Hua Xi still didn't understand and asked hurriedly: "What is a sacrifice?"
"Human sacrifice." Shen Huaixu added in a low voice.
Hua Xi was stunned, what is this? She digested it for a long time, and then said angrily: "What nonsense? Human sacrifice, isn't he a god?"
"Miss, don't talk nonsense!" Ling'er said nervously.
Shen Huaixu said: "Human sacrifice has been around since ancient times. Every emperor has made sacrifices during his reign."
"Bullshit! Only tyrants and demons would do such cruel things!" Hua Xi said coldly.
"It is indeed cruel, so the previous emperor issued an oracle: Those who offer sacrifices can only be selected from prisoners who have committed heinous crimes and are about to be executed, or those who volunteer." Shen Huaixu said.
"What should I do? The people sent by the Imperial Master have already arrived outside the house!" Ling'er cried suddenly.
"Why did the Imperial Master send people here?" Hua Xi asked.
Shen Huaixu suddenly opened his eyes wide, could it be...
"In order to atone for his sins, the master voluntarily offered the young lady to the emperor as a sacrifice." Ling'er said and suddenly started crying loudly.
Hua Xi was also stunned and looked at her in disbelief.
Shen Huaixu was even more shocked.
"Xi'er!" Dugu Feng suddenly walked in in a hurry, his face full of tears, and hugged Hua Xi into his arms, "You hurry up, I have people hold back the envoy of the Imperial Preceptor."
"Mother, if they find out that I ran away, they will turn their anger on you." Hua Xi said calmly.
What a Mo Qingtian, as expected, the spring breeze blows and grows again!
Even if she didn't kill him completely, he would still think of ways to harm her!
It's said that a tiger's poison cannot eat its seeds, but Mo Qingtian must have hated her to the core!
She didn't dedicate herself to King Pingnan to save him, so he dedicated her to the emperor and died in a hundred deaths!
It’s not easy for him anyway, and he won’t make it easy for her even if he’s in prison!
"No." Dugu Feng shook his head, "Mother has arrangements."
Hua Xi has always been a smart person. When she heard Dugufeng's words, she suddenly guessed something and looked behind her.
"Mother, where is Huaijin?"
"Miss Shen is helping Miss Shen build the flower stand!" Si Xi said quickly.
"It's raining so hard to put up a flower stand? The soil can't stick to it, right?" Hua Xi raised her head, "Ling'er, go and ask Huaijin to come over."
"No!" Sixi quickly stopped Ling'er, "Miss Shen got caught in the rain and is resting because she doesn't feel well!"
"In that case, let me go see her." Hua Xi left Dugufeng's arms and strode outside.
"Xi'er!" Dugu Feng suddenly grabbed her hand, and Si Xi also ran forward to stop her, with tears streaming down her face.
Hua Xi looked at them and said coldly: "You let me run away, and then asked Huaijin to make sacrifices in my place?"
"This is Miss Shen's own wish!" Si Xi knew she couldn't hide it from her, so she could only say it.
Dugu Feng also lowered her head, not daring to look at Shen Huaixu's face. She felt guilty in her heart.
"Master Shen is still here. He asked his sister to sacrifice. Did he agree?" Hua Xi asked.
"I won't stop Huai Jin from doing what he wants." Shen Huaixu said behind him.
Hua Xi turned around and looked at him, and suddenly smiled: "Shen Huaixu, you are so generous. I saved you, and then your sister went to sacrifice for me. Can't you wait to repay my kindness?"
"It's no big deal to repay life for saving your life," Shen Huaixu said.
"Hahaha, really?" Hua Xi sneered, "I'm not weak enough to let others die for me!"
