While Sheng Yumei and Yao Huanzhu were busy dealing with the subsequent affairs of the Marquis of Zhen Nan and stabilising the dynasty, Li Nan was happy to stay in the Great Qian Palace.
On this day, Li Nan had nothing better to do than to go out and take a stroll on the street.
After all, this was the imperial capital of one of the four empires in the True Martial World, and its prosperity could not be compared to other places.
Now that he had arrived here, it would be a bit of a loss if he didn’t go around and buy some souvenirs or something.
But when Li Nan was about to go out, he happened to bump into Sheng Yumei, who had returned.
Nowadays, Sheng Yumei was dressed in a dragon robe and wearing a golden crown, and her whole body looked more graceful and noble and martial, completely like a royal sister.
“What, are you going out?”
Sheng Yumei asked curiously when she saw Li Nan.
Li Nan nodded, “Yeah, I’m going to go outside and take a look around the streets, do you want to come with me?”
“Sure ……”
Sheng Yumei was ready to agree without even thinking about it.
However, before she could say anything, Yao Hate Chu behind her hurriedly whispered in her ear, “Your Majesty, several military ministers are still waiting.”
Only when she heard this did Sheng Yumei suddenly think of something.
“That’s right, since that’s the case, then I won’t accompany you out.”
Sheng Yumei’s entire person clearly looked a little lost.
In fact, before he met Li Nan, Sheng Yumei had always been a very diligent emperor, and whenever he dealt with court affairs or graded documents, he would even reach the point of forgetting to eat and sleep.
At that time, Sheng Yumei’s entire body and mind were devoted to the imperial government, with no distractions.
But now, she was always distracted by Li Nan’s affairs, and even when the ministers were reporting to her, her mind would involuntarily recall what had happened between herself and Li Nan at the villa on Xiadan Mountain.
Whenever she recalled those incidents, Sheng Yumei would even laugh involuntarily, scaring the ministers who were reporting to her, thinking that there was something wrong with their reports.
During the time that Li Nan stayed in the palace, Sheng Yumei always thought about when she could spend time alone with the other party, but because of the busy schedule, she did not have the opportunity to do so.
Even at this moment, she had thought that it would be fun to wander around the streets of the imperial capital with her partner.
However, it turned out that there was no such time, which made Sheng Yumei’s heart feel a bit disappointed.
Li Nan did not know what was on Sheng Yumei’s mind. In fact, she had been in a hurry for a long time and Li Nan had already got used to it.
So when he heard Sheng Yumei’s words, he didn’t think too much about it.
“Alright, since you don’t have time, then I’ll go alone.”
Li Nan said, and was about to go straight out.
At this moment, Sheng Yumei, however, thought of something else, “Wait a minute.”
Li Nan turned back around, “What, is there something else?”
Sheng Yumei smiled faintly, “Since you’re going out, then take the Silver Liner carriage out.”
“Ah? Is this …… necessary?”
Li Nan couldn’t help but smile bitterly for a while.
This Silver Lin Carriage was specially prepared for Li Nan by Sheng Yumei and was pulled by four Silver Lin Ancient Beasts, which was very luxurious.
Originally, Li Nan only wanted to go out for a stroll by himself, and did not think that he would need such a big show.
But Sheng Yumei said, “Of course, you are at least 9,000 years old in the Great Qian Empire, so you should have the necessary pomp and circumstance, otherwise, people would say that I, the emperor, am belittling meritorious officials!”
A smile appeared at the corner of Sheng Yumei’s mouth.
In fact, Sheng Yumei wasn’t entirely joking.
Nowadays, the reputation of Li Nan, the Ninth Thousandth Year, was too high in the whole Great Qian Empire. Rumours about the Ninth Thousandth Year were circulating everywhere in the streets and in the marketplace, and the popularity of the Ninth Thousandth Year was even greater than that of Sheng Yumei, the emperor.
It was a good thing that Sheng Yumei knew that Li Nan had no interest in the throne of the Great Qian, otherwise, she would have been worried about the danger of being overshadowed by the emperor!
At this moment, hearing Sheng Yumei’s words, Li Nan could not help but burst into a bitter smile.
“In that case, then, well, let me dip my toe into the light of a beautiful woman as well!”
Li Nan said with a smile.
Sheng Yumei also hid her mouth and smiled, her beautiful eyes radiating a joyful glow.
On the side, Yao Hate Chu saw this scene in front of her, but it was as if she had seen a ghost.
To be honest, Yao Hate Bamboo was really on the verge of not being able to keep up with these two people at all.
It had only been ten days since she had left her own majesty, and at first, before she left, her own majesty was still very unimpressed with this man.
But when she came back, the two of them had already gotten hot, and even said these flirtatious words in front of her, which was a bit hard to accept.
It had only been ten days, what kind of enchanting soup had this man poured into his own Majesty’s head that had made His Majesty, who was always so cold, so favourable to him?
Afterwards, Sheng Yumei had someone call for a Silver Lin convoy.
The entire convoy was spectacular, with hundreds of guards in addition to a luxurious Silver Liner car.
In fact, it was actually not just for the sake of looking good, but more so, to maintain the royal majesty!
Afterwards, Sheng Yumei pointed to a figure on a horse and said to Li Nan, “This is the captain of the Silver Linguard, his name is Jin Feng! If you have anything to do, just tell him to do it.”
Jin Feng also arched his hand towards Li Nan and said, “My servant Jin Feng, I have met the Ninth Thousandth Year!”
Jin Feng had naturally heard rumours of the Ninth Thousandth Year, and his attitude at this moment was incomparably respectful.
Li Nan nodded, and then sat directly in the Silver Liner carriage.
“Rise and drive!”
As Jin Feng gave the order, a low roar like rolling thunder came out from the mouths of the four Silver Liners, and the entire Silver Liner Guard team marched straight towards the outside of the palace.
As he watched the Silver Lin Guards walk away, Sheng Yumei was still standing there in a daze, with a slight smile at the corner of his eyes, as if he was thinking of something wonderful.
Seeing this scene, Yao Huanzhu said in a tentative whisper, “Actually, if Your Majesty can really take a fancy to him, I will ask for you and find a way to let him stay.”
Hearing this, Sheng Yumei, however, immediately became a little alarmed and hurriedly said, “No!”
“Oh? Why?”
Yao Hate Chu was a little puzzled.
Sheng Yumei hesitated for a moment and hurriedly said, “What he ultimately wants to choose is his business, I don’t want to put him in a difficult position.”
Yao Hate Chu could not help but be surprised for a moment.
She had never imagined that Her Majesty, who had always been decisive and domineering in her dealings, would have such a small woman’s side when facing this man, that she would have to think of the other party first in everything!
Yao Huanzhu now finally understood that her Majesty, in this relationship, had already fallen completely!
“Alright, let’s go.”
After saying that, Sheng Yumei took Yao Hate Chu and headed straight towards the palace.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Li Nan had already left the palace in his Silver Liner carriage and arrived above the streets of the imperial capital.
As expected of the Great Qian Imperial Capital, the streets here were extremely wide.
This Silver Liner Carriage was already very wide, but these few lanes were more than enough to accommodate even four Silver Liners passing through at the same time.
When Li Nan looked out of the window, he was also instantly and completely shocked by the sight in front of him.
He saw that the entire street was filled with people and traffic.
On both sides of the street, there were shops, wine shops and pawnshops everywhere, and every shop was almost packed with people.
This made Li Nan feel the prosperity of the Great Qian Imperial Capital.
In fact, as the Great Qian Imperial Capital, the prosperity of this place was one of the best even in the entire True Martial World!
To put it more graphically, it was the equivalent of Yanjing and the Devil’s Capital of Yanxia, if not more so!
At this moment, as the Silver Lin convoy appeared on the street, it immediately caused quite a stir.
“My goodness, are those the Silver Linn Ancient Beasts?”
“A Silver Liner carriage, this is a royal caravan!”
“Those sitting inside must be royal sons and daughters!”
“Maybe it’s His Majesty himself!”
For a while, the surrounding crowd looked unusually excited and chattered.
Many people were stopping to watch, and for a while, the entire Silver Liner carriage instantly became the focus of everyone’s eyes.
And those cars that were originally in front of the Silver Liner caravan were all moving towards the side to avoid it.
Because they all knew very well that in the whole of the Great Qian, only the royal family was qualified to use this Silver Lin Ancient Beast.
Therefore, the person sitting in this Silver Liner was definitely not someone they could afford to mess with.
Seeing the reactions of the people around him, Li Nan’s heart could not help but feel helpless.
He had only wanted to simply go shopping, but he had never thought that it would cause such a big commotion, and to a certain extent, it had even caused a lot of trouble for the people on the street.
If he had known that this would be the case, he would not have made such a big scene.
He said he wanted to go shopping, but there was no way he could go shopping in this situation.
Li Nan only felt that as soon as he stepped off the Silver Liner, he would immediately attract the attention of everyone!
However, Jin Feng and the others outside the window did not react at all to the crowd around them, and did not even look at them askance, obviously they had long been used to such a scene.
This made Li Nan think of how Sheng Yumei should have travelled in this kind of Yinlin car.
As usual, when she went out, she would also encounter a situation like her own, even more enthusiastic than her current situation.
Wherever she went, she was the centre of attention in everyone’s eyes, which sounded like a very good thing, and if one had a strong sense of vanity, one’s vanity would certainly be greatly satisfied.
However, Li Nan now truly felt Sheng Yumei’s plight.
Although she was the emperor, I am afraid that she also had a loneliness in her heart that others did not understand.
