The Queen was so angry that she was shaking. If Lu Jinghuai had been Shen Qinglan's man from the beginning, it would be understandable for him to bite her at this time, but...

The Eighth Prince’s Consort!

She is the eighth prince's wife. As long as the eighth prince ascends the throne, she will be the new queen!

She and the Eighth Prince have a relationship where they share weal and woe!

How could she? How could she?

The queen was so angry that she staggered back two steps and almost vomited blood. Yun Lanxin hurriedly supported the queen with concern.

Compared to the Queen's anger, the Eighth Prince's eyes were always on Yan Ji, as if he didn't hear what the Eighth Prince's Consort and the others said. He said:

"My dear, how could you..."

The eighth prince admitted that he really doted on Yan Ji these days.

Yan Ji's gentleness was the most feminine he had ever seen, which fascinated him.

But, such a beauty actually... betrayed him?

This made the Eighth Prince find it a little hard to accept.

He also planned to make Yan Ji a royal concubine once he ascended the throne, just like Royal Concubine Yan, and give her exclusive favor!

"Oh my, shut up! Who is your beloved concubine? I feel sick just looking at you."

Yan Ji quickly interrupted the Eighth Prince, hugged her body and trembled for a while, then ran to Shen Qinglan's side, pulled Shen Qinglan's clothes and said:

"Princess, you have to compensate them."

The looks of these two faces made the Eighth Prince's eyes red. They looked as if they were abandoned.

Shen Qinglan smiled and patted the back of Yan Ji's hand, then looked at the Eighth Prince, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said:

"Eighth Prince, Queen, the evidence is irrefutable. What else do you have to deny?"

Huo Zhanting stood behind Shen Qinglan, listening to Shen Qinglan's words, and immediately echoed and said sternly:

"The Queen and the Eighth Prince poisoned His Majesty and colluded with Zhou Wang to usurp the throne. What crime should they be punished for?"

The ministers also reacted at this moment, and looked at the Queen and the others with a hint of astonishment and fear in their eyes.

They had never expected that the dignified and virtuous queen would dare to do such a cruel thing! It was truly terrifying!

If the world is taken over by the Queen and the Eighth Prince, will there still be a peaceful life?

Immediately, a group of ministers echoed the sentiment and demanded that the Queen, the Eighth Prince and others be brought to justice.

But the queen suddenly smiled, and her smile was a little eerie and a little crazy.

"Yes, I poisoned your Majesty. If your Majesty is not dead, how can my son succeed to the throne?"

No one expected that the queen would actually admit it!

Suddenly the hall was silent, so silent that one could only hear one's own breathing.

The Queen looked at Shen Qinglan and said with sincere admiration:

"Jiashun, oh, no, it's Shen Qinglan. I knew you would be the biggest stumbling block on my road to success, so I was reluctant to touch you. Now it has been proven that you are really amazing."

Shen Qinglan didn't say anything, but just looked at the queen quietly, with a hint of compassion in her eyes.

I'm afraid the Queen's life is not going to be easy.

Every day when I open my eyes, I start calculating. Are you tired?

But she asked for it!

The queen is capable, but she is not using her position in the right way. If she could use her plans to benefit the people, the people of the world would be so much happier.

The queen saw the pity in Shen Qinglan's eyes, her face immediately turned cold, she threw her phoenix robe and said unhappily:

"I don't need your pity! Do you think I lost? No! I didn't lose!"

She had wanted to let the Eighth Prince sit in that position openly, but unfortunately Shen Qinglan and the others had to obstruct him! It was really infuriating!

Fortunately, she had already made other plans. Since Shen Qinglan and the others insisted on forcing her, she could only resort to the worst possible strategy.

The Queen's eyes were cold, and she looked directly at Lord Wang and said:

"Father, send a signal and let the Zhenbei Army enter the palace. I will kill all those who know the truth!"

Kill them all, kill them all, and then no one will know the ugly truth.

Although this plan is a bad one, it is rough and effective!

She didn't want to take this last step, but unfortunately Shen Qinglan forced her to do so!

Lord Wang nodded calmly and gave Wang Yu a wink.

Wang Yu understood and excitedly picked up the signal in his hand and sent it out.

Watching the flare rise, Wang Yu sneered at Shen Qinglan and the others and said:

"Humph, it's just a little trick. Wait until our people arrive and see how arrogant you can still be!"

Wang Heng's death made Wang Yu hate everyone in the Zhanwang Mansion equally, including Shen Qinglan. Oh no, it should be that he hated Shen Qinglan the most.

He heard from the Queen that everything was controlled by Shen Qinglan.

Now, he is determined to avenge his elder brother.

The ministers were so frightened that their legs went weak.

Is the Queen crazy?

The ones who provoked her were Shen Qinglan and the others. Why, why were they dragged along these ministers to be buried with her?

It was clearly the Queen who did something wrong, but she wanted others to die. What's the logic behind this?

The queen looked at Shen Qinglan, trying to find some fear and terror on Shen Qinglan's face.

Unfortunately, even at this point, Shen Qinglan remained calm and even looked at her with a hint of mockery.

It looked like he was not afraid of her army outside the city at all!

However, Huo Zhanting's men were already exhausted and there was no way they could match the powerful Zhenbei Army!

What exactly does Shen Qinglan rely on?

The queen frowned slightly, pursed her lips and looked at Shen Qinglan, feeling a bad premonition in her heart.

"Empress, the Zhenbei Army, I'm afraid it's not your Zhenbei Army, right?"

"How is that possible? If the Zhenbei Army doesn't belong to me, then whose is it?"

The Queen was a little excited, and her voice cracked.

But just as she finished her words, a weak but familiar voice suddenly sounded, interrupting the Queen's words:

"Zhenbei Army, of course it's my Zhenbei Army!"

When these words were spoken, everyone's heart skipped a beat and they subconsciously looked at the person who spoke.

Emperor Jingren, who should have passed away, was standing in front of the hall at some point.

Although his face was full of fatigue, he did not look like he was dying. Wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, he still looked energetic.

Emperor Jingren looked at the Queen with ruthless murderous intent, and then, supported by Li Fude, he walked in step by step.

The Queen and the Eighth Prince watched as Emperor Jingren, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, walked past them with his guards and walked step by step up to the dragon throne on the high platform.

Emperor Jingren looked at the Eighth Prince standing beside him, his old face showing a hint of sarcasm, and said:

"This position is not yours, get out of the way."

The Eighth Prince was so frightened that his legs went weak and he staggered backwards.

The queen reached out her hand just in time and supported the eighth prince, preventing him from falling to the ground.

The Queen's face and lips were as pale as paper. She looked at Emperor Jingren with a vague look in her eyes. After a long while, she smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, you are not dead?"
