The night breeze was cold and blew in from outside the door.

Xiao Jingheng's hair swayed gently in the wind, lined with the red silk blown by the wind behind his back, which was extremely bewitching.

He smiled, closed the door in the flickering candlelight, and walked towards Gu Nan step by step.

Gu Nan looked at him in a trance.

Xiao Jingheng, who was dressed in a red wedding dress and had peach blossom eyes slightly bent, was really similar to the former Li Lounan.

In a trance, a pair of cold hands had already touched his cheeks. Xiao Jingheng's low voice was particularly soft in the silence: "Come with me." ”

[Ding, the plot development is detected, the main quest [Choice] is released, the task is not mandatory, the side quest is derived according to the option, the host can choose freely, and the task completion rewards 5000 points. 】

Gu Nan looked up at Xiao Jingheng, those peach blossom eyes were still beautiful, and they were gentle in the dim light.

"Come with me." Xiao Jingheng repeated, his tone was stained with a hint of pleading, very light.

Looking at his eyes, Gu Nan was inexplicably a little soft-hearted, he lowered his eyes and was silent for a while, but he still shook his head, "No." ”

"Why?"

"Because...... One person is enough. Gu Nan said.

At the end of every world, you have to owe a love, it is enough to owe one person, no matter how much, Gu Nan can't bear it.

Such words in Xiao Jingheng's ears meant that Xiao Jingqi alone was enough, his fingers paused for a moment, his face was too pale against the backdrop of the big red dress, he raised his head, his dark eyes went straight to Gu Nan's face, looked at it for a long time, and suddenly smiled.

"You really don't want to come with me?" Xiao Jingheng said.

Gu Nan lowered his eyes and saw that there were red blood lines, dripping from Xiao Jingheng's clenched hands.

He looked away and said, "Don't go." ”

[Ding, the main quest [Choice] is completed, and the task completion rewards 5000 points.] 】

At the same time as the system's mechanical prompt sounded, Xiao Jingheng withdrew his hand, stood up, and looked at Gu Nan condescendingly, his eyes deep.

It's quiet all around.

After a long time, Xiao Jingheng turned his eyes to look out the window and laughed lowly, the laughter seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, hoarse and difficult.

"Then ...... I can't help it. ”

This kind of Xiao Jingheng shocked Gu Nan's heart, he turned his head to look at Xiao Jingheng's line of sight, and saw that the dark sky outside was illuminated by the firelight, and it was bloody.

[Ding, the plot derivative side quest [Forcing the Palace] is released, please organize Xiao Jingheng's blackening and forcing the palace behavior within two hours, the task completion reward points are 10,000, and the failure penalty will be released randomly. 】

"You're crazy." Gu Nan looked at Xiao Jingheng, who was still standing there, smiling wantonly.

"Haven't I always been crazy in your eyes?" Xiao Jingheng stepped forward, leaned over and smiled at Gu Nan: "I just want to get what I want." ”

After speaking, he leaned forward slightly, and his soft lips touched Gu Nan's forehead lightly.

[Ding, the target of the strategy, Xiao Jingheng's favorability +5, the current favorability is 50 (those who want to get it).] 】

Outside was getting brighter and brighter, and gradually there was the sound of blades catching each other, and then there was a chaotic sound of footsteps, hearing these sounds, Xiao Jingheng looked back and chuckled: "Look, it will be over soon." ”

Slowly, Gu Nan felt a pair of cold hands gently covering his eyes, and Xiao Jingheng's voice was low and hoarse: "Close your eyes, some things are too ugly, I really don't want you to see them." ”

Gu Nan avoided his hand, shrank back, and looked at Xiao Jingheng vigilantly.

Xiao Jingheng's expression did not change, and he looked at Gu Nan motionless for a long time, his gaze carefully hovered over Gu Nan's face, trying his best to imprint his face in the depths of his memory.

The cold wind blew in outside the window, and the candlelight dimmed for a moment, and then lit up instantly.

And the moment the room went dark, Gu Nan only saw a flash of white light in front of him, and then, his eyes completely darkened.

[Ding, the target of the strategy, Xiao Jingheng's favorability +10, the current favorability is 60 (someone who has become obsessed). 】

**

[Ding, the plot derivative side quest [Forcing the Palace] failed, and the task punishment will be opened within twelve hours, please prepare the host to meet the punishment. 】

When he opened his eyes again, what Gu Nan saw was Xiao Jingqi.

He lay in front of the window, the blue under his eyes was so thick that it turned black, and the blue stubble became more and more obvious on his pale face.

Gu Nan stretched out his hand and tapped on Xiao Jingqi's face, the latter was quickly awakened, and his dark eyes flashed with surprise and joy the moment he saw Gu Nan.

"Are you awake? Are you uncomfortable? Xiao Jingqi asked, turned around and hurriedly poured water, and was very wolf.

Gu Nan took the cup and took a sip, his neck moved, and the pain in the back of his neck was extremely clear. Such a sting reminded Gu Nan of what had happened before, and he looked around and asked, "What about Xiao Jingheng?" ”

Then he saw that the smile on Xiao Jingqi's face slowly faded, he straightened up, and Gu Nan saw that he had a circle of gauze wrapped around his abdomen, and a few points of red were faintly oozing from it.

"He did it?"

Xiao Jingqi lowered his eyes and snorted.

"What about people?"

"Dungeon." Xiao Jingqi's voice was very tired: "His posture of forcing the palace is too big, and it is known inside and out, and he has not left himself a way out." ”

Gu Nan opened his mouth, but he didn't make any sound.

It was dark above, and immediately after, Gu Nan's waist was hugged tightly. Xiao Jingqi leaned on his shoulder, his voice hoarse: "I don't know what to do." ”

Gu Nan hugged him with his backhand and was silent.

"I don't know why it's like this, Jing Heng is my sibling, he liked to follow me the most when he was a child, he was soft and had a warm smile."

"I'm ranked third, with a full-fledged brother above, and a younger brother below, since I participated in the succession, the only person standing behind me to support me is Jing Heng."

"We supported each other step by step, and when I ascended the throne, the relationship between him and me gradually cooled."

"Now he has chosen to take the throne."

"I didn't leave myself a way out."

"Do you remember that gazebo I took you to? We used to go there a lot and that was our favorite place. ”

"But now ......"

“……”

Gu Nan hugged him and listened to him talk a little about what happened to Xiao Jingheng, Xiao Jingqi's voice was very soft, and in the huge room, it seemed that he would disappear in the next second.

In the end, Gu Nan heard him say, "Actually, I also want to be a good brother, really." ”

The surroundings became quiet again, and this silence lasted for a long time before Gu Nan heard his own voice: "Yes this time...... What are you going to do? ”

As soon as the words fell, Gu Nan felt the hands holding him tighten.

“…… Exile. ”

[Ding, the plot development is detected, the main quest [see Xiao Jingheng's side] is released, the task is completed and the reward points are 10,000, and the host comes on. 】

The familiar system prompt sound made Gu Nan choke.

He felt that in this case, he was definitely looking for death when he proposed to Xiao Jingqi to see Xiao Jingheng.

He looked up at Yoha, who was crouching in the corner, and the husky wagged his tail: "Do you want to help, host?" ”

Gu Nan glanced at him a few times and decisively refused: "Don't." ”

The husky grinned.

An ominous premonition rose from the bottom of Gu Nan's heart, and then a golden chrysanthemum flashed in front of him, and Gu Nan couldn't help but open his mouth.

"Let me go see him."

As soon as the words came out, Gu Nan felt that the whole person was not good.

The husky wagged his tail to comfort him: "You believe me, host, Xiao Jingqi will not refuse your request." ”

Gu Nan didn't intend to believe him, and looked up at Xiao Jingqi.

Xiao Jingqi's eyes drooped slightly, and his eyelashes formed a shadow in the candlelight on his face.

Gu Nan was very apprehensive in his heart.

The hand was held by a pair of warm hands.

Xiao Jingqi smiled, his eyebrows softened: "Then let's go." ”

[Ding, the target of the strategy Xiao Jingqi has a favorability of +5, and the current favorability is 75 (the guardian). 】

So on the way to the prison, Gu Nan was still asking the husky: "Why has the favorability increased?" ”

"Probably because of ......" the husky said in a stern tone: "He thought you were deliberately looking for him to go down the stairs and let him go to see Xiao Jingheng, and he felt that you were really an understanding and good partner." ”

“……”

"Host, I've told you many times, and the treatment you get from positive or negative favorability is completely different, you just can't remember."

The prison was soon there.

Xiao Jingheng stood outside and hesitated for a long time, but finally did not go in with Gu Nan.

Step by step down the stone steps, cold and damp.

Gu Nan followed the jailer for a while, and soon saw Xiao Jingheng. He was still in the red wedding dress of that night, leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, his expression indifferent.

Even in such a place, he is noble.

The jailer in the back bowed and left.

Gu Nan walked into the cell step by step.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xiao Jingheng slowly opened his eyes, and his black peach blossom eyes were still as beautiful as before.

"You're here." Xiao Jingheng hooked his lips and chuckled: "It's hard for you to still be willing to come to see me." ”

"......" Gu Nan walked up to him and sat down: "Do you regret it?" ”

"Which thing do you ask?" Xiao Jingheng laughed: "If I want to get you and force the palace, I don't regret it." ”

Gu Nan was silent.

"Come here, stay close to me, I'm afraid there won't be any chance to talk in the future." Xiao Jingheng beckoned to Gu Nan, and during the movements, the chains on his hands touched together, making a crisp sound.

This voice made Gu Nan raise his head, and Xiao Jingheng was still smiling, his eyebrows picturesque.

Gu Nan thought about it, but still leaned over.

As soon as I leaned over, I heard Xiao Jingheng's deep voice: "Actually, I still have a back hand, which is in the suburbs of Beijing." ”

Gu Nan was taken aback.

Xiao Jingheng narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Do you think that I will come to the palace without preparing anything?" ”

When he laughed, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and his expression was flying, which was particularly good-looking.

Gu Nan frowned.

A finger was placed on Gu Nan's eyebrows, and the folds there were gently removed.

"I'm not going to do anything, though." Xiao Jingheng withdrew his hand and leaned against the wall in a relaxed posture: "Do you see the wound in his abdomen, I stabbed him." ”

Gu Nan looked at him in surprise and snorted.

"Actually, I couldn't have stabbed him." Xiao Jingheng lowered his eyes and looked at his hand, and his voice was light: "At that time, his sword was facing my chest, as long as I stabbed it, I would definitely die, but he finally took it back." I didn't have time to collect my dagger before I stabbed him. ”

Gu Nan was silent.

"So, didn't you ask me if I regretted it?" Xiao Jingqi smiled, and the peach blossom eyes were full of brilliance: "The only thing I may regret is that at that time, I really wanted to kill him." ”

It was quiet again, except for the occasional clash of chains.

Xiao Jingqi didn't speak, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking.

Time passed, and the already dimly lit cell became even darker.

Gu Nan tightened his cloak.

"Are you going to go?" Xiao Jingheng raised his head.

"Well, he'...... Still waiting for me outside. ”

"Really?" Xiao Jingheng's eyes flashed with light, and he stretched out his hand towards Gu Nan: "The last time we met, Gu Nan, let me hug you." ”

As he spoke, a smile slowly appeared on his face, gorgeous and unparalleled.

Gu Nan hesitated and nodded.

The body was quickly covered with warmth, and the hug was very light and slightly damp.

"I'll tell you two secrets, Gu Nan." Xiao Jingheng buried his head in Gu Nan's neck socket and said softly: "The first one is that I met on the pavilion a long time ago, very early, earlier than him." ”

[Ding, the target of the strategy, Xiao Jingheng's favorability +10, the current favorability is 70 (obsessed person). 】

Gu Nan was stunned for a moment.

"Isn't it unfair?" Xiao Jingheng didn't raise his head, and the hot air sprayed on Gu Nan's neck as he spoke, slightly wet: "Obviously, I saw you first, but why do you just want to be with him wholeheartedly?" ”

"You're going to sue me, because he was the one who reached out to you first, didn't you?"

Gu Nan was silent.

Seeing that Gu Nan didn't speak, Xiao Jingheng didn't continue the topic, and smiled softly: "The second secret is that you really shouldn't come to see me, Gu Nan." ”

As he spoke, the arms holding Gu Nan tightened a little: "From the moment he withdrew the long sword, I decided to give up, and I had to give up." ”

His low and hoarse voice sounded in Gu Nan's ears, and at the same time, some viscous liquid slowly flowed down Gu Nan's neck.

Gu Nan raised his hand and wiped it, his hands were bloody.

Horrified in his heart, Gu Nan turned his head and saw that blood was constantly spilling from the corner of Xiao Jingheng's mouth.

"You ......"

"I know I'm going to end up in exile, that wolf bèi." Xiao Jingheng stretched out his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and smiled carelessly: "It's better to be like this, come and go chic." ”

The blood kept flowing out when he spoke, how could he wipe it off, Xiao Jingheng simply didn't wipe it, let the blood stain his cheeks red, and hugged Gu Nan again.

"That's why I was going to leave." Xiao Jingheng closed his eyes slightly, and repeated: "However, you really shouldn't come to see me." ”

This sentence was repeated by him in such a heavy tone, Gu Nan felt that something was wrong, and reached out to push Xiao Jingheng away, but his waist was vigorously held by a pair of hands, and he didn't let go.

The viscosity on his neck became more and more, and in a slippery environment, Gu Nan heard Xiao Jingheng's voice.

"I can't help it, Gu Nan, I'm really reluctant."

"I'm really sad to put you down and go alone."

"So...... I'm sorry. ”

"You really, shouldn't have come back to me."

His voice was very soft, lingering gently in Gu Nan's ear, like a sigh, and like an emotion.

At the same time as his last word fell, a dagger stabbed into Gu Nan's back heart, extremely decisive.

Blood overflowed from Gu Nan's mouth and dripped on Xiao Jingheng's red wedding dress, dazzling black.

Xiao Jingheng gently wiped the blood from the corner of Gu Nan's mouth and pressed against his forehead.

"I really can't bear you...... I love you. ”

[Ding, the target of the strategy, Xiao Jingheng's favorability +20, the current favorability is 100 (total death). 】

At the end of Gu Nan's consciousness, it was Xiao Jingheng's pure smile and a heart-rending cry behind him.

**

Xiao Jingheng died.

Gu Nan is still alive. The eighteen imperial doctors of the palace tried their best to pull Gu Nan back from the Ghost Gate.

But......

Gu Nan opened the system panel, looked at the three-hour countdown behind his name, and sighed.

He is now hanging on to his life with all good medicine.

When Xiao Jingqi pushed the door in, he looked tired and pale.

When Gu Nan saw him, he put down the medicine bowl in his hand: "You are here." ”

The man in the bright yellow dragon robe sat on the edge of the bed and took the medicine bowl, smiled reluctantly, his hands were trembling: "Jing Heng's matter...... It's been dealt with, you ......"

"That's good." Gu Nan interrupted him with a smile.

The atmosphere was silent for a while, Gu Nan looked at Xiao Jingqi quietly, and gradually felt sleepy.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Jingqi's hand holding the medicine bowl trembled more and more, he put down the medicine bowl, raised his hand and touched Gu Nan's cheek, his voice trembled, "...... Are you tired? ”

The coolness on his cheeks made Gu Nan sober up a little, he raised his hand to hold Xiao Jingqi's hand, and smiled: "I'm not tired." ”

The system panel countdown constantly makes a tick-tock sound.

After being silent for a long time, Xiao Jingheng gently withdrew his hand from Gu Nan's palm, and then hugged him tightly.

After a while, a slight coolness slid along Gu Nan's neck until it reached his heart.

When there was still an hour left in the system countdown, Xiao Jingheng went to the pavilion with Gu Nan in his arms.

The scenery is still beautiful.

Gu Nan was lying in Xiao Jingheng's arms, and the cool breeze gently stroked his face, which was very comfortable.

Xiao Jingqi sat on the stone bench and hugged Gu Nan, leaning over and touching Gu Nan's cheek: "Why...... Obviously, a qiē has just begun, why is it over? ”

The desperation in his voice and the wetness in the corners of his eyes stuck to Gu Nan's heart, Gu Nan's nose was sour, and his eyes were hot.

They snuggled up to each other in such a fragile posture, and for a long time, Xiao Jingqi got up slightly, and showed a gentle smile to Gu Nan with red eyes: "I'm sorry...... There is no formal completion of the marriage ceremony with you. ”

Gu Nan looked at Xiao Jingqi, his red eyes and a gentle smile made people feel extremely sad to watch.

After looking at Xiao Jingqi carefully for a long time, Gu Nan stretched out his hand towards him: "Then now, make it up to me, okay?" ”

After a long time, Gu Nan heard Xiao Jingqi's voice: "Okay." ”

The system counts down, and there is still half an hour left.

It is still the palace where the previous wedding was held, decorated with red silk and lit by candlelight.

Gu Nan and Xiao Jingqi changed into red wedding clothes, worshiped heaven and earth, said the oath, and then sat at the table and raised their wine glasses.

"Wine, good sign." Gu Nan smiled.

Xiao Jingqi sat across from him, his face unexpectedly softened in the dim candlelight.

but his eyes were red.

Ten minutes left.

Xiao Jingqi picked Gu Nan up horizontally, carefully put him on the bed, sat on the edge of the bed by himself, leaned over to look at Gu Nan's face, and his deep fingers traced his facial features little by little, with a delicate expression.

Gu Nan smiled and closed his eyes, letting his fingers move on his face.

Time passed quietly.

Eyes are getting blurry.

In a trance, Gu Nan saw Xiao Jingqi lower his head, his hair falling with his movements, and it was entangled with Gu Nan's hair.

There was a crackling sound from the pull on the lampstand.

"Do you regret meeting me? Will you be entangled with me and immortal? Xiao Jingqi spoke, his voice dry.

Gu Nan opened his eyes, turned his head to look at their tangled hair, and laughed.

"No regrets, there are ...... I do. ”

The light dissipated from Gu Nan's eyes little by little.

Hazy, Gu Nan saw a satisfied and happy smile on Xiao Jingqi's face.

Also, a drop of water fell on his eye.

Soft strands of hair stroked his cheeks.

For a long, long time, Gu Nan heard a choked voice.

"Gu Nan, I love you......"

The voice is religious.

**

[Ding, the target of the raider, Xiao Jingqi's favorability +25, the current favorability is 100 (beloved).] 】。

[Ding, the side quest [Brush Xiao Jingqi's favorability to 100] is completed, and the reward points are 3000. 】。

[Ding, daily task 01 [wakes up every day and sees beckoning in front of the clean room] to complete, reward points 10,000, spirit grass x10. 】

[Congratulations to the host for clearing the male matching world 03, and the reward points are 100,000. ] The World Points are settled as 433165, and the host continues to work hard. 】

[The system enters the update state, and the world 04 will be opened after the update is over, please wait patiently.] 】

After the system prompt, his eyes darkened, and a huge screen appeared in front of Gu Nan's eyes again.

It was late at night.

The palace was quiet, Xiao Jingqi held a black box, and walked step by step into the palace where they once lived together.

The candlelight was dim, and the curtains were flying, and Gu Nan saw that the walls were covered with portraits.

Smiling, lowering eyes, raising hands...... It's all Gu Nan.

He walked step by step, with a sense of vicissitudes with each step, until he walked to the window.

There is a set of bright red wedding dresses on the bed, bright and charming.

Xiao Jingqi gently put the big box in his hand on the red silk surface under the bedside table.

Then, slowly, slowly, leaned over and pressed his forehead against it.

A low and hoarse cry gradually came out, and in the cold and silent palace, the heart was extremely sad.

The forbidden army patrolling outside walked in front of the palace, and the Forbidden City was silent and deep in the dark night.

But no one knew that in the great hall behind them, their most honorable king lay on the edge of the bed, crying until he was hoarse.

The images flashed one by one.

Xiao Jingqi is getting old.

He still lived there, but he never remarried in his life.

The portrait of Gu Nan in his room became smaller and smaller day by day, and finally there was only one left, hanging in front of his bed. The young man in the painting is dressed in a red wedding dress, smiling slightly, which is extremely beautiful.

Later, Xiao Jingqi adopted a child.

One day, the little prince entered the palace, saw the portrait, looked up and asked him, "Who is this?" ”

Xiao Jingqi raised his head and looked at the portrait for a long, long time, his eyes reminiscing and gentle.

After a long time, he spoke softly.

"That's my queen, my love, my partner."

"The only one."
