[The Machiavellian Lone Wolf*The Sober Poison Doctor in the World+The Superior Bows His Head+The Crematorium of Chasing His Wife+The Fateful Dream]
She had had the same dream for five years: a man was pierced by thousands of arrows, his blood was stained on the battlefield, and he was watching her until he died.
On her first day back in Beijing, she fell into that dream.
——He is alive. No injuries. Colder than in dreams.
The regent Xiao Jue has overwhelming power and kills people like crazy.
Everyone said that he was cruel, but no one knew that he was awakened by the same nightmare every night: the jade pendant that his mother-in-law held before her death was broken in front of him.
Until he saw the woman's waist at the city gate——
The old azure tassels were exactly the same as those in his dream.
"The palace is short of a medical girl." He called the name in front of everyone and detained the person without any reason.
She thought he wanted her life.
He thought she was the enemy's pawn.
But that night, when she was diagnosing his pulse, her expression changed as soon as she put her fingers on him——
The poison in his body came from the same source as the death disaster she saw in her dream.
She wanted to escape. He wanted to stay.
She thought she was investigating the cause of her mother's death, but she stepped into the murder of his family eighteen years ago.
He thought he was looking for an enemy, but in the end he discovered that what she wanted to break was his destined death.
————
She asked him: "Are you keeping me here for the jade pendant or for detoxification?"
He looked into her eyes and said word by word:
"I kept you because in the past five years, every time I woke up from my dream, I was thinking -
If I died on the battlefield that day, would you cry for me like in the dream? "
