Chapter 1172 drink poison to quench thirst and raise soup to stop boiling

"The two of them are wronged and the other are guilty. However, if the one who is wronged is slightly improper, the one who is wronged will become my bad deeds; the one who is guilty will also become my sin."

Indeed, this is the trickiest thing.

At this moment, Eunuch Yu's voice sounded outside.

"Your Majesty, can you tell me about dinner?"

Zhu Feng turned around and saw that there were already a few people standing outside the door, so he said "um". Soon, Eunuch Yu walked in with a few eunuchs from the imperial kitchen.

Seeing them, Eunuch Yu smiled at Nan Yan, but Nan Yan coughed a little awkwardly and stood aside.

In fact, Eunuch Yu was fine, but the expressions on the faces of those little eunuchs made her embarrassed.

This seemed to be the first time that the emperor actually came to the cold palace to eat. However, I heard that he was staying in the cold palace before, so everyone didn't think this was too strange, especially when I walked into this room, I found that many things from the Yikun Palace had been moved in.

Everyone couldn't help but wonder, would the imperial concubine really have to set up camp here?

So, the emperor will go to the cold palace to favor the imperial concubine every day?

What's the matter!

Everyone had different expressions on their faces, but they were still holding them in. They put out the dishes in the food box, and put a full table, and then stepped back.

Aunt Tongyun and Nianqiu were coming to serve them with food and rice, so Zhu Feng waved his hands lightly: "No need, I will have dinner with the imperial concubine tonight, and you don't need to serve you."

So, they also retreated.

Nanyan was taken to the table by him and sat down. He looked at the delicious food on the table, but he had no appetite. However, Zhu Feng still picked up the chopsticks and said, "Eat more."

"yes."

Nan Yan was also obedient, holding the bowl and ate silently.

For a moment, the room became quiet again, and only the sound of the bowls and chopsticks colliding were left. After a while, Zhu Feng saw her put down the bowls and chopsticks, looked at the dishes on the table with a sensational look and asked, "Why don't you eat again? What are you thinking?"

“…”

Nan Yan was silent for a moment and said, "I'm thinking about some things when I was a child."

"oh?"

Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.

Since he lost his memory, he had to understand Nanyan's affairs from scratch. However, it was already troublesome to understand her person, especially the people around him could not explain it thoroughly. However, the queen and her family had some things with her.

So, he knew that she had another not very pleasant childhood.

Why do you still remember what happened when you were a child?

Zhu Feng said: "What did you think of?"

Nan Yan said, "I remember when I was a child, one year during the Chinese New Year, my brother and others teased me and wanted to push me into the pond, but I refused to submit, but instead pulled him into the pond, causing him to catch a cold. He also had a high fever during the Chinese New Year."

“…”

"My mother was furious and was about to hit me indiscriminately."

“…”

"Fortunately, my grandmother saw me, she protected me. My mother held a grudge and could not disobey my grandmother, so she suppressed this matter for the time being."

“…”

"Who knew that that night, a pickled fish steamed in the kitchen disappeared."

Zhu Feng subconsciously frowned: "They just said, did you steal it?"

"Well," Nanyan nodded and said, "Because my mother doesn't like me, during the Chinese New Year, I could hardly eat. That day, I was really greedy, so I lay down at the kitchen door to watch them steam fish. So, I clearly saw that it was a chef in the kitchen who secretly gave the fish to his family to take away."

Zhu Feng said: "But, they don't believe you."

Nanyan nodded and said, "At that time, no matter how I cried and said that I was wronged, my mother didn't listen and threw me into the woodshed and locked up all night."

When it comes to the past, she actually doesn’t feel too uncomfortable or painful anymore. After all, everything has passed.

But Zhu Feng frowned.

Seeing a trace of fierceness flashing in his eyes, Nan Yan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I am not about revenge in this matter. The matter has been over, and I have long stopped caring about it. I just think that this matter is quite interesting."

"What's the meaning?"

Nan Yan looked at him with his head: "One is wronged and the other is guilty."

Zhu Feng's eyebrows slightly frowned.

Nan Yan said: "It's like there's a radish and a pit. Although this radish was not pulled out of this pit, as long as it is put in, the pit will be filled and there will be no carrots."

“…”

"Just like the current situation, although this injustice and this sin were originally irrelevant."

“…”

"but"

Speaking of this, she bit the tip of her tongue.

Zhu Feng looked at her with a burning look: "But what?"

“…”

“…”

Nan Yan looked up at him, but said nothing, with contradictions and entanglements in his eyes.

Zhu Feng said the following words: "But, the injustice of the Jian family cannot be revealed."

“…”

Nan Yan almost bit his tongue out.

He nodded heavily.

In fact, she didn't care about King Ning's crimes, which was something that the emperor and ministers in the court should be worried about, but she had to care about the injustice of the Jian family.

If she just wanted to embellish the peace and fill the pit with an irrelevant carrot, how could she be worthy of the Jian family?

So, she couldn't continue.

Zhu Feng looked at her and his breath became heavier.

After a long silence, he slowly said, "What you think is exactly the same as what I thought before."

Nanyan raised her head and looked at him.

Zhu Feng said: "There is indeed only the only way to solve the current dilemma."

“…”

"But it's the first time I'm not sure what to do."

He has always been decisive in killing and fighting a war, attacking a city, and even launched the Jingnan battle to put the throne more often. He never hesitated and was undecided. This was his first time when he was facing a choice.

Nan Yan's heart was also entangled in a mess.

She thought for a long time and said softly, "Then, what do you say to Lord Heiyi?"

Zhu Feng said in a deep voice: "He said that the choices in the world are either more beneficial than disadvantages or more harmful than advantages, but only the choice in front of him is that the pros and cons are equal."

“…”

"No matter what choice, it is right; no matter what choice, it is wrong."

Nanyan remained silent.

He Yi is right.

This method is to drink poison to quench thirst and to quench the boiling soup.

But

She was silent for a long time before slowly raising her head, looking at Zhu Feng, and her voice was slightly hoarse, "Since the emperor has come up with this solution, he has made a choice."
