Chapter 2725 This is called "premature graying"!
He has white hair again.
I had seen some silver hair on his temples before, and I even pulled out a strand for him. Unexpectedly, the more I pulled out, the more silver hair appeared, and now I can see some on the back of his head.
Nan Yan's expression darkened.
Zhu Feng had his hands on his knees, waiting for her to dry her hair so he could go to bed and rest. When he felt her stop, he turned his head to look at her: "What's wrong?"
At first glance, I saw her holding her hair in a daze.
I couldn't help but smile and said, "Why, did you see my white hair?"
“…”
Nan Yan was startled and immediately said, "No."
“…”
"How can the emperor have white hair? No."
Zhu Feng chuckled twice and said, "Didn't you pull one out while I was sleeping last time?"
"...The Emperor knows?"
"Nonsense, someone pulled out my hair, how could I not know?"
“…”
"I'm just too lazy to argue with you."
Seeing him like this, as if he didn't care at all, Nan Yan sighed softly, knelt down, held his hair and said, "How come you have white hair? Your Majesty shouldn't stay up late. Oh, by the way, I remember there seem to be two very good Polygonum multiflorum roots in the imperial pharmacy. Ask them to bring them to Your Majesty."
Zhu Feng laughed and said, "Why bother? I don't care about this."
"How can I not care?"
Nan Yan's voice rose several degrees, especially when she held his hair, which felt as smooth as water and really made people love it. Now there were a few silver threads mixed in it, just like piercing her heart.
She murmured again, "The Emperor doesn't care, but I do."
Zhu Feng slowly turned around and looked at her.
He pulled his hair back, reached out to hold Nan Yan's hand, and said with a smile: "Why, do you think I'm old?"
Nan Yan immediately said, "The emperor is not old."
“…”
"It's called 'premature graying'!"
“…”
"It's all because the Emperor is always worried about state affairs, often staying up late in the Imperial Study, and not paying attention to health maintenance, that's why he's like this."
Zhu Feng laughed and said, "A premature gray hair? Do you really think I'm still a young man?"
“…”
"I am no longer a young man. Even when I first met you, I was no longer one."
“…”
"However, I never care about these things. Only pretty boys care about whether their faces are white or their hair is black. I don't live by these things."
Nan Yan pouted and looked at him.
Seeing her like this, Zhu Feng was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Okay, then use the Polygonum multiflorum if you want. It would be great if it can really make your skin darker."
Nan Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned her head to look at the sky outside, immediately knelt up, and said anxiously: "Oh, it's so late, Your Majesty, don't move. I will quickly dry your hair and go to bed early. You can't stay up late anymore."
Zhu Feng said with a smile: "Okay."
He turned around and sat up straight, letting Nan Yan busy herself behind him for a while. His hair was finally dry. He lay down on the bed, and after Nan Yan had tidied everything, she also got on the bed and snuggled directly into his arms, while Zhu Feng also put his arm around her.
Nan Yan looked up and said, "Your Majesty, please go to sleep."
"Um."
Zhu Feng closed his eyes, but after a while, Nan Yan could still hear his waking breathing. She could tell the difference between Zhu Feng asleep and awake, so she whispered, "Your Majesty, why aren't you asleep yet?"
Zhu Feng opened his eyes and glanced at her: "You haven't slept either?"
Nan Yan said, "I was wondering how to eat Polygonum multiflorum."
Zhu Feng couldn't help laughing when he heard it, and continued to squint his eyes. Nan Yan rested her chin on his chest and asked softly, "What is the emperor thinking about?"
Zhu Feng said, "I'm thinking about what matters need to be decided at tomorrow morning's court session. There are also some matters that can be left for the cabinet to discuss."
"oh……"
"Recently, the security in the capital has to be taken seriously. After all, with so many people returning from White Dragon City, the resettlement of those families is a major issue."
“…”
"Also, Li Bu Shang."
"No harm?"
Nan Yan was a little sleepy at first, but when she heard the name, she suddenly became alert and opened her eyes wide: "What happened to him?"
Zhu Feng said, "Have you forgotten what I told you before? I have decided to grant him a mansion so that he can settle down."
"Oh, yes, I remember now."
"I've been so busy thinking about disaster relief these past two days that I haven't had time to give instructions on this matter."
Nan Yan said, "Your Majesty, there's no need to be so involved in all matters. Let Eunuch Yu handle this matter."
Zhu Feng said, "He's old now. It's fine to let him handle palace affairs, but it's not good to let him handle matters outside the palace."
“…”
After hearing what he said, Nan Yan suddenly understood.
Eunuch Yu is indeed quite old.
Among Zhu Feng's closest associates, besides Ye Zheng, there was Yufu. Now that Ye Zheng had entered the imperial court, Yufu had been in charge of all matters within the inner palace, and was considered Zhu Feng's confidant. In the past, Zhu Feng would bring him with him when he left the palace, and on these few tours, it was Xiao Shunzi who served by his side. He was kept in the palace out of consideration for his age.
Nan Yan said: "Then this matter——"
Zhu Feng said, "Now, Yufu has basically handed over most of his duties to Shunzi. Besides serving in the imperial study, he also takes care of the people around him. Let Shunzi handle this matter as well."
"Then in the future, will all of Eunuch Yu's affairs be handed over to Xiao Shunzi? But the matters inside and outside——"
"Let's wait until the people around him have some experience and start doing things. He's not that old yet."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "That's good. I was worried that the people around His Majesty would not be able to help, and His Majesty would be even more tired."
Zhu Feng said, "Since you said so, how about you share some of my worries?"
Nan Yan immediately stood up and asked, "What does the emperor want me to do?"
Zhu Feng squinted his eyes and glanced at her, then smiled, "It's not a big deal, no need to be so nervous. It's about the mansion given to Li Bushang. I plan to have Xiao Shunzi take a look and report back to you. You choose one, and I'll give it to him once he's chosen."
"Why let me choose?"
"I don't trust others to choose me."
After hearing this, although Zhu Feng said it was not a big deal, Nan Yan took it more seriously.
After all, Li Bushang was the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, not an ordinary official, and his residence should be under the control of the court.
Nan Yan asked, "What does the Emperor want me to choose?"
Zhu Feng laughed and said, "You forgot? Didn't the Xie family also move to the capital?"
"ah!"
When Nan Yan heard this, she immediately understood: "The emperor means that the mansion given to Bu Shang should be closer to the Xie family?"
Zhu Feng said, "Close, but not too close."
“…”
"Don't forget what I told you before."
