Lin Xiao never expected that Yu Xilin would be so cunning. He pretended to be unconscious and rescued Hongye, but actually kidnapped her together and imprisoned her in a dark and damp dungeon!

"Yu Xilin, I really didn't expect you to be such a person!"

Lin Xiao, who was chained, stared at Yu Xilin, his face full of anger, unwillingness, and resentment, but he was helpless.

"Xiao Linzi, you are a rare talent. As long as you submit to me, I will definitely find a good future for you, such as..."

Yu Xilin stood in front of Lin Xiao with an angelic and handsome appearance, smiling, and her voice was so gentle that it could drip water:

"For example, being my king's concubine."

"Pooh!"

Lin Xiao spat hard at Yu Xilin, with hatred and disdain flashing in his eyes, and gritted his teeth and said:

"Dream! I will not give in to you!"

"Yeah?"

Yu Xilin looked at Lin Xiao contemptuously, with a faint smile on her face, walked slowly to Lin Xiao, raised her right hand, and gently patted her little face:

"If the two armies confront each other and I tie you to the flagpole, do you think your Ninth Prince will surrender for you?"

"snort!"

Lin Xiao snorted coldly, with a look of disdain on his face, and said nothing, obviously not believing it.

"It seems you haven't figured it out yet."

Yu Xilin shook his head and sighed, staring at Lin Xiao with a pair of phoenix eyes with a bit of pity:

"I always thought you were a sensible person, but I didn't expect you to be an idiot!"

"What on earth do you want to say!"

"Xiao Linzi, you see clearly, the person standing in front of you now is the prince of Ming Dynasty, not the vulnerable Yu Xilin in the capital!"

"I know."

"You know? Hahaha, why do you still resist if you know?"

Yu Xilin asked with a smile.

Lin Xiao lowered his head in thought, his eyes a little blurry. After a long time, he finally raised his head slowly, with a look of determination in his eyes:

"So what if your Ming Dynasty is restored? Who becomes the emperor has nothing to do with us people?!"

Hearing this, Yu Xilin put away her smile and stared at Lin Xiao deeply. For a long time, Fang slowly raised her lips and said:

"What do you mean?"

"Whether it is the Great Xia Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, is there any difference for us ordinary people who face the loess and turn their backs to the sky?"

Lin Xiao looked at Yu Xilin with a sarcastic face, with heavy contempt and disgust in his eyes.

"……No."

Yu Xilin thought for a while and answered indifferently, with a little loss in his eyes.

Lin Xiao continued to sarcastically say:

"If you want revenge and restoration of the country, I have no control over it, but please don't implicate your willful actions on the people, let alone use me as a bargaining chip!"

Yu Xilin said no more, just looked at Lin Xiao silently.

He had always known that Lin Xiao was a rare talent, but he never expected that she would have such a kind-hearted side!

"Yu Xilin, how did the conversation go?"

A rough voice suddenly sounded, and it was Prince Hao Lian who slowly walked into the dungeon surrounded by his entourage.

When Yu Xilin saw Prince Hao Lian coming, he quickly calmed down his expression and put on a respectful expression to greet him:

"Prince Hao Lian, why are you here?"

"Are you Lin Xiao?"

Prince Hao Lian ignored Yu Xilin, but walked straight to Lin Xiao, looked at Lin Xiao, looked up and down several times, then stretched out his right hand to pinch her chin, and looked at her carefully.

Lin Xiao was so upset by Prince Hao Lian's actions that she didn't know what to say for a moment.

"The people of the Central Plains look different from us. Men can be so handsome, even more beautiful than women. No wonder my unsatisfactory brother Wang is so good at this."

Prince Hao Lian raised the corner of his mouth slightly and let go of Lin Xiao's jaw, his tone full of ridicule and disdain.

After hearing what Prince Hao Lian said, Lin Xiao rolled her eyes at him, but Yu Xilin, who was standing aside, was extremely anxious and quickly stepped forward to excuse him:

"Prince Hao Lian, I have almost finished talking with her."

"Well, let's talk quickly. If he refuses to surrender to us, then give him to the king brother. He will definitely be very happy, hahaha..."

After Prince Hao Lian finished speaking, he laughed and turned away, leaving Yu Xilin and Lin Xiao looking at each other awkwardly.

Yu Xilin secretly cursed bastard in his heart and looked very ugly.

"Xiao Linzi, you heard it too. If you don't surrender, your fate will be worse than death. I really don't want to see you suffer, so..."

"The consequences of seeking the skin of a tiger will be your own destruction. Even if I surrender to you, can you guarantee the success of the restoration of the country?"

Lin Xiao snorted coldly, met Yu Xilin's gaze without fear, and spoke word by word.

"What the Huns want is enough land to herd horses and gold and silver treasures. As long as we give them enough of these things, they will help us restore our country!"

Yu Xilin's face was determined, with enthusiasm and confidence in his eyes.

"Stupid! I finally know why your Ming country was destroyed!"

Lin Xiao couldn't help but rolled his eyes, his tone full of ridicule:

"The human heart is not as good as a snake swallowing an elephant! With your little intelligence, you still want to restore the country. What do you think?!"

Although she couldn't understand Lin Xiao's words, Yu Xilin could feel Lin Xiao's contempt and disdain.

"Shut up!"

Yu Xilin shouted angrily, clenching his fists tightly, his eyes blazing with anger and murderous intent.

Lin Xiao showed no fear at all, and still looked at Yu Xilin with mocking eyes, his tone full of disdain:

"Okay, okay, don't talk nonsense, I will just listen to you. If you ask Prince Hao Lian to come over, I will give him a meeting gift!"

Yu Xilin looked at Lin Xiao whose attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees. He was stunned for a moment, and then a relieved smile appeared on his face:

"Those who know the current affairs are heroes, and they are worthy of my fancy!"

"Hurry up and call Prince Hao Lian over. My arms are sore from being tied up."

Lin Xiao glanced at Yu Xilin disdainfully, and impatiently urged him to call Prince Hao Lian quickly.

Hearing this, Yu Xilin turned around and left.

Not long after, Prince Hao Lian walked into the dungeon.

Looking at Prince Hao Lian's rough face, Lin Xiao curled her lips in disgust, this man looked so wild!

"I heard that you have a meeting gift for me?"

Prince Hao Lian approached Lin Xiao and stared at her with burning eyes.

"yes."

"What kind of greeting gift?"

"How can I leave it to you while I'm tied up like this?"

Lin Xiao curled her lips and explained helplessly that she was indeed extremely uncomfortable being tied up by the chains and desperately wanted to break free.

"Untie him!"

When Prince Hao Lian heard this, he frowned slightly and ordered in a deep voice.

The attendants on the side listened and immediately followed the instructions.

As the chains hit the ground with a crisp sound, Lin Xiao felt that the restraints on his body were instantly lifted, and his whole body suddenly felt much more relaxed.

Yu Xilin looked at Lin Xiao with the corners of his mouth raised, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose.

He knew Lin Xiao. This girl never did loss-making business. Now she offered to give Prince Hao Lian a meeting gift. I'm afraid there was some conspiracy!

As expected, Lin Xiao's eyes fell on the group of followers behind Prince Hao Lian, who looked confident.

Seeing this, Yu Xilin felt even more inexplicably panicked.

"Prince Hao Lian, with all due respect, the soldiers under your command may look strong on the outside, but they are actually vulnerable..."

Lin Xiao observed the expression of Prince Hao Lian as he spoke, and saw a bit of gloom on Prince Hao Lian's face, obviously very unhappy with Lin Xiao's words.

Lin Xiao didn't care about his displeasure and continued:

"I must have been malnourished for a long time."

“What is malnutrition?”
