The substitute princess of the general who crossed over

You see, everything is so simple.

Xia Lin looked at the pages of the book that had been clenched in her hand, her makeup was stained with tears, and her face was already distorted from crying.What a terrible thing trust is, everything is so simple, but she didn't understand until now.

Everything Qin Xi did, Wu Nong's soft words when facing her, was like a slap with a blade in it, slapping her face hard, blood and flesh flying everywhere.

How could she treat herself like this?

Xia Lin covered her face and began to cry.

She clearly believes in her...

She was brought into this world alone by her, and before she had time to say goodbye to her parents, everything about her disappeared when she traveled through...

Just when she was clinging tightly to this life-saving straw called Qin Xi and was about to go ashore, the life-saving straw suddenly turned into a rose branch, and the sharp thorns made her dripping with blood.

She just wanted to let go of her hand and finish it all, but when she looked down, the women who died because of her blood exchange were waiting for her to fall in hell with their hideous faces and mouths wide open.

She has never been so desperate, even after time travel, she has never been so isolated and helpless.

Xia Lin sat on the ground for a long time, until the scorching sun turned into sunset, and the day turned into night.At a certain moment, her eyelashes flickered, then she blinked, and then stood up from the ground stiffly.

She held those pages in her arms and followed her into the secret room again.

Xia Lin took out the pages from her pocket and put them on the tea table.

"Master Xu."

Xu Shengqiu's eyes flashed, and he said, "I don't know what the princess said."

"Xu Shenghuai is your master."

Questions, but statements.

Xu Shengqiu suddenly raised his head to look at her, he was too shocked to speak.

"Your master brought Empress Lizhao back to life back then, and now you have brought me back to life for General Qin. You Bailong Temple are really good lackeys of the imperial court."

Xu Shengqiu lowered his head at this moment, intending not to speak again.

"Tell me, tell me everything from beginning to end." Xia Lin took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled, as if to sweep away the filth in her chest.

"Didn't the princess already know?" Xu Shengqiu said lightly.

Xia Lin twitched the corners of her mouth, but she didn't know if it was a sneer or self-deprecating.

Yes, she already knew that everything pointed to Qin Xi, and the female prisoners locked outside were the best evidence.But why did she listen to it again and tear up her scars again?

Because, she was still lucky, what if... what if it was a misunderstanding?

Even if the chance was one in ten thousand, she couldn't help but ask for confirmation, what if?

"The princess shouldn't come again, the general will be back soon." Xu Shengqiu glanced at the hourglass hanging outside the door, and reminded him aloud.

"Let's talk, since I can walk in again, I'm not afraid."

Now, what could be more important than the facts, do you still expect this to happen, and she still pretends not to know, whitewashing the peace?After being a fool for so long, it's time for her to wake up.

Xu Shengqiu did not expect her to be so tough, she seemed to be a little different from his previous perception of her, that woman who had no opinion and followed Qin Xi's steps...

"Don't waste time." Xia Lin knocked on the table impatiently, signaling him to hurry up.

Xu Shengqiu glanced at her, then opened his mouth and spoke slowly.

While listening, Xia Lin seemed to be pushed into the sea suddenly by a hand, and the cold sea water poured into her mouth and nose from all directions. Even though she struggled desperately, she could only sink deeper and deeper.

The water pressure on the bottom of the sea squeezed her internal organs, as if they were slowly dislocating, and the painful time was infinitely prolonged.

The beginning and end of the matter were no different from what she had guessed.

After the eldest princess committed suicide, Qin Xi captured Xu Shengqiu, the national teacher of the current dynasty, and imprisoned him in Taohuayuan, forcing him to refine soul transformation Gu.As a result, Qin Xi, who performed Gu, came to the modern age, and came to the side of Xia Lin who was the reincarnation of the eldest princess.

A mirror image often has two sides. When you look at yourself in the mirror, who knows if it is yourself in another world.

This is how Qin Xi used the camera to capture Xia Lin's soul, brought her from outside the mirror into the mirror, and brought her all the way to Daliang Country.

After arriving, Qin Xi found out that Xia Lin had suffered a backlash, and ordered someone to arrest the female prisoners outside to exchange blood for Xia Lin.

As blood vessels, they had no need to speak, so Qin Xi cut off their tongues.

"The hands in the outermost secret room belonged to a woman who tried to escape. I heard that she touched the corner of your skirt, so her hands were cut off."

After listening to the conversation, Xia Lin was drenched in sweat, as if she had just been picked up from the drizzling sea, and the clenched hands under the table couldn't stop shaking.

She remembered the woman who grabbed her and shouted for help, and she remembered the despair in her eyes.

And what did she do then?

She said to Qin Xi, "Don't kill her."

Qin Xi did not kill her, because she knew that this woman would die in the end, but she cut off both of her hands, which can be regarded as fulfilling Xia Rin's request.

Xia Lin wanted to pull the corners of her mouth and smile to show that she was fine.

But she opened her mouth and couldn't speak for a long time, tears flowed down her cheeks into her mouth, salty.

Both of them didn't speak any more, and Xia Rin also knew that the one ten-thousandth thought was gone, so she sat there motionless in a daze.

"If you want to know, why don't you ask me?"

A familiar voice came from behind, and Xia Lin turned her head suddenly. Her tears were still wet, but she vaguely saw Qin Xi standing at the door in a black robe, like a ball of ink, dizzy with tears, blending into one with the surrounding dim yellow lights.

Qin Xi just looked at her like this, and the tearful man in front of him pulled away from her all of a sudden.Seeing her stand up, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

In the next second, the whole person collapsed due to exhaustion.

"Xia Rin!!!" Qin Xi stepped forward and took her into his arms. Maybe it was because she cried too much today, but Qin Xi felt that she was much lighter.

Xia Lin fainted, Qin Xi was about to step up and carry her back to the room, but Xu Shengqiu behind him spoke.

"Why don't you lie to her to the end?"

Qin Xi stopped in his tracks, Xu Shengqiu's voice was full of sadness, and he continued, "Why do you want her to know this? Isn't it good to keep lying to her?"

Qin Xi didn't speak, but he no longer hesitated, and walked towards the secret room with big strides.

Sooner or later you have to know, don't you?

If she wants to drink the Solidifying Gu willingly, she will have to know sooner or later.In this case, it is better to die early than to be born happy.

She suffers any consequences, whether she hates it or resents it, as long as it is given by her, she can embrace it with open arms.

"General, the princess hasn't had a drop of water for several days." Zhiwen stood at the door of the study, timidly reporting Xia Lin's recent situation to Qin Xi.

Qin Xi didn't answer, but just flipped through the notes that Xia Lin had written on the paper in his hand.

"General?"

Zhiwen called again, Qin Xi raised his head and said, "Understood, you go down."

Knowing the news, he didn't dare to question it, so he responded and withdrew.

But how could Xia Lin eat it?

Qin Xi's lies and betrayals were like a huge lead stone stuck in her chest, which kept her in the way all the time, making it hard for her to breathe and swallow.

Everything here made her sick, and she wanted to go home, but she couldn't wait to kill herself.

The door creaked open.

Xia Lin said wearily, "I told you not to eat, I know you don't want to come in again."

As soon as she looked up, she saw Qin Xi walking towards her with a bowl of porridge.

Qin Xi also looked at her, not missing the obvious disgust in her eyes.

"Eat something, I'll feed you."

Qin Xi sat down by the bed, stirred the soup spoon in the porcelain bowl, and handed it to Xia Lin's mouth.

However, Xia Lin violently waved away the spoon that Qin Xi had brought over.The porridge was spilled, and Qin Xicui couldn't guard against her movements, and the bowl of porridge covered her all over.

"Are you disgusting?" Xia Lin's eyes were full of sneering smiles, she did not hide her emotions at all, and tried her best to provoke her with vicious words.

Qin Xi didn't answer, but stood up calmly, took another bowl of porridge from the table, and brought it to Xia Lin.She had already predicted Xia Lin's attitude, so she prepared a lot of bowls and lined them up on the dinner plate.

"Drink some, I'm not in good health."

Xia Lin pursed her lips, determined not to open her mouth, and Qin Xi just held the spoon like this.

The two were at a stalemate, and Xia Lin finally said, "Aren't you afraid to force me to commit suicide again?"

Qin Xi still didn't change his face, and said lightly, "Of course I can't control you, but you have to know that I don't care about killing people. One more wound on your body will bring one more corpse to Taohuayuan. If you die, the whole Taohuayuan will be destroyed." I will be buried with you."

"You!" Xia Lin's eyes were swollen with anger, but she still had nothing to do with Qin Xi.

"Let's eat quickly. Old Zhiwen bothers me because of this matter. Whenever she annoys me, I feel bad. I feel bad..."

"I'll eat it!" Xia Lin snatched the bowl from Qin Xi's hand, "I'll eat it."

After finishing speaking, Xia Lin picked up the bowl, closed her eyes and poured the porridge into her throat, regardless of whether it was hot or whether she would choke.

Qin Xi opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, watching her drink up the bowl of porridge, leaving nothing left.

Xia Lin threw the bowl back into Qin Xi's arms, Qin Xi smiled and reached out to rub her head.

"It's good to be early."

Xia Lin tilted her head and walked away, "You can go out, if you can, I hope I don't see you."

Qin Xi paused with his hand outstretched in mid-air, and the smile on his face froze. It took him a long time to speak, his voice dry and hoarse, "As you wish."

Qin Xi had indeed fulfilled her wish, and hadn't come to see her for a long time.

Xia Lin was depressed for a while, and finally felt that she couldn't go on like this.Things have come to such a point, is she going to spend her whole life here?

No, she wants to go home, she wants to go back.

Xia Lin finally got out of bed, knowing that her mood had been ups and downs, chatting happily beside her.

Xu was quiet for too long, but Xia Lin didn't even feel upset, so she let her go.

"Where's the general?" Xia Lin suddenly asked Qin Xi, she was taken aback for a moment, she hadn't heard these two words from Xia Lin's mouth for a long time.

"The... general is out."

"Okay, go down, don't follow me."

Xia Lin got up, left Zhiwen and walked towards the study.

She still has to see Xu Shengqiu, and she still has to finish asking what she didn't finish last time.Since he can bring himself, he must be able to let himself go back, no matter what the price is, she wants to go back.

When she stood in front of the secret passage again, Xia Lin felt that she still overestimated her psychological endurance, her nails were almost sunk into the flesh, her teeth were embedded in her lower lip, and she was about to bleed from biting.

The secret passage is still the same as when she left, even the degree of staggering between the ground and the wall has not changed.

Yes, Xia Lin smiled.

She already knew the truth, so there was no need to cover up.
