Every mission requires death, so it is appropriate to describe it as a death soldier.
Xie Mingxi was not too surprised. She glanced at the calm face of the sixth princess and continued to inquire: "Have you been practicing martial arts since you were a child?"
The sixth princess nodded.
Xie Mingxi asked again: "Do you have any parents or relatives?"
The sixth princess quickly shook her head: "No." After a pause, she added: "I have been an orphan since I was a child."
As an orphan without a father or mother, he was chosen among the hundreds of orphans in the orphanage. I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a misfortune. However, young children simply cannot refuse such a fate.
After that, he and several other orphans with the same identity received the most rigorous training... It is appropriate to describe it as practicing martial arts since childhood.
It's a pity that the spear skills that have been cultivated for many years and made perfect shots are no longer useful. Instead, the horseback archery that I practiced on a whim back then has come in handy. I can't help but sigh at the magic of fate.
Most of the soldiers chosen to die are orphans. This is because orphans have no relatives to care for and are the easiest to control.
A hint of understanding flashed in Xie Mingxi's eyes.
The speculation in my mind finally got a clear affirmative answer.
"Now that I think about it, it's a good thing to have no worries and no one to care about." The sixth princess's calm voice was full of freedom and ease: "Everything in the past has been cut off. Now I am reborn and have a brand new life."
Xie Mingxi still had a lot of doubts in her heart, and she frowned and asked: "Her Royal Highness the Sixth Princess passed away due to a high fever, and you suddenly appeared in her body. Is it because you also died that your soul left the body?"
"Why is it not another soul but you? Is there a mysterious connection between you and the Sixth Princess?"
The Sixth Princess twitched her lips helplessly: "Your question is also the confusion in my heart that I can't figure out."
There must be some reason why God allowed me to be reborn in this body!
Maybe, this body is my previous life?
For a former atheist, such speculation was quite absurd. However, the most absurd soul traveling has become a fact, and I quickly calmed down from the extreme shock and accepted the reality.
Nowadays, no matter how absurd and bizarre things happen, I won't be too surprised.
…
The bedroom was quiet for a moment.
Xie Mingxi looked deeply at the Sixth Princess and asked abruptly: "Have you never read a book? Why are the three courses of Rites and Music so weak?"
As expected of a top student among top academics, at this time, he actually started to care about his own studies.
The Sixth Princess explained dumbfounded: "You misunderstood. Even though I am a 'dead soldier', I still have to study."
However, the time spent studying is far less than the time spent training.
Furthermore, I was born not to like the liberal arts. Over time, it is an indisputable fact that I am weak in the liberal arts. It is not necessary for missions anyway, and my weakness in the liberal arts has not affected the fact that I am the best agent!
If I had known that one day, I would be thrown into the bewildered Daqi Dynasty and had to study the Four Books and Five Classics, how could I have studied harder?
The Sixth Princess sighed in her heart and took the initiative to speak to Xie Mingxi: "However, I didn't like the Four Books and Five Classics before, and I never studied them seriously. I also didn't learn the etiquette and music."
A smile flashed in Xie Mingxi's eyes: "No need to say this, I can guess it."
The Sixth Princess, who was mercilessly ridiculed again: "..."
The expression on the Sixth Princess's speechless expression made Xie Mingxi chuckle.
The Sixth Princess is finally willing to open her heart and reveal her past that she did not want to be humane.
At this moment, the two of them were several feet apart, with two thin layers of gauze in between, but they were closer than before when they were side by side and holding hands.
The Sixth Princess struggled to put down her lofty words: "I have made rapid progress in the past six months. If you continue like this, I will catch up with you in less than three years."
Xie Mingxi continued to chuckle, with a trace of indulgent teasing flashing in his eyes: "Okay, then I'll wait and see."
The sixth princess puffed up without blushing and said, "Just wait and see!"
Xie Mingxi couldn't help laughing and curled up her lips.
…
The layers of solid defense are like a hard shell. It is indestructible at first, but when there is a crack, the crack will soon become bigger and bigger.
The secrets that I didn’t want outsiders to know were revealed naturally.
"In my previous life, I lived to be twenty-four years old. During a mission, I was betrayed by my spy and my true identity was revealed. Surrounded by dozens of people, I was unable to escape and simply perished together!"
"When I was about to die, I dragged a bunch of people on my back. I didn't die unjustly."
The sixth princess's voice was light, and there was no trace of hatred or madness: "I was selected as a death soldier when I was six years old. From the age of fourteen, I was sent out to perform tasks one after another. Counting ten years, it is considered worthy of training me.
of……"
When the word "country" came to his lips, it was quickly replaced by: "Master."
As the country's "secret weapon", its ultimate fate may be like this.
Just like the dead soldiers who were secretly raised by the powerful in the Great Qi Dynasty. If they did not go out, most of them would escape death. Some of them had to die immediately after completing their mission, so as not to reveal the identity of their masters.
This is the common fate of all dead men living in darkness.
Xie Mingxi hummed and said casually: "Have you ever been married and had children?"
Sixth Princess: "..."
The Sixth Princess cleared her throat and tried to stay calm: "No. In my world, late marriage is practiced. Some people are thirty years old and have not yet started a family. I am still young and I don't even have anyone I like. How can I marry and have children?"
Xie Mingxi was a little surprised: "In Daqi, there are many grandmothers over thirty years old. You didn't get married until you were thirty?"
What a strange custom!
The Sixth Princess and Xie Mingxi unanimously cursed in their hearts.
…
Tiredness creeps in quietly.
Xie Mingxi felt sleepy and closed her eyes in a daze.
The voice of the sixth princess could be heard faintly in her ears: "I have always wanted to ask you a question. In your previous life, you married the fourth prince and became a palace concubine. What happened after that?"
Have you ever given birth to children for the fourth prince?
How does the fourth prince treat you? Why do you keep silent about him without saying a word?
When did you close your eyes? Did someone hurt you?
Besides Sheng Xuan, who else is your enemy?
Also, are you really going to fall out with someone who has cheated on you and never forgive you? The sixth princess didn't have the courage to ask this last question, so she just rolled it over in her heart silently, and then suppressed it.
After waiting for a long time, the Sixth Princess did not wait for Xie Mingxi's answer. She only heard Xie Mingxi's long and gentle breathing.
Xie Mingxi has fallen asleep.
The sixth princess had excellent eyesight. Through the two layers of gauze, she could still clearly see Xie Mingxi's calm and soft sleeping face. The restlessness in her heart also disappeared without a trace.
The sixth princess closed her eyes and soon fell asleep together.
