“Eldest Prince, is it too late for me to apologize now?” Lin Chujiu asked, then got up and bowed ninety degrees.
Xuanyuan Zhi didn’t let Lin Chujiu get up, nor did he accept Lin Chujiu’s apology. He let Lin Chujiu stay bent over and said: “Give this prince the antidote, then this prince will spare your life.”
“The eldest prince, you know… … it is impossible.” Lin Chujiu stood up straight without even thinking about it.
“Are you going to use your life for theirs?” Xuanyuan Zhijian raised an eyebrow while looking at her unbelievable.
“Not for their lives but to protect my own life. The eldest prince should be very clear about my situation and wangye in the eastern country. Without these people, one of my feet will be buried in the graveyard.” She didn’t want to sacrifice herself, but if she let the Jinwuwei Army and the hundreds of thousands of troops die on the border, she wouldn’t be able to escape death afterward.
Sometimes people will encounter helpless situations. If she dies protecting the army, she will be branded as a hero. She will be recorded in history books and praised by historians even though she is a woman.
On the contrary, if all the frontier soldiers died, and she was the only one who survived. Even if those people didn’t die to protect her, she will be branded as a sinner. Perhaps, she will also be recorded in the history books, but at as infamy.
“It looks like you don’t intend to compromise.” Xuanyuan Zhi simply nodded his, without the intention of persuading. He stood up, scooped up everything on the table, and placed it on the plate, then… …
He handed the plate to Lin Chujiu and said with a smile: “This is the first time this prince serve someone, can Xiao Wangfei give this prince a face?” Today, Lin Chujiu has to eat even if she can’t eat or doesn’t want to eat unless she is willing to take out the antidote. It doesn’t matter to him the life and death of hundreds of thousands of troops on the border.
Even if the dishes in front of her were mixed, they still exude a strong fragrance. But Lin Chujiu and Xuanyuan Zhi both understand that this plate of dishes was not a “dish” but a “poisonous dish.” However, even knowing that something will happen to her after eating this plate of dishes, Lin Chujiu still has to eat it with a smile. “The eldest prince personally brought such meals. No need to mention how delicious these delicacies are, even if they are poison I will eat all of it.”
With a bright smile and gentle tone, it looked like Lin Chujiu doesn’t know what kind of consequences she will face after eating it.
“If that’s the case, then you should eat more. This prince doesn’t always serve people.” Even if this clever woman was unpleasant, Xuanyuan Zhi couldn’t help but appreciate her. And he found out that he admired Lin Chujiu more and more.
Even facing the shadow of death, she can still laugh heartlessly, which was even impossible for a man.
“I will live up to the eldest prince’s kindness.” Lin Chujiu took a step forward, sat down with the plate, picked up the chopsticks, and ate, behaving calmly without any worry or anxiety. She even praised the taste from time to time: “It tastes very good. ”
Xuanyuan Zhi looked at Lin Chujiu’s beautiful face and watched her eat the “highly toxic” food. He was startled for a moment: “What should I do, this prince likes you more and more.”
“You have the right to like me, and I also have the right to refuse you. The eldest prince, I am married.” Lin Chujiu’s tone was brisk, with a smile on her face, but she was scolding his mother in her heart: You like a fart. If you like me, why kill me face to face?
If this was Xuanyuan Zhi’s way to show his affection, she would rather like him to be affectionate to others. She was not a cat demon with nine lives. She doesn’t have nine lives to play with Xuanyuan Zhi… …
