Chapter 119 Being manipulated
All the ministers knelt down at once and shouted to Emperor Xing'an: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, the love between father and son is so deep."
Marquis Lu said to Feng Chenyi, "Prince Rui! You really shouldn't have done that." He then knelt at Emperor Xing'an's feet and said, "I beg Your Majesty to seek justice for my daughter and let her return home."
The third prince laughed arrogantly. He had been waiting for this opportunity in his dreams. When Feng Chenyi fell into his hands, he could torture Feng Chenyi slowly with one knife after another.
He was ecstatic to have his debts repaid to himself and his mother.
Emperor Xing'an looked at Feng Chenyi and suddenly felt a little regretful. He regretted that he should not have listened to him. Now, all the officials knew the reason why Concubine Su was sent to the cold palace, and he, as the emperor, had lost all his face.
Emperor Xing'an gave Feng Chenyi a fierce look and said, "I can't protect you anymore."
The prince looked at all this in disbelief, his face full of helplessness.
Zhai Yun looked at the two drops of blood that had merged, and her heart paused. Could it be that such a thing would also be derailed by her rebirth? How could it be possible?
The Third Prince grinned and ordered, "My father has given the order. Come, tie up Prince Rui and this little guard and bring them to my palace!"
Feng Chenyi pulled Zhai Yun behind him. A blue formation had already appeared in his palm. It was the formation that Lou Yexue had used last time. He shouted at Zhai Yun, "You go first."
The Imperial Guards rushed in and the Imperial Palace was immediately surrounded, with Zhai Yun and Feng Chenyi trapped inside.
The Third Prince was the first to be criticized. "Second Brother, you won't regret it and want to escape, will you? If you escape, you will no longer be a prince, and your mentor, General Shi, will be implicated by you."
After hearing this, Feng Chenyi kept the blue formation in his hand shining. "I won't run away, but Zhai Yun must leave. He shouldn't be involved in this!"
Zhai Yun was deeply moved when she saw Feng Chenyi protecting her like this, but how could she be the kind of person who would run away from the battlefield?
Feng Chenyi's eyes were filled with murderous intent. The Crown Prince and Emperor Xing'an both noticed something was wrong. The Crown Prince repeatedly advised, "Don't get excited, second brother. Let's discuss anything."
Emperor Xing'an hid behind the dragon throne, and all the officials also retreated.
"Huh." The Third Prince laughed disdainfully. "Second brother, with your two skills, it won't be difficult for you to escape, but can you completely ignore the people behind you?"
"Stop talking nonsense, I'll go with you! Let Zhai Yun go!" After Feng Chenyi said this, he wanted to activate the formation, and the air around him began to rotate, as if it was controlled.
The eunuch chief was so frightened that he couldn't hold the bowl steadily and stumbled back. Zhai Yun seized the opportunity, grabbed him, and snatched the bowl from his hand without any hesitation.
He bit his finger and squeezed the blood into the bowl. Just as the formation was about to be completed, Zhai Yun shouted, "This prince is here! Who dares to be rude?"
Feng Chenyi and everyone present were surprised. Feng Chenyi looked back at Zhai Yun and saw Zhai Yun put the blood bowl on the ground. Three drops of blood in the blood bowl that merged with each other came into view.
And Zhai Yun called himself the prince, which made everyone confused.
Zhai Yun looked at everyone's reactions and explained, "My blood can also dissolve. I am also of royal blood!" After that, Zhai Yun said pitifully, "No wonder I have been an orphan since I was a child. It turns out that my father is the current emperor. If it weren't for this opportunity today, I wouldn't even know that I was actually a prince."
Everyone was stunned by this scene, and they didn't know what to do after hearing Zhai Yun's words. The Third Prince was stunned by the scene, and even Emperor Xing'an himself was confused.
How could he have a prince who was living away from home?
Zhai Yun still said pitifully, "Father, now that we have finally recognized each other, are you going to hand me over to my third brother like this?"
Emperor Xing'an looked at Zhai Yun with a confused look on his face.
"How is this possible? How could you be father's son? Impossible!" The third prince shouted excitedly. He looked back and forth between Zhai Yun and Emperor Xing'an, but he could not see any similarities.
Zhai Yun pointed at the bowl on the ground and said, "But our blood has mixed together!"
Emperor Xing'an looked at the bowl on the ground for a long time in disbelief. The third prince looked at the blood on the ground and stepped back repeatedly.
A young official stepped forward. He first walked to the blood bowl, dipped his fingertips in the blood, and tasted it. He saluted Emperor Xing'an in surprise and said, "Your Majesty, there's something wrong with this water. It tastes like alum."
Zhai Yun knew this young minister. His name was Duan Yian. He was the top scholar in the imperial examination. He was extremely talented and was later granted the title of Chen Ji and promoted to the position of Shaoqing of the Dali Temple. He was a first-class judge and had solved many unsolved cases.
But later he stood up against Zhai Yun's participation in politics and was killed by Zhai Yun.
Now that he could stand up, Zhai Yun was very surprised. In fact, Zhai Yun had guessed that there was something wrong with the water a long time ago. She was just acting when she called herself a prince. No one present believed what she and Feng Chenyi said.
Then let them find the answer themselves when they don't believe it. And now it is Duan Yian who stands up to find the answer. As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent.
Zhai Yun was the first to speak, "What? Then I can't become a prince!
Duan Yian glanced at Zhai Yun and said, "With alum in the water, anyone's blood will dissolve in it."
Feng Chenyi, who was standing aside, suddenly relaxed his tense nerves. The blue formation disappeared in his palm, and the atmosphere on the scene returned to normal in an instant.
When Emperor Xing'an heard that there was a problem with the water, he looked angrily at the eunuch chief who was preparing the water. He was in charge of the entire process. The eunuch chief was so frightened by Emperor Xing'an's eyes that he fell to his knees.
He avoided her gaze but didn't dare to speak.
Emperor Xing'an was so angry when he saw his appearance that he kicked him over. He was someone close to him, but now he dared to act on his own and tamper with the water. He must have been bribed by someone. Such a person was not worthy of being around.
The eunuch was so frightened by Emperor Xing'an's kick that he quickly begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, please spare my life. Your Majesty, please spare my life. The captain of the palace guards ordered me to do this. If I don't do it, he will kill me! This servant has no choice."
The chief of the palace guards is also the third prince’s uncle, Su Beihu.
Zhai Yun sneered, "That's it, all at once." He thought, "At this moment, he was the only one who could keep up with what was being discussed in the imperial court and bribe the eunuchs around Emperor Xing'an."
He was betrayed so easily.
When the Third Prince heard that it was his uncle Su Beihu who bribed the eunuchs around Emperor Xing'an, he was completely stunned. "How could it be? How could my uncle bribe the eunuchs to do such a thing?"
Adding alum to the water, is my uncle afraid that his blood will not mix with Emperor Xing'an's?
The Third Prince's eyes were filled with shock, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back. Could there really be something wrong with his identity? The Third Prince's face suddenly turned pale.
