If you want to delete nodes, that are not direct children of the documents root, you can do this:
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
// ... fill or load the XML Document
XmlNode childNode = doc.SelectSingleNode("/rootnode/childnode/etc"); // apply your xpath here
childNode.ParentNode.RemoveChild(childNode);
