Tingfu said: "What can Lord Jian say? Although he is young, he is old and young. No matter what happens, he is only hidden in his heart and never shows it to his face."

“…”

"No matter how those adults look for him or block him, he smiles."

“…”

"But, if it's important, I won't reveal any words."

“…”

"The adults came down and said that Lord Jian was very thoughtful, and no one could guess what he thought, so gradually, it was difficult for everyone to find him again."

Nanyan's mood became a little complicated as she listened.

Indeed, Jian Ruocheng was a mature young man, and he was a man who could not speak out. If he was not such a person, Zhu Feng would not have promoted him to the right chief of the Secretariat.

However, I still want to know what he was thinking.

After all, Zhu Feng’s next path will be difficult, and it will be much easier to walk with one more help like him.

On the contrary

If there is a resistance like him in front of him, it will probably be several times more difficult.

With such a faint worry, Nanyan spent the night alone.

That night, Zhu Feng did not come to accompany her, but just asked Eunuch Yu to come over in the evening to send some fruits and vegetables brought from the south, so that she could rest well.

And the lights on the study room were lit all night.

It seems that when these officials come, things will follow.

The next morning, Nan Yan was sitting by the windowsill, listening to Nian Qiu and Tingfu playing in the yard. After all, this is the Yan Prince Mansion in Beiping. The place they had never been to was so fresh that they almost climbed the wall to see the scenery.

At this moment, Ran Xiaoyu walked in: "Empress, Lord Jian asks for a visit."

"Mr. Jian?"

Nan Yan was stunned for a moment.

She didn't expect that Jian Ruocheng would come to see her.

Moreover, although this place is the Yan Prince's Mansion, it is not as strict as the inner courtyard of the palace, anyone who wants to meet him still needs to pass Zhu Feng's permission.

Zhu Feng actually allowed him to come to see him?

He hurriedly said, "Please."

After a while, a man with bright and bright moon came in from outside.

Jian Ruocheng was wearing an official uniform, but it was difficult for anyone to wear a crisp official uniform with a gentle and even romantic look. When he walked in, the entire yard seemed to be lit up.

Nan Yan sat on the stool, saw him walking in, leaning down and bowing: "I pay homage to the Empress."

"Please get up quickly, Lord Jian."

Nan Yan watched him get up slowly, and said to Ran Xiaoyu again: "Sit up."

A chair was brought over, and Jian Ruocheng dusted his sleeves and sat down.

Then the two looked up and looked at each other.

Nan Yan didn't know if her appearance had changed over the bumps of these days, and the changes had changed, because the moment Jian Ruocheng saw her, his eyes flashed.

But when she saw Jian Ruocheng, she was shocked.

Jian Ruocheng, he has lost a lot of weight!

He was originally a thin and timeless man with a romantic figure and a gentleman secretly agreed to by a famous lady. However, he had only been apart for a few months, and of course he had not changed his appearance, but Nan Yan just felt that he had changed a lot.

Weakness is just a part of it.

Those eyes that were originally clear have now become much deeper than before, like a bottomless black pool.

Nan Yan looked at him, no matter how he looked, he couldn't tell at this moment. Apart from the smile on his face, he had any other emotions.

The two of them were silent for a while.

But immediately, Jian Ruocheng smiled and said, "I just arrived in Peiping this time and heard about the Queen's happy event. It's so gratifying."

Nan Yan said: "Thank you, Lord Jian."

"But I have heard that the Empress has experienced extraordinary experiences these days. I wonder if she has hurt her jade body?"

"That's not."

"That's fine."

For some reason, although Jian Ruocheng has always been a gentleman who is very cautious in speaking and doing things, this time, when he talked to him, he felt a clear alienation.

Although they have never been too close to each other in the past.

Nan Yan was silent for a while, then said softly: "Mr. Jian... It's very hard to go to Peking this time?"

Jian Ruocheng glanced at her, then smiled and shook his head.

"It's hard to eat the king's fortune and bear the king's worries."

"But now that the emperor is building Peiping, there are still many things here, I'm afraid it's much busier than when I was in Jinling."

"That's true."

"Mr. Jian must pay attention to his health."

"Thank you for your concern."

The conversation was a bit salty and uneven. Nanyan was actually trying to find something to say, but after all, there was nothing to say.

A brief silence appeared between the two people.

Ran Xiaoyu stood beside her, looked at Jian Ruocheng, and then looked at her.

At this time, Jian Ruocheng smiled again and said, "Xiaguan just talked to the empress, but he forgot the important matter. My father and sister-in-law knew that Xiaguan came to Peking this time, so she specially asked Xiaguan to bring some things to the empress."

"Oh? Old Mr. Jian and Mrs. Jiahe."

When Nan Yan mentioned the people from the Jian family, he immediately laughed.

Jian Ruocheng waved to the outside, walked over with a servant he accompanied, carrying a big bag of small bags in his hand.

Jian Ruocheng said: "I hope the Empress will not dislike you."

"How could it be? It made Mr. Jian and Mrs. Young's wife worry."

The servant came in with his things and put them on the table, but there were quite a lot of them.

Jian Ruocheng glanced at the gifts, then turned his head to look at Nan Yan.

Then, he said, "Then the official, let's say goodbye."

"Uh, so fast"

Nanyan was a little surprised.

But when I think about it, Jian Ruocheng is just a foreign minister after all, and it is already an extra mercy to let him come and visit him.

Besides, there is really nothing to talk about with him.

Jian Ruocheng stood up and saluted respectfully to her: "I hope the Empress will take care of her more."

"Thank you, sir."

Nan Yan sent him to the door and then watched the thin figure leave.

She stood there for a while.

Ran Xiaoyu came over and said softly: "Empress, what's wrong?"

“…”

Nan Yan kept looking at Jian Ruocheng's back, and after a while, he said, "It's nothing, I just feel a little bit unspeakable."

Ran Xiaoyu also turned her head and looked at Jian Ruocheng's back that had already left.

She didn't quite understand, but she immediately said, "Grandma comes and see what gifts Lord Jian has sent."

"Yeah, OK."

Nanyan walked to the table and opened the boxes. In addition to some tonics sent by Mrs. Jiahe, there were several sets of books given to her by Jian Tongguang.

I happened to be pregnant recently and can't walk around, so I'm so bored.

It is the best to read books.

Mr. Jian is really considerate!

Nanyan was extremely happy.

In the next two or three days, Zhu Feng did not come because he was busy with his own affairs, and Nan Yan couldn't let go of a book called "The Unfamiliar Lun" with her.

But on that day, while she was sitting on a bench under the eaves reading a book, she heard news from outside.

Ministers in the court jointly wrote a letter asking the emperor to stop building the Beiping City.
Chapter completed!
