Chapter 187 Wait, even if the sea withers away and the rocks are destroyed
The lantern festival ten years ago was as lively as it is today.
At that time, Long Huai was only sixteen years old. With his extraordinary military ability, he led a group of Dongyuan soldiers to break out of the barbarian siege, captured many of the enemy's cities, and returned in triumph. He was truly a proud man of heaven.
And Yan Xiang was just the bastard son of a foot-washing maid. It wasn't until his mother passed away that he was forced to adopt and be raised by the eldest lady, and then he was successfully raised as the eldest son. Before he became the eldest son, he didn't know how much abuse he suffered.
He was tortured by others, and later the eldest lady also died, and his status as the eldest son was only in vain. His future life became more and more difficult, not much better than before.
That day at the Lantern Festival, Yan Xiang couldn't stand the beatings from his brothers and sisters and ran away from the house. He had no choice but to disguise himself as a woman, but he didn't expect that his colorful dress attracted the attention of Long Huai, who was riding a horse in the street.
.
"Catch the thief! Catch the thief!!"
The boss of the steamed stuffed bun shop burst into loud shouts among the bustling crowd, and soon the little Yan Xiang was arrested in public by the crowd.
He was so hungry and had no money on him that he couldn't help but steal one of the boss's buns.
"Well, you little bastard, you were born but not taught by your mother. You dare to steal things on me. Where is your master? Tell him to come out and argue with me!"
"I'm sorry, I was so hungry that I couldn't hold it back... I haven't touched the bun, so I'm returning it to you. Please don't ask for my father, okay?" Yan Xiang took out a white bun from his arms and handed it to the man.
Unexpectedly, the man kicked the buns out of his hand, and looked coldly: "You have touched it with your dirty hands, who can I sell it to? Since you didn't call your parents, then today
I'll just mind my own business and teach you a lesson for your parents, so that you know what kind of punishment you deserve for stealing." As he said that, the man's burly body walked up to Yan Xiang in two or three steps, and carried the chick.
He seemed to lift Yan Xiang up with one hand.
"stop!"
Long Huai, wearing a gray-blue fox fur coat, appeared from the crowd riding a precious horse: "How much does Baozi cost? I will pay ten times. There is only one condition, let him go."
When the boss heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. He was a bastard who didn't want to make money if he had money. He nodded and bowed quickly and let the man go.
"Thank you, I will repay you."
The horse's hoof beat, Long Huai turned around and looked at him: "What will you do in return for me?"
"I...I can protect you and work as a cow and a horse for you."
"Protect me?" Long Huai only found it funny after hearing his words: "How dare you say you protect me when you can't even protect yourself?"
"I just haven't eaten for a long time, so I can't exert any strength. You believe me, I have a lot of energy. I chop the firewood up and down in the house on weekdays. I will definitely be able to protect you."
Long Huai just smiled and said nothing, shook his head and rode away.
"You haven't told me where I should go to find you. I said I would repay you."
"Go to Jingmingxuan, and I will tell the people there that you will not be charged for eating wherever you go. Don't steal anything again, or you won't be so lucky next time."
Yan Zhan looked at Long Huai's retreating back. He didn't know his name, but he was sure that one day he would appear in the place called Jingmingxuan.
The two teenagers met again at the celebration banquet a year later.
He won another battle, riding a black treasure horse like a divine king above the nine heavens. He looked at him cautiously.
Long Huai jumped off his horse and came to Yan Xiang. He was becoming more and more handsome, with an indistinguishable face that made Long Huai couldn't help but look at it a few more times. "So it's you. I heard that you went there after that time."
Jing Mingxuan has come to see me many times."
Yan Xian was flattered: "I said I would repay you."
"May I have your name?"
"Yan..."
"Xian'er, why are you still here at this time? The Marquis is looking for you everywhere."
After finishing speaking, Fourth Yiniang noticed Long Huai beside her, and immediately reacted and said: "It turns out it's the Tenth Prince, so you're disturbing me. Since the Tenth Prince and Xiang'er have something to talk about, I'll go back to the Marquis and let him know."
He doesn't have to go over there."
Long Huai nodded, acquiescing to Fourth Yiniang's arrangement.
"So your name is Xiang'er, Yan Xiang'er...it's such a nice name." Long Huai said.
Yan Xiang knew that he had misunderstood and wanted to explain, but at this moment he did not have the courage to admit his true self. Perhaps it was due to the unknown selfish desires deep in his heart. He was greedy and extravagantly hoping to stay with him for a while longer.
.
"Let's find a place to rest first."
Long Huai thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. Find a cleaner place to have a cup of tea. It's rare to leave the palace. If you go back like this, you're wasting this great time."
King Yan Xiang pointed in front of him: "How about we go to Jingmingxuan?"
"Just what I want, please."
Arriving at the second floor seating area, there was a guqin placed in the compartment inside. Yan Xiang unconsciously stroked the strings, and the flowing sound flowed out from his fingertips. He played so selflessly that he didn't notice a scorching heat at all.
Her eyes were burning towards him.
As soon as Yan Xiang opened his eyes, he met Long Huai's infatuated gaze. As soon as he raised his eyes, he seemed to have been cast a restraining spell. In fact, those eyes only glanced at him lightly, but Yan Xiang felt that
Suddenly, he was shot with an arrow, which went straight into his heart, causing a burst of pain and throbbing.
Long Huai couldn't help but put his hands on his hands. Those hands could play the most beautiful piano sounds in the world, which really made him unable to put them down.
Yan Xiang was horrified and wanted to retract his hand: "The tenth prince..."
"You just said you wanted to repay me, are you still doing it now?"
"Of course it counts."
"Well, I want you, now."
Yan Xiang felt a chill on his back when he heard this, but before he could react, his vision went dark...
With his heart beating extremely fast, Yan Xiang regained his senses: "Tenth Prince, I...I don't deserve your love. What we did was wrong."
Long Huai thought that Yan Xiang was shy, perhaps because he was afraid that he would not be responsible for him, so he said: "Even if it is wrong, I am willing to make it wrong. I like you."
After hearing this, Yan Xiang felt happy inside and lowered his head shyly.
That's all, even if it's wrong, it's still worth it.
…
But when he opened his eyes again, Long Huai disappeared.
This disappeared for three years.
This disappearance may be forever.
This gathering has ruined the lives of three people.
But Yan Xiang has never regretted it. The past is unforgettable and enough is enough.
He didn't believe that Long Huai's words of love were fake. He must have been unable to accept this fact for a while, so he left. He loved himself, and maybe one day he would come back.
He waits, even if the sea withers away and the rocks rot.
