"But you're still alive. Since you chose to live, the suffering is certain." The teenager seemed to be talking to her, but it also seemed like he wasn't talking to her.

"What if he doesn't survive?" Baili Lianer looked at the bright and beautiful teenager, and his heart became more bitter.

I've always been regarded as an inauspicious person since I was young. My father didn't feel pain, my mother didn't love me, and I even put on a mask to praise them. Every day, I've lived a life that was even more tiring than the corner of the theater. Baili Yu thought to himself. She felt that she had been possessed, to think that she would say so much to this stranger.

Baili Lianer suddenly realised, people who were able to stay in the palace were all either rich or noble. She had unintentionally revealed her thoughts, wouldn't it cause her trouble?

"Who are you? You are not allowed to speak of everything you heard today. If you dare to tell others, then I will kill you." In a moment of desperation, Baili Lianer took out the hairpin and pressed it against the youth's neck.

The corner of the young man's mouth pulled back into a disdainful smile, and then, with a move of his hand, the hairpin in Baili Lianer's hand landed in his hand.

"Let go, do you know who I am? I'm a princess, you treat me like this and I'll let the emperor kill you." Baili Lianer wanted to use intimidation to make him let go of her.

He then said with a smile, "Then do you know who I am? I'm the prince of the Xia Rong Country, and your emperor's guest. Who do you think he would lean towards if we were to cause a ruckus in front of the emperor."

The emperor had been very good to her since childhood, and was even better to her than her father. She didn't want the emperor to make things difficult for her, and she didn't dare to bet either, because the emperor's love for her was the only warmth she had since she was young. She was afraid that the person the emperor had abandoned was her, and she was afraid that the only light in her heart would also dim down.

"No, I apologize." Without the slightest hesitation, the arrogant confidence in Baili Lianer's eyes crumbled, leaving only sadness.

The youth let go of her hand and gently pushed her hairpin back into her hair. Baili Lianer had never been so close to a man of the same age as himself, so he couldn't help blushing, his heart beating very quickly.

"You are a princess and I am a prince. We all have our own uncomfortableness and helplessness. Since there is no one willing to help us, why don't we do it ourselves?" Baili Lianer was shocked by his words, and a strange feeling rose in her heart.

"Do you want to leave this Sea of Bitterness?" The young man looked at Baili Lianer, who nodded like a ghost. The young man smiled, "Then I'll be the one who help you out, we're all pitiful people, why not comfort each other?" The teenager said as he pulled Baili Lianer's hand and walked forward.

Baili Lianer was immersed in the youth's words and did not recover from it.

Then I'll be the one who gets you into trouble.

What a beautiful sentence, just like when she was young and it was her first time in the palace to see the emperor. The emperor held her hand.

No one had ever cared about her. Her memory was only abusive and disdainful, so that time when she was in the emperor's arms, she cried until the sky went dark.

The short words of the youth in front of her caused her to feel moved. Baili Lianer should have flung the youth's hand away, but she did not.

Although it was their first meeting, Baili Lianer had an inexplicable reliance on the youth in front of her. She was very curious how this youth would help her escape this Sea of Bitterness, maybe he really could, then wouldn't her many years of suffering be over?

Baili Lianer was looking forward to it in her heart, but she was also very perturbed. She was afraid that if she took one wrong step, she would be beyond redemption, but she still couldn't bear to shake off that warm hand.

Today was the day when the emperor was inviting Xia Rong Country's envoys for a banquet. The moment Baili Lianer entered the hall, it was as if she had just woken up from a dream; she wanted to struggle free and escape, but the youth was tightly holding onto her hand and did not let go.

"Trust me, don't you want to go all out?" The youth whispered into his ear.

After that, the youth walked in front of the emperor. The emperor looked at them with a surprised expression, but Baili Lianer didn't dare to look at the emperor's eyes as she silently lowered her head.

"This is?" the Emperor asked.

"Your majesty, I know that Your Majesty doesn't want to marry me, and the emperor loves the Grand Princess dearly, so he definitely won't let her marry too far, and I won't force him to do so either. After all, in the future, the two of them will be living a happy life, and no matter what, we should just pick a happy one, and the emperor also said that he has a daughter, otherwise, he would choose to marry her. Since the marriage is between two nations, and it's for the good of Qin and Jin, then I heard that there's no problem with people possessing the blood of the two nations." The youth's face was fearless and calm like water, but the words he spoke caused everyone present to be astounded.

"Nephew, are you joking?" The emperor's face was filled with an awkward smile.

"Does the Emperor think I'm joking?"

"Marriage is not a joke." The emperor's face carried a bit of anger as he looked at Baili Lianer reproachfully.

Her eyes were filled with tears, but she bit her lips and forced herself not to stay, causing her heart to become completely ice-cold. She had some expectations for the emperor, and she always felt that she had a different opinion of him, so it turned out that it was just a reflection of the moon in the water.

"It's precisely because it's not child's play that I don't want to marry someone who isn't willing to marry me as my wife. Grand Princess loves family, and I should marry someone else to be on good terms with Grand Princess and me." The young man's tone was firm, and in the end, the Emperor lost.

"Since Nephew insists, then I won't stop you. The fragrance has been condoned by me. You're a good husband, and in the future, you won't be able to get anything out of it. It's just that the little girl doesn't have any good fortune." The Emperor sighed.

Baili Lianer stood at the side, her fingernails digging into her flesh, but the pain in her heart was not even one millionth of what it was before.

The Emperor's gaze of reproach was like a thorn, piercing deep into her heart and becoming a thorn in her heart.

The Emperor sighed and said to the eunuchs at the side, "Prepare an edict. Princess Shengde and Prince of Xia Rong Country have an alliance. This is to show that the two countries are on good terms with each other and to pray for eternal peace."

In the midst of all the sighs, Baili Lianer was brought out of the great hall by the youth. After the imperial edict was completed, the surrounding officials all gave their congratulations. Baili Lianer did not hear a single thing, she only felt that her ears were buzzing, and her mind was completely blank.
