Chapter 379 Repentance

The sharp blade was out of its sheath, and the cold light was so sharp that even a few feet away, one could still feel the sharpness of that precious blade.

Xia Yuanqiu turned to Zhu Sheng and said, "Zhu Sheng, in this life, you have been a son and a brother in vain. Your father treats you with sincerity, but you repay him with betrayal; your brother treats you with kindness, but you repay him with a sharp blade. How can a man of action be worthy of being king? Even being a man is not worthy.”

Zhu Sheng ignored Xia Yuanqiu, and only stared at Zhu Yan. He still didn't believe that Zhu Yan would really exchange his life for Xia Yuanqiu's, but when Zhu Yan pulled the sharp knife out of its scabbard, there was a terrible look on his face. The look of determination and the unrepentant expression in his eyes made his heart tremble. He once said in front of Yuan Qiu that Tianjiaerlang is full of cold-hearted people. It turns out that he is the only one who is cold-hearted. Zhu Yan No, he desperately entered the palace, in order to save his father, he was willing to exchange his life for Xia Yuanqiu to survive in order to save his beloved woman.

That's why he was able to get the wholehearted love of his father and Xia Yuanqiu, but Zhu Sheng couldn't, because his nature was cold and unworthy?

"Don't, don't!" Xia Yuanqiu struggled desperately, trying to get rid of Zhu Sheng's control, trying to stop Zhu Yan, but in vain, watching Zhu Yan raise his right arm, the incomparably sharp knife point, Aim at your chest.

At that critical moment, a stone was thrown from Zhu Sheng's palm, and the stone hit Zhu Yan's wrist, knocking the sharp blade to the ground.

But in an instant, Zhu Sheng's figure like a jade mountain was about to urge him, as if he had aged ten years in an instant, his handsome face was full of bitterness, he let go of Xia Yuanqiu, and whispered: "It's my fault." Is it? Is it my fault all along?"

He has fought, since he can remember, he has been fighting, fighting for profit and power in various ways, but he has never fought for favor in front of his father, because he wants to use his actions to prove himself and let his father Seeing his kindness, the emperor sincerely loved his son.

But all along, he thought that in the eyes of his father, there was only Zhu Yan who had made countless military exploits, and he had never seen Zhu Sheng who made huge profits for the treasury.

That's why he hates, that's why he wants to take away everything that belongs to Zhu Yan, but all of this doesn't belong to him, it didn't belong to him before, and it won't belong to him in the future.

He let go of Xia Yuanqiu, and sighed: "After all, you didn't choose the wrong person. He is very good, very good, enough to be worthy of you."

Xia Yuanqiu didn't care about other things, threw herself into the arms of Zhu Yan who was already walking towards her, beat his chest desperately, and cried, "Bastard, you want to abandon me, you are so cruel!"

Zhu Yan hugged her tightly, as if embracing a lost and recovered treasure, so hard and careful, the originally sad heart was filled in an instant, so satisfied, as if he had no regrets in his life.

A sound of breaking wind sounded from behind Zhu Yan, Xia Yuanqiu raised his eyes, and saw a sharp arrow coming through the clouds, and the point of the arrow pointed at Zhu Yan's back heart.

Before she could think about it, she pushed him away with all her strength, but the swift sharp arrow pierced her left shoulder with a 'swipe' sound. The sharp arrow was so fierce that after she was stabbed, Backing back again and again to relieve his strength, that foot stepped on the slippery bluestone, but he couldn't stabilize his body for a while, and fell down the cliff.

Zhu Yan, who was pushed away by Xia Yuanqiu violently, will stabilize his body on the bank. When he turned his head, he saw Xia Yuanqiu's arrow fell off the cliff, and his heart hurt as if being torn apart. He roared and rushed forward, but failed. Grabbing the half of Xia Yuanqiu's clothes, without thinking too much, he jumped down resolutely, hoping to catch up with Yuan Qiu's falling body, so that he could be her company even if the result is death.
