The people in the square knelt down and shouted long live, while Qinglian stood abruptly in it.Jiarui supported Zhulan with his hand, and saw Qinglian standing tall in the crowd with just one glance, his heart that was so painful that it was almost numb felt relieved, and said in his heart: Seeing my desolate appearance, Qinglian, how can you help me? Feel relieved?Father owes Yanlan, Yinguo owes Yueguo, I owe you, let's end it today.

188、Apologize...

Qinglian raised her head, ignoring Tong Jingyu's questioning and worried eyes on the gate tower, and independently looked up at the clothed man.Jia Rui was dressed in filial piety, she didn't wear a crown, and her hair was loose, but she hadn't seen her for more than ten days. Qinglian didn't expect Jia Rui to change so much.It’s been a long time since offering sacrifices to the heavens and praying for blessings, but Qinglian always felt that the bruise on Jiarui’s forehead was still obvious against the pale complexion when she looked at it from a distance. It looked a bit abrupt, and there was no blood on the lips.Those introverted eyes are now like a bottomless cold pool, and there is a clear shadow in front of her eyes, which is scattered in the wind and flutters. Qinglian can't believe her eyes, she seems to see Jiarui's frost in a trance hair on the temples.Jia Rui was still as proud and upright as before, he was indeed the emperor of a country, but he looked extremely haggard, as if he had gone through a catastrophe.Qinglian couldn't help sympathizing, thinking of the death of the empress dowager, Jia Rui should be very sad as a child, but then thinking of Tong Siming's unjust death in the palace, the original compassion disappeared instantly.Qinglian didn't care whether she offended Tianwei or not, she stood with her hands behind her back, looking up at the tower without fear, wanting to see what kind of mystery Jiarui was playing.Although he is not wearing a dragon robe, Jiarui's majesty is natural. When he waved his hand, just saying "flat body" contained the power to make people absolutely surrender. A large number of kneeling people stood up one after another, watching the emperor on the heights, waiting for Jiarui. Rui widely posted the imperial list in Beijing with the intention of calling the city people to gather here.Before everyone could figure it out, they heard a sharp voice, "Xuan, Emperor Dayin Jiarui, I am guilty." It was like a knife was cut on everyone's body, and the flesh and blood were torn, but it seemed like a heavy blow was thrown. Hammer, it's painful, the country has reached a point of no return, is the emperor going to issue an imperial edict?Even those illiterate ordinary people felt the despair at this moment, but they couldn't blame the emperor. "I, Qi Hanchen, have been in here for 16 years since I came to the throne. It is my crime to employ people to administer the country and govern the country, but not to respect the heaven and the ancestors. As a result, the country's governance has not been perfected, the people's livelihood has not been fulfilled, and a vision from the sky has caused harm to the mountains and rivers. ..." Jiarui took the imperial edict from Wang Li, and slowly opened it by himself, since it is his own crime, let me personally announce it to the world to thank my subjects.Qinglian looked at Jiarui who was high above the city tower for a long time, and laughed in her heart that this time the emperor took out the "edict of guilt", and said something innocuous to fool the people.However, perhaps because of the distance, Qinglian couldn't see that Jiarui's hand holding the edict trembled slightly. The emperor's calm and firm voice required a lot of courage to maintain it. Unless it was a last resort, which emperor would be willing to personally discredit her , Let the history books be stained forever?Qinglian didn't think about or discover these at the moment, even Qinglian chose to turn a blind eye to the sad eyes that were the most moving in the past, and Qinglian also turned a deaf ear to the trembling and hoarse voice like weeping blood.Two hearts that deviate from each other are like two clouds of different heights.At this time, Jiarui couldn't care much about Qinglian's thoughts, since he was listed on the imperial list in Beijing Zhongguang, since he stood on the tower today, and since he held the edict of sin in his hand, he had already read the first word to the subjects of the world , since the matter has reached the point of no return, then let yourself draw a relatively satisfactory end to it. There are too many mistakes, and this is the only thing that can be made up for. I only hope that there is still time to save the country from danger.Qinglian originally had an indifferent expression on her face, but her expression slowly changed when she heard that Jiarui said a lot of things in her guilty edict, so much that Qinglian did not expect that Jiarui would make those hidden mistakes public. Shouldn't the emperor cherish his feathers and do whatever it takes to maintain his dignified image of a king and emperor? "Since I came to the throne, I have neglected government affairs and neglected to be a king, so that I was loyal and killed my life. Xuanying Tongqing, who served the late emperor for many years, was dedicated to his duties, virtuous and obedient, and filial. Pearls and jades are covered with dust, good ministers are wronged, and I have committed two crimes." Jia Ruiping held up the imperial edict every word and every word, without squinting, and ignored the commotion of the city tower, Qinglian's heart also followed Jiarui's every word of repentance And shake.Grandpa's death is an eternal pain in Qinglian's heart, and that kind of remorse is deeply burned into her heart and cannot be wiped away, and because of this, the wound in her heart is an eternal ditch between Jiarui and Qinglian.After all, Qinglian begged Jiarui like that at the beginning, but Tong Siming still died in prison.The deep wound was covered up by Qinglian with strong hatred, and it was buried in the deepest part. Jiarui opened it up again just before it was about to ferment and rot, and exposed it fiercely in front of everyone, letting everyone know that it was Whose fault, whose broken promise, caused an irreparable ending.Jiarui is using the highest standard of confession to plead guilty to Qinglian, so how can Qinglian not be shocked by it? "The prosperity of the family and the country are all blessed by the gods. Today's disasters are rampant and the people are far from suffering. This is the fault of my wrongdoing. As a result, the gods are resentful and angry, and my subjects are affected by the disaster. This is my three crimes..." Jiarui wanted to continue Go on, but there was an uproar under the city tower, because Jiarui mentioned the most critical issue here. Now that the epidemic has broken out, the people are already unbearable under the government's series of coercive policies. Now the emperor has personally proposed that all public grievances All burst out at this moment. "Your Majesty, that's not the case!" "Monsters, it's the monsters of the Moon Kingdom that angered the gods!" evildoer.After all, the common people saw all the deeds of kneeling in the rain and offering sacrifices to the heavens. Now that the rain has stopped, how can the common people believe that their lord is a fool?So Jia Rui smiled wryly in his heart, seeing the commotion under the city tower, he didn't know what to do, and the people were like this, he didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune.Just when Jiarui was about to appease the people, the situation suddenly changed. For some reason, the people downstairs suddenly found Qinglian, who was wearing a divine jade forehead crown, among them, and the scene suddenly became chaotic. "Monster——" "Hurry up, this is the evildoer who has brought disaster to the country and the people, look, there is still a faint light shining on his head!" "Kill him, come quickly, kill him—my mother and baby are Killed by him!" Qinglian was pushed and shoved to stand unsteadily, immersed in the ups and downs of emotions just now, before she recovered her senses, she encountered such a sudden change.In fact, it is no wonder that Qinglian was discovered. Before the emperor arrived, Qinglian was the only one who did not kneel alone, and the common people could see it. Besides, under the sky, even if the divine jade crown was hidden under the blue silk, it was difficult to avoid its bright light. So it was a matter of time before she was discovered, but no one thought that Qinglian would have such serious consequences after being recognized.Qinglian was surrounded by the crowd, Qinglian stood up straight, raised her head and showed a stunning face, Qinglian's forehead was shining brightly, although the people scolded him as a wicked evildoer.But Qinglian's peerless beauty is not like anything in the world, making people dare not get close to the blasphemy for a while, while Jiarui and Tong Jingyu watched Qinglian besieged from the tower, unable to escape amidst the boiling public grievances.

189、Help me...

The common people surged like a tide, and Jia Rui and Tong Jingyu were secretly shocked when they saw it on the tower. Qinglian was surrounded and could not get out, submerged in a wolf-like resentment.Although the people did not dare to go forward, they pushed and crowded each other, bursting into anger. This situation, if not careful, would turn into a stampede. If it really killed and injured the people like this, I am afraid that the civil uprising will no longer be inevitable. .Qinglian raised her eyes and watched the worried two people on the tower. Qinglian smiled back at Tong Jingyu, but looked at Jiarui coldly in the blink of an eye.At this moment, Qinglian's heart is still cold and hateful. Although just now Jiarui shed tears of guilt for her guilt, and wanted to return Tong Siming's loyalty and innocence at the expense of her own reputation, but in the end it was just an afterthought, and death cannot be resurrected. These are ultimately meaningless.Now that everyone is accusing her of being a wicked evildoer for the country, Qinglian is thinking about how Jiarui will deal with it. Now that she has the heart to repent, will she be able to clear herself up in front of the world and admit her prank back then? Deceit and that unlucky love!Seeing Qinglian's stern face, the people who besieged her had some scruples at first, the gloomy light on the divine jade crown was really unusual.But Qinglian didn't react much after scolding for a long time, and the people who got close gradually became more courageous, and began to pull Qinglian's clothes, and secretly raised her hand to hit her once or twice, but Qinglian didn't fight back, and let her do whatever she wanted. People rubbed each other, but their questioning eyes never left Jia Rui on the tower, unwavering.In such a chaotic scene, the reading of the Edict of Guilt cannot go on, but Jia Rui can only worry on the tower.Although the Imperial Forest Army rushed down the tower to maintain order, but the common people were besieged under the tower, so that no one could get in. The guards on the outside could only accelerate the rioting people to surround them in the middle, and could not save them at all.The scene became more and more chaotic, the people outside had already started fighting with the guards, Qinglian's situation can be imagined.Suddenly, someone raised his hand
