Chapter 22: Choosing to Forgive

This house is not big, it is a small warehouse, very close to the Saiko family, Seben is okay to gather here with his fox friends and dog friends, this is their small base, after Zhang Hao repeatedly assured Dona that he did not see Hill and Seben, Dorna took Zhang Hao and others all the way to look for it, witch hunters are proficient in assassination and torture, there are two sentry guards at the door, catch Zhang Hao and know all the plans of the entire Saiko and Seben, after Hill was sent away, Zhang Hao was also a little entangled, and learned from the news, This family didn't treat Hill badly before, and the hostess didn't know about it, and it would still be a little cruel if she killed them all.

"Why are you tying up Ciel?!" The first to speak was Dona, who knew in her heart, but was willing to admit that she wanted to know from her husband and son that it wasn't true.

"It's none of our business, it's the two of them! We were just hired by them for money, Your Highness, please forgive us, we know that we were wrong" The general's actor was the first to react, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, begging for Zhang Hao's forgiveness.

"Yes, it's the two of them, it's all the two of them, they want the legacy's legacy, and they promise to take us to Aldolphe to enjoy it when it is done...... We have been deceived by money, and we have been confused for a moment to agree to such a thing, merciful highness, please give me another chance, I.... I promise to work hard in the future...... Please" The other person who played the role of the general knelt on the ground with his whole body, his face pressed tightly to the ground, and begged Zhang Hao in a choked voice. Not to mention a prince, even the most down-and-out nobles are not something that commoners like them can offend.

"Is Echard really dead?" Dona trusted her husband and son so much that it was only now that she understood that they were no longer theirs for the sake of money. Dona pulled Seko and Saben to let them kneel down together, now it's not a matter of pursuing them to deceive themselves, it's important to save their lives, Saiko and Saben knelt on the ground and pressed their faces tightly to the ground, and said with a little choked up:

"Your Highness, I.... We have fallen under the temptation of money, knowing full well that we have committed an unpardonable sin, but please give my son a chance when our family has protected Axiel for so long........"

"Your Highness, I am willing to atone for my son's sins, please give him a chance" Dona also knelt on the ground and asked Zhang Hao.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, Your Royal Highness the Princess is all right, she has not been hurt in any way, but there are still some emotional fluctuations." Osseth walked into the house and whispered in Zhang Hao's ear about Axiel's situation.

After hearing this, Zhang Hao took a deep breath with his nose, "Orsaith, what is the crime of kidnapping the princess?" ”

"Decapitated or hanged after parade through the streets!"

"Your Highness! Your Royal Highness! Please forgive our son!! I am willing to take his place with my own life. Dona wept bitterly when she heard Orsse's answer, and kept kowtowing her head and asking for her life to be exchanged.

Saiko suddenly stood up, and the Sun Knights drew their pistols and swords at him.

"Your Royal Highness, I am the mastermind, I am sorry for Lord Echard, I am sorry for Hill, I hope this sin will be paid for in the next life" Saiko regretted it, to be honest, he also liked Hill a lot, and he really wanted his son to marry her, but he didn't know why he was confused by gold coins and a rich life. Neither Hill nor his son and wife had any face to face them, especially Hill, the thought of her made Saiko feel infinitely guilty, he didn't really want to hurt this kind girl, just ..... It's just that....... Just wanted this family to live a slightly richer life all the time, not worried about food and drink and life every day, so he made a wrong decision, you must know that this life is not only about these material things, but also about trust, feelings and other spiritual bonds, but when Seko began to implement this plan, he has completely abandoned these, is this any different from the devil? As a small warehouse for civilians, there is naturally a rake with grass in it, Saiko finally took a deep look at his son who was miserable by himself and Dona, who has been taking care of the family for many years, and secretly said goodbye to them in his heart, and then rushed to the rake without hesitation and stabbed it with his neck.

"Father's !!"

"SEKO !!"

"Uncle Saiko!!" The last one was Axiel, who insisted on returning despite the dissuasion of his minions, and she had a rough idea of what was going on after seeing the place where she had been kidnapped.

"Your Royal Highness! You can't go in. When Orseth saw Hill rush in, he stopped her and prevented her from going any further.

"Your Highness, Your Royal Highness!" Axiel knew that he couldn't get in, so he immediately knelt on the ground and looked at Zhang Hao with tears in his eyes, "I beg His Royal Highness the Prince to forgive them for my brother's sake, and Hill will agree no matter what." Hill knew that her princess was nothing, and that she could take it back if she could give it, and she couldn't think of anything she could do to appease the prince's anger except herself.

Is Zhang Hao angry? The answer is of course, from the mouth of the person who provided the clue, this family is actually not bad, otherwise Echard would not have told them about his sister, but in the era of war, people's hearts are no longer pure, and people will do things that are not legally permissible for various reasons. After the reunification of the country, Zhang Hao checked the depravity value that affects the future life and death of the entire continent through the system, and found that this value is as high as 85%, it is conceivable that the whole country is full of anger and resentment, this is the fault of the country, the fault of the decision-makers, and the fault of controlling the imperial family, which is also the reason why Zhang Hao needs to give the Sigma Sect a buff to rise in the system anyway, and now it is only the power of faith that can quickly change the spiritual status quo of the people of the empire.

"Ciel, do you know what you're doing?" Zhang Hao looked into Hill's eyes and asked her very seriously.

Hill slowly leaned down and pressed his body to the ground as much as possible, "I know Your Highness, but Aunt Dona's family did protect me for a long time, although this time was not very good, I still felt the warmth of home, and the contract between my brother and their family ended after the gold coin was broken, but they still protected me for many months, no matter what they were for, but they did protect me." ”

Zhang Hao thought for a moment and finally decided to forget it, "There is a price to do anything, since the mastermind is dead, I can spare their lives, but you must exchange yourself and your princess title, you think about it carefully, once you agree, you will lose your freedom!" Zhang Hao can't let this kind girl run around alone, otherwise the consequences are not what Zhang Hao wants to see.

When Axiel heard Zhang Hao loosen his mouth, he also relaxed, and replied softly, "I do!" I am willing to exchange my own title and that of the Imperial Princess for the forgiveness of His Royal Highness. ”

"Since you have decided, then this matter will end here, go back to Aldolph" Zhang Hao said and walked out of the warehouse first.
