emperor and dragon

After so many years, Xue Chan came back here.Everything in the past has long been annihilated.Everything in the other courtyard is also barren, it seems that the past, has only lived in his heart.

Xiangliu, I brought you back...

Under Tang Tian's shocked gaze, he set fire to the other courtyard.At that moment, Tang Tian understood Xue Chan's intention.Xue Chan wanted to remove those traces of Long Rui.The reason is not to prevent him from being depressed again, but to prevent those descendants from finding any excuses for Long Rui.Because, there are too many secrets in this other courtyard, and those things must not be known to the world.That being the case, Xue Chan chose to destroy everything, even if there was nothing left for him to cherish in the end...

But Nagasawa, it was too late.On the hesitant road, wishes have become slim.The wish has long since become impossible to realize.

Tang Tian followed Xue Chan, he had never been here, but he also heard from Xue Chan himself that it was the place where everything started.The memories here should be very beautiful. Although they had to disappear, Tang Tian understood that those memories would exist in Xue Chan's heart as his last memory.

Suddenly, Xue Chan in front stopped.finally reached.The beginning of everything, that perennially cold pool.That was the place where he and Long Rui first met. Now, he is the only one who has returned, and the other person is no longer there, or left him forever...

Heh... I thought everything would be in time, and everything I took for granted, now it seems that they are all so fragile, just like the fate and fate between them.It turned out that everything he did was so ridiculous.

Stay together, at least here, let me do this for you...

Under Tang Tian's surprised eyes, Xue Chan put Long Rui's body in the pool.Visible, that body slowly sank, never to be seen again.

The next moment, Tang Tian rushed forward and grabbed Xue Chan firmly: "What do you want!"

Xue Chan didn't answer Tang Tian, ​​but kept calling: "Xiangliu! Xiangliu! Xiangliu..." He kept shouting, and kept shouting, and finally, he became hoarse and made people look sideways.

Why bother, Nagasawa?That person has already left.Even though he was unwilling in every possible way, he reluctantly obeyed his fate. Human beings are all slaves of fate. Perhaps, since Long Rui chose to stay in the world, he, like everyone else, has become another insignificant pawn on the chessboard of God .Why did he choose this way?It's just that Long Rui has the courage to wither with love.

So, Nagasawa, I think Brother Rui never regrets staying by your side, never regrets... falling in love with you.Brother Rui, I understand what you said at that time.

Yeah, once in love.Everything else seems to be irrelevant.Brother Rui, don't worry, I have someone I love, and that person loves me very much.I will help you watch your Nagasawa, so please have a good life in heaven, don't worry.

After a long time, Xue Chan broke free from Tang Tian.Afterwards, Xue Chan said, "This place, from now on, will be called Xiangliu Pond..."

Then, he left without looking back.

Stay together, at least, let me have the last place where I can imagine you by my side again.The palace is neither yours nor mine.There, it was too painful, and all that was given to us was helplessness and hurt.

Actually, why?Shall we meet here, and fall in sad love?The past cannot be recovered, and the old friend... will not return it.

But Xue Chan never dreamed that when he returned to the imperial city, the news of Princess Hongyu's death would come.

what to do?Stay together.I... can't even keep your wife...

Xue Chan carried Longfeng into the palace and into Zilinju.He entrusted Xue Ting to An Biling's care, and now, he brought Long Feng here again.

Regardless of whether you are brothers or lovers in the future, there is only one thing that I hope you will remember.Don't hurt each other, there is a kind of inevitability, which is called overturning water, and there is a kind of delusion, called reunion after a broken mirror...

Time just flowed away silently, Meng Yu looked at the letter in front of him that he had read countless times, and sighed again.

On it is Long Rui's handwriting.

That was Long Rui's confession about himself, which revealed Long Rui's secret.Also, Long Rui's request.It seemed that Long Rui had envisioned many situations, including those that were impossible in the eyes of ordinary people, just like Long Shi's death in battle.

Long Rui begged him to be loyal to Xue Chan forever, take good care of Tang Tian, ​​and assist Xue Chan well, Xue Ting, if he is not dead, burn this letter or return it to him, if he dies, please take care of him Good for Tan Yinhong and his children, and bestowed the word "Jing Yuan" on Long Feng.

Long Rui found Tan Yinhong's happy pulse before he left for the expedition, but everything was too hasty, and he didn't have time to explain more.

Long Rui was like that sad moth, jumping towards the flame that wiped him out.Even so, until his death, he never regretted it.There may be many people like Xue Chan in the world, but maybe there will always be only one person like Long Rui who will be by your side, once you miss it, you will never come back...

I hope the Dragon Sacrifice in a month will go well, but this time, there will be no more dragons appearing...

In the ninth year of Tianrun, the dragon was sacrificed, and the tiger came to the world.

After the sacrificial ceremony, a man grabbed Xue Chan by the collar: "Why do you let him do so much for you! You are not worthy! Even if he asked me to assist your family, I would rather help your son!"

Xue Chan recognized that it was Long Rui's old tribe, Chai Xian and Chai Zeming, although they were of a different race like Long Rui, they were of a different tiger clan from Long Rui.

That's right, Chai Xian is right, he is not worthy.But his stay with each other is still as gentle as that of himself who is so inconsistent, those good things, those loves, seem to be monopolized by him alone.

Xiangliu, why do you fall in love with me... If you leave when I ascend the throne, will everything be different... But we can't do it all over again...

That night, Xue Chan seemed to have made some decision...

After that, nothing seemed to change until the 23rd year of Tianrun, when Xue Chan was 45 years old. In the year of Xue Ting, Xue Chan suddenly handed over the throne to the only prince, Xue Ting, and stopped interfering with government affairs.
