The young emperor Li Yan, who ascended the throne as a young man, holds the power of life and death in the court, and he kills fiercely. He only loves his younger brother Li Yan, the king of Linchuan, who has been with him since childhood. Li Yan has a pure and unconventional nature, and has no part in the city. He relies on his elder brother's preference to be wanton and mischievous, and gets into trouble constantly. Although he is repeatedly trained and lightly punished, he never forgets to eat and not to fight. He does whatever he wants in the strict etiquette of the palace. All his mistakes are wiped out by the emperor's brother.
Li Yan wholeheartedly adheres to the idea of protecting each other strictly and always wants to protect his younger brother's innocence. He is soft-hearted and dealt with lightly every time, but he is also secretly worried that he does not understand the world and people's hearts and will not be able to prevent future troubles. The accumulation of arrogance over time was intertwined with the hidden criticism of others, and a carefully planned injustice suddenly came. Li Yan suffered an unjust injustice and received the most cruel punishment in his life.
The carefree young man in the past had his outlook completely shattered, his lively and enthusiastic temperament was gone, he was completely aphasic, and he became sensitive, timid, and taciturn. The young prince who used to be clingy and coquettish when he saw his elder brother now trembled all over and knelt on the ground whenever he saw Li Yan, not daring to raise his eyes, which was an indelible physical fear.
The two-way and tender brotherly bond in the past was torn apart by the emperor's belated regret and the boy's unhealed trauma. In the long night in the palace, only endless regrets and unsolvable estrangements were left. The disadvantages of the emperor's doting and the involuntary desolation under the imperial power were revealed.
Purpose: Doting is not long-term protection. Bottomless tolerance will only eliminate people's respect for rules and people's hearts. Short-term stability will eventually lead to irreparable tragedies.
