Chapter 1215 I'm Just Tease You
Nan Yan said, "Master, Xuan'er will stay here."
Jian Ruocheng said, "Madam, you can rest assured. He will not be in danger until the truth comes out."
“…”
Having said that, whether it is dangerous or not is secondary.
If Zhu Feng knew that his son was detained in Zhujian Academy, it would be a big deal. Once the emperor was furious, no one knew what the result would be.
Nan Yan looked at them with a worried look on her face. Jian Ruocheng had already asked several older students to go downstairs to arrange a room for Zhu Chengxuan and Li Bushang.
But Zhu Chengxuan immediately said, "Master, there's no need to arrange a room for us. We'll stay wherever this patient stays."
"oh?"
Jian Ruocheng looked at him: "Why?"
"I need to keep an eye on his condition to prevent him from being in any danger again."
Xia Fuxiu, who was standing by, sneered, "It's dangerous. I think it's only dangerous when you're around."
Li Bushang glanced at him and said coldly, "Young Master, you have your responsibilities. If you are worried, you can send more people to keep an eye on us for twelve hours every day."
"this--"
Jian Ruocheng thought for a moment and said, "That's a good idea. I'll send three shifts of people over every day, two at a time, to help you look after Qian Xiuwen."
Zhu Chengxuan smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
After he finished speaking, someone came over with a rattan chair and moved the injured person onto it. Zhu Chengxuan kept saying, "Be careful, don't hold him. Let his head lie flat, be careful..."
As he spoke, he walked inside.
Other students followed in.
Nan Yan then turned to look at Jian Ruocheng.
The two of them sat in silence for a while, and she finally said, "Thank you, Second Young Master."
Jian Ruocheng looked at her, but his voice seemed particularly indifferent, or rather, cold: "You don't have to thank me, I didn't intend to help you, and I didn't help you."
“…”
"I just want to see what he'll do."
Nan Yan's heart trembled: "Second Young Master..."
Jian Ruocheng sneered and said, "His son was detained, and I lost all my family. He didn't even feel one ten-thousandth of my pain. I want to see what he will do."
Nan Yan's throat was choking from time to time.
She knew that it was useless to say anything now, because no one could understand Jian Ruocheng's pain. In the face of such great sorrow and pain of losing all her loved ones, any so-called understanding and consideration were illusory.
She could only whisper: "Then I'll go first."
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
Jian Ruocheng stood there, looking at her thin figure, her shoulders drooping slightly, looking so frail and vulnerable. He wanted to step forward and protect her several times, but he never did.
Neither can I.
Just as he silently watched Nan Yan's back disappear at the gate, a cold voice sounded behind him: "Master, what is going on? Can you tell me?"
“…”
Jian Ruocheng slowly turned around.
Xia Fuxiu's sneering face came into view.

Nan Yan didn't say a word along the way.
Ran Xiaoyu knew that she must be worried and panicked, so she quietly accompanied her. The journey was particularly difficult, but in the evening, they returned to the old palace.
Before the carriage stopped, Eunuch Yu was seen standing in front waiting.
As soon as he saw Nan Yan get off the carriage, he hurried forward to bow to her and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is finally back. The Emperor has been talking about you for a long time."
Nan Yan forced a smile and said, "Really?"
"Yes, your Majesty, please go in quickly. I still have to wait for His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei. He is really something. He has been gone for most of the day and still hasn't come back. I'm afraid he has gone wild."
Nan Yan was silent for a moment, then said, "No need to wait, sir."
"Um?"
Eunuch Yu turned to look at her, and seeing a hint of worry between her brows, he immediately sensed something: "Madam, what's wrong?"
Nan Yan said, "Take me to see the emperor first. Eunuch, if the emperor gets angry later, you can help to calm him down."
“…”
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Yu's expression became solemn.
You know, in the harem, no matter how angry the emperor is with others, it is just a light breeze and drizzle to the imperial concubine; but if even the imperial concubine is afraid of his temper, it would be a big deal.
Eunuch Yu said, "Then, let's go."
After saying that, the group walked inside.
Zhu Feng had finished handling government affairs for the day. At this time, he was sitting in the Yiku Palace, fiddling with the teacup on the table with one hand.
As soon as he heard the footsteps outside, he immediately turned around and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
But, as if he thought of something, he quickly suppressed his smile.
Nan Yan had already followed Eunuch Yu inside and knelt before him: "Your Majesty."
Zhu Feng looked at her sullenly and said, "You are becoming more and more unruly."
"emperor……"
"I allowed you to go home and take a look, but you've been gone all day. Don't you want to come back?"
“…”
"You still want me to let you leave the palace again?"
Nan Yan knelt on the ground with her head lowered, listening to his pretended angry voice, but her body began to tremble involuntarily.
Zhu Feng was just venting his anger at first, but when he saw her with her head down and her hands trembling on her knees, he realized something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong?"
“…”
"Are you really scared? I was just teasing you."
“…”
"Get up quickly."
Nan Yantou didn't even dare to raise her head, and said softly, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"What's going on?"
"I did go home today, but I didn't go home right away because I went somewhere else."
"Somewhere else? Where did you go?"
"Bamboo Academy..."
Upon hearing these four words, Zhu Feng's face suddenly darkened.
Seeing this, Eunuch Yu and Ran Xiaoyu beside them also put their heads on the backs of their hands and said softly, "Your Majesty, calm down!"
Zhu Feng stared at Nan Yan and said in a deep voice, "Zhujian Academy? Who asked you to go there?"
“…”
"You, you just—"
He originally wanted to say, "Can't you bear to go see him?", but after hesitating for a moment, he couldn't say it after all. However, the more he didn't say it, the more the anger in his heart surged up, almost burning his head.
He said solemnly: "What are you going to do?!"
Nan Yan knelt on the ground and said softly, "Your Majesty, it wasn't that I wanted to go there on my own. I was halfway back to the palace when I heard something happened there, so I had no choice but to go to the Bamboo Academy instead."
"Something happened?"
Zhu Feng's eyes flashed, and he suddenly remembered that early in the morning, King Wei took a sign and left the palace to go to the academy.
Could it be that——
He said in a deep voice: "Did something happen to the King of Wei?"
Eunuch Yu standing by was also frightened and looked at Nan Yan with his eyes wide open.
Nan Yan said, "The students at the academy said that His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei had killed someone, so they detained him."
