Chapter 22 Escape
On Xuanying's side, the dog said it was not good at all, "Woo woo woo woo."
Mo Yuan brought Xuanying to the military camp. A group of men were very excited to see Xuanying. They all rushed over, hugged Xuanying and pressed him under them.
A group of people were touching Xuanying all over. Lieutenant General Li said as he touched her: "Hey, Xuanying, long time no see. Have you forgotten me? It was you who dragged me down from the battlefield. Otherwise, I would have died long ago."
Others started to make a noise: “Does the deputy general want to acknowledge Xuanying as his godfather? Hahahahaha.”
Lieutenant General Li kicked him and said, "Get out of the way."
Everyone led Xuanying away with a laugh.
Deputy General Li looked at Mo Yuan with disdain and said, "How could Xuan Ying come with you? Where is the Emperor?"
Mo Yuan raised his head and said to Lieutenant General Li sarcastically, "You should call me Marquis now."
Lieutenant General Li rolled his eyes and elbowed him, shouting, "My Lord, do you want to die?" Mo Yuan stopped pretending to be laughing. After all, they were able to get together on a festival like the Flower Festival, and they were all friends who were willing to die for each other.
Mo Yuan did not hide it from Li Ji and said directly: "The emperor is enjoying the moonlight and flowers right now. Poor Xuanying is all alone and no one wants him. Fortunately, he has a handsome, suave, young and promising marquis like me to accompany him." As he spoke, he wiped away two non-existent tears.
When Li Ji saw that he was having another attack, he simply ignored him and turned to look for Xuan Ying, which was disgusting.
The other two people under the moonlight had already walked around most of the market. Now the flow of people was heavy in the middle of the market, so Pei Yan hugged Lu An to his side, fearing that they would be separated by the crowd.
Lu An and a guy selling candied haws next to them made eye contact, and they were both speechless. However, from the look in the guy's eyes, Lu An felt that he must have had some bad thoughts. He unconsciously moved to the side, away from Pei Yan.
What's that look? ah! What are you looking at! 】
[Put away your dirty thoughts, this is my master]
Because there were too many people, Pei Yan thought Lu An was talking and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Lu An was startled. He asked cautiously, "Are you asking me? I didn't say anything!"
Pei Yan realized he was wrong when he heard Lu An's words, and continued to ask calmly, "Are you looking at the candied haws? If you want to eat them, you can go buy some."
Lu An had not originally planned to buy candied haws, but he saw that behind the stall selling candied haws was an alley, which connected to the street on the other side.
Can I run?
[Can we go? The money Pei Yan gave me is enough for me to live for a while]
[It's better to be outside than to be worried in the palace every day, but what about Xuanying? 】
[It’s okay, maybe Xuanying will forget about me in a few days]
So when Pei Yan asked him if he wanted to buy some candied haws, Lu An hesitated.
Lu An said to Pei Yan, "Sir, there are too many people here. Please wait for me on the bridge. I will come over after I finish shopping."
Eunuch De saw Lu An's guilty conscience and sighed softly, hoping that Lu An could be smarter.
Lu An watched Pei Yan and his group walk towards him and onto a bridge in the distance.
Lu An took a look at the alley, hesitated for a moment, and then quickly ran in. He was so nervous that he didn't dare to look back until he rushed out of the alley and ran to another street. Then he looked back and saw that there was no one behind him, only the alley was still pitch black.
What Lu An didn't know was that Long Qi was looking at him fearfully above his head. Long Qi only hoped that the little eunuch could figure it out on his own and go back. After all, the emperor who held the power of life and death over the world was never a good-tempered person and would not allow anyone to disobey him.
Pei Yan was standing on the bridge at this time, looking at the stall in the distance with a gloomy look. Lu An was no longer there. Of course, he had gone to buy other things.
Pei Yan now thought darkly in his heart: If he really leaves, then I will arrest him and lock him up in the palace for life.
Pei Yan now didn’t know why his possessiveness was so strong. This emotion came out of nowhere. He just stared at the alley, hoping that Lu An could come out by himself.
Just when Pei Yan's patience was running out and he was about to order Long Qi to capture Lu An, he saw Lu An walking out of the alley holding a kite. He walked to the stall and bought two candied haws before walking towards Pei Yan.
The moment Eunuch De saw Lu An, the breath he had been holding finally cleared up, and he patted his chest. The pressure on the emperor's chest just now was really frightening.
Lu An came to Pei Yan and said, "Have you been waiting for a long time?" He scratched his head and said, "I saw some kites for sale in the alley over there and I thought they were nice, so I went to take a look."
Lu An smiled awkwardly, "Hahaha."
Pei Yan ignored the kite that Lu An handed over and just said, "It's not too late at all."
Since you are back, stay by my side forever. Pei Yan wanted to let Lu An go for a moment just now. He had to fight and grab everything by himself in his life, but suddenly he thought, why not let Lu An go? But when he saw Lu An coming out of the alley and coming to him, it turned out that Lu An didn't need it. Lu An was willing to stay by his side.
Lu An:?
In fact, when Lu An stopped outside the alley, he wanted to leave, but when he saw the dark alley and looked at the brightly lit streets, he suddenly couldn't bear to leave. He couldn't bear to leave Xuan Ying, or you could say he couldn't bear to leave Pei Yan. The greatest helplessness in life is reluctance to leave.
The first twenty years of his life seemed to be that dark alley. He always walked alone. He was too lonely. Coming here and meeting Pei Yan and Xuan Ying felt like redemption.
So Lu An's heart told him that he wanted to go back to that person. After all, the Flower Festival tonight was not over yet.
