Binding the Dragon for the Empress - Chapter 62
[Chapter sixty-two]
The robe draped over his shoulders slipped to the ground, Xuanlong stood up with difficulty and walked towards the bed with his own strength.
He didn’t want to show weakness in front of Yan Yuan, although he walked slowly, his pace was still steady.
Yan Yuan picked up the black robe on the ground and chased after it.
Xuanlong bent down and found a white porcelain bottle in the dark compartment beside the bed. He has been suffering from abdominal pains recently. The last medicine Shengxin gave him last time has few pills left. He poured two pills into the palm of his hand, and awkwardly placed The extra grain was carefully put back into the narrow mouth of the bottle.
“What are you eating?”
Xuanlong had already swallowed the medicine when Yan Yuan passed by, lying on the bed with his back to Yan Yuan.
“…”
Xuanlong seemed unwilling to pay attention to him, curled up slightly and did not move.
Yan Yuan threw the black robe in her arms, opened the hidden compartment and took out the small white porcelain bottle. She frowned and said, “What is this?”
“I’ll throw it away if you don’t tell me.” I
don’t know if it was because the medicine was too much. He developed resistance to the medicine, and the pain in his abdomen did not diminish at all. Xuanlong turned around vaguely, propped himself up to grab it, and said in a low voice, “Give it back to me.”
Yan Yuan held up the medicine bottle and was about to fall.
Xuanlong frowned slightly, his strange green eyes looked at him, and he didn’t move. That look was like looking at a mischievous child.
Seeing her guilty conscience, Yan Yuan put down her hands and said sternly: “I said, I hate that you have something to hide from me.”
Xuanlong heaved a sigh of relief and lay down: “You didn’t tell me honestly either.”
“So now you are Are you going through the old accounts with me?” Yan Yuan raised her eyebrows.
“I know I’m not qualified.” Xuanlong closed his eyes, and all his emotions were hidden.
He said this, but Yan Yuan couldn’t continue to pick on him. She sat down beside the bed, looked at the man’s heroic face, and said, “It’s not unqualified, you are my person anyway.”
“…”
Yan Yuan wanted to please him, grabbed Xuanlong’s yellow-painted sleeve, flipped out the little wooden figurine that was bigger than a slap, took a few glances in her hand, and said.
“Since this is the birthday gift you’re going to give me, then I’ll take it with a grain of salt.”
Xuanlong opened his eyes and looked at the person beside him who was handsome Ruo Yuehua: “…It’s not ready yet.”
“It’s okay, so I I like it very much.” Yan Yuan held up the wooden figure and smiled warmly.
He didn’t seem to have smiled at him like that in a long time.
Xuanlong was naturally happy, and looked away uncomfortably. In fact, every time Yan Yuan begged him, she would be extra gentle, and he knew this for a long time.
He told himself not to care, anyway, there was not much time to live, why should he care about the things that made him sad.
As long as Yan Yuan is willing to accept their child… that’s enough.
The rest are not important.
“What do you want me to do?” Xuanlong heard his low voice and sounded in the hall.
Yan Yuan was obviously stunned, as if how did you know I had something to say.
After being relatively speechless for a moment, Yan Yuan opened her mouth.
“I think…you kill someone for me.”
Xuanlong looked at him sideways, and moved his lips: “Who.”
“My brother, Yan Weiheng.” Yan Yuan’s eyes gradually became cloudy. “He is not satisfied with a million military power, he has repeatedly sent people to assassinate me, and wants to replace him.”
“No matter how strong Yan Weiheng’s martial arts are, he is just a mere mortal. Kill him while he’s not prepared.”
He didn’t know, Xuanlong had been scattered for ten thousand years, and he couldn’t even fly in avatar, and he couldn’t use the invisibility technique again.
Xuanlong was silent for a long time, then said:
“…Okay, I’ll help you.”
“Bento…is your first birthday present.”
Yan Yuan approached him in a good mood and asked, “How many gifts do you have for me?”
“Only two.” Xuanlong knew that Yan Kitten didn’t like the wooden man, so it didn’t count.
“There is one more…”
Yan Yuan was not interested at all, interrupting Xuanlong: “Then leave a suspense and tell me when you come back.”
“He arrives in Chang’an tomorrow, you go to ambush outside the city tomorrow morning and take the opportunity to make a move. Right. ”
“Yes.” Xuanlong replied.
“It’s useful for you to keep the inner alchemy, at least it can remove the thorn in my eyes.”
Yan Yuan was thinking about Ning Zhiyu, and she left after her goal was achieved.
Xuanlong has long been accustomed to Yan Yuan’s fluctuating heat and cold. He is not in good spirits and always wants to sleep, so he has no time to think wildly.
In the middle of the night, there were thunderstorms outside the window, Xuanlong woke up in a cold sweat, his calf spasmed so badly that he couldn’t fall asleep after waking up in pain, he picked up the unfinished wooden figurine at the head of the bed and rubbed it in his hands.
Yan Yuan said that she liked his birthday gift, but she didn’t take it with her when she left. When he was in front of him, he didn’t even know how to act like a show, so that people could see the flaws at a glance.
There is a raised wooden button in the dark compartment at the head of the bed. After pressing it, there are still layers of small dark compartments.
This is the side hall, and Yan Yuan’s things are not usually placed here, so Xuanlong has always been using it.
Yan Yuan wasn’t interested in him, so she wouldn’t know how many things he was hiding in secret.
The sky was lit up outside the window, Xuanlong took the blood-colored jade bottle from the hidden dark compartment, poured out the only blood-colored pill in it, and swallowed it with his head up.
This is the Lingxuan Pill, which can restore the spiritual power of a demon who has lost his way in a short period of time. Although it is very small, it is enough for him to use the invisibility technique to remove a mortal.
The side effect is that after the effect of the drug wears off, his soul power will be weakened at a doubling rate within a day, his lifespan will be shortened, and the severe pain in his body will double when it attacks.
This was originally sent by the medical saint to protect himself.
If he found out that Yan Yuan was going to be unfavorable to him, he took the Lingxuan Pill and transformed into his original body and flew away from the palace.
In fact, when Xuan Long decided to return to the palace with Yan Yuan, he was not ready to leave. He hoped that in his last days, he would spend his last days with Yan Yuan and his children.
Even if that person doesn’t love him at all.
Xuanlong closed the hidden drawer. He was dressed in a mysterious robe, wearing a black gauze hat, and passed through the closed temple door invisibly.
The sky was gray and the rain had been intermittent and almost never stopped. Xuanlong shuttled through the rain and fog and flew out of the city.
From the palace to the outside of the city, it only took a few breaths.
Xuanlong transformed into a human form and landed on a towering tree, leaning on the sturdy branches and panting lowly, the fetus in his belly moved unsteadily, causing him pain when he hit him, obviously feeling that his nutrients were rapidly increasing. Consumption, not happy.
Xuanlong Binglu’s eyes showed softness, and he raised his hand to caress the slightly bulging belly under his robe, and said warmly, “You have to be good…”
If your father is not by your side in the future, you must listen to that person’s words.
His temperament is impatient, if you make him angry, maybe he won’t want you…
This little thing is so naughty in his belly, Xuanlong is naturally worried, but he should not understand these words now. , maybe when he’s older, he’ll be able to listen.
I don’t know if he was tired or for some other reason, but after a while, the little thing quieted down, curled up into a ball in his belly, and didn’t move.
There was no one on the muddy official road. Xuanlong looked at the hazy mountain range in the distance and whispered to the little thing in his belly.
“When I return to the palace tonight, I will tell him that we have you.”
“You said… will he be happy?”
Yuan was muttering to himself, but he didn’t expect the little thing to consciously bump the palm of his hand on his stomach. Xuanlong was slightly stunned, lowered his head, and the corners of his lips curved awkwardly.
“Although he doesn’t like me, but you are his child… He shouldn’t hate you.”
“I shouldn’t…” There were
suddenly chaotic footsteps from behind the woods.
“Catch that fox!”
“Quick! Whoever catches him will be able to get the abbot of the Repentance Temple to chant the scriptures, and after he dies, he will ascend to the ranks of the immortal class!”
Xuanlong looked down and saw a white fox Quickly rushing over from the bushes, the fox’s originally snow-white, soft and beautiful fur was covered with blood and mud, and several parts of the flesh were turned up, and as they fled, they trembled to reveal the bright red flesh under the fur.
The rain washed over his body, making him look even more embarrassed.
Xuanlong was stunned: “Querle…”
The fox seemed to hear the murmur from the tree, then stopped after realizing it, and raised his ice blue eyes to look up.
Xuanlong’s mind was blank, and he flew down from the tree.
The fox transformed into a human figure and fell to the ground weakly. His blue robe was tattered and mottled with blood, and the snow-white skin was covered with ambiguous traces of cyan and purple. It seemed that his mind was not clear, and he looked at Xuanlong in fear. , kept shaking.
“Don’t come here…don’t come here…”
“Don’t hit me…”
Xuanlong walked over and pulled away his hands covering his head, feeling extremely uncomfortable: “Qule…it’s me…”
“I’m Hanbo… “…” It’s
hard to imagine the kind of abuse Querle has endured. His utterly beautiful face is no longer splendid. There are several light red marks scratched with a knife on his face, and the corners of his mouth are black and swollen. There was only horror in his eyes.
“Han Bo…” Qu Le stared at Xuan Long, and it took a long time to recognize him, tears welling up in his eyes. “Apo…”
“It’s me.” Xuanlong squatted in front of him and touched his face. “Don’t be afraid… I’ll be fine, I’ll take you away.”
“Where have you been?” A big tear fell from Qu Le’s face. It was also vague, Xuanlong found that a small section of his tongue had been cut off, the wound was new, and the teeth were covered with blood.
“I made dinner that day, and found you were gone… Then I went out to look for you, no matter what… I couldn’t find it…”
“It’s alright…” Xuanlong raised his hand to wipe away his tears and wiped away the mist. Le embraced him and patted his trembling body. “It’s alright…”
Seeing that the footsteps were getting closer, Xuanlong picked up Qu Le and flew away.
Halfway back to the palace, Querue couldn’t hold back and fainted. His hair was messy against his face, and his breath was weak. Xuanlong felt that he had no spiritual power, and his inner elixir was no longer there.
Xuanlong took him back to the Qiankun Palace, put the Que Le on the bed, and ordered someone to send warm water in.
He was soaked all over and his clothes were too torn into his eyes, so Xuanlong retreated for him. While wiping his body, he found that the wounds on Qu Le’s face were nothing compared to his body.
