Nan Jin put down the tea cup and said respectfully: "Wei Chen wants to ask the emperor for a gold medal to avoid death for his wife!"
Xiao Yue frowned and was slightly startled, thinking about Nan Jin's words secretly. There was a moment of silence. The king's eyes were deeply exploring Nan Jin's face, his eyes were deep. He seemed to be unhappy, but he was secretly suppressing it. It was like before a storm.
The sea is calm, the wind is beautiful, and the sun is shining, but you can't tell when it will be swallowed up by a storm.
"Nan Jin, are you used to negotiating terms with me?" Xiao Yue's voice was cold, and the wind passed through the bamboo forest, bringing an icy chill.
"Wei Chen comes from a noble family and has been doing business for generations. He is somewhat of a traitorous businessman. Your Majesty, please let me know!" Nan Jin said, neither humble nor arrogant, with an expressionless face.
The funny words diluted the displeasure in Xiao Yue's heart, and he couldn't help but feel a doting resentment towards Nan Jin. He could always arouse his anger, and then help you put it out easily with the next sentence. His tone was serious and sharp, and his expression
He was sharp and cold, with no intention of joking, but what he said could make people laugh, and he didn't seem to know it. Playing with people's hearts like this might be a natural instinct, and he couldn't even feel it.
Xiao Yue pursed his lips. It was known to everyone that Feng Nanjin doted on his wife. The couple were famous all over the world, but they were a model couple worthy of being in the holy heaven. Why did he give his wife a gold medal to avoid death for no reason?
Nan Jin's eyebrows were frosty, his eyes were calm, and he said in a calm tone: "The Emperor refuses?"
Xiao Yue said: "In the past hundred years of our dynasty, no dynasty or generation has ever had such special treatment. Nan Jin, the gold medal for immunity from death is a certificate of immunity given to generations of heroes. But your wife does not seem to meet the requirements!
"
The corners of Nan Jin's lips curved up in a cold and sarcastic arc, "Why is it inconsistent? She is the wife of a minor official, so she is not considered a member of a family of meritorious officials? Besides, whether it is consistent or not is not the emperor's final say!"
Xiao Yue stared deeply and looked carefully at Nan Jin's face. Asking for a gold medal to avoid death is a trivial matter, but why ask for it? This is worthy of careful consideration. Feng Susu is Feng Nanjin's wife, even if she really committed a capital crime
, as long as it is not the crime of treason, nor is the emperor Jinkou asking for death, Feng Nanjin can protect her from any harm, why does she need a gold medal to avoid death?
rebellion?
Or will he give death?
what is the reason?
After trying to figure out Feng Nanjin's thoughts for so many years, he still couldn't figure it out. The only thing that was certain was that Feng Susu was Feng Nanjin's weakness!
Nan Jin drank tea calmly, and in the silent air, only the aroma of mist green slowly flowed out.
"Why are you begging her? The request is also for yourself? Or is it your daughter?" Xiao Yue finally asked.
Nan Jin smiled meaningfully and said lightly: "I'm afraid that if something happens in the future, I won't be able to protect her. It's as simple as that!"
Xiao Yue narrowed his eyes. Nan Jin rarely negotiated deals with him. The last one was an imperial edict a few years ago, and both times were for Feng Susu. It seemed that he could...
"If the emperor feels reluctant, I will not make things difficult for others. You should pretend that I have never mentioned this matter. I also pretend that I have never heard of what the emperor mentioned today!" Nan Jin spoke in an official tone elegantly, clearly full of threats.
His tone was transactional, and his pale face really made him unable to bear the slightest bit of anger.
Just when Xiao Yue thought that he might be able to use Feng Susu's breakthrough point in the future, he was stunned by Nan Jin's words. Where did this come from?
As soon as I had an idea, I was stillborn. I really hated Feng Nanjin in my heart. It was like giving you a piece of pastry, but your throat hurts and you can't swallow it, so you can only watch.
"Okay! I promise you, but I also hope you can keep your promise! Xiao Yue has given in, and no one can stop what Feng Nanjin wants to do.
Xiao Yue couldn't help but sigh, the emperor was really a coward for doing what he did!
Nan Jin cupped his hands, bowed to him, and said sincerely: "I would like to express my gratitude to the Emperor on behalf of Su Su!"
"No need!" Pretending! The emperor snorted, "Who did you learn this bad temper from? Don't be tactful. Be careful that I will be really angry and destroy you in the future!"
Nan Jin looked at him steadily with her eyes, and smiled suddenly, with a hint of his usual aloof sarcasm in his dark jade-like pupils, "If that day comes, Nan Jin will also thank the emperor for his past grace and love!
"
Xiao Yue shook his head and looked at his face carefully, "Nan Jin, are you injured internally?"
Nan Jin concealed himself well, and it took him so long to be discovered by Xiao Yue. He didn't hide it and nodded lightly. There was nothing to hide!
His face was too pale, and even his delicate fingertips showed a frightening paleness. He could barely keep up the energy to deal with him for so long.
This was the first time that Xiao Yue saw the strong and cold Feng Nanjin showing signs of weakness. It was not obvious just now, but now he was even more angry, with drops of sweat on his forehead, like a candle, about to run out of life!
Xiao Yue was surprised, who else in the world could cause Nan Jin to be seriously injured?
"Who hurt you like this?" Xiao Yue asked worriedly, this man is so capable!
He had seen Nan Jin's martial arts, which was almost at its peak. He really couldn't think of anyone who could seriously hurt him. The only thing he could think of was that someone would sneak attack him.
However, Nan Jin's ability is only to sneak attack on others, so how can anyone have the opportunity to sneak attack on him?
"Prince Xiao!" Nan Jin took a deep breath, adjusted her inner breath, and calmly gave Xiao Yue a thunderous blow!
Xiao Yue didn't expect that it was his younger brother who had done something good. The corner of his eye twitched obviously, his face was slightly distorted, and he suddenly had an unpleasant feeling.
"You are absolutely ignorant. It's so irritating. Don't worry, Nanjin. I will definitely teach him a lesson when I go back!" Xiao Yue said indignantly.
Nan Jin's eyelids smiled slightly, his tone was calm, and he stated a fact calmly and slowly, "He was also seriously injured!"
Xiao Yue smiled awkwardly, secretly wondering in his heart, Xiao was by no means an impulsive person, and he understood the serious relationship between them. Even if these two people had sworn hatred, they would not fight.
Where did he play this?
Is there any secret between the two of them that he doesn't know about?
"What did you do last night?" Xiao Jue didn't come to court today. Xiao Yue knew it with just a quick guess.
"Fight!" Nan Jin responded calmly.
Xiao Yue was stunned, "Why?"
Nan Jin's face was pale with bitter ambiguity, "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about us. This has nothing to do with government affairs. It is a private matter for the ministers and the prince. Perhaps...the Emperor will know about it soon!"
Xiao Yue was confused and knew Nan Jin's temperament. He didn't expect to find out anything. He could just go back and ask Xiao Jue.
After he left, Nan Jin slowly breathed a sigh of relief, turning away from the sickly look on his face. Although his face was pale, he did not look like he was exhausted. It was just an illusion to confuse Xiao Yue.
, Nan Jin closed her eyes, with a cold sarcasm hidden in her brows.
Xiao Yue tried every word to test him, but he couldn't deal with it in every direction. He should be relieved this time, right?
Xiao Jue could cause him to be seriously injured, and Xiao Yue was probably very proud of himself!
A cold smile appeared on the corner of Nan Jin's lips, and a layer of ice appeared on Ruyu's face. If he knew who he was, what would his expression be like?
He suddenly felt a savage desire for revenge...
"Dad..." Xiaobai's childish voice drifted over, like a ray of sunshine shining into his dark heart, immediately driving away the last touch of coldness. The little girl walked into the pavilion, and wiped the cold sweat on Nan Jin's forehead with her soft hands, her face expressionless.
His expression was authentic: "I will tell my mother when I get home!"
"Mom, do you believe me or do you believe me?" Nan Jin asked with a smile, Xiao Bai's mouth curled up with a look of disdain.
Nan Jin smiled and said, "Be good, push daddy in to rest!"
"Dad, you are really confused. Can Xiaobai push you?" Xiaobai became even more contemptuous now and shouted, "Grandpa Han..."
Uncle Han, who had taken down the tea set, happened to come over and pushed Nan Jin in. Xiao Bai looked at the bamboo forest and said with some disgust: "Dad, Xiao Bai doesn't like the emperor!"
Nan Jin raised his eyebrows slightly and said humorously: "Xiao Bai doesn't have to marry him anymore, what do you like about him?"
※
Fengcheng, Fengjiabao.
Liusu has been in a very depressed mood recently and has lost her smile. She spends all day in the study dealing with official matters. She handles the Feng family's shipping, restaurants, medicine shops, silver mining and other businesses.
Before Nanjin came to Beijing, she had properly handled the business of the shipyard. With Liuxi Liuxiu and the six stewards of the shipyard, Liusu didn't have to be so busy. She only had to be responsible for supervision. She only had to run the restaurant and drugstore well, but
Liusu, however, took over all the business and did everything himself.
She was too busy and exhausted, so she slept deeply at night. She wouldn't miss Nan Jin and Xiao Bai too much, and she wouldn't have any extra time to worry about her inability to get pregnant.
Let nature take its course, easier said than done!
She is not so free and easy, and can really let go so quickly!
After so many years of failed hopes, she didn't know how to explain it to Mrs. Feng, so she had to keep it deep in her heart and planned to wait for Nan Jin to come back so they could have a good talk.
Nan Jin's medical skills are so good, there is no way there is nothing he can do.
Even if there is a slim chance, she will give it a try.
Every night, I was so busy that I wanted to sleep as soon as I got into bed, but it still took me a long time to fall asleep.
I miss Nanjin, Xiaobai, and her infertility.
The longing has penetrated into the bone marrow, thinking about them all the time, Liusu regrets letting Xiaobai go to Beijing. Nanjin is not here, looking at Xiaobai's face can still be enjoyable. It is better than nothing. Over the years, she has long been able to
Stand alone.
But without Nan Jin by my side, I always feel empty, uneasy, and panicked...
In addition to longing, there is also inexplicable fear.
Without the familiar body temperature and breath, she would always have random thoughts. In addition, she often had some strange dreams recently, which always woke her up in the middle of the night, and then she was so panicked that she couldn't sleep anymore.
Occasionally she would feel sad and cry for no apparent reason, and even she herself didn't know why.
A beautiful girl, wearing a beautiful school uniform, with extremely flowing straight black hair. She looks very young, with serious tassels. It's just her, but it doesn't seem to be her. That outfit is unfamiliar.
The handsome and cold man, with a domineering and noble look, and cold and hard eyes, also in unfamiliar attire, was Xiao Jue. She saw the girl holding his arm happily, walking past the row of tall sycamore trees. There was a faint shadow on her back.
The setting sun was spacious and beautiful, and its faint radiance enveloped them, coating them with a warm and happy color.
There is always a slight smile on the girl's face, which is a bit shy and reserved. It is very soft, very gentle, not too stunning, the face is very elegant, charming and as pure as a white cloud.
She didn't seem to like to talk much, and the man didn't like to talk much either. He could always walk in silence for a long time. Then she started to find topics to dilute the silence between them.
She heard the word... Xiao Jue!
The man's face was cold and expressionless, and he let the girl hold his arm, looking a little indifferent and arrogant. However, occasionally, you could catch the deep tenderness in his eyes.
Hidden under his cold appearance, he has never been discovered by girls.
This scene is as beautiful as a painting!
Liusu can feel the gentle and delicate feelings of the girl in the dream, her longing for love, and the shyness and fragrance of the girl's first love.
So clean, so pure.
Every time she dreams about this, she subconsciously wants to stop, as if she doesn't want to break such a beautiful picture, and subconsciously refuses anything to destroy the happiness between them.
Liusu even has a arrogant impulse. She wants to stab anyone who wants to destroy them with a knife.
But after all, she couldn't get rid of the dream. She dreamed of a girl wearing a white gauze getting married, and watched her walk towards the man she loved deeply with the blessing of her family.
The scene flipped and Liusu saw the girl's tearful face.
Under the orange light, the girl waited for the man to come home day after day, but was disappointed every time. Even when he came back very late, she could only look at his cold back.
Liusu saw her disappointed and sad expression, and saw her curled up in the corner and crying. Her voice was very suppressed, and she bit her fingers, not daring to cry.
But she was already in tears!
Later, Liusu saw them signing the divorce agreement and saw the girl walking across the road like a zombie. The rain was heavy and the thunder and lightning were terrifying. Liusu felt the girl's despair and world-weariness. When he saw the car rushing towards her dangerously, Liusu wanted to scream.
, tell her to be careful.
Gunshots...
blood...
Every scene is so tragic...
The girl lies in the hospital with a pale face, and the man looks on indifferently.
The picture flipped again, it was another wedding.
Liusu saw the girl dressed in black clothes, cold and noble, pressed the control in her hand, and a mushroom cloud rose up...
Everything is wiped out!
Liusu would be awakened by the huge explosion every time, her heart beating wildly, tears streaming down her face, and she couldn't help crying!
Through the dream, she seemed to see a girl falling in love with Xiao Jue, marrying Xiao Jue, and finally choosing to die together.
All of this is so clear and vivid.
Liusu felt all the girl's emotional fluctuations along the way, her past happiness and disappointment, and her final despair!
At that moment, Liusu was heartbroken!
I can't sleep for a long time!
She hasn't had this dream for a long time!
Before marrying Xiao Jue, she often had this dream, and it was because of this dream that she felt familiar with Xiao Jue.
The man in the dream looked exactly like Xiao Jue.
But since she married Xiao Jue, she rarely had this dream, and she had never had this dream in Fengcheng in the past few years.
Ever since Nan Jin left home, she has had this dream intermittently. Especially recently, it has become more and more clear. Every time she wakes up, her head is in severe pain, making her unable to breathe.
Liusu didn't know why she had such a dream, she just felt that the dream was so real, so real that she thought it was the story that happened to her.
The dream was tragic!
The dream is desolate!
Xiao Jue... why is it Xiao Jue?
The panic in Liusu's heart inexplicably deepened, and she had a bad premonition, but she couldn't tell what was going on.
She had no choice but to do more arduous work to make herself busier. She wanted to be so tired that she didn't even have time to dream!
Mrs. Feng felt very distressed when she saw that she was so busy. Liusu was obviously a little haggard. She couldn't sleep well at night and was busy all day long. Mrs. Feng tried to persuade her several times, but she just laughed it off.
Recently, shipbuilders have designed a new cargo ship, which is stronger than the previous cargo ship and has more than double the capacity. It is still in the casting stage.
Liu Xi went up the mountain the day before yesterday and excitedly told her that she could test the boat today and asked Liu Su to go to the Chidan River to have a look.
Liusu nodded and arranged the time for noon. After the boat trial, she could also go back to the restaurant to have a look.
After lunch, Liusu took Xiaocui Abi down the mountain and went to the Chidan River to see the new cargo ship sailing.
Liusu had just come down the mountain when an eagle flapped its powerful wings and howled in the air. Mo Li whistled hastily and the eagle swooped down and landed on his hand.
It's a letter, with Nan Jin's handwriting on it, saying Su Su personally expresses it.
Li Li shrugged his shoulders. The letter written by the young master to the young lady might be an intimate message between the couple and it was not convenient for them to read it. He took the letter back to the study and put it on the table.
"Young Madam just came down the mountain, it will be the same when you come back at night!" Li Li didn't care. After putting it away, he turned around and left the study.
By the Chidan River.
This ship, the work of all shipbuilders, lived up to expectations and sailed smoothly. Even though it carried more cargo than before, its speed not only did not slow down, but was faster than before.
Willow Creek Smile, this may replace all current sailing ships and become a new milestone in the shipping industry.
Liusu was also happy in her heart. It diluted the irritability in her heart these past few days and finally had a happy event.
"Nan Jin would be very happy if he knew about it!" Liusu said with a faint smile.
Abi smiled and said, "Young madam, Liu Xiu may have written to tell the young master the good news in the morning!"
Liu Xi smiled and nodded, Abi was absolutely right.
"Liu Xi, then I'm going to the restaurant. You can send me the accounts two days later. You've been working hard lately, so take a good two days' rest!"
"knew!"
Liusu smiled slightly and left the ferry to go back to the restaurant.
When Liusu returned to the restaurant, he began to deal with the backlog of business affairs over the past few days. Xiao Cui Abi was an active person, and Liusu's work was boring and boring. They didn't understand it either, so they wanted to go for a walk on the street.
Liusu just smiled and asked them to come back before evening.
The two of them agreed and ran away happily. Liusu shook his head and sat behind the desk. These two girls were no more patient than Zi Ling. Every time they followed her out, they would not stay peacefully in the restaurant until they could wait.
evening.
Liusu just opened the account book and suddenly frowned...
There seemed to be a mass of cold air swirling in the air, forcing and suppressing her, like a sharp knife, pressing hard against her throat, which made Liusu's heart tremble.
Inexplicably, I felt an oppressive suffocation.
The air is as cold as condensation...
A tall figure walked in from the door, full of rage, enough to make all creatures tremble with fear...
