Chapter 3269: Self-assertion

Old country uncle?
Hearing these three words, Zhu Feng's originally relaxed expression immediately became serious, but Nan Yan was still a little bit overwhelmed for a while, sitting cross-legged beside Zhu Feng, and said with a look of doubt: "Old Uncle? Old Uncle is..."
"Brother Queen Mother!"
After Zhu Feng finished speaking, he stood up and sat up from the bed.
Nan Yan reacted and gasped, "Old Uncle!"
Since she entered the palace, she hasn't seen Zhu Feng's elders, and those who died are naturally dead, and this old country uncle is one of the few who still lives in the world.
He was the younger brother of Empress Chen. He was once the most powerful man and right arm of the Emperor Gao when he was in the world. After Emperor Gao was enthroned, he was even an extremely human minister. He can be described as one person under 10,000 in the court, but such a prominent figure. , Such a prominent family, but let go early to become a Taoist priest, the Chen family also gradually disappeared in the court after Empress Chen passed away.
This can be regarded as a legend.
Nan Yan originally thought that this legendary old country uncle would really spend his life like idle clouds and wild cranes. There is no interaction with them. Even if the three brothers of the Chen family came to Zhu Feng's back then, they were just his fellow practitioners. When he came, he himself did not appear.
Unexpectedly, he went to the northwest.
Nan Yan couldn't believe it, "Is it really the old uncle? The old uncle really came?"
Xiao Shunzi outside the door obviously heard these words too, and she couldn't help but said softly: "Hui Niangniang, now Mrs. Chen is still drinking tea with the old country uncle, naturally there is no fake."
"what……"
"Master Chen originally wanted to report to the emperor immediately, but the old uncle only said that now the war is about to fall into a stalemate. The emperor must be working day and night over this matter and cannot bear to interrupt the emperor's rest, so he won't let him come and call."
Nan Yan opened his eyes and looked at Zhu Feng, and Zhu Feng also looked at her.
The two looked at each other and both showed a little surprised expression.
This old country uncle has just arrived, so it seems that he has been by their side, watching them do things, guessing so accurately.
Xiao Shunzi outside the door went on to say: "But the slave maid thought, the old uncle is an elder, and it's hard for the elders to wait outside, so he dared to report to the emperor and the empress."
Zhu Feng had already got out of bed and said, "Go down and get ready. I have packed up, and I will go over immediately."
"Yes."
Xiao Shunzi immediately turned and left.
Zhu Feng turned his head and saw Nan Yan sitting on the bedside in a daze, saying: "What do you want to think about later. Come and serve me first!"
"Huh? Oh!"
Nan Yan was sober now, and hurriedly bounced off the bed, ran over to serve Zhu Feng, put on clothes, and sent people hot water and salt to wash up quickly.
What Nan Yan put on Zhu Feng was a homely dress.
If it is an ordinary elder who has not seen him for many years, the emperor may consider wearing a formal dress before going to meet, but the old uncle is a monk after all. If he wears a formal dress, he will look overwhelming.
not to mention--
He is the old uncle of the country and the younger brother of Empress Chen.
Regarding his mother who died young, others did not know the existence of the Chen family, but Nan Yan knew very well that Zhu Feng must have a different emotion in his heart.
After finishing putting on, Nan Yan helped him adjust his collar again, and looked at Zhu Feng's trance expression, and said softly: "The emperor?"
"Ok?"
Zhu Feng looked up at her as if being awakened by someone, and Nan Yan said: "The emperor should have passed by."
"……Ok."
Zhu Feng took a deep breath, and when he was about to turn around, Nan Yan stopped him again: "The emperor."
"Ok?"
Zhu Feng looked back at her and saw Nan Yan cautiously said: "Should my concubine go there?"
Zhu Feng hesitated for a while before he came back to what she meant. The original heavy heart couldn't help but relax a little, and a smile appeared on his face, and said: "Think about it, the old uncle is an elder, you Should I meet?"
When Nan Yan heard this, his eyes lit up: "The concubine, follow the emperor?"
Zhu Feng ignored her, only cursed her "stupid" with his eyes, turned around and walked out, and Nan Yan hurriedly followed.
Xiao Shunzi led the way, but when she walked out of the inner courtyard gate, she turned aside.
Zhu Feng frowned slightly: "Where is this going?"
As Xiao Shunzi walked forward, he whispered: "The emperor, the old uncle is not in the front hall, Master Chen accompanied him to drink tea in the garden."
"Oh."
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.
It is not far from the garden. Zhu Fengda walked with long legs and reached the garden within two steps.
The scorching sun for several days has caused the people in Handongwei to get out of the oil. Even if they stay in the house every day, everyone’s heart is hot, but today, it is rare to have a little shady, from time to time. There was also a cool breeze, which was very refreshing.
As soon as I walked to the gate of the garden, I smelled a refreshing fragrance of vegetation.
But at this moment, a familiar figure walked out of it and almost ran into Zhu Feng.
"Ok?"
As soon as he saw him, Zhu Feng frowned immediately, and the man had already knelt down and bowed: "Weichen pays homage to the emperor, and pays homage to the concubine.
Hearing this voice, Nan Yan widened his eyes in disbelief: "He Yi?"
It was He Yi who kneeled in front of them!
This time, Zhu Feng visited the northwest and did not take him. Instead, he let him stay in the capital to assist the prince in supervising the country and at the same time in charge of the cabinet. Of course, Zhu Feng also left a sentence just like the previous times when he visited Beijing. If there is a major event that is difficult to choose, you can report it in person.
However, no matter what happened in the past, He Yi has not left his job at this time.
But in front of him, he didn't even have a report, so he came to the northwest.
Nan Yan's breathing paused.
Zhu Feng didn't seem to be too surprised. When he saw He Yi kneeling in front of him, he only narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "You are here too."
"Weichen escorted the old uncle to come."
"Then now, why do you come out without accompany Lao Guojiu in there?"
He Yi lowered his head and whispered: "Although the old uncle did not let the Weichen wait to report to the emperor, but the Weichen thought, the old uncle is the elder after all, if the emperor keeps the elders waiting and spreading it out, it will inevitably lose the population ."
"..."
"So, Weichen made his own proposal and planned to report to the emperor."
Zhu Feng smiled, and said, "What a self-assertion."
He Yi's head was buried a little lower: "Please the emperor to confess the crime."
Zhu Feng said: "You have a lot of things to do on your own. If your head is chopped off, you can't count this one."
