Binding the Dragon for the Empress - Chapter 116
[Chapter 116: The Jingyu Building on the Soul Collection Road]
Xuanlong’s favorite thing to hear in this life should be the word ‘go home’.
Because he has no home.
He would be happy if someone would take him home.
In the past, Yan Yuan said to take him home, but left him in this uninhabited prison and let him suffer humiliation. Fortunately, he still had Querue to believe.
Fortunately, he was still willing to believe in Qule, so that Yan Yuan could coax this ray of ashes of the dead into the soul gathering box as Qule.
After coming out of the palace, Yan Yuan held the Soul Gathering Box and walked slowly through the streets and alleys of Chang’an City. He and Xuan Long had almost no memory of this street market, but it was hard to guarantee that Xuan Long’s scattered soul consciousness would pass here.
The rain stopped, and the night was dark.
Because it had been raining all day, it was quite desolate and desolate in the market tonight. The hawkers never set up their stalls, there were no pedestrians on the street, and it was pitch black everywhere.
On the other hand, the two brothels and restaurants in front of them were prosperously hung with lanterns, which barely added some luster to the market.
From a distance, I could hear the clanging of the violin flowing out of the brothel, a song “Spring River, Flowers and Moonlight Night”, which was cadenced and flowing.
In contrast, the quiet restaurant opposite the brothel was like a young man standing in the dark night, polite and silent.
In the brothel, giggling giggles are heard from time to time, some people are looking for fun, some people are drunk, and some people are walking around the world day and night, looking for the deceased wife who has been thinking about it every day and night.
When passing by the restaurant, Yan Yuan inadvertently raised her eyes and saw the three big characters ‘Jingyulou’ on the door plaque
. It ‘s not that he has no memory… In the
past, he sneaked into the thousand-year-old lake by accident… Xuanlong took good care of him every day, and went to the workshop three times a day to buy his favorite food.
He is picky about his mouth, he doesn’t like raw food, and he doesn’t like vinegary and bland rice. Since then, Xuanlong has identified Jingyulou, which is the largest restaurant in the capital. The chef’s craftsmanship is different from that of the royal chefs in the palace. Yan Yuan thinks that the taste is novel, so she eats a lot. Xuanlong sees that he likes it, and often changes the pattern. Buy food here and go back.
His injury can heal so quickly, apart from Xuanlong pulling his scales to save him, Xuanlong’s careful care is inseparable. The dragon looks unreasonable on the surface, but his heart is actually thinner than a pinhole. After getting along, he remembers his preferences clearly, knowing that he hates eating green onions, and there will never be the slightest chopped green onion on the next dinner table.
For two lifetimes, he has loved him like this… but he lost Xuanlong.
Yan Yuan closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Every sweet memory was turned into a sharp knife and stabbed into his warm heart. The pain made him unable to breathe and tremble, and the transparent liquid rolled down his cheeks.
If there is a future, it would be great… He is willing to spend the rest of his life close to eternity to make up for it, and return the kind that Xuanlong has treated him a thousandfold.
Unfortunately, no more.
The beginning of him and Xuanlong was a mistake.
It was his stubbornness and arrogance that killed him for two lifetimes.
If it weren’t for his own approach, Xuanlong might be lonely, but he can live well, be the God of War that attracts everyone’s attention, and live forever in the clouds.
It was his self-confessed love that bound Xuanlong, tore his soul and made him fall into hell…
The icy water droplets hit his face without warning, Yan Yuan opened her blurry eyes, and the falling water droplets became more and more The more, it rained again.
Using the barrier to block the rain, Yan Yuan lifted her sleeves and gently rubbed off the water droplets on the soul gathering box. She was about to leave when she suddenly saw a blue light from the gem in the center of the box.
Xuanlong is here…
a brothel on the left and a restaurant on the right.
Xuanlong can’t go to a brothel, that is…
Yan Yuan raised her hand and pinched a trick, letting her soul leave her body and enter the realm of Xuanlong’s soul consciousness.
The dark rainy night turned into day in an instant, the scorching sun was high, and the market was full of people. Small vendors selling fruits, vegetables, steamed buns, and knife-cut noodles lined the roadside, shouting enthusiastically and buying hot food. There is an endless stream of people who eat beef noodles with steamed buns.
Even the cold Jingyu Building in front of him has become a lively scene.
Jingyulou not only serves drinks and banquets, but also sells steamed buns and lotus leaf porridge made by the owner in the morning. Although the price is expensive, it is delicious. Even though it is limited to 1,000 copies per day, you still have to queue to buy it. Many young servants of wealthy families ran over to line up before dawn, for fear that they would not be able to buy them if they came late.
The two young men dressed as servants at the end of the line were talking in a low voice.
“Hey, my master loves to eat the steamed buns here. I came here before dawn today. Who knows that the people in front are faster than me, and they are all lined up outside. I don’t know if I can buy them…”
” Damn, I heard that the name of Jingyulou steamed buns has spread outside the city, and many ladies from neighboring cities come to Chang’an to visit, just to have a bite of steamed buns.
” Maybe in the middle of the night, I will ask people to squat at the door, how can we compare…”
“If you can’t buy it, you will be scolded by the master…”
Yan Yuan also likes to eat lotus leaf porridge and steamed buns here, he has tasted one. After that, he kept thinking about it, and after that, he would eat it every day, and Xuanlong would buy it for him every day.
It turns out that the food here is so hard to buy…
Obviously every time he wakes up in the morning, he sees that Xuanlong has returned, and the steamed buns and lotus leaf porridge are placed in the food box on the stone table, and can be eaten after getting up and washing. .
Curly steam floated out of the restaurant, enveloping Yan Yuan’s sight. He passed the crowd of people queuing outside the door and walked inward, taking each step so solemnly and slowly.
Someone was talking inside, 1 baozi and 1 tael, 3 buns and 2 taels, plus a lotus leaf porridge was exactly 5 taels.
Yan Yuan saw Xuanlong at the top of the team. The Xuanlong man stood in the steam room, looking down at the servant to take the buns from the steamer. The smoke dyed his stern outline with warmth, and he looked quite a bit. gentle.
Xuan Long was able to be in the first place and bought the first freshly baked breakfast, which proved that he came earlier than everyone present.
During the time she lived with this dragon in the ancient lake for thousands of years, Yan Yuan didn’t realize that the man beside her woke up so early every day, just to buy him a beloved breakfast.
“Apo…”
Yan Yuan wanted to cry when she saw that he was taking her so seriously, but he couldn’t bear to cry, he should laugh, because the time he spent with his Xuanlong would be less and less.
A call made Xuanlong turn his head dully. He saw Yan Yuan, and there was a little doubt in his green eyes.
“Why are you here.”
At this time, Yan Yuan should have been sleeping soundly in the ancient lake…
Yan Yuan did not expect Xuanlong to hear her voice. The illusory person, Xuanlong should not see him… Maybe because those people are not important, so this time he can easily invade Xuanlong’s soul consciousness and talk to him.
“I’m here to find you.”
Yan Yuan’s eyes were red and her face was smiling.
Xuanlong’s personality was incomplete at this time, and his head was quite slow to think, and he didn’t realize what was wrong with him being able to come out of the thousand-year-old ancient lake.
“Why are you looking for me… but you’re hungry?” He went back after a while.
Yan Yuan shook her head and said hoarsely, “No.”
“I just missed you.”
Xuanlong frowned slightly and pursed his lips. This is his performance of being at a loss. No one has ever missed him. Suddenly someone said that he missed him, and he would not be used to it.
At this time, the two of them had already had a skin-to-skin relationship. Xuanlong had just been hired, and his ears were particularly red, but he didn’t want to appear green and clumsy in front of Yan Yuan, so he didn’t like to talk.
Xiaoer urged Xuanlong to get breakfast, Xuanlong paid the money, took the food box, and left Jingyu Building with Yanyuan.
The two walked slowly in the market. Yan Yuan was holding the food box in one hand and Xuanlong’s hand in the other. Xuanlong saw that there were many people on the street and lowered his head to break away. Yan Yuan held his hand tightly. Reluctant to let go, he played a coquettish with him, and Xuanlong couldn’t do anything about him.
He said, “Apo… Don’t you think it’s a shame to hold hands with me and be seen by others?”
Xuanlong immediately defended: “I don’t mean that…”
Yan Yuan naturally knew that Xuanlong would not do that. Thinking, Xuanlong will only feel inferior, feel that he does not match him, and does not want to hold hands, probably because he is afraid that he will be discussed.
Unconsciously, her eyes became blurred. Yan Yuan opened her eyes wide and looked at the heroic profile of the man beside her
. In an instant, tears streamed down his cheeks.
Xuanlong didn’t understand why Yan Yuan was crying suddenly, he didn’t know how to coax him, so he nodded: “Okay.” At the same time, he stopped, walked around to Yan Yuan, raised his hand to wipe his tears: “…you don’t cry.”
The accumulated thoughts are like hot magma shot out of a volcano, swallowing Yan Yuan to the bone, and he shoved the man in front of him into his arms, rubbing him away, and he could become one with himself. Nothing can separate them.
“Apo…”
“Apo…”
“You hug me.”
He hugged me so tightly, it wasn’t enough, and he was crying and begging Xuanlong to hug him. Xuanlong listened to his pain and pleading, raised his hand to cover Yan Yuan’s back in confusion, and patted it lightly, feeling very sad in his heart.
He never asked about Yan Yuan. If he wanted to talk about it, Yan Yuan would take the initiative to tell him.
But to be able to make Yan Yuan so sad, except for one reason, Xuanlong couldn’t think of anything else.
“If you miss home…I can take you home now.” He whispered.
Yan Yuan buried her face on his shoulders and didn’t say a word for a long time. There was a steady stream of pedestrians around, and no one stopped because of their embrace.
When Xuanlong thought he would not answer, Yan Yuan said dumbly.
“Where I have you is my home.”
“Let’s go to the market, I want to buy something.”
Yan Yuan has never had the opportunity to get along with Xuanlong like this before… , but he is not rare. He didn’t even want to spend too much time on Xuanlong, thinking it was a waste.
But now he thought.
He wanted to be like an ordinary couple with Xuanlong, with firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea, facing each other day and night, watching the sun go down, holding the hand of his son, and growing old together with his son.
Pregnancy is too hard, they already have A Zhi, that’s enough, a family of three living peacefully and peacefully is a blessing.
However, he didn’t even have such a blessing…
“This hairpin
is for you.” “It’s a gift for you in advance for the Qiqiao Festival.” The
two stopped in front of a stall holding hands, and Yan Yuan picked up a silver hairpin with a cloud pattern and handed it to you. To Xuanlong, look at him with a smile.
