The room is very clean and decorated very simply, but it shows the taste of the owner and looks very elegant. Probably someone came to clean it before coming back, no matter whether it was on the table or the corner, it was spotless.

It is very comfortable for a person who is struggling to rest here.

But when he heard that it was his room, Nan Yan's brows wrinkled immediately.

"what?!"

He brought himself to his room, what did he want to do?

And this place is so remote, there is almost no one around.

Nan Yan took a step back subconsciously.

But Jian Ruocheng took another step forward.

"you--"

But Jian Ruocheng walked over, made the bed, and then turned to her and whispered: "The mattress and quilt are all new. Don't mind, I'll just leave it all night."

"..."

Nan Yan was taken aback again: "You--"

"Since they didn't prepare a room for the empress, I will naturally give up my room."

"..."

"I also hope that the empress will not dislike it."

Therefore, he let himself sleep in his bed.

Nan Yan asked, "What about you?"

Jian Ruocheng didn't speak, but walked over and lit the candlestick beside the bed to make the room brighter, and then lit a candle and walked outside the door with it.

Nan Yan stepped forward: "Where are you going?"

Although it is impossible for me to be in the same room with him late at night, I felt a little uneasy in my heart when I saw him and left like this.

Go to see Jian Ruocheng turn around, smile and say to her: "Don't worry, my mother is right here."

"what?"

Before Nan Yan could react, he saw him leaning against the door and slowly sitting down with his back to the room.

Then he said: "The lady can hit the door by herself."

"..."

"The next step is at the door. If your mother has any instructions, just say it."

"..."

He turned out to stay at the door all night, guarding the door for himself.

This--

If it was changed to another person, even the **** or guard in the palace, Nan Yan would accept it.

But he is Jian Ruocheng.

Nan Yan frowned, took a step forward, and said softly: "You--"

"Manny, let's close the door."

He turned his back to her and said calmly: "If you have anything, it doesn't matter if we talk through the door."

"..."

Nan Yan was silent for a while, walked forward, and gently closed the door behind him.

Facing the dark night outside, Jian Ruocheng looked at the faint candlelight in his hand and sighed, leaning his back against the door.

Nan Yan did not leave.

She was still holding the door with one hand, as if she could feel the body temperature of the person from the cold door.

After a while, Jian Ruocheng's voice came from outside: "Have you not rested yet?"

"..."

It turned out that he had been listening to the movement in the room, knowing that he was still standing at the door and did not go to the bed to rest.

Nan Yan's hand dropped, walked to the bed and sat down, thought for a while, then lay down.

But can't sleep.

Jian Ruocheng's voice said lowly in the night: "You take a good rest, don't think about anything else."

"How can I not think about it?"

Nan Yan sat on the bedside, watching the candlelight reflected in the front window, it was the candlelight in Jian Ruocheng's hand outside that was swaying. She said softly, "What did King Ning want to do by doing this? Humiliated me?"

"..."

"Now that I am in his hands, what will he do to me in the future?"

This is something she can't help but worry about.

It was quiet outside for a long time, until Nan Yan thought he had fallen asleep leaning against the door. At this time, she heard Jian Ruocheng's low voice saying, "He is not trying to humiliate you."

"..."

"He is trying to force me to speak up."

"what?"

"Although I have worked under King Ning's command, the people around King Ning don't believe me too much. Because I--have not yet voted for the title."

Voting certificate?

Nan Yan frowned upon hearing these three words.

She once heard from her grandmother who traveled the world, like some gangs, if someone wants to join, then they must show their loyalty. For example, killing a common enemy is their means of expressing determination.

And Jian Ruocheng--

Jian Ruocheng said: "If there is a scandal between me and you, or if I do something wrong with you, then I will be completely despised by the world, the court, the emperor, let alone me."

Nan Yan took a deep breath.

It turned out to be so.

They wanted to force him to go on a path of no return. If he really did something to himself, it would be arrogant, and the court would certainly not forgive those who offended the concubine.

Only then would they believe that Jian Ruocheng was in the same boat as them.

Nan Yan sneered.

She said: "So, do you want to hand in this'voting certificate'?"

Jian Ruocheng said calmly: "You can rest assured."

"..."

"I won't hurt you, and I won't let anyone hurt you."

"..."

When Nan Yan said this calmly but solemnly, Nan Yan suddenly felt a sorrow in his heart.

She said: "Second Young Master, hurting me is a small matter. Don't hurt yourself or anyone who cares about you."

"..."

"Who is the most heartbroken person doing these things now? I think you, you should understand."

The candlelight outside the window flickered.

Nan Yan knew that he was just like himself, and remembered how Jian Tongguang stood up and confronted his son at the altar.

Jian Tongguang is a man who truly lived out his character.

In the face of Zhu Feng's seizure of the throne, he did not lie to Zhu Feng when he faced the intimidation of the "Zhu Shi Clan".

Now, when Jian Ruocheng works under King Ning, he is also ruthlessly confronting him on the altar of worship.

But Nan Yan knew that he must be very sad.

The people outside fell silent.

The two of them didn't talk anymore, and the night, slowly flowing in this silence...

But Nan Yan thought not only about Jian Ruocheng outside the door, but also Jian Tongguang who was heartbroken to Jian Ruocheng.

Her mind has drifted to Peiping.

I was robbed by King Ning, and now the two people most worried about.

One is my own peace of mind. Although I know that the queen will take good care of her, as a mother, she is separated from her beloved daughter forcibly, and her heart is poached.

There is...

Zhu Feng.

How is he now? Is it better?

He went crazy that day and almost killed himself. But these days, there is no news from Beiping. Is he still ill, or something else happened?

Like Qin Ruolan said, he might forget everything.

Thinking of this, Nan Yan felt another sting in his heart.

Anyway, if he forgets everything, will he still remember himself?

She leaned on the bed and murmured: "Don't forget me..."
