[Day and Black] True dragons are not afraid of flames

Due to the disturbance caused by the ritual, he became lethargic in the tower, often falling into nightmares.Abandoned swordsmanship certainly makes people anxious, but what troubles Yan Sheng even more is that he can always see Yuanyi in his dreams.Most of the scenes took place in the long past, when Yuan Yi was extremely gentle, even too much for normal people to bear.

"Brother, why do those people beat each other?

"This is a martial arts tournament, where warriors compare their skills and decide the outcome." Yan Sheng explained to his younger brother that Yuan Yi had just been allowed to walk out of the tower after his mother's death, and he was still ignorant of everything in the outside world, and he was familiar with almost everything. Ask him everything.

"But that little samurai looks very uncomfortable..." Yuan Yi looked at the arena, "There's a lot of blood."

"There is always one side in a martial arts contest that will be very uncomfortable, but the outcome must be determined." He frowned, the little warrior was at a disadvantage and was covered in blood. For Yuan Yi, this scene was indeed too cruel.

"Obviously everyone can feel the pain of others...why do you want to hurt each other?" Yuan Yi asked.

Yuanyi's way of asking questions is always a little strange, making it difficult to answer.Yan Sheng thought for a while before answering solemnly.

"Yuanyi, even if some things are painful, in order to become the person you want to be, you must persevere. People can't escape just because they are afraid of pain."

The younger brother seemed to understand, but only looked at him with some admiration, "My lord brother is indeed very powerful..."

"Don't say that, my father taught me these things." He waved his hands a little embarrassedly.

Yuanyi lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head, "Brother, but I still don't want to hurt others, it's wrong to hurt others."

"..."

"You don't have to hurt others, I'm here."

Yan Sheng was not good at parrying children's weird questions, so he could only do it perfunctorily by stroking his brother's soft long hair.Fortunately, Yuanyi didn't dwell on this serious and boring question for too long, and the child's eyes were quickly attracted by the shining light on the other side of the competition stage.

"Brother, that sword is so beautiful..." Yuan Yi opened his eyes that are good at attracting affection, and shook his sleeves.

He looked in the direction of Twelve Years Old's finger. It was a Valyrian steel sword with a purple blade. With a stunning blue-violet luminescence.

"Can I have it?" Yuan Yi asked.

"That's the No.2 prize of the tournament." Yan Sheng explained, "You can't take it randomly."

"Brother, can you help me?" Yuan Yi looked at him expectantly.

He didn't want to take that sword for Yuan, each warrior could only get one loot, and the younger generation, Jiguo Yansheng, who had high hopes, only aimed for the long, crimson dragon flame and as luxurious as the sun in the middle of the sword stand. sword.Rather than being so cold and awe-inspiring, like a weapon to be hidden in the night.Besides, even if he really wanted to get the purple sword, he couldn't give Yuanyi the reward from his father directly.

But before he could utter a single word, Yuan Yi seemed to have read the shape of his lips, and made a look like he was about to cry.

"Don't be coquettish, you won't get anything by crying on the viewing platform. What you want, you have to work hard to get it." He resisted the urge to comfort his younger brother, and taught Yuanyi seriously, "Don't expect others to give it to you personally. for you."

As soon as the words fell, Yan Sheng felt that he was a little too much.Yuan Yi was brought to watch the tournament as a fiancée. My younger brother had never touched a sword, and he didn't need to become a warrior in the future, so he didn't need to be embarrassed like this.

However, Yuanyi thought about it:

"...Brother is right, then I can go to the martial arts competition, can I?"

He woke up from the dream and sat up suddenly from the bed.

The culprit who caused his madness was sitting quietly in front of the window, and the table was full of official documents, half of which had troubled Yan Sheng was buried at this moment.And Yuanyi didn't intend to deal with them immediately, he supported his arms with those official documents, and read a book seriously.

Under the moonlight and candlelight, the focused face of the Son of God made Yan Sheng lose his mind for a moment, and briefly forgot the long-term anger and jealousy towards his younger brother these days.It took Yan Sheng a while to stand up, and walked lightly behind Yuanyi, wanting to see what it was that made him so devoted.

The sound of the shackles and chains rattling betrayed him, Yuan Yi raised his head, "Brother, have you rested?"

"……when did you come?"

"Come here right after dinner. My brother has been exhausted recently, so I didn't dare to wake you up." Yuan Yi said, then glanced at the book in his hand, "After all, in order to consolidate the results of the ceremony these days, we..."

He didn't want to recall what happened these days, so he gave his younger brother a hard look.Yuan Yi immediately stopped talking, looked at him pitifully, and then looked down at the book.

"What are you reading?" Yan Sheng finally couldn't help asking, "It's rare to see you so absorbed in reading before."

Yuanyi still had that expressionless face, but he always felt that his younger brother seemed a little happy, "Brother hasn't taken the initiative to talk to me for a long time."

Yan Sheng immediately shut up.

"This book opened my eyes. I had never understood this before, which led to a lot of mistakes." Yuan Yi said, "My brother taught me to exercise my body and study hard. It really is true."

"Brother, do you want to see it?"

He nodded, Yuanyi clamped a fallen leaf where he was looking, and handed him the book with the book half open.

Yan Sheng took the book with both hands, and he should be more proficient in the things that are eye-opening for the children of God, and then he can--

A painted picture of two naked men overlapping and courting appeared in front of his eyes.

"Brother..." Yuan Yi came over with the book in his arms, and sat on the side of the bed, "Don't be angry, haven't you read these books before?"

"Besides, we are going to get married soon, shouldn't we learn this knowledge together?" The younger brother began to persuade with reason.Yan Sheng found that no matter how embarrassing and humiliating situation Yuan Yi would put him in next, his words could always seem to care about him.

However, this is also the disgusting part of Ji Guoyuan. At this point, he really still cares about his unpardonable brother.

That incomprehensible, too weak, mercy from the gods.

"The northern nobles with the furthest fief have also arrived at King's Landing." Yuan Yi said to himself, "Our wedding will be held soon."

"I won't hold any wedding with you. It's too late to change the bride now."

Yuan shook his head, "Brother, it's already too late."

"Not long before the explosion in the banquet hall, I had discussed this matter with Highgarden and the West Territory, and they are willing to talk to you at any time..."

"You need to attend the wedding with me." Yuanyi dropped the book, "Will you cooperate?"

"No," he repeated.

Yuan Yi simply ignored his answer, went to the window, took another stack of parchment, and unfolded it for him one by one.

"Brother, let's choose a dress. The wedding dresses of the queens in the past are no longer usable, so I asked them to help design a new one." Yuan Yi said, "Do you want to wear something similar to mine, brother? Or..."

"...Yuanyi."

The new king stopped flipping through the wedding dress design.

"Do you think that no matter how whimsical you are, I will definitely obey you, and there is nothing I can do about you?" He was like a snake that had been trampled by a farmer and finally seized the opportunity to fight back, spitting out venom quickly and viciously .

"The previous ceremony, and those absurd things... I can't stop you, and it doesn't matter whether I cooperate or not. But at the wedding, I need to show obedience and submission to you in order to prove to everyone that I am not against you and the Seven Kingdoms." No longer hostile. No longer a threat to the Iron Throne."

"Once I show disobedience...they will still insist on killing me. All the ridiculous tricks you use to save me will be ineffective."

Yan Sheng has never been so happy in a month, even though the reliance on this victory is also very humiliating.He straightened up from the bed and stared at Yuanyi firmly, while the benevolent new king fell into a moment of silence.

"I have other methods." Yuan Yi said, "Even if you don't cooperate, I won't let them succeed."

"You don't want to use that method." Yan Sheng said tentatively.

His younger brother was finally stepped on by him. Yan Sheng knew the only weakness of the invincible Sun. He didn't want to see people get hurt, let alone take too cruel measures.

"...Please don't be so stubborn, brother. It's our once in a lifetime wedding. I don't want to tie you down."

"Different from my brother, since I said so, I will definitely do it."

Is it a matter of going bound or going voluntarily?Yuanyi's words are as incomprehensible as they were when he was a child.But Yan Sheng can be sure that his younger brother did show a bit of embarrassment.He just had to wait a little longer for that embarrassment to reach its peak.

Finally, he said, "I can cooperate with you, but there are conditions."

Yuanyi's expression softened a bit, "It's good that brother is willing to calm down and talk, what kind of conditions?"

"...Give me back that dragon egg."

"..."

"Brother, even if I told you the truth about the hatching of dragon eggs like last time... are you still unwilling to give up?" Yuan Yi lowered his head and stared at the manuscripts of those dresses, his eyes seemed to be able to burn a hole in those overly exaggerated robes .

"That time was just an accident. Dragons were born endlessly in ancient times, and they don't hatch like that every time." He replied.

Yuan Yi sighed, "Brother, the successor country has been looking for a way to bring dragons back to the world for hundreds of years. You have been working hard to bring about this since you were a child. But the only time you succeeded, it only caused hundreds of thousands of people in the banquet hall. The tragedy of human death."

"Give up that dragon egg, brother. It's just a worthless stone. You have more to care about..."

The younger brother's words stopped abruptly, Yan Sheng got up suddenly, and rode on Yuanyi's body, holding his younger brother's shoulder tightly with both hands, almost pinching it with purple marks.He pressed the gentle new king under the soft quilt, leaned close to him, and asked questions with gritted teeth.

"Tell me, what else do I care about now?"

"Brother..."

"You've got wonders, you've got dragons, you've got everything I've ever had—and now you don't want me to want one of the same things, do you?"

"No, I—"

You just don't want to take innocent lives.True dragons in this world are not as important as a group of strangers, ignorant or vulgar mortals.You don't want to hurt everyone but me.For your brother has made a great mistake, and keeping him alive is the last of your kindness.So he doesn't deserve anything but life.The rays of the sun warm the Seven Kingdoms indiscriminately, and the madman who lives with him should not be shone more.

His Adam's apple rolled twice, swallowing all these nonsense words into his stomach.After a long absence, he looked down at Yuanyi condescendingly.And Yuanyi frowned in a rare way, as if he was facing some difficult decision.

"Yes, brother." After a while, Yuan Yi said, "I will give you the dragon egg."

Yan Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

"But if you can't find a normal method, you still want to use the same method as last time to hatch dragon eggs." The tenderness in Yuanyi's tone faded, "...I will punish you."

Those ruby-like pupils were looking at him, and their eyes shone with a cold light as sharp as a sword.The younger brother's hand slightly lifted, landed on the leg he was riding on, and then tightened slightly, Yan Sheng felt for no reason that Yuan Yi seemed to be holding a sword at this moment.He shuddered, recalling the chill that Yuanyi felt when he swung the knife at him for the first time.

Yuan Yi's temperament and posture when he held the sword were very different from usual, the softness and gentleness like a young deer in the forest disappeared, and his eyes were empty as if there was no emotion in them.His opening gesture was very quiet and unusual, without the majesty and momentum of an ordinary strongman, but it made people feel that he would be cut into two pieces in the next moment.Seeing through the sword path of the future as if guided by the gods, and the almost non-existent breath like deathly silence.Every time he confronted the sword, Yuanyi's completely different deterrence from other warriors gave Yan Sheng uncontrollable fear, and this fear excited him.

Subconsciously, he let go of the hand that was pressing on his younger brother's shoulder, and touched the sword at his waist.However the sword was no longer there.

Yuan Yi's cold deterrence dissipated instantly like morning dew.The younger brother regained his composure to a somewhat dull expression, and the hand that seemed to be holding a sword slipped to the base of his thigh, gently kneading the delicate soft flesh there.

"Since I have agreed to my brother, brother should also cooperate with me in preparing for the wedding."

It was only then that Yan Sheng realized that the posture between them was not good, and Yuan Yi seemed to start at any time.The subconscious mind in the lower back, which was too active yesterday, was a little sore.Yuanyi noticed his panic and smiled.

"What do you think, brother? Get off of me first, let's choose the wedding dress."

Under the blazing sunlight of Harrenhal, the purple Valyrian steel sword still reflected the cold light of the moonlight.

"...I go to the martial arts competition, is that okay?" Yuan Yi looked at it and repeated it again.

"Yuanyi, you have to fight against those adult fighters in the martial arts tournament, and you have never practiced swords..."

Yan Sheng had a headache, trying to persuade Yuan Yi to give up the purple long sword that was destined not to belong to him.However, my younger brother's talent in acting like a spoiled child is surprisingly high, and he couldn't bear to be stared at by those innocent and wronged red eyes for a while.

Yan Sheng had no choice but to untie a wooden sword and throw it to Yuanyi, explaining some basics.

If Yuan Yi can really learn one and a half moves, Yan Sheng thought.He can ask Yuanyi's opponents to hold back a little bit, so as not to seriously injure his novice brother.Those samurai should agree.

"Come here." He held the sword in both hands, "...at least you must be able to protect yourself, so I will let you sign up."

Yuan nodded and assumed an offensive posture.

On the last day before Ji Guoyan Sheng fell into madness, he saw a sword slashed across the sky under the scorching sun, as fast as lightning and as if granted by a god.
