Rebirth of the Beautiful Repaying Gratitude: Quick Transmigration and Childbirth System

Chapter 138: The Prime Minister vs. the Qinhuai Singer (22)

Emperor Ji Yuan nodded slightly, signaling the prince to continue.

Crown Prince Yuwen Hao took out a thick stack of evidence and presented it to the emperor with both hands.

Every page of paper was like a sharp blade, revealing the unknown crimes of the Empress Dowager and the evidence of her collusion with the imperial physician to poison her.

There is also detailed testimony and evidence that the late queen died of poisoning, which is irrefutable.

As he reviewed the evidence, Emperor Jiyuan's expression grew increasingly gloomy.

He clenched his hands into fists, his knuckles turned white from the force, veins bulged, and anger spread in his heart like wildfire.

He never expected that his beloved former queen was killed by her, and he even promoted her, a royal concubine, to be the next queen!

He was such a cruel person who had deceived me for nearly twenty years!

"You! How dare you..."

The Emperor pointed a shaking finger at the Queen, his voice hoarse from extreme anger.

The Queen Consort's face was as pale as paper. She fell to her knees and tried to defend herself in tears.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent! These are all fabricated evidences by the Crown Prince to bring me down!"

Crown Prince Yuwen Hao smiled coldly, took out an exquisite jade pendant from his arms, and gently placed it on the imperial desk.

"Do you recognize this jade pendant?"

The prince's words were cold and without a trace of emotion.

The queen looked carefully and saw that it was the one she had taken as a trophy.

"This jade pendant is the one my mother has worn since she was a child. But I found it in the secret room of your bedroom."

Emperor Ji Yuan was furious. He slammed the armrest of the dragon throne and shouted angrily.

"Queen, do you have anything else to say?"

The queen shook her head desperately, tears streaming down her face.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent! How could I do such a treasonous thing? It must be a frame-up!"

Crown Prince Yuwen didn't want to give her any chance to quibble.

"There is absolutely no falsehood in this evidence. Father, please avenge my mother and kill this vicious woman!"

"Come here! Take this vicious woman to the cold palace and depose her from the position of queen! I will make the final decision after I have investigated everything!"

When the Queen heard this, she was struck by lightning and screamed wildly.

"You can't destroy me! My mother clan won't agree! How can you touch me so easily?"

This sentence was like a fuse, completely igniting the anger of Emperor Jiyuan.

He stood up suddenly, pointed at the queen, and trembled with anger.

"You! How dare you mention your mother's family! I am the ruler of a country, how can I be threatened by your mother's family!"

"Do you know why I want to suppress Shuo'er? How can I allow my relatives to interfere in my politics?"

When the Empress Dowager saw that the Emperor was so heartless, she screamed in despair.

"Your Majesty, you are obsessed with that dead person. Because this sick child was born by that woman, you can't see Shuo'er!"

There was endless sadness and unwillingness in the voice.

Emperor Ji Yuan felt that he couldn't breathe and started coughing violently.

With trembling hands, he gave the order with difficulty.

"Depose the Queen and banish her to the cold palace immediately! No matter who pleads for mercy, she will not be pardoned!"

She collapsed to the ground, wailing in despair. Her voice echoed in the empty imperial study, but no one dared to step forward to help her.

The eunuchs looked at each other in bewilderment, but finally they mustered up the courage to step forward, lift up the queen, and drag her out of the imperial study.

Emperor Ji Yuan staggered a bit, then fell to the ground weakly with his eyes closed.

"Father!" Crown Prince Yuwen Hao was shocked and rushed forward.

"Call the doctor! Quick!"

The night poured down like thick ink, tightly wrapping the cold palace, making this secluded space even more gloomy.

The deposed queen was imprisoned in a simple house, which was dark all around. Only a few rays of moonlight shone through the dilapidated window frames, shining on her haggard face with messy hair.

The door suddenly opened silently, and Crown Prince Yuwen Hao walked in with several guards.

The flickering light of the lantern instantly illuminates the dark area.

"What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me?"

The deposed queen's voice was hoarse and filled with endless hatred.

But when she caught a glimpse of Crown Prince Yuwen Hao taking the medicine bowl from the servant, she understood.

"You can't kill me!" the deposed queen shouted hoarsely, the fear in her heart instantly reaching its peak.

"The emperor didn't even say he wanted to kill me, how dare you act on your own?"

Prince Yuwen Hao's voice was calm and cold, and the smile on his face looked particularly sinister in the dim light.

"I prepared this specially. My father is always soft-hearted, so I will make the decision for him."

The deposed queen struggled desperately, her eyes full of fear of death.

"You killed the queen of a country and murdered your mother. Aren't you afraid of being punished by the people of the world and the emperor?"

There was no fluctuation in the eyes of Crown Prince Yuwen Hao, only endless coldness.

"You? My stepmother? Are you worthy?"

Yuwen Hao's words were like ice spikes piercing the bones.

"You killed my mother and took advantage of my foolish father to commit evil for many years. Today is your retribution."

The Queen suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahaha...you won't live much longer. The throne will belong to my son sooner or later. My son will not let you go!"

Crown Prince Yuwen Hao's expression became even gloomier, and his voice seemed to seep out from an ice cave.

"So what if I don't live long? I will drag you all down to hell with me."

He waved his hand gently, signaling the guards to come forward.

The guards immediately stepped forward and clamped the Empress Dowager's arms tightly like an iron clamp, forcing her to be unable to move.

Pinching her cheeks and forcing her mouth open, the queen struggled desperately, but to no avail.

Crown Prince Yuwen Hao ruthlessly poured the medicine into her mouth with his own hands.

The Queen's eyes widened in disbelief.

Bitterness and venom intertwined, spreading in her mouth like a poisonous snake.

She coughed hard, trying to spit out the deadly liquid, but it was all in vain.

Crown Prince Yuwen Hao watched indifferently, without any emotion in his eyes.

"In the underworld, repent your sins."

"I will send your son down to find you soon."

Crown Prince Yuwen Hao said these two sentences coldly, then turned around and left the cold palace.

Finally, the Queen Consort stopped struggling and bright red blood oozed from all her orifices.

Her life came to an end in such a tragic way.

In this web of power and conspiracy that she had woven with her own hands, she also became a part of the victims.

The next day at Yun Mansion.

The table was filled with exquisite dishes, steaming hot and fragrant.

Yun Zimo held the silver chopsticks and carefully removed the fish bones, then put the fish meat into Liu Qianyu's bowl.

Liu Qianyu smiled slightly, picked up the fish and put it into her mouth.

Fresh and tender, not bad.

It tastes even better when served by such a handsome man.

Liu Hetai looked at his young master's sweet eyes and shuddered.

I don't want to eat with these two anymore.

I want to go to the kitchen with Chan'er to eat with Aunt Xianglan.

The sound of hurried footsteps broke the sweet atmosphere.

The servant hurried in to report.

"Master, the emperor urgently summons you. Please enter the palace immediately."

Yun Zimo frowned slightly, with an ominous premonition in his heart.

Liu Qianyu gently patted the back of his hand, giving him silent comfort.

"It's okay, go quickly."

Yun Zimo nodded, stood up, straightened his clothes, and looked at Liu Qianyu deeply.

He leaned forward and gently kissed Liu Qianyu on the forehead.

"I'll be back soon."

Yun Zimo said no more. He turned around and strode out of the mansion, taking Liu Hetai with him, and headed straight for the palace.
