Chapter 159 Where else did you go?
Zhu Feng slowly walked to the table and sat down.
There were some documents on the table. It was unknown whether they were sent from the court or reported by the people he released today. Nan Yan saw him opening them one by one and even picking up a pen to review some of them.
Although it was already dark, the stuffiness in the room did not get any better.
He reviewed a few copies and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead. Seeing this, Nan Yan hurriedly took a fan and fanned him gently.
A cool breeze blew over, and I felt a lot more refreshed.
Zhu Feng wrote without looking up and said, "I've seen so much today. What do you think?"
Nan Yan hesitated for a moment: "This servant——"
"Don't tell me that nonsense. Only a fool would not have his own opinion on things."
“…”
Nan Yan glanced at him cautiously. Throughout the journey - ever since that unpleasant exchange of words between them, Zhu Feng had not been harsh on her. Now that he suddenly asked for her opinion, she was a little confused about what he was thinking.
But after thinking about it, she said honestly: "I can't see anything about military and national affairs, nor do I dare to have any opinions. It's just that after walking around this town for a while today, I felt something strange."
"What's strange about that?"
"We just had a war a few days ago. Logically, people's livelihood should be devastated after the war. However, I have noticed that trade in this border area seems to have not been affected at all."
“…”
"Yue's silk and other items are also being sold as usual."
“…”
"It really doesn't look like..."
As she said this, Zhu Feng had just finished writing the last word. He slowly put down his pen and said, "It really doesn't look like he just finished a battle."
Nan Yan said softly, "Yes."
“…”
Zhu Feng was silent for a while, then said to the outside of the door, "Someone come here."
A servant came in immediately and handed all the letters he had approved to the man. The man immediately turned around and left, and the door was closed again.
It was already very late at this time. Nan Yan said softly, "Sir, it's getting late. You should go to bed early."
“…”
Zhu Feng glanced at her and nodded.
Nan Yan walked over to the bed and made it for him first, then went to get a basin of lukewarm water. Zhu Feng sat down on the bed, watching her busy figure, and suddenly asked, "Where else did you and Jian Ruocheng go today?"
"I didn't go anywhere. I just wandered around the streets for a while."
"Just that?"
"Yes."
Not knowing why he asked this, Nan Yan looked at him cautiously.
Zhu Feng was also looking at her.
The light in the room was dim, but the dimmer the light, the sharper the pair of deep eyes looked. Nan Yan's heart trembled when she was looked at, and even her hands that were twisting the handkerchief softened.
She turned around quickly.
Why is he asking this?
Could it be that he still has something to worry about regarding himself and Jian Ruocheng?
She wrung the handkerchief until it was moist, and walked forward to present it to Zhu Feng. Zhu Feng looked at her for a while, then reached out to take the handkerchief, wiped his face a few times, and felt a little better.
Nan Yan took the handkerchief and was about to turn around and leave, but she felt something heavy on her hand.
Looking back, Zhu Feng still had the hand holding the handkerchief.
She felt confused, and then she saw Zhu Feng lowering his head, staring at her wrist.
