Nagato has such a slim waist

Chapter 571: Imperial Decree to Move the Capital

Chapter 571: Imperial Decree to Move the Capital
Aozai returned to Huaxi and slipped away in less than a quarter of an hour.

Xiaoman smiled and said, "He must have gone to look for his young wife again."

The maids were busy packing and giggling.

Feng Yun sat down lazily, looked at them, propped up his forehead, and waved his hands dizzily, "Go get some water, I'll take a shower and take a nap first."

The maids responded.

Feng Yun looked up again and instructed Xiaoman.

"I'm really exhausted from the long journey. No one is allowed to disturb me these few days."

Xiaoman was a little surprised.

In the past, when the lady came back from a long journey, she would immediately meet the managers and shopkeepers of various blocks and shops, and check the account books one by one, and she never complained of being tired.

Why am I so tired this time?

Since last month, the wife suddenly became unfamiliar with her.

In the past, she was in charge of all the affairs in the bedroom, and the wife never avoided her. But now the wife often avoids her, especially during the few days of the month when women are more cautious, as if she is afraid that she will be contaminated by something...

Xiaoman felt a little disappointed.

What I didn't expect was that after this stress, my wife stayed at home and rarely went out. She seemed to have lost some energy and spirit. She didn't like to keep maids to serve her anymore. She often stayed alone in the room and was not seen for most of the day.

People in Nagato rarely see her.

On the contrary, Yao Ru went to his wife's room twice in ten days to check her pulse. Each time he was locked in the room for an hour or two, acting mysteriously...

Everyone couldn't help but feel panic.

Could it be that the lady has some fatal symptoms and is deliberately hiding it from them?
Or...

Are you depressed because Your Majesty has not appointed a queen?

On the day Feng Yun came back, Chun Yuyan was given the cold shoulder by her. He went back and was angry for half a month and didn't bother to come to see her. On the day before leaving Andu, he heard these bad things and changed his schedule. He returned to Yunzhuang, asked Qu Ding to prepare the business account books, and came to ask for a meeting.

Feng Yun was very considerate and met him in the study.

"I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

"Xiaoman, serve the tea—"

She sat leisurely behind the wooden desk, with a lazy posture and a faint smile on her lips.

The wind blew in through the flower window, carrying the fragrance of flowers and brushing across her fair jade-like face, with an indescribable tenderness.

When Chunyu Yan saw that smile, all his anger disappeared in an instant.

"Feng Twelve...are you okay?"

He suspected that Feng Twelve was mentally ill.

Or maybe he was mad at Pei Jue.

He smiled faintly, as usual, and tried to comfort her jokingly.

"You seem like a different person since you came back from Xijing. Why are you so weird? Are you sick?"

Feng Yun chuckled, "I've been a little lazy lately, and I haven't entertained you well enough, so there's no need to curse me like that, Your Highness."

Chunyu Yan choked and looked away.

"Who cursed you? I care..."

He looked quite uncomfortable, and his ears were strangely flushed.

This is not what he wanted to say...

Chun Yuyan has always been heartless and disloyal, so how could he care about others?

I couldn't say it, but it came out anyway.

My heart beat faster and I didn't dare to look Feng Yun in the eyes.

Feng Yun frowned slightly, "What is your Highness doing? You and I have been dealing with each other for so many years, and business matters should be handled according to the rules... If there is anything in the future, you can make your own decisions, and you don't need to consult me."

Chun Yu Yan was startled, turned his head to look at her, and snorted softly.

"You just don't want to see me."

Feng Yun suppressed his expression and looked at him with sparkling eyes.

Chun Yuyan was slightly startled, "Did I say something wrong?"

Feng Yun said, "My Lord, I am already a wife. Such ambiguous words are not in accordance with etiquette and may cause trouble. My Lord, please don't say them again in the future."

Chunyu Yan's hot chest felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured on it.

All the concern seems like a joke.

There was also a chill that seemed to be rushing up from his heels, which inexplicably made him feel extremely panicked.

He used to joke around often, and Feng Twelve would talk back at him, even scold him and ridicule him. His words were much sharper than today, but he had never felt this way before.

This moment is different.

Feng Yun's cold eyes and expression that kept people at a distance were completely different from usual.

Chunyu Yan felt that the person in front of him was no longer Feng Twelve.

That was not the Feng Twelve in his mind.

"As expected, things are different now. It seems that I have to address you as Her Majesty the Queen?"

She had not yet been crowned queen, and all these words were mockery.

Feng Yun glanced at him, raised her eyebrows slightly, and smiled.

"Thank you for your good words. I hope that day will come."

Their eyes met, Chun Yuyan looked at the fiery light in her eyes, and his heart gradually turned cold. He couldn't help but feel the unwarranted mockery.

"Feng Twelve, you are no exception. Pei Wangzhi's ascension to the throne has taken your soul to heaven? Is it him as a person that you love, or the power in his hands?"

Feng Yun looked at him and smiled.

"Yes, I love power, and I love powerful men. The satisfaction and joy he can bring me is unmatched by anyone else... From body to heart, no one can replace him."

Chun Yuyan's eyes darkened and he stared at her intently.

crazy.

She must be crazy.

Only then would one say such dishonest words in front of others.

"You're willing to destroy your reputation just to get rid of me?"

Feng Yun remained calm and smiled brightly.

"Your Highness, you are worrying too much. I am telling you the truth. Please don't be so self-indulgent and cause my husband to misunderstand you."

Chunyu Yan felt a slight pain in his heart.

He was very glad that the cold light of the mask shielded him from the shame and humiliation.

No one would see the emotions churning in his heart...

Since he first met her many years ago, in his heart, Feng Yun was an outstanding woman. All her "differences from others" were magnified advantages, expanding in his heart over and over again until they completely filled his entire heart and there was no room for anything else.

For many years, he couldn't break free.

Chunyu Yan initially thought he was unfortunate.

I also hated the humiliation she brought.

Then I convinced myself...

This is lucky.

Feng Shier has such charm. What's wrong with being influenced by her? When I think of her, there is always some sweetness. Occasionally, I can make a joke and talk about business. That's all...

But she must break it all.

Shatter all his fantasies.

"Why?" He laughed at himself, "Why do you have to be so cruel? You want me to give up, right?" Feng Yun had a blank expression on his face, but there was a smile in his black eyes, a smile that was hard to see through.

"I never care whether the prince gives up or not."

She paused for a moment, lowered her eyes, and avoided looking at Chun Yu Yan's rather hurt eyes.

"I just don't want to be disturbed again. The prince is a very noble man, so he should take care of himself."

"Feng Twelve!"

Chunyu Yan stood up, his mask reflecting a cold light, looking particularly solemn and cold.

He was wearing a noble and gorgeous dress, which swayed gently in the breeze, looking a little desolate.

"Do you hate me so much that you won't tolerate me? Even though you know I... why are you so entangled?"

Having said this, he stopped, glanced at the people around him, and gritted his teeth secretly. He didn't dare to mention the unspeakable privacy in public.

"I never thought that you would harm me to this extent and not even give me a glimmer of light..."

Chun Yuyan's eyes were filled with sadness and he felt frustrated and out of control.

"Not even a ray of light would be given to me."

He repeated it again.

Feng Yun was seen sitting there upright, her face was beautiful but without any change.

It was as if I was quietly watching a clown show, without being moved at all by his sorrow.

The feeling of being out of breath became even stronger.

Chunyu Yan took a deep breath, and the dignity that roared in his chest swelled up, not allowing him to show any weakness to this woman again.

Silently, he glanced at Feng Yun, pointed at the pile of account books with a sneer, and avoided his gaze.

"Qu Ding, you stay and reconcile the accounts with the queen. Remember, the queen's status is precious, and things are different now than they were in the past. After the transaction is clear,... don't cooperate anymore."

He just left like that.

The steps were hurried and fast.

It was as if if I was a little slower, something would grab me back...

Feng Yun didn't say a word.

His eyes followed the tall figure until it disappeared from his sight, then he withdrew his gaze and smiled faintly at Qu Ding.

"Mr. Qu, thank you for your help."

Qu Ding felt embarrassed and emotional. He sighed heavily, nodded, and saluted Feng Yun.

"Yes."
-
Chunyu Yan left Huaxi that night.

He left very decisively. In the huge Yun Manor, he only left a housekeeper and a few servants to look after the house. He took all the rest away, as if he had never been there.

He had been angry with Feng Yun more than once or twice, and being angry was a common occurrence.

But this time, it’s real…

It was a long time before the people of Huaxi discovered that the mysterious Yunzhuang was closing its doors day by day and no longer open to receive guests, like a haunted house.

And the weird Prince Yunchuan, along with his domineering subordinates and servants, seemed to have disappeared in Huaxi overnight.

People have been discussing this for several days.

But today, Huaxi has expanded again and again, with more people coming and going, and there is something new every day.

Soon, no one talked about him anymore.

People seemed to have completely forgotten about Prince Yunchuan. Occasionally, when someone passed by Yunzhuang, they would point and say something mysteriously...

"This house belongs to the people of Yunchuan."

"Prince Yunchuan has lived here for a long time."

Feng Yun received the news the day after Chunyu Yan left.

She said nothing and was not affected by him.

The maids discovered that the lady took better care of herself than before. She would personally take care of her daily meals and even prepare some recipes for the kitchen.

Grandma Han was very happy to see this, and she kept watching the cook prepare meals for her.

Feng Yun did not fail in her mission. Her face became rounder and rounder as she ate more, and her waist became visibly plumper...

Ordinary people can't stand being fat.

Being fat will ruin everything.

But they were surprised to find that the woman looked better even when she was fat, and she seemed inexplicably gentler, more cheerful, and easy-going. She seemed to be bathed in sunshine, and her previous sharp and decisive look was no longer seen.

During Feng Yun's stay in Huaxi, his correspondence with Xijing was not frequent.

Xiaoman had secretly seen that the lady and His Majesty had some correspondence, but the words in the letters were mostly simple...

Even though these two people were so loving, their letters to each other were not as affectionate as hers and Zuo Zhong's.

Xiaoman is someone close to Feng Yun, and she is the one who can most directly feel the changes in Feng Yun...

But people outside think completely differently.

At first, people saw that Feng Yun didn't like to go out and made all kinds of guesses.

In the end, almost everyone agreed that—

Feng Shier Niang has become ill due to worry.

why?
Of course, that’s after the book is published.

She was Pei Jue's legal wife, and should have enjoyed great honor and ascended to the top in one step. But who could have known that she would be sent back to Huaxi by the current emperor?

Pei Jue did not establish a queen, did not divorce his wife, and did not even give her a title. Others felt sorry for her, let alone herself?
He must be in extreme pain to be so abnormal.

People understood what Feng Yun did, and the situation in the court of Dayong became much warmer because of Feng Yun's departure and Pei Jue's cold treatment.

There are many complicated issues in the court that need to be resolved urgently. Anyway, the emperor is still young and a man of his word. He has already compromised on the matter of Feng Shier Niang, so the court officials should not push him too hard.

So he stopped talking about the matter of establishing a queen and selecting concubines, and worked diligently, day and night...

A new dynasty brings a new atmosphere.

Two months later, before autumn came, the new dynasty had already brought about a huge change.

The three provinces and six ministries each performed their duties, and the world was peaceful and orderly...

All court affairs were sorted out, and the court officials, who had worked so hard for so long, finally breathed a sigh of relief. They were just about to bring up old matters, but unexpectedly, Pei Cong spoke first.

As soon as he spoke, he issued an edict.

“Since ancient times, emperors have received the mandate of heaven and ruled the people. They must choose an auspicious place to build their capital, pacify the country, and establish a new foundation.

Although the old capital was the birthplace of successive dynasties, it is difficult for it to reach its former glory.

I have observed the general situation of the world and examined the changes from ancient times to the present. I have found that the capitals should attach great importance to consolidating the fertile land and borders and blocking the thoroughfares.

Andu was the secondary capital of the previous dynasty. It has beautiful mountains and rivers, outstanding people and auspicious places. It has the Boundary Hill as a screen, a long river to defend, it connects to the vast ocean, and it is connected to Jiumo. It follows the will of heaven and the harmony of people. There is also a newly built detached palace that is unused, which is exactly what I want.

From the day the decree was issued, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory was instructed to select an auspicious day to move the capital to Andu in order to reassure the people, strengthen the foundation of the country, and lay the foundation for the eternal legacy of the Great Yong.

Since I ascended the throne, I have eliminated old abuses, promoted benefits and eliminated harm. All the good advice from loyal ministers is good. This is the only thing I have made up my mind about, so there is no need to say more.

Those who offer suggestions and advice will be generously rewarded.

Those who do not understand my intention will be punished.

Announce it to the world, let all know. I decree this!"

The court officials who heard the imperial edict in Chongzheng Hall were all shocked and caught off guard.

The decree was sent to the whole world, causing an uproar.

I have to prepare some information in the evening, and also work out the next plot.

Today is a long chapter, sisters, go to bed early...
