I Will Stay by Your Side Until Our Hair Turns White

Happy ending, extremely sweet and doting.

Prince Sheng had won countless military honors and enjoyed great prestige. Everyone knew that this bold, decisive, and spirited Prince Sheng was the future heir to the throne, destined to become emperor.

Xun Chen was just a young singer, aloof, proud, and refined. He had trained in opera since childhood. He was strikingly handsome, and his voice was clear and pleasant.

Their first meeting.

Prince Sheng had never met a man so radiant and captivating. The first time he saw Xun Chen, he was drunk and carried him back to his residence...

The second time, he held the man in his arms as they slept on the same bed...

Xiao Qing always protected him with arrogant swagger. "Who are you calling a mere actor? He's mine."

Xun Chen was dumbfounded. "When did I become yours, Your Highness?"

Everyone in the capital knew that Prince Sheng had practically worn down the threshold of Yanfeng House...

With Prince Sheng's affection and favoritism, the two men, whose status was worlds apart, gradually drew closer, and desire blossomed between them...

One day, Prince Sheng pulled him into his arms. "Who takes you out to have fun? Who buys you food? Who gives you presents? Who protects you?"

Xun Chen answered timidly, "You... Your Highness."

"Then tell me... Is there a place for me in your heart?" Prince Sheng's dark eyes shone with hope.

"There is..."

Their relationship sent shock waves through the court. Everyone said it violated the bonds of proper conduct, went against convention, and offended the eyes of the world.

Xiao Qing stood proudly between heaven and earth. "Then I'll break those conventions. If anyone finds you offensive, I'll gouge their eyes out for you."

The emperor was furious.

For the only time in his life, Xiao Qing defied an imperial decree.

He smiled, his expression resolute. "My reputation isn't enough. I'll trade my illustrious military achievements and the imperial throne for him alone. If he lives, I live. If he dies, I die."

Later...

Xiao Qing gave up the throne and the empire for him, yet also opened up another splendid realm for him...

Holding the man in his arms, his gaze tender, he said, "He is my wife."

"I promised to give you the respect you deserve. We must marry openly and honorably."

Later, everyone said, "Prince Sheng is heaven's favored son. He dares to act and dares to take responsibility."

Theme: In the end, he did not betray the joy of youth, and won a lifetime together. In the end, he did not betray his deep devotion, and stayed true to their love for a lifetime.
