Lock Xin

The wind blew the branches and made a rustling sound, and a large piece of bright red petals fell to the ground and floated on the river, as if the bridgehead was dyed red, and the blood red color lasted for a long time.And the bird that landed on the branch wailed a few times and flew to the distance.

Standing in front of the window was a pale blue figure, with waterfall-like long hair hanging behind her, her clear face became fairer under the sun, her nose was small and delicate, her lips were red and attractive.There is some melancholy between the delicate eyebrows and eyes, and the eyes that are like autumn water are extremely deep.

Zi Xin raised her hand to push open the window sash, and her sleeves slowly slid down her white wrist. The hand that rested slightly by the window had slender and delicate knuckles with a faint layer of calluses on the inner wall, and the nails were round and shiny.

The door of the room was pushed open softly, and the pretty little palace maid in pink clothes bowed her head and walked to Zi Xin's side, "Prince, the time has come, the carriage has been waiting outside for a long time."

"I see, you go down first." Zi Xin turned around and walked around the maid to the door behind him. The breeze caressed his face, and the bangs on his forehead slid down, covering his beautiful eyebrows.

A pale yellow figure quickly ran towards Zi Xin, he looked at the handsome young man in front of him, and was slightly taken aback, "Xiao Jin, why are you here?"

"Brother is leaving soon, why can't I come to see you off." Xiao Jin clenched her fists tightly, her expression a little excited.If he hadn't heard what the maids around him were talking about today, maybe he wouldn't have seen his eldest brother for the last time.

Zi Xin frowned, he was afraid that Xiao Jin would react strongly after knowing this, so he forbade all the palace people to confide a word, unexpectedly, Xiao Jin still found out.

"Is it true that elder brother married to the Huns to marry?" Xiao Jin looked at Zixin's dim eyes, he didn't believe that, as the eldest son of the emperor, why should he go to the Huns to marry.

Xiao Jin didn't hear Zi Xin's response for a long time, and his heart gradually became a little desperate, "Why?" He held Zi Xin's sleeve firmly, "Is it because the father doesn't have a princess, then the father can be the king's daughter, why? Brother must go." What a disgrace for a man to be married as the princess of the Xiongnu.

"Xiao Jin, don't worry about this matter." Zi Xin held Xiao Jin's hand, looking at his younger brother's young face, his heart was filled with bitterness and he couldn't speak.

"It may be too late for me to beg my father now." Xiao Jin shook off Zi Xin's hand and ran out as hard as he could. His father loved him very much since he was a child, and he would definitely agree to his entreaty.

"Xiao Jin, come back." Zi Xin jumped to the door to stop Xiao Jin, and he hugged Xiao Jin tightly in his arms.

"Brother, let go. If it is too late, the emperor's order will not be changed." Xiao Jin tried hard to break free from Kai Zixin's restraint. His eldest brother is the eldest son, and he would never let his elder brother serve a man like a woman.

"I begged my father to marry the Xiongnu." Zixin said emphatically that although his father treated him very coldly, he would never force his son to marry a man.

His actions have already made his father completely lose hope in him. Zi Xin still remembers the oath his father ordered him to swear. This is his own decision. After stepping out of the land of Dachu, he will never regret it no matter what.

Xiao Jin felt as if he had received a blow to the head, and he slowly lowered his hand, "Why did the elder brother do this?" He couldn't remember how the elder brother met Yeluning, and why the elder brother made such a sacrifice.

"Xiao Jin, don't ask any more questions." Zi Xin raised his hand to caress Xiao Jin's shoulders. Everything he did was for Xiao Jin. No matter how Xiao Jin looked at him in the future, he would never have any regrets.

"After elder brother leaves, you must take good care of yourself." Zi Xin took off the pendant around her neck and put it in Xiao Jin's palm.

The darkness in the harem is full of intrigue and intrigue. He used to be able to protect his younger brother in his arms, but now that he is gone, Xiao Jin can only face all this alone.As Xiao Jingui is the crown prince, it will be even more difficult in the palace in the future, and it will be hard to guard against scheming from the dark.

Zi Xin's eyes were a little wet, he watched the little boy who used to be with him grow up gradually, his stature was as tall as his, and his face became more handsome and stern.He really didn't want to leave Xiao Jin alone to deal with the battle in the harem, but if he didn't leave, Xiao Jin's life might be in danger

"Okay, big brother, don't worry." Xiao Jin clenched the pendant in his hand and nodded heavily. He would always remember all the sacrifices his brother made for Da Chu.

Zi Xin stretched out her arms to hug her younger brother's shoulders, Xiao Jin's mother and concubine died early, and no one in the harem really cared for Xiao Jin, how could he rest assured.

The maid standing outside the door looked up at the sky, and couldn't help but walk in, "Prince, it's getting late."

Zi Xin waved his hands, and he lowered his head and whispered in Xiao Jin's ear, "Aunt Bi has been with me for many years, you can listen to her."

Zixin turned around and walked towards the door. If he went to the Huns, he might never have the chance to return to Dachu in this life.

"Brother, when I take over the throne, I will definitely defeat the Huns and welcome you back in person." Xiao Jin grabbed Zixin's sleeves, her eyes were extremely firm, as long as the Huns are defeated severely, there will be no more relations between the two countries. There are unequal treaties.

But now that he is still young, his father is fatuous and trusts traitors, and he is unable to fight the Huns at all. He can't even protect his eldest brother who loves him the most.

"Brother must wait for me." Xiao Jin firmly held Zixin's hand. He heard that Yeluning was very cruel, so he didn't know how his elder brother would be treated when he came to the Huns, but he would know all the injustices suffered by his elder brother in the future I paid back in every possible way.

"Okay." Zi Xin nodded, he will wait until the moment when Xiao Jin takes over the throne, as long as he sees that Xiao Jin is well, he will be at ease.As for the humiliated prince, it is better to stay in another place forever.

"Brother, be careful on the road." Xiao Jin watched Zi Xin's thin back gradually go away, he clenched his fists hard, he must get that seat, and protect the people around him from any harm.

Zi Xin walked to the carriage in the distance, and after the palace servants at the side opened the curtain, he stepped into the side of the carriage, and the carriage slowly drove on the flat road.

Zixin looked at a dark green figure sitting in the corner of the carriage, and saw that person's handsome face sideways, with a trace of surprise in his eyes, he opened his mouth and shouted, "Stop."

Fortunately, he found it in time, and the carriage hadn't gone far.Wang Mo has been with Zi Xin for many years, and the two have a very deep relationship. It is extremely difficult and dangerous to go to the Huns, how could Zi Xin be willing to let the attendant who gave his life to save him go with him in the danger.

"Why did you follow me? Didn't I tell you to leave the palace?" Zi Xin asked with open mouth.

"Your Highness, please tell your subordinates what mistake you made to punish you so severely." Wang Mo pushed back the hair that covered his face. He wanted to hide it from the sky, but he didn't expect to be discovered by the eldest prince so soon.He knew that His Highness was worried about his safety, but as a shadow, he would follow the prince's side all his life, and if he made a serious mistake, he would not be allowed to leave.

"It's not your fault. It's my order to let you go, and you must obey it." Zi Xin said forcefully, it's better for him to be alone, but with one more person by his side, he has more worries.

"What if my subordinate refuses." Wang Mo knelt on the ground. His Highness treated him well, so he would not abandon His Highness's safety.

Zixin's face was a little angry, he grabbed Wang Mo's clothes and tried to throw him out of the carriage, he saw a deep scar on Wang Mo's fair skin under his open neckline, and paused.

"If Your Highness throws your subordinates out, and your subordinates will return to the palace without face, you can kill yourself halfway." Wang Mo took out a small dagger from his sleeve, and slowly pressed it against his chest.

"You." Zi Xin forcefully put down his hand, he didn't know when Wang Mo learned this kind of obscene means.

"If you stay, there will be no chance of regretting it." Zi Xin looked at Wang Mo's face. Wang Mo was still very young, and there was no chance of returning once they stepped out. They would definitely die in another country.

"This subordinate is willing to follow His Highness's side without any regrets." Wang Mo said firmly. He lost his parents since he was a child, and he regarded His Highness, the only one who cared about him, as a relative. Now His Highness stayed alone in the Xiongnu, and he How can you rest assured, although his meager strength can't do much, but at least he can still save His Highness's life.

"Get up." Zi Xin raised her hand to support Wang Mo, with a hint of helplessness on her face.

Zi Xin raised his hands and clapped his hands to signal the carriage to move forward. He looked at Wang Mo and opened his mouth to ask, "Do you want to ask me why I wanted to go to the Huns on my own initiative?"

Perhaps his behavior is ridiculous in the eyes of the world, and it cannot be tolerated by the royal family.There was a trace of pain in Zi Xin's eyes. He was not only the eldest son of Da Chu, but also Xiao Jin's elder brother. He was willing to do everything for his younger brother, even if it was to bow down to a man.

Wang Mo shook his head, "Your Highness also has your reasons for doing this, and this subordinate can understand your thoughts." He couldn't save His Highness from the road to marriage, and he didn't want to personally uncover the scars in His Highness's heart.But Wang Mo didn't know what method Yeluning used to get His Highness to marry him willingly.

Zi Xin looked out of the window in the distance, and there was a trace of sadness in his eyes, he didn't need anyone to understand him, as long as Xiao Jin could be safe and sound.

"Your Highness, you don't have to worry so much. Yeluning has countless beauties around him, and he will never really do anything to you. As long as we stay in the Xiongnu for a few years, we can return to Dachu when the second prince ascends the throne." Wang Mo comforted, but The second prince is very young, and the affairs in the palace are secretive and changeable, how could he be able to become king so easily after a few years.Besides, in the harem of the Huns, is it easy to endure for a few years?

Zixin smiled wryly all his life, what would Yeluning do to him?Yeluning forced him to agree to the marriage just to humiliate him, and after stepping into the Huns, I am afraid it will get worse.Forget it, anyway, he never thought that he would be able to return to Dachu.

"Your Highness, you didn't sleep last night, and now the journey is far away, you should rest for a while." Looking at Zi Xin's pale complexion, Wang Mo didn't know what His Highness was feeling right now.

Zi Xin was worried that Wang Mo had been worrying about him, so she nodded and leaned on Wang Mo's shoulder.
