Before the house is confiscated, the enemy's warehouse is emptied and exiled

At this moment, the huge tent was silent, with Xiao Heng sitting alone at the table.

He gently held up his cheek with his left hand, while his right hand kept pouring wine into his mouth.

In front of him, several empty wine jugs lay in a mess, as if telling the sorrow in the owner's heart.

Xiao Heng's originally handsome face has now become indifferent, but there is endless sadness hidden in his eyes.

Shen Qingge, who was standing outside the tent, saw this scene through the gap and his heart trembled violently.

It turned out that just as she expected, Xiao Heng was alone and sad.

It seems that the death of Emperor Xiaoren caused him great harm.

So, Shen Qingge, who was worried that something might happen to Xiao Heng, teleported in front of him in the blink of an eye and snatched the wine jug from his hand.

But Xiao Heng's reaction was very dull.

He slowly raised his head, and when he saw that the person in front of him was Shen Qingge, he neither got angry nor spoke a word. He just silently stretched out his hand and tried to take the wine jug back from Shen Qingge.

The two men were in a stalemate, fighting back and forth, when suddenly there was a crisp "bang" sound and the wine jug fell to the ground.

In an instant, ceramic fragments flew everywhere and wine flowed everywhere.

Xiao Heng looked at the debris all over the floor and the wine spreading everywhere, and finally had some reaction.

He raised his voice, his lips trembling slightly:

"I just want to drink some wine, what's wrong with that?

Could it be that you are also going to persuade me earnestly like Yun Yi to stop drinking?"

After saying that, Xiao Heng no longer paid attention to Shen Qingge. He turned around and continued to reach out to feel for the empty wine jugs on the table.

Shen Qingge looked at the somewhat decadent Xiao Heng in front of him, but did not get angry. Instead, a wave of sadness and resonance welled up in his heart.

She recalled the heart-wrenching pain she had experienced when she was just reborn, and she could empathize with Xiao Heng's experience.

Therefore, she did not try to persuade him or argue fiercely with Xiao Heng like others did. Instead, she quietly walked to his side and sat down, and said softly in a gentle tone:

"Your Highness, please forgive my frankness. I do not intend to stop you from drinking. If this cup can truly alleviate the pain deep within you, then I will naturally agree.

Unfortunately, the reality is often not so - as the saying goes, 'it's not the wine that makes you drunk, it's the people themselves', right now you are just deeply trapped in your own emotions and can't extricate yourself.

If your Highness does not mind, I would like to tell you a little story, hoping it can help you solve some of your problems."

After saying that, Shen Qingge didn't even care whether Xiao Heng responded or not, and just started to tell her story.

"Once there was an innocent and carefree little girl who was born into a wealthy and warm family.

The parents in the family respect each other and love each other very much; the brothers and sisters are also friendly and respectful to each other and have a harmonious relationship.

Because of this, the little girl has been pampered and protected since she was a child, and developed a spoiled, willful and domineering character.

However, the good times did not last long. As she grew older, the girl inevitably fell in love.

It's a pity that she was so young and inexperienced that she made a mistake and gave her heart to that heartless man.

In the end, her entire family was killed by that unfaithful man, and even their home, where they had once lived and worked in peace and contentment, was destroyed overnight.

And what about this little girl? After she finally learned the heartbreaking and cruel truth, she was also killed by that heartless man, and her blood was stained on the spot.

Hearing this, Xiao Heng, who was originally immersed in sadness, slowly raised his head and stared at her quietly.

Lost in memories, Shen Qingge sighed softly and continued:

“I thought the story ended here, and that this little girl would experience endless regret and torture in reincarnation!

But who knew that God would give her another chance. She was reborn, but everything was not so perfect.

She was reborn after her home was destroyed. Her father and brother were nowhere to be found, and the rest of her family was displaced.

The immense pain once again struck her. Tell me, with the memories of her past life, wouldn't she be sad? Wouldn't she be filled with hatred?"

A series of question marks left Xiao Heng speechless.

"She's cruel, she complains! But can this solve the problem? Can it stop that heartless person from hunting down her family?

Obviously not!

So, she figured it out. The past is gone, but the future can also be pursued!

She must grow up quickly, become strong, and overcome all difficulties. She wants to lead the rest of her family and live a good life!"

"But, I have no family left!" Xiao Heng answered dejectedly, his eyes filled with loneliness.

"No, you do. You have your people, you have your responsibilities, and you yourself!

I believe that the spirit of the late emperor in heaven would not want to see you so decadent, but would like to see you brave and strong enough!

He planned it all out to get you out there and give you a chance to survive. He didn't do that to leave you alone drinking, but to have you carry his hope with you and live on!"

Shen Qingge's voice was very soft, but every word she spoke was powerful and struck Xiao Heng's heart hard.

Xiao Heng couldn't help but be moved. He suspected that what Shen Qingge was describing was her personal experience.

Although it sounds absurd and bizarre, she is willing to open up her old wounds and use that painful past to inspire him to pick himself up again.

This kind of courage and selflessness is extremely rare and precious in itself.

In comparison, his fragility at this moment seemed so vulnerable, which made him feel extremely ashamed.

However, even though everything Shen Qingge said made sense, there was still an insurmountable gap in his heart.

He knew that his father's death was not as simple as it seemed. And the murderer who killed his father was his own brother.

Once upon a time, his third brother put him to death time and time again, but he could endure it.

But now, his third brother had dared to kill his father and usurp the throne. How could he accept such unfilial and unkind behavior? How could he easily let it go?

Shen Qingge seemed to have seen through his inner thoughts and slowly said:

"Not everyone deserves the title of 'relative'. Some people are born with evil in their blood, wicked to the core, and don't even deserve to be called human beings!

Since you are full of resentment, you should calm down as soon as possible and make yourself stronger.

Otherwise, simply dwelling on anger and resentment is nothing but futile rage, like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.

From now on, he is no longer your brother, but your mortal enemy!"

This time, Xiao Heng was completely stunned.

Seeing this, Shen Qingge decided to strike while the iron was hot. She pulled Xiao Heng up with one hand and said:

"Your Highness, if you still can't figure it out, then I'll take you out for some fresh air. Maybe that will help you clear your mind a little!"
