The daughter of the emperor is beautiful and holds the power over the world

There was a dead silence in the military tent. The rage in Di Yulin's eyes seemed to want to destroy the whole world.

Si Yan looked into his eyes and replied softly, "I don't owe you anything.

"I don't owe you my life, nor do I owe you my love...

"You lost your life by yourself, and you also lost your love by yourself..."

The girl's soft and gentle voice was like a sharp knife, piercing Di Yulin's heart.

Di Yulin could hardly believe that A Yan was so indifferent to him.

As expected of the most capable man in the imperial army, his words just now had no killing power on her at all.

"Didn't you send me to the Middle East battlefield?" Di Yulin's hoarse voice was like sand cut by the wind.

"I asked you to come." Si Yan said in a gentle tone, looking at Di Yulin calmly, "But I didn't ask you not to come back."

Di Yulin sneered: "You mean to blame me for not being capable enough?"

There was a long silence in the air, so long that Di Yulin thought Si Yan had nothing to say.

"When you were on the mission, I assigned you an assistant. Unfortunately, you didn't use him..."

Di Yulin was stunned. He tried hard to recall and finally remembered someone.

The man was ordered to assist him in carrying out the mission, but he replaced him.

"What you replaced wasn't me, but my trust. When you chose not to trust me again, I also chose to give up on you. Di Yulin, all the results of your previous life were your choices."

"Ayan..."

Di Yulin choked up.

Was all this his choice?

Is it all his own fault?

Si Yan looked deeply at the man opposite him: "When you encountered someone plotting to harm me, you chose not to tell me, but to conceal it. Only now did you say that you never thought of killing me.

"When you were carrying out the mission, you chose not to trust me and instead replaced my people. Yulin, I gave you two chances..."

Di Yulin's eyes were red and his eyelashes were a little wet.

He opened his lips, but his throat was so blocked that he couldn't make a sound for a long time.

"Ayan, so you don't want me to die. You never thought of letting me go without coming back, right? You love me, right?"

"I really didn't want you to never come back, but my love for you disappeared the moment you participated in the conspiracy and concealed it from me..."

Si Yan's expression was terrifyingly calm. "No matter who is behind you, you chose to believe the enemy instead of me. This is why I no longer love you."

Di Yulin smiled bitterly: "Ayan, do you know who wants to kill you?"

Si Yan raised his eyes slightly. The girl's eyes were as bright as obsidian and as deep as the sea.

She opened her red lips slightly and said, "No matter who wants my life, it can't change your choice, nor can it change my choice..."

Di Yulin stood there in a daze, not saying a word for a long time.

His mind was full of confusion, like a tangled mess that he couldn't make sense of.

Di Yulin wanted to say the name behind him, but he was silent for a long time and finally did not speak.

"Ayan, I just want you to understand that I never intended to kill you. Believe it or not, I agreed to their conspiracy in order to protect you."

Si Yan's expression was indifferent, as indifferent as a thin mist that would dissipate at any time.

She looked calmly at the man with red eyes opposite her, without a trace of emotion in her heart.

"Ayan, you don't believe me?" Di Yulin said in silence.

"Believe it or not, it's meaningless. No matter in this life or the past, we are not of one mind, and we are not walking the same path. Di Yulin, putting aside the past life, we are enemies in this life. If you don't have enough chips to save yourself, I will really kill you."

Di Yulin looked at the woman in front of him. This was Si Yan, who would never dwell on the past and would always look forward.

No matter how much they loved each other in their previous life, she would not have the slightest bit of nostalgia...

Di Yulin nodded, and the tears in his eyes disappeared: "You won't kill me, Ayan."

"You still don't believe how cruel I am?"

"I believe you are ruthless enough. In the face of national justice, you can give up even the one you love. But I really want to know, your childhood sweetheart has lost a childhood sweetheart, will you let him lose his eldest brother?"

Di Yulin did have a bargaining chip in his hand, but Si Yan didn't expect it to be Ling Mo Ran. Brother Mo Ran was still alive.

Si Yan remained calm and looked at Di Yulin: "Who are you talking about?"

Di Yulin looked into Si Yan's eyes and said, "I said... Ling Mo Ran is still alive, and he is in my hands."

"..."

This time it was Si Yan's turn to remain silent.

Di Yulin's usual smirk returned to his face. "Ah Yan, I wonder who's more important, my life or your neighbor's big brother?"

Si Yan was silent for a while, looking at Di Yulin.

"Empty words."

These four simple words instantly broke Di Yulin's heart.

Since A Yan asked, it means he wants to save Ling Moran.

"Hahaha!" Di Yulin burst into deafening laughter. "Ah Yan, in your mind, even Ling Mo Ran is more important than me, right?"

"Brother Mo Ran is my brother, and you are just the prince of Beimang Kingdom."

Di Yulin sniffed, his face stern. "Actually, you're not doing this simply for Ling Mo Ran. You wouldn't dare kill me, Ah Yan. You know very well that if I die, my father will unleash all the might of the nation to destroy Da Xuan. And Da Xuan, having just undergone a purge, simply can't withstand a thundering blow from the Beimang Nation."

"Isn't this the reason why you are so confident?" Si Yan smiled.

"Di Yulin, you can't die, but you can get a lot in return."

Di Yulin narrowed his eyes: "What does Ah Yan want to exchange me for?"

"Send someone back to tell your great father that he will give you ten border cities of Beimang Kingdom and my brother Ling Moran in exchange for your life. Otherwise, he will see your corpse."

As Si Yan finished speaking, he shouted outside, "Yun Li."

"Master." Yun Li lifted the curtain and walked in.

Si Yan's voice was as cold as ice: "All your secret guards, keep a close eye on the Crown Prince of Beimang. If he escapes, bring him back with your head."

"Yes." Yun Li accepted the order and took Di Yulin away.

This was the first time the master was so serious and asked them to carry out a task.

Yun Li immediately summoned the twelve hidden guards who followed him, and led the rest of the hidden guards in Prince Yan's Mansion to stare at Di Yulin as if he were staring at the ball of his eye.

The big tent fell silent. Si Yan raised his hand and pressed his slightly aching chest.

She leaned lightly on the cushion, too many memories and past events flashing through her mind. Di Yulin was destined to be a wound in her heart.

This wound was once deep, and it had healed before, but now it felt like it was being torn open again, and the wound ached slightly...

"Ayan..."

A soft and familiar voice sounded outside the tent. Si Yan raised his eyes to look at the figure outside the tent and responded in a hoarse voice, "Come in."
