Chapter 3180 vicissitudes of life
After a long time, she said, "What will the emperor plan to make arrangements?"
Zhu Feng said: "I started to prepare a long-distance fleet on Zhoushan a few years ago, hoping to develop a route on the sea. Under the ban on Emperor Gao, the Central Plains had not set foot on the foreign land for decades."
Nanyan opened his eyes wide: "The emperor wants to open a road to the West as if he sent someone to the Western Regions?"
Zhu Feng nodded.
"I have been preparing for so many years and have not taken action. First, there are still other problems in the court, so I can't separate myself from this; second, I have not selected people who are really useful."
“…”
"After all, going to the West is not something that can happen overnight. If an ordinary person is afraid of encountering some hardship, he will give up."
“…”
"Since he said he wanted to go out to sea to find Zhu Chengjin, let him go."
“…”
"It's good to open a road."
After saying this, he sighed deeply.
Nan Yan looked at him, which was written on his face and engraved in his heart.
She whispered: "Your Majesty, can you bear it?"
Zhu Feng smiled bitterly: "What can I do if I can't bear it?"
“…”
"I have said long ago that I will take everything lightly when I live to this age. Even if I am the lord of the nineteenth century and rich in the world, I will always have sand that I can't keep in my hands."
As he said that, he subconsciously clenched his fists.
Looking at his hand - Nan Yan still remembers that Zhu Feng's hand was very powerful in the past. One of the boss's fists felt like he could kill a tiger with one punch; but now, his fists are also very large and should be very powerful, but his finger bones are protruding and blue veins are bulging, which always gives people a feeling of being extra thin and even a little fragile.
She felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but hold Zhu Feng's hand and gently stroke the back of his hand, as if she was using this to soothe his sadness.
Feeling Nanyan caressing little by little, Zhu Feng smiled faintly.
He said: "I have long been indifferent."
Nan Yan held his hand and after a long time he whispered: "No matter what, I'm still here."
Zhu Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Luckily, you are still here."
The two of them snuggled quietly for a while, and the sky outside gradually darkened. Nan Yan remembered something and asked, "They are leaving, when will they leave?"
Zhu Feng said: "When going to sea, the things and things to prepare are more cumbersome than going to other places. Although I have sent an order to the officials in Jinling to gather people here, just like Gu Yiyou and Tong Sinian go to the Western Regions, it is best to be able to convene a caravan and go on the road together."
“…”
"I will also pass my handwriting to Zhoushan to prepare the fleet there until they are ready in Jinling."
“…”
"After two months later, they are ready and can set off from Jinling to Zhoushan."
"Two months later?"
Nan Yan said: "But we will set off in two days and return to Beijing."
Zhu Feng looked down at her and said, "So, I and you can't send them."
“…”
“Okay.”
“…”
"It's them who want to leave, not we want to leave, we should also let them see us off. Don't just leave the sadness and sadness to me and you, so we should not suffer so much grievance in vain."
Hearing this, Nan Yan couldn't help laughing, and reached out and gently pounded his chest.
"The emperor's words are pretentious, who can give the emperor a grievance?"
Zhu Feng was beaten by her and only smiled.
In this way, two days later, the emperor's imperial guards who returned to Beijing had already been prepared, so naturally he still walked along the water as before.
Early that morning, colorful flags were already flying by the river.
Nanyan followed Zhu Fengtian and set off from the Jinling Palace before dawn. When he arrived at the riverside, the sky was just dawn. In addition to the flying colorful flags, what he saw, the vast river surface had not yet dissipated, and it was spread like layers of gauze. He could not see the other side, nor could he see the way.
Nanyan stood on the dock, and looked at this scene and subconsciously frowned.
She knew that this was just on the river.
If it was on the sea, it would be even more vast. She once went out of the sea because of King Ning and encountered the trouble of Shanghai. The fear brought by the deep sea is still dreaming from time to time. Every time she scared her to sweat all over and wake up with a trembling feeling.
But, it was just not far from the coast.
What would it feel like if you went deep into the ocean?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but turn around. Sure enough, she saw Ye Zheng and Ran Xiaoyu following the emperor. The two jumped off the horse's back. Ye Zheng's face was also very pale, not even bloody, and slowly walked to Zhu Feng.
The two of them didn't know what else to say.
Nan Yan's eyes kept chasing Ran Xiaoyu, watching her follow Ye Zheng, standing for a while, and finally, she could feel the imperial concubine's eyes and couldn't help but look up.
Nan Yan looked at her quietly.
The two seemed to confront each other, but this time, Ran Xiaoyu bowed her head first, and she slowly walked to Nanyan: "Empress, have a good journey."
Nan Yan said: "What should I say to you?"
Ran Xiaoyu lowered her head and said softly: "If I have the chance, I will come back to visit the Empress."
Nan Yan smiled bitterly and said, "This time you followed Ye Zheng south, it took two years. When I saw you again, it seemed that the world had turned over; but once you went out of the ocean, you would not be able to come back in one or two years. Maybe when you come back, you will have a change of world and you will never know what it will be like."
Ran Xiaoyu whispered: "Miss, don't say that."
“…”
"Although everything changes, everything will change, but I know that some people and things will never change after a long time."
Speaking of this, she smiled again and said, "In fact, it's good that I can leave at this time. In the past, there were always knots between the Empress and the Emperor that could not be untied, and there was always something wrong in the harem. I followed the Empress, and I could not get close to the Empress. Now, the Empress and the Emperor have given up all the past and have no grudges. The concubines in the harem dare not make rash things in front of the Empress. I have no use for me, but I went out to take a look and maybe I could use it."
“…”
"Although Ruoshui is young, she is smart and sensible. She is more suitable for following the Empress than a servant."
“…”
"As long as the Empress and the Emperor live their lives wholeheartedly, I believe that everything will be fine."
Nan Yan looked at her, shook her head and chuckled: "Are these words Ye Zheng taught you?"
“…”
"He's going to poach people."
Ran Xiaoyu also smiled.
