The news Li Siqin had received was that the Eldest Princess had borrowed gu from the Li Family to set a trap.
Whether the plan succeeded or failed, the Eldest Princess should have borne the responsibility.
Why was Yan'er so desperate?
"What do you know! We're going to die here!" Commandery Princess Yan'er was on the verge of breaking down.
She had concealed it from her aunt, using her aunt's influence to borrow gu from the Li Family.
Now that everything had been exposed, her aunt must have received word as well.
She was doomed.
It was all because she had believed that bastard Xie Jinqian's lies, plunging herself into eternal damnation!
"What nonsense are you talking about? How is that possible? I'm the Li Family's Saintess."
There was no need to elaborate on how important the Li Family was to Southern Mei's Imperial Court.
Her father, Li Meng, was hailed by the people as Southern Mei's wall of bronze and iron. With Li Meng there, even Xia Siheng, the Prince once renowned as the God of War, could not easily conquer Southern Mei.
How could she possibly die here?
"Is the Li Family's Saintess so precious? Let me tell you, unless you summon the divine gu to get us out of here immediately, we're dead! Forget Great Xia-even if we return to Southern Mei, we'll lose our lives!"
Commandery Princess Yan'er threatened her viciously.
If the divine gu rescued them, they would still have a sliver of hope!
Even if they had to scrape by in hiding, without wealth or glory, at least they would not end up with their heads severed from their bodies.
"What exactly is going on!" Li Siqin regained some of her reason. Something felt wrong, and Commandery Princess Yan'er's expression did not look feigned.
