Quick Wear: After the strategy was successful, she died again

In the deep winter of this year, heavy snow has been falling continuously.

Qin Qianhong had been standing in front of the cave for a long time when he heard from the people who were exploring outside that Gu Sui Nuan had blocked the way down the mountain.

"I see."

Qin Qianhong responded listlessly and waved the man away, as if he had accepted his fate.

The killing of those civilians was such a huge shock to Qin Qianhong that he began to realize it belatedly and recalled what Gu Sui Nuan had said to him.

Gu Sui Nuan had always been opposed to Qin Qianhong's habit of punishing servants at every turn, especially executing those servants who made mistakes with just a few words.

In fact, Gu Sui Nuan used to like to talk to Qin Qianhong about how to be a king. She said that a king should not take human lives lightly and kill innocent people indiscriminately. Brutal rule will always lead to resistance. Only by treating the people well can one get rewards.

At that time, Qin Qianhong retorted disdainfully that there was a huge difference between the emperor and his subjects, so they should be afraid of him and submit to him. And they still wanted him to treat those untouchables well?

Every time this happened, Gu Sui Nuan would always glare at him. This was one of the few times when Gu Sui Nuan could express anger.

"But if you do this, no one will truly support you. And killing will not bring about submission. Aren't you afraid that one day you will kill someone you shouldn't kill?"

"Once you die, you cannot be resurrected. When that time comes, it will be too late for you to regret."

At that time, Qin Qianhong did not listen to her, thinking that she was just a woman's opinion, but now Qin Qianhong could not help but break out in a cold sweat.

"You killed my father, I will kill you!"

In the dream, the lingering figure appeared again and again. Full of hatred, blood-stained, thinking that Qin Qianhong was a kind-hearted big brother.

At the end of the dream, he still swung the knife, the tip of the knife was stained with blood, and corpses were everywhere, all of them were innocent civilians.

Qin Qianhong turned around and saw Gu Sui Nuan standing there witnessing everything. She said coldly:

"Come on, kill him."

Qin Qianhong, who was haunted by nightmares, gradually felt fear rising in his heart.

He suddenly became afraid.

He didn't want to kill those people, as Gu Sui Nuan had saved them with great difficulty.

He didn't want to kill the little girl, Qin Qianhong just didn't recognize them.

Qin Qianhong did this not because he wanted to stand against Gu Sui Nuan. He did not want to be an enemy of Gu Sui Nuan, and did not want to fight to the death with Gu Sui Nuan.

If even Gu Sui Nuan hates him, then the only person in the world who cares about Qin Qianhong is gone.

But...what was done was done, the dead could not be brought back to life, and no matter how much he regretted, he could not make up for it.

.

Qin Qianhong was awakened by the cold wind. He fell asleep for some reason and only woke up when the coldness invaded him.

Soon he felt a cold blade against his neck.

Qin Qianhong opened his eyes and saw that there were only a few of his men left. They were now blocked at the edge of the cliff by the elite troops led by Gu Sui Nuan.

And Qin Qianhong's personal bodyguard was holding a sword against Qin Qianhong's neck at this moment.

Qin Qianhong tried to move and found that he was tied up.

"Miss Gu, don't come over here again! Believe it or not, I will kill him right now!"

The scene in front of him was really weird. Qin Qianhong's guards actually tied Qin Qianhong up to threaten Gu Sui Nuan.

"Kill if you want." Gu Sui Nuan looked calm, not threatened at all. She noticed that Qin Qianhong had woken up, but she did not stop her cold words. "Killing someone means paying with your life. Even if you don't kill him, I will do it myself."

Seeing that Gu Sui Nuan was unmoved, the guard became a little anxious.

"Miss Gu, I was the one who deliberately taught Qin Qianhong to avoid you. I was the one who fueled the flames for the common people to know about Qin Qianhong's army. Qin Qianhong was just used by our city lord."

"Can you really bear to watch your cousin die like this?"

The guard's words sounded like he was trying to whitewash Qin Qianhong, but in fact he just wanted to make Qin Qianhong more valuable as a bargaining chip in Gu Sui Nuan's eyes.

"I said, if you want to kill me, then go ahead. People always have to pay the price for the wrong things they have done."

The guard had never seen Gu Sui Nuan so stubborn. He couldn't help but increase the strength in his hand, and the sword blade drew a bloody mark on Qin Qianhong's neck.

Gu Sui Nuan still had no reaction. Even Qin Qianhong, the person involved, did not frown, as if he did not feel any pain.

"He instigated me to avoid you, but those people stood up to help you trap me, a bad guy who intended to rebel. It's true that I was used, and it's also true that I killed people."

Qin Qianhong was still very stubborn. At this moment, speaking would only confirm his guilt.

"Qin Qianhong, do you know that you have seen those people before?"

Hearing Qin Qianhong's voice, Gu Suinuan looked at him deeply.

"You read their names and handed them warm clothes. When you ordered them to be killed, did you know that they were just innocent people? Or did you think they were not innocent because they were blocking your way?"

Qin Qianhong felt a sour taste in his throat. Any words of defense seemed to lose their weight in the face of innocent lives.

"They were right to block my way, they were not wrong."

Qin Qianhong went to Bianjing with the intention of fighting his way out and becoming the king. If they hadn't stopped him, other people would have been killed by Qin Qianhong.

Qin Qianhong was just childishly trying to prove to Gu Sui Nuan, to his grandfather and to those who looked down on him, why didn't they choose him? Why did they all think he was not suitable for the throne? Obviously, he could have ascended to that position.

As it turned out, he was indeed not suitable for that position. All of them were right, except Qin Qianhong. Just because of his indignation, he was not only used, but also killed those innocent people.

"Gu Sui Nuan, I know I was wrong, I... regret it."

Qin Qianhong looked at Gu Sui Nuan and said his final goodbye in his heart. He knew that Gu Sui Nuan was still a little reluctant, otherwise she would have done it long ago.

Qin Qianhong simply helped her and didn't let her feel so embarrassed.

The tied-up Qin Qianhong, with his tall stature, slammed into the guard who was threatening him. Because of Qin Qianhong's action, the sword blade pierced deeply into Qin Qianhong's throat, and the guard, together with Qin Qianhong, was knocked off the dark cliff.

The remaining defeated soldiers were instantly at a loss when they saw this sudden change, and were quickly subdued by Gu Suinuan.

Gu Sui Nuan came to the edge of the cliff. There were only gusts of cold wind blowing from the dark cliff, and Qin Qianhong's figure had long been swallowed up.

Gu Sui Nuan never expected that Qin Qianhong, who never took human life seriously, would one day wake up.

It’s a pity that he woke up too late, and this is the only ending left.

Sighs drift away with the wind, without enough time to say goodbye.

"Goodbye, cousin."
