "This place is called—"
“…”
Nan Yan kept concentrating her attention to hear his words clearly, but Zhu Feng was so close to her - his body temperature was originally higher than that of ordinary people, and there was a floor heating in the bedroom, so Nan Yan felt like she was leaning against a stove.
Sweat condensed little by little on the forehead and the tip of the nose.
"Thermidor."
“…”
"Thermidor."
Zhu Feng slowly uttered these three words, then lowered his head, looking at Nan Yan's sweaty nose and red ears, and asked, "What's wrong?"
“…”
"You—are hot?"
Originally, she just felt that being close to him made her feel as hot as being roasted by a stove, but when he spoke like this in her ear, Nan Yan felt as if a little flame was burning in her heart.
An indescribable heat rushed out of my body.
She shook her head hurriedly: "No, no."
“…”
Zhu Feng looked at her for a while, his eyes flickering slightly, but he remained calm and continued, "Did you see anything?"
“…”
Nan Yan could only bite her lower lip and concentrate on looking at the map. Fortunately, she was not completely unfamiliar with these things. When Zhu Feng mentioned the sand bandits before, and then looked at the terrain of the Hot Moon Bend and the surrounding terrain, she immediately understood something.
Said: "This place is the only way to enter the customs."
"good."
"Besides, it's not far from Shazhouwei."
“…”
Zhu Feng's mouth curled up slightly, his eyes flickering as he said, "Isn't this place not far from Shazhouwei?"
“…”
"But I have set up the Shazhou Guard not far from here."
“…”
Nan Yan immediately turned to look at him: "Your Majesty, is this the place you want to deal with?"
Zhu Feng took a deep breath and said, "This place is near the border of our Great Yan Dynasty and borders the Kingdom of Dian, so bandits are rampant. Now that trade has begun, these people have turned to plundering passing caravans."
Nan Yan said: "That's why the emperor set up the Shazhou Guard here."
"good,"
Zhu Feng said, "Over the past few days, Ye Zheng has led the troops and has dealt with quite a few bandits."
"oh……"
Hearing this, Nan Yan nodded slightly.
In other words, Ye Zheng was fine and had even made many military achievements.
She felt relieved for Ran Xiaoyu, and also a little emotional. At that time, she had told Ran Xiaoyu that Ye Zheng looked careless, but he always did things with reason and logic. Now, he was constantly making progress, and Ran Xiaoyu could not always stay in the past.
An innocent and reckless girl is indeed a good match for a boy.
However, when the boy grew up to be a high-ranking official in charge of governing a region, the girl could no longer remain naive and reckless.
Feeling that Nan Yan was a little absent-minded, Zhu Feng showed an unhappy look on his face.
"what's on your mind?"
"ah?"
Nan Yan quickly came back to her senses, smiled, and said, "I was thinking that Ye Zheng's behavior is also a face for the emperor."
After all, he had followed Zhu Feng since he was a child, and he learned the skills of marching and fighting from him.
If students can achieve this, it proves that the teacher is good.
Zhu Feng snorted coldly and said calmly, "Great face? I'm glad he didn't embarrass me."
"What's wrong?"
"He has almost wiped out those bandits here, but he still hasn't eliminated the biggest force here."
"The largest force?"
"good."
Zhu Feng pointed at the Hot Moon Bend and said, "Those bandits lingered around here, and some of them gathered forces, gradually growing stronger and forming a powerful bandit force. They occupied the Hot Moon Bend as their base, and from time to time harassed the border towns and the herdsmen of the Neng Kingdom."
“…”
"Now that trade has begun, they plunder passing caravans."
“…”
"Some of the remnants of the bandits that were wiped out by Ye Zheng have nowhere else to go, so they joined their ranks. Now, their power is growing. I heard that there are at least thousands of them."
Nan Yan was shocked: "So many?"
Although this number is not large compared to the imperial army, it is a very astonishing number compared to the bandits on the border.
Moreover, it can be seen at a glance that this hot moon is in a dangerous position and is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
So many people, such treacherous terrain.
No wonder Ye Zheng couldn’t get it.
Nan Yan said: "Then, the 800-mile express message the emperor received earlier said—"
Zhu Feng said, "He launched another attack, but it was still in vain, and he even suffered a slight loss."
Nan Yan suddenly said nervously: "Is he not injured?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her and said, "Why do you care if he's injured or not?"
“…”
Nan Yan was choked by his words. She looked at him again for a long moment before she said softly, "Your Majesty, why is you so angry with me? Doesn't Your Majesty know that I'm asking this question on behalf of Ran Xiaoyu?"
“…”
"Although she hasn't said anything these days, I know that she has always been thinking about Ye Zheng in her heart. She just can't say it out loud."
“…”
"There's news about Ye Zheng, so of course I want to ask her a few more questions."
After hearing her say this, Zhu Feng snorted softly.
A hint of a smile seemed to flicker in his eyes, but he still didn't let go. He only said, "If she wants to know, let her ask me herself."
“…”
"She's already grown up, and she still needs your help with this little thing?"
“…”
Nan Yan sighed.
Zhu Feng's words were not without reason, so she could only say softly, "I understand."
Zhu Feng nodded and continued to look down at the locations and roads on the map that were extremely important to him. He slowly said, "As for Ye Zheng, no matter how fierce the battle is or how dangerous the war is, he cannot retreat."
“…”
"After all, he asked to go there on his own initiative."
Nan Yan's heart sank again when she heard this.
But she suddenly came to her senses: "Ask for a favor? Ye Zheng went there to ask for a favor?"
“…”
Zhu Feng was silent for a moment before he said, "At that time, I was also interested in him, but it depended on his attitude. And he also asked to go on his own initiative. So—"
"So that's how it is."
"That's why, even if he dies, he must die there. He must not retreat!"
“…”
"I've entrusted him with such an important task, he must deliver results!"
"Important...pass?"
When Nan Yan heard this, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
She subconsciously lowered her head, but felt Zhu Feng's burning gaze on her: "You don't know, do you?"
