After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

Princess Qingping's face was as cold as frost, with a hint of disdain at the corner of her mouth, "No? Then I will be the first one, what can you do to me?" Her voice was crisp and firm, with unquestionable majesty.

Lu Lingyuan's face turned pale, her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were full of worry and helplessness. "Qingping!" There was a hint of blame in her voice, but she didn't know what to do.

Princess Qingping stared at Lu Lingyuan with a sharp gaze, without the slightest wavering in her eyes. "Sister-in-law, you don't have to persuade me. I have made up my mind. I have committed a serious mistake and will accept the punishment of the law. But before that, I must divorce my husband." Her tone was firm, every word was powerful, and there was no sign of retreat on her face. Instead, her determination made people feel awe.

"Besides, Li Jichuan, as a royal consort, actually dared to keep a concubine and even have an illegitimate child. Such behavior is simply a disgrace to the royal family and cannot be tolerated by the law of the country!" After Princess Qingping finished speaking, she flicked her sleeves and pushed back several steps the palace maid who was trying to stop her. There was a playful smile on her face, as if she was about to stage a wonderful show.

"I will take full responsibility for the mistakes I made and will never shirk my responsibility. But he must also pay the price for his actions!" Princess Qingping's words were full of determination and ruthlessness. Her eyes flashed with an icy light, as if she wanted to devour Li Jichuan completely.

Upon hearing this, Li Jichuan's face turned pale as paper, his legs softened, and he trembled like a sieve. His clothes were soaked, cold sweat dripped down his back, and his eyes were full of fear and despair.

Suddenly, he thought of the princes-in-law of the previous dynasty who had been disgraced by scandals. Their end was all extremely miserable, and some were even worse, being beheaded directly.

Thinking of His Majesty's recent violent actions, he became even more frightened.

Li Jichuan couldn't help but shudder, as if he had already felt the shadow of death approaching quietly.

"Your Majesty has arrived!" Suddenly, Rong An's voice came from outside.

Lu Lingyuan breathed a sigh of relief and slowly stepped forward to salute, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

"Queen, please don't be so polite!" Xiao Chengji helped him up and then cast a cold gaze on Li Jichuan.

"As a royal consort, you did such a thing, and yet you still have the nerve to go to the palace to appeal for justice!" Xiao Chengji said in a cold voice.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Li Jichuan trembled and said in a trembling voice.

"You, the Duke Xin's Mansion, have truly impressed me. Come here, the prince consort was disrespectful to the princess and defied the imperial authority. You will be immediately demoted to a commoner and exiled to Lingnan!" Xiao Chengji said expressionlessly.

Li Jichuan was so frightened that he begged for mercy with a pale face: "Your Majesty, please spare my life... Your Majesty, please spare my life! I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong..."

Before he could finish, the man was dragged away.

Princess Qingping's face showed no emotion at all, but she immediately laughed out loud, "Hahahaha..."

Xiao Chengji looked at her and said coldly, "You have violated the law and taken human life lightly. You are unworthy of being a princess. I will depose you today, take back Tangmu County, and remove you from the royal family."

"Your Majesty..." Lu Lingyuan's face was filled with shock. She was about to plead for mercy, but Xiao Chengji raised his hand to stop her.

Princess Qingping was very calm when she heard this, as if she had expected this result.

"I obey your order, thank you, my emperor brother!" Princess Qingping bowed slowly.

Xiao Chengji waved his hand, and Rong An stepped forward and took her away.

Lu Lingyuan frowned and looked at her with a complicated expression, "Qingping..."

"His Majesty……"
