Xiao Chengyi also didn't expect that Jun Heng would end his life in this way.
Perhaps, this is the last thing he can do for his wife as a husband.
Since I can't persuade her to take the right path while I'm alive, I'll do it with my own life.
Xiao Chengyi said: "Does Your Majesty still feel that he came to Beijing this time to seize your country in southern Xinjiang?"
Duan Qingli was stunned by his question.
Xiao Chengyi said: "Gu said that Gu came to southern Xinjiang for three things only, one is to get the second princess to marry, the other is to use King Gu as a dowry, and the third is to take away the Holy Son.
To this day, I still have these three requirements. I have no interest in your country in southern Xinjiang.
It's your Majesty who treats all the grass and trees as soldiers, and regards King Gu and the Holy Son as more important things than the country, the country, and the country, which leads to the bitter fruit today."
Duan Qingli looked at Xiao Chengyi and said: "Aren't you joining forces with Duan Mingxu and Mingyang to force the palace to seize my country in southern Xinjiang?"
Xiao Chengyi snorted coldly: "Your Majesty's empire should be left to your son.
I have already said that if I wanted your southern territory, my father would have taken it back then and would not wait until today.
Your Majesty doesn't believe it, thinking that everyone wants to take advantage of you in southern Xinjiang."
Duan Qingli said: "I don't understand. Since you don't want the country of Southern Xinjiang, what do you want King Gu and the Holy Son to do?"
Xiao Chengyi said in a deep voice: "To save people."
He said: "Take away the Gu King. From now on, there will be no need for innocent women to raise the Gu King in southern Xinjiang, and no one will sacrifice their freedom for the Gu King in the future.
As for the Holy Son, he is not a god, just an ordinary mortal.
As the king of a country, it is your duty to protect the people. However, whether it is the woman who feeds King Gu or the holy son, they are all your people.
You should treat them equally and have mercy on them, but you entrust the responsibility of protecting the world to them and let them shoulder the responsibility of being the king of a country for you.
This is your fault in the first place, and you are destined to lose."
Duan Qingli lowered her eyes and murmured: "You are right, such a simple truth, but I didn't understand it until now."
Xiao Chengyi said: "Junheng did this to save you, and also to save Jun Limo. Gu said that if you break your promise, you will take back everything you own.
Junheng used his life to wake you up and save his son from death. I hope your majesty will remember the pain today and not make the same mistake again."
With these words, he took Mu Yun'an and Chu Liancheng out of the palace.
When they met, Ye Xiuchen and Jiang Ru came to greet them.
"Xiao Chengyi, are you okay?"
Ye Xiuchen's face was full of worry. He heard that Xiao Chengyi was taken into the palace, where could he sit still?
Xiao Chengyi glanced at him and said: "What can happen to me? But you, I heard that you were arrested by Her Majesty the Queen?"
Ye Xiuchen touched his nose with some guilt and said, "I was accidentally tricked."
Xiao Chengyi asked: "The second princess rescued you? It seems that you two are making rapid progress? Before, you were full of disgust and didn't want to marry someone else, but now you have changed your mind?"
Ye Xiuchen said nervously: "Who dislikes it? You...don't talk nonsense."
He was afraid that Jiang Ru would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said: "Aru, that's not the case."
Jiang Ru blinked her eyes and said, "Why are you so nervous? Didn't we just discuss it and each get what we need? Could it be that you took it seriously?"
Ye Xiuchen listened to the four words each asked, and suddenly felt like an eggplant beaten by frost, feeling an indescribable feeling of frustration.
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyebrows when he saw this, and looked at Ye Xiuchen meaningfully, quite intent on watching the excitement.
