Heartbreaker

When the Winter Ting Legion returned to the Imperial City, thousands of people drooped their eyes in silence, pushing a cart loaded with keels and the coffin of Prince Airon, like a silent funeral.Although the expedition to the Peak of Soul Embers was a complete victory, the army lost a total of 100 people, and even resulted in the death of the prince. Everyone was deeply worried.

The disaster removed the shadow of the giant palm from the skies of the Wanjiang Empire.The whole country mourned for a month because of Prince Airon's death.

King Saul lost his beloved son, was distraught, and still kept his spirits up, held a banquet to thank the warriors who set out on the expedition, and promised to award corresponding honors and meritorious deeds.

Luo rushed to the palace as soon as he learned that the legion was returning to the city.He has been thinking about Lemon for many days, and his handsome face looks a bit haggard.However, as soon as he arrived at the palace, he was stopped by the ministers to discuss the important matters of Prince Airon's funeral, and he couldn't get away to visit him.

At the same time, Lemon hid and never showed his face on any occasion.Luo got the news that Prince Lemon was safe and sound from his mouth, and felt relieved, so he could only spare his energy to attend Prince Airon's funeral.

"Prince Airon passed away early this time. The heir to the throne of the empire should belong to Prince Lemon, right?"

"I think it's settled. Marshal Dong Ting praised His Highness the Prince's bravery in front of His Majesty, saying that if the little prince hadn't turned the tide, the outcome would be unpredictable."

"Prince Airong's death has dealt a great blow to His Majesty. He has been in a trance for a while, and I think he is tired. It is estimated that within a few years, the throne will be passed on to the prince."

"Prince Lemon is wise and kind, I think he will be a wise king..."

After the funeral, a lively banquet was held in the imperial palace, together with a ten-day victory celebration for the entire empire, to celebrate the Winter Ting Army.The Wanjiang Empire reappeared with laughter and laughter, and the lights stayed up all night.Floats parade day and night for the celebration, throwing down bright rose petals, and major circuses set up tents in the center of the city, performing fire-breathing magic tricks, and choreographed an opera dance from "Dragon Quest".

People playing music, carnival, singing and dancing can be seen everywhere in the block.Dozens of salutes fired colorful fireworks into the sky, and the snow-white beer foam and golden coins illuminated the dark night.

At the same time, in the palace, the banquet was in full swing.Luo shunned several nobles who invited him to drink, and swept through the crowd, but still did not find the shadow of Lymon.

He slipped out of the hall, and the cool night wind brushed over his hot cheeks, dispelling the greasy breath.Luo walked along the silent corridor to the prince's bedroom, and saw that the window of Lemon was drawn with a gauze curtain, and dim light was shining through it.

—Knock knock knock.

There was no answer, and the room was eerily silent.Luo knocked again and called softly, "Lymon, it's me."

There was finally a movement in the house, and Luo heard the rustling sound of cloth rubbing against each other.He was thinking about what to say when he met Clement, when the door was suddenly opened.

Lemon looked at him drunkenly, stubble appeared on his chin, he held a bottle of whiskey in one hand, his solid chest was exposed under his open shirt, and he stepped on the floor with bare feet.Luo walked into his room, smelled the smell of wine in the room, and saw a hill of wine bottles in the corner.

"Lemon, this..."

Luo frowned slightly, just as he was about to ask what happened, when Clement hugged him from behind, he cupped his face and kissed him involuntarily.The acrid smell of alcohol made Luo dizzy, and he fell limply on the bed, while Lei Meng hugged him tightly, his body was as heavy as iron, motionless.

After a long time, Luo heard the other party's low sobs.

"Lemon." He stroked the other person's back, just like before, and asked gently, "Why don't you go to the celebration banquet? Everyone is talking about you, the brave Prince Lemon, the future King Lemon. "

"...King Lemon?"

Luo Dao: "As long as you think about it, you are the future king."

"King?" The other party laughed at himself bitterly, "I'm not a pathetic outlaw, how can I be a king?"

Surprised, Luo held up Lemon's face, and saw tears on that flushed face.

Lymon stared at him, suddenly shed tears, whimpered, and shook his head to avoid his sight.

Luo looked at him and said, "What happened on the summit of the ashes, Clement? Did you really kill the dragon?"

"I didn't kill the dragon." Lemon said, "I killed... myself."

He looked at the silver-haired man with red eyes, and said in a trembling voice, "Do you know, Luo. I saw..."

"I am the real dragon."

Luo was startled, and his pupils flashed a little bit of astonishment.Lemon pressed his forehead against the cold neck of the other party, and said in a hoarse voice, "Besides, there are many... memories of me being 'Lemon Bone Spur'... that red-haired evil spirit, he appeared It's flooding into my memory..."

He staggered to the window, staring at the phantom on the window glass, his eyes were red: "When I feel his love and hate, this world is no longer what I see. I thought I'm lucky, but it's just another form of misfortune. Am I really 'Lymon Thor'? If so, who is that bloody 'Lymon Bone Spur'? The memories he brought me So vivid, even more real than reality.

"In the past few days, I have repeated his memories, his scars, and his dying roar over and over again. I am almost going crazy. I am enjoying the sunshine in the bright greenhouse, but I have forgotten the bone-chilling temperature of the abyss.

"I'm a vagrant who fights with dogs in Huapai Town, not a prince; I'm a tyrant who destroyed Vulture City, not an heir to an empire; I'm that experimental subject who was living in a rat cage, not a brave man who saved everyone..."

As he spoke, his fists trembled and he pressed against the thick glass, tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.

"No matter how beautiful it is, so what..." the blond prince cried, "It's all...fake..."

A hand hugged him from behind.

Clement trembled all over, weeping uncontrollably.He turned around, hugging that warm and dry body tightly, tears soaking through the other's robe.

Clement whimpered, "I used to be an unforgivable, filthy murderer, a shameless scum who inflicted anger and hatred on the whole world... I was ugly and crazy, just like a bug in the gutter..."

"Lemon, look at me."

Lei Meng raised his blurry teardrops, wiped away the tears with his hands, and saw his own face in those blue eyes.

"Tell me." Luo said, "Is he holding a machete, with blood spattering, and a long-lasting anger lingering on his heavy back?"

Lemon nodded slowly.

"Tell me again." Luo said, "Does he pluck the strings, sing the light, and his broad chest is full of courage to go forward?"

Clement's eye circles were red: "Luo..."

"You are indeed 'Lymon Bone Spur'." Luo said softly, "but you are also 'Lymon Thor'. You are the one who kills, you are the one who is affectionate, you are the one who indulges, you are the one who regrets... Silent Night is you , Li Xiao is also you."

"Whether it's hate or love, blood or kisses, darkness or light..."

"You are the law of destiny, the center of the world, the only one I love deeply."

****

The quiet moonlight sprinkles the long river, the darkness dissolves the whisper of the breeze, and the thin clouds are like the white gauze on the head of a woman, gently covering the end of the vast galaxy.

The candles were extinguished, and the night wind was cool. With a light tug of Clement, the ribbon fell from Luo's silver-white braid.

The figures of the two were hidden in the darkness, and Lei Meng stared at Luo's face, caressing that fair skin, as if he wanted to imprint every trace of each other's outline in his heart.

Silver hair rippled on the soft velvet bed like water waves.Luo Shu stretched out his stiff shoulders, and suddenly felt two points of coolness falling on his side cheeks, like falling pearls.

He opened his eyes and saw Lemon's face wet with tears.

"What's the matter?" Luo held Lemon's face and wiped away those wet tears for him.Clement shook his head vigorously, and said with a choked smile, "It's nothing, Luo...just, I just..."

For this moment, they have waited too long for each other.

Luo smiled slightly, stood up, and pressed a kiss on Lemon's face.

"I love you."

He was taken aback, dazed for a long time, before realizing that the words were not from his own mouth.He looked at the person in front of him, and only saw the other person's eyes that were brighter than the stars, and a smile that was bright enough to illuminate everything.

"I love you, Ro."

With a smile, Clement held the silver-haired man's dazed face, and there were still wet tears in the corners of his eyes, pressing against his forehead.

Night and moonlight flowed from their interlocking fingers.

"I love you. Lemon Arlo, I love you and always will."

Four years later, King Sol died of illness, and Prince Lemon Sol became the new king of the Wanjiang Empire with the support of everyone.

On Enthronement Day, the king is crowned by Bishop Ro Born himself.It is said that the day was unprecedentedly grand, with clear skies, ribbons, flowers and colorful soap bubbles flying all over the sky.Everyone sang and bowed. King Saul, dressed in a fur coat trimmed with gold thread, knelt on the high platform of ivory pillars inlaid with gold, silver and agate, and accepted the golden crown on his head.

"May the Wanjiang Empire be bright forever!"

The enthusiastic voices of the people were like surging waves.Everyone was immersed in joy, and they didn't realize that their king half-knelt on the ground, quietly took the bishop's hand, and kissed the other's palm.

Half a year after the new king ascended the throne, Luo resigned from the church.He gave up the position of bishop to Wash Polu, and only took up his post as an idle bachelor, staying in the palace all day to accompany Raymond.

He saw that the other party handled affairs big and small proficiently, as diligent and responsible as the 16-year-old king in Vulture City back then, but with a more generous temperament and gentler methods of dealing with problems.

Every night, he would wait in the bedroom, watching the last candlelight for Lei Meng, watching him with the moonlight on his shoulders, his clothes condensing the chill of the night, and hugging himself into his arms with a smile.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye in the plain and warm time.

Luo looked at the sky, the sun and the moon alternated, and day and night alternated, and occasionally a deep nostalgia and sadness surged in his heart.He didn't forget the remnant body in the cave, and he didn't forget the price he had to pay for tampering with the laws of the world.

This world is peaceful and warm, but he doesn't know where his destiny will lead.

【Being with Lemon, I have been happy for a long time.No matter what happens, there are no regrets. 】

On the day of unraveling the depression in his heart, Luo faced a large floor-to-ceiling mirror, pushed his long hair back, rolled up his cuffs, and saw himself in the mirror.

The outline of his arm is fading.

****

He couldn't hide the fact that his body was weakening.

Luo remembered the panic and shock when Lemon raised his arm. He was so panicked that he almost fell off the bed, hurriedly wrapped his robe, and rushed to the door to call the court physician's name.

"What exactly is going on?!"

Luo lay peacefully on the bed, letting the doctors look left and right at his faded arm, puzzled.He didn't hear what the others said, but only one thought came to his mind, and he felt inexplicably at ease.

It turned out that this was the price he paid for tampering with the world.

Great, Lemon won't be hurt in any way.When he completely disappeared in the world, it is estimated that the fusion will be successful.At that time, Lemon will wake up, be reborn, have the most complete body and soul, and will no longer be displaced.

Luo thought comfortingly, and suddenly burst into tears.

This time, he really couldn't accompany Lemon.

News of King Saul's summoning of the Physician quickly spread throughout the country.The king sincerely promised in the reward list that as long as he can cure the strange disease of Bachelor Luo Bowen, medicine or magic, no matter what method is available, as long as it is effective.

Every day, there is an endless stream of doctors in the imperial palace, eager to try to cure the illness of Grand Bachelor Boen.But Luo was calm and peaceful about it, smiling and leaning on a deck chair all day long, basking in the sun in the small garden.

Since his body faded, his lethargy has also become apparent.But no matter how deeply he slept, as long as Lei Meng called, he would definitely wake up.

King Sol was full of sorrow, unwilling to be separated from the other party, and gradually neglected government affairs, which caused dissatisfaction among many ministers.

"In the future, I want to choose a qualified heir from the collateral clan to inherit my throne."

Clement held Luo's hand, looked at the other's pale cheeks and tired eyes, and said with a smile, "Don't look at me like that. I don't want to marry other women as queens. I will let them down and burden myself... yes So what if it’s not the blood of the royal family? As long as the other party is wise and down-to-earth, handing over the king’s cane to him is also an explanation to the people.”

Luo smiled slightly, and just about to say something, he suddenly let out a painful snort, and the black gore crawled along the blood vessels in his arm.

Lemon's eyes widened.The doctor who gave Luo the needle was startled when he saw this, and said in shock: "Sorry, Your Majesty! There may be some omissions, I—"

There was a loud bang, and the doctor was beaten bloody by the king's furious punch, screaming again and again.Seeing this, the guards of the palace surrounded him, and Clement said angrily, "Drag him to me and put him in a prison for torture! Ask him if he is a spy who intentionally framed Bachelor Born!"

The man screamed and was dragged down by the guards, trying hard to justify that he had made an inadvertent mistake.Clement turned a deaf ear, and only rushed to Luo's side, sucking out the pus and blood with his mouth.

Looking at this scene, Luo stood up weakly: "Lymon, you don't have to do this..."

"Do not talk."

It was only after seeing the opponent's arm back to its original color that Clement breathed a sigh of relief.He sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, looking at Luo's pale skin, with his head drooping and tears streaming down his face.

"Don't cry, Your Majesty..."

Lemon nodded desperately, wiped away his tears indiscriminately, held Luo in his arms, and sobbed endlessly.Luo comforted his crying lover, and said, "Lemon, that doctor is innocent... I can feel it, he didn't want to harm me... Please let him go."

"Okay," said the king, "I promise you."

That night, the jailer beheaded the doctor, while the king stood outside the prison, watching.

"Your Majesty." A courtier said anxiously, "Many doctors now know that Bachelor Born's strange disease is difficult to cure, and they are afraid to avoid it. In this way, I am afraid that no one will treat the Bachelor soon."

"Is it?"

King Lymon watched the blood stains in the prison calmly, and said coldly: "Decree it secretly, and don't let the bachelor know... All doctors avoid treating patients, and don't care about killing them."

In this way, under the secret order of the king, doctors from all over the empire had to go to the royal city to treat the bachelor.They put on a look of concern in front of Luo, but they were terrified in their hearts, for fear that the king's butcher knife would fall on their heads.

At the same time, King Sol also became more and more surly in the anxiety of his lover's serious illness.He ignored the government affairs for many days, stayed in the bedroom, and was criticized by the ministers, but he was violently suppressed, as rude and barbaric as if he had changed into a different person.

As for the doctors who consulted Luo, if there was a slight mistake or impatience, they would be dragged into the dungeon and executed in secret.

All of this was secretly carried out by Lei Meng behind Luo's back.And Luo was sleepy all day, but he didn't know it at all.

This state of affairs lasted for nearly a year, and the power network within the empire suddenly became precarious.Many people are dissatisfied with the current king, and some even think that Luo Bowen is the culprit of all hidden dangers, and want to send an assassin to assassinate the seriously ill bachelor.

Rumors were spreading in the palace like a plague, and at this tense moment, someone suddenly said that the strange illness of Bachelor Born had disappeared.
