The standard version is as follows:
: God save our gracious Queen : Long live our noble Queen : God save the Queen: : Send her victorious, : Happy and glorious, : Long to reign over us: : God save the Queen. The following is also part of the anthem, but usually only the third verse is used on occasion.
: O Lord, our God, arise, : Scatter her enemies, : And make them fall. : Confound their politics, : Frustrate their knavish tricks, : On Thee our hopes we fix, : God save us all. : Thy choicest gifts in store, : On her be pleased to pour; : Long may she reign: : May she defend our laws, : And ever give us cause : To sing with heart and voice : God save the Queen.*
Hopefully no one will. The queen is not even the rightful person to be on the throne. The correct heir is a person in Australia who is the ancestor of the kings illegitimate child from a few hundred years ago. The queen is not legitimate as a result. Therefore, her family is not even entitled to rule in reality. The current monarchy is therefore complete and utter rubbish. Charles Windsor or his sons are not princes in reality and deserve no more respect than any other person who is alive today.

Not sure what you are asking about... a certain book? Chess? In chess, it is true that the Queen can do a lot more damage than the King. However, you still lose the game if you don't protect your king, so that seems more powerful to me. It is just a different kind of power. The whole game is about the King. If you lose your Queen, the game continues. If your King is in danger, that takes precedence over everything. If you are talking about a specific book, the answer could still be related to Chess, since many authors have used Chess imagery in their books. Or, the queen in the particular story could just have a stronger personality... which is okay. Women can have stronger characters than men sometimes. Nothing wrong with that.
The expression "the Queen's English" refers to an imaginary standard of language spoken by the British monarch.
The expression was/is only ever used in the negative - as a contrast to someone's manner of speech.
The actual style of English spoken by the Queen is a particular form of upper-class English and is somewhat old-fashioned.
What it really meant was that the person using the phrase looked down on the vocabulary and grammar being used by the person or people referred to.
The wonderful thing about English - which some people in other countries envy - is its ability to adapt and move on with changing times. It is a living langauge, which changes with the decades.
"Proper" English is anything which allows the speaker to communicate effectively with their particular audience at any given time. We all speak differently to our grandparents than we do to our friends.
