The sharp blade was unsheathed, and the cold light was so sharp that even though it was several feet away, one could still feel the sharpness of the blade.
Xia Yuanqiu said to Zhu Sheng: "Zhu Sheng, in this life, you have lived in vain as a son and as a brother. Your father treated you sincerely, but you retaliated with betrayal. My younger brother treated you kindly, but you repaid you with a sharp blade. You are so immoral and unworthy." How can a man who does this deserve to be a king? Even as a human being, he is not worthy of being a king."
Zhu Sheng ignored Xia Yuanqiu and only stared at Zhu Yan. He still didn't believe that Zhu Yan would really use his own life to exchange for Xia Yuanqiu's life. But when Zhu Yan pulled out the sharp blade from its sheath, a look of despair appeared on his face. The look of determination and the lack of regret in his eyes made his heart tremble. He once said in front of Yuan Qiu that all the sons of the Tian family are cold-blooded people. It turns out that he is the only one who is cold-blooded. Zhu Yan No, he fought his way into the palace to save his father, and he was willing to trade his life for Xia Yuanqiu to survive in order to save the woman he loved.
So he can get the wholehearted love from his father and Xia Yuanqiu, but he, Zhu Sheng, can't because he has a cold nature and doesn't deserve it
"No, no!" Xia Yuanqiu struggled desperately, trying to get rid of Zhu Sheng's control, trying to stop Zhu Yan, but in vain. He watched Zhu Yan raise his right arm, the extremely sharp tip of the knife, Aiming at his chest.
At that critical moment, a stone was thrown from Zhu Sheng's palm. The stone hit Zhu Yan's wrist and knocked the sharp blade to the ground.
But in an instant, Zhu Sheng's figure was as majestic as a jade mountain. He seemed to have aged ten years in a breath. His handsome face was full of bitterness. He let go of Xia Yuanqiu and murmured: "It was my fault. Has it happened? Was it me who was wrong all along? "
He has been fighting for as long as he can remember, fighting for profit and power in various ways, but he has never fought for favor in front of his father, because he wants to use his actions to prove himself and let his father The emperor saw how good he was and truly loved and protected his son.
But all along, he thought that in his father's eyes, he only had Zhu Yan who had made countless military exploits, and he had never seen Zhu Sheng who had made huge profits for the treasury.
So he hates, so he wants to take away everything that belongs to Zhu Yan, but all of this does not belong to him, it did not belong to him in the past, and it will not belong to him in the future.
He let go of Xia Yuanqiu and sighed: "You did not choose the wrong person after all. He is very good, very good, and worthy of you."
Xia Yuanqiu didn't care about anything else and threw herself into the arms of Zhu Yan who was already walking towards her. She beat his chest desperately and cried, "Asshole, you actually want to leave me. You are so cruel!"
Zhu Yan hugged her tightly, as if he were hugging a lost treasure, so hard and carefully, his originally sad heart was filled in an instant, so satisfied, as if he had no regrets in his life.
A sound of breaking wind sounded from behind Zhu Yan. Xia Yuanqiu raised his eyes and saw a sharp arrow coming through the clouds. The tip of the arrow pointed at Zhu Yan's back.
Without thinking too much, she pushed him away with all her strength, but the swift arrow pierced into her left shoulder with a 'swish' sound. The arrow was so fierce that after she was stabbed, After continuously retreating to release his strength, he stepped on the slippery bluestone step by step. He lost his balance for a moment and fell off the cliff.
Zhu Yan, who was violently pushed away by Xia Yuanqiu, steadied himself on the bank. When he turned around, he saw Xia Yuanqiu's arrow falling off the cliff. His heart suddenly hurt as if it was being torn apart. He roared wildly and threw himself forward, but failed. Grabbing half of Xia Yuanqiu's clothes, he didn't think much and jumped down resolutely, hoping to catch up with Yuan Qiu's falling body, even if he died, so that he could keep her company.
