prisoner of time

Yan Tuo was calm and unruffled on the surface, but his inner abacus was crackling. Anyway, he didn't plan to give up his human beings in this life, and he didn't plan to find other human beings again.

Because the marriage proposal went smoothly unexpectedly, Shi Yan's previous preparations were all out of use at once, he took a while to realize the reality, took La Yantuo's hand and said: "Then, when are you planning to hold it?" wedding?"

"The sooner the better." Yan Tuo said without hesitation.He is not the kind of person who eats from the bowl and looks at the pot. Once he has decided on something, he will finish it without delay.

The news of their marriage set off wave after wave of public opinion on the interstellar world, but they did not receive much resistance—because there were very few people and things that could exert resistance to the two of them.

In this way, under the attention of all parties, the two resolved the problems of all parties vigorously and resolutely, and got married in the spring of the following year.

Life after marriage is also generally harmonious. His Highness the Crown Prince complained that his Crown Princess was too inhuman. Ever since he became a human, she has not treated him as tenderly and caringly as she did when she was a cat. She just hugged and kissed him every day. He's so hairy, he often tosses him to death; the more helpless thing about the newly promoted Crown Princess is that the Crown Prince often pretends that he is not completely human, and sometimes the two of them are half happy, and he sees Yan Tuo being bullied until the corners of his eyes are red. He looked distressed, so he let him rest and turned around to bring him water, and in a blink of an eye his prince turned into a kitten, lying lazily on the bed, no matter how much he coaxed him, he would not change back .

One day, Yan Tuo remembered Shi Jin's control of time again, and asked again the old question.Although he knew that Shi Yan was very good in all aspects, this incident was unbelievably beyond common sense.

Shi Yan thought for a while, kissed the tip of his nose and said: "Actually, I can't explain it clearly, it seems to be an innate ability. You just take it as, um, the special function I have for you."

What is a special function for me?Yan Tuo remembered the fifteen-page love letter he wrote in Mr. S's name back then, his ears turned red, he turned his head away, and didn't mention it again.

After Yan Tuo succeeded to the throne, Interstellar has entered an unprecedented "Great Interstellar Era" of peaceful development. The development of the Star Network and related technologies is getting faster and faster. The communication, logistics and personnel exchanges between various parts of Interstellar have become unprecedentedly convenient. Restrictions on travel between different regions are also being gradually reduced.

Thanks to the prosperous and developed social and economic environment, the field of science and technology has also ushered in a period of fruitful results. People's lifestyles and thinking habits are also gradually changing due to the advancement of science and technology. The trend of political and economic integration is gradually appearing in the interstellar world. Advanced artificial intelligence replaces the original manpower to serve human life and manage social order at the same time.

When mankind first entered the era of the great universe, it faced many interstellar threats. As a result, there appeared privileged classes such as the high-level federal military and the emperor who controlled the military power of the universe. In the new era of peace and stability, the rule of these classes And the basis of authority is gradually being disintegrated, and the monarch is becoming more and more like a symbol.

Yan Tuo followed the trend of the development of the times and announced his abdication on his 180th birthday. He had no son or heir in his life, and the monarchy of the empire was actually disintegrated.

After abdicating, Yan Tuo and Shi Yan returned to the Yuluo Galaxy to retire together.

Yan Tuo likes to turn into a cat and lie on Shi Jin's lap to bask in the sun. Shi Jin said that he "likes to act like a baby when he's old", and then scolded him while lovingly hugging him to bask in the sun.

One afternoon, Yan Tuo was lying in his arms as usual, but slowly closed his eyes under the warm afternoon sun, and gradually became silent.At first Shi Yan thought he was sleepy and fell asleep again, and patted him as usual, then realized something, kissed Yan Tuo lightly on the forehead, and held his paw.

After Yan Tuo sensed it, he reluctantly moved his paw, as if he wanted to shake his lover's hand, but he lost his strength halfway through.

The total time that a person can have is limited, the total time that a world can have is limited, and the time that a person can exist in a world is also limited.When time runs out, either temporary death passes away, or permanent death passes away, no longer exists.

The time of his life has come to an end.

Shi Jin gently shook his hand, and then slowly closed his eyes.

----------

This year's hot summer, Yan Tuo sat in the room very restlessly, finally stood up, changed into the white gold silk robes he went out, and told the attendants on both sides: "Go to the temple."

The young emperor arrived a little abruptly. He got out of the car, waved his hands to the guards on both sides, motioned to keep quiet, and walked into the temple accompanied by two attendants.

The master of the temple was standing in the courtyard with his hands down. He was wearing a silver robe with wide sleeves, and his long black hair was scattered around his waist.He looked up at the trees in the courtyard, and when a gust of wind blew, countless bedoro leaves fell, brushing against the corners of his robe sleeves, falling to the ground, and falling into his pale gray eyes.

At that moment Yan Tuo didn't dare to breathe, for fear of disturbing the scene in front of him.

But the man turned his head quietly at this time, and nodded slightly to the young emperor: "Your Majesty."

In the kingdom of time, from the emperors and officials down to the traffickers and pawns, the whole country believes in the god of time, and there are temples dedicated to the god of time everywhere.The largest temple is naturally in the capital, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter.As the spokesperson of God in the human world, Shiyan, the national teacher, also lives in this temple.

Yan Tuo restrained all the emotions in his eyes, and when he looked at the man again, he changed into the same respectful expression: "I've been restless recently, and I want to ask the national teacher to explain something."

Shi Yan led him into the inner hall, while Yan Tuo's two attendants stayed outside to guard.There were only the two of them in the room, and the smell of incense was particularly sticky because of the warm summer wind. Yan Tuo looked at the man who was close at hand from the corner of his eye, and his chest was almost stagnant and panting the moment the door closed. I can't breathe.

"What's there to be upset about, Your Majesty?" The man closed the door and sat back opposite him, with a calm expression and a slight concern in his eyes, but the concern did not exceed the rules.

Yan Tuo lowered his eyes: "Recently, I've always worried that my virtue is not worthy of my position, and I will be rejected by God."

"How could it be?" Shi Yan still looked at him gently and calmly, and said lightly, "Your Majesty knows what the essence of inheritance is? It's time. The wealth, status, and power left by our ancestors that we can inherit are all What they have accumulated by consuming their own time from generation to generation, everything we inherit is essentially inheriting time, but our inheritance status is not determined by us."

"Your Majesty has been a prince since birth, inherited the throne, and possessed supreme power and status. This is enough to prove one thing." His light gray eyes looked at Yan Tuo quietly and peacefully, and said seriously, "Your Majesty is favored by time. people."

Yan Tuo responded, looked at the man in front of him who did not look like an ordinary person, and asked his opinion on other recent state affairs, like a most diligent monarch.

He dared not say what he was really worried about.He was afraid of being rejected by God, and he was afraid of bringing disaster to his own country, but it was not because of the reasons he said, but because he had a crush on the man in front of him, the national teacher of the Kingdom of Time, who was regarded as the spokesperson of God in the world. Many men have obscene thoughts that cannot be expressed in words.He wanted to take this high and detached man as his own.

He is the king of the kingdom of time, and everything should be his.

But he dared not speak out, dare not teach others to know.The national teacher is the spokesperson of the gods and the messengers of the gods in the world. They cannot be tied to people in this mortal world, let alone have emotional or physical love.

Those thoughts of his are blasphemy.

He can have everything, but he cannot own the person in front of him.

He can only use this method to get close to the other party without any trace, trying his best to make the other party's eyes stay on him for a longer time, using some small tricks in exchange for a closer contact with the other party, as if casually seducing, But he didn't dare to exceed the rules, dare not go too far, and dared not be discovered by the other party.

What Shi Yan said was right, he was born as a prince, he had everything he needed and enjoyed all the glory and splendor since he was born, there is only one person or thing that he can't dream of in this world until now.

But he didn't know how long he could bear it.

He looked at the light-coloured lips of the other party, and wanted to kiss them; when he saw the silver-gray robes of the other party, he would want to take them off with his own hands; Love and hate desire karma, let him appreciate the enduring pain and indulgent joy, let him appreciate the obsession in the world of mortals and the insatiable desire, let him fall into the karma of this world forever, and it is difficult to escape.

Of course, let him belong to me.

The young emperor lowered his eyes to hide all the darkness in his eyes, and when he raised his head to look at the national teacher in front of him, he was still dignified and clear: "National teacher, I'm tired, let's go here first."

The man stopped talking, stretched out his hand to help the noble emperor up, opened the door with his own hands and sent him out.

The emperor nodded slightly, bid farewell and left.He was afraid that if he sat down again, he would not be able to hide.
