Chapter 982: Chapter 782 Hand Over Nan Feng

Nan Feng was learning to paint in the courtyard with Ye Ge.

It was also a way to pass the time. She had been in the Palace for over half a month, and fortunately, with Ye Ge’s company, she wasn’t sick from boredom.

Initially, they focused on drawing lines, and then they moved on to mixing colors. A good pupil reflects a good master, under Ye Ge’s guidance, Nan Feng could now paint a tree.

As she was painting, a palace maid came to report that the Imperial Consort had arrived and was waiting outside, asking Nan Feng to come out and meet.

Tuoba Yun?

Nan Feng looked at Ye Ge, "She is Tuoba Lie’s sister. I have combed her hair and done her makeup before. She isn’t as bad-natured as Tuoba Lie. Should I go out and see her?"

Ye Ge said, "I’m not worried about you. Go ahead."

"No need, I’ll just chat a few sentences. If we don’t hit it off, I will leave immediately. We are hostages now; she wouldn’t dare to do anything to me," Nan Feng reassured Ye Ge.

Uncertainty still lingered in Ye Ge’s eyes; he was reluctant to let Nan Feng go like this.

Nan Feng smiled and kissed Ye Ge, "Don’t be nervous. I’ll be back soon."

Nan Feng let the palace maid lead the way. They left the separate palace they were living in, crossed a garden, and arrived at another pavilion.

Because the Emperor had decreed that no one from the harem should disturb Nan Feng and Ye Ge in their separate palace, even the Dowager Empress couldn’t visit.

Under a tree, Nan Feng saw Tuoba Yun sitting at a stone table.

Having not seen her for over a month, she still looked the same as when Nan Feng had seen her on the grasslands: a bit wild and, as a consort, also somewhat haughty.

What was different was that previously her gaze towards Nan Feng was respectful and friendly, but now it was filled with hostility.

Nan Feng greeted her with a bow, "Greetings to Your Highness the Imperial Consort!"

Tuoba Yun looked down on Nan Feng with disdain, "Nan Feng is with another man now, and even her way of greeting has shifted to the Dajin style."

Nan Feng wasn’t angry and spoke calmly, "Nan Feng has always been from Dajin, and this is Dajin, so it is natural to follow the Dajin customs here."

"Hmph, Dajin’s customs," Tuoba Yun glared at Nan Feng once more, then continued, "I really don’t understand what you’re thinking. My brother has been so good to you—don’t you feel it at all? On the way to Dajin, when we were attacked by bandits, he didn’t even look after me but rushed to save you. And you?"

"I know he has been very good to me, but I am already married," Nan Feng said lightly. "However, Your Highness the Imperial Consort, did you seek me out just to talk about this?"

"What, you think we came to reminisce?" said Tuoba Yun.

"Considering our relationship, it seems we haven’t reached the point of reminiscing yet," said Nan Feng calmly.

"That’s right, I didn’t come to reminisce. I just want to persuade you. It’s not too late for you to return to my brother. Otherwise, he really will launch an attack. Once he starts a war, do you have any idea how compromised my position will be? Caught in the middle, I am torn—on one side is my family, and on the other is my husband. Whom should I support?"

Nan Feng replied, "Your Highness, since you find the situation difficult, I might have a solution. You could write to your brother advising him not to take any rash actions that might end up harming both sides."

"You expect me to persuade my brother?" Tuoba Yun laughed, "Right now, he only wants you."

"So what you’re saying is, you hope I return to your brother’s side?"

Tuoba Yun nodded, "I understand my brother’s temperament. Although he speaks of attacking the city and slaughtering the people, if you return to him, he definitely won’t do that. He wants only you, nothing more."
