Chapter 502: Subjugating Xingye
Hoshino Ruo was already blinded by hatred, and the moment he learned that Jinhua was dead, Hoshino wanted to destroy everything.
But he doesn't have the ability to do so now, so he can only leave the capital first and then slowly make plans.
Anyway, he is still young and has plenty of time.
"Xingye, you don't think that the people who have been chasing you these days are our people, right?" Su Chenyu asked.
Xingye smiled coldly: "I know, it was Qiongxiao who planted the people before her death. No matter what happened on her side, I had to die. But Qiongxiao was still a little short, and those people died in my hands. I didn't expect that you followed the trail of those people and found me."
Su Chenyu was too lazy to say anything more to him: "If it wasn't for Jinhua, do you think we would be willing to come out to look for you so late?"
Hearing Su Chenyu mention Jinhua, Xingye's expression changed slightly: "What do you mean?"
Handan came out. Seeing Handan, Xingye's face became even angrier: "Handan, it's you who betrayed Jinhua."
Handan simply handed Jinhua's suicide note to Xingye: "You should recognize the Saint's handwriting. This is what she left behind, take a look."
Regardless of whether there was a trick or not, Xingye would not let go of anything related to Jinhua, so he took the letter, opened it and started reading.
When he read to the end, Hoshino's tears fell down in big drops, soaking the letter paper.
At this moment, the high wall of hatred in Hoshino's heart collapsed.
“Xingye, I am an orphan who was rescued from the street by the Saint. I have been with the Saint all these years. I know she wants freedom, but this freedom is definitely not at the cost of the lives of innocent people.
You are her brother, and you hope that she can be free, but the Saint also hopes that you will not bear any sins. The Saint wants to protect you, so she uses her death to untie the shackles on you. Xingye, don't make the mistake again. "
Listening to Handan's words, Xingye knelt on the ground, holding the letter left by Jinhua, crying like a child.
"In fact, the person I hate the most is myself." Xingye said with sobs, "I often wonder, if I had held her hand a little tighter at the beginning, would she and I have never been separated? She would not have become a saint who is free, and I would not have become what I am now..."
Looking at the depressed Xingye, Su Chenyu felt a little emotional.
Was Hoshino wrong? He might be wrong, but he didn't seem to be wrong either.
Hoshino is just a victim of the South Vietnamese Saint, Lidu.
The subjects of Nanyue deified the saint, but forgot that she also had emotions and desires, and had relatives.
How could their relatives not seek revenge when they saw the person they loved most being forced to become a soulless person?
But this revenge was too brutal for the people of South Vietnam.
"Xingye, I promise you that from now on, there will be no more saints in South Vietnam!"
Hearing Su Chenyu's words, Xingye suddenly raised his head: "Now that you have conquered South Vietnam, the people's hearts are already unstable. If you appoint a saint, it will help you stabilize the people's hearts. If you go against the wishes of the South Vietnamese subjects, they will be even more dissatisfied with you."
“If I can only gain the trust of my subjects by relying on the saint girl, then I, as an emperor, am too cowardly.” From now on, there will no longer be any Nanyue, only the southern border of Dayu.
Xingye understood what Su Chenyu meant: "I didn't expect that Your Majesty is the one who knows Jinhua best. She didn't mention a single word about the Saint in the letter, but Your Majesty helped her fulfill her final wish."
What Jinhuan wants is not just one person's freedom, she hopes that there will never be another saint in the future.
