Wu Zheng pointed at Lin Yuan and continued:
"Back then, Si Yuanwu repeatedly submitted memorials, criticizing the queen for interfering in government affairs and saying that the Western Dynasty could no longer be controlled by Feixian Pavilion."
"The Queen asked Si Mingcheng to steal Si Yuanwu's seal and imitate Si Yuanwu's handwriting to forge the correspondence between the Si family and the three major demon sects!"
"I know the Si family was wronged, but I can't do anything about it!"
"My eldest brother was the crown prince, but he was still killed by her. What can I do?"
Lin Yuan looked at Wu Zheng in disbelief: "Your Majesty?"
Wu Zheng didn't dare to look directly at Lin Yuan, but he felt the claws on his neck tighten. He hurriedly shouted:
"Queen, you have done something wrong. You can no longer hide it. Just admit it!"
Lin Yuan's face turned pale and her eyes became colder.
Si Minglan kicked Wu Zheng in the knee, forcing him to kneel down.
"Your Majesty!"
The Imperial Guards and the Golden Snake Guards below were shocked to see the emperor kneeling down.
Si Minglan pointed at the countless spirit tablets floating in the air and said coldly:
"Although you were not the main culprit, you were also one of the accomplices. If you confess to my Si family, I will save your life! Otherwise..."
Si Minglan's fox claws pierced Wu Zheng's neck half an inch, and blood suddenly gushed out.
Wu Zheng was horrified, and immediately kowtowed heavily towards the countless Si family spirit tablets in the air:
"Mr. Si, everyone in the Si family, I was too cowardly back then and didn't dare to resist the Queen. The Si family was wrongly accused!"
"Today I declare to the world that the great general Si Yuanwu is loyal to the country, and the Si family is full of loyal heroes!"
"Si Yuanwu's spirit tablet should be placed in the Imperial Ancestral Temple!"
"The spirits of the rest of the Si family should be placed in the Hall of Heroes, to be worshipped and revered by the people of the Western Dynasty forever!"
"Si Minglan, the orphan of the Si family, was granted the title of Marquis Zhenguo and inherited his father's previous title!"
"Your Majesty..." Thousands of soldiers stared blankly at the emperor who kept bowing to the spirit tablet in the Tianwu Hall.
For a moment, everyone was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
The ironclad case from twenty years ago was overturned by the emperor himself, and he even knelt down to confess his guilt.
And Si Minglan, the criminal who assassinated the emperor and empress, turned into a loyal and brave orphan and was granted a title of nobility.
So should we beat her now?
“Hahahaha, hahahaha!”
Si Minglan laughed loudly, her voice hoarse:
"Father, mother, eldest brother, second brother, third brother, Cui'er, Uncle Li, Aunt Zhou... your grievances have been cleared!"
Lin Yuan tightly grasped the Qingfeng sword in both hands, veins bulging on the back of her hands, and looked at Wu Zheng coldly.
"emperor……"
She was indeed dissatisfied with Si Yuanwu back then, but all she suggested to Wu Zheng was to seize power from Si Yuanwu and exile him.
But Wu Zheng said that Si Yuanwu was forming a clique in the court and had great power, so this was a good opportunity to get rid of the Si family.
It was also Wu Zheng's idea to let Si Mingcheng forge evidence of treason.
But what he didn't expect was that when it came to the moment of life and death, Wu Zheng put all the blame on himself.
Lin Yuan suddenly smiled: "Wu Zheng, I am very glad that I have never fallen in love with you, nor have I given birth to children for you."
Wu Zheng lowered his head in embarrassment, not daring to look at her. However, Si Minglan behind him squeezed his neck again:
"Since the Si family was wrongly convicted, what about the culprit? How should we deal with him?"
Si Minglan looked at Lin Yuan. Wu Zheng was startled. He slowly raised his head and also looked at Lin Yuan:
"Empress..."
Lin Yuan looked at him coldly.
Wu Zheng hesitated for a moment, and felt a sharp pain in his neck again. He hurriedly shouted:
"Empress Lin Yuan has controlled the government for many years. She slandered important officials for her own selfish interests and killed the entire Si family. Her crimes are heinous and unforgivable!"
"Pass on my oral order. Queen Lin Yuande is unworthy of the position. She is deposed from the position of queen, demoted to a ransomed person, and thrown into the Heavenly Prison to await her fate!"
The soldiers looked at each other.
Si Minglan shouted, "Why are you still standing there? Capture the Demon Queen!"
No one dared to move. Wu Zheng said, "I command you to capture... the Demon Queen!"
"hehe!"
Lin Yuan suddenly laughed, her eyes reddened:
"Wu Zheng, do you remember what you said when we got married?"
Wu Zheng's face was ugly, and he retorted: "Lin Yuan, what about you? Have you ever been sincere to me?"
"You cast a spell to confuse me and made me and the palace maids give birth to my eldest and second sons!"
"And that Wu Yiren was born to you and an outsider!"
"You said I was sorry for you, but did you ever really treat me as your husband?!"
The soldiers below were in an uproar.
"The Seventh Princess is not the Emperor's bloodline?!"
"The Queen secretly made peace with an outsider?!"
"The Demon Queen...it is indeed the Demon Queen!"
"Catch her!"
The Royal Guards had always been on Wu Zheng's side, and when they heard his words, they immediately shouted "Evil Queen".
The Golden Snake Guards looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they were loyal to the Queen, this was the first time they heard of the Queen doing such an improper thing.
At the moment, everyone was shaken and didn't know what to do.
"yes."
Lin Yuan's voice was cold, and tears fell from her eyes:
"I'm sorry for you. You're also secretly plotting to kill me. After all, the two of us are just a combination of interests."
"Since our intentions today are contradictory, I don't need to show mercy anymore!"
As soon as the word "love" came out, the Qingfeng sword was swung out, and the sword light flashed!
Si Minglan flew away, but Wu Zheng stayed where he was.
His eyes widened and he slowly raised his hand to touch his chest.
Crash.
A large amount of blood spurted out.
Wu Zheng looked at Lin Yuan in disbelief: "You, you, Queen... Xiao Yuan..."
Wu Zheng opened his eyes wide, uttered the last two words, and finally fell slowly to the ground, without a sound.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has passed away!"
"The emperor has passed away!"
The Royal Guards and Golden Snake Guards below screamed and cried.
"Lin Yuan, you have committed many evil deeds and are shameless. Today, you even killed the king with your own hands. You should be cut into pieces and tortured to death!"
Si Minglan shouted, "I am Si Minglan, the Marquis of Zhenguo. The regicide queen is here, why don't you kill her?!"
"Kill the Demon Queen and avenge His Majesty!"
"Kill the Demon Queen!"
Thousands of soldiers jumped onto the roof of Tianwu Palace and rushed towards Lin Yuan!
Lin Yuan snorted coldly, and the Qingfeng Sword suddenly flew out, circling in the air, and dozens of royal guards fell down.
"You are all soldiers of the Western Dynasty. I don't want to kill you. I will never be the Queen of the West again. Please retreat and don't come to die again!"
"You witnessed Lin Yuan killing the king. If you let her go, who among those present will survive?"
Si Minglan's voice was cold and stern. The soldiers stopped hesitating and rushed towards Lin Yuan one after another!
Lin Yuan wanted to fly away, but was stopped by the thousands of archers around her, so she could only start killing.
In an instant, countless Royal Guards and Golden Snake Guards fell from the roof of Tianwu Palace. The entire area in front of Tianwu Palace was flooded with blood and corpses were everywhere!
Lin Yuan's eyes were red, but the Qingfeng in her hand did not stop at all.
I can't die here, Zhou Lang and Yi Ren are still waiting for me!
Suddenly, a strange red shadow rushed in front of her.
Lin Yuan stabbed her in the right chest with a sword.
"Hehe, Lin Yuan, you can't leave!"
Si Minglan was stabbed, but her body still rushed forward, allowing the sword to pierce her body and approach Lin Yuan again.
puff!
Si Minglan's hands went straight into Lin Yuan's chest.
Lin Yuan's eyes widened, and she suddenly raised her left hand and slapped it on Si Minglan's lower abdomen.
Si Minglan spat out a mouthful of blood, which sprayed on the red clothes of the two people, bright and tragic.
Lin Yuan's eyes were cold and stern: "Si family orphan, you still can't kill me."
"Really?" Si Minglan's eyes glowed red.
Suddenly, Wu Tai approached silently from behind and stabbed Lin Yuan with a sword.
The sword was extremely accurate. It pierced from the back, penetrated the heart, and came out from the chest again.
…
"it's over."
"It's time to go to the other side."
In various places in the West Palace, Fang Xue, Wei Wan, Jiang Yin and others looked in the direction of Tianwu Palace, then left the palace and rushed towards Chang'an Palace.
