My Lord, the Imperial Guard

When Ling Jin woke up, all he could remember was that his surname was Ling.

There was a cinnabar tree growing beside him, so he took the name Jin,

and settled down in an obscure little village.

Ling Jin was handsome, and the local bullies often harassed him, much to his annoyance.

Then one day, someone appeared:

a highly skilled martial artist, ruthless and merciless, a jade-faced demon who couldn't resist being teased.

Better yet, he promised to protect Ling Jin for the rest of his life.

The cold-hearted Ling Jin was almost moved.

Almost, because he finally regained his memory:

he was Ling Yuan, the emperor of the Great Luan Dynasty.

Shen Mo had once been a dog Ling Yuan kept,

because he was good-looking and efficient, Ling Yuan often kept him by his side.

Ling Yuan couldn't quite figure out what Shen Mo was pretending to be so affectionate for.

What was he after?

Ling Yuan glanced at his throne. He was sick of sitting there himself.

Then he looked at his own body. Could it be that Shen Mo wanted that?

"Yes, allow me to explain.

His Majesty did indeed lose his memory.

But I love the gentle, tender version of him after he lost his memory,

and I also love the version of him who is cold on the outside and burning within after regaining it.

I will always be His Majesty's dog."

Shen Mo, Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard

"I have no other hobbies in life.

I simply have a special fondness for keeping dogs."

Ling Yuan, Emperor of the Great Luan Dynasty
