Binding the Dragon for the Empress - Chapter 55
[Chapter 55 Anyway]
The person who came was the palace maid beside Ning Zhiyu. Yan Yuan heard that Ning Zhiyu had an accident and left without turning her head, so Xuanlong had to swallow the words that came to his mouth.
There was silence in the hall, Xuanlong took out the contraceptive pill in the hidden compartment on the side of the bed and took a pill, the sharp pain in his abdomen gradually faded, but the pain like being gnawed by ants all over his body only increased.
That is the taste of being devoured by the power of the soul, starting from the moment when the inner alchemy is lost. There are always a few hours a day when the pain is severe, probably just as a person needs a lot of nutrients when they are hungry, and when the fetus is hungry, it also needs to absorb a lot of nutrients.
Xuanlong’s body curled up like a severely wounded pangolin, trembling visibly to the naked eye, he wrapped his arms around himself, trying to relieve the pain, but the effect was obviously weak.
There was a cold sweat on her back, and she could barely maintain her composure in front of Yan Yuan, but she couldn’t do it at the moment, her mind was so chaotic that she didn’t have the energy to think about anything else, and she fell asleep in the pain.
When Yan Yuan arrived at the Luanfeng Palace, Ning Zhiyu was waking up from the bed, and the palace servant boiled the medicine and brought it to the bedside, and persuaded him bitterly: “Empress, please drink the medicine, if the emperor knows that you are like this If you don’t cherish your own body, you should be so worried…”
Ning Zhiyu was as thin as a scrawny paper figurine, lying thinly in the thick brocade quilt, her scarlet eyes looking lifelessly above , looks like it’s going to die at any time.
Hearing the palace servant’s words, he just blinked blankly without any reaction.
Seeing that the persuasion was useless, the eunuch gave a wink to the two little eunuchs next to him. The little eunuch immediately went to the bedside and together supported Ning Zhiyu’s shoulders and back to support him. The old eunuch came forward with the jade medicine bowl. , scooped a spoonful of the dark soup to Ning Zhiyu’s lips.
“Empress Empress, just take a sip…”
Ning Zhiyu turned her face away and raised her hand to block it. He hadn’t eaten for a few days, and he couldn’t control his strength. The green jade bowl was thrown to the ground with a crisp sound. After that, it shattered into pieces, and the soup with dragon scales sprinkled all over the ground.
The big eunuch sighed, patted his thigh and said, “This medicine is extremely precious, and the medicine inside was brought back by the emperor after a lot of hard work. If you spill it, it will disappear…” The corners of
Ning Zhiyu’s mouth curled . He got up, his eyes were dead, and he said softly: “If you don’t have it, then you won’t have it.”
“We agreed… to hold the hand of my son and grow old with him…”
“He died, what reason do I have to live… I want to Go to accompany him.”
“On Huangquan Road… I will hold his hand, and in my next life, I will be a husband and wife…”
Ning Zhiyu’s temperament is slow and gentle, gentle and quiet, and she treats palace servants extremely well. The hall was desolate, and when the palace people saw that he was determined to die, they raised their sleeves and wiped their tears, not even noticing that someone outside the hall came in.
“Ayu…”
Ning Zhiyu was stunned for a while, then looked stiffly at the source of the voice, Yan Yuan dressed in a dragon robe, opened the bead curtain and walked towards him quickly. Ning Zhiyu moved his mouth, but failed to make a sound.
When Yan Yuan came in, the palace people voluntarily backed away and made way. Yan Yuan sat down beside the bed, grabbed Ning Zhiyu’s cold hands, and said anxiously.
“I heard that you haven’t eaten and taken medicine well for a few days. Do you want to be scolded by me?”
Ning Zhiyu stared at the stunning face in front of her, tears falling from her dark eyes to her cheeks: “A Yuan… Is that you?”
Yan Yuan tightened his hand: “It’s me.”
Ning Zhiyu smiled, her fingertips trembling as she touched Yan Yuan’s face, feeling the fresh touch and warmth, she began to cry softly “They said you were dead…”
Yan Yuan took the man into her arms, patted Ning Zhiyu’s back, and said softly, “Isn’t this back?”
“Don’t cry, don’t cry.”
Ning Although Zhiyu was a few years older than Yan Yuan, when they got along, Yan Yuan’s steadiness was never inferior to him, perhaps because she felt that Ning Zhiyu was lonely and alone, and he was the only one who could rely on him, so she was reluctant to make him suffer a little bit of grievance.
Yan Yuan did not tell Ning Zhiyu when she left the palace that day, and used the excuse of being busy with government affairs for several days to not meet with Ning Zhiyu. Ning Zhiyu thought that he was really busy and did not come, so she asked the palace maid to make a delicious meal. The dim sum was sent to Qiankun Palace to tell him to pay attention to his body. As a result, the palace maid inadvertently learned from the conversation between Chen Yan and the guard that the whereabouts of Yan Yuan’s body was unknown after her death.
Ning Zhiyu ordered someone to bribe the head of the guard, and learned that Yan Yuan was stabbed to death in order to find his medicine, and she was suddenly disheartened and begged for death.
Yan Yuan comforted Ning Zhiyu and learned the cause and effect from him, and she was terrified. If he didn’t come back to life, or woke up a few days later, would Ning Zhiyu really die with him?
“Silly Ayu.” When Yan Yuan reprimanded Ning Zhiyu, her tone was also soft and soft, not like she was facing Xuanlong.
“At any time, you can’t belittle your own life. I have worked so hard to find your medicine, so you repay me like this?”
Ning Zhiyu stopped crying and leaned against Yan Yuan in peace. In my arms, I listened to his steady and powerful heartbeat: “Everyone in this world despise my life, only you care about me and feel sorry for me.”
“If you die, I will follow you, even if you go to the underworld, as long as you With you by my side, I am not afraid of cows, ghosts and snakes.”
“Because I know…you will protect me.”
Yan Yuan felt a sting in her throat after hearing this, and the deep guilt in her heart came up again.
Ning Zhiyu trusted him so much, how could he break his heart, this is his lover in his past life and this life… What about Xuanlong, what about Xuanlong?
The despair of the dream made Yan Yuan reluctant to hurt Ning Zhiyu in the slightest, and her inexplicable obsession with Xuanlong made him unable to be cruel. In a dilemma, Yan Yuan was still hesitating.
He temporarily put the matter of Concubine Can in his heart, and asked the palace servants to bring in a light meal. Seeing that Yan Yuan was safe, Ning Zhiyu was finally willing to eat. The vegetable and meat porridge that came over, he chewed slowly, which made him look extraordinarily elegant.
Halfway down the bowl, Ning Zhiyu waved her hand to reject the spoon that Yan Yuan sent, covered her lips and coughed twice before shaking her head.
“No.”
Yan Yuan knew that he had a small appetite, so she didn’t ask for it. She handed the bowl to the palace servants and asked them all to leave, leaving only two people in the palace.
“Are you sleepy?”
“Looking at you, I’m not sleepy anymore.”
Although Ning Zhiyu said so, but because her body was too weak, she couldn’t hold it any longer after taking the medicine. Yan Yuan helped him lie down. , stroking Ning Zhiyu’s delicate eyebrows with her fingertips.
Seeing his absent-minded appearance, Ning Zhiyu endured exhaustion and asked, “A Yuan, do you have something on your mind?”
Yan Yuan was silent for a while, looked at Ning Zhiyu, and summoned the courage to say, “A Yu…I have something on my mind. I want to ask you what you mean.”
“If you’re not happy about it… forget it.”
Ning Zhiyu’s intuition was not very good, but she still laughed: “What’s the matter?”
“Tell me, I I won’t be unhappy.”
Yan Yuan rarely has such an uneasy time: “Don’t you always wonder why the medicine you take is so precious and hard to find.”
“Actually, it can’t be found from the cliff at all. The thing that came, that thing can only be found in a deep pool of ten thousand feet.”
“I was afraid to scare you before, so I didn’t tell you the truth.”
“Your medicine guide is not herbal… but dragon scales.”
“Dragon scales ?…” Ning Zhiyu said in surprise.
Yan Yuan decided to tell the whole story: “Well.”
“On the wedding night, you suddenly fell ill and your life was in danger. The imperial physicians were helpless. At this time, Zong Hua told me that there is a mysterious dragon in the thousand-year-old lake at the foot of Jinghua Mountain. Dragon Heart is used as medicine…it can cure all diseases.”
“Apart from this method, I don’t know how I can wake you up. I can only use a dead horse as a living horse doctor. I took the monk to Gutan the next day and wanted to capture Xuanlong alive. I stumbled into the bottom of the pool by mistake.”
“It’s strange… It’s clearly the bottom of the water, but people can breathe freely. I think it was Xuanlong’s spell.” Yan Yuan said here, as if recalling something beautiful. As if, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously, and soon after the words disappeared, he became a little depressed.
“I thought he was as cruel as the rumors of the rivers and lakes. Who knew that he was cold in appearance, but he was very gentle to me. I took this opportunity to pretend to like him, tricked him into returning to the palace, and asked him to draw dragon scales for you to use as medicine.
” I wanted to dig into his heart while he was sleeping, but I couldn’t bear it. He had no grievances or hatred with me, just because his flesh and blood can save people, must he die? I can’t do it.”
“So, I can only use The name of love kept coaxing him… Get the dragon scales from him, and use the dragon scales to suppress your illness.”
“Later, he found out that I didn’t love him at all, I was lying to him, and left.”
“This When I went back out of the palace, I just went to find him for dragon scales, but I was assassinated again and lost my life… He saved me.”
“So what?…” Ning Zhiyu knew what Yan Yuan was going to say next. , is the point.
“If it weren’t for him… I would be dead.” Yan Yuan’s confidence was not enough.
“I don’t think he should give him so much in vain… Since he likes me and is willing to stay by my side, I just thought, give him a name and make him a concubine.”
Ning Zhiyu felt that Yan Yuan might be crazy Now, that’s a demon, and whether it’s true or not, just what he said is incredible enough: “You want to make a demon a concubine?…”
Yan Yuan hurriedly explained: “Although he is a demon, but He has a mild temperament and is no different from a human race.”
“Don’t worry, even if I made him a concubine, the person I love the most is still you.”
Ning Zhiyu frowned slowly: “For thousands of years, the monsters rumored in the market are all evil and devilish, and they like to eat flesh and blood. Does he have any purpose when he stays by your side…”
“No! What purpose can he have?” , he just loves me, that’s why he is willing to pull his scales to save you.” Yan Yuan didn’t like Ning Zhiyu’s words about Xuanlong.
Ning Zhiyu looked at Yan Yuan as if she didn’t know him: “A Yuan, are you in love with him?”
“I don’t! The person I love has always been you.” Yan Yuan blurted out.
“If it wasn’t to cure your illness, why would I take such great pains to keep him here? Concubine Concubine’s actions are to stabilize him, and secondly, I feel guilty for treating him… at most, at most only I like it a little bit.”
“Really.” Ning Zhiyu looked back.
“Well.”
“Then you…then do you agree?” Yan Yuan finally turned to Ning Zhiyu, taking into account his feelings.
“If you don’t agree, I will find an excuse to prevaricate it. Anyway, he is a deceiver, so it won’t be anything.”
