Chapter 3173 was caught by the two of them
"so,"
Zhu Feng said coldly, "He must be hiding something."
Nan Yan felt her mind was in a tangle. After thinking for a long time, she couldn't figure anything out. She asked doubtfully, "It has come to this point. What else can he hide?"
"yes……"
Zhu Feng spoke slowly in a strange tone, "He even admitted that he was Emperor Gao's man, that he was here to monitor my whereabouts, and that he was colluding with Zhu Chengjin. What else could he not admit, and that I must not know?"
Hearing this, Nan Yan suddenly felt a little uneasy.
She swallowed and whispered, "Your Majesty, are you going to torture him?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her, smiled faintly, and said, "If torture could really force two words out of him, I would have crushed every bone in his body long ago."
“…”
"He was previously imprisoned in the Dali Temple. He revealed the truth to me because of Ye Zheng's information. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have said a single word."
“…”
"He Yi is a man who cannot be subdued by torture."
Nan Yan nodded immediately.
To be honest, as long as He Yi was not sincerely against Zhu Feng, and was not really colluding with foreign enemies to undermine the court and destroy the stability of the country, she did not want this person to be harmed in her heart.
Zhu Feng let out a deep breath and said, "We can only take this matter slowly."
“…”
"We've finally settled down, and I don't want to cause any more trouble."
Nan Yan was even more relieved.
He then looked at Zhu Feng and whispered, "Can the Emperor really endure this?"
You know, with his past temper, even if he didn't crush all of He Yi's bones, at least He Yi would have to lose half his life to quench his anger.
Zhu Feng glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and said with a half-smile, "Do you think I'm still the same as those young brats?"
“…”
"In this world, many things cannot be forced, even if I am the emperor."
“…”
"Having lived to this age, I have seen things too clearly."
He clearly said this with relief, but Nan Yan could sense the helplessness deep in his bones. Just imagine that he was the emperor, rich as a behemoth, yet he couldn't even figure out where he came from, and had never enjoyed family happiness for half his life. Under such helplessness, a person would either go crazy or force himself to endure it.
Nan Yan said softly, "I will accompany the emperor."
Zhu Feng glanced at her and smiled.
He reached out and took Nan Yan's hand into his own, squeezing it slightly, and said, "Of course you have to come with me."
“…”
"People around me will come and go eventually, but you, you can't leave."
Nan Yan said seriously, "Of course I won't leave."
“…”
"Not only my concubine, but also my two children are in Peking. We are a family, so we are all doing well."
Zhu Feng smiled and nodded.
Speaking of the two children, Nan Yan continued, "Well, now that the Emperor has finally arrived, He Yi, shouldn't we prepare to set off?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her but didn't respond immediately.
Nan Yan frowned again.
She had urged Zhu Feng to return to Beijing as soon as possible before, but Zhu Feng had stayed in Jinling City. Now she knew that he was waiting for He Yi, waiting for He Yi to bring back news. But now, the news has been confirmed and He Yi has returned, why does he still have no intention of setting off to return to Beijing?
Nan Yan asked doubtfully, "What else does the Emperor want to do? Aren't all the current matters dealt with?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her: "Are you sure?"
Nan Yan asked, "What do you mean?"
Zhu Feng let out a deep breath and said, "Since you've returned to the Jinling Imperial Palace this time, is there anyone you haven't met yet?"
When this was mentioned, Nan Yan's expression changed.
After a long silence, she finally said, "I'm waiting for her to come find me."
The person she was talking about was none other than Ran Xiaoyu.
After returning to the Jinling Palace, everyone around her went to the Yikun Palace to serve her, except Ran Xiaoyu, who never showed up. Of course, Nan Yan was not completely unconcerned about her, and she even asked Ruoshui to ask about her. Ran Xiaoyu had been living in a small house in the Ye Ting area and rarely came out on weekdays. If Nan Yan hadn't thought of her, almost everyone would have forgotten her.
Of course Nan Yan knew that Ran Xiaoyu still had a hurdle in her heart.
Although she had made a choice, that choice was made for Zhu Feng.
And how she would face Nan Yan, or rather, how Nan Yan would face her, obviously, she had not yet thought clearly.
So, Nan Yan has been waiting, waiting for her to come find her.
Unexpectedly, although many things about Ran Xiaoyu had changed, one thing remained the same, which was her stubborn temper. If it were someone else, they would have run to the imperial concubine and kowtowed to her for forgiveness, but she remained motionless.
Zhu Feng seemed to sneer, but there was also some contempt in his sneer.
Said: "You, just spoiled her too much."
Nan Yan glared at him and asked, "Has the emperor met with Ye Zheng these days?"
“…”
In one sentence, Zhu Feng was blocked again.
He stared at Nan Yan for a long time, but in the end he had nothing to say and sighed.
Of course not.
Just like Nan Yan and Ran Xiaoyu, Zhu Feng never went to look for Ye Zheng, and Ye Zheng stayed in his old place and never appeared in front of him again. If he hadn't been thinking about him all the time and no one around him mentioned him, it would have been as if he had disappeared again.
After a long silence, Zhu Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He said, "We are the masters after all, but we were controlled by them."
Nan Yan also smiled bitterly.
If this were to get out, people would definitely accuse her of being a wicked slave bullying her master. However, perhaps because Ran Xiaoyu had always been the stronger one between the two, she did not feel offended. As for Zhu Feng, he had always doted on Ye Zheng. Ye Zheng was even the only outsider who could enter and leave the harem, which showed how important and special Ye Zheng was in his heart.
Sometimes, if you think about it carefully, being controlled by someone may not be a bad thing.
A person must always have a soft spot in his heart, and there must always be one or two people who can make his heart soft, so that life does not seem to be wasted.
Nan Yan asked, "Then, when does the emperor plan to look for Ye Zheng?"
Zhu Feng asked, "When do you plan to look for Ran Xiaoyu?"
Nan Yan hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively in a low voice, "Wait, after we return to Beiping?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her.
After another moment of silence, he said, "I think you should talk to her in the next two days."
Nan Yan asked, "Why?"
