Golden Age Of Phoenix: Tyrant's First Class Virtuous Imperial Concubine Chapter 116 - This Triumph, He Gave Blood To Exchange

Nan Yan felt that if she were to walk out of the Wu Ying Palace, Jian Ruocheng would probably dig into it and ask about what had happened. However, under those circ.u.mstances, she could only reply.

“Yes.”

Then, she retreated out of the room.

After she walked a few steps away, Jian Ruocheng stopped her and asked.

“Female Offer Si, what happened to you?”

Nan Yan knew that she could not conceal the matter regarding what had happened in the Imperial Garden that day, so she softly said.

“I blame myself for making decisions on my own that day. If I had not refuted Jing w.a.n.g's honor, maybe the Yong Province would not be destroyed.”

Before her words were finished, He Yi was already laughing slightly.

“Silly girl! This matter has nothing to do with you."

They both turned to look at him.

He calmly explained to them.

"It is impossible for His Majesty to grant the Yan Province to Jing w.a.n.g."

“Why?”

“You may remember that His Majesty was originally called Yan w.a.n.g. He was previously stationed in the northern territory of the Yan Province, while Jing w.a.n.g's garrison was in the Southern Xinjiang. These were the original arrangements of Emperor Gao.”

"Emperor Gao was wise and powerful and thus made such a move that held a deeper meaning. Although the southern Country of Yue was troublesome, yet they were not a direct threat to the Big Yan Empire. Consequently, it was not so easy for the army to invade the Yue Country due to the complicated geographical relief. Also, in the southern Xinjiang, as long as the army could strongly defend against these invaders then it would suffice.”

"But, the northern territory of the Yan Province directly faces the army of the country. The people guarding the place must not only be able to defend, but must also be able to attack, and also cannot act rashly.”

"His Majesty had been stationed in the north for more than ten years and knew the threat that it represented if left unguarded. Hence, he cannot order our country's main force of cavalry to go south."

"For this triumph, he paid with his own blood in exchange. No one else can do it."

"The Yan Province must never be given to anyone else.”

After listening to He Yi, Nan Yan stayed silent for a moment. However, beside her, Jian Ruocheng uttered.

“If the ability of the person is not significant enough to take care of the situation, then this one is afraid that the damage caused would be unimaginable.”

He Yi agreed and replied,

“That is exactly what I mean.”

As he spoke, they all shook their heads, and both of them continued to walk forwards.

Nan Yan, who had been standing still for a long time, silently followed them.

Soon, the evening came, and it was time for them to go back to the Wu Ying Palace.

As soon as she opened the door, as usual, a cold light flashed before her. But this time, she was no longer frightened by it and quietly closed the door.

Zhu Feng did not look at her either. After he finished wiping the sword, he sheathed it into the scabbard and threw it to her.

“Hang it up.”

Nan Yan took the sword, only to find that the sword was so heavy that it caused her to stagger back two steps. Before, she saw Zhu Feng wielding it at will with only one hand, therefore she figured that the sword was not heavy.

In the end, the Invincible Yan w.a.n.g from Big Yan Dynasty in the northern border during that time was still present.

She hung the sword back on the pillar and brought hot water to wash Zhu Feng. After everything was carried out, Zhu Feng sat down beside the bed. She was about to blow out the candle on the table when Zhu Feng suddenly stopped her.

“Not yet.”

Nan Yan glanced back at him.

He continued.

"I want to think about some matters for a while more.”

"Yes."

Hearing this, Nan Yan put down the lamp.

However, this time she did not know what to do. Before when the night fell, she only had to blow out the candles and Zhu Feng would sleep as she sat beside his bed to guard him. But, since this time was not the usual routine, she did not know what she should do.

“Come.”

Suddenly, she heard Zhu Feng's voice again, catching her off-guard though she obviously was not as afraid of him as before. She looked up and saw Zhu Feng staring at her.

She could not help but remember the last time Zhu Feng called her, and she…
