Su Yuxin's eyes were filled with fear: "You... you mean to let me... let me..."
"No! I can't! I can't!" Ever since she killed her mother with her own hands, she has had nightmares every night since she came to this farm.
Every night she would dream of her mother covering her neck with blood gushing out, looking for her to claim her life, and asking her why she wanted to kill herself.
She didn't dare to sleep all night, and couldn't sleep. Only at noon would she dare to lie in the yard under the sun and close her eyes for a while.
Days like this seem like there will never be a day of sunshine. If she kills someone again, how will she live in the future
Su Yuxin held her head and shook it vigorously. The more she thought about it, the more scared she became.
Su Qiao gently stroked her head and spoke slowly, "It hurts a lot when the fire burns. It's countless times more painful than a heart attack, and the process is very torturous. If the fire was a little smaller, it might burn for three days and three nights, and the person might not die."
"Do you think it's better for you to suffer this, or for others to suffer this? I've given you the chance to choose, so you must seize it."
"I... I..." Su Yuxin was scared and terrified, but she knew she had no choice.
He bit his lower lip, his lips trembling, "Really... do we really have to do this?"
Su Qiao smiled without showing her teeth, but with a smile in her eyes: "What do you think?"
Su Yuxin's face was pale, and she clenched her fists, but a desire to live rose in her eyes.
In her previous life, she died young and was finally reborn. She didn't want her life to end just when it was just beginning.
She wants to live, and she wants to live freely and have a rich life.
"If...if I really do this, will you keep your promise and keep me...keep me safe and prosperous for the rest of my life?"
Su Qiao raised his lips and nodded: "Since you and I are related by blood, I will not go back on my promise to you."
"Actually, although your leg will be a little disabled after it heals, your walking will just be a little more awkward, but you will still be able to walk. You can go wherever you want to play in the future. It's up to you. I won't restrict your freedom."
Su Yuxin was finally moved. She gritted her teeth and said, "Then... I'll go."
She nodded, and Su Qiao waved towards the door. Soon two palace maids came over, helped Su Yuxin onto the carriage outside, and sent her to the manor where the fourth prince was imprisoned.
Xi Hanzhou, who was waiting outside, glanced at the carriage going away and walked into the yard, obviously unhappy: "Why did you send her there?"
"You'll know soon." Being killed by the woman he loved most, he must feel very aggrieved and cowardly!
Su Qiao looked outside the courtyard gate mysteriously, stood up, patted the dust off his butt, stretched out his hand and pulled him out again: "Let's go hunting in the mountains outside the city."
Xi Hanzhou's unhappiness instantly disappeared: "Can I ride on the same horse with you this time?"
"How can we hunt if we ride a horse?" Su Qiao was speechless.
This guy is still talking about how she always refused to ride a horse with him when they were outside the Great Wall.
"Why not?" Xi Hanzhou didn't think the two had anything to do with each other.
"You are now my legitimate Crown Princess, and we will be married soon. Who dares to say anything nonsense? Gu Kan..."
As soon as he said this, Xi Hanzhou remembered something and quickly stopped talking.
He is now the calm and wise prince in her words, and he absolutely cannot draw his knife at every turn.
