Following Cao Yangyun, Xiang Jin came to Xianyang Prison for the first time.
Looking at the bright courtyard outside, it was different from what she had imagined. Just like Ran Fang, he could always surprise people.
After walking around in the cell, Cao Yangyun finally stopped at the door of a cell, opened the lock on the door, and said to Xiang Jin, "This is it, go in."
"I'll stand at the door. If you need anything, just shout and I'll rush in right away."
It can be seen from the door outside that this room is for Xiangzhuang alone and is much stronger than the barred cells outside.
Xiang Jin felt a little sorry for her brother. She bent down and saluted Cao Yangyun: "Thank you very much."
Then, she opened the door and used the faint light from the door and a palm-sized window on the wall to see Xiang Zhuang's situation clearly.
She stepped forward and pulled the embarrassed Xiang Zhuang with trembling hands, and tears couldn't help but fall.
When Xiang Zhuang heard someone opening the door, he thought it was Ran Fang's person, so he didn't raise his head, with some mockery on his lips.
When he felt someone pulling him and smelled the person's scent, he opened his eyes in surprise, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Jin'er..."
"Why are you here?"
"Then Ran Fang actually asked you to come to this filthy place!"
Xiang Jin looked at the person in front of him heartbrokenly. It could be seen that Ran Fang had never tortured Xiang Zhuang, but after staying in prison for so long, he had long lost his former coolness.
And the look in his eyes that cares about him cannot be faked.
She was very comfortable living in Ran Fang's house, but she forgot about Xiang Zhuang who was still suffering.
Suddenly, a feeling of sourness and guilt surged into her heart.
"elder brother."
"The commander didn't ask me to come. I begged him myself. I want to come and see you."
"How are you?"
Xiang Zhuang didn't react for a moment. Ran Fang actually asked Xiang Jin to come see him?
However, it was quickly overshadowed by the worry in his heart.
"It's okay, I'm fine."
"Although Ran Fang is sinister and vicious, he didn't make things too difficult for me. Don't worry."
"Xu Qiwen was also arrested. Have you seen him?"
"I heard from the jailers that he suffered a crime, and I don't know if he survived..."
As he said that, Xiang Zhuang lowered his head heartbrokenly. He knew that Xu Qiwen must have been arrested by Ran Fang to save him.
Xiang Jin didn't know about this, but she also heard in the house that Chun Yuxian, the land of Ran Fang, came to Xianyang Prison and said he wanted to save someone, and she also knew whether it was Xu Qiwen.
Uncertain in her heart, she did not tell Xiang Zhuang.
"I didn't hear anything about it."
"Brother, we are the only ones left in the Xiang family now. My uncles and uncles have all passed away."
"Can't we let go of the hatred in our hearts and live a good life?"
"If you are willing, I can tell the commander, and he will definitely let you go. Then we can live happily as before."
"OK?"
Maybe he didn't expect Xiang Jin to say that. Xiang Zhuang's expression was stunned for a moment, and then with a "pop" sound, a slap fell on Xiang Jin's face.
Along with the sound of the iron chain clanking, Xiang Jin's cheeks swelled up in just a few seconds.
A trace of pain flashed in Xiang Zhuang's eyes, and then he became very hard. He really couldn't accept that his sister would come and make him surrender to Ran Fang. This is humiliation!
This is the Xiang family’s humiliation!
"you!"
"Xiang Jin, how can you say such things?!"
"You just forgot about the hatred between Ying Zheng and Ran Fang and the Xiang family, right?"
"Have you completely forgotten how your uncle died?!"
"You disappoint me so much!"
Xiang Jin was not angry after being beaten, but had more tears.
She had already guessed this outcome when she came. The Xiang family had lived to avenge the Chu State for so many years. It would be even harder to get them to let go of their hatred.
"Brother, our hearts are blinded by hatred, and we cannot see the grand occasion after Qin unified the world."
"But you should go and see how satisfying life is in Qianshou today?"
"There is no war. They live a comfortable life. They only think about how to live a good life without worrying about being displaced. Isn't this good?"
"Why do we have to break the tranquility and fight for a position that does not belong to us?"
"It is destiny for Da Qin to dominate the world, and the war against Chu is a last resort. If we continue to fight for these, wouldn't we be the same as Da Qin?"
"You said you wanted to avenge the Chu Kingdom, but have you ever asked them, are they really willing to take those risks?"
"If the Xiang family's matter fails, then the people of Chu State are so innocent. They will definitely lose their lives due to this incident!"
"When the time comes, who will avenge them?"
"Who should they seek revenge from?!"
Xiang Zhuang looked at his sister in disbelief. She had always been pampered by the family, but now she could say such heartbreaking words.
He pointed at Xiang Jin and shouted angrily: "You... fallacy!"
"Ran Fang asked Wang Ben and his men to rush into our house and burn all traces of the Xiang family with a fire. Have you forgotten all this?!"
"Our life in Chu is so beautiful. If it weren't for the Qin Army, would you have come here? Would you have experienced this life that should not belong to you?"
"They have done so much, is this righteousness or the right way? Is it selfish for me to avenge my family?!"
"You want me to forget so many things with just a few words?"
"How could you say that! You are simply not worthy of the Xiang family!"
Xiang Jin shed tears again when he talked about the fire.
Especially when she received the news of Xiang Yan's execution, she, like all the Xiang family members, wanted to kill Ran Fang and Ying Zheng for revenge.
But during this time, she understood a lot from being with Ran Fang. Sometimes hatred can't solve any problems.
She gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, mustered up the courage to look at Xiang Jin again, and said with sincere eyes: "Brother, I have not forgotten my hatred, I am just willing to put it down."
"My heart aches too. When I think about our previous life, I wish I could go back to the time when nothing happened."
"We are the only ones left in the Xiang family now. If we also die, my uncle and uncle will be sad too."
"But even so, we cannot let the living people experience this kind of suffering again, especially those people who are innocently implicated."
"Moreover, Da Qin is now holding a scientific examination. No matter where they were from before, as long as they admit that they are Da Qin people, they can participate in the scientific examination and become officials in the court. Doesn't this explain the problem?"
"Since Great Qin is changing, why can't we change?"
