Chapter 1126: Uncle
The scorching heat didn't fade away at all until they returned to Jinlou Villa. When the carriage finally stopped, Zhu Feng's patience seemed to have reached its limit.
She was immediately dragged out of the car.
Nan Yan could also sense his eagerness at the moment, and even she herself had a little... desire that could not be expressed in words.
People who love each other always want to be closer to each other.
It was just that at this moment, once the man's mind was taken over by the evil spirit, his actions became somewhat uncontrollable, and his strength was even more uncontrollable. When she was dragged off the carriage by him, she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, his arms were still strong enough to protect her again.
Nan Yan couldn't help but glare at him.
But he saw Zhu Feng looking ahead with a slightly frown on his face.
Nan Yan was stunned and couldn't help turning her head to look at the gate of Jinlou Villa, but when she saw it, her eyes widened.
The gate of the villa was brightly lit.
Of course, the emperor had not returned yet, so it was impossible to keep it dark. However, under the bright lights, Queen Xu Miaoyin, Qin Ruolan, and everyone else stood at the door, solemnly standing.
It seems like I have been waiting for a long time.
Although they knew that they were coming to welcome the emperor when he returned, but now it was like this—
Zhu Feng really didn't want them to come to pick him up like this.
He just hoped that each of them would go back to their own room and stay there honestly, so that he could smoothly drag the little woman in his arms to his Liuhe Hall, or her Furong Residence.
So, Zhu Feng asked, "Why are you all here?"
"emperor--"
"Let's all go back."
As he said this, he waved his hand.
But Xu Miaoyin looked at him with a complicated expression, then led everyone in saluting him: "Welcome, Your Majesty."
Zhu Feng frowned again.
Generally speaking, the Queen was a very perceptive person. Sometimes, she could understand what he meant without him even saying anything, just a look or a glance. But today, even after he had spoken, she still led the others in a salute.
This situation is usually...
She has something to report.
Nan Yan, who was standing by, also noticed it and subconsciously pulled her arm out of his hand and stepped aside. There was still a bit of his warmth on her hand, and with Qin Ruolan staring at her intently, she felt as if she was about to be burned through.
Her face, even in the bright light, was frighteningly dark.
However, Nan Yan naturally would not be afraid of her.
Who would be afraid of her at this time?
But the Queen insisted on standing here to pay her respects to Zhu Feng. There must be something going on.
So, Nan Yan looked up at her, only to see Xu Miaoyin walk over a few steps and whisper, "Your Majesty, the old uncle has sent someone."
“…”
With just one word, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Even the wind stopped.
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment. What she said was a little difficult for her to digest for a while. Even Zhu Feng found it a little hard to digest.
He had forgotten everything that had happened in the past. Xu Miaoyin, He Yi and the others told him everything they could, but it was impossible to tell him everything that an emperor knew in just a few days. They could only mention many things briefly. They had originally planned to tell him everything in detail one by one when they met in the following days.
However, Zhu Feng decided to go to Jiaodong for inspection not long after, and encountered Prince Ning's rebellion.
So many things happened that they didn't have time to explain in detail.
For example, now.
Zhu Feng murmured, "Uncle of the Emperor...?"
Xu Miaoyin added, "The late queen's brother."
Zhu Feng immediately realized that it was his uncle.
He Yi had only mentioned it once before. For some reason, it seemed that they said very little about the late queen. The only thing he knew about her was that she was the only elder in his mother's family.
For some reason, Zhu Feng immediately felt his chest sink.
It was as if a huge invisible rock suddenly pressed down on his heart.
Feeling the change in his breath, Nan Yan hurriedly reached out to support him.
"emperor!"
Zhu Feng turned his head and glanced at her.
Before, the atmosphere between the two was hot and romantic, but at this moment, Zhu Feng's expression suddenly became a little lost, and Nan Yan also immediately woke up.
The old uncle of the emperor is the brother of the late Queen Chen.
Zhu Feng’s uncle—uncle in name only.
No wonder the Queen wanted to welcome him here, and brought so many people with her. The appearance of the Emperor's uncle as his elder was naturally a trivial matter. More importantly, Zhu Feng had been mentally disturbed before, forcing He Yi to activate the effect of the Tai Shang Wangqing medicine in his body, making him forget all his past. Wasn't it about his life experience?
Now that Empress Chen's brothers have arrived, will some forgotten past events be brought up again?
Nan Yan looked at him nervously.
To be honest, she doesn't need to care about anything else.
But there was no way to make Zhu Feng endure that kind of pain again, to make him forget it again, and she would have to endure being forgotten by him again.
Thinking of this, her breath sank.
She held Zhu Feng's hand a little harder, just like Zhu Feng had held her hand in his palm before.
She said, "Your Majesty, can I accompany you to see the old uncle?"
When a sense of uneasiness arose in his heart, Zhu Feng subconsciously didn't want to go and meet him - of course, this was impossible.
Regardless of whether he has forgotten the past or not, he always has a tender feeling in his heart for the late Queen Chen, his mother. He not only remembers her but also feels grateful to her. So, how could he not see her brother?
However, this young lady said she wanted to go with me to meet him, which is great.
No matter when, no matter what.
They can all face it together.
Then, he raised his head and said to Xu Miaoyin, "Where are the people?"
Xu Miaoyin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that his expression had returned to normal. She then said, "I have already arranged for someone to stay inside and am waiting for the emperor."
"good."
Zhu Feng nodded and walked inside with Nan Yan.
Naturally, the people standing at the door followed them and walked in together.
As they walked along the road, looking at the brightly lit lobby ahead, Zhu Feng suddenly ordered, "No one else needs to go in."
Everyone around was stunned.
Zhu Feng said, "As long as the Queen and the Imperial Concubine accompany me, it will be fine."
Qin Ruolan was stunned for a moment.
He only took the Queen and Si Nanyan with him, obviously not wanting other "outsiders" to follow, and he himself was actually classified as an "outsider".
She bit her lower lip, but could only stop.
Zhu Feng led Xu Miaoyin and Nan Yan forward. When they reached the lobby, they saw several figures standing solemnly inside, who had obviously been waiting there for a long time.
When Nan Yan saw clearly what those people were wearing, she couldn't help but gasp.
