"What? You say." Huo Qixiao's eyes lit up.
As long as he is willing to negotiate the conditions, he will naturally not want to give up either of them if he can save two people.
The man curled his lips and said, "Your Majesty, you are precious. If you are willing to commit suicide, I will release these two women. How do you think?"
"You!" Huo Qixiao hadn't expected his request to be like this. "That won't do. Change it."
"It seems that, compared to all of this, you, Your Highness, are more important." The man played with the knife in his hand. "Indeed, no one's life is more precious than yours."
"Okay, stop wasting time and choose quickly. If you don't choose, I'll throw both of them down."
Huo Qixiao had no choice but to look back and forth between the two people.
The final look he gave Shu Muyun was filled with reluctance and guilt.
Shu Muyun naturally understood the guilt in his eyes.
This guilt was different from the guilt she had seen before, the guilt that was because of her suffering.
This meant he was planning to give up on her, and she was suddenly filled with grief.
Tears welled up in her eyes and she kept shaking her head, "No... Prince... No, save me..."
There was no doubt that she was afraid, fearing that she would be pushed off the city wall at the next moment.
She turned to look at Tu Qingyu, but saw that there was no fear on Tu Qingyu's face, nor did he beg for mercy. He looked calm as if it was not her who was about to be pushed down.
Why?
Could it be that she is so sure that the prince will choose her?
Yes, she is a daughter of the Tu family.
This time the prince came to quell the rebellion, and to do so he needed the help of General Tu's former soldiers.
If something happens to the girl from the Tu family at this time, Yuezhou will only become more and more chaotic.
She looked up at the dark clouds gradually pressing towards them and felt that the world was truly unfair.
She wants to live a good life, why is it so difficult?
Tu Qingyu naturally also saw the reluctance in Huo Qixiao's eyes towards Shu Muyun.
Tu Qingyu: "No way, no way? He doesn't choose Shu Muyun when he has to choose between the two? He chooses me?"
Dabao: "The plot has changed, and the importance of the two people in his heart has naturally changed as well."
Tu Qingyu: "This won't work. How can I fake my death?"
So, in front of everyone's astonished eyes, amidst thunder and lightning, she pushed away the criminal who was holding her hostage, and then jumped off the city wall.
Her clothes fluttered and when she jumped out, she looked like a flying butterfly.
"princess--!"
“Tu Qingyu——!”
"elder sister--!"
Everyone was caught off guard, their pupils trembling.
Including Ming Chuji who just arrived.
As soon as he arrived in Yuezhou, his sister fell down in front of him under the city wall.
Just a little bit, he rode his horse as fast as he could to catch her.
But it was just a little bit off.
"Sister..." The horse stopped and he almost fell off.
Looking at the person lying not far away with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, his mind went blank.
He stumbled over and knelt beside her, stretching out his trembling hand, wanting to touch her but not daring to.
"You, why are you...sister...why are you jumping?" Her voice was almost hoarse, and she couldn't control her tears.
Tu Qingyu stretched out his bloody hand and held his, "Don't cry, it doesn't hurt."
It really doesn't hurt, but I feel powerless and can't control my body.
"How can it not hurt... It's so high, how can it not hurt... Sister, why on earth? Why did you jump?"
He couldn't understand it, even though he had clearly promised it.
He has been working very hard to arrange it, and it won't be long before they can be together without involving anyone else.
Why not wait for him?
Or is it that my sister has been heartbroken by the King of Qi and doesn't want to live anymore?
So why lie to him?
He was angry and hateful, but no amount of anger or hatred could cover up the despair and sadness in his heart.
It is undeniable that she felt heartbroken when she cried.
She stretched out her hand with difficulty, wanting to wipe his tears, but Ming Chuji dodged her.
"Hate me?" She raised her eyebrows and curled her lips.
"I hate you so much." Ming Chuji gritted his teeth, then carefully picked her up and held her in his arms. "Sister, I'll take you to see a doctor right now. We have a miracle doctor in our Ming family who will definitely be able to cure you. Sister, please don't leave me. Have you forgotten what you promised me?"
"I haven't forgotten. Don't cry yet." She quietly stuffed a ball of paper into his palm. "Take a good look at it when you get back."
"I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it, please don't leave." He shook his head stubbornly, "Sister, please don't leave, I have arranged everything, sister... please, I beg you... please don't abandon me..."
He was so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe, but he still begged Tu Qingyu again and again not to abandon him.
"If you want to see it, Ming Chuji, you better be obedient and watch carefully."
"I don't want to be obedient, you are all lying, please, sister..."
Dabao: "Master, time is running out. This body needs to enter the recovery period."
Tu Qingyu: "I understand. I wonder what this kid will look like in a year."
Seeing her eyelids drooping lower and lower, Ming Chuji felt more and more desperate.
"Sister... please don't sleep, don't sleep... please..."
"You, eat well... grow up well..."
After she said the last sentence, she closed her eyes.
"Sister...?" Ming Chuji called out cautiously when he noticed that she had closed her eyes.
Not getting a response, he was completely stunned, and then he started shaking, hugging Tu Qingyu's body, trembling uncontrollably.
