    Chapter 83 Exposed

    The three of us each occupied a corner, facing each other in a triangle shape. Of course, Igland was sitting on the ground unable to get up, and his momentum had already been completely lost.Uther’s eyes turned from her to me. Seeing that my sitting posture was flawless and frighteningly calm, he narrowed his sharp eyes and looked away again.

    “It was she who betrayed you?” He finally spoke up, in a slow tone: “So, it was you who planned it? Who else is this ‘you’?”

    Igraine choked, and then he realized how much information he had revealed in his previous sentence.She turned pale and shook her head repeatedly: “No… no… we… no, I, I didn’t…”

    She was speaking incoherently, trying in vain to explain under Uther’s calm gaze.And I sighed secretly: Why, why doesn’t she understand?Everything is over. If she hadn’t shouted those few words just now, there might still be room for maneuver, or she might still be able to blame everything on me, but she has already let the only opportunity slip away. By this time, she is finished. If she continues to beg for mercy like this, it will only make her look even more ugly.

    Sure enough, her panicked voice seemed particularly abrupt in the silence. Not only were Uther and I indifferent, but even the servants standing next to her didn’t change their expressions. They looked at their queen sitting on the ground. Those eyes were so ruthless, as if she was already a dead person.

    Igland was frightened by the weird atmosphere in the room. She looked around. The servants who stood upright and looked like stone statues were like the executioners of her death sentence.She panicked and threw herself at Uther’s feet.

    “No! Your Majesty! I never thought of hurting you! You promised me that you would always be your queen, why should I betray you! It’s her! She did everything!” Igland suddenly pointed at me and shouted at the top of his lungs: “It was she who wanted to return to Sodom and enjoy the glory and wealth, so she conspired with the spies sent by Sodom to kill His Majesty!”

    I was startled and looked over involuntarily, only to see her staring at me with red eyes and a twisted face. She looked so scary, almost like a demon. If it hadn’t been for the dining table, she would have jumped over and tore me into pieces.

    “It was Sodom who sent people to look for her and gave her this box of lipstick! He said that as long as she could poison His Majesty, he would take her back to Sodom immediately! Your Majesty, don’t be fooled by her appearance. She has seduced my father since she was a child, and I saw her messing up the palace with my own eyes! The assassin from Sodom said that my father has promised that as long as she returns, all her requests will be fulfilled! Your Majesty! Please believe me!”She is a liar and should be executed immediately!”

    I listened blankly to her frame-up of me, with mixed feelings in my heart.I had known that this biological mother hated me, and I had almost died at her hands several times, but now listening to her words, I still feel an unexpected sadness in my heart.

    The tiger’s poison does not eat its seeds, and the she’s poisonous is not even as good as livestock.

    Uther looked nonchalant, after listening to Igraine’s accusation, he raised the corners of his lips and said:

    “Did she take the lipstick? Then why, was this box found from you?”

    Igraine’s expression suddenly changed and he blurted out: “No…it’s impossible. I’ve already…”

    She stopped suddenly and swallowed the next words.Uther fiddled with the box in his hand and slowly took in what she said: “You had already disposed of your box of lipstick ten days ago. The poison inside was buried in the flowerpot in your room, and the lipstick box was thrown into the pond in the garden… right?”

    Every time he uttered a word, Igraine’s face turned paler. She looked at Uther’s face tremblingly, as if looking at a monster.Uther’s tone remained unchanged and he continued to speak. His voice was low, magnetic, and full of temptation. At this moment, it created such a strong contrast and seemed extremely cruel:

    “A month ago, four assassins from Sodom contacted you and asked you to help them sneak into the palace. You worked hard to get someone in. This lipstick was originally given to you, but you didn’t even have a chance to see me, so you forced your way into my bedroom, but still couldn’t succeed. You were afraid that you would be abandoned by Sodom, so you dragged your daughter into the water and asked her to carry out the poisoning plan for you…” heHe raised his eyes from the lipstick box, looked at Igraine, and asked with a smile: “How about it, do you still want me to continue?”

    Igland broke out in cold sweat and shook like leaves in the cold wind. His face was full of disbelief: “No…why…why you…”

    “By the way, your lover is… called Hall?” Uther said lazily: “He has confessed to everything and is now locked up in the dungeon. Do you want to see him? It’s just that he doesn’t look good now. Of course, no one will look good without their nose and ears.” At this point, he suddenly smiled maliciously and lowered his voice: “Even if she is the most beautiful woman in the continent, it’s the same…”

    Igland trembled obviously and fell backwards, instinctively wanting to stay away from him.As for Uther, he just sat there relaxedly, noble and calm, with a trace of fatigue and laxity unique to the royal family in his expression, but at this time, he looked so terrifying, like the king of hell sitting on his throne, looking down, watching the souls who fell into his clutches tormenting in the sea of ​​fire, and used this as his entertainment!

    “No… Your Majesty… No…” Igland’s bones were shaking, and he begged for mercy tremblingly: “Your Majesty… spare me… please…”

    “Spare you?” Uther smiled coldly: “I gave you one last chance. I warned you not to do stupid things. As long as you behave honestly, you can continue to be the queen. But you not only committed adultery, but also conspired with the adulterer to poison me… Now, you want me to spare you?”

    “No! No!” Igland screamed in fear: “I didn’t, I never wanted to poison you! It’s Candice! It’s her! Your Majesty, search her room, you can find the poison in her! Your Majesty! Please! Don’t believe her! Don’t let her go!”

    She completely lost her image, like a crazy woman, screaming hysterically, her eyes suddenly turned to me, with hatred to the sky, she suddenly got up from the ground and rushed towards me.The servants who were standing aside pretending to be statues suddenly moved and grabbed Igraine neatly to stop her.

    “Let me go! Let go! How dare you! I am the queen! I am the princess of Sodom! How dare you touch me! You despicable slaves! Let go… let go!”

    “The queen is crazy.” As she roared, Uther said calmly, “Take her away.”

    He didn’t say where to go or how to deal with her. Such a plain sentence made people even more frightened.Igland was so frightened that he desperately begged for mercy with tears streaming down his face: “No! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! No, where are you taking me…let me go! Your Majesty! Forgive me! Forgive me…”

    The servants remained silent and acted mercilessly, dragging the embarrassed Igraine out.Her Majesty the Queen’s screams were getting farther and farther outside, getting weaker and weaker, and finally disappeared into the long, dark corridor.
