Shen Meimei had just expressed her determination. If she went against the emperor's will again, it would probably cause the emperor's dissatisfaction and suspicion, which would undoubtedly be very disadvantageous to her.

Therefore, although she was very reluctant in her heart, she could only nod and agree helplessly, indicating that she was willing to follow the emperor's arrangements.

On the other side, on the Tonghua Terrace, Prince Guo had already drunk a lot of wine and was a little tipsy. He knew in his heart that today was his end and he would not be able to escape death no matter what.

In this case, why bother struggling? It is better to drink and enjoy these last moments.

At this moment, Shen Meimei was carrying the poisoned wine she had prepared in advance and walking towards the Tonghua Terrace step by step along the stairs.

With every step she took, her heart grew heavier, because what she was about to face was not just a mission, but she would have to end a person's life with her own hands - this person was none other than Prince Guo, with whom she had a close relationship.

Thinking of this, her heart was filled with contradictions and pain, and she felt extremely resistant to the upcoming killing. However, she had to complete this mission.

The wooden door of Tonghua Terrace was pushed open with a creaky sound. Yunli looked up and blurted out, "Why is it you? It seems that my brother can't bear to do it himself! Perhaps he is afraid of being branded as having killed his own brother!"

After Yunli finished speaking, he picked up the wine jug, tilted his head back and took a sip, then burst into laughter. It seemed that he had already become indifferent to life and death.

Shen Meimei looked at the unruly Yun Li in front of her and sighed softly, "Do you have any unfinished business that you need me to help you with?"

Yunli looked outside the door. He knew that the emperor must have arranged for someone to eavesdrop. He just smiled sadly and said:

"Please ask the Imperial Concubine to take good care of Yuan Che for me. As his father, he is the person I feel most sorry for! Tell my brother that Yun Li's death is not a pity. I only hope that he will spare her life for the sake of the fact that the Imperial Concubine Xi gave birth to a prince and a princess!"

Shen Meimei nodded helplessly. She didn't know if she could do it, but facing a dying man, she could only nod and agree.

After a long time, it started to drizzle outside, and suddenly there was a loud thunder. Yunli had already taken the wine jug that Shen Meimei brought in, and drank it directly.

Thunder roared, Yun Li sat down on the table, he looked out the door, a smile on his face, "If love lasts forever, why would it matter if we are together day and night? I have no regrets in this life, but I have let down too many people, I'm sorry!"

Yunli saw Meng Jingxian's smile and Yuyin's eyes full of resentment, but Zhen Huan, whom he had been thinking about, never appeared.

After an unknown amount of time, black blood flowed from the corner of Yunli's mouth. He slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep leaning against the table.

Xiao Xiazi was watching outside. Shen Meimei didn't dare to delay. She walked out of Tonghuatai with Caiyue's support.

"Your Majesty, is everything done?" Xiao Xia Zi asked from the side.

Shen Meimei's face was pale. She had personally seen off a friend. She was sad and didn't want to talk much.

Before she could return to report, Su Peisheng passed on the emperor's oral order: "Pass on my oral order, order Imperial Noble Consort Shen to go to Bitong Academy immediately and send Imperial Consort Xi on her way!"

Shen Meimei was terrified and surprised. She had just executed Prince Guo Yunli with her own hands, and now she was asked to execute Zhen Huan.

She looked at Su Peisheng, her eyes full of disappointment and coldness, "Does the emperor really want me to do it?"
