Capítulo 181: Starve than Serve

"What is it that you really do outside the walls?"

There was no other way that he could say it. "Whatever it is that you hear that I do outside the walls, all of it is true." He pursed his lips. "They are not lies. I go out there, I kill people, I burn villages to the ground, then I bring back slaves."

Tianshi Xue's face contorted. "I don't understand."

"I know," he said. "But you're not asking the right questions."

"Well," she said. "Why do you do that to the people out there? Why do you take them and make them slaves? Why do you rob them of their free life?"

"That is actually a good question."

"Stop patronizing me."

"I'm not," he quickly replied. He took a deep breath and look at the setting sun. "Before I answer that, you have to understand that no other people could know about this. Only the emperor, my birth mother, and my trusted people know."

"Does the Doctor know about this?"

"Jinghua?"

"Who else?"
