After entering a novel, Yin Guang finds himself a frail king who struggles even to catch his breath.
At first, he thought he'd just lie flat and start over once his time was up.
But his body was so weak that even breathing was torture.
With so long to go before his scheduled exit, he spent his days bedridden and miserable.
One day, after drinking the medicine sent by the Chancellor, he came down with yet another fever that wouldn't break.
When he woke up, he finally sighed. He'd had enough. There was no need to endure it any longer.
“Summon the Chancellor.”
Yin Guang smiled.
“This king has something important to discuss with him.”
*
Zong Ba was summoned back from the borderlands by his family. He thought his parents had finally accepted him.
Instead, his brothers had offended the king, and his parents planned to turn him into a living medicine to offer the king as a tonic.
Zong Ba hated his family, and the king who saw him as a source of nourishment.
He swore to kill everyone who had ever looked down on him.
But he never expected that one day, the king would open the door to his cell
and slowly descend the steps into the dungeon where he was imprisoned.
The king was pale as paper, with an imposing presence and strikingly elegant features.
He was nothing like Zong Ba had imagined.
The other man gave a couple of quiet coughs, then said slowly:
“You may leave.”
Later, somehow,
Zong Ba looked at the sleeping king beside him, climbed out of bed with practiced ease, and cut his finger, letting the blood drip into a bowl nearby.
The other man furrowed his brow slightly and murmured that he was cold.
Zong Ba immediately scrambled back under the animal-skin blanket and wrapped his arms around the king's waist again.
The spring chill was still sharp. He couldn't let the king catch cold.
【According to The Secret History of the Great Liang, Yin Guang, the third ruler of the Great Liang dynasty, was frail in his youth but ruthless and bloodthirsty. When he first ascended the throne, he pretended to be sickly and incompetent, then seized power with brutal decisiveness and ruled with an iron fist. For a time, the Great Liang entered the height of royal authority.】
Inspired by the Qin dynasty, with a hodgepodge of elements. In short, it's a fictional setting.
