"But Your Majesty, the sky is really about to fall!" Mrs. Wang exclaimed excitedly.
"Sister-in-law, what's going on?"
"Empress, our Wang family is wholeheartedly committed to supporting the Crown Prince, so everything we do is for his benefit, right?"
"Of course." Queen Wang said seriously, "The Wang family is my mother's family, and they are the closest and most trusted supporters of the prince. So if there is anything, just tell me, sister-in-law."
"I heard that Your Majesty..." Madam Wang took a deep breath, but still staring into the Queen's eyes, she lowered her voice and spoke word by word, "I heard that Your Majesty... poisoned the Crown Prince."
Queen Wang's eyes instantly turned cold! She stared at Madam Wang intently!
There was anger on her face, but not much shock.
Madam Wang looked at the Queen in shock: "You, you, knew about this a long time ago?!!!"
Queen Wang rubbed her brows and said, "What nonsense! How could such a thing happen?"
"No--"
Although Mrs. Wang didn't quite believe it at first, after seeing the Queen's expression just now, she believed it instantly: "Your Majesty, your expression just now clearly tells me that you know about this!"
The Queen didn't deny or admit it. She just stared at Madam Wang and asked, "Where did this news come from? How did it reach the Grand Tutor's Mansion?"
"Two people were talking by the wall, and your eldest brother overheard them—and the more he thought about it, the more he felt... so he went to consult with the old man." Madam Wang felt a chill run down her spine. "The old man sent me to the palace to ask you about this."
Originally, my family was skeptical, but now——
Mrs. Wang suddenly believed it.
"Really? Is this true?" Madam Wang stared at the Queen. "Did His Majesty really poison him? The reason why the Crown Prince...was it really His Majesty? Why?!"
The queen stared at Mrs. Wang!
Now that things had come to this, hiding it was impossible. So, the Queen took a deep breath, suppressed all her anger, and then said, "Because, Your Majesty feels threatened!"
"So, it really is Your Majesty..."
"Yes!" The queen clenched her fists, with fire burning in her eyes!
She watched helplessly as His Majesty poisoned the prince, and had to act hypocritically in front of the emperor, pretending to know nothing... God knows how much she hated him every day!
Mrs. Wang gasped and almost fainted.
"Threats, threats... just because of threats... even a tiger won't eat its own cubs!" Mrs. Wang clenched her fists!
"How can a son be more important than the throne?" The Queen sneered. "Besides, it's not like he doesn't have other sons."
The second prince, the third prince, the fourth prince... With so many princes eyeing him covetously, does the emperor lack sons?
"And—" Queen Wang looked at Madam Wang, "Old Master is still alive, my eldest brother is the Grand Tutor in the imperial capital, my second brother is a local lord in the frontier, and my third brother is even more powerful... Add to that the instigation of some ulterior motives, and how could the Emperor not be suspicious of the Wang family?"
Mrs. Wang trembled a little: "This, this, this..."
Queen Wang hated a lot, but the person she hated the most was the Dark Emperor!
If possible, she really wanted to pull down the Dark Emperor regardless of anything. Then she would sit on the throne of the Queen Mother. Who would dare to be arrogant in front of her?
Queen Mother...
Thinking of this, the queen's eyes lit up!
"Sister-in-law, when you return, have your brother come to the palace as soon as possible. I have something to tell him."
Mrs. Wang nodded.
She knew that things had changed.
