It happened so suddenly that no one could react. For a moment, they all watched the Queen take action, and there was a look of determination and recklessness in the Queen's eyes.

It seemed that as long as she rushed over, the emperor would obediently stretch out his neck and let her pierce it.

What kind of belief is this?

Others didn't understand, but the queen knew it very well.

Dongfang Ye is dead. The emperor has Dongfang Shuo and the eighth prince in front of him. They both have the possibility of being appointed as the crown prince. No matter which of these two people is appointed as the crown prince, it will be extremely disadvantageous to her, and there will be no possibility of turning things around in her life.

But what if Xie Lin ascended the throne?

Xie Lin is her biological child. When Xie Lin ascends the throne, the current emperor will step down completely, and she, the queen, will not be deposed. She will become the empress dowager.

She is still the most noble woman in the entire Daqi.

Moreover, Xie Lin's men have already broken into the west gate of the palace. As long as she kills the emperor, she will have the final say in the entire palace. The possibility of Xie Lin successfully breaking in is greatly increased.

As for the emperor's death - history is always written by the victors, this is not a problem at all.

She killed the emperor to buy time and opportunities for Xie Lin, but also to save herself.

This is very risky, as it is equivalent to gambling her life and property, as well as the Yuan family behind her.

How dare she?

Everyone looked at this scene in disbelief, and couldn't understand how the queen dared to kill the king!

Others were in disbelief and were so shocked that they could not recover, but the queen was very clear-headed.

The last time the emperor was seriously ill and almost died, it gave her new ideas.

She had always been worried that the fact that Xie Lin and Dongfang Ye were twins would be exposed, so after the emperor's condition improved, she bribed a young eunuch beside the emperor to tamper with the immortality pills the emperor took, causing the emperor's body to weaken day by day until he finally died.

When the queen was detained by the eunuchs and the maids just now, she was thinking that the emperor had been taking the poison for a long time and had been hit by so many things tonight. He might have reached the end of his strength.

With the confidence from her calculations and the purpose of killing the king, the queen acted resolutely.

If she missed this chance, she would never have another chance. What awaited her was a tragic death in the palace.

How could she bear the fact that her years of planning and hard work would be completely shattered?

The queen stared at the emperor's throat, with the tip of the sharp hairpin pointed at his larynx. Her eyes were as sharp as torches, her mind was firm, and she had no doubt about the victory she was about to achieve.

The incident happened in a short time. Who would have been prepared for the queen being held captive? Who would have thought that the queen would dare to kill the king?

But, but, the world is always full of various accidents and unpredictable things.

Even though the regicide was the result of poisoning and calculation by the queen, and was carried out beyond everyone's expectations, the accident still happened.

The sharp tip of the hairpin stabbed towards him with murderous intent, but the emperor suddenly moved sideways at the critical moment and barely avoided the attack of the hairpin.

Behind him, two nimble eunuchs quickly appeared and captured the queen in no time.

The emperor kicked the queen in the abdomen suddenly, and kicked her away. She then fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood.

She was panting, her face was pale, and she was empty-handed. She was pressed to the ground, gasping for breath. She looked at the emperor in disbelief, like a defeated lioness, extremely embarrassed.

How could the emperor avoid the hairpin she stabbed at him so flexibly?

How could there be someone with such agile skills protecting the emperor?

How could he!!

Could it be that the emperor had been on guard against her from the very beginning! ?

The emperor strode forward, stood in front of her, pinched her chin, and looked into her eyes: "Last time I was seriously ill, was it you who did it?"

"What!" The queen looked puzzled.

The emperor said firmly: "I knew it was you who did it. You made me seriously ill, and then pretended to stop Xie Lin from bringing the miracle doctor to treat me, so that I would feel grateful to Xie Lin, trust only him, and promote him to prime minister! Queen, you really did it for your own child!"

Queen: "..."

Emperor: "So, ever since I was seriously ill last time, I have been on guard against the Queen and have not taken the Longevity Pills anymore. Sure enough, during this period of time when I stopped taking the pills, my health has improved a lot."

I see!

The emperor actually thought that she had poisoned him the last time he was seriously ill. In his pursuit of immortality, he even stopped taking the immortality pills.

No wonder he can remain so healthy and flexible after enduring all kinds of blows.

No wonder, when she was assassinating the emperor, two close guards appeared behind him.

It turned out that when everyone was immersed in the rebellion of Xie Lin and Chu Heyi, the two people behind the emperor had one and only one mission, which was to guard against her and capture her.

The queen smiled, and spots of blood fell on her jade-like chin, but it did not diminish her beauty at all.

She cried and laughed, saying, "The emperor and I have been childhood sweethearts, but it turns out that the emperor has been suspicious of me and guarding against me from the beginning."

The emperor said in a deep voice: "For the position of empress and crown prince, you first poisoned me and then tried to assassinate me, but you still blame me for doubting you and guarding against you? Morality is only useful to me, not to the empress?"

The queen was slightly startled, then her face turned pale and she smiled miserably.

"I lost, Your Majesty, you can kill me if you want!" After a while, the Queen sneered and said, "But before Your Majesty kills me, I want to ask you a question.

"If I had not sent Xie Lin out of the palace more than 20 years ago, and everyone in the world knew that the Queen Daqi had given birth to twins, how would the Emperor treat the three of us? Would I still be the Queen, and would Ye'er still be the Crown Prince? Would Xiaojing still be favored by her father?"

The emperor listened to her question, met her burning gaze, and then slowly released her chin.

"The twins of the royal family are indeed a bad omen. Even if you sent Xie Lin out of the palace in the past, you still can't avoid the cruel scene of brothers fighting each other and fighting for the throne today." After a while, the emperor said: "Take the queen away and give her poisoned wine."

The queen continued to smile, but her smile was bitter. She laughed until tears came out of her eyes and blood kept coming out of her mouth. The blood dripped down her chin and clothes, and then slid to the ground.

The ground was stained red with her blood.

The eunuch stepped forward, pulled her up from the ground without mercy, and dragged her out of the palace gate. The queen turned around and took one last deep look at her now cold child, the child she had chosen over Xie Lin.

Just at this moment, someone came in hurriedly, ran past the queen, and knelt in front of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Shu Xiao has brought his men to attack us. They will soon reach the East Palace. They are unstoppable and unstoppable."

"Also, news came from the South City Gate that Xie Lin and Chu Heyi brought their men in to attack..."
