Xia Tian was confident and spoke calmly: "Miss Sima wants to see if I am as weak and incompetent and as timid as a mouse as the legend says."
"What you want to know more is why I do it even though I know that asking to marry you is a dead end."
Sima Lan was a little surprised, and there was no hint of contempt in his beautiful eyes: "Why?"
Xia Tian restrained his smile and stood solemnly: "I will put myself to death and live again!"
"Instead of lingering in the palace, like a pig being fed by farmers in a pen, with life and death not controlled by oneself, why not get out of the palace and gain a chance of survival?"
“Without freedom, it is better to die!”
Sima Lan's eyes flashed with brilliance: "If you don't have freedom, you would rather die than you say so well!"
"So, this is all part of your plan?"
"yes!"
Only by being honest can you hope to gain the trust of this beautiful girl.
Only then can we hope to win this huge gamble in life.
now.
There was less contempt in Sima Lan's eyes: "Last night, the imperial edict granting marriage arrived at Prime Minister Zuo's residence. My father wanted to protest the marriage on the spot, but I stopped him. Do you think why?"
"Hehehe"
Xia Zhizhu was in hand, and he smiled lightly: "Because, resisting the decree is the last resort!"
"You have a better way, how about becoming my bride!"
Sima Lan's shocked and pretty look was also very beautiful. His eyes were fixed and his mouth was dumbfounded. His small cherry mouth was slightly open and could fit two quail eggs.
According to rumors in the imperial capital, the Ninth Prince is a nerd who doesn’t understand the world!
It looks like now, definitely not!
It’s more like being wise and foolish!
After a while.
Sima Lan woke up with a start, bit her red lips lightly, and asked with complicated emotions: "What method do you think it is?"
Xia Tian stared at her smart eyes: "Drag the word tactic, drag me to death!"
"You think I can't make it to the fief alive!"
"Or, even if I can make it to the fiefdom alive, in front of the vicious Sirius army, I will be a lamb to be slaughtered and I won't live long!"
"As long as I die, you will be free. Maybe you can escape the Sima family's political marriage and choose the life you want."
Sima Lan was shocked again!
Can he read minds?
"How do you know what I'm thinking?"
"Hehehe"
Xia Tian smiled wildly and uninhibitedly: "I have read the poems and essays you wrote. The meaning of freedom and ease, and the yearning for freedom are contained in every word."
"I wish I could see all over the world, I don't want to hide my beauty in a small space, I wish I could live a happy life and be drunk among the flowers, I'd rather wear rough clothes and learn farming, isn't that your favorite sentence?"
Speaking of this, Xia Tian stared at Sima Lan's beautiful eyes and paused every word: "The most important thing is that you are unwilling to give in!"
"You don't want to do anything in exchange for benefits!"
"You don't want to be an accessory to power!"
"You want to be yourself!"
"This king is your only chance to be free."
When Sima Lan was told the central issue, he couldn't help but murmur to himself: "Am I unwilling to give in?"
Yes.
She was unwilling to do so.
Don’t be reconciled to the fact that all you have learned is of no use!
If you can't do a career like a man, you can only be trapped in the palace and be a caged bird from now on.
Make a beautiful plaything!
The contempt in Sima Lan's eyes disappeared and she looked straight at Xia Tian!
The one who understands her is actually this legendary good-for-nothing prince who is bound to die.
now.
The sun rises from the horizon.
Under the morning sun, a stunningly beautiful girl gazed longingly at a handsome young man, like a pair of golden boys and girls. The picture was astonishingly beautiful.
Sima Lan's heart is in chaos!
She stretched out her jade hand, straightened the scattered hair around her ears, and opened her red lips lightly: "Your Highness, Prince Huang, do you know what the fiefdom of Huangzhou looks like?"
Xia Tian nodded: "I know!"
"Of the nine states in Daxia, Dahuang State is the smallest in area!"
"And it is located in the far west. Most of the state is barren mountains and ridges. 80% of the land is covered by forests. Miasmic poisonous insects are everywhere. The environment is extremely harsh. Throughout the ages, it has been a place where prisoners of various dynasties were exiled!"
"The people there are strong and fierce, and there are many ethnic minorities. They set up strongholds on dangerous peaks and ridges. They are barbaric and ferocious. People often turn into bandits. There are many killings of officials in Dahuang Prefecture!"
"It has only been twenty years since the founding of Daxia, and twenty state officials who went to serve in Dahuang Prefecture have died."
"So, if you go to Dahuang Prefecture to be an official, you will either die or be on your way to death."
Speaking of this, Xia Tian frowned slightly: "In recent years, the imperial court has exiled some prisoners to manage Dahuang Prefecture. As a result, the officials and bandits there have become a bad land."
"The emperor and the prince believe that even if I reach Huangzhou, I won't live long!"
"Because the hatred for the imperial court in the hearts of people in the wilderness will kill me!"
Sima Lan smiled slightly: "Since you know this, aren't you afraid?"
"Hahaha"
Xia Tian smiled and looked at the rising sun: "Is it useful to be afraid?"
"Are you afraid that these things won't happen?"
"Can you survive if you are afraid?"
Sima Lan shook his head lightly: "I'm afraid not!"
Xia Tian asked back: "Then why should I be afraid?"
