Speaking of which, it was really ironic. Fu Xiuyi initially said ambitiously that he wanted to live and die with Ming Qi and would definitely fight alongside his soldiers to the end. As long as the capital was not destroyed, he would still be the emperor of Ming Qi and would not surrender.

However, at the last moment, for some reason, he changed his mind and wanted to secretly run away. Perhaps he still had the intention of making a comeback one day.

Little did he know that his trusted aides had seen through the situation in Ming QI betore mm. wnen tney round out tnat Fu Xmuyl wanted to escape, tney were furious.

Speaking of which, Fu Xiuyi was caught in his own trap. Back then, he had either spent money or used beauty to rope in useful people. Fu Xiuyi only cared about what benefits these people could bring him, and didn’t care about their backgrounds at all. Among these people, there were bandits and pirates. They followed Fu Xiuyi because they wanted to see if Fu Xiuyi could provide them with the treasures and women they wanted and do something great with him.

Now that Ming Qi was falling, Fu Xiuyi actually wanted to escape. How could they let him do that?

Among the subordinates, the brave ones thought of a way to kidnap Fu Xiuyi to the city tower and personally shot him to death. In the end, they beheaded Fu Xiuyi to ask Xie Jingxing for credit and hope that they could be spared a life.

Every step Fu Xiuyi took was carefully planned and filled with schemes, but he had probably never thought that he would end up like this. He didn’t die heroically with his men, and nor did he manage to escape and plan for a comeback. Instead, he was shot to death by the people he had spent a lot of money to rope in.

The last thing he saw was the young man on the tall horse below the city tower. He held the reins and looked up lazily. As usual, he was cynical, and his eyes were filled with disdain.

However, before Fu Xiuyi could have a moment to say his last words, his life ended.

In the face of his demise, he still didn’t understand which wrong step he had taken that led him to this day.

Below the city tower, Xie Jingxing clicked his tongue and said, “Fu Xiuyi is really something. Even his trusted people betrayed him.”

“People roped in with money and women won’t be loyal for long.” Gao Yang smiled disdainfully. “Let’s go into the city!”

“By the way,” Ji Yushu said, “Princess Rong Xin and the Su family have been saved. Now…”

Xie Jingxing’s expression did not change. “Protect them. As for the rest, let them be.”

When Shen Miao received the news, she was in a daze for a long time.

She did not expect her enemies in her previous life to die so easily. However, she felt that it was only right.

Fu Xiuyi was just reaping the fruits of his evil deeds. Consort Mei wanted to use the tiger and was devoured by the tiger. They were always using their money and beauty to exchange for what they wanted. On the surface, they seemed capable, but in the end, they wouldn’t last long.

That was why Fu Xiuyi was betrayed by his aides in the end, and that was why Consort Mei died at the hands of the man who doted on her..
