"So from the beginning you approached me just to gain the power behind me to help you rise to power, right?" I asked him frustrated.
"Yes."
"Then everything you did to me was a lie?"
"Yes."
I didn't expect him to admit it so quickly. For a moment, I hoped he could tell me that everything he did for me was sincere, but I was wrong. In our "love", there was only the intertwining of power, and in his heart, there was only the supreme emperor's seat.
It was me who never saw through him, it was my fault...
After getting his answer, I looked at him and laughed, then lifted up my skirt and ran out of the room...
I returned to the general's house and begged my brother over and over again, telling him that I didn't want to marry Xia Yingsi. But the situation was a foregone conclusion and my brother couldn't solve the situation. That was the royal family. Who dared to be an enemy? After my brother, I was not the only one, but also the entire Qin family...
I know I can't change anything, I accept fate and this game of thrones...
A month later, a fire broke out in my dormitory, and everything inside was burnt. In the raging fire, I threw the hairpin he gave me into it, as if my emotions were burned together in the fire.
Ning Qingjin took advantage of the chaos and took me out of Prince Ying'an's Mansion. Watching the Xia Jing City Gate slowly become smaller, a tear slipped down my face...
In Qinhuai City, I listened to the literati's story. The book mentioned that the most outstanding prince of the Xia Kingdom, King Ying'an, gave up his throne and disappeared from the world...
After all, he still hasn't sat on the throne he longed for.
People's discussion came to my ears, "I heard that King Ying'an once had a wife, but a fire broke out for some reason, and Princess Ying'an died in the fire. From then on, King Ying'an stopped fighting, gave up the throne of the emperor, and paid no attention to worldly affairs."
I chuckled, how could he give up the throne so easily available to him just because of a wife? It's really ridiculous.
I stood up and was about to leave. When I turned around, I met the cold eyes of someone I knew but didn't want to see again...

That day, in the raging fire, he watched the dormitory burn down bit by bit, and the girl's face was lingering in his mind. At this moment, he realized that the pain of loss was so unforgettable. He wanted to rush in several times to save the girl in his heart, but he was stopped all the time.
He fell to his knees weakly and cried bitterly...
"Xia Yingsi, brother will always help you. You can do what you want to do. Just think that I died in the fire. I will never see you again..."
