They each have their own hateful and deplorable aspects, but no matter what their love-hate entanglement is, what do the people of Li owe them? Why should they be displaced and have nowhere to live because of these bullshit?

For a time, everyone's resistance to Shen Yu reached its peak, but they also lost their previous expectations and trust in the Li royal family. Just look at their attitude towards Gao Yingran.

Zheng Meng and others looked at me and me, all surprised. Without thinking too much, we quickly retreated.

When Qin Xi learned the truth from Zheng Meng and others, his whole person felt like he was struck by lightning. After the country was destroyed, those days and nights that were filled with hatred suddenly became a joke.

Shen Yu is evil, but his evil was promoted by his father, the emperor, and his mother. If the mother had not lost her mind to deal with Qi Mei, and the father had not protected her, how could it have evolved into the situation today?

But Qin Xi quickly realized that his father was not resentful of his mother for suppressing Shen Yu, but for him. After all, there was something wrong in the middle palace. How could he, the legitimate prince, end up well?

Once the people know that their queen is as poisonous as a snake and a scorpion, they will definitely lose trust in the royal family. Once the people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to unite, and it will do no good to the country of Li.

Therefore, the father must feel wronged by Shen Yu and must suppress these matters for his mother. Unless the father wants to abolish his position as prince, otherwise, the father can only arrange this.

After thinking about this, Qin Xi covered his face in pain. As a vested interest, what right did he have to blame his father, the queen, and his mother? The father's debt was paid by the son, and he had no right to blame Shen Yu.

There was a dilemma between advance and retreat. He really didn't know how to continue.

While Qin Xi was in a dilemma, Gao Yingran was trying to take all the blame on her by pretending to be crazy and acting stupid. She couldn't let the people lose confidence in her son, otherwise, wouldn't it mean that there would be no hope of restoring the country?

"How do you think the male protagonist will deal with this conspiracy?" The traitorous minister system said, watching Gao Yingran's hoarse confession not far away, opening the water mirror and staring at the painful Qin Xi.

"It doesn't matter how he responds." Li Xiaoji pushed the traitor system back to the sea of ​​consciousness with one finger, and just laid out his battles and waited to finish the plot.

Qin Xi didn't hesitate for too long. The nature of mother and child meant that he couldn't just watch his mother being tortured to death by Li Xiaoji, so he formulated a rescue plan.

Zheng Meng and others were somewhat resistant, but after Liu Yuening's private persuasion, they decided to rescue the people first and not let the other party become a bargaining chip to hold the Northern Territory hostage.

It was night, Gao Yingran's voice was hoarse from shouting, and her breath was weak due to the torture of ice water, so she had to close her eyes and endure silently. The stage under the city gate was still there, and she would continue to sing tomorrow.

Gao Yingran felt uncomfortable when she thought of the strange gaze on her. It was her fault that she harmed others and ultimately harmed herself. She not only harmed herself, but also harmed her son.

Why couldn't she be calmer at that time, why didn't she know how to cherish her? His Majesty was obviously very good to her. As a queen, she got the dignity and respect, the love and warmth she deserved.

Her son will be the next emperor, and she will also become the Queen Mother, one person below ten thousand people. This is the highest power she pursues, so why can't she be satisfied?

Why must we demand the only love in His Majesty's heart? If we really demand it, we should treat His Majesty wholeheartedly and look forward to his response, instead of being jealous of the innocent Qi Mei.

"I was wrong..." At this moment, Gao Yingran finally realized her mistake sincerely and sincerely apologized to Qi Mei. However, it was too late and it was difficult to recover.

Xu was finally willing to face her mistakes. Gao Yingran relaxed a lot. She smiled slightly, looked into the dark night, and said to her heart: "Xier, mother, I can't burden you anymore..."

Thinking about it, Gao Yingran took a deep breath, with a hard look in her eyes, and struggled desperately, trying to break the rope, intending to die to calm everything down and stop being an obstacle to her son's return to the country.

Unfortunately, the rope was strong and Gao Yingran was weak. She thought she tried her best, but it was just twisting like a bug.

Another basin of ice water was poured down, and Gao Yingran woke up completely, but her desire to die became even stronger.

In the past, the purpose of seeking life was to reunite with his son. Now, the purpose of seeking death was to atone for sins and protect his son for the last time, and to remove a major obstacle to his son's ascension to the throne.

When Li Xiaoji led people to the city gate, what he saw was Gao Yingran, who was twisting and turning. He noticed the lifeless energy coming out of her body and couldn't help but sigh. Human nature is really complicated.

No, it should be said that maternal love is deep. No matter how unbearable people are, they will do their best to protect their children. Although there are some who do not love their children, most children in the world can be surrounded by maternal love.

Unfortunately, he was not among them. He was abandoned by his parents when he was born and was destined not to feel such strong and complex emotions.

Without Li Xiaoji's order, no one dared to take care of Gao Yingran. Qin Xi, who had been lying in wait for a long time, watched his mother suffer in pain and felt even more uncomfortable.

But there was a sense of boredom in the eyes of Zheng Meng and others. They would still be loyal to Qin Xi and the prince of Li State, but they would not have any respect for Gao Yingran, the culprit.

It would be a good thing if Gao Yingran died right now, so as not to become an obstacle to Qin Xi's accession to the throne in the future.

Just when Qin Xi and others were preparing to take action, a sudden change occurred on the city gate, but it was Shen Yu's imperial decree that asked Li Xiaoji to send Gao Yingran back to the cold palace.

Seeing this, Qin Xi and others naturally could not let Gao Yingran return to the cold palace. They must seize the opportunity to rescue her.

But just when Li Xiaoji's people pulled Gao Yingran up and untied the rope from her hands, she who seemed to have fainted from exhaustion suddenly opened her eyes, knocked away the person blocking the way, and fell straight into the air. jumped off the city wall.

With a "bang", Gao Yingran died as she wished, with a relieved smile on her face. Her consciousness that had not yet dissipated reminded her of the scene when she first met Qi.

Obviously at that time, she just wanted to be good friends with this beautiful little girl. They were obviously so good friends, but the palace was complicated, and when she was forced to breathe, it was Qi Mei who comforted her all the time...

"Mother..." Qin Xi was so shocked that he was about to rush forward, but Zheng Meng covered his mouth in time and pressed his shoulders. His grief-stricken cry was blocked, but tears burst out like a fountain.

"..." Li Xiaoji's people looked at me and I looked at him, and they knelt down to apologize in a tacit understanding. Li Xiaoji stood on the city wall, looked down at the dead Gao Yingran, and coldly ordered everyone to collect the body.

When the news reached Shen Yu's ears, he couldn't help laughing. How could he not know Gao Yingran's purpose of seeking death? Sure enough, no matter how ruthless the poisonous spider is, he knows how to protect his cubs, and she is no exception.

If you die, you will die. Shen Yu has never thought of holding Li Xiaoji and others accountable, but he will never let Gao Yingran rest in peace.

Therefore, before the news of Gao Yingran's death spread, Li Xiaoji received Shen Yu's order to skin and dismantle Gao Yingran's bones and throw them into a mass grave to feed the dogs.

Li Xiaoji accepted the order and immediately led people to dispose of Gao Yingran's body. Qin Xi, who was still immersed in grief, saw this and immediately realized that he could not let these beasts destroy the body of his mother.

He immediately changed his plan and led Zheng Meng and others to quietly follow Li Xiaoji and his party until they stopped in front of the mass grave outside the city.

"What are they going to do?" Qin Xi watched Li Xiaoji's men take out sharp knives and guessed a possibility, and couldn't help but change his expression.

Zheng Meng frowned, knowing that when it was time for him to take action, he took a bow and shot an arrow. The thick black could not block his sight, and the arrow shot towards Li Xiaoji like lightning.

Li Xiaoji blocked with his sword, and looked in the direction of the arrow without surprise. The men on the side decisively arranged their formation, "There are assassins, protect me!"

It's almost the end, so put on your helmet silently.
