Chapter 371: White Moonlight in the Ancient Bloody Novels (14)
After more than a month, we finally arrived in Chang'an in mid-July.
Hearing the noise outside, Yan Lanhua, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but lift the curtain and look out the window.
The streets were lined with vendors, and the chirping and shouting made the place seem particularly lively. I couldn't help but sigh, "It's so lively."
He had never seen such a prosperous and flourishing scene. On the frontier, Daqian had fought with the enemy country for several years in a row. The town was already the best place he had ever seen, but there was actually Chang'an which was thousands of times better than the small town.
Indeed, it is worthy of being the place where the emperor sits.
Jiang Zui heard Yan Lanhua mumbling to himself and couldn't help but say: "This is the East Market. When there is a chance, I will take you to the West Market. The West Market is better than this."
There were four markets in Chang'an, namely the east, south, west and north. The East Market was close to the city gate, so residents outside the city often brought things into the city to do small business. Over time, the East Market became a market visited by ordinary people.
Eighty percent of the businesses in Taipei and South City are owned by merchants from outside the city.
The most luxurious, richest and busiest market is undoubtedly the West Market.
The West Market is where most officials and wealthy businessmen live. Therefore, the prices and items are very complete and rare. If something is not available in the East Market, the West Market will definitely have it, and if something is available in the East Market, the West Market will also have it.
"West Market?" Yan Lanhua was stunned and said, "Okay."
Yan Lanhua's voice was full of expectation. Seeing this, Jiang Zui smiled and teased, "Husband, are you ready?"
"Preparing for what?" Yan Lanhua asked in confusion. In the next second, he suddenly realized what was happening. The smile on his face became stiff, and he said nervously, "Not yet..."
Just as they entered the city, Jiang Zui separated from Mi Yang. Mi Yang planned to go to Beicheng, while he planned to take Yan Lanhua directly back to Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
The Yong'an Marquis Mansion is in Xishi, very close to the Imperial Palace.
Yan Lanhua became more and more anxious as he got closer to Chang'an.
Before entering the city, Yan Lanhua had asked Jiang Zui many times. Jiang Zui gave him a lot of assurances and comforted him many times along the way, but Yan Lanhua had no choice but to keep his heart hanging high.
It was not until he entered the city that Yan Lanhua was gradually bewitched by the noisy atmosphere and forgot his sorrow for a moment.
Jiang Zui's reminder instantly made Yan Lanhua worried again.
"In less than an hour, we will reach the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. Don't worry, you can treat the mansion as your own home. There is nothing to be afraid of." Jiang Zui comforted him habitually.
Listening to Jiang Zui's words, Yan Lanhua couldn't help but ask: "Don't be afraid of anyone? Does this include you? And your father?"
He learned from Jiang Zui that Jiang Zui's mother had passed away many years ago and that Jiang Zui was the most senior person in the mansion except for Marquis Yong'an.
"Of course, you don't have to be afraid of me or my father." Jiang Zui continued, "I am your husband, so I naturally put you first.
As for my dad...
I found a daughter-in-law for him and he was so happy.
If...he causes trouble for you, tell me and I will help you teach him a lesson.
If you see him, you don't have to be afraid, just curse back.
If he dares to touch you, I will let him know the power of me, a 'filial son'."
When Princess Zhaoyang was young, she was attracted by the appearance of Jiang Chen, Marquis of Yong'an, and took the initiative to ask the late emperor to grant her a marriage.
After getting married, Jiang Chen helped Emperor Qian of Ming ascend the throne, and after being rewarded with the credit of following the dragon, he retired.
Before Princess Zhaoyang died, the couple had a very deep relationship.
Jiang Chen didn't even have a concubine.
Because of an accident and a plot by the maids in the mansion, he had only one concubine.
And this only concubine was killed by Jiang Chen after she gave birth to Jiang Shixuan.
Therefore, Jiang Chen only has two children: Jiang Zui and Jiang Shixuan.
This is also the reason why Jiang Shixuan was able to inherit the title.
Jiang Chen loved the original owner very much, and the original owner was very supportive in all aspects.
It can be said that Jiang Chen is biased to the extreme.
He cared about the original owner in everything, but ignored Jiang Shixuan and let him grow up.
Even in the plot, Jiang Chen gave the title to Jiang Shixuan, hoping that Jiang Shixuan would take care of the blind original owner for his sake.
After listening to Jiang Zui's words, Yan Lanhua burst out laughing, "Ayu, you are like this...does your uncle know?!
It's unfortunate for my uncle to have a 'filial son' like you."
After a pause, she continued, "But I am so lucky to have a husband like you."
Jiang Zui immediately grasped the point, his eyes lit up, and he said, "You...what did you just call me? Call me again?"
Jiang Zui had only heard Yan Lanhua call him "husband" in bed.
Since he started his journey, Jiang Zui has never touched Yan Lanhua again. It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but that he can’t.
The carriage was bumpy and Yan Lanhua felt very uncomfortable. When he arrived at the inn, he found that the rooms were not soundproof. After much consideration, he could not find the right time and place.
This matter...was put on hold!
Therefore, Jiang Zui only heard Yan Lanhua shout a few times.
Seeing Jiang Zui looking expectant and nervous, Yan Lanhua pursed her lips, feeling a little embarrassed.
He...he just said it subconsciously.
He didn't expect that he would say such words, as if he had already determined that Jiang Zui was his husband.
"Doctor Yan, my husband, I want to hear it, just call me." Jiang Zui said coquettishly to Yan Lanhua.
Yan Lanhua blushed and refused softly: "No...No..."
"Why not?" Jiang Zui subconsciously retorted: "Husband, just one word, okay?"
Under Jiang Zui's strategy, Yan Lanhua finally gritted her teeth and whispered, "Husband...Husband."
"Ah." Jiang Zui responded quickly, "Husband, you are so nice."
After saying that, Jiang Zui lowered his head and kissed Yan Lanhua's lips, but Yan Lanhua grabbed his chin and said, "No!"
"Why?" Jiang Zui asked with confusion in his eyes.
He wanted to kiss his own husband, is that not possible? !
"We're going to your house soon, and I...I don't want to be kissed by you. How can I face people then?" Yan Lanhua explained.
Although Jiang Zui didn't eat meat for more than a month, he drank a lot of soup.
There were many traces under Yan Lanhua's clothes. If you looked closely, you could even see teeth marks and red and purple marks on Yan Lanhua's collarbone.
Yan Lanhua's words dispelled Jiang Zui's thoughts, "Okay, it's okay if I don't kiss you."
Although he said he wouldn't kiss her, Jiang Zui still gently kissed Yan Lanhua's forehead.
"Didn't you say you don't want to kiss?" Yan Lanhua said helplessly.
Jiang Zui looked calm and asked, "I said no kissing, but I didn't say no kissing anywhere else."
Yan Lanhua looked at Jiang Zui's shameless behavior, gnashed his teeth, raised his foot and kicked his calf, complaining, "I'll let you bully me."
Jiang Zui was startled by Yan Lanhua's action, and he didn't expect that the other party would be so ruthless. He couldn't help but scream, "Hiss——"
"Husband, are you really willing to do this?" Jiang Zui asked, rubbing his calf.
"You deserve it!" Yan Lanhua said with a hint of nervousness in the depths of his eyes but still looking angry.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault." Jiang Zui begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have kissed you, I will never kiss you again, okay."
As soon as the words fell, Yan Lanhua became even angrier and directly retorted: "No!"
What do you mean never kiss him again?!
If not him? Then who?!
Or does Jiang Zui want to change people? !
In just a moment, Yan Lanhua's thoughts spread very quickly.
"Alas." Jiang Zui sighed lightly and said helplessly: "I was wrong. Kiss you. From now on, I will only kiss you, okay?"
Yan Lanhua did not answer Jiang Zui, but his expression had already told Jiang Zui.
Jiang Zui said in a gentle voice: "Since you don't let me kiss anyone else, then I can only kiss you."
As soon as these words came out, Yan Lanhua suddenly rushed towards Jiang Zui, hugged Jiang Zui's neck, raised his head and offered his lips to him, and said, "Kiss him."
The young man took the initiative to throw himself into his arms, how could Jiang Zui let him down.
So Jiang Zui put his arms around Yan Lanhua's waist and slowly lowered his head.
