Chapter 18: The Wishful Thinking Clangs
A black dragon gasped for breath in the endless darkness, with no one to talk to, no one to accompany him, not even the slightest sign of life around.
The woman in the picture sleeps peacefully, occasionally laughing, as if she is having some kind of sweet dream.
The black dragon looked at her silently, as if looking at her like this, and the endless dark night was also full of hope.........

The news of Princess Pingyang's return to the palace last night did not reach the emperor's ears, but Pingyang thought that he had not seen his father for several years, and he had to prepare a surprise.
So he woke up early the next day, dressed up, and ordered the imperial dining room to make the emperor's favorite pastries.
According to the habit of my father in my impression, I usually went directly to the imperial study after the early dynasty.
Outside the door of the imperial study, Princess Pingyang walked in lightly, stretched out her hands, and blindfolded the emperor.
"It's getting dark," he said in a low voice, pinching his throat.
"Fooling around" The emperor thought it was a naughty princess, with a little reproach in his tone.
"My father is always so hard-working, you have to pay attention to take care of the dragon's body."
Princess Pingyang slowly let go of her hand, took the pastry in the palace maid's hand, and gently placed it on the table.
After the emperor saw the person in front of him clearly, a trace of surprise appeared on his face, "Pingyang ........"
Ping Yang was good-looking, a pair of watery eyes stared at the person in front of him who was called the Ninety-Five, his nose was sore, and tears rolled down.
"Father, I'm back"
The emperor's always majestic face had a feeling of pity, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back, I've suffered outside all these years"
"Pingyang is not bitter, but I miss my father day and night"
Pingyang raised his eyes and looked at the few strands of white hair growing from the emperor's sideburns, and his heart plucked, "But my father looks much older."
"My father is old, I can't compare to that year," he said, coughing a few times.
"Father, but the emperor is infected with the cold, do you want to pass on the imperial doctor?"
"It's okay, the imperial doctor has already seen it"
"Let's go, accompany me to the Imperial Garden for a walk, count the days when your favorite peony should be opened" The emperor put down the fold in his hand, his face was full of joy.
"It's still my father who loves me the most, knowing that I love peonies, and there are four seasons in the imperial garden"
"I just thought that if you suddenly came back one day, it would be nice to see it."
Pingyang held the emperor's hand, his eyes flashed, and he looked very good.
Pingyang was born as good-looking as her mother, with thin willow eyebrows, a very nice whisper, and a heart-shaped face with two big watery eyes like elves.
"Pingyang is really a female college eighteen changes, my father almost didn't recognize it just now, but he was too thin, there were only bones left on his body, and he wanted to eat more when he returned to the palace" The emperor looked at Pingyang, pinched her shoulders, and cherished his daughter like a normal father.
"I know my father," the girl's bright eyes made people unable to take their eyes off.
"You will be in time on the fifth day of the next month, you should be an adult," the emperor looked into the distance and said thoughtfully.
"It's time to find a wishful man, I think the son of the Zhao family is good, both civil and military, and he is also upright, and he doesn't have so many hearts........."
"Father" The woman lowered her head coquettishly, "I just came back, and my father wanted to drive me away, I want to stay with my father all the time, and I won't go anywhere"
"Silly girl, you are going to marry after all" so that your mother's concubine will not blame me in the spirit of heaven..........
"Father Hugh wants to say it again, Pingyang already has someone in his heart"
"Oh~ who is it?"
The girl stopped talking, but smiled in the depths of her eyes.
That's the person she liked since she was a child, and in the past few years outside, she often wondered if that person had become thinner, whether he had grown taller, whether he had ..... Occasionally, I think of myself.
So when the time came, I returned to Lin'an non-stop, but I never thought that when I arrived in Lin'an, I heard that he was going to marry someone else, and I felt a little lost, but what does it matter, I can also be the side princess, as long as that person is him.

Didn't rest well last night, Feng Qiwu stared at a pair of blue eyes, a little listless.
"Miss, why don't we go back first" Ning Er looked at her worriedly, for fear that her own young lady would fall to the ground in the next second.
"Don't, that Feng Wan'er is chattering in my ear all day long, and my ears are about to become calloused."
I really don't know what is in her head, she will be uncomfortable if she doesn't trouble herself for a day, and she will ask her father to promise her a marriage and marry her, so that my ears will be clean.
The two of them walked one after the other, and suddenly saw a familiar figure in front of them, and Feng Qiwu immediately sobered up a lot.
Pulling Ning'er, the cat bent on his waist, hiding behind the hawker.
"Ning'er, are you not optimistic about the auspicious day of the zodiac when you go out today, why did you meet this nemesis again?"
Ning Er looked aggrieved and couldn't justify it.
Feng Qiwu quietly stretched out half of his head, wanting to see if the person had left, but he was frightened by a face that was magnified ten times and stumbled and fell to the ground.
"Am I going to eat people, the old man will avoid me if he has a vision"
Feng Qiwu stood up, patted the ash behind him, and simply sat on the stool next to him, "Don't eat people, but it's okay to meet you."
No, as soon as the words fell, a runaway carriage rushed towards Feng Qiwu quickly.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, the horse is frightened.........." the coachman yelled at the top of his voice.
"Miss, run."
Feng Qiwu looked at the carriage roaring towards him fixedly, panicked for a while, and forgot to run.
Murong Jingyi flew on the horse at this time, trying to control the frightened horse, but it didn't work at all.
It's getting closer, it's getting closer, I'm afraid that this foot will have to be crippled if you don't die........
The panicked sounds around were all blocked by Feng Qiwu, and there was only the sound of the wind in his ears.
Everyone held their breath, and the horses crashed into the wall and fell to the ground in all directions, dusty.
Murong Jingyi's heart sank, and he looked at it, where Feng Qiwu was originally standing, where there was still a figure, as if he had disappeared out of thin air.
Ning Er cried and ran over, "Miss, Miss....." No one responded, it couldn't be that she was knocked away, right?
Feng Qiwu only felt that his waist was tight, and the whole person was fluttering, and when he came back to his senses, he had already landed on the eaves.
After seeing the person who came, his slender arm hugged Su Qinghan, "Master.........."
"Master, I was scared to death just now, I thought I would never see you again"
The woman's shoulders in her arms shook and cried aggrievedly.
Su Qinghan's heart tightened, and he looked at the person under the wall coldly, eager to throw him far away, so that he would never see Feng Qiwu again.
"Qi'er, with me, it's okay" The low voice was a little regretful.
Murong Jingyi looked around, and with a glance of his eyes, he looked at the eaves opposite, the familiar figure, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, it was fine.
The good-looking peach blossom eyes lost their look and were a little swollen.
Feng Qiwu tugged at Su Qinghan's sleeve, "Master, I want to go down"
"Good"
Gently landed in front of Murong Jingyi, without saying a word, handed him a big white eye, and returned to Fengfu.
I must go to the palace today and ask the emperor to take back my life, otherwise I don't know how I will die one day.
Feng Qiwu asked Ning Er to change her clothes, and after a simple dressing up, she decided to enter the palace to face the saint.
"The master doesn't stop her?" The shadow appeared behind Su Qinghan at some point.
"It's okay, Qi'er knows the proportions, can the palace be arranged?"
"Well, presumably Princess Pingyang has already eaten it"
"That's good, there is Princess Pingyang in the palace to help you, and nothing will happen to Qi'er" Su Qinghan's lilac eyes were shivering.
The shadow disappeared and disappeared again.
The guards outside the palace gate also recognized Feng Qiwu, and they didn't stop him and let him into the palace.
At this time, in the imperial study, Princess Pingyang was pinching the emperor's shoulders.
A sharp voice sounded outside, "Your Majesty, Feng Qiwu asks to see"
"Let her in," a deep voice sounded, with a bit of majesty.
As soon as Feng Qiwu saw the emperor, he knelt down straight, and a pair of good-looking peach blossom eyes were filled with tears, "The little girl knocked on the emperor and begged the emperor to take back her life"
The emperor and Princess Pingyang looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.
"You get up first, and if you have something to say, speak slowly," Pingyang said softly.
Feng Qiwu didn't mean to get up, and then said, "Thanks to the emperor's grace, the little girl was given to King Rui, but the little girl was not blessed, and she was really not worthy of King Rui, and I asked the emperor to take back his life."
"What happened, you tell me slowly, did King Rui bully you?"
Feng Qiwu shook his head vigorously and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes at will." The emperor doesn't know, since I was a child, I have been at odds with the king of Rui, as soon as I meet his little daughter, my life is in danger, so in order to live a few more years, I am far away from the king of Rui, but I don't know why the emperor suddenly gave me to marry the king of Rui, the little girl thought that the grace was difficult to disobey, so she tried to get along with the king of Rui, but I didn't know that every time I met him, nothing good would happen, my father only had two daughters under his knees, the little girl and the younger sister, and the little girl also wanted to be filial in front of her father, so she dared to ask the emperor to take back her life."
"Presumptuous" The emperor slapped the table suddenly, which frightened Feng Qiwu's heart.
"This is simply nonsense"
"If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can ask the people, and the people have seen it with their own eyes"
Pingyang's eyes on the side were shining, isn't this a God-given opportunity?
"Father, when Pingyang entered the city yesterday, I also heard people mention it, saying that the eldest lady of Fengfu and King Narui are really not a good couple, and now Miss Feng has risked death to enter the palace to speak, I am afraid it is really as she said."
"But this gentleman is not joking............"
"It's a beautiful thing for an adult to kiss, but it's not good, isn't my father pushing people into the fire pit?"
The emperor nodded, as if he agreed.
"It's just that I'm taking back the holy position now, I'm afraid it's not easy for this old prince Murong to explain" The emperor was a little embarrassed.
"If the father can trust his daughter, let her do it"
"Okay then, let Li Yu mimic the priesthood later"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Princess Pingyang"
Feng Qiwu didn't expect to be able to convince the emperor so easily, and couldn't help but feel a little happy, but he had to hold back, hold back, and his face still looked sad.
The palace people sent Feng Qiwu to the gate of the palace, and when they saw Su Qinghan not far away, they sped up their pace, jumped on Su Qinghan, and hugged his neck tightly, "Master, the marriage contract is dissolved"
Su Qinghan coughed softly, "Come down, what do you look like?"
"I'm not happy, am I?"
