The Queen's assassination of Wei Zi was exposed.

According to records, Emperor Jiajing was not very close to women at the beginning of his reign, so he never gave birth to children even after he ascended the throne for ten years. At that time, the minister was worried that if the monarch had no children, it might be more troublesome to inherit the throne in the future. So Jiajing married nine concubines at the strong suggestion of ministers, and this concubine provoked the right and wrong and struggle of the harem.

Among these concubines, Cao likes her very much because she is beautiful and clever. So she gave birth to two daughters to the monarch, which made the queen very uncomfortable and regarded it as a thorn in her side. Although the queen has been trying to get rid of Cao, she can't find a chance, so she can only wait hard.

Soon, the queen's chance came. Emperor Jiajing was addicted to alchemy and wanted to live forever. In order to verify the efficacy of the elixir, he asked the ladies-in-waiting to try the medicine, but in order to prevent the efficacy from being affected, Emperor Jiajing refused to let the ladies-in-waiting eat it, and the ladies-in-waiting starved to death a lot, but Emperor Jiajing didn't mean to converge at all. Over time, the ladies-in-waiting began to plot to kill Jiajing. Although the assassination of the maid-in-waiting failed, the queen took the opportunity to frame Cao, saying that she was the mastermind and got rid of Cao.

However, the Jiajing monarch is not a fool. He knew that Cao had been wronged, but he had no proof. He could only watch Cao being killed by the queen, which also made Jiajing Princess dissatisfied with the queen. Five years later, a fire broke out in the Forbidden City and the Queen was trapped in the fire. The eunuch originally wanted to put out the fire, but Jiajing stopped the eunuch's fire fighting action at the thought of Cao's death, and the queen was burned to death in the fire.
