When the soft sedan arrived at Yangxin Hall, Ling Xiao clearly saw that a palace maid was coming in a hurry. He stopped and the old eunuch naturally saw it too.

"Getting off the sedan chair..."

The old eunuch sighed, knowing that there was no need to go to the imperial study room.

Sure enough, the maid was the queen's personal attendant. She blessed herself with the old eunuch and looked into the soft sedan.

"Old Madam, the Queen has invited some officials. You can go to the Yangxin Hall to rest first..."

The old lady stretched out her hand from the sedan chair. Ling Xiao was about to help her, but was gently blocked by the palace maid. She eagerly helped the old lady get out of the sedan chair.

Seeing the appearance of the palace maid, the old lady probably guessed the queen's attitude. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao followed closely behind the old lady and followed her into the Nourishing Heart Hall.

In the palace, the queen was standing at the door and wandering. When she saw Ling Xiao from a distance, she couldn't help but stop and looked at him blankly.

When the old lady and Ling Xiao stepped into the Yangxin Hall and were about to bend down to salute, they were supported by the queen's own hands.

"Mrs. Sister-in-law, the officials have their word first. You don't need to bow when you enter the palace! Is this child the second young master in your house, your adopted son?"

"Yes! He is the child I picked up with my own hands. I'm afraid no one in this capital knows about it. Why does the Queen ask this?"

The old lady pretended to be ignorant and looked at the Queen with confusion. As if she had just seen the Queen clearly, she took a step back in surprise and looked back at Ling Xiao in astonishment.

"The Queen and my son are very close to each other."

The old lady smiled bitterly and shook her head, pretending that everything was a coincidence.

The queen's expression froze for a moment, and just when she was about to say something, the eunuch's sharp voice came into the Yangxin Hall.

"The Emperor is here!"

The emperor walked into the Yangxin Hall, and everyone bowed down to salute him respectfully. He helped the old lady up with a smile and directly helped her sit on the Taishi chair.

"Mrs. Sister-in-law, you were attacked on your way to the palace to thank me, are you okay?

The people from the Imperial City Department came back to report that when they found out, the Second Young Master had already shown his invincibility, so they did not show up.

However, even if this matter is left to He Qing, people from the Imperial City Department will be there to assist, and the truth will definitely be found out. "

The emperor tried his best to restrain himself from looking at Ling Xiao, and sat down next to the old lady with a smile to chat.

The queen had been standing next to Ling Xiao, staring at him closely, looking at his whole body carefully.

"Ziye did protect me today. He has really promoted the Yang family's marksmanship. I'm afraid Chengfeng may not be Ziye's opponent even if he is still alive."

The old lady said with a smile, Yang Chengfeng was her husband, she could naturally mention it, and she could also remind the emperor that Yang Chengfeng died for him.

"He is a good boy who is better than his predecessors. He raised his head and showed me."

When the emperor heard Yang Chengfeng's name, his eyes darkened, and he unconsciously thought of Yang Chengfeng and his past. They had known each other since childhood. He helped him ascend to the throne, protected the mountains and rivers for himself, and in order to save himself Died on the battlefield.

The emperor was so lost in thought that when he looked at Ling Xiao, his eyes were still full of reminiscence and confusion, but it was this unfocused look that fell on Ling Xiao.

At this moment, the emperor suddenly stood up. The queen once had a younger brother who followed the emperor in his weak years and died of poison while helping him, who was still a prince at the time, to seize the throne.

"It seems like an old friend is here!"

The emperor sighed and came to his senses. The child in front of him reminded him of two old friends one after another.

"If it weren't for the age difference, I would have thought that this was the uncle's orphan. Well, after all, I was wrong.

My child, if you follow your mother into the palace to express your gratitude, you must also think that Baokang is quite good! "

The queen now wanted to crack the emperor's head open to see what was in his head.

When the old lady heard the emperor's words, she had her guard broken for a moment and wondered if this man was a fool.

"Since ancient times, I have often heard that nephews are like uncles. Moreover, this child looks too much like my concubine's family and official family. I would rather allow my concubine to ask, where did the old man pick up this child?"

As soon as the emperor sat down, he suddenly stood up again, as if he had a serious mental illness, and directly grabbed the old lady's hand.

"Yes! This child is your adopted son, Madam-in-law. Where did you pick this child up? Do you still remember the specific date and time?"

The old lady was naturally prepared for this. She took out a small package from her sleeves and opened it. Inside was a pile of torn brocade quilts and a yellowed note.

On the note, the year, month, day and hour of the day when Yang Ziye was found was written in detail.

The queen held the brocade quilt and groped carefully with her fingers. This gold quilt was sewn by her mother, and she would never admit it.

When my mother was still alive, she asked her why she didn't cover her child with that quilt, which was wrapped in gold threads and could calm fright and eliminate evil spirits.

At that time, the wet nurse said that the child's skin was delicate and could not be covered with too much gold and silver, so she didn't care.

It turns out that it was because the quilt had been thrown away and the wet nurse was afraid of punishment so she was prevaricating herself?

Touching the quilt, the queen's eyes were filled with tears, and the yellowed note made the queen almost faint.

When she found the child, it was actually an hour later than when the old lady picked up the child.So, who is that child, the current prince?

The emperor looked at the queen's appearance and probably guessed what she meant.

"Come, call Imperial Physician Lin. Send someone to the East Palace and call the Prince here."

Doctor Lin was responsible for confirming the bloodline of the royal family and was not usually summoned. When he heard that he was asked to go to the Nourishing Heart Hall, he immediately took the medicine box and followed the eunuch in stride.

"Child, take two drops of blood from your fingertips."

The queen's eyes were red, she held Ling Xiao's wrist tightly, and spoke in an almost pleading tone.

After Doctor Lin came in, he didn't dare to raise his head at all. He quickly made two bowls of soup according to the emperor's instructions. The soup was brought to Ling Xiao by the eunuch.

Ling Xiao allowed Dr. Lin to take two large drops of blood from his fingers and drop them into the decoction. He then watched as Dr. Lin took the blood of the emperor and empress and dropped them into the decoction.

Doctor Lin shook the gray-brown soup bowls. After a while, the two bowls of soup became clear and transparent, just like ordinary water.

"Your Majesty, this son is indeed the direct bloodline of you and the Queen."

After Imperial Physician Lin said respectfully, he stepped aside. He knew very well that the emperor and the empress were not interested in the medical principles of decoction, so he did not need to waste any words.

"child……"

The queen suddenly felt sad, and her tears were no longer reserved. She hugged Ling Xiao, and her tears kept falling like broken beads.

"Queen, Ziye has lived a very good life in the Duke's Mansion these years. My mother treats me as her own child, and Ziye has not suffered."

Ling Xiao comforted the queen softly, which made the emperor's eyes turn red.

Just at this time, an attendant at the door said that the prince wanted to see him.

The emperor glanced at Dr. Lin, who immediately became busy and quickly prepared two more bowls of soup.

After the prince came in, he looked at the picture of Ling Xiao and the Queen's loving mother and son, and his mind was spinning, and he immediately guessed what happened.

"Father and Queen, please don't listen to the slander. The Yang family is proud of themselves, and now they are seeking power and usurping the throne. You can't be fooled easily!

Mother, Mrs. Yang has met you many times. If what she said is true, why did she not let this son come to recognize you until today?

They clearly used shady means, and now they are afraid that they have bribed Imperial Physician Lin. I am afraid that whether I am a blood dripper or not, I will be identified as a member of the cholera royal family.

Father and Queen, please be aware that you must make the decision for your children! "

The prince knelt on the ground, staring at Doctor Lin with burning eyes, as if he had some kind of blood feud with him.

Doctor Lin lowered his eyes and approached the prince with a bowl of soup and medicine. He said he was offended, but the short blade in his hand moved closer to the prince.

The prince continued to struggle, but was held down by several eunuchs beside him, allowing Dr. Lin to take two drops of blood.

Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the prince was not lying. Doctor Lin really had a grudge against him. This was the first time he saw a blood-dropping wound and almost cut off his finger.

The prince raised the bone-deep wound on his finger, kicked away the eunuch who was restraining him, and knelt before the emperor.

"Father, look at the baby's fingers. Doctor Lin did this deliberately because he has a grudge against the baby. You can't believe what he says!"

Doctor Lin shook the bowl of soup in his hand. The original gray-brown soup gradually turned into black and red. He leaned over and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, this son has no blood relationship with you or the Queen. He is not even a relative of the emperor!"

After Doctor Lin finished speaking, the emperor pushed away the prince who was holding his thigh in a disappointed manner.

"Father, this thief is in cahoots with the Yang family. I can't believe his words!

The child had fallen in love with his daughter last year and wanted to take her as his concubine, but he did not agree.Therefore, he came here seeking revenge! "

The prince's words made the emperor's pupils condense slightly. Doctor Lin was still kneeling on the ground but did not get up. He looked up at the emperor and kowtowed heavily.

"Your Majesty, the prince wanted to take his daughter as his concubine last year. After the daughter refused many times, she was forced to hang herself from a beam with a piece of white silk.

Now it seems that it was Wei Chen who harmed the little girl.

It seems that the prince knew about his life experience a long time ago, and was afraid that the incident would come to light, so he urgently wanted to take the daughter in so that he could restrain the minister today.

Poor Wei Chen's daughter, she has been engaged to a medicine farmer in Zhuangzi for a long time. Originally, the two of them planned to become medicine farmers, so they would have no worries about food and clothing. "

Doctor Lin naturally hates the prince. Her daughter cannot hide from the prince. She has her own heart and is used to living a life of traveling all over the mountains and plains. She can only commit suicide.It's pity that my son-in-law heard that his daughter had committed suicide, so he also threw himself into the river.

Now that he knew it was because of himself, while he hated the prince, he hated himself even more and hated this powerful imperial city.

"Your Majesty, I can write down the prescription for bloodline verification. You can send anyone to cook the medicine, and you can also let anyone test the authenticity of this medicine!

No matter who is going to verify it, as long as the result he comes up with is different from Wei Chen, Wei Chen is willing to bury the nine clans together and restore the prince's innocence. "

Doctor Lin knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily until his forehead was broken, and the emperor stopped him with a frown.

"Go down!"

Doctor Lin lowered his head, ignoring the blood on his face, and quickly left the Yangxin Hall.

The emperor did not let him write, and no other imperial physician was sent to prove the prince's innocence. Therefore, starting from today, he is no longer the prince.

"Father, how can you not believe in my son? I grew up beside you!

Mother, my son has been raised by you since he was a child, but the one next to you was raised by a rebellious minister and a traitor!The Yang family almost died for the royal family. How could they not hate the royal family? How could they believe their words! "

The prince was still struggling to his death, roaring, full of grievance and anger.

"Shut up! Someone will send him to the Imperial City Department and interrogate him to find out everything he knows.

If you are really innocent, how can I embarrass you with the care I have given you in raising me all these years?However, look at the way you are jumping up and down now, you don't look like an innocent person. "

The emperor flicked his robe sleeves, as if he had suddenly regained his intelligence. Seeing the guards dragging the prince down, he looked at the old lady seriously again.

"Mrs. Sister-in-law, this kid's nonsense is definitely not what anyone in the royal family meant. The Yang family has been doing everything for the imperial court for generations, and the royal family will never be so heartless.

Based on what he said just now, even if he is my legitimate son, there is no way he can become the prince.What's more, we still don't know whose bastard he is. "

The emperor was a man of deep affection and righteousness, so the old lady naturally believed what he said.

"come..."

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hui wants to see you!"

Just as the emperor was about to issue an imperial edict to depose the prince, Concubine Hui finally couldn't sit still and rushed in.

"I have met your Majesty, the Queen."

Although Concubine Hui is similar in age to the Queen, she looks much younger than the Queen, and her smile is as charming as a romantic girl.

"Concubine Hui, why are you here?"

After the emperor helped Concubine Hui up, looking at her crooked eyebrows, his mood suddenly became much better, and his voice became gentle.

The queen standing next to Ling Xiao immediately had a long face. This woman used to get along very well with her, but as the prince got older and his relationship with this woman became closer, he became cold towards him.

Gradually, the queen found that her husband and children were more willing to be with this woman, so she broke off contact with Concubine Hui.

At this moment, the queen saw that Concubine Hui had easily attracted all the emperor's attention, and her face naturally became very ugly.

"What's wrong? Why was Huan'er dragged off? Did he do something wrong?"

Concubine Hui snuggled next to the emperor, pretending to be confused and asking, as if she was blind and couldn't see the queen and Ling Xiao at all.

"Sigh... He is not of royal blood, and he is speechless. I am afraid that if he knows something, I will send him to the Imperial City Department.

You see, this is the legitimate son of me and the Queen. Ziye, when he joins the clan, he should change his surname back to Zhao. "

The emperor gently held Concubine Hui's waist, his IQ went offline again, and explained to her gently.

Concubine Hui looked at Ling Xiao with a smile, but her eyes were cold and vicious.

"This child looks like he is biological to the queen at first sight. He has suffered so much outside for so many years.

Sigh... Heng'er was afraid that he couldn't accept it for a while, so he talked nonsense. Official, you can't treat him lightly because he has been by your side for many years.Otherwise, people all over the world should say that the royal family is ruthless.

Back then, he was just a child who was taken advantage of by someone who wanted to. He has been growing up in the harem for so many years, but he has never had any contact with outsiders.

Your Majesty, Heng'er is innocent!My concubine has watched him grow up, so she naturally knows his character. "
