The Year of Rebirth

Ye Chen hurried back to the palace, but was told that his father dismissed the crowd and met the most famous dancer in the imperial capital alone.The bad premonition expanded again, his mind was blank, and he broke into the palace alone.

But it was too late.

His father fell on the dragon chair, blood flowed down the dragon chair and sank into the carpet laid on the ground.The long sword carried by the king fell at his feet, and the woman who was said to be dancing in the palace held a soft sword and stood in front of the dragon chair with her back to him.There was still blood on the sword that hadn't been wiped off, and the blood beads slid down the sword, as if it had been elongated for a long time.

Hearing his footsteps, the man slowly turned around.

His indifferent eyes swept across his face, the murderous intent still remained, and the veil that half covered his face moved slightly.

"It's you..." Her tone was indifferent, as if she didn't care.

"It's you..." Ye Chen's voice was hoarse, like a trapped animal.

The words of the two blurted out at the same time, and then both of them froze at the same time.

What surprised Ye Chen was that person's voice, not a woman's voice, but a very gentle male voice. Although there was a coldness in it, he would never forget this voice in his life.

What surprised Jun Ruyu was that Ye Chen actually recognized herself in this dress.

He turned around, his eyes swept across Ye Chen's whole body, and he lowered his eyes, and suddenly smiled.

He stretched out his hand to remove the hairpin that fixed the coiled hair, Wusi shawl fell down, fell in front of him, and was brushed behind him by those jade-like hands.Taking off the jewelry on his body, Jun Ruyu threw it aside casually, Ye Chen just stood there watching him take off the things on his body step by step, the robe that looked like a dance costume was torn off by him at will, making it simple, Ye Chen Only then did Chen realize that this was a men's clothing.

Something flashed through his mind, but the speed was too fast, Ye Chen had no time to catch this thread of thought.

But very soon, Yecheng's last defense was disintegrated, because the man raised his eyes to look at him, his raised phoenix eyes were half-closed, and the jet-black eyes shone with brilliance, bringing out a trace of bewilderment.He raised his hand and removed the veil that covered half of his face.

That time was very short, it only took a blink of an eye, and that time was very long, Ye Chen could hear the beating sound of his heart, it seemed as long as hundreds of years...

That was the face he was most familiar with. Although she had put on light makeup, her peerless demeanor remained unchanged.

He just stood there looking at him, still holding the soft sword that took his father's life just now in his hand, the blade has been restored to its original state, as if the long sword had never been used.

Ye Chen has completely lost the ability to speak, he can't even move his body, he can only look at that person with his mouth open, there is a black cloud in his eyes, and he doesn't know what kind of storm is brewing.

"Surprised?" Jun Ruyu seemed a little tired, she closed her eyes, her mouth was cold with a cold smile, and her killing intent was still on her body. "Why are you surprised? Is it why I became a dancer in the imperial capital or why I was a demon girl? Or, why did I kill that person?"

"..." Ye Chen could only look at him, not knowing how to speak.

Jun Ruyu didn't ask him what he meant, he walked over slowly with a long sword in his hand.

"Ye Chen, when you were frolicking and having fun beside your mother, do you know where I am? When you are behind your father, riding a horse and attacking cities, do you know where I am?" He bowed his head like I remembered something. "You know, the two countries are at war, the people are suffering, the corpses are everywhere, the plague is prevalent, you are winning and singing, but I..."

"Do you know? Since I was five years old, I have been thinking about killing this man every day and night... This man destroyed my country, beheaded my father and king, and forced my mother to death. Humiliation, joining the Demon Sect as a woman, hiding for 12 years."

"Do you know what it's like to bear the hatred of the country and the family, Ye Chen? I'm very tired, Ye Chen..."

"It would be great if you weren't you..." He suddenly looked up at him with a beautiful and intoxicating smile, just like when they first met, he smiled gently and said his name was Jun Ruyu. "I thought, as long as I kill this person, I will find a child to be my apprentice, teach him my life's martial arts, and then wander the world with the person I love. Together, we can make our home wherever we go."

The joints of those hands are well defined, and they are somewhat slender and fair, but it is also known that they are a pair of hands holding a sword.These hands caressed his face, slowly sketching his face, he looked a little cautious, but there was joy in his eyes.

Jun Ruyu leaned forward, looked into Ye Chen's eyes, and said with a smile: "But Ye Chen, these are only my dreams. I fell in love with someone I shouldn't love, so I don't have the right to choose... Ye Chen Chen, you can't let go of my family and me..."

Ye Chen opened his eyes wide, remembering the choice Jun Ruyu asked him to make, and the answer he gave. "I..." He opened his mouth to say something, but Jun Ruyu blocked his lips with his hand.

Jun Ruyu doesn't need him to say even a word at this moment.

No one can change the decision he made, no matter if it is selfish or arbitrary, he made the choice for himself and Ye Chen, the most straightforward choice.

"Ye Chen, I made a choice for you... Maybe it's not what you want, but you have lost the right to choose..." He tapped his toes, opened the distance between him and Ye Chen, and threw it on the The long sword on the ground was picked up by him and fell into his hand. He and Ye Chen looked at each other: "I know that nothing can be blamed. Killing your father is my lifelong obsession. I never thought about restoring the country. I never felt that I am suitable to be a prince...but Ye Chen, you can become a king."

"So, I will take this man's life and give you back the whole world! From now on, we will never see each other again!" After saying those words, the long sword raised horizontally sank into the white and slender neck like a rainbow.A stern look flashed across his eyes, and with more force, he sent himself under the sword again...

Before becoming unconscious, Jun Ruyu saw Ye Chen rushing over, and at the same time, someone seemed to be calling his name loudly...

The splashed blood splashed all around and fell on the ground like blooming flowers from the other side, Ye Chen's eyes were blood red.

Before he woke up from the truth of his father's death, he saw his lover committing suicide in front of him. His head was almost blank, but he rushed over instinctively, hugging the man's body in his arms, and tightly Hold it tightly, as if to confirm that this is not a dream.

This is not a dream, the body in his arms is slowly losing temperature, and there is still blood flowing out of his neck, staining his hair red, that peerless face is pale with blood at this moment, but it looks so peaceful.

"...Yu" he choked with sobs, finally regained his composure, and the tears couldn't stop falling down. In the end, he cried like he was tearing his heart out.

The cries attracted the attendants outside the palace, they stared at everything in front of them dumbfounded, screams rang out after a while, and the whole palace fell into chaos for a while.

Ye Chen didn't know it.

If he came back faster, would he be able to prevent Ayu from killing his father?If he hugged Ayu quickly, would he not lose Ayu?If he could be desperate, wouldn't Ayu not die?

... It's just that there are never ifs in this world.

"Without you, what's the use of this world for me..." He leaned against his face and murmured in a low voice.

All the hottest emotions could not be vented, and all the most painful emotions could not be concealed. Ye Chen sat alone in the palace all night with his arms around Jun Ruyu's body.

The prince of the previous dynasty was successfully assassinated, and the first emperor died. According to the last emperor's edict, the prince ascended the throne.

The common people don't know what happened in the deep palace. They only know that the first emperor passed away and the new emperor came to the throne. The new emperor is a rare wise emperor. A lot of ideas have been made for the future development of the country.This young king was handsome and outstanding, but he did not marry anyone back to the harem. After only five years in power, he handed over the throne to his younger brother who had been trained by himself.After that, it was like disappearing, without a trace.

It is said that the young emperor took the ashes of his lover to the place where they first met, and stayed in front of the grave for the rest of his life until his death.

That night, holding the man's cold body, he murmured in a low voice: "Ayu, I will guard you for the rest of my life, so you have to wait for me..."

"I said, for you, I don't want this world."

Su Liunian looked in the mirror and slowly wiped away the blood on his neck. The makeup artist stood behind him and was taking off the long hair for him when Shen Yue came in happily.

"Fleeting time! Your advertisement was released today!" His eyes lit up, and he was more happy than getting a month's salary extra.

Su Liunian paused, and raised his eyebrows lightly: "Today?"

"Well, the press conference in the morning will probably have news in tomorrow's newspaper!"

"So sure?"

"Of course, you don't even know how popular this brand is. Have you forgotten what I told you at the beginning, how fierce is the competition in this advertisement? It is simply the most suitable for you now to be the spokesperson for the brand. means of propaganda."

The blood on his neck had been wiped off, and Su Liunian took off his makeup slowly. "Well, I know that."

"Why do you look unhappy at all?" Shen Yue was a little puzzled.

"How can I be happy?" Su Liunian looked at him in the mirror: "Smiling like a fool like you? Hmm... this is a bit difficult."

"..." Shen Yue felt that he was wrong, he shouldn't have asked this kind of question, isn't it just to find trouble for himself?

"Is there any on this advertising network?" Su Liunian saw that his little sheep looked a little helpless, and asked him another question to tease him. "How's the response?"

"Well... someone recognized you... said you are the young master in Qianyuan. Those who don't know you... well, I heard that they all ran to the movies."

"The response was beyond my expectation... How effective is the advertisement? Luo Chuanyun hasn't shown me the final effect until now."

Shen Yue held her heart and said, "The ad is very warm...it can't be seen as an ad at all...well, it feels very warm, it feels like the pores are relaxing~"

Su Liunian rolled his eyes and said, "You are exaggerating too much."

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Shen Yue didn't insist, she just curled her lips and said, "Remember to read it when you go back, you'll know when you see it."

Su Liunian nodded in disbelief.
