emperor and dragon

The next day, Long Rui came to the Imperial Garden.He just sat blankly in the gazebo, looking in the direction of the Qianzheng Hall from afar.Thinking of all that happened yesterday, I couldn't help but sigh again.

Suddenly, two people walked towards Long Rui, and Long Rui didn't notice until they walked in front of Long Rui.Long Rui looked up, only to find that it was An Biling and Liu Huanhuan.

An Biling was dragged here by Liu Huanhuan abruptly.They tacitly knew the purpose of Liu Huanhuan's trip, and it was just a chance encounter.

"I see An Jieyu, Liu Jieyu."

"Long Shi doesn't need to be too polite."

"The orchid on An Jieyu's head is very unique and looks even more elegant." Long Rui praised without hesitation.If it is not necessary in the palace, it is better to establish a good relationship with the empresses of the palaces.

"Huan Huan picked this, but the concubine thinks Long Shi is more suitable!" This was just a joke, Long Rui was helpless.Is this a small revenge for yesterday's threat?

"Then I'll pick it up for you." Liu Huanhuan picked up the long skirt and walked out quickly, not even hearing Long Rui's hasty "no need".

Seeing Liu Huanhuan picking orchids, Long Rui and An Biling looked at each other and sighed in unison.But the two lamented differently, Long Rui lamented that things had gotten worse, while An Biling lamented that Liu Huanhuan was crazy about love.

Unknowingly, the relationship between An Biling and Long Rui eased. It was not like Long Rui's tit-for-tat yesterday, nor was An Biling's tension yesterday.Just because of sympathy for each other, unconsciously, they became like friends.

This scene was seen by Xue Chan who came unexpectedly.Originally, he came to look for Long Rui.Because he knew that if Long Rui was fine, he would come to sit in this gazebo.Unexpectedly, he saw An Biling and Long Rui talking with a smile.

That scene was particularly glaring to Xue Chan.He didn't know the reason for all this, but he felt very uncomfortable, so he turned his head and left.

After Xue Chan left, Liu Huanhuan ran up to Long Rui and put the orchids he had just picked on Long Rui's head with his own hands.

Liu Huanhuan and An Biling lamented, they didn't notice at first, it turns out that Long Shi is such a beautiful person, and against Lan, he doesn't look feminine, but only gives people a sense of modesty and gentleman.

An Biling sighed in her heart, such a beloved person, how could she not have a chance... Who is she sighing for?For Long Rui, but also for Xue Chan.

In the afternoon, Long Rui came to the imperial study. His task in the afternoon was basically to help Xue Chan review the memorials. Today, Xue Chan was exceptionally silent and depressed for a whole afternoon, until after dinner, Xiao Shunzi broke into a cold sweat. Full back, finally ended the longest silence in 13 years.Xiao Shunzi followed Xue Chan very early, and this was the first time he saw the two of them like this. Although he knew the reason, he could only sigh aside.

"Xiangliu, help me watch the night today." Xue Chan's first sentence made Long Rui stand there like petrified.

After Xiao Shunzi was surprised, he could only shake his head helplessly.Your Majesty, do you know that if you do this, you will break this person's heart!Your Majesty, even if Long Shi promises to be by your side forever, the hearts of all things in the world are not invincible.

Long Rui didn't talk to him, and he didn't pay attention to where Xue Chan was going. When he came back to his senses, Long Rui found that he was already standing outside Zilinju.

Long Ruitan: Nagasawa, Nagasawa, are you trying to tell me not to mess with your woman?Did you misunderstand what happened that day?I just, I just want to find someone for you who can share your worries and don't need your love.Is this also my fault?If this is your punishment for being too close to your concubine.OK, I accept.And you really hurt me.

Nagasawa... I love you.

The night is as cold as water, whose heart hurts?This night, my heart is alone and speechless.

Long Rui looked at the night sky.It's fine if we can't be together, it's fine, a lifetime is actually not that long, right?Should be right...

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Huanhuan: Brother Long, send you orchids!

Long Rui: Thank you.

Xue Chan: Xiangliu, what flowers do you like?I'll pick it up for you.

Long Rui: No, I don't like flowers very much.

Xue Chan (fried hair): Then you accept that Liu Huanhuan's flowers again!

Long Rui: I didn't take it back either.

Xue Chan (angry): You still want to get it back!

Long Rui (Shun Mao): When you go to the Imperial Garden, you never touch the flowers, nor get close to them.So I know you can't smell those flowers that are too fragrant and turn red when you touch those pink hands or something.That's why I dare not take it back and let you pick it.

Xue Chan: stay together...

Long Rui: What's the matter, Nagasawa?

Xue Chan (hugging tightly): I love you to death!

Long Rui (blushing): ...I love you too.

Guoguo: The above is purely a show of love between the young couple outside the play, please ignore →_→

Long and Xue: Rehabilitate me quickly, we are in love!

Guoguo: Since the goods have been shipped, there will be no refunds!See if I'm not in the show, you two are always showing affection in front of me, a lonely and widowed person who kills thousands of knives!

Long and Xue: Beat him!

Guoguo: Help...

☆, 7

In the morning, when Xue Chan tied up her hair and tidied up her clothes under the wait of An Biling, she left Zilinju, and saw Long Rui standing beside her.Xue Chan suddenly felt a little unbearable in his heart. After 13 years of companionship, it is impossible to say that he has no feelings. Yesterday, maybe it was just out of breath.However, Long Rui didn't say anything, as if he wasn't the one who received such insult yesterday.Xue Chan knew Long Rui's affection, so he couldn't respond, but thinking about it now, what he did yesterday seems to be too much.

But if Long Rui didn't say anything, Xue Chan couldn't open his mouth and bow his head first.

In the end, he could only say: "Xiangliu, let's go to court with me today."

Long Rui raised his head to look at Xue Chan, looked at the person he loved, even if this person hurt him deeply, he still couldn't make up his mind to speak ill of this person, but he didn't want to talk about what happened yesterday. All kinds of things, so I can only say nothing.

Morning?Long Rui thought that he hadn't been there for a long time, and it was time to cooperate with Xue Chan to give some deterrence to those courtiers who were blinded by wind and greed.

Seeing Long Rui nodding his head to express his understanding, Xue Chan breathed a sigh of relief for some reason. He felt that Long Rui would still agree, which meant that Long Rui had no estrangement with him.

An Biling stood at the door of Zilinju, taking in everything that happened just now.Suddenly, she felt that Long Rui was miserable.The clumsiness of the one he loves makes Long Rui unable to see the heart of the one he loves clearly. That clumsy person doesn't even understand himself. How can Long Rui, who is also in the game, see clearly?An Biling thought that if she saw Long Rui again next time, she would tell him.Some small hope is always better than waiting in vain.

"The flood of the Fanhe River is getting worse, why are the ministers ignoring it, are they ignoring the common people in the world!" Xue Chan sat on the throne, looking down at the officials below, not angry and pretentious.

No one answered below, Xue Chan couldn't help being annoyed, no one worried about the common people in the world, who would bear the responsibility when the boat was overturned in one day.

"Dragon Attendant."

"The minister is here." Long Rui stood up and waited for the emperor's order.

"Immediately go to Fanhe River to control the flood in three days, and I will give you a gold token. Seeing this token is like seeing my widow personally." Xue Chan ordered Xiao Shunzi to hand over the token to Long Rui.

"Sir, obey the order."

"Immediately go to Fanhe River to control the flood in three days, and I will give you a gold token. Seeing this token is like seeing my widow personally." Xue Chan ordered Xiao Shunzi to hand over the token to Long Rui.

"Sir, obey the order."

Fan River, one of the borders between Khitan and Xiliang.The border between Khitan and Xiliang, from west to east, is Mohai Thirteen Cities, Tengyin River, Chiyi Sea, Fan River, Chongming River, and Weihai.As for Fanhe, in the first year of Tianrun, the Khitan people believed that the new emperor ascended the throne and his foundation was unstable, which was the best opportunity for a sneak attack, so the Khitan king Yelu Shulan personally led the army to attack Fanhe.

The outside world may not know it, but in the palace, everyone knows that the general who repelled the Khitan's 15 troops with [-] troops was not Tang Tian and Tang Shen Gang, but the confused master who was cast aside by the world in front of the ministers. Beloved, Long Shi Long Rui.

Prime Minister Kong Ling Kong Beilin looked at Long Rui. From Kong Ling's point of view, this dragon attendant seemed to be the real dragon's bodyguard, solving all difficult problems for the emperor, just like this man named Long Rui in the 25th year of Yinzheng. People exhausted more than 3 troops of the eldest prince Xue Mo and Xue Zitan. With this last straw, the first prince's faction was crushed, and Tang Shengang won the subsequent battle easily, and Xue Chan went smoothly. Ascension to the throne of God shocked all the bystanders at that time.

As for the Battle of Fanhe, Xiliang did not win, nor did it fail.Originally there was a large disparity in military strength, Xiliang would definitely be defeated, but the reason for the peace between the two sides was that Long Rui single-handedly went to the Khitan camp, hijacked the Khitan king, and forced the Khitan king to agree to the peace between the two sides and retreated.

Although this matter sounds like a fantasy, it is an irrefutable fact that actually happened.

Therefore, in the eyes of all the officials, Long Shi is a contradictory body. With such excellent abilities, he is willing to submit to a man. Although he is the emperor, it is still unbelievable.

Soon, news of Long Shi's preparation to leave the palace reached the ears of all the concubines in the harem.

Liu Huanhuan found Long Rui at the gazebo in the imperial garden. At that time, Long Rui was tasting the cakes brought to him by the imperial dining room.After all, the only one in the palace that the palace people can find that is reasonable and suitable for etiquette is the Dragon Attendant.

"Are you leaving?" Hearing these words, Long Rui raised his head and saw Liu Huanhuan standing in front of him.

Long Rui was about to stand up and salute, when he heard Liu Huanhuan's voice that seemed to be distraught: "You don't need to salute, you just need to tell me if it's okay!"

Long Ruiyiyan didn't stand up, nodded: "Yes, in three days, I will go to Fanhe to treat the patient."

Afterwards, Long Rui thought Liu Huanhuan would say something, but he was silent for a long time and waited for a long time, and he didn't see Liu Huanhuan speak. When Long Rui thought that Liu Huanhuan would not speak again, he was stunned when he heard Liu Huanhuan say something Words: "Long Rui, I like you."

Long Rui was stunned for a moment, then immediately looked at Liu Huanhuan: "Jieyu, you know that such words are not allowed in the palace."

"I didn't talk nonsense," Liu Huanhuan shook his head, "I know, I know who you love, and I know that you won't love me, but I just can't help it... I fell in love with you."

Long Rui could only remain silent. He could not respond to this affection, nor could he respond. If he responded, it would harm both of them.

Liu Huanhuan didn't care about Long Rui's silence, and continued: "I don't care if I like me or not, I just want you to know... Long Rui, can you tell me your name?"

After saying the last sentence, Liu Huanhuan felt that she had no strength at all. It took a lot of courage for her daughter to say such a sentence, and even in the eyes of thousands of people, it was a shameless act.If a man's character is known to a woman, even if he is not a wife, he can be regarded as an important person, so Liu Huanhuan wants to know.Even if you can't be this person's woman, even if you can't get this person's love, but if you can be special to this person, if you can...

Long Rui didn't want to say it at first, but when he saw Liu Huanhuan's eyes, he recalled the little boy in front of 13 who stood by the pool and looked at him without fear. At that time, the boy's eyes That's it, disappointment, but hope.

At that time, Xue Chan heard from a Buddhist monk that there was a dragon living in the nameless cold pool of Yutai Mountain. Holding on to this last hope, Xue Chan went to Yutai Mountain.so that everything after that happens.

"My name is Xiangliu, Long Xiangliu." The erratic Long Rui still said.

He saw Liu Huanhuan's bright eyes.

He didn't quite remember what Liu Huanhuan said afterwards, but he only remembered that Liu Huanhuan said at the end that when he came back, she had something very important to tell him.

Long Rui sighed, he no longer knew if it was right to do so, and if it would distort his fate, but it shouldn't be worse than it is now...

Three days later, Long Rui set off.

An Biling didn't go to see him off, and neither did anyone.Xue Chan sat in the imperial study and watched the memorial in silence.

And what about An Biling?She was thinking about the conversation with Long Rui that day, and she wanted to tell Long Rui about that.The day before Long Rui's departure, she visited Long Rui once.She only spoke half of what she had said before being interrupted by Long Rui, who only heard Long Rui tell her to stop. At that time, she understood, it's not that she didn't know, it wasn't that he didn't know.It's not that he didn't know the emperor's clumsiness, he had guessed it, but the emperor let him down time and time again, and fell into the abyss beyond redemption.This person should have guessed it, and it is because of guessing that it is painful.Because he had to pretend not to know, to paralyze himself, because if he knew, the wound in his heart that could never be healed would become bigger and bigger...

That's right, so what if we know, if it is revealed, it will make both of them suffer.So this man named Long Rui chose the path that only caused him pain.But Long Rui never thought, where did his happiness and happiness go?

On the other side, in the Yuanshuang Pavilion, a woman was sitting at the table with something embroidered on her hand, which looked like a sachet.She put down the things in her hands after embroidering for a while, walked to the window, looked at everything outside the window, and murmured vaguely: "How long can this body last..."

There is nothing wrong with love, and there is nothing wrong with not loving, it's just that he fell in love with someone who shouldn't be loved at the wrong time, and it will never be over again.

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Xue Chan: stay together, don't go...

Long Rui: I am going to help you deal with the flood.

Xue Chan: stay together, don't go...

Long Rui: I'll help you fight the enemy!

Xue Chan: stay together, don't go...

Long Rui: I just want to go to the toilet...
