Chapter 714: Chapter 714 Torture_1

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The Emperor looked at Master Yan again, "Master Yan, tell me the truth, is there anything improper in what I have done?"

Master Yan pondered for a while before looking at the emperor, "In my humble opinion, Your Majesty has your reasons for whatever you do. You are the supreme being and everyone should follow your arrangements. Your Majesty should just do what you believe is right."

The Emperor couldn’t help clenching his fists a bit tighter when thinking about the scene where General Nangong’s whole family was executed, and the scene where the entirety of Zhuang Xiang’s family was executed.

Before, he was controlled by Qin Kun, but now, he was the controller.

Those at the helm of power have no place for emotions. Everything is done for benefit.

...

Nan Feng had already moved to live in Si Wan’s house.

The houses on Siyuan’s side were all made of wood, wonderfully complementing the surrounding vegetable and fruit gardens.

While the wooden house didn’t look particularly striking from the outside, the inside was fully furnished with a perfectly crafted interior, a testament to the impeccable craftsmanship of palace items.

The weather was neither hot nor cold, so Nan Feng opened the windows. Upon doing so, she could see the eunuchs picking vegetables in the garden, occasionally exchanging playful banter.

People often say that entering the palace is like venturing into a deep sea. The day she had spent walking the halls from the Great Hall was filled with suppression. It seemed that even the imperial gardens were the most relaxing place in comparison.

She left the window open and asked Little Fuzi, a young eunuch, for a pot of hot water. Along with the water, Little Fuzi also gave Nan Feng some flower tea, saying it was grown in the garden and tasted quite fragrant when brewed.

Nan Feng had no interest in making tea. After opening the window, she just lay down on the bed.

Bored to death.

Her mind was completely occupied with thoughts of Ye Ge.

...

The Imperial Garden seemed like a place isolated from the world.

Every early morning, the small eunuchs would rise to carry out their duties—catching bugs, fishing, weeding, and picking vegetables.

However, Nan Feng had no mood to do anything in this garden, except to lazily lie on the bed and catch up on her sleep.

She only woke up when it was time for breakfast.

After lazily washing up, she went to the kitchen to have breakfast.

Although everyone disapproved of Nan Feng’s behavior, no one dared to reproach her as she was the head of the place. Little Fuzi even helped her with her porridge, "Lady Nan, would you like some buns? We also have pickles, plus noodles."

"One bowl of porridge, two buns," Nan Feng replied.

Little Fuzi then prepared the buns for Nan Feng, "Lady Nan, take your time eating."

After having her porridge prepared, Nan Feng noticed everyone staring at her, so she lazily said, "Everyone else should continue eating, don’t worry about me."

Then, she looked at Little Fuzi, "Come wake me up when it’s time for lunch."

"Alright," Little Fuzi, being young, was keen to serve Nan Feng.

He particularly thought that Nan Feng had a powerful aura. In this garden full of eunuchs without a hint of masculinity, Nan Feng indeed appeared to be quite formidable.

After having breakfast, Nan Feng went back to sleep.

Out of sheer boredom, she later decided to take a stroll around the garden.

There were various flowers and plants in the garden along with fresh vegetables. Nan Feng picked a ripe tomato, wiped it with her clothes, and began eating it raw.

Without pesticides to worry about, she didn’t fear any kind of poisoning. She just enjoyed the sweet and sour taste of the tomato, and eventually finished the whole fruit.

After finishing the tomato, she looked up to see Old Xing’er.
