What came into view was a large piece of colorless crystalline material.

Jiang Jianming is familiar with this kind of crystal, which is the color of true crystal ore, and also the color of crystal clusters pierced from patients with acute crystal disorder.

But at this moment, he was lying in a small space, silent up and down, without the slightest sound, and all around him were such crystalline substances.

"...!!"

Jiang Jianming gasped hard.As soon as you open your eyes, no one can bear it.

Not only that, his body and limbs were covered with such crystals, but "this thing" seemed to be aware of his awakening, and was slowly retreating from his body.

Yes, it is receding.

The light came from nowhere, and the environment was dark but not too dark to see.

Under this twilight, the crystal-like substance on all sides is obviously moving slightly, and it moves regularly, one can vaguely see the flesh and veins belonging to the living beings under the crystal.

This thing... is actually a living thing!

This kind of existence that violates biological instinct cognition makes people feel a cold sense of fear and nausea from the bones.

Jiang Jianming was numb all over, and he even wondered if he was in the stomach of some alien creature, which would soon be corroded into a pool of blood.

He subconsciously struggled, but he didn't expect that his body was like a tattered shell full of holes, and his internal organs were in pain.

"Well……!"

Jiang Jianming groaned and fell back down, the crystalline substance under his body squirmed, gently supporting the back of his head and putting it down.

This...is this...

The body couldn't move again, the crystals went back and forth, rustling up his limbs like scales, and an irresistible force pressed him to the spot.

In the darkness, I could only hear the beating of my own heart.Jiang Jianming gasped for breath, his throat convulsed with a sweet blood, and his eyes turned black.

"Ahem..."

Where is this damned place, what is this crystal living thing, and how did I end up here!?

Jiang Jianming turned his head with difficulty, cold sweat slipped down the bridge of his nose, he squinted and saw half of "his" shoulder and arm.

He seemed to be wearing a very dignified and graceful military uniform, with gold buttons on the closed cuffs.The exposed wrist is very thin, and the slender five fingers are weakly spread out, almost only a layer of pale skin is left on the bones, obviously it is the hand of a severely ill patient with residual crystals exhausted.

Jiang Jianming's pupils shrank slightly, and he suddenly took another breath——

Damn, this is not his body at all!

Suddenly, it seemed that some switch was turned on, and countless new memories burst out in the brain!

Jiang Jianming gritted his teeth and closed his eyes suddenly, but the huge amount of information gradually began to reach an unbearable level.

More and more things were being poured into his head crazily, and the headache was getting more and more severe.

It hurts!!!

It was as if there were small gears spinning crazily, crushing his soul again and again. Compared with the hatchback, the torture in the Crystal Cult starship was nothing to mention.

"Hmm, ah !!! Ah ...!"

Jiang Jianming collapsed and straightened his neck back, with an expression of extreme pain, and was forced to scream terribly by the double torture of spirit and body.

The thin blue tendons under the pale skin danced ferociously, and the tears oozed from the corners of his eyes slid into his black temples.

He didn't know why he was crying.

The crystals around him suddenly stirred up, binding him even tighter, making him unable to move.

A few seconds later, the long neck fell back, and Jiang Jianming lost his strength and fell back, tilted his head and closed his eyes, and fainted again in this treacherous crystal domain.

It was another strange dream, but this time, there was only one person who came and went repeatedly in the dream.

"Is this more comfortable?"

The breeze shook the curtains, casting mottled shadows on the desk.

In the memory of unknown years and months, he was lazily leaning on the soft chair and half asleep, with a pair of fingers behind him rubbing his forehead.The boy's voice was cold, but his tone at the moment was very pity: "I said, you can't be too tired. You're going to be sick again."

He tilted his head and smiled like a boneless one, and said, now that someone is taking care of me, I am not afraid of getting sick.

But the young man suddenly bent down, casting a cool shadow on his face, and at the same time there were a few strands of platinum curly hair hanging down.

"...Then are you willing to..."

The boy's voice was hoarse and soft, like a feather, "Let me take care of you for the rest of my life."

"You can discipline me for the rest of your life, show me the way, and accompany me to triumph. Of course, you can also do nothing and let me... take care of you."

He was a little surprised, so he raised his eyelids and looked back at the child beside him.

A few seconds later, he shook his head helplessly, and said softly, "Don't talk nonsense."

The boy said: "I'm very serious."

He fell silent.After a while, he raised his arm and lightly rubbed the young man's cheek, looking a little melancholy.

"not now."

"You are too young to talk about 'a lifetime'."

...

"I love you."

In a blink of an eye, the boy seemed to be a few years older, and his stature had also grown a bit.

He has silky platinum curly hair, sharp and arrogant emerald eyes, and his appearance is beyond human.The aggressiveness and possessiveness in those eyes was frighteningly strong, "Aslan...I love you."

This is the interior of a huge starship, brightly lit in the distance, noisy, laughing, shouting, and crying, like a carnival celebration after a big victory.

As for him, he was obviously the commander in chief of that battle, but now he was blocked by his young king in such a dark and ambiguous corner, unable to advance or retreat.

He smiled wryly: "Your Highness, don't be like this..."

"No, you have to agree." Under the shadow, the handsome young man imprisoned him even more wantonly, squinting his eyes and rubbing his chin against his collarbone.

"I love you, I like you, I only want you."

The voice is cold, but the tone is coquettish, like a dangerous and sweet poisonous flower, "Look... I am so obedient, you should reward me."

"I……!"

He was angry and funny, he raised his hand and wanted to hit him but he didn't want to, and finally he turned his eyes to the farther away - the distant starry sky.

He said melancholy softly, "I can't stay with you for too long."

The boy's eyes turned red immediately, and he got angry at him furiously, and even strangled his neck to force him to shut up.

But when he was out of breath, frowned and coughed in discomfort, the young man let go again abruptly, asked him in a panic if it was all right, hugged him and apologized.

"Okay, let's not talk about it. Those are not important, they are not important... I don't care."

The young man held back his longing, tentatively, and reached out to hook the golden button of his neckline, "So, is it possible? Let me love you... Aslan."

After a pause, he whispered again: "... Jiang."

But he pursed his lips and lowered his head, firmly grasped the boy's wrist, and then pushed it away.

"Keos, you can't use that name again."

...

crackle!

Expensive glass and porcelain were thrown down in anger and shattered all over the ground.

The young new emperor in a thick scarlet robe turned around, his face was icy and filled with hatred.

"It's just a place in the coronation ceremony, why can't I even give you this!!"

"Don't say any more that you are a disabled human being, you are my commander-in-chief and a founding father!! Who dares to question you?——Anyone who dares to question, I will kill him."

"If you don't march to the distant interstellar space, you won't even be able to make tranquilizers next year. You are forcing me to watch you die."

"What do you think of me all these years!?"

The last period of time was a bit embarrassing.Quarreling, reconciling, and quarreling again, they all did crazy and irrational things to each other. They were like two wild animals biting each other in the mud.

"In order to realize your ambition, you will not hesitate to domesticate a monster for so many years..."

There was a sneer in the eyes of the new emperor, the young man was already a head taller than him, and he rubbed his thumb against the artery in his neck: "I'm curious, have you ever been afraid that I will bite you, Commander?"

"Aslan, I don't want to listen to you anymore."

On the day of the most violent quarrel, Xindi broke his arm.

He was in pain and sad.

Last time, fate gave him extra time; but this time, he really couldn't accompany His Majesty anymore.

This life is not long, he thinks he has done many things wrong, especially his Majesty, and he doesn't know how to make up for it.The night sky of Vassen Star City is very clean, and you can see fine Xing Xing, but you can't see the starships of the expedition.

Half asleep and half awake, he sat in the courtyard with his eyes closed, staring at the night in a daze, raising his hands with difficulty and dropping them again.

An old dog ran to the rocking chair with its tail wagging, rubbed against his cold palm, and purred in its throat.

In his life, he has actually reached out to the distant starry sky countless times, longing for those unreachable visions countless times.

But he dared not even let His Majesty know that he wanted it.

It's too far to reach.

In the treatment cabin, the black-haired remnant crystal man opened his eyes.

He saw the bright and spacious ceiling, the faint smell of disinfectant sprayed in the ward, and the sound of footsteps outside the door, everything was clean.

This is where……

Jiang Jianming blinked blankly, the mist in front of his eyes was blurred, and his cheeks were wet.

Strange, why...

Why is he crying so much...

It seems that had a dream that was too long.

At the end of the dream, someone said to him, we have won.

is that true?

His whole life...

Can we also usher in a day of triumphant triumph in the sun?

The automatic door opened, and the little nurse pushed the equipment trolley in surprise, and hurried to the treatment cabin, "Your Excellency Jiang, you are awake! Great, great..."

She skillfully squatted down to add medicine to the treatment cabin, and raised her face: "The doctor will come over soon, how do you feel, can you hear me clearly? Is there any discomfort?"

Jiang Jianming looked around in a daze, he stretched out his palm, supported the edge of the treatment cabin vigorously, sat up, then staggered up and went down to the ground.

"Hey, you can't...!"

The little nurse turned pale with fright. She has been taking care of the imperial colonel and crown princess for the past two days, so she naturally understands the patient's condition.

With His Excellency Jiang's current injuries and physical strength, and just waking up from a long coma, it is impossible for him to go to the ground.

But he just stood up like this, and he couldn't see the slightest reaction to the pain.

In other words, he obviously should be in pain, but he turned a blind eye to it and endured it completely.

Under the terrified eyes of the nurse, Jiang Jianming went straight to the window and gently pressed his fingers against the glass window.

Only then did he realize clearly that he was still inside the starship, from which he could overlook a vast expanse of Star City.

It was early morning at this time, tall buildings lined up, the Central Square, Splendid Cathedral, Keos Military Academy, Aslan Library... and the White Emerald Palace, were illuminated by the rising dawn light in turn.

Some of the streets are still damaged, but the corpses and mechanical debris have been cleaned up, and it no longer looks like a purgatory.

It is the people who stand on such open streets.

The news of the difficult victory spread throughout Star City, and a large number of people swarmed out of the shelters. They gathered on the streets, some were crying and some were laughing, cheering to welcome the returning heroes.

"We won!!"

"Long live the empire, the golden sun will never set!!"

Jiang Jianming looked at it, his eyebrows stretched in the morning light, it was a relieved and gratified expression.

"Your Majesty..." He closed his eyes, pressed his forehead against the glass devoutly, and a tear fell silently across his cheek, "...I saw..."

There was a series of panicked footsteps behind him, and the doctors and nurses surrounded him tremblingly, not knowing what was wrong with this distinguished patient, so they dared not go forward for a while.

"His Royal Highness...Your Highness! Don't scare us, are you uncomfortable somewhere!?"

"Shall we help you lie back on the bed first? Tell us what you want, tell us."

Jiang Jianming paused when he heard the words, and turned his head slowly, with a clear light in his eyes.

He smiled slowly, still holding on to the window glass, and asked in a warm voice with some surprise: "You...what did you call me?"

The doctor panicked: "Mrs...His Royal Highness the Crown Princess..."

Jiang Jianming laughed again when he heard the words, he bent his brows and eyes with difficulty, the sun fell on his pale cheeks, and tears kept falling.

He raised his hand to look at the crystal bone ring reflecting sunlight on his ring finger, lowered his eyes and kissed, and murmured in a trance, "Why are you still messing around like this?"

Everyone was even more horrified.

This... What the hell is going on here??

Jiang Jianming waved his hand calmly, "Don't be afraid, I'm fine."

He was still looking at the scene of Star City outside the window with great interest, as if he couldn't get enough of it, and asked again: "Your Majesty...cough, how is His Highness Lai An?"

"Oh, please don't worry about this, His Highness's injury and mental state are not serious... Now he has basically recovered, do you want to see His Highness..."

The doctor was so nervous that he spoke hastily and winked at the little nurse, who understood and ran to call someone.

In less than half a minute, the automatic door opened again. Before the people of His Royal Highness Ryan came in, an angry and cold voice came into the ward first.

"What are you doing just after waking up? Lie back for me..."

Before he could finish a sentence, the ending sound suddenly stuck.

In the faint morning light, the crown prince stood in a daze at the door of the ward, and met those gentle and quiet black eyes that clearly contained tears.

There was silence for two seconds.

The crown prince looked away in a panic, his arrogance disappeared, and he took two steps forward in a panic.

"Why are you crying."

Jiang Jianming chuckled frankly: "I miss you."

The author has something to say: Cherish the commander, and the line will be disconnected immediately.

Xiao Jiang: Tired, want to take His Highness home.

Commander-in-Chief: really miss Your Majesty, come to change classes.

Commander-in-Chief: We won the battle, let's appreciate the empire, and then we can meet the cute little Majesty now.

Xiao Jiang:?Wait, where is this, wait, what a bad number!Give me back my number, you scared my cat!!
