A Nine-Thousand-Year-Old's Survival Countdown (Reborn)

Lin Jin had a dream. In it, he deceived the emperor and kept the officials under his thumb, calling a deer a horse, all to pave the way to the throne for one person. And after that person took the throne, the first person he killed was Lin Jin.

In the dream, the man's lips curled into a smile, his handsome face full of scorn. "Haven't you heard? The first thing you do after making it is cut down the person you love?"

Lin Jin woke with a start and, drenched in cold sweat, touched his neck.

Thank goodness, thank goodness. It was only a dream.

But when he turned around, he saw that man standing in the shadows, smiling like a poppy. "A Jin, I like you."

Lin Jin silently got up and opened the door. "Your Highness, please leave. This servant is unworthy of your affection."

After sending Prince Qi away, Lin Jin carried a lamp to the bed of the little prince, the one he had protected even unto death, and covered him with the blanket he had knocked off.

In this life, he only wanted to live.

To live in peace.

Qin Ye had a secret. Back in high school, he had fallen in love with the eunuch known as the Ninth Thousand Years, a figure from the pages of old books.

Later, Qin Ye became emperor, and at last he was able to protect the one he loved and keep him safe for the rest of his life.

The bottom is reborn; the top transmigrates.

Bottom's POV.

One-on-one, happy ending.
