prisoner of time

One year after Yan Tuo succeeded to the throne, he officially married Shi Yan.

Shi Yan has been pretending to be an omega for many years, leading the government's education funds specially distributed to omega, which is naturally a violation of laws and regulations.But no one dared to hold him accountable. In the end, Yan Tuo signaled his officials to investigate the matter and asked Shi Yan to pay a fine.

Everyone still thinks that Omega is attached to Alpha in the stereotyped understanding. Even if they can engage in social work, they cannot assume the responsibility of the king of a country, not to mention that Yan Tuo's partner is the most powerful Alpha in the empire, Admiral Shi Yan. So they even think that Shi Jin is in charge of everything.

However, Yan Tuo was trained as a prince from birth. He is an impeccable king in governing the country. Shi Yan only does his own job well and never interferes in political affairs. As a result, people gradually began to hate them. The young emperor became so convinced that he even ignored the fact that he was the first omega emperor of the empire.

At the same time, under the subtle influence of Yan Tuo, the status of the omega in the empire began to rise gradually, playing an important role in various fields of the empire.Even when Yan Tuo and Shi Yan didn't know it, they had already been regarded by the people of the empire as model partners who supported each other, supported each other, and would never leave.

But there are still some "malicious slander" rumors coming out.

For example, Yan Tuo and Shi Yan have been married for three years without any children, which is rare in an alpha and omega family, so there are rumors that His Majesty looks beautiful on the surface, but in fact it is very pitiful, because there has been no birthday for the general. Heirs, so they are often oppressed and demanded endlessly by the generals, even during the non-fever period.There are also people who swear that a servant in the palace once accidentally bumped into the admiral when he was on the throne in the palace and forced his majesty to breed.

There are also rumors that are closer to the truth.

For example, every spring and autumn, Yan would take Yan Tuo back to his wormhole for a period of time, claiming that he was going to inspect the border.However, in the series of rumors that "the general forces your majesty to give birth to him every day, and does everything possible", it is said that at this time of year, your majesty will be imprisoned by the general in an unknown place on the border, except for reproduction. Nothing can be done to prepare for future generations, until the general feels that it is almost ready before being released.

But even so, Yan Tuo was still not conceived - Shi Yan was destined not to be able to leave offspring, even if he was an omega with a special constitution, of course he would not be able to conceive an offspring for the two of them.

In order to let everyone stop paying attention to this matter, Yan Tuo simply selected a few children from the clan to be raised as heirs, and declared to the public that it was because he was already old when he differentiated into an omega, so it was difficult to leave heirs.

However, the selected children gradually formed their own forces and began to fight each other for the crown prince.Yan Tuo himself had experienced the strife for the throne back then, and he had also deeply experienced a series of disadvantages under the autocratic monarchy system during his reign, so he was not satisfied with the current situation, but he did not initiate it, and only gradually advanced like a frog boiled in warm water. The reform of the imperial political system began to gradually weaken the power of the royal family and the great aristocracy, and promoted the development of imperial education and the popularization of higher education.

His reforms touched the interests of the great aristocratic forces and attracted a series of attacks and backlashes. However, Shi Yan and the army in his hands have always firmly supported him, making it difficult for any opposition forces to succeed.

Under such circumstances, His Majesty the Emperor ushered in the fifth wedding anniversary between him and the Empress.

In the past few years, His Majesty the Emperor has always followed the family precepts, and since he was really busy at the beginning of his succession, he and Shi Yan did not celebrate their wedding anniversary with much fanfare.

This time, not long ago, Ji just led his army to end a war against alien invaders, and he returned to the imperial capital not long ago. After returning, he was busy arranging various matters of the military department.Yan Tuo feels sorry for his hard work, and misses him after not seeing him for a while, so he decides to take this opportunity to let his lover relax and be happy.

The gift he prepared for Shi Yan was a set of belts, cufflinks and gloves designed by himself. In order to make Shi Yan happy and relaxed, His Majesty the Emperor specially cooked soup and noodles himself, and learned court massage techniques , just wait for Shi Jin to come back.

The roar of the airship came from the courtyard.

The airship is not allowed to land in the palace unless the emperor and empress are traveling, so Shi Yan must have returned.

Sure enough, the door of the palace was pushed open after a while, and a man in black military uniform strode in, bringing in the cool air of early winter.

He waved his hand to signal the other attendants to leave, and soon the palace gate was closed again, leaving only Shi Yan and Yan Tuo in the palace.

Shi Yan didn't take off his coat, he walked directly behind Yan Tuo and hugged him, leaning against Yan Tuo's side and asked, "What is Your Majesty doing?"

His clothes were stained with the winter's chill, sticking to Yan Tuo's thin silk robe, the cold couldn't stop attacking Yan Tuo's body.Yan Tuo trembled involuntarily, stretched out his hand to push Shi Yan, turned around and unbuttoned the metal buttons on the black military uniform for him.

Enjoying the rare service from his partner, Shi Yan lowered his head and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, I heard a new saying this time."

"Huh?" Yan Tuo didn't raise his head, only made a shallow nasal sound.

"They said that Your Majesty is bewitching me with beauty, luring me to work for you." Shi Yan reached out and stroked his lover's soft forehead hair, "...I think this is very good, Your Majesty, would you like to try?"

"Don't mess around." Yan Tuo said, "Why don't you go home these days? What else is there to do at the military headquarters?"

He read the report these days, except for the summary of this war, he didn't see any other noteworthy news.

"The Ninth Division is researching a new training method, training top fighters to foresee the dangers they may encounter in the future in a very short period of time, so as to avoid them." Shi Yan explained simply.

"Foresee the future?" Yan Tuo suddenly thought of the mirror he received a few years ago, and then remembered that Shi Yan had told him that his wormhole was an independent space in the universe, like an eye higher than the universe In the same way, it can go back to the past, and it can also reflect the future.It's just that before that, he never connected that mirror with Shi Yan.

Shi Jin nodded: "The future in a small space and time range is inextricably linked with its past and present, so there are traces to follow, that is, it may be predicted. For example, nine Now it is possible to foresee the dangers that may occur within half a minute of a soldier’s perception range on the battlefield, and avoiding this can reduce a lot of losses.”

"How does that compare to your wormhole?" Yan Tuogang took off his coat and put it on the sofa beside him, pretending to be casual.

"Of course my wormhole is powerful. The future that my wormhole can see is not limited by time and space. How can these predictions simulated by human technology compare with mine?" Shi Yan said proudly.

Yan Tuo nodded, took his lover to the small study room, pointed to the mirror hanging on the wall and said, "Then this is the birthday present you gave me the year we announced our engagement?"

Thinking about it now, the only person who can put such a mirror with miraculous effects into his palace without anyone noticing it is Shi Ji.

Yan Tuo did not only use this mirror once.Human curiosity is the most difficult to restrain. Even after succeeding to the throne, he can't help but use this mirror to look at the "future" of himself and Shi Yan, but the scenes he experiences are more out of the ordinary every time. As a result, every year when Jin took him to the wormhole lair to toss, he felt that it was nothing compared to the scene in the mirror.

Shi Yan immediately realized what Yan Tuo was referring to. Thinking of what he had done with this mirror, he immediately felt guilty, and quickly explained: "This mirror can indeed see the future...for other people , they can see the scene that happened in a not-too-distant time that is related to them. But for you... what this mirror sees is not the future, but your wish."

"My wish?!" Yan Tuo opened his eyes wide in disbelief and looked at his lover.

Could it be that my wish is to be tossed about in different ways by Shi Yan?He has always thought that he is a king who strives hard to govern, but he never thought that he would be indulged in the queen's beauty, thinking all day long that he would flirt with the queen in various ways.

His Majesty Yan Tuo's hands trembled, and what made him feel even more disturbed was that he actually felt that it would not be unreasonable to say that he was such a licentious person who was obsessed with making out with the queen—the whole palace knew how much he loved him. Time silence.

"To be exact, it's our wish." Shi Yan coughed softly, "This mirror is condensed with my power, so every time you use it, I can sense... I will Join my consciousness and build the mirror illusion scene together with you."

To be exact, those scenes are most likely constructed by Shi Ji himself.

In fact, Shiji's original intention is beautiful and simple.

He hopes to know his lover's wish through this mirror, and at the same time he is confident and sure that as long as it is Yan Tuo's wish, he can turn it into reality.

In this way, all Yan Tuo's wishes will become "things that will happen in the future", and he uses his own power to create a gimmick for the mirror that "can see the future".

He guessed that Yan Tuo's cautious character would definitely verify the function of this mirror and whether it was harmful, so when other people used the mirror, they could really see the near future. Only when Yan Tuo used it himself, what he saw was his own. desire.

But Yan Tuo's wish is very simple. Every time he tries to see the future, the only wish in his heart is to be with his lover.

Shi Yan is happy and satisfied, and can't help but add his own consciousness to Yan Tuo's mirror illusion to realize Yan Tuo's wish of "being with his lover", and at the same time take this opportunity to fulfill all his wishes...

I have already bullied once in the illusion, if I want to bully again as it is in reality, Shi Yan feels that it is unnecessary, those things will only happen once in the illusion in the mirror, and will not recur in reality .

So over time, this mirror, which originally had a powerful prophecy function, has been exerting completely different effects from "prophecy" and "fulfillment of wishes" in Yan Tuo's place.

If the mirror had spirits, they would probably feel ashamed as well, and the feeling might be similar to that of an academician of a research institute being forced to switch careers to become a bustard.
