Chapter 1054

Lie Jiuqing looked at the children and Lie Jinting, his eyes gradually becoming cold.

"Human sacrifice is not just to deal with Wen Rong."

She really couldn't be so indifferent, but Lie Jinting was not moved at all, as if these were not children, but just dead things.

Lie Jinting saw the anger in Lie Jiuqing's eyes and his throat rolled.

"Seventh sister, the imperial power is heaven, and you and I are both subordinate. We do not have the final say in many things. The imperial power is always the truth in this world. What they want has nothing to do with us."

Lie Jiuqing's lips tightened, and Lie Jinting's words seemed to be acquiescence.

In this founding hall, Wen Rong was never the one to escape unscathed, and the imperial power would not stop its atrocities because of this.

At this moment, Lie Jiuqing suddenly understood that Lie Jinting had always been Lie Jinting.

This kind of him is the real him, the real commander of the Imperial Guard.

Lie Jiuqing could hardly remember Lie Jinting from his previous life.

At that time, he seemed to have more warmth.

Although the Lie Jinting in her memory was not a competent brother, he was the only person in the Lie family who never harmed her. He even had the last trace of softness towards her and saved her life.

Maybe she just saw an illusion.

But under this kind of comparison, Lie Jiuqing's heart felt clogged and felt particularly uncomfortable.

She is sad.

The brother from his previous life seemed to have just disappeared.

She didn't even have time to thank him before he disappeared.

Now Lie Jinting's desire to control her seemed to drown her.

Lie Jiuqing struggled several times, but Lie Jinting only tightened his control.

Lie Jinting's strength was so strong that her wrists were already bruised and even numb from the pain.Lie Jinting quietly looked at the flames of resistance in Lie Jiuqing's eyes, feeling an indescribable complex emotion in his heart.

"Seventh sister, don't be naive and don't do things beyond your capabilities. Taking risks and resisting will not get you anything. Just be obedient, can't you?"

Lie Jiuqing opened his hand little by little and took two steps back.

"Brother is wrong. I never do anything beyond my capabilities. I just want to see if there is any room for relaxation between us."

Lie Jinting froze, feeling that Lie Jiuqing was so far away from him for the first time, "We are brothers and sisters, there is always room for us."

Lie Jiuqing turned around and headed in the direction of Emperor Yun. Passing by Lie Jinting, he left a cold sentence.

"We are brother and sister, but my brother and I will never be the same person."

Lie Jinting grabbed her wrist fiercely and explained in a hoarse voice: "Seventh sister, as a brother and a minister, I have to do this. Besides, these children's sacrifice will not be in vain, they will bring more stability to the court..."

Today's imperial power relies on human sacrifice in exchange for stability, which is ridiculous to hear.

"Since my brother is a subject, I should protect His Majesty now."

Lie Jinting's hand froze, and Lie Jiuqing pulled it out with force. Only then did he see that her slender wrist had turned black, which looked shocking.

Her face was whiter than the white snow in the sky, and it was only then that he remembered that there was not a single injury on her body.

He slowly tightened his fingers and said, "Okay."

Lie Jiuqing wanted to leave, but Lie Jinting grabbed her. This time the force was much lighter and would not hurt Lie Jiuqing, but she couldn't break free.

"His Majesty needs you."

Lie Jiuqing looked at his hand that was tightly clinging to his wrist and said indifferently: "I can't walk or escape. Brother, can you let go of me? It hurts."

Lie Jinting tightened his fingertips and let go of her little by little, "Be obedient. As a brother, I won't make things difficult for you."
