The Queen Mother twisted her face and rushed towards the tablet of the late Queen, trying to smash it.
However, as soon as she pounced forward, she missed the target. The tablet disappeared out of thin air, and her body fell on a pile of fireworks.
"What is this? These are..." She lowered her head and looked at the fireworks under her body, and old memories suddenly emerged.
The memory of fireworks awakened her mind.
"not good!"
The Queen Mother realized the danger and finally discovered that something was wrong.
She hurriedly stood up and stepped back, but it was too late.
The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, which quickly spread to the fireworks.
boom!
There was a loud noise, a strong burst of fire, and the fireworks exploded directly!
The Queen Mother's body flew into the air like a kite with a broken string being blown apart by fireworks. In her horror, she seemed to see the disfigured face of the late Queen, smiling at her.
"ah!"
The intense pain and fear made her scream horribly.
The empress dowager fell to the ground with a heavy bang, and her bones were almost broken.
She touched her face, which felt stinging and her hands were stained with blood.
The Queen Mother stood up in a panic, not daring to imagine what her face looked like at that moment.
The explosion of fireworks caused a fire that spread to all parts of the palace, setting the entire palace on fire.
The strong smell of fireworks choked her airways, making it almost impossible for her to breathe. The fire grew bigger and bigger, and broken beams and pillars fell down.
"I can't die here, absolutely not..."
The urge to survive dominated her body, and the Queen Mother rolled and crawled outside to escape.
"Someone come!"
"There's a fire! Help me!"
"Where have you all been? I'm going to chop off your heads!"
She wanted to call for help from the guards and palace servants, but no one showed up.
It was an empty palace. Not only was there no one else there, but the fire also burned her.
“Ah… no…”
The fire burned her palace dress. The empress dowager rolled on the ground, trying to put out the fire, but her skin and flesh were burned and exploded. Her screams of pain were so irritating that her ears could hardly bear it.
"I can't die... I can't die..."
She had no time to think about what was going on, but her desire to survive was always there, making her roll over and over to put out the fire on her body.
At this moment, she could only rely on all her strength to escape from this fire hole!
Rolling closer and closer to the door, the Queen Mother's fingers were covered with burns and bloodstains. Every time she grabbed the ground, it left a deep blood mark. She finally crawled towards the door.
The fire crackled behind her, and another beam broke with a heavy sound that made her heart tremble.
If she hadn't crawled out just now, she would have been burned to death by the fire or crushed to death by the weight.
All these things left her with lingering fears.
"Someone come!"
After crawling out of the palace, the Queen Mother shouted for help, but no one came near.
With burns all over her body, the Queen Mother tried desperately to crawl out, but she saw a bright yellow dragon robe appear before her.
The Queen Mother looked up and gradually saw the person in front of her.
"emperor?"
This is the puppet emperor she raised, the son of that bitch.
But at this moment, the Queen Mother didn't care about anything else. As if she had seen a life-saving straw, she desperately begged for help: "Your Majesty, please save me! I am in so much pain, please call the imperial physician!"
She thought that the emperor would still treat her, the empress dowager's words, as imperial decrees and obey her as before.
But she didn't wait for the emperor to make a move, and couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, what are you standing there for? Do you want to watch your mother die in pain? Have you forgotten what I taught you before?"
These words seemed to work, and the young emperor finally moved and squatted in front of her.
"The Queen Mother is my mother?"
The emperor asked softly.
The Queen Mother angrily said, "What else? I raised you, you must not forget my kindness!"
"Mother... your kindness..." Xiao Shengxing's voice was light, but the empress dowager suddenly heard sarcasm and resentment in it.
"You, what do you mean..." She suddenly remembered that she had just seen the tablet of the late queen, and suddenly she felt a little afraid of the person in front of her.
Bringing the letter in front of her, Xiao Shengxing displayed it before her eyes: "Queen Dowager, please take a good look at how you killed my biological mother and buried her in a snake's belly!"
When the empress dowager saw the letter, her heart sank, as if a basin of cold water had extinguished all the hope in her heart.
She stepped back in panic: "No, impossible, absolutely impossible..."
How did the emperor discover this thing?
He couldn't possibly...
Although she denied it, the emperor's expression in front of her made her understand that the emperor already knew the truth.
Grabbing the Queen Mother and making her face the letter, Xiao Shengxing read in a calm voice the last scene that recorded the late Queen being eaten by a snake on her back.
"Haha, let this bitch be eaten by a snake, let her die without a complete body, and let her soul never be reborn!"
"Ah! Don't make me listen!"
As he recited each sentence, the disfigured face of the late queen and the scene of her being eaten by a snake all appeared before his mind.
She seemed to see the late queen coming towards her, demanding her life...
The Queen Mother screamed and covered her ears desperately. Her entire face was disfigured by the fireworks and her whole body was burned, with not a single spot remaining smooth.
She was like an ugly madman, her twisted expression full of malice and fear.
"I want to go, I want to live!" The Queen Mother wanted to leave, but as soon as she took a step, she met a pair of snake eyes in horror.
Then, one, two, dozens, and finally hundreds of snakes appeared in front of her and surrounded her.
"Go away! Your Majesty, you can't do this to me!"
The snake was so hungry that it pounced on the queen mother and tore her flesh. The queen mother's heart and liver were torn apart and she was on the verge of death from the pain.
Xiao Shengxing looked at this scene coldly, with only ice in his eyes.
Just as the Queen Mother was dying, the snakes in front of her disappeared and the person was dragged out.
The Queen Mother opened her eyes, and the Emperor's conscience had awakened. She cried bitterly and played the emotional card, "Emperor, I knew you wouldn't be so heartless. I raised you. Hurry, let me go and treat your injuries..."
Looking at her, Xiao Shengxing's expression was icy and mocking. "I didn't mean to save you. I simply wanted to make you experience all the heinous methods used to frame my biological mother. I wanted you to know what it feels like to be devoured by a snake."
The feeling made the Queen Mother tremble, and the despair of being bitten by a snake just now made every strand of her blood almost freeze with fear.
“No, no!”
Nothing would ever end. This despair finally broke the Queen Mother's last string, and she went crazy.
"Come here, drag the Queen Mother into the cold palace and let her fend for herself there and spend her remaining years in peace."
The emperor's voice was cold, and the palace servants hurriedly dragged the man away trembling with fear.
After an unknown amount of time, the emperor spoke again.
"Propagate my decree: the Empress Dowager has passed away, and the whole nation is in mourning."
