All the money was emptied on the way to exile, and there was too much money to spend

Xie Lin was heartbroken.

His eyes were filled with sadness and murderous intent.

A slender white palm was spread out in front of him, with two peanut candies placed in the palm.

"Eat something sweet, and you won't feel so bitter inside."

This actually sounds a bit unrealistic, but Xie Lin inexplicably believed it.

He looked at his palm spread out in front of him, which was so white without a single callus.

This is clearly inconsistent with her skills.

Xie Lin retracted his gaze: "You keep it, I don't like sweet food."

"Ok?"

Xia Chan reached out and pulled Xie Lin's hand over and put the candy in his hand.

"Although I don't like eating it, I'm going to change it now."

Xie Lin was stunned.

There was some surprise in his eyes.

Xia Chan withdrew her hand and curled her lips.

"I go to sleep."

As she spoke, she closed her eyes and didn't intend to continue talking to Xie Lin.

Xie Lin pursed his lips and looked at Xia Chan's peaceful face. He squeezed his hands and took the candy back.

He leaned back slightly and looked up at the dark night sky above his head.

Once in Chang'an City, he rode his horse and whipped the whip to see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day, and strangled hundreds of enemy bandits by himself. Now he has become a remnant of the rebels...

From being admired by everyone and loved by the emperor, he has now become a prisoner. He has no idea where tomorrow and his future will lie.

But he knew that his family would never rebel!

.........

In the middle of the night, when everyone was fast asleep, a dark shadow quietly moved towards the stable in the post station.

Xie Lin, who was not asleep, opened his eyes slightly.

The summer cicada beside him also moved.

Xie Lin looked at her, then quietly got up and went to the stable.

Just a few minutes after he left, Xia Chan took a nap and Xie Lin came back.

His scent was clean, without a trace of blood.

The summer cicada, which had originally closed its eyes, opened its eyelids slightly.

"Not killed?"

The sound of the summer cicadas is somewhat lazy.

Xie Lin didn't expect her to ask this, so he remained silent.

He did not kill the man who wanted to report the news. He just asked him what he was going to do and then knocked him unconscious.

Now that Xia Chan asked this, Xie Lin had nothing to hide.

He leaned back and answered quietly, "He was just delivering a message."

"Hmm? If he goes to report the news, we will be in danger."

"No, I should say you are in danger."

Xia Chan wasn't really worried about himself.

She can escape anyway.

But Xie Lin can't do that, because he is the only adult male in the Xie family.

His existence posed a huge threat to the emperor and the royal family.

So they will definitely get rid of him.

In this situation, it is not popular to be soft-hearted.

His smartest thing to do is to kill gods and Buddhas, so that he can get revenge and carve out a way to survive.

To gain a glimmer of hope for the Xie family.

In other words, this is the simplest and most violent way to make a living for the Xie family.

Xie Lin also knew.

But the other party was not an unforgivable criminal, nor was he a person who would commit such heinous crimes as arson, murder, robbery and rape in front of him, so he still couldn't bring himself to take his life.

Xia Chan's eyes were originally slightly open, but after hearing Xie Lin's words, they finally opened fully.

"Not bad. Even though he is imprisoned, he still maintains a reverent heart towards life."

The slightly playful words made Xie Lin realize that she was testing him before?

"you……"

"We are husband and wife now, so naturally I don't want the man I marry to be someone who kills innocent people indiscriminately."

Xia Chan agrees with the view that if a person is not ruthless, he cannot stand firm.

But killing is addictive. If Xie Lin wants to unify the world and climb to a high position in the future, he cannot develop the habit of killing people without hesitation.

Otherwise, even if you reach a high position, you will be criticized and lose your reputation.

For Xie Lin, a bad reputation is not a good thing.

Summer cicadas think far ahead.

Since I can't sleep anyway, I might as well ask him now what his plans for the future are.

"after?"

Xie Lin took a deep breath and said, "I will accompany my grandmother and mother to Lingnan, and then find an opportunity to go to the border to confirm the matter of my father and brother."

He didn't doubt Xia Chan.

So he will not hide his future plans.

Xia Chan chuckled.

"Do you think that if the people in Chang'an knew that you were alive, they would let you go to Lingnan like this?"

"Lingnan is a place with high mountains and long rivers. It is more than a thousand miles away from Chang'an City. There are many mountains and dense forests over there. If you really go there, wouldn't it be like letting a tiger go back to the mountains and a bird back to the forest?"

"I know."

"Hmm? So is there any solution?"

Xia Chan asked, supporting his cheek with one hand.

Xie Lin looked at her.

His eyes met hers.

In the darkness, he could clearly see her beautiful, delicate face with a smile.

Xie Lin's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He quickly averted his gaze.

No longer meeting her gaze.

"Miss Xia...Miss Xia..."

Xie Lin opened his mouth, said three words, took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and finished what he was going to say.

"I will never forget your great kindness to our Xie family!"

When he said this, he paused for a moment and seemed unable to continue.

But thinking about their family's current situation and Xia Chan's situation, he continued: "The person I was originally engaged to should have been Xia Yuanan..."

"Oh!"

Xia Chan nodded seriously.

She hugged her knees with her hands, rested her head on them, and looked sideways at the man next to her.

Xie Lin was a little speechless.

The words I had thought of went around in my mouth several times, but I couldn't get them out.

"Keep talking."

Xia Chan smiled and asked Xie Lin to continue.

"Are you trying to say that I had nothing to do with your family and was harmed by someone, so you're trying to persuade me to leave?"

"Whether I leave to find the Crown Prince or someone else, I will definitely be able to live a stable life? Instead of following you, wandering around and living in fear of death?"

This is exactly what Xie Lin wanted to say.

He couldn't say it.

But summer cicada can say it very easily and freely.

This made Xie Lin feel a little embarrassed.

"Miss Xia... After all, this is the current situation of my family. It's really not worth your worry..."

In other words, they are not qualified to make Xia Chan worry.

Don’t want to delay the summer cicadas.

When Xie Lin said this, the other members of the Xie family were still sleeping, and sleeping very soundly.

After a tiring day of traveling, many people have a very good sleep quality at night.

It's the kind that can't be shaken.

Xia Chan curled her lips, but was not angry.

After all, people with such good character were the ones she felt sorry for when she first read the book.

If Xie Lin showed her all kinds of care and comfort as soon as he woke up, Xia Chan would definitely be disgusted.

She has always believed that feelings are cultivated.

Xie Lin had just woken up. Unlike the other members of the Xie family, she had not been with him for a few days and had developed feelings for him after going through so many hardships.

Under such circumstances, he chose not to implicate himself and wanted to clear himself from the matter, which was indeed a very touching act.

Xia Chan's lips revealed two shallow dimples: "But there are so many people watching here, if I want to leave, how can I leave?"
