After the death of the two seniors, sixteen-year-old Xuan Qi became the third secret guard leader of King Jing Li Xuanyan.
Li Xuanyan was suspicious and violent towards others, but he only trusted Xuan Qi.
Xuan Qi is a very qualified secret guard.
He always shares the prince's worries and protects the prince. When necessary, he is willing to die for the prince.
But there is one thing, Xuan Qi is actually different from other secret guards.
He likes Li Xuanyan.
Even if he doesn't serve as the prince's secret guard, he is willing to do anything for the prince.
Li Xuanyan's eyes rarely fell on Xuan Qi.
The prince has the world in his heart, and as long as he gives an occasional compliment or a plate of cakes as a reward, Xuan Qi can be happy for a long time.
As long as he stays with the prince and can see him, Xuan Qi will be very satisfied.
Until the tenth year when Xuan Qi came to Li Xuanyan, Xuan Qi was hit by a poisonous arrow in order to protect Li Xuanyan, and his martial arts skills were disabled, and he could no longer serve as his secret guard.
The prince thoughtfully noticed his attachment to the palace and asked him if he wanted to change his identity and stay with him.
Xuan Qi was stunned. He knew nothing but being a secret guard. Why was the prince still willing to keep him?
That night Xuan Qi fainted from pain countless times, but no matter how painful it was, as long as the prince kissed his forehead, he became obedient and stopped struggling no matter what.
His Highness said he looked very well-behaved and beautiful with his flushed face.
This seemed to be... A compliment to him. Xuan Qi's face became even hotter, but he was very happy in his heart.

After the mutiny, Li Xuanyan ascended the throne and His Highness became His Majesty.
His Majesty is still very busy, conquering the South China Sea in the east and Loulan in the west. Xuan Qi, who has no martial arts skills, can no longer follow him as before, and the days when he can see him have become very few.
The poison in Xuan Qi that year actually never healed. His health was getting worse and worse, and the imperial doctors were helpless.
Xuan Qi had no other wish, he just wanted to see His Majesty before his death.
But the flying pigeon that carried the message never came back. The wound where the arrow had hit her hurt more and more day by day. Xuan Qi spent less and less time awake every day.
His Majesty still hasn't come back to see him.
In a vague dream, Xuan Qi learned that his life was just an ordinary novel.
General Lin who shot and wounded him will be subdued by His Majesty, and he will open up territory for him, which will become a good story about the emperor and his ministers who trust the people they employ.
The dead secret guard was just an insignificant cannon fodder in His Majesty's grand scheme.
His discordant desire for His Majesty could just be eliminated with his death, so that Your Majesty would no longer have to worry about it.
On the day when His Majesty and General Lin returned to the DPRK, the whole process was filled with joy and the people lined the streets to welcome them.
The two rode horses side by side, exactly as the story in the dream said.
With gongs and drums noisy, Xuan Qi died silently on a day when the whole country was celebrating.
The script says that His Majesty is the protagonist, so everyone will respect and love him, help him ascend to a high position, and be willing to die for him.
But no.
Xuan Qi is willing to die for Your Majesty because he loves Your Majesty.
But if there is a next life, he will never fall in love with Your Majesty again.

When he opened his eyes again, Xuan Qi woke up in a strange palace.
Li Xuanyan held him in his arms and fed him a strange-tasting decoction before he could say anything.
Xuan Qi said that he didn't like His Majesty, and if Your Majesty still appreciated his hard work, let him go.
But Li Xuanyan looked at him and said he was confused because of illness. He held his chin and poured the medicine in through his mouth.
His Majesty's lips and tongue were warm, and when he kissed him, he held him tightly in his arms.
It was as if Xuan Qi was no longer a cheap, disposable secret guard, but a priceless treasure.
"Be good, don't talk nonsense."
"Guhui will make you my queen, I will only love you for the rest of my life."
Purpose: Cherish the people in front of you
