Chapter 3373 The Queen is the Emperor’s Medicine
But looking around, there was no one around. If there really was some power helping Zhu Feng, it was probably God.
Thinking of this, she shook her head: "Nothing."
After saying that, she planned to go back with Chen Zixiao and the others. There was no time to ask at this time. In fact, she understood in her heart that Chen Zixiao must have discussed it with He Yi, and they came one after another. Fortunately, the two of them were more careful, otherwise it would be hard to say what the result would be today.
At this time, Zhu Chengjun walked to her side.
"Mother."
As soon as I saw him, the nervousness, confusion, and too many emotions disappeared in an instant.
Nan Yan smiled and reached out to touch Zhu Chengjun's face. There was still some dirt on his face, but at this time he didn't look embarrassed or funny. Instead, it looked like the scars on the soldiers' bodies, a kind of growth and achievement.
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Good boy."
Zhu Chengjun was still holding the knife he picked up from the ground. Only then did he realize that the knife was heavy and big, and it was completely disproportionate to his slender figure. He didn't know where the divine power came from at that moment that allowed him to lift the knife and fight with the soldiers of the Dian Kingdom.
The child who was so strong just now became well-behaved again when he walked to his mother's side.
He said softly, "Mother, please don't blame me."
Upon hearing this, Nan Yan came to her senses. Although Chen Zixiao and He Yi had rushed over, it was impossible for them to bring the King of Han with them. He must have overheard something and followed them secretly.
This child...
Nan Yan rubbed his hair hard again.
If Zhu Chengjun was still young, she would naturally punish him severely, or at least scold him, but after this incident, the child has indeed grown up. Scolding him again will not achieve any purpose, but will instead frustrate the child's desire to grow.
So she said, "You are grown up now. There are many things that I can teach children that I can no longer tell you. But when you grow up, you must behave like an adult. You must learn well."
Zhu Chengjun thought he would be scolded, but he didn't expect to hear such heartfelt words from his mother.
Instead, his eyes turned red, and he said softly, "I will never let Mother worry about you in the future."
Nan Yan said, "That's good."
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked over to Zhu Feng, preparing to return to Yumen Pass together. Zhu Chengjun then softly said, "But there's one more thing—Mother, Wen Bieyu and his uncle came here with me, but when we got here, we got separated by the sandstorm."
"What?"
Nan Yan frowned when she heard that.
Zhu Chengjun said cautiously, "Mother, can you send someone to look for them?"
Nan Yan didn't expect such a thing to happen again at this time, but she immediately ordered Ying Shao to send a team of people to search for the uncle and nephew in this area, and never let them run into the team of the Dian people.
Ying Shao immediately sent a team of people there.
Then he and Chen Zixiao led a large number of troops to escort the emperor, concubine and King of Han back to Yumen Pass.
At this time, it was already dawn.
The wind and sand had stopped, but the house where they rested last night was already full of sand and dust, even the sealed windows were blown apart. Nan Yan didn't care about anything else and immediately asked someone to send Zhu Feng back to the room, clean it up a bit, and then immediately asked He Yi to come and check on him.
They didn't bring any imperial physician with them on this trip, so He Yi was the only one who could take a look.
However, just as He Yi, covering his chest with his hands, his face pale and even with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, walked towards Zhu Feng, and was about to reach out to touch his forehead, Nan Yan suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist.
He Yi turned to look at her.
Nan Yan looked at him solemnly and said in a deep voice, "This time, you are not allowed to do anything to the emperor again."
He Yi said: "My Lady..."
Nan Yan said, "I will be watching from here. If you make any moves again, I will be the first one to not let you go, even without anyone else's help."
“…”
He Yi was silent for a long time, then turned to look at Zhu Feng lying on the bed. After a long while, he said with a wry smile, "The Emperor is already like this. Even if this humble minister wants to do something, it's too late."
Upon hearing this, Nan Yan's heart moved.
What he meant was that Zhu Feng was very likely to have already—
She immediately asked again: "Then, will this have any impact on the emperor?"
He Yi said: "I don't know at the moment. But——"
Nan Yan looked at him nervously: "But what?"
He Yi thought for a long time before saying, "However, I have discovered that your Majesty's presence seems to have some influence on the Emperor, and it's a good influence. Therefore, your Majesty must always stay by the Emperor's side."
At this point, he chuckled again and said, "Your Majesty is like the emperor's medicine."
This was said half jokingly. If it were any other time, Nan Yan would definitely scold him.
But this time, she didn't say anything. After all, when Zhu Feng was mad and wanted to kill even his own son, it was her appearance that calmed him down. Even when he was affected by the song sung by Princess Baoyin and was in a state of confusion, he always took her with him, as if he wanted to take her somewhere. At that time, Zhu Feng did not have any murderous intent.
It seems that I really have some influence on him.
Nan Yan took a deep breath, then let go of He Yi's wrist and said, "Just do your thing first."
He Yi nodded, then reached out to touch Zhu Feng's forehead and took his pulse.
There was a lot of chaos on the Yumen Pass side, and Mandu was not at ease after leaving with Princess Baoyin and Zuo Dadanghu and his party. They did not go directly to Kulun City, but found a place to stop. After all, he had traveled day and night to get here, and he was old, so he was very tired at this time.
But Princess Baoyin was obviously still angry.
She sat down beside Mandu angrily and said, "Uncle Mandu, why didn't you let us kill the Yan Kingdom Emperor just now? Even if this isn't revenge for Arslan, it's still a good thing."
Mandu sat there expressionless, deep in thought.
After a long while, he said calmly, "You can't kill him."
"Why?"
Mandu turned to look at her, then looked at Zuo Dadanghu, and then said, "Why didn't Hu and Lu succeed?"
Upon hearing this, Princess Baoyin's expression changed.
She saw Hu and Lu's final attack clearly. They were about to succeed, but for some reason, they missed at the last moment.
It was as if there was some invisible force protecting Zhu Feng.
She said, "I seem to—"
Before he could finish his words, a gust of wind suddenly blew around him.
Dust rose up and surrounded them like a wall, blurring their vision.
Mandu suddenly raised his head and looked into the depths of the wind and sand.
