Chapter 2022: It’s too early to say don’t worry
The early morning in the wilderness should have been peaceful and tranquil.
But by this time, the camp was already abuzz with activity. From afar, a cloud of dust could be seen rising from Yumen Pass and spreading towards them. Upon closer inspection, they saw that it was the same group that had entered Tucheng yesterday. Now, they had all returned.
At the front of the team is Zhu Feng.
As soon as she saw him, Nan Yan's heart, which had been hanging in the air all night, finally settled down.
She smiled and hurried forward. Fortunately, Ran Xiaoyu was still conscious and quickly supported her, gently admonishing her, "My lady, please don't get too close. There are so many people and so much dust."
“…”
"When the emperor returns, he will naturally come to see you."
“…”
"There are so many people around now, what if someone bumps into you?"
"Well--"
Nan Yan hesitated for a moment and thought that was true.
Moreover, she had spent almost the entire night last night standing in the wind, chatting with Arslan. At that time, she was nervous and didn't think there was anything wrong. But now that she relaxed, she still felt her hands and feet were weak and her head was aching.
She whispered, "Xiaoyu, help me up."
Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly supported her and said, "Your Majesty's face is so pale, don't push forward."
"Um."
After all, she was worried about the baby in her belly, so she simply stood on this side.
From afar, one could see Zhu Feng leading the way in the sunlight, rushing directly into the camp, and the people behind him followed closely. The guards around him immediately stepped forward to greet him.
Seeing Zhu Feng return safely, a smile appeared on Nan Yan's face.
But the next moment, her expression froze slightly.
Because she saw that the rider following closely behind Zhu Feng was not Ye Zheng, nor Ying Shao, but Xue Yun.
Although it was possible for her to follow them into the city and walk to any place, she didn't know whether it was because Arslan said so many provocative words to her last night. Although she clearly expressed that she believed in Zhu Feng, those words were not completely useless.
At least, a darker shadow was cast in her heart.
So at this moment, when she saw Xue Yun following closely behind Zhu Feng, her heart suddenly sank from its original joy.
Ran Xiaoyu beside her also felt her breathing sink.
He immediately said, "My Lady?"
Nan Yan seemed not to hear it, just frowned slightly and looked ahead. Ran Xiaoyu also looked over and frowned.
Zhu Feng jumped off the horse, and Xue Yun followed immediately.
Although they didn't speak or communicate with each other, their movements were almost synchronized at that moment.
It seemed as if there was a tacit understanding between the two people.
And I don’t know if it’s because I have been wary of Xue Yun for a long time, so I have this illusion.
Although Xue Yun kept his head down and didn't look at Zhu Feng, Ran Xiaoyu always felt that her eyes and her entire mind were always on Zhu Feng, never leaving for a moment.
It wasn't like this before.
Before they entered Yumen Pass, Xue Yun didn't seem to have such an attitude.
Did something happen to them when they entered Yumen Pass this time?
It seems that it is too early to rest assured.
No matter what the imperial concubine said, as the head maid beside her, she still had to be on guard.
Thinking of this, Ran Xiaoyu turned around and looked at Nan Yan.
But Nan Yan's eyes were gloomy, and she was only looking at the tall figure in front of her.
