Chapter 2977 He won't want to see me again
Nan Yan said with a complicated expression: "Your Majesty, do you really want to let her go?"
Zhu Feng said, "Whether she goes or not, I have no say in the matter, nor should I be the one to decide."
Nan Yan frowned.
This is not wrong. Of course, the emperor is rich and controls all the people. He can indeed order others to do anything. But even if he can control foreigners, Xu Miaoming is an outsider, not to mention that she is the sister of Empress Renxiao.
It seems that Zhu Feng should not restrict her actions in any way, both emotionally and logically.
But the more this happened, the more worried Nan Yan became.
Xu Miaoming's appearance and the invitation sent by Hang Seng Bank to her to accompany her seemed too coincidental and too strange. Now Zhu Feng only brought her, Li Bushang and the others. Even though there were a lot of people, they were still on someone else's territory. A strong dragon could not suppress a local snake. What if something unexpected happened again?
The previous assassination incident at Li Bushan's house was already a nightmare that was too terrible.
Nan Yan thought for a while and said, "Then, I want to go too!"
Zhu Feng glanced at her and said calmly, "The post also mentioned that you're invited. But, do you really want to go?"
"certainly!"
Nan Yan acted as if it was natural, not caring at all about her status as a noble concubine. In fact, she shouldn't be showing up in public like this. Seeing her like this, Zhu Feng didn't stop her. He just said, "You can go, but you must promise me not to say or do anything rash."
Nan Yan looked up at him.
Zhu Feng also looked into her eyes and said seriously: "The most important thing is to always stay by my side!"
Hearing this, Nan Yan pursed her lips, revealed a little smile, and said softly: "I know."
Zhu Feng nodded, turned to look at the sky outside, and said, "Alright, go get ready. By the way, since you're going to a banquet, it's best to bring two people with you. Ran Xiaoyu, is she feeling better?"
Although Zhu Feng came here this time, openly following Li Bushang and his men, and secretly, there was another group of people following him, but no matter what, he still hoped that the people close to Nan Yan would be more reliable.
This was what Ran Xiaoyu was like in the past.
However, ever since I saw her frail body in Cuicang County, she has been almost always sick until now. No matter what happens outside, she has been taking care of her body, and Nan Yan does not allow her to move around casually.
Nan Yan immediately said, "She's in that condition. She needs to be taken care of."
Zhu Feng frowned and said, "She shouldn't be so weak. She can't get better. You should see what's wrong with her."
Nan Yan sighed softly: "What could be wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Feng's eyes twitched unconsciously.
Yes, what could be wrong?
Even he himself would be covered in cold sweats and even twitch because of nightmares when he went to bed at night. Even if he didn't say it, Nan Yan saw all of this.
Ye Zheng’s death is just the beginning.
I don’t know how long the pain I leave for those around me will last.
Thinking of this, Zhu Feng's expression darkened for a moment, and he said in a deep voice, "Go see her again."
Nan Yan nodded: "Yes."
In the afternoon, Nan Yan really went to the small house where she lived. Since entering Xu Miaoming's house, Ran Xiaoyu rarely saw people and had been living in this small house. In the past two days, only the girls serving here brought her medicine and meals on time. But when Nan Yan walked in, she saw that the food on the table was almost untouched.
She sat alone at the head of the bed, staring blankly out the window.
The spring weather was bright and beautiful, but her face was filled with a gloomy expression.
Nan Yan said softly: "Xiao Yu..."
Ran Xiaoyu seemed not to hear her voice. After a long while, she seemed to hear it again. She slowly raised her head, glanced at Nan Yan, was stunned for a moment, and was about to stand up to salute her.
"Your Majesty..."
“That’s enough!”
Nan Yan pushed her back, sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the food on the table, and said, "Why don't you eat?"
Ran Xiaoyu also took a look and said lightly: "I can't eat it."
"Even if you can't eat, you should still eat a little. You know how the human body is nourished."
“…”
"Are you going to stay sick like this?"
“…”
"I was originally thinking that if you could go with me on such an important matter today, it would be completely safe, but if you are like this, I can't take you out."
She said these words originally to arouse Ran Xiaoyu's sense of responsibility and competitive spirit.
After all, since the two of them met, Ran Xiaoyu has been at all times involved in her affairs, risking her life without complaint, and always rushing to take the most dangerous responsibilities on her shoulders.
But at this time, after listening to Nan Yan's words, she didn't react at all.
The man seemed a little dazed, sitting there motionless.
Nan Yan frowned and said softly, "Xiao Yu?"
"ah……?"
Ran Xiaoyu looked up at her again, and after a moment, she asked, "Where are you going today, Madam?"
“…”
Nan Yan looked at her in silence for a long while, then sighed softly and said, "I am going to accompany the emperor to attend the banquet hosted by Hengsheng Bank at Jiuqu Tower. I wonder what they are thinking."
Ran Xiaoyu nodded silently, as if she didn't know what to say.
Nan Yan felt as if something was stabbing her heart when she saw her like this. After a long while, she slowly said, "You still need to eat something. If you are hungry, you will only become weaker and weaker, and your illness will become more serious. Xiaoyu, I know what you have been through, but it is all in the past. You also need to understand that no matter what you do... those who are gone are gone."
“…”
"If he were still here, what would he do if he saw you like this?"
“…”
Ran Xiaoyu didn't say anything. Nan Yan looked at her somewhat dull eyes and saw a faint glimmer of light. She seemed to be seriously considering what would happen if Ye Zheng saw her like this.
Nan Yan said, "He'll laugh until his belly bursts."
“…”
"He will definitely laugh at you. You just can't live without him. You become so sickly every day he's away. You're nothing like the Ran Xiaoyu you used to be."
“…”
"You want him to tease you like that?"
Ran Xiaoyu lowered her head for a long time before she raised it and looked at her. She shook her head gently and said, "He won't."
Nan Yan said, "No? You mean, he won't make fun of you?"
“…”
"With his personality, it would be strange if he didn't make fun of you!"
Ran Xiaoyu shook her head again and said, "I said no, it's not that he won't make fun of me."
“…”
"I mean, he won't want to see me again."
Nan Yan's heart suddenly sank.
