Binding the Dragon for the Empress - Chapter 96
[Chapter 96 Kill if you want to kill]
When autumn is over, it is winter.
This year’s winter came earlier than usual, and the autumn snow fell heavily at the end of the fall. The maid next to Ning Zhiyu was never executed. Ning Zhiyu was a kind-hearted person. If he woke up and found that Qingmei died because of him, he would definitely be sad.
Even if you don’t take good care of your master, it is a capital crime to make your master fall from the pavilion.
After Yan Yuan was bewitched, her temperament changed greatly. Compared with before, she was violent and moody. If someone from another palace offended him, she would be dragged down and executed without a word. In contrast, he treated Ning. Zhiyu and the people in Ningzhiyu Palace are the same as before.
The longer Ning Zhiyu was in a coma, the more irritable Yan Yuan became. Only when she returned to the Luanfeng Palace could she find a little peace in her heart, but the palace people hadn’t seen him smile for a long time.
A month later, Yan Yuan gradually believed that Ning Zhiyu didn’t fall down. He hadn’t listened to Qingmei’s words before, and felt that it was an excuse for the maid to avoid responsibility. After calming down, he would think that it was a rain and fog that day. In the hazy weather, why did Ayu go to the pavilion in the rain? Why didn’t he ask him to go with him.
They used to go together.
Yan Yuan sat on the edge of the bed and called Qingmei in, keeping her eyes on the man in white clothes like snow with clear eyes like jade: “That day… What did Ayu say? Say it again.”
Qingmei has repeated it to Yanyuan many times . Yes, but Yanyuan didn’t seem to get tired of listening, and often asked her to tell her what happened that day. Qingmei didn’t dare to disobey and opened her mouth with red eyes.
“The autumn rain fell that day, and the queen read poems in the palace for an afternoon. When the night was thick, she suddenly said that she wanted to go to the Yuqing Pavilion… The servants couldn’t persuade him, so they put on a fox fur for him, and went with them. Let him go out.”
“There are many stairs in the Yuqing Pavilion, and the queen refused to tell people to back it up. She insisted on going up by herself, and the servants followed. It was dark outside the pavilion and could not see anything. The servants advised him to come back another day. He said… he won’t come.”
“Why didn’t he come?” Yan Yuan asked in a hoarse voice.
Qingmei’s voice changed a bit: “The queen said… it’s been a long time ago, and I came here more often, but it’s just sad.”
Yan Yuan asked lightly: “What else did he say.”
Qingmei sniffled: “He said… … The person the emperor waited for was never him.”
“I don’t want to fight for things that don’t belong to me.”
Yan Yuan continued masochistically: “There’s more.”
Qingmei choked up: “Also… He asked his servants to tell the emperor, He loves you.”
“If there is still fate in the next life, I hope to be with you for a longer time, and longer…”
Yan Yuan’s eyes were flushed, and her throat was blocked. He knew that Ning Zhiyu must have misunderstood something, maybe he heard some rumors about him and Xuanlong, so he thought that the person he loved was Xuanlong.
Qingmei revealed the secret that she had been holding back for a long time: “When you and the son of Qiankun Palace were in the side hall of the Luanfeng Palace…, the empress knew it.”
“He just didn’t say it, and every day smiles and faces you on both sides. I seldom laugh behind my back.”
Yan Yuan summoned Xuanlong to Luanfeng Palace to vent his desires, and the entire palace staff of Luanfeng Palace knew that there is no airtight wall in the world, not to mention what happened in this palace. thing.
From Yan Yuan’s point of view, he wanted Xuanlong’s body just to vent his desires, but from Ning Zhiyu’s point of view, he probably didn’t think that way.
He must have thought that he had changed his mind… How desperate was it to be able to jump from such a high building…
Thinking of the pain that Ning Zhiyu was carrying alone behind his back, Yan Yuan felt extremely remorseful and regretted that she did not take care of Ning. Zhiyu’s emotions, hate that he didn’t care enough about Ning Zhiyu, hate that he wasted too much time with Xuanlong.
He gave Xuanlong too much tolerance.
After nightfall, Yan Yuan was drunk. It was Daughter Hong, which was brewed by Ning Chengxiang. It was packaged in the jade pot from the wine jar. Spirits, but plain water.
Everyone in the palace was sacked, and he was the only one on the table full of meals. Yan Yuan’s alcohol intake was not very good. Her daughter’s belly was red from a pot, and her cheeks were dyed red, her eyebrows and eyes were hazy, so that she had an outstanding face. more beautiful.
After drinking two pots in a row, with a pot still in her hand, Yan Yuan swayed to the Heavenly Prison. Chang’an belongs to the northwest, and the winter is cold to the bone. The prison is the most gloomy and cold, and there is not even a brazier for heating.
Xuanlong was lying on the old quilt that came from nowhere, and his tall belly was the most conspicuous. The jailer opened the cell door and retreated to an area where the eyes and ears could not hear. Yan Yuan went in with the jug, and when she released her hand, the empty jug fell to the ground and shattered.
The man on the ground did not wake up because of this huge movement. Yan Yuan stepped forward, lifted the quilt on Xuanlong’s body, and deceived him. The big palm unwrapped the clothes on Xuanlong’s body smoothly, revealing that she was pregnant. 7 month old belly.
The whiplash he suffered a month ago has healed, leaving a mottled and ugly scar, which is very unsightly to look at.
Xuanlong was awakened by the pain, as if a blade had forcibly split his body and tore it apart again. It was cold and painful. He opened his green eyes, and his sight and hearing gradually became clearer.
It was Yan Yuan, his kiss fell on Xuanlong’s ear, and he called out a name desperately and hoarsely: “Ayu…”
“Ayu…”
Xuanlong was silent for a long time, and said softly, “Don’t touch me.
” You don’t want to touch me.”
He raised his arms to push Yan Yuan’s firm waist and abdomen, the opponent’s movements were unprecedentedly gentle, and it was precisely because of this that Xuanlong collapsed.
He had no strength and couldn’t break free. The chains on his hands hit the ground with each other’s movements, making a clanging sound. There was no protection at his wrists.
Xuanlong slowly tilted his head to avoid Yan Yuan’s falling kiss, his handsome brows were numb.
“Go away.”
“Go away.”
It was so cold outside, and Yan Yuan was blown by the cold wind on her way here, and she woke up most of the time. How could she have identified the wrong person.
He did it on purpose, the body needs to be vented, and the emotions in his heart also need to be vented. If he keeps holding back, he will really go crazy. Pretend that it is Ning Zhiyu, the living Ning Zhiyu, maybe it will be better.
Yan Yuan thought so.
However, this is not the case.
The scars on Xuanlong’s body were uneven, and no longer smooth as before. Yan Yuan felt even more uncomfortable when she touched her palm. He didn’t want this, he didn’t want this… It’s all to
blame for this stupid dragon. After handing over the inner alchemy, if he handed over the inner alchemy, how could he have fallen into such a situation, how could they have come to such a point, and why would he have struggled so hard.
Thinking like this, Yan Yuan hated in her heart, and folded Xuanlong into various difficult positions, deliberately hurting him.
Xuanlong knew from this that Yan Yuan recognized who he was and was forced to bear the pain that the other party brought him. The empty green eyes were like a floating hole, and all the sorrows of the world were absorbed in it.
After it was over, Yan Yuan couldn’t put it on anymore. He got up and straightened his trousers and regained his neat appearance. He lifted the damp bedding to cover Xuanlong’s unsightly body at will, his eyes darkening.
“After tomorrow, if you don’t hand over your inner alchemy again, I will… dig your heart with my own hands.”
Xuanlong closed his eyes and did not respond.
Yan Yuan knew that he heard that Xuanlong was still awake just now, so she raised her feet and pressed her toes against his huge belly through the quilt: “This time, I’m not joking with you.”
Xuanlong fell asleep.
It is normal for a pregnant woman to be drowsy, but no one is as drowsy as him, often sleeping all day long, even missing meals.
Yan Yuan didn’t like the child in his womb, and suspected that the child was someone else’s bastard, so she did not allow the jailer to send him good food, only rice and steamed buns. Sometimes I think, if the little bastard just fell off like this, everyone would be happy and save trouble in the future.
How could he know that the source of the child’s nutrient absorption is the power of Xuanlong’s soul, which has little to do with food. Moreover, even if he asked people to send rich food every day, Xuanlong couldn’t eat much.
When people are dying of illness, most of them starve to death, because they are so sick that they have no desire to eat.
No matter what kind of creature, there is probably not much difference in this respect.
Yan Yuan thought he was too sleepy, so she called him several times without waking up, leaving behind the filthy Xuanlong and leaving without anyone to clean it up for him.
Snowflakes floated in from the hole above his head and landed on the lifeless man and on the quilt. The moonlight was shining, and the slowly falling snowflakes merged with him into a bleak picture, as if seeing him off for his departure.
No one knew how many days he would live.
Even the flower essence couldn’t be sure of the time, but Yan Yuan felt that Xuanlong had a long way to go, thinking that his lifespan was as long as the sky and the earth, and he could just waste it.
Unexpectedly, this man in the dungeon is not in much better condition than the golden and precious person lying in the Luanfeng Palace and being carefully cared for.
He thought that Xuanlong was made of iron, and he would be fine no matter how much he tossed it, so he could bully him casually.
Tomorrow is coming soon.
Yan Yuan was busy dealing with state affairs during the day, and went to the Heavenly Prison after nightfall. This time Xuanlong was awake. He had already put on the prison uniform that Yan Yuan had returned last night, and sat with half a steamed bun in his hand. Eat slowly in the futon.
The jailer opened the door, and when Yan Yuan walked to Xuanlong’s side, Xuanlong didn’t respond and regarded him as air. Yan Yuan slowly bent over and brushed the steamed bun from his hand with the back of her hand.
“Yesterday you fell asleep and didn’t hear what I said, I will repeat it with you today.”
“Within today, if you don’t take the initiative to hand over the inner alchemy, I will dig out your heart. This time, it’s not a joke.”
Baimantou fell to the ground, rolled around a few times, and it was stained with ashes and could no longer be eaten. .
Xuanlong’s dry lips moved slightly, and his voice was hoarse: “If you want to kill it, kill it.”
Yan Yuan’s face was heavy: “You must not be ignorant, it will not do you any good.”
“Don’t you prefer to die, not Are you willing to save him?…”
Xuanlong: “Yes.”
“He and I have never known each other, why should I save him with She Neidan?”
Yan Yuan changed her face completely: “Come on! Get the demon chain, Put him on!”
