t... what a face!"Little Four, my face is fine, I...""It'll be alright."Feng Lingxi looked at Xiao Li beside her, "Xiao Li, apply the medicine I brought to the third sister."Feng Yu Xi looked at her i..."Li Shang, do you think I would still help you"
Lan Zhan's words left Li Shang incredulous. He looked up at Bai Xia Die, gazing into her eyes filled with hatred, and questioned, "For Bai Xia Die, you would betray me Lan Zhan, do you believe me when I say I will exterminate your entire clan"
"Farewell!"
Bai Xiaodie shouted angrily, Li Shang looked at Bai Xiaodie, he didn't expect her to stand up for Lan Zhan.
"You plotted to usurp the throne, killing my father emperor and ruining my reputation. Now, you still want to kill Lan Zhan in front of all the civil and military officials What else are you capable of doing"
Bai Xiaod ie finished speaking, looked down at the civil and military officials, and said loudly, “Your lords, how my father treated you when he was alive, you all have a number in your hearts. Would my father be like Li Shang, so cruel and unprincipled, to start a war for his ambition and leave the people homeless”
All the civil and military officials bowed their heads and began to discuss. Bai Xiadie, with red-rimmed eyes, continued, “Since my father had me, he never had any more children. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he always had a prince, who was also the crown prince of our Tianqi Kingdom. He was raised by his biological mother. My father respected his mother and didn't bring him back. Now that my elder brother has returned, Your Excellencies, Xiadie hopes that you will stand with me to defend the territory of Tianqi Kingdom.”
"Bai Xiaod ie, what evidence do you have that he is the son of the former emperor Moreover, if the former emperor had a prince, why wasn't he passed the throne"
"Will you abdicate the throne if you provide evidence"
Faced with Li Shangbu's relentless pursuit, Bai Xiadie showed no fear. Seeing him squinting his eyes, she took out an imperial edict, raised her hand, and the civil and military officials below began to murmur.
“This is the imperial edict that Father wove ten years ago. It has always been kept by Uncle Huang. Now, it’s time to take it out and prove Brother’s identity.”
The Prince Regent received the imperial edict and held it up towards the city gate. "My lords," he said, "take a good look. Is this truly the handwriting of the late Emperor"
Li Shang looked at the certainty in Prince Fen's eyes, and anger flared in his own. He glared at Prince Fen and shouted.
"Over such a great distance, who could possibly see clearly."
"Lan Zhan!"
Bai Xiaodong cried out, taking the imperial edict from the King of Grand Preceptor and throwing it to Lan Zhan. Lan Zhan leaped into the air to catch the edict, landing with a soft thud and then showing it to the officials below. Li Shang looked at the contents written above, his handsome face turning pale as paper. It was indeed the handwriting of the late emperor, and it clearly stated that the throne would be passed to Bai Mo Bai, his son in the commoners. After his death, the King of Grand Preceptor would assist Bai Mo Bai in ascending the throne.
"Li Shang, do you see clearly It's written here plain as day, the Emperor has a Crown Prince, my elder brother Bai Mo Bai, not you, this traitorous rebel who seeks to usurp the throne."
Bai Xiaod ie was furious, pointing at Li Shangzhi as she spoke, her body trembling slightly from anger. Li Shangzhi looked at Bai Xiaod ie like this, and smiled coldly.
"Bai Xiaod ie, I am not ashamed to lose to you. It was I who underestimated you."
Li Shang looked into Bai Xiaod ie's eyes, seeing confusion cloud them. Lan Zhan waved his hand, and the Imperial Forest Army behind him surged forward, their swords pointed at Li Shang, effectively controlling the situation.
"Lan Zhan, I have only one request. I want to die in Xiao-die's hands."
"You dare!"
Lan Zhan coldly rebuked, "You caused the Butterfly Fairy to end up like this. What else do you want Do you still want her hands stained with blood"
"Lan Zhan is right, I won't kill you with my own hands because you are not worthy of dying by me."
Bai Xiaod ie drew a sword from the waist of the Prince and tossed it to Li Shang, "End your own life."
Li Shang looked at the sword in front of him, bent down to pick it up, and his eyes fell on Bai Xiadie. Looking at the coldness in her eyes, he realized that what he wanted was already too late. Bai Xiadie was no longer the Bai Xiadie she used to be.
"Xiaodie, I only ask you one question, do you truly want me dead"
Bai Xiaoduo looked at Li Shang's gaze fixed on her. In Li Shang's eyes, she actually saw his love for her. Bai Xiaoduo found it amusing. A man who could bring ruin to her family, where did he get the love to give her
Yes.
Li Shang chuckled wryly, "So, you'd rather have your child grow up knowing his father died at the hand of his mother, than to let me live"
"You have no right to bring up children with me. They are my children, and they have nothing to do with you."
Mentioning her child, Bai Xiaoduo seemed to be transported back to that day. Her helpless pleas for mercy were in vain against the man who forced her into his embrace. And she only learned afterward that the man was the one she had secretly loved all along.
"Xiadie, I offer you the world in exchange for your promise to fulfill just one request of mine."
At this point, Li Shang proposed this request, Bai Xiaod ie's hatred for Li Shang grew even stronger, "What else do you want me to agree to"
"Promise me, never speak of me to the children."
After Li Shang finished speaking, the sword in his hand suddenly slashed across his neck, blood splattering everywhere. Li Shang held the sword, kneeling on one knee, his eyes fixed on Bai Xiadie, a doting smile playing on his lips, barely moving them. But Bai Xiadie couldn't hear anything, her mind was blank, only Li Shang's doting gaze remained in her vision.
Heartbreak, bitterness, suffocation, Bai Xiaodai looked at Li Shang, unknowingly tears flowed from the corner of her eyes.
Bai Mo watched Bai Xiadie's reaction, wanting to comfort her but not knowing how. Li Shang's death came too suddenly. He had thought of many possibilities, but Li Shang didn't do any of them. Instead, he chose the most unlikely situation and gave the Jiangshan back to Xiadie like this.
Perhaps, in Li Shang's heart, he truly loved Bai Xiaodai. However, the allure of the throne was too great, causing him to abandon this love. Xiaodai's hatred for him led him to give up his throne and choose to end his life.
The death of Lisang ended the rebellion in Tianqi Kingdom. Bai Mo stayed behind to handle matters in Tianqi Kingdom, while Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng returned to Linxi County, waiting for Bai Mo to finish dealing with things before signing an alliance with him.
"I really didn't expect this to be so casual about Li Shang dying."
獨孤城看著風淩兮一聲不吭，“兮兒，這下你滿意了吧？”
Feng Lingxi glanced at him, "Actually, if Li Shang chose another way, perhaps the throne would still be his. However, he chose to hurt Bai Xiaod ie and force the previous emperor to death to get it. Although he won the world, he lost his loved one. This marriage of his is probably a real attempt to make amends to Bai Xiaod ie, but unfortunately, it's too late."
Dugu Cheng nodded, he also felt that Li Shang's way of leaving was really wrong.
Who can accept this love that has brought ruin to a family, for the depth of love equals the depth of pain.
Li Shang understood too late, so he chose this way to make up for Bai Xiadie. It's just that Bai Xiadie will probably take some time to get over this pain.
Feng Lingxi nodded, thinking of Bai Xiadie's eyes when Li Shang died. Bai Xiadie truly loved Li Shang.
