Chapter 2563: Fool, why did I lie to you?
Nan Yan was helping him button his shirt. She lowered her head and whispered, "What did the emperor dream about last night?"
Zhu Feng said: "You."
“……!”
Nan Yan's hand trembled slightly, and she continued to button his shirt.
"I don't believe it."
After saying that, she helped him put on his clothes and straightened the corners of his clothes. Then she turned around and went back to the bed and lay down with her face buried in the pillow, as if she didn't want to talk to him anymore.
Zhu Feng stood where he was, turned to look at her, and said nothing.
The room fell silent.
After a long time, there was still no sound. Nan Yan thought he had left, but she felt a hand patting her waist lightly.
"Um?"
Nan Yan was slapped so hard that she almost jumped up. When she looked back, she saw Zhu Feng turning around and walking out, saying as he walked, "Fool, why would I lie to you?"
After saying that, the figure disappeared out the door.
“…”
Nan Yan stared blankly at the sunlight streaming in from the door. It was warm, and she could see a lot of dust floating in it, which made her feel a little sleepy. She buried her face in the pillow again and took a deep breath.
The pillow and bedding are full of his scent.
Surrounded by such a familiar atmosphere, with some thoughts flickering in her mind, she fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, it was already noon.
Hearing someone pushing the door open, Nan Yan, who was sleeping soundly, wanted to raise her head, but her head felt like it weighed a thousand pounds and she couldn't even lift it up.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and a pair of hands grabbed her shoulders and turned her over.
Fresh, slightly cool air immediately entered my nostrils.
Nan Yan shuddered and opened her eyes.
Then she saw Zhu Feng sitting beside the bed, holding her shoulders and picking her up. He frowned and said, "Did you really sleep for so long? Aren't you afraid of getting dizzy?"
Nan Yan whispered, "Your Majesty, I have a headache..."
"After sleeping for so long, it would be strange if it didn't hurt."
“…”
"Hurry up, wash up, and have dinner with me."
“…”
"You'll feel better if you eat something."
Nan Yan was still a little drowsy, so Zhu Feng carried her out of bed and washed her face with cold water. Nan Yan immediately woke up and hurried to wash up. After she managed to comb her hair and changed into a neat long skirt, food was delivered to her from the kitchen.
There was a table set up.
It was obvious at a glance that extra dishes were served because the imperial concubine had arrived. Based on Zhu Feng's usual habits, he definitely couldn't eat so much.
Zhu Feng sat at the table and said to her, "Come here quickly. I asked you about it. You came here yesterday evening and didn't eat anything at night. You've been sleeping here until now. You must be starving, right?"
"Um."
"Hurry, drink a bowl of soup first to moisten your stomach."
As he spoke, he personally served her a bowl of soup, which Nan Yan took and began to drink.
She was indeed very hungry. In fact, during her last nap, she was sleeping hungry. She wanted to get up several times, but she was too hungry to move and fell asleep again.
Fortunately, Zhu Feng came, otherwise, I would have starved to death in bed.
Seeing her holding a bowl of soup and drinking it with gusto, her eyes lit up after half a bowl of soup was gone, staring at the dishes on the table with a gleam in her eyes. Zhu Feng couldn't help but smile and said, "Eat quickly, I'm hungry too."
"Um."
Nan Yan put down the soup bowl, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
Although the meals here are not as exquisite as those in the imperial kitchen, it is the meal for His Majesty the Emperor and the Imperial Concubine after all, so the kitchen had already made preparations and prepared some exquisite dishes.
There are also one or two simple and rustic dishes that go well with rice.
It is precisely this kind of dish that is most appetizing.
Zhu Feng picked up a piece of green vegetable with chopsticks and placed it on Nan Yan's plate. He said, "Have some of this. This is sand onion, which is only available here and is also a good thing."
"Uh-huh."
Nan Yan didn't say anything, just kept eating, with oil all over the corners of her mouth.
Zhu Feng had finished eating, and turned to see Nan Yan still eating. He smiled and watched her eat at first, but after watching for a while, he became a little worried and reached out to hold her wrist.
Nan Yan looked up at him: "Your Majesty?"
Zhu Feng said, "How can you be like this? And don't eat too much."
"But I'm not full yet."
"Just eat enough. Eating too much all at once after being hungry for a long time is bad for your stomach."
“…”
"Besides, there's another meal tonight."
"ah?"
"You declined the dinner last night, but according to the rules, Chen Zixiao still had to host a welcoming banquet for the imperial concubine."
Nan Yan frowned upon hearing this and said, "Forget it. I don't want to sit there like a statue. Besides, this Handongwei is a garrison. Why do we need so many rules?"
“…”
"Your Majesty, please help me push it."
Zhu Feng looked at her for a while before smiling and shaking his head. He turned to Xiao Shunzi outside and said, "Go tell Chen Zixiao that there's no need to have the dinner tonight. The imperial concubine wants to sleep a little longer."
Nan Yan listened and glared at him.
Xiao Shunzi responded and ran away laughing.
Zhu Feng turned around, pressed her hand and said, "Don't eat anymore, you've eaten enough. I'll take you out for a walk later to help you digest the food."
Nan Yan could only put down her bowl and chopsticks with a wronged look on her face.
The two men walked to the other side and sat down. Hot tea was immediately served and the dishes on the table were cleared away. Zhu Feng took a sip of tea and said, "I calculated your journey and it would take you two days to arrive. How come you arrived last night? I asked—asked them, why were you in such a hurry? Why didn't you even stop at a post station along the way?"
Nan Yan looked up at him and said, "Your Majesty, Monk is here to see me."
“……!”
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Him? Looking for you?"
"He wanted to cooperate with the Emperor, so he showed up on the way and asked me to bring a message to the Emperor."
Nan Yan repeated the conditions proposed by Monk.
Zhu Feng drank tea and listened quietly.
After finishing speaking, Nan Yan continued, “Originally, I wanted to wait for another person to appear.”
Zhu Feng looked at him: "Arslan?"
"Well, even Monk would think of this. There's no way he wouldn't think of it."
“…”
"I originally thought that if he showed up and also proposed his conditions and benefits, we would help whichever side was better."
“…”
"In the end, he never showed up."
At this point, Nan Yan couldn't help but frown and muttered, "Could it be that he's so stupid? I heard that the Imperial Preceptor who was with King Beili before was clearly following him. If he can't think of it, then neither can the Imperial Preceptor."
Zhu Feng smiled faintly and said, "He thought of it."
"Um?"
Nan Yan looked up at him, only to see Zhu Feng smiling and saying, "Not only did he think of it, but he also skipped this step in the middle."
“…”
"He came directly to me."
