The Queen Mother jumped from the tower, and His Majesty was reborn with fear

Yu Jinzhi didn't put up too much resistance on the way back, because she knew that she would be too busy and it would easily anger Xie Yuxiu, so she thought about having a good chat after she got back.

After returning to the camp, Xie Yuxiu dragged the man off the horse and went straight to his tent. Yu Jinzhi also began to panic.

"Your Majesty..." Yu Jinzhi still wanted to use the same tactics as before, so her eyes turned red.

Unfortunately, Xie Yuxiu no longer bought into this. He pulled her to the bed, and Yu Jinzhi sat down on it.

"You said it, you said you wouldn't force me..." Yu Jinzhi was still very scared of Xie Yuxiu who had gone crazy.

Xie Yuxiu looked at the person in front of him: "I did promise you, but this was all based on your deceiving me. Yu Jinzhi, you are really heartless."

"I said, I don't want to run away, but you just don't believe me." Yu Jinzhi also began to argue.

"Do you dare to say that you have no idea at all? Is it that you don't want to escape, or that you don't dare? Or is it because Xie Zhao is here?" Xie Yuxiu said this with a self-deprecating tone.

Yu Jinzhi opened her mouth.

"You are afraid of me, but you still dare to lie to me. Yu Jinzhi, am I too indulgent towards you? Do you think I really have no bottom line towards you?" Xie Yuxiu found it ridiculous.

Yu Jinzhi looked at his red eyes and said, "But between us, you were the one who wanted to force me."

"You were the one who forcibly took me into the palace. Don't you know how important Li's people are? But under such circumstances, you still locked me up in the palace regardless of everything. Do you know what people outside are talking about me?"

"You also forcibly wanted to possess me, and you repeatedly forced me regardless of my will, using such means to force me to submit to you."

"You want to trap me. It's you who locked me up in this deep palace. It's you who restricted my freedom. It's you who made me become the person I am now without any dignity."

"You say I'm heartless, you say I have no heart, but I just want to live a good life, to be respected, and to have the freedom I can get. I never thought of hurting you, nor did I think of taking revenge on you, so why are all the mistakes blamed on me in the end?" As Yu Jinzhi spoke, tears began to flow.

Xie Yuxiu fell silent, which was rare.

Yu Jinzhi also sat up straight on the bed.

"Have you seen the wounds on my body? Do you remember what I looked like before? Do you know the humiliation and suffering I have suffered after entering the palace? Do you know how those people in the harem treated me? What did I do wrong? It was not me who wanted to enter the palace, and it was not me who wanted to stay here on my own initiative. Am I wrong? What did I do wrong?" Yu Jinzhi's voice trembled unconsciously.

Xie Yuxiu also thought of what Yu Jinzhi had experienced before, including the moment when she jumped off the city wall in her previous life.

"But we are obviously getting better now. Why can't you be the same as you have been showing these days? We can stay like that forever." Xie Yuxiu said.

Yu Jinzhi smiled bitterly.

"Always like that? Then in your heart, can everything that happened in the past be treated as if it never happened? Do you think I should naturally forget everything that I encountered before? Can those things be erased at will just because of this sentence from you?" Yu Jinzhi continued to question.

This time it was Xie Yuxiu who was speechless.

"Do you know why I act like that? It's because I'm afraid of you, so I'm careful everywhere, and that's why I'm thinking about how to please you."

"But is that what I want? I'm different now. Have you ever seen me trying to please anyone? I don't want to be like this, but this is the only way I can live well. I live in fear every day, afraid that I'll make you unhappy. Are you still not satisfied?"

"You told me not to be afraid of you, but you said it yourself. Only when you are afraid will you learn your lesson. It was you who made me learn how to be afraid of you, so why are you blaming me now? Then what should I do to satisfy you? Just be a puppet without any thoughts?" It was rare for Yu Jinzhi to say such words in such a tone.

Xie Yuxiu's throat was also choked.

Is she wrong? It seems not.

Is he wrong? It seems he did something wrong...

But it was clearly she who provoked me first, and it was clearly she who first said she wanted to marry me. It was she who gave me hope, but in the end, it was she who shattered my own expectations.

"Now that things have happened, what else do you want to do? It's the same as before. Do you want to lock me up again? Do you want to use that method to make me surrender again? Do you want to force me again? Are you going to use them to threaten me again?" Yu Jinzhi suddenly felt tired and didn't even want to pretend anymore.

Xie Yuxiu just kept looking at her, and all his anger seemed to have calmed down at this moment.

Listening to Yu Jinzhi's questioning again and again, he was actually unable to answer.

"Xie Yuxiu, I will die..." Yu Jinzhi said again.

It was precisely because of this sentence that Xie Yuxiu's thoughts were suddenly pulled back.

"What did you say?" There was no emotion in his eyes.

Yu Jinzhi stood up from the bed.

"I said I would die... If you still want to use the same method as before, then I might end my own life. Because I don't want to live like that anymore. I don't want to be controlled by you, imprisoned by you, or threatened by you anymore." Yu Jinzhi spoke word by word, and the fear on her face no longer showed.

I originally thought that Xie Yuxiu would be furious when he heard this, but this time, he was able to remain expressionless, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

"Do you want to die?" Xie Yuxiu asked her.

"I don't want to die. If I can live a good life, who would want to die? But... it's you who want to force me to death." Yu Jinzhi looked into Xie Yuxiu's eyes without fear.

The two men stared at each other, neither giving in to the other. This kind of situation rarely happened between them.

After a long time, Xie Yuxiu finally took a step back and avoided her gaze.

"It doesn't matter. Let's die together. If you die, I will let them all be buried with you. The maids around you, Xie Zhao, your father, the servants of the general's mansion. In the end... it's me."

"When you die, I will kill them one by one, then kill myself, and have our bodies buried together, so that you can be tied to me completely. This is also good." The corners of Xie Yuxiu's eyes slowly turned red, even revealing that you are morbidly crazy.

Yu Jinzhi also widened her eyes in disbelief. Does he know what he is talking about?
