C307 In a Story

The dusk shrouded the city, and the twilight enveloped the city. Some people quietly retreated because of the sky, but most people chose to stay here.

It was hard to tell what kind of emotion forced them to stay. It was to witness the continuation of a good story, or it was just the beginning of a disappointing story.

Everyone wanted to know what kind of stunning man the young girl was waiting for, and what kind of charm he had by his side.

Right at this moment, the young girl's long eyelashes fluttered a few times. She stood on the bridge, smiling brightly and with a divine wound. That beautiful smile immediately hurt the eyes of many people below the bridge.

"He's here. "

The girl stood on the bridge and said.

As soon as her voice faded, the ground began to shake violently. Everyone followed her gaze and saw countless people moving in the distance. There was a group of over ten thousand people wearing multicolored clothes and stepping on dust. There was a huge Chu character embroidered on the flag, symbolizing their status. It was the Great Chu, the Imperial Family.

The young girl recognized the man at the front of the group, who was wearing a purple robe and fluttering in the wind. He was as carefree and unrestrained as he was three years ago. Looking at the familiar figure in his eyes, the young girl smiled silently. For a moment, her tears fell like spring rain.

Just like that, she waited for him for three years, and he didn't let her down in the end.

"I'm coming. " He held her hand and wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes as he had done three years ago when he had left.

This light sentence caused a commotion. Some of the merchants who came and went recognized his identity. Why would the new emperor who should have ascended the throne in the capital appear here today? No one knew. Gradually, a person knelt down and a group of people knelt down. . .

The entire arena was filled with people's cries. It was hard to tell whether they were excited or terrified. Behind him, tens of thousands of imperial guards dismounted in unison. Exquisite treasure chests made of jade were opened one by one. The items inside were arranged in a line that was as long as ten miles of street. The light emitted by the treasures pierced the eyes of everyone, although they couldn't call out their names. Without a doubt, every item in the chest was priceless.

That was the gift he had prepared for her throughout the night.

On the way back, the young girl snuggled in his arms, her eyes revealing pure affection for the person she loved.

"Have you ascended the throne?" The girl asked as she drew circles on his chest with her slender fingers.

He shook his head and looked at the girl gently. He smiled and said, "After we go back. "

"Ah! Today is the day you ascend the throne?" The young girl immediately covered her small mouth with her hands and became angry and funny. "How can you be so careless? You abandoned the emperor because you came to see me?"

He did not speak but held her tightly in his arms.

"Nothing is more important than you, not even the throne. "

After a long time, he whispered into the girl's ear.

The girl didn't know how important his words were until the end.

The competition for the throne had always been cruel. Every time the imperial power was alternated, there would be a storm of blood behind it. In his generation, aside from him, those who were qualified to inherit the throne were the only ones who were qualified to do so. There are seven more, including his two real brothers.

As a prince who was most qualified to inherit the throne in all aspects, he was ruthless. He did everything he could, and all his successors viewed him as their strongest competitor. Including his two biological brothers, he was plotting against them. In a secret battle that no one could see, no one knew why he was so obsessed with the throne. Only a few people knew that he always had a habit, which was when he was in the dead of night. He looked at the portrait of a woman and sighed over and over again.

He simply wanted to be good to her. He thought that only by controlling everything would he be able to make her the happiest woman in the world.

In the end, when he used his sword to cut open the necks of the last two heirs, which were his two biological brothers, his Royal Father walked out from behind the curtain. Just when he was terrified of killing his own brothers, not only did his Royal Father not punish him, he even passed the throne to him with a smile.

He could hear the gratification and relief in Royal Father's laughter, but more of it was the loneliness and loneliness that he could not understand even if he wanted to break his head.

"When you take my seat, you will know that the Emperor's life has always been a puppet show from the beginning to the end. When you are in the act, you always think that you will be restrained by all kinds of things and that you are not free. However, when you are in the act, you will find that you are still unable to control yourself. "

He would never forget what Royal Father had said to him before his death. He couldn't understand what could make an Emperor feel distressed or even deeply afraid because in his heart, the Emperor was the master of everything. In order to control everything, he would use any means necessary to ascend to the throne.

When he finally brought the girl back to the capital, the sky was already above the new moon. The capital was a hundred miles away from the girl's hometown, and the guards accompanying her had long been left behind. Only they held each other's hands as they stood under the hundred-meter tall city wall of the capital, standing independently from the world.

At that time, the capital was not even called Luoan.

The young girl liked to look at his horse's eyes. They were so bright that it was as if the capital was filled with big red lanterns, and the young girl ran around in the exceptionally spacious capital city, forgetting herself. She was like a wild child who had never seen the world. When she finally felt tired and stopped, he told her that it was a fine horse that was thousands of miles long.

"You said it was a thousand mile horse?"

The girl looked surprised. He was delighted. He suddenly reached out his hand and kneaded the young girl's carefully coiled hair into a ball. He took advantage of the time when the young girl was making fun of him and pulled her into his embrace.

"Look at its eyes, they are red. People say that this is the color closest to the heart. " He pointed at the horse's eyes and said to the girl in his arms.

"Close to the heart?" The girl comfortably leaned into his arms and curiously asked: "What does that mean?"

He instantly smiled, and a magnetic voice sounded in the girl's ear: "It is said that every horse in this world. . . In his previous life, he was a heartless person, so he came down from their lives. . . Their eyes are black, and black is the color of their human heart. It symbolized sin, but the eyes of the horse were red. Because they already had the intention to repent when they were reincarnated, the deeper the red, It shows that the redemption they receive is also deeper, and the horses are extremely difficult to control. Because only those with true feelings are qualified to be their masters. "

The girl was deeply attracted by his story, and her gaze towards the horse was filled with a hint of sympathy. When she saw the playful look on his face, she immediately understood. She could not help but punch his chest in embarrassment. "Pooh, narcissist!"

He looked at her and smiled without saying a word.

The girl was embarrassed by his stare. She immediately lowered her head. Suddenly, she thought of something and exclaimed. "Ya! You haven't ascended the throne yet!"

"There's no rush. " He shook his head. His tone was as gentle as a gust of wind.
