Dawn Sleep

It is said to be dormant, but in fact, several people know it in their hearts.With Jiang Jianming's current situation, there is no essential difference between death and death.

That little bit of hope is not so much for the commander, it is better for them who are left behind.

Even what Jiang Jianming said to Lin Ge was: "Just lie to him and coax him."

"When does he accept my departure, and then bury me."

No matter what the future holds, after capturing Ryan from the laboratory, Jiang Jianming finally enjoyed a short idle time.

The weather in the last few days was fine, and it was lucky for him to sit by the window and bask in the sun.

Jiang Jianming didn't worry about other things any more. He and His Majesty sat in the shade of flowers and talked, and sorted out the written books in the study.When he is more energetic, he will play with Seth who just picked him up. When he is tired, let Leian hug him and sleep under the afternoon sun.

all good.

It's just that Ryan's mood has been unstable, and Jiang Jianming wonders if some inexplicable switch has been turned on by His Majesty-crying at every turn!

This person was not like this before, he was obviously arrogant and cold-tempered, and he most refused to cry as a gesture of weakness.

It's all right now, he wanted to leave his last words, His Majesty lay on his bare brain as if he was going to cry or not, and refused to let him write; he said hurry up early or late, then prepare to go to sleep tomorrow, His Majesty immediately hugged him and sobbed Pharynx, say wait, wait, wait...

Jiang Jianming: "."

He understood it.It's true that Ryan is sad, but most likely he also used this to restrain his intentions, tsk, scheming...

Originally, he backed down because His Majesty was crying so pitifully, but in the end, he was manipulated.

"Oh, okay, okay..."

On the night before the hibernation was to be implemented, the two of them lay on the big bed in the emperor's bedroom and were intimate, rolling until the quilt was wrinkled.

Jiang Jianming nestled in Lai'an's heart dumbfounded, because his arms were wrapped around him and he couldn't move, so he could only use his calf to rub against him.

"If it drags on any longer, the effect of the medicine will be exhausted. Your Majesty is not willing to see me in so much pain before I die, right?"

"I know! You don't need to tell me."

Ryan gritted his back teeth, lowered his head and hugged the patient tightly in his arms, closed his eyes and murmured, "I won't cry tomorrow, so don't discipline me tonight."

As we spoke, another tear fell silently.

He knew that Jiang Jianming was right.Silver had already warned once, saying that it could not be delayed, and that after three or two days the side effects of the drug would start, and Jiang might die of pain, or die suddenly from organ failure.

Whether it is to ensure the implementation of dormancy, or for Jiang Jianming's final dignity and well-being, we must say goodbye tomorrow.

Jiang Jianming sighed, "Why do you cry so much, the pillow is wet."

He rubbed Ryan's neck, and suddenly paused thoughtfully.

"..."

Jiang Jianming tilted his head and looked at Ryan for a while, there seemed to be a few glimmers in his eyes.

He said, "Be good, stop crying, and let me give you a kiss, okay?"

For so long before, he refused to take this step.One is practical reasons. He is afraid that after formally forming a relationship with Ryan, His Majesty will stubbornly want to give him a public identity and cause unnecessary troubles.

Furthermore, he was really worried that he was not worthy of Ryan's passionate affection, and worried that His Majesty would miss his true lover.

But it's tonight.

He was going to "die" tomorrow, so he no longer had to worry about embarrassing Ryan.

He also saw clearly the emperor's obsession with him, and he didn't expect Ryan to empathize with him after he left.

Or in other words, since His Majesty can be so paranoid for his lover, if Leanne falls in love with another person in the future, it is impossible for a dead person to hold him back.

So Jiang Jianming smiled, waved to the bewildered Ryan, and asked with a wink, "Do you want it?"

Yes, of course.Ryan immediately came over, with teardrops still pitifully on his eyelashes, and chirped in his palm.

"..."

"Not so dear, Your Majesty."

Jiang Jianming was angry, funny, and distressed.He touched Ryan's face, and put his other hand on Ryan's shoulder lightly.

"Do you want me to teach you this too?"

The window glass of the White Jade Palace reflected two figures approaching a little bit.There is moonlight outside the window, and the moonlight flows on the golden roses.

Only then did Ryan realize what Jiang Jianming meant.

He opened his eyes wide in disbelief and held his breath.

thump, thump—

The heart suddenly started to speed up.

"Wait," the emperor suddenly retreated, his eyes dodging in a panic, "you don't have to..."

Jiang Jianming shortened the last distance.His five fingers went through the platinum curly hair and clasped the back of Ryan's head, and put his lips on Ryan's.

"...!"

When the moonlight kissed the golden rose goodbye, they embraced and kissed too.

That was the first and last tenderness between Jiang Jianming and Kaios, the emperor and commander of the empire, which took place in the unknown depths of the palace.

They kiss, and just kiss.Occasionally, a few traces of sound came out between the teeth and tongues, and they were also very weak, as if just kissing had exhausted a lifetime of strength.

This feeling is like being drunk, everything is blurred, they hold each other tightly when kissing, body temperature, heartbeat, texture, burning hot, cold, everything is engulfing the senses endlessly.

"Jiang," the young emperor choked up, holding his lover's face in his hands, "Do you know, do you know..."

"I know, I know everything." Jiang Jianming tremblingly said, "Your Majesty, Ryan... I will always be by your side, watching you forever, regardless of life or death."

So don't cry, don't be afraid of parting.

From trivial to intense, they fell entangled while panting, fell to the depths of the universe, and were caught by the starry sky as a flowing silver blanket.The sky is full of the brilliance of the moon, the brilliance of the sun... Finally, at the end of life and death, I heard the string music of love. Love surged like a warm tide, tenderly and sadly, merging them together little by little.Never leave, never leave.

"Anything else you want to do?"

After the end, Jiang Jianming lay on the bed and calmed down, his lips were rubbed with a bit of gleam, and finally no longer pale.

Ryan wrapped his arms around his waist, buried his face in his neck and rubbed it, and said in a sticky nasal voice: "That's enough, nothing else is needed."

But within a few minutes, His Majesty regretted it again.

Ryan said: "By the way, I still want to hear you say that word, tell me."

After the kiss, Jiang Jianming certainly knew what His Majesty wanted to hear.

He frowned and shook his head, with a sad expression: "Of course the verbal words are simple, but Your Majesty, I have never been able to fulfill the duty of a lover to you."

"Just like what you said last year, in the years before, I relied more on your strength and status..."

"No! No," Ryan's expression changed suddenly. He immediately pulled Jiang Jianming up and pressed him into his arms, hugging him tightly, "You planned to provoke me to say those words, you know it in your heart!"

He touched Jiang Jianming's right arm indiscriminately, caressing the injured place distressedly, "Don't you say anything else, forget those words for me, forget them now."

Jiang Jianming couldn't help laughing again.

"Okay," he said, "then I forget."

Ryan stopped making trouble and kissed him carefully again.Finally, she hugged him and lay down again, covered him with a warm quilt, and said good night.

The lights in the room went out.

==

The next day, the process of freezing and dormancy was carried out on the second floor of the White Jade Palace, in a large room facing the sun.

The same as the implementation method of Anle, the patient is first put into a deep sleep, and then the doctor and related technical personnel operate it.

Jiang Jianming sat by the bed, looked at the small tube of transparent medicine, and knew it was it.

When these medicinal liquids were injected into his body, he would fall asleep within four to five seconds.

Then, even if you bid farewell to this world.

It is a vibrant summer outside the window, and the sunlight in the room is just right.Dressed in neat clothes, Jiang Jianming thanked and bid farewell to the medical team that had helped him over the years.

Maria was crying so badly that Jiang Jianming gave her a bag of candy and asked her to take it back to her child.

Sensing the unusual atmosphere, the old dog Seth kept barking and leaning towards Jiang Jianming's bed.Jiang Jianming touched it, and finally threw a ball to it.

The golden sunlight flooded the floor, Seth wagged his tail and gasped for breath, and it took a few minutes to get the ball back tiredly.

"Wow! Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

It put the ball in Jiang Jianming's hand, stuck out its tongue happily, and when it looked up, its black grape-like eyes were dyed golden yellow by the light.

Jiang Jianming hugged Seth and kissed him, closed his eyes sadly, and said in a low voice: "Good dog, find a good master in your next life."

After so many years of fighting, he failed to accompany his dog well, and now he can't even send Seth to his death.

Sylph came over, she hung the liquid medicine on the shelf, her eyes blushed quietly: "Don't worry, Commander, we will take care of Seth."

Jiang Jianming nodded, "Take it away."

Maria came to lead Seth, but Seth refused to leave, whimpering against Jiang Jianming, and the collar was tightened.

"Forget it, I'll come." The commander waved his hand, and he picked up the dog's favorite toy ball, pushed open the window, and threw it from the second floor into the yard below.

He rubbed Seth's ears, as he usually gave instructions to it, "Be good, go play ball by yourself."

The old dog was tricked down, and the sound of patter disappeared at the end of the steps.Maria bowed deeply and left too.In the end, Ryan, Lin Ge and Sylph were left behind.

All three were in good spirits, and they decided to send Jiang Jianming to sleep in a more relaxed atmosphere.

Lin Ge put a red apple next to Jiang Jianming's pillow, smiling and remembering the time when she and him robbed garbage in the wild to eat.

"Dawn," she said with a playful smile, "when you wake up, I must be older than you, and I'll really be an 'old lady'... By the way, my old lady will call you 'Mingming' at that time, who told you to call me Mingming every day? The old lady is like a daughter training."

Sylph gave Jiang Jianming a needle in his right forearm, and put the switch of the infusion set next to his left hand, "When the commander is ready, just push this switch."

"Okay." Jiang Jianming nodded gently, the soft sky gave his thin face an almost holy brilliance.

Ryan helped him to lie down slowly, His Majesty really did what he said, he said last night that he would not cry today, and today he really calmed down.

"I forced you to stay for so long, I'm sorry." The emperor carefully trimmed the broken hair around Jiang Jianming's ear, and said in a low voice, "There will be no more pain in the future. Go to sleep and wait for me to wake you up."

Jiang Jianming grabbed Ryan's hand, "Then... I want His Majesty to be by my side when I wake up, is that okay?"

This is actually a kind of euphemistic hint. If Ryan can't wake him up in this life, there is no need to leave an old zombie to future generations.

Ryan: "Of course, I promise you will be in my arms when you wake up."

"Thank you." Jiang Jianming said softly, "When I die... Cough, don't announce the news of death immediately after dormancy, try to delay it until next year. It's too strange for the coach to die just after he left the battle. I'm afraid someone will talk about you."

Ryan: "Understood."

"That's it." Jiang Jianming lay on the bed, first looked at the Aslan Star City outside the window, and then carefully looked at the three people who accompanied him at the end.

Before his long sleep, he wanted to say good night, but it was not night, and it was not suitable for being sad.

"Good afternoon, don't feel sorry for me," so he smiled, "I am very happy in this life, no matter what time it is, there are always people around me who love me."

After saying this, Jiang Jianming pushed down the switch with a relaxed expression, as if the injection was just a daily nutritional injection.

The liquid medicine slides down quickly in the transparent syringe.

Suddenly, a distant bell rang.It is said that a new church was built nearby, and it turned out that today was the day when its bell rang for the first time.

In a trance, Jiang Jianming's hearing seemed to become extremely sharp.

He seemed to be able to hear the bells and the fluttering of the white dove's wings.The levitation train ding-ding runs across Star City, the babies born by mothers are crying, the branches are blooming, and the birds are leaving their nests.

No, he didn't hear it, he just imagined it.

All the future is far away, every second there are sprouts breaking ground, that is light, that is new life.

"That's right." The commander's eyes suddenly glowed with a clear light, and he looked at the emperor with a smile that was more touching than ever before——

The second the liquid medicine was injected into the vein, he smiled and said, "Lyan, I love you."

I love you, I love you.

My only eternal love, please accept the love I owe you half my life when the farewell bell rings.

As if hit by some invisible spell, Leian raised his head, opened his mouth in a daze, his emerald eyes shook violently...

Suddenly, Lin Ge let out a cry that sounded like weeping, and she pushed Lean hard, tears streaming down her face.

And the emperor finally woke up, grabbed the commander's cold wrist suddenly, and said, "Me! I also..."

But Jiang Jianming's eyes slowly closed, like peach blossoms being blown by the soft wind in the spring.There was still a gentle smile on the corner of his lips, which gradually dissipated like the ripples of the lake, leaving only a little bit of it, solidified into eternity.

He fell asleep in the bright summer light.

Tears dripped down the white pillow, and one drop fell on the red apple, reflecting the dazzling brilliance.

"I love you too."

Ryan gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. He raised his veined neck and said word by word, "Jiang, did you hear me, I love you..."

Lin Ge and Xi Erfu both burst into tears, but the man on the hospital bed never woke up to comfort the two little girls and stroke their hair.

Today is the same bright and warm afternoon as that photo shoot, but when Aslan leaves, a corner of the photo is forever missing.

It took a long time for the three of them to calm down. Lin Ge and Ryan came out, leaving Sylph to do the follow-up operations.

Suddenly, they saw Seth, and the old dog brought the ball up from the yard!

Ryan immediately closed the door.Seth drooped his ears, hummed, clawed at the door with his claws, still biting the ball in his mouth.

He still wants to play with Jiang Jianming.The ball thrown by the master must be returned to the master's hand... If possible, throw it again.

Lin Ge took a deep breath and turned his head away, unable to bear to look any further.The emperor half knelt down, hugged Seth's neck and said in a low voice: "Don't make trouble, he is sleeping, don't make any noise, shh..."

Seth understood.It spat out the ball, shook its body, and let out an aggrieved hum in its throat.

It doesn't know death, it just thinks that Jiang Jianming is really sleeping.Then it will be in the afternoon, evening, or even tomorrow morning, when the master wakes up to continue playing.

"Good dog, yes, when he wakes up," Ryan said in a low voice, his emerald green pupils were filled with a layer of mist, and there was no light, "I will still play with you."

This is the early summer of the second year of the new imperial calendar.

Seven months later, in the third year of the new imperial calendar, the empire announced the death of the founding commander Dawn Aslan.

The author has something to say:

Good afternoon, commander, the next time you wake up, it will be a bright new empire.

Commander: ...but the body is in the pile of living crystals. Thank you.
