Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

As night falls, the Qianqing Palace is brightly lit.

There were still a few imperial doctors guarding the palace gate, busy decocting medicine for Emperor Ming, and they were a little surprised to see the empress coming.

Since the death of the crown prince, the queen has fallen ill and has not appeared in public.

After the eunuch went to ask Emperor Ming for instructions, he hurried back to the palace gate.

"Your Majesty understands the Empress's intentions, but it is already late today and the Empress has just recovered. It is not appropriate for her to attend to the sick. Your Majesty asks the Empress to go back and rest early."

The queen's expression remained unchanged, but her tone was very sincere.

"Please tell the eunuch again. I dreamed of Xuan'er today. He wanted me to convey something to His Majesty..."

The eunuch was shocked. It seemed that the Queen was determined to meet Emperor Ming today and even brought up the deceased Crown Prince. So the eunuch hurriedly turned around and went into the hall to report.

After a moment, the eunuch replied again.

"Your Majesty, please come in."

The queen sneered, "Thank you, eunuch."

The Qianqing Palace, which usually burned precious incense, was now filled with the smell of medicine mixed with a hint of corruption.

Emperor Ming was half lying on the bright yellow bed. The original majesty and solemnity on his face had completely disappeared, leaving only paleness and weakness.

Emperor Ming half-closed his eyes and glanced at the empress with a look of boredom.

"It's so late, the Queen came to see me, what's the matter?"

"I heard that Your Majesty was not feeling well. I was worried and wanted to come and see you. Also, when I was taking a nap today, Xuaner came into my dream and asked me to thank Your Majesty."

"Oh? What is Xuan'er thanking you for?"

"Of course I want to thank Your Majesty for avenging him and killing the person who killed him."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Ming frowned and looked at the Queen. Noticing that she was dressed in gorgeous attire, he felt somewhat confused.

"Killed Xuan'er? Xuan'er died of illness, where did the person who killed him come from?"

The queen laughed, and her bright makeup looked strange in the candlelight.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. Xuan'er was poisoned to death by Nan Huaishuo, that wicked man. Now you have avenged him. I, Xuan'er, thank Your Majesty on behalf of you."

After saying this, the queen knelt down and bowed deeply.

Emperor Ming's brows furrowed even more.

"So that's how it is. Nan Huaishuo was originally executed for killing the imperial official Xu Ce. I didn't expect that he would dare to poison the crown prince. It was my negligence that failed to avenge Xuan'er early on."

The queen said nothing, but walked to the bed on her knees with a sad look on her face.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember what you said when you asked to marry me?"

Hearing this, the vigilance in Emperor Ming's eyes faded a little. It seemed that the Queen was still immersed in the pain of losing her son and had not recovered.

"Naturally remember."

At that time, the Queen's mother's family was extremely powerful, but she was fascinated by the unknown Emperor Ming. Emperor Ming was just an unpopular prince at the time. He urgently needed the support of the Queen's mother's family. Therefore, when he got along with the Queen, he said good things to her without asking for any money.

"I remember your majesty once said to me that you would never leave me, sleep with me in life and be buried with me in death, and never betray me..."

"Your Majesty once knelt before my father and said that as long as I gave birth to a prince, the throne would definitely belong to my son in the future..."

Emperor Ming's face turned ugly. Now he was the high and mighty emperor, and almost all the people in the empress's family were dead. When talking about these trivial things in the past, Emperor Ming felt very ashamed.

"What does the Queen have to say?"

The Queen sneered at the displeasure in Emperor Ming's eyes.

"After Xuan'er died, I invited all the doctors who had treated him and prescribed medicine for him over the past ten years to Kunning Palace and broke their bones one by one until they were willing to tell the truth."

!!!

Emperor Ming was shocked. No wonder more than a dozen imperial doctors fell ill and could not come to the Imperial Hospital not long ago. He originally thought it was an epidemic, but he didn't expect it was the Queen!

"I know that the inner guards monitor everything in the palace, so everyone was beside my bed in the bedroom, one after another, with their mouths covered, and their bones were broken!"

"You are crazy!"

Emperor Ming roared and tried to stand up, but was held down by the Queen.

"Is your concubine crazy? Hahaha, then Your Majesty, who tampered with the medicine of his own son and caused Xuan'er to be sick and frail for more than ten years, is he crazy too?!"

"You! What nonsense are you talking about, you crazy woman, come...ah!"

Just as Emperor Ming was about to order the empress to be dragged away, the empress covered her mouth. The mad empress was extremely strong and Emperor Ming could not break free for a while.

"Everyone in my family died for Your Majesty, but now Your Majesty has killed my son with his own hands. I will not resign myself to this!"

The queen was afraid that the imperial guards would appear at the next moment, so she quickly took out a porcelain bottle from her arms and poured the black liquid inside on Emperor Ming's bed. She then took out a fire starter and set the bedding on fire with a swish.

"We will share the same bed in life and the same grave in death. Your Majesty must fulfill one of your vows to be worthy of me!"

The flame suddenly grew larger when it touched the black liquid, and the huge flame instantly engulfed Emperor Ming on the bed.

Tung oil!

The damn crazy woman actually wanted to burn him to death!

The burning pain caused Emperor Ming to instantly burst out with a strong desire to survive. He threw away the burning bedding and wanted to jump off the bed.

But he didn't notice that the queen's court dress, which was a mixture of bright yellow and red, was also burning.

The court dress stained with tung oil caught fire the moment the queen set the bedding on fire, instantly engulfing the queen.

The Queen, filled with intense hatred, pounced upon Emperor Ming.

Emperor Ming, who was about to get out of bed, was pounced upon by the burning empress and was instantly ignited by the flames.

"Ahhhh!"

The heart-wrenching screams of Emperor Ming spread throughout the inner court of the imperial palace...

……

As the sky began to brighten, the sound of national mourning bells could be heard throughout the capital.

Lin Yushu put on the mourning clothes she had prepared earlier and adjusted her collar in front of the mirror.

"Miss, how could you know in advance that His Majesty..."

Chuntao didn't dare to say anything more. Besides, her young lady might be suspected of plotting to murder the emperor.

"I just know my enemies better, so I can guess what they might do next."

The Queen's experiences are somewhat similar to Lin Yushu's own, yet also different.

After Emperor Ming took advantage of the Queen's family, he did not abandon the Queen. Instead, he treated the Queen and the Crown Prince well in public, leaving himself with a good reputation.

When the queen finds out that all this is a scam, she will inevitably fall into madness after losing her only son.

Now that Emperor Ming and Nan Huaishuo have died one after another, the only one who can inherit the throne is Xuan Yue’s son, Nan Rongjing’s half-brother, the seventh prince, Nan Fuchen.

Great Zhou is about to start a new pattern.
