Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 319
Chapter 319 Can’t Bear To Touch
Although the liveliness of Chang’an was unparalleled in the world, such a late night should have been a dark night for the entire city in the past. Occasionally, there would be one or two restaurants in West City, such as Orioles Garden, where lanterns were hazy and sleepy, or groups of soldiers would be seen patrolling by with torches in their hands.
However, today was the time to go to bed, and the West City was still the center of the commotion. The entire city seemed to have turned black and white, and it was more lively in the middle of the night than during the day, dispelling the harsh winter coldness.
Princess Gaoyang climbed up the tower of the Vermillion Bird Sect of the Imperial City and watched curiously for a long time. She did not know what had happened. The Imperial City’s Imperial Guards had already gone out to check on the situation. They had thought that something “abnormal” had happened in the city, which had triggered such a major reaction.
A maidservant who had followed the imperial guards out to visit came back and reported the situation in West City to Princess Gaoyang out of breath.
‘”Alright, this guy!” Princess Gao Yang’s teeth itched with hatred as she clenched her fists and cursed, “How could such a funny thing not call me? How could you have such a good time while I’m away … I, I, I …!”
“Princess, I heard that Prince Consort is personally accompanying that blind female demon. Why are you teaching me how to play the piano?” The maidservant vividly said, “The three fairies of the Qin Immortal Pavilion publicly performing on the streets of the West City is already shocking enough. In addition to the consort’s blending, wow! The entire West City has gone mad!”
“Stop!” Princess Gaoyang shouted angrily. She raised her fists and claws like a cub lioness. She secretly said, “Good, good, good!” Without looking for a while, he was just playing around outside! Having fun with other women, can’t you take me so casually? Hmph, Qin Mubai, this princess has the most grudges!
“Princess … are you alright?” The maidservant was a little scared, “You, why did your face turn green?”
“Shut up!” Princess Gaoyang scolded angrily and turned around to leave, “Go to Qin Manor!”
“… Yes.”
After walking around the tower angrily for a while, Princess Gaoyang saw that there was no lantern at the end of the tower. There seemed to be a figure, and a voice could be heard–
“No! I must get this woman!” There was a trace of anger in his voice. It was obvious that he had no habit of suppressing his voice, and it was more like shouting than chatting.
Princess Gaoyang was a little surprised. Her voice was very familiar. Who was it?
She rolled her eyes and called the maids behind her to make a gesture of silence, asking them to help watch the surroundings and dispatch the guards who were patrolling the city towers. He then hid in a dark corner under the female wall with his cat on his waist and approached the pair of figures.
“Seventh Uncle,” he said, “today is different from the past. Even I have to respect him for three feet. It’s better for you not to make a move at such a young age.”
Princess Gaoyang was shocked. Brother Crown Prince? … the seventh uncle in his mouth, could it be Hanwang? !
“Crown Prince, let’s put it this way … How do you feel about a satisfactory death?” Hanwang said.
“You!” The Crown Prince’s voice sounded loud. It was obvious that he was touched by the pain. There was still some anger. He snorted and said, “There’s no need to mention it again!”
“Isn’t that so?” Hanwang sneered, “the more can’t get things, the more can’t bear to lose things, is the most unforgettable. Actually, not only is that bitch blind, but her face and figure are nothing compared to those women I’ve played with. She doesn’t understand the charm, she doesn’t appreciate flattery, and she even disdains this king! However, the more she acted like this, the more itchy this king’s heart would become! I’m really tired of playing with those vase girls who throw themselves into the arms of a dragon and a phoenix. Regardless of whether it was a rich family’s daughter or a good family’s daughter, no matter how arrogant and dignified they were in front of others, as long as this king took action, they would definitely be able to capture them. When I get into this king’s bed, I will obediently turn into a slut. A woman was no match for a man in terms of wealth and drunkenness. Facing the pressure of power and the temptation of wealth and desire, they have to retreat from their hypocritical appearances and become this king’s trump cards. What restraint, face, and ethical precepts were all forgotten, not even a hawk! As for women who were already women or even mothers, it was needless to say. They are infatuated with men and women, eager to caress, comfort, excitement and passion. She was by no means the only woman in their men. Men drank heaven and earth outside, and women stayed at home alone. Such a woman’s heart was filled with grievances, and it was only then that she was truly like a wolf and a tiger. They weren’t as demanding of a man’s appearance and character as the daughter of a wealthy family or a good family. Deep down in their hearts, they were buried the most instinctive thirst for desire. This kind of woman would have the impulse and power to rape a man when she was in bed. So, for the past two years, I’ve only played with those people, women, and mothers. Don’t get excited. ”
Princess Gaoyang hid under the female wall, her face flushed red and her heart beat wildly. She secretly scolded Seventh Uncle for being so evil and shameless!
“Why are you talking about this? When it comes to women, you talk endlessly.” The Crown Prince was obviously a little impatient. “Let’s go. After watching the liveliness, we’ll go back to the Eastern Palace and rest early.”
“What’s the hurry?” Hanwang said calmly, “Of course I’m talkative, because I have more passion and desire than you do now. Look at you now. Once you die of satisfaction, it’s like half the sky has collapsed. You’re like a walking corpse without food and tea. That won’t do.”
“It’s not all because of him.” The Crown Prince’s voice was filled with exhaustion. “Fourth Brother has been pressing on me step by step lately. The court is in a state of panic. He is shouting for the reestablishment of the Storage Lord. Ah … I really don’t know how this day is going to end.”
“What are you thinking so much about? As long as you don’t make a big mistake, you will be the eldest son of the first wife, the Crown Prince. The ancestor’s family, Fawan Chao, has set the rules there, and the Empress’s last words and Fang Xuanling’s death guarantee. Who can touch you?” Han Wang was obviously impatient. He immediately changed the topic and continued to talk about women. He said, “Actually, no matter how many kinds of women there are, they will never leave the sect. In the end, they are men’s subordinates. They have to rely on men. There are so many women in the harem, and 90% of them will not be loved by His Majesty for the rest of their lives. If they want to live alone in the palace, they won’t be women anymore.”
“Shut up!” The Crown Prince suddenly scolded in a low voice, “You don’t want to die, are you saying such nonsense?”
“What did I say? Hehe …” Hanwang smiled wretchedly and was a little proud.
However, Princess Gaoyang, who was smart and snowy, was shocked in her heart. She was not too shocked. Could it be that Hanwang had even played with … the concubines of the harem? This …!
“Cough, if you don’t say it, then don’t say it. Just say it to that bitch!” Hanwang changed his tone and continued, “Actually, at first, I just wanted to taste something fresh.” What kind of woman had played with, and was tired of playing with, but she had never played with a blind man. But who would have thought that that blind woman, relying on the care of the Qin Clan father and son, would pretend to be a pure and fierce woman and disdain this king’s favor! Ho! This was truly ridiculous! This time, it’s good that this king was beaten up because of her! Truth be told, Crown Prince. If it weren’t for you stopping me, I would have risked my life to kill the Qin Clan disciple alive and then kill his entire clan. “Of course, except for women.”
Princess Gaoyang gritted her teeth and her bones rang, “The entire family is small, except for women … Does that include me? You bastard!!”
“Stop talking. The more you say it, the more ridiculous it becomes!” The Crown Prince pulled Hanwang to leave, “Go back to the Eastern Palace!”
‘”Anyway, I’ll listen to you. I won’t quarrel with Qin and do anything bad to you. But that bitch, I’ll kill her sooner or later! If you don’t help me, you can; but don’t stumble on me and betray me!” Hanwang stubbornly said.
“Ah … I don’t care about you, I don’t care about you, okay?” The Crown Prince was clearly helpless and said, “I only advise you. Although that gentle and elegant Qin doesn’t blush, when he becomes ruthless, he is not as ruthless as usual.” You still remember how Hegan Chengji died, don’t you? You know that the Xue brothers are so vicious and unruly, and they’ve been cleared up by him to the point of obedience, don’t you? Such a mess in Lanzhou was cleaned up by him for a year. Even my uncle, Fang Xuanling and the others had to admit defeat … Seventh Uncle, he is now so popular that even Fourth Brother even took the initiative to laugh at him. I advise you to stay away from him. This brat is not something you can provoke. ”
“…” Hanwang’s shadow was stunned for a long time, and finally viciously spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm, gritted his teeth and said, “This is more exciting, isn’t it? What kind of thing was he? Why did a blind woman who disdained me treat him like a god? Why would he snatch away Chang’an’s number one beauty, the Emperor’s woman, Wu Meiniang? Why would the Emperor’s beloved daughter, the princess who was not afraid of the heavens and the earth, be so devoted to him? This king doesn’t believe in this evil! ! “!”
“Then take care!” The Crown Prince said coldly and left first.
Hanwang stood on the side of the building for a long time, hatefully smashed his fist on the wall brick a few times before leaving angrily.
Princess Gaoyang squatted in the shadow under the female wall for a long time. Her body was a little numb. The Crown Prince and Hanwang walked for a long time. She was blown cold by a gust of night wind and shivered. Only then did she regain her senses.
“Immediately go to Qin Manor!!!”
The boiling heat in the western market slowly dissipated, and everyone returned home unfinished. Presumably, those who had witnessed today’s grand gathering would often take pride in their time, while those who had missed it would feel regretful.
Qin Mubai and Yao’er had already returned home. They sat around the big stove with their mother and sister. They ate the snacks Shuang’er had personally made and drank the steaming hot tea to chat with each other.
Yao’er’s face was always red and unadorned, as if she was still immersed in the passion she had just experienced. It was as if Qin Mubai’s hand was still warm, causing her to tremble slightly.
Dogtail Grass, who had once looked up at the sky, held hands with the white clouds in the sky. But when it came true, she felt like she was falling into the clouds. It was so unreal.
“Eh, Yao’er, are you alright?” Shuang’er leaned forward and asked with concern.
“No, it’s fine!” Yao’er hurriedly replied.
Shuang’er glanced at Qin Mubai and hesitated to say, “Why are you trembling? Is your face flushed like this? Could it be …”
Qin Mubai pretended to turn a blind eye. What Shuang’er meant was that she was referring to some girl’s family matters.
Yao’er also got off the donkey along the slope, “Well, I’m a little uncomfortable …”
Mother Madam Liu hurriedly said, “Then go back and rest early!”
As for women, there would always be days when their bodies and minds would not be able to move smoothly.
“Yes, Mother. Yao’er has left first. Mother greets you, Third Brother greets you …” Yao’er bowed twice before leaving with Shuang’er.
Mrs. Liu looked at the back of the two women and nodded with a smile. The corner of her eyes was covered with crow’s tails. “What a good girl! Yao’er only knows how to be modest and prudent. This kind of woman is the most suitable for her husband and godson. But unfortunately, she is a good girl, and her parents died blind. Ah … what a joke from heaven!”
Qin Mubai didn’t say anything and quietly drank a cup of tea.
Qin Mubai was very clear about Yao’er’s feelings for him. Ever since she first met her, she had always been filled with gratitude and worship, placing herself in the most humble position. She carefully and silently guarded her own thoughts, not even daring to reveal a single corner of it to others. He was afraid that if he made any mistakes, he would lose everything that he could touch right now.
He had always maintained his lowliness and some sort of reverence, but his heart was filled with fervent anticipation and yearning. Any intersection between the two of them was an unexpected surprise and shock to her.
This was perhaps her greatest happiness.
Qin Mubai was very clear about his position in Yao’er’s heart. She was her elder brother who cared for her, her teacher, her benefactor who saved her from fire and water, and her lofty divine grasp that could not be blasphemed. In her heart, a man with a mortal body and even a slightly vulgar body was infinitely beautified, almost becoming a beautiful existence.
Sometimes, Qin Mubai wondered if Yao’er’s invisibility was the source of her happiness and persistence. Because if he couldn’t see it, there would be an eternal distance. The so-called distance produces beauty, but actually distance conceals ugliness.
Qin Mubai knew very well that as long as she whispered in her ear, Yao’er would unswervingly be his woman. She would never leave, never give up, and never regret. She would even be willing to tie the ouroboros for her dog.
She was such a woman.
Her wish was simple and persistent, pure as ice without a trace of dust, and it even made people unable to bear to blaspheme it.
However, Qin Mubai knew what kind of person he was. He had a vulgar body that was no different from other men. He was greedy for power and wealth, accustomed to fresh clothes and angry horses, fond of beauties and fine wine, and wanted blood for vengeance … He was far from being the sage and perfect existence in Yao’er’s eyes.
At that time, facing the great gap between ideal and reality, how could she endure it?
In a nutshell, Qin Mubai felt that he was under a lot of pressure when facing Yao’er’s ideals and admiration. The root of the pressure was that he couldn’t bear to disappoint her. Therefore, she did not dare to touch the persistence and fervor in the depths of her heart for fear that it would tarnish the purest and holiest place in the world, much less break her beautiful dreams and fantasies.
Being able to live in a fantasy for a lifetime was not without happiness. This was because reality was often too cruel.
After drinking the last bit of tea in the cup, Qin Mubai prepared to get up and send her mother back to her room to rest. At this time, the door of his family was suddenly slapped fiercely, making him very anxious and abrupt in the silent night.
“Open the door! It’s me! It’s me!” While knocking on the door, there was also such a loud shout.
“Gaoyang? Why did you run out of the palace so late?”
Mother gave him a hand and said, “You can deal with it. I’ll go rest for myself.”
“Alright.” Qin Mubai bid farewell to his mother and walked towards the gate. At this time, the door was already dressed up and opened. Princess Gaoyang’s figure rushed in.
“Mubai, hurry! Hurry!-I have something important to tell you!”
