Binding the Dragon for the Empress

"You are the emperor, you should have three thousand beauties in the harem, why ask me if I agree with this kind of thing." Ning Zhiyu closed her eyes, with a smile on her lips. "As long as you're happy."

Seeing him like this, Yan Yuan suddenly felt very uncomfortable. In her previous life, this person died because of herself, and in this life she didn't treat him wholeheartedly.

"Ayu..."

Ning Zhiyu closed her eyes and didn't respond to him, Yan Yuan was silent for a moment, and said guiltily.

"If you're not happy, forget it, let him be a nameless person by my side, and you will treat him as if he doesn't exist, and I will never treat you any less because of him."

"OK?"

"Okay." Ning Zhiyu said.

Yan Yuan was afraid that he would be overwhelmed, so she continued: "You can survive only by his flesh and blood... When the dragon scales are finished, ask him to continue to pull them out for you."

"En." Ning Zhiyu responded.

"Are you sleepy?" Yan Yuan reached for his hand on the brocade quilt and shook it. "Sleep when you're sleepy, I'll wait until you're asleep before leaving."

Ning Zhiyu didn't speak again.

Yan Yuan stayed with him on the side of the bed for half an hour, Ning Zhiyu was breathing steadily, presumably she was fast asleep, Yan Yuan gently put his hand into the brocade quilt, got up and left.

When Yan Yuan's back was about to disappear into the hall, Ning Zhiyu slowly opened her eyes, turned her head to look at his tall back, her dark eyes were shrouded in intense sadness and despair.

His A Yuan will eventually leave him.

……

After ignoring the government affairs for several days, Yan Yuan went to the imperial study.Judging from the accumulated memorials, the heinous fox demon at the Border Pass did not make trouble again, no matter what the reason was, this was a good thing.

Thinking of this, Yan Yuan suddenly thought of the male vixen next to Xuanlong in Gutan... At the beginning, he was jealous of the relationship between Xuanlong and the vixen, so he didn't think much about it.Now that I think about it, the male vixen is not the same as the fox demon who harmed his people, right? ...

It shouldn't be...how could a kind dragon like Xuanlong get to know such a fox demon?Although Querle is not a good thing.

"Come on."

"Call General Chen and the Prime Minister into the palace."

Yan Yuan didn't know what to think of, hatred and hatred flashed in her eyes.

His patience with Yan Fuheng had reached its limit.

Yan Fuheng is Yan Yuan's half-brother, and also the mother-son of the current Empress Dowager. He was born in the same year, the same month, and the same day as Yan Yuan, only one hour earlier than him.

In the long run, it is to establish a heir but not to establish a long.Back then, Yan Yuan's queen mother died of dystocia in giving birth to Yan Yuan. In order to find a virtuous and virtuous mother for him, the emperor chose the queen mother who was still a nobleman at that time to be Yan Yuan's adoptive mother.In order to balance the power in the court and prevent noble concubines from taking advantage of Yanyuan's status as the crown prince and her natal family's influence to form a party for personal gain in the court and cause chaos in the court, nobleman Heng, the daughter of a small county magistrate, was undoubtedly the best choice at that time.

Even if the ten fingers have different lengths, their own children may not be equally good, let alone treat the ones that come out of other people's stomachs.Although the first emperor was not affectionate towards Yan Yuan, he was outright partial. After all, he was the child of the one he loved, and he was unwilling to see him more because he was afraid of hurting the scene, but it didn't mean he didn't value him.

When the first emperor issued an imperial decree and ordered Yan Yuan to be sent to nobleman Heng, he took away nobleman Heng's biological son, Yan Fuheng, and handed it over to Concubine Liang to be raised.

Concubine Liang has physical problems and is born sterile. It is good to have an adopted son to rely on when she gets old, but she has a hot temper and a bad temper. She can still pretend to be gentle in front of the late emperor. If it is not good, he will be beaten and scolded, so that Yan Fuheng has not had a good life for a few days since he was a child.Concubine Liang is used to being competitive and jealous. Once she loses ground with other concubines, when she is in a bad mood, she takes Yan Fuheng as a vent, which hurts him all over, so that he develops a gloomy and cold-blooded temperament later on.

Before becoming an adult, Yan Fuheng was not allowed to meet his biological mother. Even if nobleman Heng knew that his own son was living a life worse than that of a pig and a dog, he could not tell the first emperor how bad Concubine Liang was. She swore that from the day Yan Yuan came to her, she was Yan Yuan's biological mother and could not care about anything else.

Because of Yan Yuan, she was directly promoted from a nobleman to a noble concubine, and her father changed from a ninth-rank sesame official to a fourth-rank magistrate. Yan Yuan is good, her family is prosperous, if Yan Yuan makes a mistake, she and her family will be damaged by it.

She could only secretly give some money to the maids and eunuchs beside Concubine Liang, hoping that they would take more care of Yan Fuheng, but how could the court ladies and eunuchs influence the affairs of the master.

Concubine Heng is a good adoptive mother, with a gentle temperament, and keeps a close distance from him. Yan Yuan didn't realize that she was not her biological mother until she was an adult.

On the day of enthronement, Yan Fuheng killed his adoptive mother, Concubine Liang, and the prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. When Yan Fuheng was thrown into prison, Concubine Heng knelt down to beg Yan Yuan, and tearfully told about the son-changing.

I watched my own son suffer but there was nothing I could do, and I had to take care of other people's sons sincerely every day.This is an extremely cruel thing for a mother.

Although Yan Yuan did not see all of this, it did happen because of him.Killing one's mother is a heinous crime. Under the pressure of the courtiers, Yan Yuan could only sentence him to exile.

It is said that he was exiled, but in fact he was asked to go to the border to become a young general. Yan Fuheng was very talented in leading troops to fight, and he made military exploits in just a few months. Lieutenant, led his soldiers to drive away the Xiongnu who were raging in southern Xinjiang, and also conquered several small countries.

Yan Yuan thought that he had suffered all that for nothing, so she attached great importance to him, and went out of the palace to meet him when he was triumphant, and the Golden Luan Palace handed over a million soldier talismans to him, and named him the prince of Zhennan.

Unexpectedly, not only was Yan Fuheng not grateful, but he was also hiding a wolfish ambition. He stretched out his arms so long at the border, and tried to take his life time and time again. As the military power grew, he became more and more undisguised...

An hour later, General Chen and the prime minister were ordered to enter the palace.

Both of them are veteran ministers over half a century old, they were the right-hand men of the late emperor when they were young, and now they are also loyal ministers of Yan Yuan.

Ever since Yan Yuan was assassinated at the birthday banquet last year, the two elders suspected that the murderer behind the scenes was Yan Fuheng.The rest of the princes went to the fief early when they were adults, and they were all famous and powerless idle princes, even if they wanted to rebel, they had enough energy to spare.

Only Yan Fuheng, whose biological mother is the current empress dowager, holds millions of soldiers in his hands, as long as he wants to rebel, the imperial city may change hands at any time.

Yan Yuan was not sure at first, until after the assassination, when Chen Yan ordered people to find Yan Yuan's body, he used the feather arrows used by those dead soldiers, and found the underground workshop for casting arrows according to the special materials of the arrows. , and found a killer organization called Ghost Pavilion through the workshop.

Ghost Pavilion is well-known in Jianghu, with a huge organization network that spreads all over the country. In Ghost Pavilion, you can buy life or intelligence. As long as you can think of it, if you have enough money, you can do anything.

The identity of Yan Fuheng's buyer was exposed in this way, he bought Yan Yuan's life.

If Yan Fuheng wanted to hide his identity, it would definitely be an easy thing to do. Being discovered so easily meant that he did it on purpose.

His wolf ambition has no patience to hide.

After General Chen and the Prime Minister entered the palace, Yan Yuan roughly talked about her assassination when she went out of the palace in disguise, only saying that she suffered minor injuries, and skipped the matter of Xuanlong saving him and bringing him back from the dead.

That alone was enough to make General Chen turn red with anger and curse in the hall.

"That wolf-hearted thing! If the emperor hadn't let him go, he would have died a few years ago!"

Compared to General Chen's happy expression, the Prime Minister was very calm: "The matter has come to this, this Yan Fuheng cannot be kept, what is the emperor's plan?"

Yan Yuan's eyes were dark.

"Next month is my birthday, so I will take this opportunity to ask Yan Fuheng to come back to attend my birthday banquet."

"He dare not not answer the imperial decree."

"Since he wants to assassinate me, then I will retaliate with an eye."

"What do you two lovers think?"

The prime minister made a bow with both hands, thinking: "So, it's a way."

"It's just...that Yan Fuheng's martial arts are so strong, if you want to get close to him, I'm afraid it's not so easy to deal with, and it's even more difficult to do it without anyone noticing."

"I have a candidate in my heart, and I will definitely make him die without a place to bury him." Yan Yuan said.

"Who is it?" General Chen asked curiously.

"A strange person." Yan Yuan smiled mysteriously.

"Before next month, you have to strengthen the deployment of the city defense, and don't worry about the rest, I have my own arrangements."

"Yes." General Chen took the order.

"Ning Aiqing, you can go to Luanfeng Palace to see Ayu later, he is not in a good mood these days, you are his father, he should be happy to see you.

"Yes." The Prime Minister bent his thin back and said.

Ashamed to say, he didn't pay much attention to Ning Zhiyu in the past. After all, it was the product of drunken promiscuity. Zhiyu ignored it together.

Who knew that the sickly son would be favored by Yan Yuan and become a phoenix on the branch.

Yan Yuan somewhat knew what the prime minister was thinking, but that didn't affect Ning Zhiyu's mood when she saw her father. The belated father's love was also father's love. He felt guilty for Ning Zhiyu, so he tried to make up for him in other ways.

In the evening, Yan Yuan finally dealt with the accumulated government affairs and drove back to Qiankun Palace.

The strange person he was talking about was naturally Xuanlong.Xuanlong said in his mouth that he couldn't deal with the fox demon, but didn't the fox demon still calm down in the end, Yan Yuan felt that it was due to Xuanlong.

Since Xuanlong can subdue the demon, what's the difficulty in helping him kill someone.

It's great to have that dragon by my side, he is simply my lucky star, not only makes him like it so much, but also saves Ning Zhiyu's life.That's nothing, the most important thing is that with Xuanlong around, his thorn in the flesh is not an annoying thing anymore.

Yan Yuan sometimes wonders if Xuanlong is the divine dragon sent by the heavens to protect him, otherwise how could it be so powerful that it can always feed him and stabilize the country for him.
