The fifth prince's face was pale and looked a little dazed.

What is the Queen talking about?

Why doesn't he understand?

Princess Yongle's face turned pale as paper with fear, and she staggered back two steps.

No wonder... No wonder my mother wanted to kill my father. It turns out that my father had always intended to let her go to the Northern Frontier.

Luo Xiyao took a long time to finally understand the meaning of the queen's words. Then her hair stood on end and she looked at Xie Rong as if she had just met the emperor for the first time.

Good guy!

She originally thought that the emperor was so cruel to her cousin because he was afraid of the power of her Duke Zhenguo Mansion.

I didn't expect that he would be so cruel to every one of his children!

Even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs. This is not even the behavior of a human being. You are worse than an animal!

Luo Xiyao couldn't help murmuring as she thought this, and Shen Qionghua, who was standing next to her, heard it clearly.

Shen Qionghua was also shocked at this moment. She never expected Xie Rong to be so cruel.

No wonder the queen suddenly turned against him and reminded Xie Nanyuan.

As the saying goes, parents love their children and plan for them in the long run.

The queen had only one daughter, Princess Yongle.

As a knife in Xie Rong's hand, he has been lying dormant for many years, all for the purpose of ensuring that Princess Yongle can have a good future and escape from Xie Rong's control.

Now that he knows that Xie Rong is ungrateful and wants to send Princess Yongle to the northern border to marry, won't he go crazy?

If it were her, she would do the same.

This is really too much!

Shen Qionghua thought of her previous life again. Princess Yongle was also sent to the northern border by Xie Rong to marry a foreign princess shortly after the queen's death.

Could it be that in the previous life, the Queen also learned that Princess Yongle was going to marry and tried to stop her, and even used some things as a handle to threaten Xie Rong, which made Xie Rong kill the Queen and declare to the outside world that

She turned her head to look at Xie Nanyuan, who happened to look over as well. A complex expression flashed across his eyes, and then he looked away, his gaze falling on the shaky Fifth Prince.

"You actually knew that?" A look of surprise crossed Xie Rong's face, and understanding suddenly flashed in his sinister eyes. "No wonder... no wonder you dared to commit regicide today."

"Queen, please let me go. I promise...I promise not to send Yongle to the northern border." Xie Rong tried to negotiate with the queen.

But the queen had been deceived by Xie Rong so many times, how could she still believe him?

She sneered, "Do you think I'm still that young and ignorant girl who was fooled by your casual words?"

"I'm afraid you're so anxious that you want to tear my heart apart right now. If I let you go, won't you kill me right away?"

"Oh, by the way, aren't you curious about why the Duke of Zhenguo didn't go to the border and knew about your plan..."

"It's you!" Xie Rong interrupted the queen before she could finish her words, his eyes full of shock and resentment.

Xie Rong was extremely regretful at this moment. He should have strangled this bitch to death after Zhou died!

What's the point of keeping such a useless person? He even ruined his plan!

Seeing that Xie Rong had finally broken his plan, the Queen laughed heartily, "Hahahaha—yes, it was me. I was the one who warned them. Not only that, the National Defense Army was able to enter the palace unimpeded today because I provided the location of the secret passage."

"Xie Rong, Xie Rong, you lured Prince An into rebellion by claiming there was a secret passage in the palace. You didn't expect that I would take the opportunity to discover the location of the secret room."

"You thought all the soldiers who had been to the secret passage were yours, and you didn't dare reveal it to anyone, but you only left out me, who was always watching your movements."

"This is what you call bringing disaster upon yourself. Even God isn't on your side!"

"Bitch!" Xie Rong's face turned pale and blue.

But then he paused slightly, lowering his voice as if to show weakness, and said, "Queen, if you release me, I swear on my throne that I will never hold you accountable for this, nor will I send Yongle to the northern border."

"After I deal with these rebels, you will still be my queen, and Yongle will be the eldest princess of Dai Viet. I will grant her a fiefdom, food, and a very good marriage." Xie Rong vowed.

The Queen's eyes froze, as if she was a little shaken. "Really?"

"Of course it's true." Xie Rong saw that there was a play, and said with an extremely sincere expression, "Yongle is my daughter after all. I was blinded by greed before, but I won't do that again in the future."

Hearing this, the queen slowly curled up her lips into a smile.

Just when Xie Rong thought she was going to agree, the queen raised her knife and cut Xie Rong's blood vessels. The force was so great that the dagger even pierced Xie Rong's neck.

In an instant, blood spurted out and splashed all over the queen's face.

Xie Rong's eyes bulged out, his face full of fear and disbelief.

The Queen wiped her face, wiping away the blood that disgusted her so much, and laughed heartily, "You conscienceless beast! Do you think I'll still believe you?"

"Without you, I have other ways to protect my Yongle!"

"Your Majesty!" everyone shouted in horror.

They couldn't believe that the queen actually dared to kill the emperor!

The Queen killed the Emperor!

Some ministers who had been hiding were horrified when they saw this, and immediately stepped forward to question the queen.

But before he had taken a few steps, the queen's eyes turned and his head bumped into the long sword held by a royal guard.

The imperial guard was already terrified by Xie Rong's death, and the Queen's sudden action immediately made him loosen his grip on the sword and exclaim in horror, "No! No! It wasn't me!"

As the sword fell to the ground, the queen also fell to the ground.

"Mother!" Princess Yongle cried out in grief, struggling out of the eldest prince's hands who was still in a daze, and ran towards the queen.

Now, the Imperial Guards did not dare to stop her, and Princess Yongle reached the Queen smoothly.

Princess Yongle hugged the queen and pressed her hands on her neck, but she could not stop the blood from gushing out.

Tears streamed down his face as he sobbed, "Mother... Mother, please don't, Mother! Please don't leave me!"

"Didn't you say that you would always be with me from now on?"

"Imperial Physician! Call the Imperial Physician! Save my mother!"
