Chapter 118 Recognition of relatives with blood
Chapter 118 Recognition of relatives with blood
After all, confusing the royal bloodline is not something that can be said for fun.
Between the Third Prince and Feng Chenyi, one of them must die today, either the Third Prince or Feng Chenyi.
The Crown Prince Feng Chenji beside him also shook his head and frowned to comfort Feng Chenyi: "Second brother, you can't say this casually. How could Third Brother..."
Everyone was questioning Feng Chenyi, and Emperor Xing'an looked at Feng Chenyi with such a look that he wished he could strangle him at birth.
There were voices in the court saying that Feng Chenyi was all-powerful and wanted to kill the third prince.
"Just because the Third Prince's uncle impeached him, Prince Rui wanted to kill the Third Prince. It seems that Lord Su was most likely wronged."
"No wonder Lord Su didn't resist. It turns out Lord Su guessed that Prince Rui would be aggressive, so he took it all in."
"Prince Rui is truly lawless!"
All the accusations were directed at Feng Chenyi. The reason why Zhai Yun had not exposed the matter yet was because she knew that Feng Chenyi was now isolated and helpless in the court, and confusing the royal bloodline was no trivial matter.
Anyone who brings it up will be criticized by everyone.
But the arrow was on the string. Zhai Yun covered Feng Chenyi's wound, looked at Feng Chenyi with a worried look on his face, and shouted to everyone present: "Is Prince Rui trying to stir up trouble? Why not do a blood test to prove your relationship before making a decision?"
As Zhai Yun spoke, he didn't notice the surprised look in Feng Chenyi's eyes. In fact, he was not very sure, but the Third Prince insisted on targeting Zhai Yun, so he took the risk and raised the question.
Although he was not quite sure about the answer, Zhai Yun chose to stand on his side and support her.
Feng Chenyi had never expected that in such a dangerous situation, Zhai Yun would still choose to stand by his side without hesitation. He took Zhai Yun's hand and asked her suddenly, "Are you afraid?"
Zhai Yun looked back at Feng Chenyi and said, "Don't be afraid."
Ever since she came to Feng Chenyi, she had decided to share everything with him.
Zhai Yun's words caused an uproar.
"This master and servant are really stubborn and are using blood to prove their relationship. Ugh, they really want to die."
"Prince Rui is fine, but a mere guard has the audacity to speak so brazenly!"
The discussion was frenzied, and Zhai Yun and Feng Chenyi were caught in the storm. Everyone pointed at them and said they were trying to call a horse a zebra.
Feng Chenyi glanced around coldly, looking indifferently at Emperor Xing'an in the Dragon Palace: "Father, are you also afraid and dare not drop blood to recognize your kinship?"
Emperor Xing'an's anger, which had already subsided, was aroused again by Feng Chenyi. He glanced at the court officials in the hall, and gave a conclusion as this incident had caused an uproar.
There will be more people talking about this later. Emperor Xing'an gritted his teeth and said, "What if you are proven wrong?"
Feng Chenyi's posture was steady, and there was no fear in his words, "I, your son, will still be under the disposal of my third brother!"
Emperor Xing'an did not expect Feng Chenyi to be so determined. He left it to Feng Chenmu to deal with. You must know that the person who hates him the most in this world is Feng Chenmu. If Prince Rui falls into his hands, he will be miserable.
Emperor Xing'an's anger instantly subsided. He glanced at Zhai Yun from the corner of his eye, pointed his index finger at her, and said to Feng Chenyi, "Including him, leave it to your third brother as well."
Feng Chenyi hesitated. Although he heard some words, he was not completely sure. He did not want to drag Zhai Yun into the water. After all, he knew better than Emperor Xing'an what would happen to him if he fell into Feng Chenmu's hands.
Zhai Yun gently grasped Feng Chenyi's arm and looked at Emperor Xing'an firmly: "Yes, including this servant."
Feng Chenyi did not answer, but Zhai Yun answered. Zhai Yun's determination and courage made Emperor Xing'an stunned for a moment.
At this point, Emperor Xing'an no longer had any reason to refuse. If it was confirmed that Feng Chenmu was not his son, then the thorn in his heart would be removed forever. If it was proven that the third prince was of royal blood, then he would also be relieved.
The consequences will be borne by Feng Chenyi. Handing him and the young guard beside him over to the Third Prince's party can also calm their anger and achieve the best of both worlds.
Emperor Xing'an turned around and walked towards the dragon throne with a normal expression. When the Third Prince heard Feng Chenyi say that he would let him do whatever he wanted, the corners of his mouth curved into a smile, and his expression looked a little impatient.
The prince saw the deep affection between Feng Chenyi and Zhai Yun and could not help but persuade him, "Guard Zhai, this is not a joke."
Zhai Yun pretended not to hear and just looked at Feng Chenyi. Feng Chenyi also looked at Zhai Yun, as if just by looking at each other, they understood all the other's thoughts.
The prince was anxious and tried to persuade him, "Second brother, it's not too late for you to admit your mistake to father now. Do you want Guard Zhai to suffer with you?"
The Third Prince was impatient, as if afraid that Feng Chenyi would change his mind. "Brother, look at these officials. If we don't give a final conclusion to this matter, how can we quell their speculation?"
Emperor Xing'an sat back on the dragon throne, waved his sleeves and sat upright, "Let's do as Prince Rui said! Blood test to prove our relationship!"
The court hall suddenly became extremely quiet. No one dared to speak easily, fearing that the third prince was not of royal blood, or that he really was.
Zhai Yun glanced at the ministers. She had seen many of them before. When her eyes caught sight of Marquis Lu, he looked away.
They did not know about Concubine Su's extramarital affair. In their opinion, Concubine Su gave birth to the Third Prince after entering the palace, and the Third Prince was the bloodline of Emperor Xing'an.
This is for sure.
When Zhai Yun saw Su Beiqian, he knelt respectfully on the ground with no expression on his face.
Feng Chenyi gently held Zhai Yun's hand. In the eyes of the civil and military officials, their handshake was just a mutual comfort before death. In the eyes of the eldest prince, Zhai Yun's identity was indeed suspicious.
Two grown men holding hands? In the eyes of Emperor Xing'an, Zhai Yun is truly extraordinary, and holds a special place in his Rui'er's heart.
When the eunuch chief brought the water, he glanced at His Highness and then carefully walked towards Emperor Xing'an with the water. Emperor Xing'an had also fought in the battlefield when he was young, so he did not hesitate at all when taking blood.
Blood slid from Emperor Xing'an's fingertips and dripped into the water, becoming very conspicuous in the water.
As the bowl dripping with Emperor Xing'an's blood was carried down from the hall and headed towards the Third Prince, everyone stood on tiptoe to watch, fearing that they would miss something!
The third prince looked at Zhai Yun and Feng Chenyi provocatively, but did not notice that Su Beiqian, who was kneeling at his feet, was shaking violently. The third prince smiled triumphantly and cut his finger with a knife.
When the blood dripped into the bowl, some ministers were already impatient to see it clearly. Lord Lu even walked forward, and even Emperor Xing'an, who was sitting on the dragon throne, walked down quickly.
The blood dissolved in the clear water in the bowl, and the two drops of blood rippled in the clear water separately. In the end, there was no distinction between you and me, and Emperor Xing'an's face turned black.
The ministers who saw this all breathed a sigh of relief. Only Lord Lu was as if he were facing a great enemy. Finally, he quickly knelt down and shouted, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. The love between father and son is so deep."
