Chapter 3442: Why, is this under the jurisdiction of Lord Li?
Upon hearing her words, Li Bushang paused for a moment before stopping in front of Nan Yan. He bowed solemnly to Nan Yan and said, "Your humble servant, I pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine."
Nan Yan asked, "Master Li, why are you here?"
Li Bushang said, "News came from the provincial capital that the Empress is coming here in person. I was worried about any accidents along the way, so I brought people here to pick her up."
Nan Yan said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Li Bushang said, "I dare not."
He kept his head down when he said these words, but one could feel that his whole attention was only on Nan Yan.
Not even a sideways glance.
Nan Yan smiled again and said, "I brought your wife here with me, but there was an accident on the way and the carriage broke down, which almost scared her."
Having said that, Li Bushang looked up and glanced at Xie Jiaojiao.
When the two people looked at each other, even though the weather was so warm, there was almost no warmth in their eyes.
Even Li Bushang's eyes were as cold as ice.
He said, "Are you okay?"
Xie Jiaojiao smiled and said, "It's okay."
"I'm glad you're okay."
After Li Bushang finished speaking, he turned to Nan Yan and said, "I just saw that the carriage is almost repaired. Your Majesty, please go over first."
Nan Yan said, "Alright."
After saying that, he walked forward with a smile, leaving Li Bushang and Xie Jiaojiao behind.
But Li Bushang immediately quickened his pace and followed her. As he walked, he looked around and said, "Where did your Majesty go just now?"
Hearing this, Nan Yan turned around and glanced at him with a half-smile, and said, "Why, is this under the jurisdiction of Lord Li?"
Although this sounded like a joke, everyone around knew that this was the last bit of courtesy the imperial concubine showed. After all, no matter how powerful the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard was outside, he should not ask about the imperial concubine's whereabouts. If Li Bushang's answer was wrong in the slightest, the imperial concubine would be angry.
Sure enough, Li Bushang also hesitated for a moment.
His pace also slowed down noticeably before he continued to follow Nan Yan, lowering his head and saying, "I dare not."
“…”
"However, this place is in a special location. Chen Bi Ri was assassinated not far away. It is definitely not peaceful. Therefore, I am worried about the safety of Your Majesty."
Nan Yan nodded and said, "I've also heard from your wife that across the street is the land that Chen Biri asked the King of Yue to allocate. This is supposed to be his territory. He was assassinated in this place, so it seems the person who did it is not simple."
Li Bushang said, "That is why I dare to ask this question."
Nan Yan looked back at him again before saying, "I just went to take a look ahead with your wife. We didn't go too far."
Li Bushang asked, "Was it my wife who took the lady there?"
Nan Yan said, "I want to see it too."
Li Bushang lowered his head and stopped talking.
He walked slowly behind Nan Yan, and Xie Jiaojiao followed behind him, and could only look at his back. In the sunlight, Xie Jiaojiao's cold eyes revealed an unspeakable desolation, but she said nothing, just lowered her head and walked silently.
When we returned to the roadside, the carriage had been repaired and the driver had put the horses back on.
So, Nan Yan still took Xie Jiaojiao on the carriage, and Li Bushang led everyone to follow around the carriage, and the group continued to move forward.
After walking for a while, they finally arrived at the military camp.
Nan Yan had some impressions of other places in Yongzhou City, but none of them were deep. Only this place, as soon as she got off the carriage and saw the tall gate in front of her, the almost dusty memories of more than ten years ago suddenly seemed to be washed away by the ashes of time, and scenes of the past emerged before her eyes one by one.
It was in this place that Zhu Feng captured Prince Jing Zhuo and also recovered Fu Yu Wei and Taining Wei, two of the three guards of Doyan.
It was in this place that she was kidnapped by Tong Jie's men. She thought she was in a desperate situation, but unexpectedly, Zhu Feng broke into the Yue State camp alone and rescued her.
How could I forget these memories?
Even the feeling of her heartbeat at that time returned to her at this moment.
Nan Yan put her hand on her chest, and her face felt hot unconsciously.
At this time, a cold voice said: "My Lady, we're here."
Nan Yan looked back and saw that Li Bu Shang was still following her. This sentence seemed to bring Nan Yan out of her past memories. She frowned slightly but didn't say anything. The military camp had already received the news and someone came out to support them immediately. Nan Yan took Li Bu Shang, Xie Jiaojiao, and a group of people in.
Inside the big tent, Zhu Feng was sitting at a low table.
He hadn't been to a place like this for a long time. Although there had been peace for a long time, the military blood in his body had not cooled down. Instead, when he came to this place, it awakened his past memories.
On the table was a map of the border, which was specially drawn by the military generals for His Majesty the Emperor's inspection. Zhu Feng only looked at it for a while and drew a few lines on it with a pen. The people around him didn't know why and didn't dare to ask.
At this time, someone came to announce: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine has arrived."
As soon as he heard the voice, he immediately looked up.
The sun was at its highest point, and the light in the big tent was a little dim, but the more so, the more dazzling the sunlight seemed once the tent was opened. When Nan Yan walked in from the sunlight, his vision became a little dazed.
At this moment, he seemed to see Nan Yan from more than ten years ago.
Although her clothes were not as gorgeous as they are now, and her expression was not as calm as it is now, but in his memory, Nan Yan was still as dazzling as before.
He couldn't help but smile a little.
Nan Yan walked in excitedly and immediately bowed to him, saying, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
Zhu Feng raised his hand, and everyone around him retreated. He sat sideways, one hand on his knee, and said with a smile, "I knew you would come."
Nan Yan said, "Your Majesty should wait for me to come over."
Zhu Feng laughed and said, "You are too lazy. The military camp doesn't wait for those who sleep in."
Nan Yan glared at him.
After glaring, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "The Emperor even sent the Jinyiwei to pick me up. I am really flattered."
"Jinyiwei?"
Zhu Feng frowned slightly: "I didn't ask the Jinyiwei to pick you up. You came from that place, and I left someone in the state capital. Why would I send someone to pick you up? Isn't that redundant?"
Nan Yan was also stunned: "Huh?"
Zhu Feng did not order the Jinyiwei to pick him up, so—
At this moment, Zhu Feng seemed to have come back to his senses, and his face immediately darkened: "Is it Li Bu Shang?"
“…”
Nan Yan suddenly didn't dare to say anything.
