Chapter 1361 Why did the Emperor's attitude suddenly change?
Nan Yan's tears welled up all of a sudden, especially when she saw the chubby little Xiao Ping looking at her with red eyes, holding out his hands to her, his little mouth pouting as if he was about to cry: "Mother!"
"Xin Ping!"
Nan Yan couldn't wait to go forward and hugged her without saying anything.
Xinping's two chubby little hands immediately wrapped around her neck, hugging her tightly, sobbing, "Mother, Mother..."
She was still young, and although she could speak, she didn't know what language to use to express her longing and grievances, so she could only cry.
Only the hot tears flowed down Nan Yan's neck, burning her and making her shiver.
She couldn't help shedding tears.
"My heart is at peace!"
Holding my daughter in my arms, my heart felt like it was being pulled by something, but at the same time, feeling her attachment to me, I had an indescribable feeling of belonging.
This time, she did have a chance to leave this suffocating place, but even if the mysterious man hadn't told her that, she would still give up that opportunity.
She will come back.
If nothing else, just for peace of mind.
Nothing else matters, only peace of mind, she is her life!
She had no way of giving up this piece of flesh that had fallen from her body. She was still so small and so fragile. No one knew whether there would be any hidden arrows aimed at her in the storm of the harem.
But if she has, she is her best shield.
So, she would never leave her daughter, never!
Holding Xinping's chubby and soft body, Nan Yan was reluctant to let go. Zhu Chengxuan, who was standing by, felt a little reluctant when he saw this scene; but no matter how reluctant he was, he could not bear it anymore. After a while, everyone around had boarded the carriage and was ready to set off.
He whispered, "Your Highness, it's time for us to set off."
“…”
"I'm going to get in the carriage too."
“…”
"You, you hand the princess over to me first. We may meet again if there's a chance along the way."
“…”
Nan Yan reluctantly loosened her grip a little, and seeing Xin Ping holding back her lips, she reluctantly wiped the tears from her face with her small, fleshy hands, and whispered, "Mother, don't you want me?"
"How could that be? I was only very close to you."
"Mother, please don't abandon me."
"Of course not."
"Mother..."
"Xinping, be good. Get on the carriage with your brother, the King of Wei, first. I'll come see you when I have the chance."
Xinping sobbed as Zhu Chengxuan held her close. Tears fell like beads from a broken string, breaking Nanyan's heart. She could only say, "Thank you, King Wei, for your hard work. Please take care of her."
"Don't worry, Concubine."
Zhu Chengxuan looked at her, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. But in the end he just sighed and walked back holding Princess Xinping.
Only then did Nan Yan see that his carriage was following behind her own.
No wonder, she had the chance to meet Xinping.
After watching them get on the carriage, Nan Yan turned back reluctantly and was helped by Ran Xiaoyu to get on their carriage.
Just as Eunuch Yu said, breakfast was prepared for them, which consisted of some quite delicious snacks.
Ran Xiaoyu put the food in front of her, but Nan Yan had just met her daughter, so she couldn't eat anything at this time and just waved her hand.
Ran Xiaoyu asked, "How come Your Majesty is still like this after seeing Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
Nan Yan leaned against the window.
At this time, the convoy had begun to move forward slowly, the body of the car swaying, and even the curtains swayed with it. She looked at the deserted scene outside and said, "I just find it strange."
"W-what?"
"He should hate me to the core, why did his attitude change this time?"
“…”
Hearing this, Ran Xiaoyu's expression changed slightly and she immediately lowered her head.
Nan Yan was originally staring outside in a daze, but at this moment, she felt a strange atmosphere. She turned her head and saw Ran Xiaoyu's flickering eyes.
He frowned slightly and said, "Xiaoyu?"
The two of them are so familiar with each other that they can keenly detect any slight abnormality of the other.
She also realized that Ran Xiaoyu was obviously hiding something from her.
So he asked, "What's wrong?"
Ran Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment before she softly said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I couldn't stand it that day and said a lot to the emperor."
“…”
Nan Yan's breathing was slightly choked.
She sat up and asked solemnly, "What did you say?"
The convoy got on the official road. Fortunately, the weather had cleared up in the past two days, and the road was much easier to drive on. The wheels rolled and continued to move forward.
And in that monotonous sound, everyone in the carriage had their own emotions.
Concubine Hui and Concubine Ning were not in the same carriage, but their carriages were adjacent to each other, and they seemed to be able to feel the dull and even gloomy atmosphere in each other's carriages.
Looking at Feng Qianyan's gloomy face, Hanxiang said carefully: "Your Majesty, please don't be angry."
“…”
The more she spoke, the more Feng Qianyan gritted her teeth.
How can I not be angry?
Originally, a few days ago, the emperor had always asked Si Nanyan to accompany him in the carriage. Seeing her rolling in the mud made her in a good mood; and then, she was found to be pregnant, and Si Nanyan even "eloped" with Li Bushang. It was simply good news one after another.
She even thought that if she had a boy, he would have a bright future.
But I didn't expect——
Everything changed when Si Nanyan came back.
The emperor's attitude towards her suddenly became cold, but he treated Si Nanyan - although his attitude was not very good, he arranged a tent for her and asked everyone to sit outside and wait for her to wake up. Later, he arranged a carriage for her.
What kind of drug did she give to the emperor?
Feng Qianyan gnashed her teeth in hatred and said fiercely, "How can I not be angry? I am pregnant with the dragon seed, but I haven't received such treatment. Why does she deserve this? She is a criminal woman who eloped with a servant and was caught. Has the emperor lost his mind?!"
Hearing her say this, Hanxiang's face changed with fear, and she quickly stretched out her hand and waved at her.
"Your Majesty, be careful with your words!"
Feng Qianyan also bit her lower lip.
Hanxiang lifted the curtain and looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping. Then she leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Your Majesty, why are you panicking now? You still have the upper hand!"
“…”
Feng Qianyan glanced at her.
Hanxiang said softly to her belly, "Your Majesty, the entire harem is jealous of you."
Feng Qianyan reached out and gently touched her belly.
"Besides," Hanxiang whispered softly in her ear, "When we return to the capital, she will be sent to the cold palace. Then, Her Majesty can do whatever she wants."
