Chapter 54 Obtained in a Dream
Murong Jingxuan didn''t think that he would hear such a story from Qingyan''s mouth. Rather than
saying it was dream, it was better to call it a story, a story that no one would believe.
But for some reason, he was willing to believe this story. Perhaps in the unseen world of spirits, the one
called Qilian Qingyan was carefully protecting this girl in front of him.
"I know you won''t believe what I said, because I also don''t believe it''s real." When Qingyan looked to
Murong Jingxuan, she reluctantly shook her head. "You probably think I''m insane to have said
something like that, but I''m not insane, in fact my mind is very clear."
Murong Jingxuan tightly grasped her hand and pulled her into an embrace, "I believe you."
His words involuntarily made Qingyan widen her eyes. In her mind, she knew very well that this was a
lie; a lie that she didn''t need to bring full circle in the future with more lies. Rather than saying Qilian
Qingyan was her past incarnation, it was better to say that everything was just a dream.
Because Qilian Qingyan has already disappeared from this world,pletely disappeared without
leaving a single trace.
"Why would you believe what I said? Or rather, you should think I''m a liar." Qingyan lifted her head up
to face him. Perhaps that warm embrace made her feel a bit at ease.
"I know it was a dream." Murong Jingxuan gazed at her as he stroked her delicate ck hair, "The first
time you were poisoned, I just knew that you must have experienced a nightmare."
Although he didn''t know what kind of nightmare the woman in her dreams experienced, but through
Qingyan''s expressions, he could vividly feel it. Moreover, it was more intense than before."
"Murong Jingxuan, you really shouldn''t believe what I say." Qingyan looked to him and held his cheeks,
"Are you not worried that I might be a messenger of death here to take your life."
Murong Jingxuan fixedly gazed at her and shook his head, "Little Yan''er, if you''re willing, whether it''s
heaven or hell, I''m willing to apany you for life."
Lifelongpanion, this promise seemed too heavy. Neither of them could predict what''s toe in
the future, especially since she was still living at the Su manor.
Su Yun was still stationed at Qinzhou; for the time being, he has yet to return.
But one of these days, she will let the entire Su manor fall into pieces.
"Murong Jingxuan, this promise is too heavy of a burden." Qingyan look to him, slowly speaking, "I
once thought of marrying someone that will stay by my side all my life, but this person, for their entire
life, can only love me. The love I want is ''eternal devotion*'', can you give me that?"
(*TN: The original phrase here was ''one life, one generation, one pair'')
Eternal devotion, even when she became Su Qingyan, she still longed for this kind of love. Weisheng
Junmo could give his life to only love her alone, but could Murong Jingxuan do it?"
"If this is the love you want, then why would I not fulfill it?" Murong Jingxuan let out a gentle smile, "I''m
willing to give you my eternal love."
Murong Jingxuan originally didn''t n on marrying anyone. His father the Wenxuan King also gave his
life to loving his mother, Zhongli Jingshu. He married Zhuo Yuping, only because he had a debt to
repay. But for him, he would never marry a woman he didn''t love for the sake of repaying a debt.
Eternal devotion was also the type of love he longed for.
He''d once thought of taking the hand of the person he liked and tread through thousand miles of
mountains and rivers. Together with him, travel the world hand in hand.
But he knew Xuanyuan Yuzhen''s dream, and he was willing to help Xuanyuan Yuzhen seize that
throne, even if Hongjia Emperor was currently still very healthy. He was willing to temporarily give up
on that goal for Xuanyuan Yuzhen.
If therees a day, where he could give up on thesends, then he was willing to take his beloved
and roam the world together.
"Jingxuan, once this kind of promise bes set in stone, you can only have me as your woman."

When Qingyan looked to him, she still had a serious look. "Will you really not regret it? If when the time
"Silly girl" Murong Jingxuan spoke as he held up her hand, "I, Murong Jingxuan, is wholeheartedly
willing to give up on all thedies in the world for you."
When Qingyan heard this, she felt reassured for some reason. She wrapped her arms around his waist
and rested her head on his chest. "Murong Jingxuan, I''ve said that I''m not a good person, if one day
you find some other girl, I will kill all those girls."
Murong Jingxuan lowered his head onto hers, "Don''t worry, if such a day doese, then I will cripple
myself."
At that moment, Qingyan suddenly felt that if there was someone willing to share her burdens in this
life, it wasn''t a bad thing.
Especially since this young man was her once best friend''s son.
"The seven toxins, I''ve already dispatched people to look for it for you. What kind of n do you have
next? I will help youplete them one by one."
Qingyan smiled, shaking her head. "The most important thing right now is to see how Ning Siyao will
act. But I remember that recently Su manor is having its annual incense burning ceremony. It should be
at Ganyun Mountain''s Ganyun Temple."
Murong Jingxuan listened to Qingyan and nodded, "This is Su manor''s yearly tradition. It''s to pray for
Su Yun, who''s far away in Qinzhou."
"This I know." Qingyan stood up and walked up next to the window, "If I''m guessing right, Chai Yiyun
and Ning Siyao both want to pick this time to act. As for who will act first, I don''t know."
After all, anything could happen on the moutain road on the way to Ganyun Mountain. However, she
never liked the unexpected, that''s why this time there won''t be anything unexpected either.
"Do you need me to send someone to protect you?" Murong Jingxuan smiled as he stared at her
gazing out the window.
Qingyan watched as the sky gradually grew dark and smiled, "No need, towards the trip to Ganyun
Temple, I still have a way to deal with it. Right now, I just need to think about how to deal with granny
Ruo."
"That old servant puts in quite the effort for Ning Siyao." Murong Jingxuan lied down on the reclining
chair and casually spoke. "When you go to Ganyun Temple to offer incense, I''ll look after everything in
the capital for you. Come find me if there''s anything you need help with."
"Naturally I''ll look for you if something happens." Qingyan turned around to Murong Jingxuan with a
smile, "Ning Siyao wants to kill me through granny Ruo. So why don''t I beat her at her own game and
send her daughter to the fire pits. After all, Yihonglou, that ce, I also know very well.
Yihonglou is Donghe''srgest brothel. It''s said that there''s no customers Yihonglou won''t ept. Plus,
the girls there were all skilled in the four arts; they''re said to be first rate ''Jieyu'' flowers*.
(*TN: A phrase to describe woman that not only were pretty, but also smart and understanding. Deng
Yan was also described as such.)
However, perhaps no one knows that Yiyhonglou was divided into six ranks. Among them, the women
of the lowest rank could only serve those men that only had pennies to their name. And most
importantly, those kind of men didn''t understand how to be delicate*. If a customer had a request, one
girl could serve ten people at the same time.
(*TN: This idiom means more along the lines of being able to sympathize with the fate of being a
woman, and to cherish a woman''s feelings.)
As for the lowest ranked women, when they died, their bodies were thrown into a pile and fed to the
birds and beasts.
Most importantly, women that were unwilling to serve customers, ording to the rules, were demoted
down the ranks one by one. And this rule was once set by Su Qingyan.
Ning Siyao, since you want to court disaster, then I will grant you that wish.
When the timees, you won''t even have a ce to cry.
