Chapter 3591 From thrifty to luxury, it is difficult to change from luxury to thrift

Nan Yan looked at him and said in confusion: "What are the troubles about the emperor?"

“…”

Zhu Feng did not answer her, but his brows frowned a little tighter. Looking at Zhu Feng's appearance, Nan Yan did not ask any questions. She just sat quietly for a while and then put down the small bowl and spoon in her hand, walked over to the edge of the bed, looked at Zhu Feng's eyes and said, "I understand what the emperor means."

Zhu Feng looked up at her and said with a smile: "What do you understand again?"

Nan Yan said: "The emperor did not hold a birthday in the past, and this birthday was not the birthday of the 10th. But the emperor let go when he heard that the Western countries in Nanyang were going to send special envoys to congratulate him. Therefore, in fact, the emperor's purpose is not birthday, but to accept their congratulations."

“…”

Zhu Feng didn't say anything, but his eyes flashed.

Nan Yan continued: "But, since the envoys of all countries are coming to congratulate, the scene must not be shabby. The emperor is stingy, so he has been hesitating, right?"

Zhu Feng reached out and twisted her mouth hard: "Do you want me to tear your mouth?"

Nan Yan smiled and said, "The emperor said, "I guessed right?"

“…”

Zhu Feng was silent for a while before sighing, and then said, "You, you can't hide anything from you."

Nan Yan smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I think this matter is absolutely impossible to have the best of both worlds. The emperor must decide one."

Zhu Feng said: "Aren't I worried?"

“…”

"In the past few years, in order to feed Yueguo, I did spend a lot of money on buying raw silk. Now the trade is normal, and it has only been a few months. I still have to fill the deficit of transporting grain in Sichuan and Shaanxi. Although I have made some money with the business in the Western Regions, it is..."

The more he said, his brows became tighter and tighter.

If you are not in charge of the family, you don’t know that the firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive. Outsiders only look at the honor of the emperor and concubines, but they don’t know that there are great difficulties. If they want to worry, it will be the greatest difficulty in the world.

Nan Yan whispered: "I understand the difficulties of the emperor."

Zhu Feng continued: "There is another one--"

After saying a while, Nan Yan paused again. Seeing that he looked embarrassed, it seemed that he could not speak up the following words. Nan Yan thought about it, a smile appeared on his face, and said softly: "Are you worried that the court officials would say you are so happy?"

When Zhu Feng heard the four words "What a great joy", his face suddenly froze.

He looked at Nanyan and said, "Do you think so too?"

Nan Yan tilted his head and thought for a while, then said, "I think it's not impossible."

“…”

"The four barbarians come to pay tribute and all nations come to congratulate you. This is a blessing that the diligent emperor cannot even think of. Now that the emperor has such an opportunity, I feel that I should not refuse it casually."

Zhu Feng was silent for a moment before saying, "Do you think I don't want to?"

However, the problem of money and the hat of "a great honor" made him hesitate before this question.

Nan Yan smiled and said, "I shouldn't have talked too much about such a big thing. I only talk about my own thoughts, that is, the emperor has done such a big thing but has not held up such a big flag. Will God feel that the emperor cannot bear such a blessing? Then what should I do if he takes back this blessing?"

After a few words, Zhu Feng, who was already worried, laughed.

However, she understood what she meant very well.

What should be done must be done.

The sun and the moon shine, and the world is peaceful, which is worthy of publicity. Only when the Great Yan Dynasty spreads its reputation and culture abroad can it be called the style of a great power.

He nodded and said, "Okay, then I will continue to pass the imperial edict tomorrow."

After saying that, he thought about it and turned to Nanyan, saying, "Since you want to do this, you need to have a plan on money, and you need to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. The matter of increasing revenue naturally has nothing to do with you, but this cost-effectiveness..."

Nan Yan immediately understood and said, "Don't worry, the concubine in the harem will find a way."

Zhu Feng laughed and said, "Okay, you can do the offending things. I will make up for you when I look back."

Nanyan snorted.

The two of them talked until it was too late, and they were busy all the time. They didn't have a good rest when they came back today. They were already tired. Nanyan yawned and asked someone to take away the dishes in the house. Then they went to bed with Zhu Feng.

During this sleep, I was drowsy and slept until the next day.

Nan Yan opened his eyes in a daze and saw the morning light coming through the window. She yawned and subconsciously turned to look at Zhu Feng next to her. She originally thought he should be still sleeping, but she didn't expect that Zhu Feng was sitting on the head of the bed, with a solemn expression on her face as if she was thinking about something.

Nan Yan frowned in confusion: "Master?"

Zhu Feng heard the sound and looked down at her: "You are awake."

When Nan Yan heard his voice, he felt as if he was burning with fire. He felt something was wrong. He hurriedly supported himself and looked at it. He found that Zhu Feng's eyes were dark and bloodshot, which was obviously the result of not sleeping all night. She immediately said, "Did the emperor not sleep all night?"

“…”

Zhu Feng glanced at her, then remained silent for a moment before saying, "I can't sleep."

Nan Yan suddenly became a little angry and sat beside him and said, "What's wrong with the emperor? I haven't had a good rest on the road these few months. I finally returned to Beijing. It's time to have a good rest. How can I stay up late again?"

Zhu Feng said impatiently: "Didn't I say it, I can't sleep."

“…”

"Can I not want to sleep if I can sleep?"

“…”

Nan Yan looked at him for a while and saw that he looked worried, and he didn't seem to be able to fall asleep properly. She thought about it and went out of bed to pour him a cup of tea. After a night of night, the tea had already cooled down, but Zhu Feng sat at the head of the bed all night, and the internal fire was strong. He took it and drank it all, and he felt a little more comfortable.

Nanyan took the empty cup and sat down beside the bed, whispering: "What are the troubles about the emperor? Or is it because of the birthday?"

Zhu Feng glanced at her.

There is no denial, that's it.

Nan Yan didn't understand even more and frowned and said, "Didn't I discuss with the emperor yesterday? The emperor also agreed. Why are you still worried about this?"

“…”

"Is the emperor still worried about money?"

“…”

"I dare not say anything about other concubines, but in the harem, I can save some money for the emperor. It really doesn't work. I have saved some ladies over the years, and it's also--"

Zhu Feng said angrily: "Who told you about this? No matter how poor you are, you are not as poor as you want the imperial concubine to sell things. You should give up this idea for me!"

Nan Yan said: "What are you worried about if the emperor doesn't sleep all night?"

“…”

Zhu Feng was silent for a long time before sighing and said, "I have been thinking about a word this night."

"What's the matter?"
