The temperature in the tent suddenly dropped, and Situ Xunxiao's originally good mood also changed in an instant. He looked at Zongzheng Xiaoting coldly with a frown, and a voice that sounded like gnashing teeth escaped from his lips, "You still haven't given up until today?"
"Being born into a royal family means that there are too many things that are beyond one's control. No matter whether one is a man or a woman, in the end, one cannot escape the choice of fate. Your Highness, these things are beyond one's control. Isn't it because one has no choice that one can only accept one's fate? I have never been a person who accepts fate. As long as there is a chance, I want to control my own destiny. Since there is a chance, why should I give up?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at Situ Xunxiao and smiled faintly. "What is the matter with you in this world?" There are many rumors about Prince Wang, and there are various versions, but only Prince Wang knows what happened! Prince Wang, if you have a choice, would you be willing to accept your fate? In fact, Prince Wang, who seems to be in a good position, has been feeling miserable these years, and only he knows it. Xiaoting has suffered more, and Prince Wang, since we are in the same boat, why don't we each take what we need? We are both in the same boat, so why should we force each other and torture each other?"
For the first time, the person in front of him showed such a confused and distressed look. The helplessness between the lines made Situ Xunxiao feel heartbroken, but also filled with a strong sense of powerlessness and jealousy.
Or maybe the source of her pain came from her father's secret letter, because of the marriage and her status, her life was doomed, and she could only bury that love. But as she said, she was unwilling to accept her fate, so she took the opportunity to escape the marriage during the marriage, and her fantasy was to live together and be free and easy, right?
There has been someone in her heart for a long time, and she is afraid that she cannot get close to anyone else. However, when she thought she could live happily with the one she loves, she was captured by the person she least wants to contact and the one she must marry. This in itself is full of infinite sorrow!
Seeing Zongzheng Xiaoting like this, Situ Xunxiao's heart wavered. "Then what do you think, Princess?"
"In fact, considering your wisdom, do you really think that my father's cooperation is the best cooperation? If we were in different places, would you be happy to see my father's success and watch him grow stronger?"
This speech was something Situ Xunxiao had not expected. You know, once this was said, even if the contents of the secret letter were not fully disclosed, it would still arouse suspicion. What exactly was Zong Zheng Xiaoting trying to do by doing this?
"It is natural for your father to love the princess."
"Really?" Zongzheng Xiaoting raised her eyebrows and looked at Situ Xunxiao seriously. "Your Highness would rather believe in human feelings, but this princess believes more in the cruelty of the emperor's heart."
To Situ Xunxiao, these words sounded more like disregarding everything for love. He narrowed his eyes dangerously and grabbed Zongzheng Xiaoting's wrist, "For the sake of Gongsun Zixing, you can disregard the safety of your own country, and disregard that these words will lead to a mutiny between the two countries?"
Looking at the angry man in front of him, Zong Zheng Xiaoting knew that his goal could be achieved. Yes, Situ Xunxiao knew his secret letter, so he naturally knew what would happen if it fell into the hands of others? No matter how stupid anyone is, even if they want to make a deal, they will not push themselves into an irreversible situation. Therefore, if he did not have a good reason to take this risk, he would never say such a thing to him.
In his heart, he would only think that what he said was just to pursue what he loved, and he didn't care about the country. But he didn't know, because he already knew that he was familiar with the contents of the secret letter, so he could infer that whether he said this or not, the result would be the same. It was precisely because of his ignorance that he gave himself the opportunity to perform this drama.
One has a loved one, one does not care about himself, and the other can ignore her country for the one she loves. This can only prove that she loves that person more than her own life! Perhaps, when they met in Cuiyun Palace that night, she did not care about death because she felt hopeless and fearless. And her nature is to ask for money, maybe it is to have the opportunity to escape with money after leaving the palace and ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing!
With this sudden realization, Situ Xunxiao's heart suddenly ached. He was afraid that no matter what he did, all he would get in return would be a thank you.
Seeing Situ Xunxiao's inner conflict, Zongzheng Xiaoting took advantage of the situation and said, "No matter who I am doing this for, I am doing my best for the person I care about most. Why should you be obsessed with who this person is?"
"What qualifications do you have to negotiate terms with me?" Situ Xunxiao snorted coldly.
"Just because you, Your Highness, risked your life to save this princess, I know that at least I am still of use to you. As for what kind of use, I don't care at all, and I don't need to know whether you want to use me to stop Gong Yunluo and Gong Yunfei's delusions, or whether Your Highness needs to use me to shock your emperor, or even other things. To me, it's insignificant." Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at Situ Xunxiao calmly, not surprised by the humiliation.
Utilization value?
These four words undoubtedly hit Situ Xunxiao's heart hard. In the eyes of Zong Zheng Xiaoting, what he did was actually selfless and done just for the sake of being useful?
She is indeed heartless! But think about it, if she didn't think so, she wouldn't have suspected me and poisoned her in the cave. From the beginning to the end, she, Zong Zheng Xiaoting, had already identified herself as the killer, right?
That's fine! Now, if she knew that I was in such a ridiculous emotion and was so desperate, I'm afraid she would despise me even more. She might even think that I had to bring her back with a purpose and with evil intentions.
"In that case, Princess, please behave like my princess, instead of confronting me in front of others."
"If someone doesn't bite me, I won't bother with her. If the prince is not biased, I won't be aggressive. But there is one thing, I hope the prince understands." Zong Zheng Xiaoting smiled, "I cooperate with the prince, and everything I show is not only for the prince to see, but also for me, so I hope the prince can show unpredictable emotions and care."
Situ Xunxiao stared at Zongzheng Xiaoting for a long time, and finally nodded, "As you wish!"
After saying this, Situ Xunxiao turned away.
