In his previous life, Xie Yu died in an alley, never knowing that Mu Ji had held his body and wept all night.
Reborn, he was still the sharpest blade in the heir's household, while Mu Ji was still the same cold, taciturn leader.
Foreign spies had infiltrated the imperial court. The truth about his father's wrongful death twenty years ago was coming to light, and three thousand armored cavalry lay hidden beneath the ice of the borderlands. With the fate of their country at stake, love had to wait.
Mu Ji took him in again, protected him and made use of him, yet still couldn't bring himself to speak. Xie Yu understood perfectly: even if he was still doomed to die, he would win Mu Ji a better future.
"Are you trying to get yourself killed? Who told you that you could disobey orders and act on your own?"
But Mu Ji would not accept it. In this life, he would never lose him a second time.
A rebirth story of two male leads, political intrigue, redemption, and tragic romance.
He wanted to protect the realm, and protect him too. He was willing to die for him, but Mu Ji wanted him to live.
