He is the emperor, he is the secret guard.
The first time Shen Zhao fell in love was in the royal study room late at night. He put down his ink pen and said to the dark place: "Call me husband." Qin Feng knelt all night and did not dare to speak.
It's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't deserve it. The life of the secret guard is the sword, and the sword does not need a heart.
Later, together they experienced strife in the court, siege by rebels, and bloody battles in the snowy fields. Shen Zhao lost ten years of his life for him, and Qin Feng blocked countless arrows for him. On the way to escape, the two held hands for the first time in the cave; on the city wall with heavy snow, Qin Feng finally called out "husband" - not to him, but to the enemy, before he risked his life.
But there is no room for them in this world.
The Queen Mother said: "If you are really good for him, you should leave." The courtier said: "The emperor must not have weaknesses." Qin Feng himself said: "Your Majesty, I am just a secret guard."
On the night when Shen Zhao wrote the imperial edict, Qin Feng listened to the rain outside the palace all night, and there were bleeding marks on his palms. The next day, he returned the paper crane, kowtowed and left the palace.
Later, the battle report came back - Qin Feng died for his country, leaving only a yellowed paper crane in his arms.
Shen Zhao didn't cry. He walked into the secret guard camp, lay down on the bed where Qin Feng had slept, clutched the paper crane and asked softly: "Call me husband again... Just once."
No one answered.
Early the next morning, the emperor died. The last line of the edict read: "Buried with Qin Feng."
In the history books, he is the Son of Heaven; in the history books, he is just a buried guard. In the history books, there is no such thing as "husband" who never dared to call out.
Only heavy snow has fallen all over the imperial tombs and has not melted for thousands of years.
