Since Zhu Feng has said that he will set off for Beijing in a few days, things must be arranged quickly.

Everyone inside and outside the palace became busy.

After Zhu Chengjin captured Jinling City, he killed a large number of officials who stayed here. Zhu Feng comforted them one by one, and then promoted a group of people in a short time. Naturally, they were all young people. Although these people were not experienced, they were motivated to do things and did not have so many concerns or involvements. Instead, they were more convenient than before.

At the moment, the only thing to worry about seems to be really one thing.

It can also be said that it is two people.

Two people who control the emperor and the imperial concubine.

That evening, the matter of the Imperial Veteran returning to Beijing was arranged and he would set off in two days. Zhu Feng knew that he could not delay any longer, so he stayed in the Imperial Study room and asked someone to call Ye Zheng over.

When Ye Zheng slowly walked to the door, the man from the imperial kitchen came out and bowed to him: "Mr. Ye."

Ye Zheng nodded, knowing that Zhu Feng was having a meal inside, hesitated and was about to retreat, and he would come back later.

At this time, Zhu Feng's voice came from the house—

"Come in."

Ye Zheng thought about it, took a deep breath and walked in. Sure enough, he saw a small table in the inner room with a few plates of side dishes and two sets of bowls and chopsticks. Zhu Feng sat opposite him and waved to him: "Come here."

Ye Zheng walked over slowly and raised his hand to salute him.

Zhu Feng said: "Sit down."

Ye Zheng said: "I don't dare."

Zhu Feng frowned slightly.

You should know that in the past days, Ye Zheng had to sit down in front of him, and there were more unrestrained things, but now he said this on purpose.

After looking at him for a while, he was reluctant to let it go and said in a deep voice: "Didn't you often sit with me for a meal?"

Ye Zheng said: "That's the past."

Zhu Feng said: "The same is true now."

Ye Zheng said: "It's different now."

Zhu Feng frowned again, his tone was heavier than before, and said, "Where is the difference? Is it the things different? Or is it the people different?"

“…”

"If people are different, who is different?"

“…”

"I have not changed from before, have you changed?"

Ye Zheng was silent for a while and said, "I haven't changed either."

Zhu Feng said: "Then why do you say that the present is different from the past?"

Ye Zheng finally smiled bitterly, looked at his eyes, and said seriously: "Why should the emperor do this? The matter is already in front of him. Does the emperor think that I can treat myself as if I don't have that brother, or that my brother has not died because of the emperor?"

After all, he said this.

After so many days, these words have always been pressing on the hearts of the two of them. Zhu Feng knew what the knot in his heart was, but he refused to say it, and he also hoped to hear him say it himself.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhu Feng immediately stood up, walked up to him and said, "I have never thought so before."

“…”

"For so many years, Ye Quan's death has been under my heart. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have gone to the military camp to look for you. Even if I knew that those people did those things and were looking for you, I would only hand you over to someone else's hands and give you to a reliable family for adoption, and would not leave you by my side."

Hearing this, Ye Zheng frowned.
