Yelyu Lie pulled the little princess into his embrace.
The heart in his chest was pounding fiercely, even his strong arms were trembling.
"It’s good that there’s nothing, it’s good that there’s nothing..."
He was truly afraid, afraid that he wasn’t doing well enough, and he’d lose her.
For a moment, he was truly willing to let go of all his persistence, even if she wanted to plead for those robbers...
He thought, he was willing.
He once thought he had a bottom line; in front of the little princess, right and wrong were his bottom line, the country’s people were his bottom line!
But at this moment, Yelyu Lie realized so clearly...
It’s gone.
Whatever bottom line he had, when faced with her, it all disappeared.
Such a self, Yelyu Lie despised immensely.
He even wondered, if one day Bianliao and his little princess were placed in front of him, how would he choose?
Would he truly become a traitor to his country?
What he didn’t know was that his little wife, his little princess, his little princess, would never let him fall into such an embarrassing situation in this life.
From the moment she clearly realized she had fallen in love with him, from every moment when he protected and loved her like a rare treasure, the two of them had long become a community of destiny.
If such a thing were to happen, even at the cost of death, she would not put him in a difficult position.
She hugged him back, tightly and tightly.
As if wanting to blend herself into his body.
When his frantic heartbeat finally gradually calmed down, that lovely, soft white little face slowly lifted from his chest, "Husband, may I share my thoughts now?"
Yelyu Lie paused, "Do you still want to plead for the people of Sha Hai Country?"
The little princess shook her head firmly, "No, I just want to express my opinion; whether you adopt it or not is up to you to decide, I won’t interfere with whatever result you come to, nor will I throw a tantrum with you because of this matter.
The only thing that can affect the two of us is you not loving me anymore,"
Yelyu Lie let out a long breath and suddenly began to laugh.
He really wanted to show off his beloved to the entire world! He really wanted to loudly tell everyone how wonderful his wife was!
However, he also wanted to hide her goodness away, not letting anyone discover.
This is his treasure, this is the greatest and best treasure he, Yelyu Lie, encountered after half a life of hardship and a lifetime of luck!
"Then you just prepare yourself to accompany me for lifetimes."
The possibility of him not loving her will never appear.
With every moment spent with her, his heart falls deeper.
At this moment, he is already deeply trapped, unable to extricate himself.
She smiled again, her pitch-black eyes under the candlelight, like the myriad stars in the night sky.
She took his big hand, came to the bedside, and sat down.
When she was about to sit beside him, he scooped her up with his long arm and directly let her sit on his strong thigh.
She was soft, as delicate as a little rabbit, with no weight at all.
Yelyu Lie pinched that porcelain-white little face, a bit frustrated, "Why can’t I seem to fatten you up?"
"Stop fooling around, we’re talking seriously now."
She smiled and slapped away his mischievous hand, "Husband, is what Lian Qiao said true? The people of Sha Hai Country, also the elderly and children?"
At the mention of this, Yelyu Lie’s smile froze at the corner of his lips.
How could he not know those people were innocent?
But he’s a General!
Being decisive in killing is the only mission he has to adhere to on the battlefield!
Otherwise, the nightmare that he’s always memorializing, yet can never get rid of, would replay again.
To not eliminate the roots, endless troubles will ensue!
"Yes."
He did not deny it.
Yun Chunnuan’s heart sank, carefully considering each word she was about to say.
The man seemed like a worm in her belly, seeing her difficulties at a glance.
He sighed deeply, "Nuannuan, just say whatever you want, say whatever you want, you are so considerate, if I can’t appreciate it and only shout at you, then I don’t deserve to be your husband."
Yun Chunnuan curled her lips, her smile even sweeter.
Look, this man will never disappoint you, will always make you feel like no matter what you give for him, it’s willing.
"I want to say, is there a better solution? One that doesn’t sacrifice both the people of Sha Hai Country and those robbers, but can still keep them tightly watched, preventing any harm to Bianliao."
Yelyu Lie raised an eyebrow, "What brilliant idea does Madam have?"
"Grace, threat, combined."
Her sweet, soft voice pronounced these four words deliberately.
Yelyu Lie understood grace and threat, but how to exert grace and how to exert threat?
