Hearing what the man said, Xiaohong cried and shouted, turning around to look at Ling'er.
"Let's go, Xiaohong, go quickly, the fire will be lit soon, go quickly, go, leave me alone,"
Seeing that someone was already walking towards the firewood pile with a lit torch, Ling'er spoke to her nervously, looking at her with crying eyes and begging. But the little girl just lay in front of her, crying and unwilling to leave.
"Take her away, take her away, hurry up."
The torch had been placed on the shelf where the firewood was placed. The man saw that Xiao Hong was still on the stage. He ordered people to shout, and soon several guards came over and dragged her down, ignoring her cries and turning around. Looking at Xiao Hong,
As the blush subsided, a relieved and relaxed smile appeared in Ling'er's eyes.
She died unshakable because she got the most precious love in the world. She also got the love from the most charming man in the world. Really, she was satisfied.
As soon as Xiao Hong got down, the spot was ignited. Instantly, the flame began to slowly spread from the firewood...
Seeing the fiery red flame gradually ignited, the burning firewood made a loud noise. It spread upward and extended along the support below. Xiao Hong, who was pulled by the guard in the crowd, struggled and screamed as the guard pulled her desperately.
The thick smoke also rose, and Ling'er was just tied there in the middle of the flames, calmly waiting for death to come.
The flames were so big that Ling'er's skin all over her body ached. The thick smoke in front of her eyes made it impossible to see the expressions and reactions of the people outside. But a little bit, Xiao Hong's voice outside was heard in the chaotic crowd.
It's still so clear.
It seems that when I came here, my life was really not in vain. At least they would worry about themselves and cry for their own deaths. More importantly, Xueer and the others came to save her. It seems that her life is like this, because she is still
No voice training.
Her eyes were so thick with smoke that she couldn't open them at all. Her eyes were dry but she kept shedding tears. It could be said that they were tears of gratitude and relief.
She just left like this, leaving Chen Feng. She didn't regret it, really.
"Chen Feng, I love you, Ling'er loves you so much. You will definitely be fine. As long as I go away, you will not be in danger, and of course the whole kingdom will be peaceful, Chen Feng,"
She closed her eyes and thought silently in her heart. She felt the heat getting closer and closer to her. She could even hear the "hissing" sound of her hair being burned. But her heart was empty, so she let her take him with her.
Let your love for her leave like this. At least it will be much better than what happened to the women who traveled through time in the novels.
She always left with his love and affection, didn't she? God was really kind to her, giving her such a good man. She looked like she was going to die at any time, but she never thought about it.
There was a sudden noise among the noisy crowd outside.
"Show mercy,"
With a scolding, everyone separated. A few royal guards came over first. Behind them, Xue'er, who looked haggard, weak, pale and nervous, was supported by a girl.
"Meet the princess," everyone present saw her arrival and hurriedly bowed respectfully to greet her.
"Go, let them turn off the flames quickly. I have the Holy Order at my disposal, and the prison officer will receive the order."
Although she was weak and out of breath as she walked, Xue'er saw the high platform above in the fire. The flames under the high platform were already burning and she was almost approaching the woman in the middle. She nervously turned around and gave orders to a guard with a knife beside her, and strode towards the prison on one side.
The decree was announced in front of the execution platform.
As she said that, she started reading the edict on the spot.
"It's a blessing from heaven, Wang Shangzhao said..."
The content inside was obviously the same idea that she and Old Uncle Wang had at that time. The two fathers and daughters had discussed it, and the old man hurried to the front hall to discuss it with the officials. Of course, it was to save Chen Feng, and he would not hesitate to make the final struggle.
It was also to prevent them from being blamed if Ling'er was killed and Chen Feng woke up.
At the same time, they also followed Shui as a favor. If she couldn't do it, they would kill her, and there was an imperial decree and everyone testified.
"Put out the fire quickly, put out the fire quickly, quickly,"
As soon as the prison officer heard the imperial edict, he respectfully took it from Xue'er's hand. He was sure that it was the decree that all the elders had discussed together. He panicked and shouted orders to the people around him. These people rushed to the fire.
Of course, the people around him were also dispersed one after another.
"Princess, it's great that you are finally here. But Miss, she,"
After reading the imperial edict and seeing the people carrying water to put out the fire, Xiao Hong believed the facts in front of her. But she saw the woman on the high platform, above the fire, not obscured by the thick black smoke.
She didn't hear Ling'er's screams at all, not even a cough. She was really worried, fearing that Ling'er had already encountered misfortune.
"Don't worry, keep the hairpin on her body. I believe, I believe she will be fine. Hurry up, go back and find more people to put out the fire. You guys, put out the fire quickly, just in case.
What's wrong with Miss Long? Humph, be careful when my brother Wang wakes up and all of you will be buried with him."
Seeing that the girl was still anxious, Chen Xueer was calm. People like them couldn't see it, but she could clearly see the clarity inside. The fire didn't burn Ling'er, but it was strange that she didn't say anything. At that time, she also felt in her heart
A bad premonition arose, but she quickly shook her head to shake away the discomfort.
While he was comforting her, he was actually saying it to himself. He turned around and shouted at the women, regardless of his own weakness and nervousness, asking them to put out the fire quickly.
The fire was finally put out. Everyone stepped forward to untie Ling'er. At that time, they brought him to Chen Xue'er, who had already walked to the stage.
"You guys, get out of the way and make some room. Sister Ling, wake up, wake up, Sister Ling,"
Xue'er was shocked when she saw Ling'er, who was being supported by several people and was limp. Regardless of the pain on her body, she stepped forward to help her and let her lean in front of her. At the same time, she scolded those around her coldly.
.
Looking at Ling'er in his arms, he was unconscious, his face and hands were covered with dust and unkempt hair. He was shaking nervously and shouting. Those people could only step out of the way to let them in the middle.
"I, what's wrong with me? Xue'er, am I not dead? This is..."
On the pale and bloodless face, the big, clear eyes that had been clear for a long time finally opened. They looked at the people around them with a confused expression. When it became clear that it was Chen Xue in front of them, Ling'er asked her in disbelief. When
When he saw the obvious dust and soot on the faces of many people fighting fires, he finally confirmed that he was not dead yet. He looked at her in disbelief and asked.
"You're not dead, you're not dead, how could you die? With the hairpin protecting you, you won't die. Sister Ling, you scared me to death. Fortunately, I came in time. If it had been a little later, I wouldn't have died.
I can't imagine..."
After confirming that she finally woke up, Xue'er kept saying movedly. In fact, there were still tears in her eyes. Ling Snake didn't have tears at all, but she actually became really emotional about Ling'er's matter this time.
As he said that, he helped her up and murmured in fear.
"Xue'er, what on earth is going on? Did your father and the others agree to let me go? Do they think I'm innocent? It was Chen Feng who woke up, right? Xue'er."
The joy of being resurrected after death was only temporary. After she calmed down, Ling'er looked at her in confusion and murmured questions. When he saw that her face turned from joyful to gloomy, he asked her nervously and frantically.
"Well, Sister Ling, I, my father, he and the ministers and elders promised to let you go, so they issued this edict in the name of the alliance of ministers. But they have conditions, I,"
Seeing her like this, Chen Xue felt even more guilty. Although she had seen the power of hairpins, the fire almost burned her to death just now. It showed that it was not omnipotent at all. If she did this, would it be able to help her, or even herself?
There is no guarantee. But there is absolutely no way she can do it if she is allowed to watch her die like this.
"There are conditions. You, Xue'er and the others, what conditions did they offer? Is your brother Wang awake?"
Seeing the little girl's original joyful expression suddenly turned gloomy. Ling'er knew it wasn't that simple. But he still turned around and asked her nervously. Thinking that Chen Feng could really control his own destiny and completely protect himself, he couldn't help but ask anxiously and expectantly.
.
"No, Brother Wang is still the same. It's been a day now. Sister Ling, don't blame Xue'er. Xue'er had no choice but to give dad and the others advice just to save you. I told them. As long as you can use the hairpin
Saving Brother Wang means that you are our candidate for queen, and all your past sins have been wiped out. If you fail to save him, you will still be..."
Regarding Ling'er's eagerness and expectation, Chen Xue hurriedly spoke out, looking at her with a sad and guilty expression. Thinking that he would decide her fate like this, he felt even more ashamed and guilty. He said the last punishment for the little girl.
He lowered his head and said no more.
"I understand, you compromise with them on this. To save my life, you put my life on this little hairpin, right?"
Seeing her like this, Ling'er understood everything immediately. The meaning was obvious. As long as she could save Chen Feng, she would be the upright Snake Queen and their queen. If she couldn't, she would still die.
Seeing the helplessness and guilt on the little girl's face, Ling'er felt even more bitter. It was really ridiculous that her fate was controlled by this hairpin. But she didn't say anything to defend herself at all.
Ability, really.
Thinking of this, she was a little angry at Xue'er. One moment of life, one moment of death, what if she didn't succeed? She gave herself hope, and then took it back. She struggled to get up, pulled out the snake-shaped hairpin on her head, and asked Xue'er dryly.
"I, Sister Ling, Xue'er, am also helpless. But I don't have the strength or ability to save you, and Brother Wang is unconscious. I, Sister Ling, Xue'er know that this is cruel to you, but this is also the last chance.
As long as you stand up, you can exist here with brother Wang upright, I..."
Seeing Ling'er's face filled with sadness, Chen Xue quickly explained to her. In the end, the little girl lowered her head in obvious guilt and did not dare to look at her.
"This little hairpin, does it really have such power? If it does, I hope it can take me away from this place of right and wrong, alas. But just now I was burned by fire and smoked out and passed out, and it didn't
No reaction at all. Well, I don’t blame you, I am willing to take a gamble. I will take my life as a bet. If I really lose, it will also be my life. Xueer, I still thank you, really, really thank you.
.”
After hearing what she said, Ling'er had to believe the facts before her. She really put her life in the hands of the hairpin on her head. This hairpin indeed saved her and Chen Feng. But many times, when she was in danger,
It still didn't respond. I just don't understand why it reflected only those two times.
It seems that she has no choice. In order to survive, she has no choice but to hand over her life to it. This is a bet. If she loses the bet, her life will be taken again. If she wins, she will win her position here.
and identity. After thinking about it for a moment, looking at Xueer's guilty expression, Ling'er said to her gratefully.
"Sister Ling, me,"
For Ling'er's thanks, Xue'er even blushed with embarrassment.
"Sister Ling doesn't mean to blame you at all. This is a bet, and I am willing to give it a try. It is better than having no chance at all. Let's go, take me to see your brother Wang. I will do my best to save him.
.”
Seeing her like this, Ling'er quickly denied it. Looking at her, he said considerately, and at the same time turned around and walked out of the crowd. Seeing her like this, Xiaohong quickly supported her, and Chen Xue could only follow her forward.
As for whether hairpins can save them, it depends on God's decision.
