184 Life Sacrifice

However, Bai Ziyu did not look at the comb, but looked at Bai Xijing fixedly, with a solemn and serious look on his handsome face: "What else do you need besides the key? Xijing, tell me!"

Bai Xijing looked up at Bai Ziyu, a face very similar to her. It's really strange to say that after knowing that Xiyue was his own sister, he found that the two of them were not similar. Instead, Bai Ziyu, who was different from his gender, was very similar to her. However, because their personalities were too distinct, few people would think that they were so similar.

Now looking at the strong uneasiness and concern on the face that is very similar to her, Bai Xijing's heart slowly becomes soft. It took a long time for her to smile and say, "Do you really want to know?"

"Yes." Bai Ziyu nodded and responded.

Bai Xijing then closed his eyes and sighed leisurely: "If you know, promise me something." Seeing Bai Ziyu nodded, Bai Xijing continued to say, "No matter what you hear, please don't blame your father, and... don't return this key to me."

Bai Ziyu didn't know why Bai Xijing said so, but looking at Bai Xijing's serious appearance, he finally nodded solemnly and answered, "Okay, I promise you."

"Brother, can't you think of anything about what your father said before her death?" Bai Xijing did not explain first, but asked back first, with a pair of dark eyes.

Bai Ziyu recalled what Bai Cong had just said that the death of his mother's concubine was sacrificed and was sacrificed as a living sacrifice. Isn't it? Bai Ziyu was shocked, and his eyes widened. He looked at Bai Xijing with an unbelievable look and said, "Do you need someone else to sacrifice in addition to the key?"

The White State is still a rite, so the birth sacrifice is unforgivable in the White State. And now, according to Bai Xijing's words, you have to do such crazy things to get that treasure!

How could he do that!

It seems that Bai Ziyu knows what he is thinking, but Bai Xijing shook his head gently and said, "You are only half right. If you really just need a sacrifice, why do you think my father asked me to help you? Brother, that's all I said. Think about it yourself.

Bai Xijing said implicitly, but how smart Bai Ziyu was, he immediately understood the meaning of Bai Xijing's words. It turned out that what was needed to get the treasure was not only a raw sacrifice, but also a person with the blood of Dazhou to sacrifice his life, and Bai Jing... chose Xijing. He actually sacrificed his own daughter for the White Country! Thinking of Bai Cong's tight appearance just now, and thinking about Bai Xijing's disappointment and gloomy when he saw Bai Cong's silent turn of his head, Bai Ziyu only felt as uncomfortable as tearing.

He suddenly took a step, stretched out his hand to hold Bai Xijing in his arms, and then gently and painfully rubbed her hair and said, "Xi'er, you are actually scared, aren't you? You are actually sad, aren't you? In fact, you are very sad, but you still have to take into account our feelings, don't you? Stupid, why are you so stupid... Is it possible that you really plan to do that living sacrifice?"

He spoke very quickly, and his eyes seemed to spit out fire, but looking at his hands holding her warmly and softly, just like when he was a child, he always held her like this to prevent her from being bullied.

He knew her grievances, her sadness, and her fear.

A warm current slowly flowed through Bai Xijing's heart, and the expression on her bright face became softer and softer. The more he scolded her, the more she felt very warm inexplicably. She slowly looked up and said to Bai Ziyu, "So, aren't you going to take this treasure?"

Bai Ziyu nodded and said, "Xi'er, we are the only people in the world with the same blood. How can I have the heart to let you make a living sacrifice? What's more... What's more, since my mother and Xiyue left, I have vowed to protect you well. I don't want to break my oath.

"What about the White Country? Since childhood, the gentleman has taught us that the country is in the front and the family is in the back. Have you forgotten? In this troubled world, if you want to survive, the State of Bai needs property to ensure manpower and materials. Otherwise, how can the State of Bai support it? Soon... will soon fall under the iron hooves of the State of Ye. I... I just don't want such a thing to happen again. I don't want to let Bai Guo... I don't want to be the most humiliating princess of Bai Guo anymore.

"If we find a way to deal with the matter of Bai Guo, there will always be a way. At worst, we... surrender Ye Guo..."

"Brother!" Bai Xijing's expression changed greatly when he heard the words, and he raised his voice to stop Bai Ziyu's next words: "Now people in China are panicked. How can my brother say such a thing? Although my father said that we could surrender, we must surrender without fighting. The white people are quite strong. If they easily submit to the State of Ye, what do you think the people will think? Moreover, when we surrender so easily, what is the attitude of the State of Ye towards us? I'm afraid that the people will be more difficult to be, and they can't raise their heads and inferior in front of the people of other countries! Even if it surrenders, Ye Guo must respect us, hold good conditions, and get the best welfare for Bai Guo. Among the four countries, the State of Bai can't be the first country to be attacked by the State of Ye, because... the weak have no right to speak, and the road of the State of Bai should not be like this!"

Bai Xijing took a deep breath and analyzed in a calm voice, but the solemnity in his tone was not small. The lesson of the previous life made it clear that Bai can no longer let Bai take that road. She will not be the most humiliating princess of Bai, and Bai can be a weak country despised by any country! No matter what happens in the future, if you want to win a place for the White State, you must prove your strength and strength.

Bai Ziyu looked at Bai Xijing and gradually calmed down, but even if he rationally knew that everything Bai Xijing said was right, there was still a contradiction in his heart. He knows the direction Bai should go, and he also clearly knows what he wants to protect, but now he can't have both. What should he do?

Bai Xijing saw Bai Ziyu's dilemma and shook his head gently and said, "This is the road Xijing chose. Who can stop the young warrior from dying?"

"I don't agree. Maybe the treasure doesn't need a life sacrifice at all?" Bai Ziyu insisted.

Bai Xijing took a deep breath and then looked up at Bai Ziyu and said, "What if you want?" After a long time, Bai Xijing slowly said, "Brother, have you ever thought about why I finally told you this?"

Bai Ziyu shook his head, but Bai Xijing smiled and said, "You didn't think that I didn't want to die, so I deliberately told you to embarrass you, and then pretend that I was willing to die for the State of Bai. Did you selfishly let me survive? Let you carry everything, but you have won fame and fortune. It's okay not to be such a sister, isn't it?"

What she said was half sincere and half fake, which made people unable to figure out what her real mood was. Bai Ziyu looked at her fixedly, but she looked directly into Bai Ziyu's eyes, and something seemed to be slowly precipitating in a pair of glazed eyes.

"Aren't you afraid that I will count on you?" Seeing that Bai Ziyu didn't say anything, Bai Xijing said with a faint smile, "For example, how much will you believe when I say this to you now?"

"Don't laugh, Xi'er." Bai Ziyu suddenly stretched out his hand to blindfold Bai Xijing's eyes. Bai Xijing couldn't see the expression on his face now, but he felt that the palm of his hand was still warm. "It's obviously sad. Why do you have to smile like this? This will only make people feel more uncomfortable."

"..." Bai Xijing didn't say anything more.

"Even if you are calculating me, I will admit it. I will take responsibility for everything." Bai Ziyu's voice was very calm. Even if Bai Xijing couldn't see his current expression, he knew that it was his extremely proud promise.

Bai Xijing suddenly felt that she wanted to cry. It turned out that she had such a relative. In this way, she did not use her first, but just believed and spoiled her. They have been so estranged for ten years. How many decades a person has in his life? Now that I think about it, Bai Xijing only feels a little regretful that he can't spend those most beautiful times with his closest family, but he feels lucky, because even after such a decade, they are still the closest relatives in the world.

"Brother, if you spoil me like this, you will spoil me one day." Bai Xijing desperately collected his tears, but some trills still leaked his most real emotions.

Bai Ziyu smiled gently, and then withdrew his hand. Looking at Bai Xijing's red eyes, he said, "Don't worry too much about everything."

"I know, brother, you can do your own business first. By the way, brother... Oh, no, it's okay." Bai Xijing had something to say, but when he came to his mouth, he didn't say anything more. He just smiled faintly and sent Bai Ziyu away.

After Bai Ziyu went far away, Bai Xijing calmed down his smile, and then invited Siqin to say, "Siqin, are you familiar with Fu Yu, a female official in my brother's palace?"

Siqin was stunned for a moment, and then nodded and said, "Yes, Fuqi is a fellow villager of slaves."

Bai Xijing pondered and said, "Go and find her to see if she is still on duty in the womb. If so, let her write down the prince's daily itinerary and hand it to me."

Siqin said hesitantly, "But it is not allowed to record the royal family's living itinerary..."

"I am responsible for this princess, and you just go." Bai Xijing narrowed his eyes slightly.

Siqin gritted her teeth and answered simply and went to the world. Bai Xijing exhaled and called Du Kang, "Du Kang, I guess I'm going to trouble you to do something for me again."
