Chapter 2210: It seems like a storm is coming...
Seeing him like this, Nan Yan's heart ached.
Not only she could feel the sadness in Zhu Feng's heart at the moment. Even though she and the Queen had some estrangements and even some disagreements in the process of getting along, the two of them were still harmonious after all.
Moreover, after she fell ill, I really took on the responsibility of assisting the six palaces, and only then did I realize how boring her daily life was and how much unknown sadness she had.
Compared to the favor she received from Zhu Feng, she was really lonely and had a hard time.
Now, someone who has been with her day and night is leaving. Just from an emotional point of view, Nan Yan feels very uncomfortable.
She put down her bowl and chopsticks, reached out, and gently stroked the back of Zhu Feng's hand.
Her hands were slightly cold.
Zhu Feng's hands were not warm either.
Listening to the whistling wind outside, she raised her head and looked at the window that was temporarily covered with window paper. The shadows of the trees swayed, and gusts of coolness came with the wind.
The cold winter is coming.
The two of them just looked at each other in silence. In the end, it was Zhu Feng who was the first to pull himself out of his sadness.
As an emperor, he did not allow himself to be too indulged in a certain emotion.
After all, there are still many things to be dealt with in the former court and the harem.
After coaxing Nan Yan to eat a little more, he saw that her face had turned a little redder and her spirits had improved a lot, so he said, "Do you have the strength now?"
Nan Yan nodded.
Then he looked at him and asked, "Why does the emperor ask this?"
Zhu Feng said, "Everything outside has been tidied up, and I've also had the bedroom tidied up. We really can't live here any longer. Otherwise, if you don't take good care of yourself during your confinement, you'll develop health problems in the future."
“…”
"Tonight, move to my bedroom."
Nan Yan nodded, but looked outside again.
It was dark and the wind was very loud.
She thought for a moment and said, "Now that my luck is over, it would be inconvenient to move there. Besides, I haven't finished packing here yet."
"and you--"
"Why not wait until tomorrow? When tomorrow morning comes, I'll have them pack up overnight and at least gather up some of the things they need so they can take them over."
Seeing her say that, Zhu Feng nodded: "Okay."
“…”
"Then you should get a good rest tonight."
"I know."
As soon as the two of them finished eating, Xiao Shunzi, who was guarding outside, asked someone to come in to clear the dishes and served two cups of hot tea. Nan Yan asked them to leave first, and she stayed alone with Zhu Feng.
After everyone left, she lowered her voice and whispered, "Your Majesty, that—"
"Um?"
Zhu Feng was drinking tea when he heard her calling him. He looked up at her and asked, "What?"
Nan Yan lowered her voice a little, as if she was afraid someone would overhear their conversation, and whispered, "Military Token..."
In fact, she had always wanted to ask this question since she met Zhu Feng.
However, there were people around her at the time, and later, the two of them started eating and talked about the queen's illness, leaving her no time to care about anything else.
At this time, she really couldn't hold back any longer.
He asked carefully, "Did you find it?"
“…”
Zhu Feng didn't say anything.
Just looking at the flickering candlelight, several deep wrinkles appeared between his eyebrows.
Nan Yan's heart sank.
She spoke dryly, "No, didn't find it?"
“…”
Zhu Feng didn't say anything.
And silence is already a tacit agreement.
Nan Yan's heart seemed to have sunk into a bottomless abyss. The oppressive feeling made her breathing become tight. Still unwilling to give up, she asked again, "Really, you didn't find it?"
Zhu Feng reached back and held her hand.
A tear burst out of her eyes.
She felt so uncomfortable that her heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife. She said in a deep voice, "It's all my fault. It's all my fault."
“…”
"Why, why did I lose this thing?"
“…”
"I, I really shouldn't have done that."
“…”
"Your Majesty, I—"
"alright."
Zhu Feng's face didn't look good either. If something else was dropped and made Nan Yan so sad, he would just smile and comfort her, but at this moment, his mood was actually heavier than hers.
Because he understood better than her the dangers of losing the military token.
But, I couldn't bear to blame her.
After all, it was I who handed the military order to her, and she was on the verge of giving birth and could barely take care of herself, so how could she care about so many things?
He only said in a deep voice: "I will solve this matter."
“…”
"Don't think too much. It's useless."
His voice was low and his words were simple, but they were the most powerful and reassuring.
Nan Yan looked up at him, and finally, she could only nod lightly: "I know."
Zhu Feng warned again, "No matter what, don't let anyone else know. This matter is between you, me... and Li Bushang. Do you understand?"
"yes."
Zhu Feng then patted her hands.
Outside, the wind was still howling, and the swaying shadows of the trees were reflected on the windows, as if their mood at the moment could not calm down no matter what.
It seems like a storm is coming...

On the other side, in the Imperial Hospital, there was also a howling sound of wind, but the wind here was filled with a strong medicinal fragrance that was even a little pungent.
Except for Wang Baizhi, the other imperial doctors have been working non-stop for several days.
Not only do they have to cook nourishing soups for the imperial concubine, but they also have to provide ginseng soup and other items to Yonghe Palace at any time. In addition, those who were injured in the rebellion of Duke Chengguo and Concubine Hui are also waiting for treatment.
Behind the Imperial Hospital, there are several rows of rooms.
On normal days, there are almost no people here, but at this moment, there is a patient living in every room.
In the innermost row of rooms lived Ran Xiaoyu, the head maid of Yiku Palace.
She has been in a coma for two days.
After cleaning, most of the poison in the chest wound was eliminated, but some poison still entered the body through the blood vessels. This part is the most troublesome.
After much difficulty, I managed to give her another half bowl of medicine.
The medicine was very bitter, but she didn't resist even though she was unconscious. She drank it smoothly. The doctor breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, she is not a squeamish person."
After saying that, he wiped the sweat off his face, turned around and walked out.
She was left alone in the room and fell asleep peacefully.
The breath seemed very chaotic.
At this moment, the door was gently pushed open by a hand, and a pair of feet stepped in from outside, slowly walking to the bedside step by step.
The voice was so soft, as if afraid of waking up the person in the bed.
But even so, Ran Xiaoyu seemed to sense something. She frowned slightly and murmured uneasily: "Who, who is coming over."
"Hurry, hurry and save them..."
"Hurry up and save... the Imperial Concubine..."
