They had all lived in the palace for far too long.
They also know what each other is thinking.
Consort Lan now understands the importance of burning one's bridges.
Only after her death could she leave the last bit of her beauty in the emperor's heart.
If things go like this, perhaps Xiao Dongyang can come back.
Parents who love their children plan far ahead for them.
If Xiao Dongyang had done these things, it would have been absolutely unacceptable in the royal family.
They might even be demoted to commoners.
Right now, all they've done is get expelled; there are no other punishments, so they still have a chance.
Consort Lan knew in her heart that she was also gambling on His Majesty's favor towards her.
"I was confused for a moment and it was really stupid of me to anger Your Majesty."
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Consort Lan cried as she picked up the knife.
The two were separated only by the partition wall of the prison.
When the emperor saw this scene, he was slightly anxious.
A hand slowly rose, as if trying to stop them, but ultimately fell back down.
Even his small gesture was noticed by Consort Lan.
I know that I did go a bit too far this time.
No matter how much trouble she caused, the Emperor always indulged her unconditionally.
But now it seems there's no way to solve it.
If you've crossed a line, you can't blame anyone else.
She leaned back, carrying the long sword, her mind already made up.
If they didn't do it this way, their son might never come back.
"Put your sword down first."
He was just saying it casually, just trying to scare people a little.
How could someone really do that?
Upon hearing this, Consort Lan smiled, but tears were already streaming down her face.
"Your Majesty, I have no way back, but our son has done nothing wrong."
It's truly heartbreaking to see a beautiful woman shed tears.
Moreover, some people in the court have already begun to impeach Consort Lan.
He himself was very clear that he could not keep Consort Lan.
But there is also a stubbornness in his heart.
He didn't want his loved one to die like this.
"Put down your sword. We can talk about it slowly. You don't necessarily have to die."
Consort Lan sighed helplessly, knowing that she certainly wouldn't live much longer.
"Your Majesty, I never truly intended to harm you..."
Zhou Zhizhi was in another place, watching like this.
I really think this person put on a great show.
This is exactly like watching a TV series.
Too abstract.
"Is Consort Lan really going to die?"
Zhou Zhizhi sat in the room with a slight sense of unease.
They have now suppressed everyone.
But they hadn't continued walking yet; there were many refugees around them, and they all needed to be properly settled.
Consort Lan is indeed going to die.
After Consort Lan dies, the eldest prince will return to the palace.
Zhou Zhizhi raised an eyebrow in slight surprise.
I really didn't expect that even in his condition, the eldest prince could escape death.
"Given his condition, would the Emperor still allow him to return?"
Zhou Zhizhi glanced again at the stunningly beautiful face on the virtual screen in front of her.
It seems I can understand it a little bit.
If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to be cruel to someone so good-looking.
[He is definitely going to die.]
The system's words once again made Zhou Zhizhi feel sorry for this beautiful woman who was about to die.
"Isn't there any other way to change this?"
"How about I use my points to exchange for it?"
Zhou Zhizhi knew that in such an environment, everyone wanted to fight for themselves.
Consort Lan also wanted to create a bright future for her son.
I never imagined it would turn out like this.
They were indeed careless in their actions, which led to their current tragic end.
This has nothing to do with anyone else; it's just their own problem.
Zhou Zhizhi genuinely felt that Consort Lan was incredibly stupid in her actions.
But such a beautiful appearance is rare in this world.
It would be such a pity if it were to disappear like this.
【Can't】
The system's cold, impersonal voice echoed in my mind.
Zhou Zhizhi sighed helplessly, and then saw the beauty draw her sword and commit suicide.
It's a little sad, but the time is up and I have to end watching.
"Although Consort Lan said that what she did before was quite stupid, she has to be said that she is quite a capable person now."
"No one can compare to her in doing this much for her child."
As Zhou Zhizhi spoke, she still felt a slight pang of sadness.
[Host, if Consort Lan doesn't die, how will the First Prince turn evil?]
The main storyline is about to begin.
After hearing this, Zhou Zhizhi actually felt a little hopeful.
If the eldest prince truly turns to the dark side, then his return will inevitably be to avenge his mother.
Given this situation, the real struggle for the throne has begun.
The second prince would also be in danger. If he could save the second prince twice more, he could then escape.
Therefore, Zhou Zhizhi was somewhat excited.
As for the Second Prince, whether he can sit firmly on the dragon throne depends on his own ability.
However, in retrospect, the second prince was indeed clever, but the third prince was extremely cunning and scheming.
"Sir, the second prince invites you."
Zhou Zhizhi has never seen any other people who were tied up.
However, many people are still afraid to come in from outside.
They had no idea whether the people who came this time were there to harm them or to help them.
If things continue as before, wouldn't they be harmed again?
So we should still be a little cautious.
Zhou Zhizhi nodded: "Go and tell His Highness, I'll be there right away."
Although Xiao Xiyou sometimes acts without a reason, he is actually quite serious about matters concerning the people.
They are also quite intelligent.
Xiao Xiyou has now arrested all the fat men outside.
What kings and generals? It's utterly ridiculous.
When the tiger is away, the monkey becomes king.
Does he still have that ability?
So Zhang De has already been arrested.
But Zhang De is just incredibly stupid.
He can't even endure much hardship, yet he's already confessed everything and married so many beauties.
After Zhou Zhizhi arrived, she listened from the side.
The more he listened, the gloomier his face became.
