Binding the Dragon for the Empress

The door of the temple was opened from the inside, and a thin man in black clothes appeared in sight. The man's long hair fell down his body like a waterfall, and he wore a half dark gold mask on his right face. He had the same green eyes as himself, deep and deep. It was lonely and cold, but Ah Zhi didn't feel alienated.

Clearly, he had only met his mother in a hurry, and seeing his real mother standing in front of him at this time, Ah Zhi inexplicably had a strong urge to cry.

He thought about his mother for too long.

When he was in the human world, he thought that his mother would show up earlier, so that his father would not be so sad, and he would not always be drunk and cry while hugging him, and he would be able to have his own love like the children next to him. Mother.

"Mother..." Ah Zhi looked up at Xuanlong and called in a very low voice.

The little man is wearing a light blue brocade robe, his hair is neatly tied in a jade crown, his soft little face is rosy, although he has the same ice green pupils and dragon horns as Xuanlong, his eyebrows and eyes are like swallows. Kite, exquisite and beautiful, looks very well-behaved.

Thinking back to the time when the child was born in the prison and passed away without even giving him a good hug, the child was already so big in a blink of an eye, and he had not fulfilled half of the responsibility of raising him, Xuanlong was inevitably sad in his heart.

It was his first time as a parent, he had no experience, and he had been away for too long, so he was quite worried that he would not make his children happy. Fortunately, he had a calm temperament, no matter how turbulent his emotions were, he would not lose control and scare the children.

Release the door, slowly squat down in front of the little man, and said with a jerky smile.

"... Ah Zhi."

"These years have been pretty good."

Ah Zhi nodded, then shook his head with red eyes.

Xuan Long's heart tightened, and he was about to ask why he shook his head, when Ah Zhi stepped forward and buried his whole body in his arms, hugging his waist, "Mother... Both Ah Zhi and Father miss you."

"Father is always crying."

A muffled voice came from his arms, Xuanlong's figure stiffened slightly, and then he gently wrapped his arms around the little man's body.

It seems that Ah Zhi was well-raised by Yan Yuan, he was clean and looked good, so he shouldn't have received any harsh treatment, but when Ah Zhi was still in his womb, Yan Yuan scolded him one by one, Xuan Long didn't Way not to worry.

"...He treats you well."

Ah Zhi withdrew from Xuanlong's embrace in a daze: "Mother, do you mean Father?"

"Ah."

Ah Zhi thought for a while, and sadness appeared in his ice-green pupils: "Father is the best person in the world to Ah Zhi, but he is always very unhappy."

Xuanlong lost his mind: "Why?"

Long Xin has been given to Yan Yuan, Ning Zhiyu will be saved, what else can he be unhappy about.

Is the dragon heart invalid? ...

"Because Father misses you." Ah Zhi said hoarsely.

Xuan Longquan took it as a child's nonsense, and didn't take it to heart.He and Yan Yuan may have had love in the past, but they were all ruined by the reality in the mortal world. Yan Yuan got a real lover, so why would she miss him.

Discord between parents is a big harm to children, Xuanlong didn't want to expose it, so he changed the subject, led Ah Zhi into the hall, and asked Lianbi to take out the snacks he had prepared earlier.

Ah Zhi sat on Xuanlong's lap, took a piece of peach blossom cake from the plate on the table, stretched out his short arms and brought it to Xuanlong's lips: "Mother, eat."

Xuanlong raised his hand to take it, and said with a slight smile, "Okay."

Just now when Xuanlong opened the door, Yan Yuan had already left. Ah Zhiji was worried about his father's body, and they didn't even bother to ask why Xuanlong left. After eating a few soft cakes, they said: " Mother, Father said that when you come back, our family of three will be reunited, why do you and Father live separately now?"

When he was in the mortal world, his father said that the side hall he lived in was where his mother used to live, and his father was clearly unwilling to leave for a moment. side hall.

"I lived separately from him."

It was difficult for Xuanlong to explain the complexity to Ah Zhi, he thought such a young child didn't understand anything.

Biansheng Ah Zhi looked at him with those red peach blossom eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Do you not like him anymore..."

"Father just sent me to the door and left, he didn't dare to come in to see mother."

Xuanlong's throat moved slightly, and he said dryly: "A Zhi, no matter what happens between me and your father, you are still my child."

"Is that so..." Ah Zhi twisted his body, visibly lost.

Xuanlong is the worst at coaxing people, not even children, seeing that the little man is upset, his heart tightens, so he has to tell him to eat more pastries.

Ah Zhi had something to hide in his heart, he had no appetite, stayed in Xuanjiang Hall for lunch, and then said he was going back, Xuanlong wanted to keep him, but he couldn't find a reason, so he had to send him back to Dongji Hall in person.

Arriving outside Yanyuan's palace, Ah Zhi didn't go in immediately, he turned around and looked at Xuanlong, hesitant to speak: "Mother...Father, he..."

"What's wrong?" Xuanlong asked in a low voice.

Ah Zhi met his eyes for a moment, then shook his head in despair: "It's nothing."

Xuanlong could only remain silent.

The magic soldiers guarding outside the hall were retreated for some reason. Ah Zhi turned around, raised his hand slowly to touch the door, and was about to go in, but he didn't use any force. He turned his head with red eyes, and he was about to cry.

"Mother..."

"Father seems to be ill... Do you want to go in with Ah Zhi to see him?"

Xuan Long: "...someone will take care of him."

As the Emperor of Heaven, Yan Yuan has strong luck, so if she is sick, it should be just a minor illness, not to mention that there are so many people around him, so there is no need for him to see it.

He went but was redundant.

"But no one is more important than mother..." No one knows better than Ah Zhi how painful Yan Yuan is after losing Xuanlong.The emperor's eagerness to see his mother must be no less than his own, but he dared not even meet his mother.

Ah Zhi didn't understand why.

His mother's silence made him feel very sad, he was not a man of strong character, so he said Ah Zhi and went in first, then turned and entered the palace gate.

When the figure of the little man disappeared from sight, Xuanlong stood quietly on the spot for a long time, lowered his eyes desolately, and left incognito.

The hall was quiet, Ah Zhi tentatively used the sound transmission technique to call his father twice, telling Yan Yuan that he was back, but no one agreed.

Clearly sensing that the aura of his father was here, Ah Zhi ran into the inner hall in a panic, and saw his father in white lying peacefully on the bed, his high-hanging heart was about to let go, when his father suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood .Yan Yuan opened her bloodshot eyes, propped herself up on the bed and sat up, clutching her lips and coughing until her whole body trembled.

Blood dripped from the fingers, and more blood flowers appeared on the white skirt along with the cracked wound on the chest. Yan Yuan guessed that Ah Zhi would not come back today, but when she raised her head in a daze, she saw A pale little face.

"Azhi...?" Yan Yuan was still a little overwhelmed.

"Why did you come back so soon... Where is your mother?"

Ah Zhi crawled from the edge of the bed to the bed, raised his sleeve to wipe the blood from Yan Yuan's lips, tears welled up in his eyes: "Father...what's wrong with you, don't scare Ah Zhi, Ah Zhi is afraid."

"Are you sick again like before?..."

After returning from Xuanjiang Hall in the morning, Yan Yuan fell into a coma after returning to the bedroom. She didn't even have time to ask the Immortal Doctor to treat her wound. She didn't expect the child to come back suddenly.

Yan Yuan was annoyed in her heart, but her face was calm, she smiled and pulled away Ah Zhi's hand, and raised her sleeve to wipe her lips: "No, Ah Zhi, don't worry, it's just a small injury, please let the medical fairy take care of it." Alright, Father will be fine."

"Then...then Ah Zhi, go and ask Father for an Immortal Doctor." As Ah Zhi said, he was about to climb out of the bed, but Yan Yuan hugged his small body to stop him: "Father, just use the sound transmission formula."

Ah Zhi was indeed worried about leaving Yan Yuan alone in the bedroom, which was why he was in a hurry to come back.

Seeing Yan Yuan pinching the sound transmission formula, Ah Zhi felt relieved for the time being, and used illusion to conjure a basin of clear water and a soft cloth. After wringing it out, he took the cloth in his small hand and gently wiped the dried blood on Yan Yuan's face.

Ah Zhi is so well-behaved, Yan Yuan feels uncomfortable looking at it, if he really fails to survive the punishment, what will Ah Zhi do.

"Why don't you stay longer with mother?"

Ah Zhi was silent for a moment, and looked at Yan Yuan: "Father, did you and mother have a fight?..."

"No." Yan Yuan smiled.

"Then why didn't mother come to see you?... Ah Zhi told mother that father is ill." Ah Zhi's soft voice was very hoarse. The pain of others.

Yan Yuan: "It's not that the father and mother quarreled, it's that the father did something wrong...that made your mother angry."

"What's wrong?..." Ah Zhi couldn't understand the bitterness in Yan Yuan's eyes.

Yan Yuan lowered her eyes: "It's an unforgivable thing."

Ah Zhi touched Yan Yuan's face, and comforted him: "Then Ah Zhi, go and apologize to Father, okay?"

Yan Yuan smiled wryly and shook her head: "It's useless..."

"A Zhi only needs to remember that no matter what choice your mother made, it is right. Ah Zhi cannot blame him or resent him, because it was the mother who gave birth to Ah Zhi so that Ah Zhi could come to this world safely. , let Hao Hao Ah Zhi live..."

"The wrong person is the father..."

Even though Yan Yuan hated her former self extremely, he still couldn't make him expose his evil deeds to Ah Zhi without reservation.

He was afraid that Ah Zhi, who was immersed in the illusion of his parents' love, would be hurt, and that Ah Zhi, who trusted him, would hate him. He looked at him with extremely disappointed eyes and asked him how he could do such a cruel thing.

Even he didn't know...how could he do such a cruel thing to Xuanlong.

It would be a good thing if death could take away hatred.

"Ah Zhi remember... Father, please don't cry." Seeing Father's sadness, Ah Zhi raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes. "A Zhi is obedient."

Yan Yuan caressed the little man's dragon horns, and said with a smile, "That's good, Ah Zhi."

"In the future, when your father is not by your side...you must listen to your mother, be filial, and be considerate of your mother as you are for your father. You must love your mother more than you love your father."

Ah Zhi was stunned and said: "Why is Father Emperor not by Ah Zhi's side?..."

"Because father is the emperor of heaven, he has many things to do, and there will be times when he will not be by Ah Zhi's side in the future." Yan Yuan's smile showed no flaws.

"Okay, Ah Zhi agrees to the father."

at the same time.

Xuanlong appeared in front of Xuanjiang Hall, looked up, and saw a person standing beside the hall door.

That person was wearing a light blue silk silk robe, with outstanding demeanor and a pure appearance, he was the God Lord Yiling.

"General, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
