Chapter 56 Tan Hua Dream Part 5

“Mmm…!” For some reason, the “Yan Changqing” in the grass suddenly raised his head. His eyes were wet, and he said with a trembling voice: “You…you’re too slow…ah!”

“Helian Rongchuan” raised the corners of his mouth into a familiar smirk: “Come and call me ‘husband’, then I will listen to you.”

“Yan Changqing” blushed even more, and glanced at “Helian Rongchuan” with shame and anger. He pursed his lips.

But immediately, “Yan Changqing” was forced to become even more flustered by “Helian Rongchuan”. Finally, he couldn’t help it. He frowned anxiously, his voice almost whimpering: “Hu—”

Helian Rongchuan was completely sure that this was the case. Isn’t this what he had always been thinking about the most!?

It’s really strange, how can what he thought in his heart suddenly appear in such an immersive way?

This kind of thing, Helian Rongchuan usually repeated countless times in his heart and was sobered countless times. Now that Yan Changqing had also seen it, Helian Rongchuan didn’t feel any embarrassment. He was even looking forward to seeing Yan Changqing’s reaction.

Helian Rongchuan glanced out of the corner of his eyes and saw that Yan Changqing’s expression had long been unable to endure seeing that. At first, he was embarrassed and didn’t know where to look, so he had to take a deep breath and close his eyes to ignore the scene in front of him.

But all patience completely disintegrated when “husband” was about to be said.

Yan Changqing’s brows trembled, his face seemed to be even redder than “Yan Changqing” in the grass, then he finally couldn’t bear it. He covered his ears, turned around and left.

Helian Rongchuan hurriedly followed. But after taking a few steps, Yan Changqing suddenly stopped in his footsteps, turned around, and looked at Helian Rongchuan sternly.

He remembered that the scenes just now were the erotic pictures engraved in the red lacquer and gold coffin that Helian Rongchuan gave him!

Yan Changqing still remembered the large characters engraved on the edge of the erotic drawing.

“Your dream!” Yan Changqing said, “What the h*ll are you doing!”

Helian Rongchuan spread out his hands and said calmly, “This is indeed what I think about the most, day and night in my heart, but why it suddenly appeared here, I have no idea.”

Yan Changqing saw that Helian Rongchuan did not seem to be lying. He had a slight frown: “Could it be ……”

“The flower fragrance!” Helian Rongchuan said: “We must have smelled the flowers and something happened.”

The two men immediately stopped breathing, thinking they could go back to reality, but after waiting for a long time, the surrounding scenery was still the same.

Helian Rongchuan thought for a while, then said, “Come! Slap me!”

Yan Changqing knew what Helian Rongchuan meant. To break the illusion, you have to start with the person who the illusion originated from. So he raised his hand and slapped Helian Rongchuan.

“Pa!”

A very, very soft sound.

Helian Rongchuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “It’s too light, I didn’t feel anything at all!”

Having said that, Helian Rongchuan felt sweet in his heart.

His big darling didn’t want to hurt him.

Seeing that the slap didn’t work, Yan Changqing gritted his teeth and increased his strength.

“Pa!”

With a crisp sound, the scene in front of them suddenly changed. On the high tower, a young man in black armour stood with his hands behind his back. His back was thin and straight, and from a distance, it looked like a black sword that had just been sheathed, but his long hair, which was simply bundled looked soft, fluttering in the wind and shining in the sun. It was like a satin glowing with an indigo light.

This is……?

Helian Rongchuan recognized the familiar back at a glance, and said with a smile, “Hey, isn’t this person you? Now it’s your dream?”

Yan Changqing was slightly startled, then nodded: “Now, you hit me.”

Helian Rongchuan hesitated. Although he wanted to see what Yan Changqing’s dream was, he understood that at this time, it was better to leave the illusion as soon as possible. Saving people was the most important thing.

Therefore.

“Pa.”

There was an inaudible sound as if it was gentle stroking of one’s face.

Yan Changqing looked serious and said, “Again!”

“Pa.”

“Again!”

“Pa.”

“Again!”

Helian Rongchuan closed his eyes and forced himself to be cruel.

“Pa!”

The two opened their eyes and looked at the couple who were kissing passionately in the grassland, and were stunned at the same time.

H*ll, why did they come back to Helian Rongchuan’s dream!

“Baby, how is it, is your husband slow or fast now?” “Helian Rongchuan” smiled evilly, his voice low and magnetic.

“En… husb——”

Before the person under him could finish speaking, Yan Changqing stood up abruptly and slapped Helian Rongchuan with a loud slap to the face.

Sure enough, they went back to the castle.

“Okay.”

Helian Rongchuan covered his cheeks with a resentful tone.

It seemed that this illusion will not be solved for a while. They will have to take a look at the situation first.

However, it was not bad to be able to glimpse the deep dream of Yan Changqing.

In the breeze, “Yan Changqing” on the city tower turned his head slightly and looked into the distance.

As far as the eye can see, the sky went on for thousands of miles, the blue sky was clear, the eagle was flying in the sky, and the fish were swimming in the sea. Between the vast and boundless mountains and rivers, dotted like dazzling gems were the towns and villages of the Yan Kingdom. In the prosperous Sheng An City, colourful business flags fluttered in the wind, and the sound of hawking and frolic was endless. The crowd was bustling with young women holding their children, filial sons holding their mothers, husbands accompanying their wives, and many business travellers dressed in outfits from other countries passing through. No matter who it was, they were all smiles, and at a glance, one can tell that this was a street scene that can only be found in a peaceful and prosperous age.

And the boundless fields were full of golden wheat, heavy, plump ears of wheat hanging from the ground with red-faced peasants raising their sickles to harvest them. When they were tired, they sat on the neat ridges to rest. The village women in coarse cloth brought food and water. People ate, laughed, and sang cheerful, happy village tunes.

Helian Rongchuan glanced at Yan Changqing beside him with a smile and seeing the longing in his eyes, Helian Rongchuan’s eyes became much gentler.

It turns out that the peace of the world and the prosperity of the country and the people are what Yan Changqing cares about most.

His Changqing was really a well-deserved pillar of the country.

Helian Rongchuan sighed, but in a corner of his heart, there was a faint sense of melancholy.

The joy in the village gradually drifted away. Helian Rongchuan’s thoughts were pulled back when the slow trots of horses arose in the quiet forest.

He saw that “Yan Changqing” was no longer wearing black armour, but a normal black military uniform with narrow sleeves. He was riding on a white horse and galloping towards the mountains.

Helian Rongchuan poked his finger at Yan Changqing curiously: “Where are you going? Why do you look so anxious?”

Yan Changqing pursed his lips unnaturally, wanting to pull Helian Rongchuan away: “You don’t look!”

Helian Rongchuan raised his eyebrows slightly. Seeing Yan Changqing a little embarrassed and wanting to deliberately change the subject made him even more curious.

Shuang Zhui finally stopped on flat ground in the forest. Here, there were clear streams, pines and green bamboos standing in an embrace, and a small, simple and clean courtyard appeared in the light mountain mist. In the courtyard, the white hydrangea and the fiery red impatiens were in full bloom. A few fluffy rabbits passed under the flowers, and the beautiful petals rustled.

In the distance, Helian Rongchuan could even hear the crowing of the rooster and the moo of the cow.

Yan Changqing seemed to be more nervous and wanted to drag Helian Rongchuan away again.

Helian Rongchuan stared at Yan Changqing with a wicked smile: “What are you nervous about? Could it be that there is something shameful in your dreams – eh, strange, why did I say ‘also’?”

“Du du” The knock on the door interrupted Helian Rongchuan’s words. As soon as the wooden door “squeaked” open, “Helian Rongchuan” came out, dressed in coarse cloth, with a blue floral apron tied around his waist, and a spatula in his hand.

Helian Rongchuan couldn’t help laughing while covering his stomach, out of breath and said: “Hahahahaha – it turns out that you came here in such a hurry to eat the food I made for you! What kind of dream is this? Come, come, when we get out of this h*llish place, I will cook for you every day, anything you want!”

Yan Changqing was very embarrassed. He opened his mouth to explain, but he didn’t know what to say.

This “Helian Rongchuan” had already placed the food on the table, a plate of oily and crispy lotus bacon fried tofu, a plate of tender shallots mixed with tofu, a large bowl of milky white fragrant wild fish tofu soup, and two bowls of hot, white rice.

Helian Rongchuan looked at Yan Changqing with a smile: “It turns out that Master Yan likes to eat tofu. What a coincidence, I like it too.”

(pun: eat tofu = take advantage)
