“Why do you care?”

He Yi laughed: “If a person does not sleep well, the spirit will naturally be lacking in vitality. If  the spirit is not strong, how can things go smoothly?”

Zhu Feng glittered a little upon hearing that.

Indeed, these two nights he did not sleep well.

The first night that Xia something accompanied him, inexplicably it was said that he pulled her into bed. Last night, he let Ye Zheng guarded him and of course, he did not make any incident. But for the nightmare that had entangled him for many years, it had not improved even a bit.

Moreover, after entering the Imperial City, the nightmare appeared more frequently than before.

He Yi looked at the dark circle under his eyes, and said softly: “w.a.n.gye is now tired under all circ.u.mstances, nevertheless His Highness should rest well.”

“……”

Zhu Feng was silent, his eyes flashed for a second after looking at He Yi.

He did not tell He Yi that as long as he kept Si Nan Yan beside him on night duty, those nightmares that had troubled him for years would be different. But looking at He Yi and the way he spoke, it seemed that he tried to pry something.

But this feeling was awfully no good.

He was not afraid to be seen by He Yi. But he did not like the feeling of someone holding his weak spot, as if no one could do it besides her.

In particular when she was just a lowly slave.

With this thought, his face became more serious: “This Prince knows.”

He Yi looked at him, but after all, he did not say anything and quietly retreated.

And this night, just as expected he did not sleep well.

On the morning of the third day, Zhu Feng’s face was as gloomy as the weather outside… The sky has not rise yet. But, in his prediction, it would be a gloomy and dreary atmosphere today. That oppressive air put everyone hearts under pressure, unable to breathe easily.

Ye Zheng packed up everything early as He Yi came. He looked at Zhu Feng’s dark face. After a moment of silence, he finally said: “w.a.n.gye, the weather should not be very good today. Do not ride on the horse, even so go by carriage.”

“Alright.”

“Since you are in a carriage, you might as well bring another person.”

Zhu Feng looked at him.

He Yi said: “w.a.n.gye did not let Si Nan Yan stay around to do an errand, she has also rested for several days. w.a.n.gye cannot let her rest indefinitely right?”

“……”

Zhu Feng was silent for a moment and finally said: “Ye Zheng, go and call her.”

A few moments later, Ye Zheng hurriedly came back to the Nangong gate with Si Nan Yan. There was already a carriage waiting.

When Nan Yan stood outside the carriage, she hesitated: “Ye Zheng, where on earth are we going to go ?”

Ye Zheng said: “Do not ask so much. Get on the carriage.”

Nan Yan was helpless, she could only let him support her. She stepped on the ladder, lifted the curtain and got into the carriage.

But as soon as she got into the carriage, she was stunned.

Zhu Feng was sitting in the carriage and looked at her coldly.

As soon as Ye Zheng entered the Lateral Courts, he hurriedly pulled her out and said that there was something urgent. Then he took her to the carriage, but he didn’t say, from beginning to end, that Yan w.a.n.g was sitting inside the carriage.

Meanwhile, two people’s eyes were staring each other. Nan Yan froze  up there for a long time.

Two days ago, she was able to rest while treating her illness at the Lateral Court. Originally it was a very easy thing to do. But every moment of those two days was kind of a torment itself for her.

Her heart felt like it was surrounded by tens of thousands needles. She was obviously not in pain, but she was unable to stay calm.

At that moment, as soon as she saw Zhu Feng, her mind remembered  the previous scene. Especially when he said those cold words, ‘There are many women who have wanted to climb up to this Prince’s bed’ but the next day Xia Yunting served him on his bed.

At the thought of this scene, Nan Yan felt a pang in her chest. She immediately lowered her head and took a deep breath, then she calmly said: “Greeting His Highness Yan w.a.n.g.”
