The mighty Royal Forest Army surrounded King Gu's palace.
Duan Qingli walked over angrily, looked at Xiao Chengyi and others walking out of the Gu Temple, and asked in a cold voice: "Where is the Holy Son?"
Xiao Chengyi knew that Duan Qingli had gotten wind of it and that the Holy Son was missing, so he came to investigate.
He shrugged and said, "Shouldn't the Holy Son be in the Witch Temple?"
Duan Qingli angrily scolded: "That's enough, Your Highness, stop pretending. Are you an orphan? Don't you know you let the Son and the Saint go?"
She said: "I have always respected you because I thought you were the Prince of Beichen, but now you have ignored the friendship between the two countries and released my Holy Son of Southern Xinjiang privately. Where do you want to put my Southern Xinjiang?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "Your Majesty blamed me for the disappearance of the Holy Son, are you trying to make excuses?
You can ask the high priest, I have always been at odds with the Holy Son, and we even had a fight a few days ago. How can I blame his disappearance now?"
Duan Qingli looked at Jun Limo and asked, "Mo'er, is the disappearance of the Holy Son related to His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Jun Limo rolled up his sleeves and bowed: "Yes, His Highness the Crown Prince made a big lamp.
The Holy Son and the Holy Lady flew away on the big lamp, because the incident happened so suddenly that I had no time to stop it."
Xiao Chengyi glanced at Jun Limo and said in a calm voice: "The high priest wants to burn down the bridge? Let the Holy Son go. Without your approval, even if I have the ability to reach heaven, I can't do it."
Jun Limo said coldly: "Your Highness, please don't drag me into the water."
He said to Duan Qingli: "My son fell into the trap of His Highness the Crown Prince. He thought he was not compatible with the Holy Son, so he relaxed his vigilance and asked the Queen Mother to punish him."
Duan Qingli rushed back just after receiving the letter from the high priest.
She believed that her son would not collude with Xiao Chengyi. Because the Holy Son was missing, A Lanyi had to become the person to protect the Gu King.
Her son wouldn't do that.
Duan Qingli took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, won't you give me an explanation?"
Xiao Chengyi snorted: "There is no need to accuse me. Your Majesty has already had murderous intentions against me, but he just lacked a reasonable motive.
Your Majesty is really not afraid that millions of cavalry from Beichen and Nanyue will trample your southern border?"
Duan Qingli clasped her hands and said: "Who said Gu wants to kill you? Gu is not stupid. Your majestic Prince Beichen cannot die in our southern border.
However, you have never taken Gu alone seriously in your actions, and you dared to release the Holy Son privately in the territory of Southern Xinjiang. Then you have to ask us, the people of Southern Xinjiang, whether we agree?"
Xiao Chengyi chuckled: "Your Majesty, do you want to use the people's hands and words to punish me and give me a reasonable death penalty?"
Duan Qingli raised his eyebrows: "You are the only bloodline in the Beichen royal family. If you die and the royal family dies, I don't believe what kind of waves Beichen can make."
Xiao Chengyi seemed to have heard a joke and said: "Your Majesty is really ambitious."
Duan Qingli stared at him and said: "Before coming, I had already arrested the man named Ye Xiuchen. If His Highness the Crown Prince resists, I will kill him first."
Xiao Chengyi narrowed his eyes: "I hope your Majesty will not regret today's decision."
Duan Qingli waved her hand: "Take her down."
The Imperial Forest Army came forward and escorted Xiao Chengyi and others away.
However, when they saw Xiao Chengyi's cold eyes, they couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Xiao Chengyi held Mu Yun'an's hand and walked down the steps. When he passed by Duan Mingxu, he glanced at him casually.
Then he left.
Jun Limo walked over quickly and asked, "Does mother really want to do this?"
Duan Qingli said: "You have also seen that Xiao Chengyi does not take us seriously at all. If we let him leave, Southern Xinjiang will perish."
She took a deep breath and said, "I do this because I want to create a bright future for southern Xinjiang."
