"Empress, I have to say this. Although you are hateful for murdering Concubine Chen and the Fourth Prince, I feel that you are actually quite pitiful when I think about how you have been keeping the truth from the Sun family and raising their children for so many years. There is a saying that there must be something pitiful about hateful people. When I first learned the truth, I gnashed my teeth in hatred, but now it seems quite boring..."

The emperor's light words were like countless sharp knives stabbing into the queen's heart. Her lips could not stop trembling, and she wanted to speak but no sound came out.

Blood gushed out of the prince's mouth again. He grabbed the queen's hand with difficulty and said, "Mother, save me, I don't want to die..."

The queen looked down and saw the prince suddenly screaming and pushing him away, while she kept backing away.

The queen retreated while shouting, “Don’t call me mother. You are not my son. My son was killed by your Sun family. That bastard Sun Yaonian deceived me so much. Mother, you are really a good wife to father. For the sake of the Sun family, you even killed your own grandson. You thought your plan was perfect, but now it’s all in vain. Hahahaha… retribution… this is retribution… Father and mother, did you think that by killing my son and letting your grandson become the crown prince, you could successfully ascend to that position? Now he is going to die anyway, hahahaha… he is going to die… hahaha… it’s really retribution… retribution…”

The prince was pushed to the ground so suddenly. He didn't understand why things turned out like this. He was not his father's son, so how could this happen? He tried his best to crawl towards his mother, but to no avail.

He looked at his mother who was retreating, stretched out his hand and wanted to speak, but the blood that kept flowing out of his throat made it impossible for him to utter a word.

Finally, he lost his support and his hands fell down. He breathed his last, but his eyes were wide open. He died with his eyes open.

The queen stared at the prince's body and laughed wildly, "Liar... The Sun family are all liars...

Her father was so cruel! For his and his brother's ambitions, he was willing to kill her newborn child, and she was kept in the dark for twenty years.

She should have discovered it earlier. How could it be such a coincidence? Her own child died, but her brother's son was brought into the palace by his mother. Why didn't she discover such an outrageous coincidence? ? She was so stupid.

No, she trusted her mother too much. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. She never dreamed that her mother was more vicious than a tiger. Just because of the Sun family's ambitions, she became their stepping stone.

For so many years, she could not tell anyone about her son's death and she didn't even dare to carve a tablet for him. No one knew the pain she went through.

Now I tell her that her child didn't die but was strangled to death by his grandmother. It's ridiculous, too ridiculous...

The emperor looked at the mad queen and didn't know what this woman wanted.

"I don't understand why you have to pick on the Imperial Concubine and the Fourth Prince. They have never done anything to let you down over the years. Even the Imperial Concubine has always been respectful to you, the Queen, and has never overstepped the line..."

The queen looked at the emperor and said sarcastically: "Respect and courtesy? I don't care at all. The more Jiang Qingyan is humble to me, the more I want her to die. I am the queen, not only do I not get the favor of my husband, but I can't even burn some paper money for my own child on his annual memorial day. I can only bear this heart-wrenching pain alone in the dark night. But Jiang Qingyan not only gets all the favor from you, Your Majesty, but you also openly favor her son. Why should I endure this? Why? I am not willing..."

The emperor thought the queen's idea was ridiculous. He and her did not have the friendship of childhood sweethearts, nor were they in love with each other, let alone the affection between them. He married her only because he was forced by his brother's request. How could there be any love between them?

The emperor reminded the queen, "Back then, you and my elder brother claimed to be in love with each other, but later, my elder brother made a mistake and was demoted to a commoner, and your Sun family immediately begged the late emperor to cancel your engagement with the deposed prince. In the past, I thought you had to marry me for the benefit of your family, but later I really understood that you just wanted to be the empress one day. So I gave you the position of queen you wanted, and no one has ever shaken your position as the empress over the years. Isn't what I gave you enough? It was because I trusted you too much that I allowed you and the Sun family to conceal the truth so easily for more than 20 years..."

Seeing the emperor's regretful expression, the queen laughed and said: "Do you think that just being the queen is the greatest gift to me? From the beginning to the end, I have always wanted your love. You don't know that I was interested in you, not your brother. But it was your brother who was the crown prince at that time, so my father forced me to get close to your brother. You don't know how painful it was for me at that time. Fortunately, God has mercy on me, the crown prince made a mistake, and finally you became the crown prince. The Sun family tried their best to win the crown prince for me. I was the happiest person in the world when I was appointed as the Consort of the Imperial Concubine. I had power, a beloved husband, and the splendor and wealth of my mother's family. But Your Majesty, you only favored that little bitch Jiang Qingyan, and only treated me, the Empress, as a routine matter. I finally gave birth to the eldest son, and I thought everything would be fine in the future. But the prince died at birth. I was so unwilling to accept this, especially when Jiang Qingyan gave birth to a son. How could I bear this?"

The emperor was so angry that he almost laughed when he heard her making such unreasonable remarks. It was his fault. At that time, he really felt sorry for Sun Jingxi whose reputation was damaged because of her brother's involvement. His brother also begged him to take care of Sun Jingxi before his death, so he asked his father to marry the daughter of Grand Tutor Sun.

Now it seems that all the consequences today are due to the cause he planted when he was soft-hearted. Now it is time to understand it all.

"The Queen was jealous and had been coercing Doctor Xu to murder Concubine Chen and the Fourth Prince for many years, together with Grand Tutor Sun's family. Now that her plot has been exposed, she tried to poison me while I was dining with her, but the Prince drank the poison by mistake and died on the spot. The Queen's evil deeds are too numerous to list. I have bestowed upon her a white silk silk, and the entire family of Grand Tutor Sun will be executed. The rest of her relatives, the males will be exiled, and the females will be enslaved for generations..."

The emperor stood up and walked out, issuing orders as he walked. The empress behind him was strangled tightly by the eunuch with a white silk scarf. The empress struggled continuously, pulling the white silk scarf around her neck with both hands.

The emperor's back became increasingly blurred, and he finally closed his eyes in resentment...
