"Where are you?"
"I'm here!"
"I don't see you."
"I'm right here."
"I know you're here, but I've been looking for you for a long time, but I can't find you. Where are you hiding?"
…
Two voices came from under the rain.
Although the sound of the rain was loud, it couldn't cover their voices.
They saw a young man in luxurious clothes running from the courtyard to the corridor in the heavy rain.
A pair of shoes stepped in the rain, and the ground was covered with rainwater.
Because the rain was too heavy, the young man's clothes were all soaked.
But now, he couldn't care less about the rain on his body. He just casually combed his rain-soaked hair, and then ran in the corridor with his robe.
As he ran, he looked around.
He kept shouting, "Where are you? Why can't I see you? You must be lying to me, you're definitely not here. "
In the face of his shouting, a reply came from the air, "You really don't see me? I'm right here. "
"Alright, stop teasing me! I really don't see you. Look at me, I braved such a heavy rain to find you, why are you hiding from me? "
"You said that if you came to find me next time, I should hide. You said that no matter where I hide, you would find me. Why can't you find me now? Look again, you'll definitely find me. I'm hiding in a place you know. "
"A place I know? But I've already searched everywhere in the mansion, even the library! I asked my uncle, and he said that you're here, but you seem to have disappeared. I just can't find you. "
The young man was a little anxious!
He gazed from side to side in the corridor.
He looked here and there, looking everywhere.
But he couldn't see the other person's shadow.
He felt that the person was lying to him, and so was his uncle.
Just as he was running around in circles, the voice that echoed in the air came from above him, "Ah Jin, why are you so impatient? If you look a little more, you'll find me."
Huh?
Ah Jin stopped in place.
He raised his head to look at the source of the voice.
They were pieces of jet-black tiles and sturdy pillars.
But he couldn't see anyone!
There wasn't even a shadow.
He pouted a few times, then asked cutely, "So, Lian Que, are you up there?"
"…"
"Is that so? Answer me! "Ah Jin stomped on the spot.
Even the sparrow did not respond to him for a long time.
"If you don't say anything, I'm leaving! Mother said that I can't leave the palace for a while. Many things have happened in the palace recently. Father and Mother have been depressed. Today, I secretly came to see you. "
Just as he was about to lose his patience —
A head hung down from above. That pair of shiny black eyes blinked a few times as it stared at Ah Jin and said, "I'm here. Do you see me?"
Ah Jin saw a familiar face.
A smile blossomed on his face.
"So you're on the roof. Lian Que, you're getting better at hiding."
Lian Que smiled at him. The rainwater splashed on his body and hair, causing his handsome face to become a little blurry.
Then, he jumped down from above.
He stood beside Ah Jin.
The two drenched chickens stood facing each other.
But both of them were very happy.
Ah Jin was shorter than him. He quickly squatted down and grabbed his clothes. Then, he wrung them desperately, saying, "I'll wring out the water for you. Otherwise, you'll catch a cold."
He was drenched too.
But —
Lian Que pulled him up and said with a serious face, "Ah Jin, you can't."
Huh?
Ah Jin's eyes turned slightly and he asked, "Why not?"
"No means no."
Ah Jin didn't understand. His big eyes were full of confusion. He looked up and asked, "But every time my clothes get wet, Mother wrings them out for me like this. Why can't you do it?"
"Because …"
"Because what?" Ah Jin said hurriedly, "Mother said that only the closest people will do this. You're my best friend. I just want to do this for you. Can't I?"
Lian Que looked at the young boy in front of him. He opened his mouth but didn't say anything …
Finally, he said, "Because you're the future King of Huyi. And I'm just a small follower of the Marquis. "
So —
They couldn't be friends.
They couldn't be friends.
There was only loyalty between a king and his subjects!
Although little Ah Jin didn't have much experience, he understood the meaning behind Lian Que's words.
He was a little unhappy at that moment. He flung his wide sleeves that were covered in rain and looked at the young boy who was a few years older than him unhappily. "I won't allow you to say that again. Lian Que, you're not only my friend but also my closest brother. No matter what I become in the future, we will still be like this.
Yes? "
"No, I can't."
"I won't allow you to say no." His little face was full of anger. Lian Que reached out and touched his head. He said very seriously, "Ah Jin, I just want to tell you that no matter what happens in the future, no matter what our identities are, I will always stand by your side. As long as you say the word, I will climb a mountain of swords and dive into a sea of flames for you. This is my life.
If you want it, I can give it to you anytime. "
Ah Jin took a step back. "I don't want your life."
"I know."
"Even if the whole world dies for me, I don't want you to die." Ah Jin held a strong force in his fist.
He was very serious! Lian Que was very touched. But he knew that no matter how good his relationship with Ah Jin was, in the end, he was still a subject. There were differences between a king and a subject. But just like what he said, he could do anything for Ah Jin. As long as he wanted, he could even sacrifice his own life.
Pay it out.
Then, Lian Que asked him, "You said something happened in the palace. What happened?"
Ah Jin lowered his head. "I don't know. Mother won't tell me. But I know that something must have happened."
"Don't be afraid. I'm here!"
"If something really happened, Lian Que, will you come to save me?"
Lian Que nodded very seriously. "Of course. Of course I will come to save you. I said that I can give my life to you."
He was so determined!
But who would have thought that …
On that day!
The palace was engulfed in a huge fire.
The sea of fire spread …
It almost surrounded the entire main hall.
The smell of death filled the entire palace.
The tragic scene was too horrible to look at!
