With one hand she heals, and the other hand she kills, the princess vows to rule the world!

Chapter 785: There are too many ruthless and unfortunate people in this world

The queen sat back on the armchair with a slightly lonely look, and she couldn't tell whether she was relieved or sad.

She smiled bitterly and recounted what happened that year.

"Back then, the eldest prince was poisoned and murdered. I was heartbroken and couldn't sleep at night. Later, I learned that the murderer was Concubine Fang. I was furious and wanted to kill her myself, but when I arrived at her bedroom, she had already been given a white silk by the emperor."

"At the time, the Third Prince was only twelve years old. He was there when I went there. He watched his mother hang herself in front of him, but he showed no emotion at all."

"Later, the Third Prince was sent to be the wife of Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu treated him well, and he would often smile at her gently."

"Every time I see his smiling face, I can't help but think of my child..."

"I've painstakingly raised my son for eighteen years... He's everything to me! He's the faith I rely on to survive... He's also my last lingering attachment to this world..."

So, later she went "crazy", hatred and madness eroded her sanity bit by bit, and eventually turned her into a person she didn't recognize at all.

She asked Yang Cai to find a chronic poison outside. If taken in small amounts for a long time, it would weaken the five internal organs of the human body and eventually lead to death from organ failure.

Because he died of organ failure, even the most skilled physician could not discover the secret.

The emperor had hired countless people to examine the third prince's body, but in the end, he found nothing, didn't he?

"I thought that with the death of the Third Prince, the hatred in my heart would finally dissipate."

"But in fact, that child's voice, appearance and smile appear before my eyes day and night, even more often than my own child."

"Until later, I discovered something that made me completely panic."

Back then, the poison that the eldest prince was poisoned with was a highly toxic substance called "Jianxueqing". This poison originated from the southwest and northern parts of the country. Concubine Fang was from Jiangnan and was a daughter of a governor's mansion, below the fourth rank.

That kind of poison is very rare in Jiangnan, almost non-existent! And Fangpin, who has been in the harem for many years, has no way or ability to obtain that kind of poison.

Later, she went to Sanhe Hall and found a palace maid who had served the third prince to verify something.

Back then, when the eldest prince was poisoned, the third prince had a conflict with the second prince, so Concubine Fang actually went to Xingqing Palace to deal with the matter.

Therefore, Concubine Fang had no chance and no conditions to poison the eldest prince at that time.

It was also at that moment that the Queen knew that she had killed the wrong person and committed a heinous crime...

After hearing this, Shu He asked in confusion, "How could Concubine Fang be convicted when she even had an alibi?"

The Queen smiled bitterly, with a hint of irony in her smile, "Yes, even with an alibi, Concubine Fang was still convicted."

"Princess Li, have you figured out something from this?" she asked Shu He with a hint of sarcasm on her face.

This matter is indeed a bit weird, and it seems that there are deeper secrets that have not been discovered.

"So, Your Majesty has been targeting Concubine Qing in the days that followed. Is it because Your Majesty believes that the person who killed the First Prince was actually Concubine Qing?"

Shu He connected all the things together and finally understood the Queen's strange behavior.

"Since Your Majesty thinks so, do you have any evidence?"

"Evidence?" The Queen sneered. "When the eldest prince was in trouble, the second and third princes had a conflict. Even Concubine Fang rushed over, but Concubine Qing was not in her own palace!"

"Do you know where she is?"

Having said this, the queen began to emanate a chilling aura uncontrollably, completely different from her previous peaceful appearance!

"She's in Kunning Palace!" The Queen stood up from her chair, her eyes blazing with hatred. "Later, I learned that Concubine Qing was the first person to discover the eldest prince was poisoned! She was the one who had him sent to Kunning Palace!"

"Princess Li, tell me, how did she escape suspicion in this matter?"

"After the death of the eldest prince, who is the most direct beneficiary?"

"Isn't that her son, Baili Mo Ran?!"

The queen became more and more agitated, and her whole body exuded an indescribable hostility.

But Shu He heard a loophole in her words, "So the Queen actually has no evidence that Concubine Qing killed the eldest prince, right?"

The queen didn't say anything, but the determination in her eyes told Shu He that she didn't need any evidence at all!

Because what happened later was exactly as she had guessed.

After the eldest brother died, the second brother received unprecedented attention and training, and even became the crown prince and heir to the throne recognized by all the officials of Tianqi!

Isn't this enough to prove something?

"Empress, you've already made a mistake once. Are you going to make the same mistake again this time?"

"Without any evidence, how can you conclude that Concubine Qing is the murderer of the eldest prince based on just a few guesses?"

Shu He walked up to her, his eyes filled with confusion, "Do you want to repeat the mistake of the Third Prince's death..."

Suddenly, Shu He seemed to realize something, and with a trembling and unbelievable voice, he asked, "Could it be that the Second Prince..."

Could it be that she was the one who planned the second prince's death?

This thought shocked her so much that she didn't even dare to say the following words.

The Queen saw what she meant and a sneer appeared on her face. "I won't make the same mistake twice."

"The death of the Third Prince is a knot in my heart, so I will no longer inflict the hatred in my heart on innocent people."

"But, just because I don't kill the second brother doesn't mean others won't."

"There are too many heartless and unfaithful people in this world. The only thing to blame is the second son, who was born into the royal family."

Shu He didn't know whether he should believe her. "If you weren't involved in the Second Prince's death, then why do you know so much about it? Furthermore, the two daggers, Tianxing and Diting, came from Qianji Valley. And from what I know, Your Majesty has a special relationship with the Valley Master of Qianji Valley."

Could it be that all this is just a coincidence?

The Queen saw the distrust in her eyes and sneered, "Murong Lian and I do have a close relationship, but his relationship with Baili Fengjue is also extraordinary! Back then, we were friends for life and death!"

So it's not surprising that she knew about this.

"I can honestly tell you that the only thing I did in this matter was to stand by and watch."
