Seventeen had no name, just Seventeen.

When His Majesty brought him back, he was the seventeenth, so he was named Seventeen.

Every day, Seventeen looked forward to His Majesty coming to see him again, but each time he was met with disappointment.

He was older, and his martial arts were a bit lacking, but his body was soft enough. It so happened that at this time, His Majesty specifically assigned him to be his personal guard.

Seventeen looked at the man who was still outstandingly handsome after so many years, and something in his heart seemed to stir slightly.

When following His Majesty, Seventeen looked at the tall figure of the other person and vaguely felt as if he would be a shadow for a lifetime.

Changes always come so quickly. His Majesty's younger brother specifically brought precious gifts to ask for an imperial guard to protect him for a period.

His Majesty was very generous, telling him to choose from the camp, but that person chose Seventeen, who silently followed behind His Majesty.

"Imperial Brother, since this imperial guard can follow by your side, his martial arts must be very superb. Why don't you give him to me?"

Seventeen saw His Majesty hesitate for a moment, then nodded and agreed.

Seventeen had very few belongings, not even many changes of clothes. He just left with that person. Before leaving, he looked back, somewhat against protocol, at His Majesty, and their eyes met.

Protecting His Majesty's younger brother was much more dangerous than protecting His Majesty. There were countless assassinations, some from enemies, and some from... beauty.

His Majesty's younger brother told him that his identity was special, and many people dared not attack His Majesty, so they targeted him. Therefore, Seventeen needed to pretend to be his beloved to deal with some overt and covert attacks.

Seventeen agreed; he had no room to refuse.

Finally, after the mission ended, he returned to the shadows behind His Majesty, but His Majesty's gaze seemed to hold something more when he looked at him.

"Your Majesty, you... shouldn't wear so little, you'll catch a cold."

"Your Majesty... if you bathe in a warm pool, you don't need to strip so completely..."

"Does His Majesty like... such fancy colors?"

"...Your Majesty, your subordinate really doesn't want to marry a woman... What? No, no, how could your subordinate possibly like him!!"

When Seventeen was held in His Majesty's arms, he was still a bit confused and cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, do you hold other imperial guards like this too?"

Long Langyue: ......

Seventeen, shedding tears, tried to escape but was caught again.

His Majesty and his name are not alike at all; he is not at all like a clear breeze and bright moon!

Keyword: I have my own discernment.

Intent: To contribute to the great scenery.
