Shen Yu was so frightened that he blurted out without any thought.

"It's His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince!"

When her voice fell, everyone looked at Xie Chengxuan.

Xie Chengxuan was furious, "Don't spit on me! I'm not familiar with you! Don't throw dirty water on me!"

When the queen heard this, she tightened her hands even more. She left Shen Yu behind. Now Shen Yu said that the child in her belly was Xie Chengxuan's, which she couldn't even wash away after jumping into the Yellow River.

As expected, Emperor Xuande started asking her.

"Queen, you knew early on that the child in Shen Yu's belly was Xie Chengxuan's, so you kept her, right?"

"Your Majesty is wronged. I didn't know that Shen Yu was pregnant. Otherwise, I would definitely punish her in accordance with the palace rules. As for her saying that the child in her belly is Xuan'er's, that is absolutely impossible!" the queen defended.

"It doesn't matter what you say, let Xie Chengxuan decide for himself." Emperor Xuande said with a cold face.

"Father, I have never touched her. That child has nothing to do with me." Xie Chengxuan looked angry, "Father, you have to make the decision for me."

"Shen Yu, please tell the story carefully. If there is even half a lie, I will not spare you!" Emperor Xuande shouted.

If Shen Yuhuai was of royal blood and the grandson of Emperor Xuande, then she wouldn't have to die.

If she is pregnant with someone else's child, she, the child, and the child's father will all die!

"Your Majesty, one day I went to Kunning Palace to deliver something on the order of the Queen Mother. I happened to meet His Highness who was drunk. His Highness hugged the slave and forcibly dragged the slave into the room. The slave could not struggle..."

Shen Yu started crying when she said this, "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me."

"Nonsense! Why didn't you shout at the time? Why didn't you say anything afterward?" Xie Chengxuan's eyes became a little erratic, and his tone was obviously lacking in confidence.

"The slave shouted at that time, but His Highness covered the slave's mouth. The slave screamed until his throat was broken, but no one responded."

Shen Yu choked up and said, "Afterwards, His Highness was so drunk that I was afraid, sad, and desperate. I even thought about dying. I lost my innocence and was afraid that I couldn't explain the truth, so I wanted to hide the matter. Where could I?" You dare to speak out."

Xie Chengxuan panicked, "Don't you even know that you are pregnant? Can you hide this kind of thing?"

He was confused and somewhat incoherent.

Shen Yu stopped talking, she was heartbroken.

She has a natural mark on her appearance, and when she acts so aggrieved and innocent, people can't help but feel pity when they see her.

"Xie Chengxuan, tell me, is this really what happened?" Emperor Xuande asked.

Seeing that he couldn't hide the matter, Xie Chengxuan immediately knelt down and said, "Father, I was really drunk that day. I don't know who I was with..." He did such a thing.

"Father, I really didn't know anything about this before this. I thought it was a dream I had."

Xie Chengxuan's face was filled with annoyance.

Seeing Xie Chengxuan admitting it, the Queen bent her back and almost fainted.

Her reputation in this life will fall into Xie Chengxuan's hands.

"Absurd! How ridiculous!" Emperor Xuande pointed at Xie Chengxuan, "You evil son!"

"Father, please forgive me!" Xie Chengxuan kowtowed.

Emperor Xuande cared about these things the most. Regardless of whether he was a man or a woman, if his conduct was bad or his personal ethics was corrupt, it would be difficult for him to achieve great things.

"Xie Chengxuan, as the legitimate son of the middle palace, you don't want to make progress, don't set an example for the world, and you actually do something to ruin the reputation of a girl. It's not an exaggeration for me to beat you to death!" Emperor Xuande was furious.

"Father, I know I was wrong. Father, please spare my life." Xie Chengxuan admitted his mistake.

Now that the matter has come out and Shen Yu has royal blood, she has to give her an explanation.

"Princess Anping, how is the child?" Emperor Xuande asked about the child in Shen Yu's belly.

"Back to the emperor, everything is normal." Shen Yan replied.

"Shen Yu, I will give you to Xie Chengxuan as my concubine, are you willing?" Emperor Xuande asked.

Under normal circumstances, based on Shen Yu's status, it is absolutely impossible for her to be the legitimate son and concubine of the middle palace.

However, it was Xie Chengxuan who ruined her innocence now, and besides, she already had royal blood. If she didn't do this, she wouldn't be able to convince the people of the world.

If the royal family does not set an example, women will not be treated fairly in the future if their innocence is ruined by men.

The queen was dissatisfied with Shen Yu. She was the royal concubine. How could she give it to such a woman who had no status and could not help Xie Chengxuan win the title of heir?

Xie Chengxuan was also dissatisfied. He didn't like Shen Yu, not at all. It was really disgusting to have such a person be his concubine.

However, both mother and son dared to be angry but dared not speak out.

Shen Yu shed tears and looked extremely unwilling, feeling aggrieved.

She thought about it for a while and answered with a choked voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for making the decision for me."

Seeing that she agreed, Emperor Xuande breathed a sigh of relief.

"Get up, kneeling is not good for the child." Emperor Xuande said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Shen Yu stood up.

"It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun. You pack up and live in Xie Chengxuan's house tomorrow." Emperor Xuande said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Shen Yu no longer had the arrogance she once had, and she acted very well-behaved.

"Queen!" Emperor Xuande's voice was cold, "Tell me how you should be punished for your mistakes."

The queen's face was completely lost, and she did not make any excuses, nor did she ask for forgiveness from Emperor Xuande.

Because Emperor Xuande would never forgive her.

"My concubine surrenders the power to manage the Sixth Palace and is confined in Kunning Palace for one month." The Queen said.

"Go and receive the punishment yourself. From now on, Concubine Wan will be in charge of everything in the Sixth Palace." Emperor Xuande said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The Queen thanked her and stood up to leave.

Concubine Wan bowed to Emperor Xuande and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will live up to His Majesty's expectations and manage the Sixth Palace well so that His Majesty won't worry about it."

She had a look of surprise on her face. How could this incredible wealth suddenly befall her?

She was a complete outsider tonight.

Emperor Xuande didn't give such a good thing to Concubine Rong, but gave it to her.

It proved that she was the most important in Emperor Xuande's heart.

She was elated, staring at Emperor Xuande with sparkling eyes.

She truly loved Emperor Xuande.

Emperor Xuande did not respond to Concubine Wan. He looked at everyone and said, "I'm tired. You continue, you must have a good time."

Today is the celebration banquet for the soldiers, we cannot let them down.

After Emperor Xuande left, others continued to party. Xie Chengxuan was not in the mood. He went straight out of the palace and ignored Shen Yu.

Shen Yu was dripping wet, so she did not stay any longer, but went back to her residence to change clothes.

When she returned to the room and was about to change her clothes, a figure flashed in.

"Shen Yu, is that child really Xie Chengxuan's?"
