Bai's words were like a thunderclap, completely stunning everyone in the main hall of Dongchu.

"Is Physician Liu the biological father of this child?"

"Then wouldn't Physician Liu be with Consort Su...?"

"No, no, no, just now Chief Physician Hang said that Consort Su's body is not conducive to pregnancy, so the child was not born to Consort Su at all."

"The Dowager Consort seems to have said that it was born to a palace maid."

"Even palace maids are not acceptable. Imperial Physician Liu is guilty of defiling the palace and confusing the royal bloodline, which is a serious crime!"

Physician Liu was so frightened that his heart trembled and he almost peed his pants!

Su Feiling looked at Bai Shi in disbelief.

She actually knows everything?

What happened? How does she know all this?

Su Feiling subconsciously looked at Su Xuening beside Bai Shi and saw that she was looking at her calmly. She immediately understood everything.

It was all Su Xuening's doing!

At this moment, she finally understood why Su Xuening had let her go so easily, even though she had caught her faking her pregnancy.

It wasn't because of her kneeling, but because they were waiting for this moment to kick her completely into the abyss!

Su Xuening, how ruthless!!!

Xuanyuan Peng hadn't expected that this child was related to Physician Liu, and immediately shouted angrily, "Liu Songming, what exactly happened? Explain yourself now!"

Physician Liu trembled with fear. How could he dare admit to such a grave crime as defiling the palace and confusing the royal bloodline? But now the Empress Dowager knew everything and must have some evidence. Even if he didn't say anything, these things would probably be made public in the main hall right now.

"Your Majesty..." Seeing that Physician Liu was about to reveal everything, Su Feiling was about to speak up anxiously.

Before Su Feiling could speak, Xuan Yuanpeng interrupted her sharply: "I didn't tell you to speak!"

Xuan Yuanpeng's stern shout instantly silenced Su Feiling.

Xuanyuan Peng's sharp gaze pierced Liu Taiyi.

Lady Bai also glanced at Physician Liu: "What is the truth? You tell me yourself, or I will tell you for you!"

Knowing he couldn't escape it any longer, Physician Liu knelt on the ground and tremblingly recounted everything.

"One day, Consort Su summoned me to see a doctor, but instead drugged me. I then had intimate relations with Zishu, a palace maid in Consort Su's palace. Afterwards, Consort Su threatened me, demanding that I fabricate a pregnancy record for her, or she would report my debauchery in the harem to the Emperor. This was the first time I had encountered such a situation, and in the end, I could only submit to her manipulation..."

"You're talking nonsense!" Seeing that Physician Liu was pushing all the blame onto her, Su Feiling got angry and pounced on Physician Liu like a madwoman, trying to hit him. Physician Liu was so frightened that he shrank back.

Upon seeing this, Xuanyuan Peng became enraged again: "Guards, seize Consort Su and gag her!"

At Xuanyuan Peng's command, the Imperial Guards immediately stepped forward to restrain Su Feiling and gagged her with a wad of cloth!

"Ugh!" Su Feiling tried to struggle, but she couldn't move or make any sound.

Seeing Su Feiling treated this way, Imperial Physician Liu became even more frightened. He swallowed hard and continued his report: "Afterwards, Zishu became pregnant. Consort Su drove Zishu out of the palace so that Zishu could have a safe delivery outside the palace. Three days ago, Zishu gave birth safely. Consort Su has been thinking about how to get the child into the palace. Just yesterday, when the Holy King attacked the city, Consort Su asked me to take advantage of the chaos to bring the child into the palace. She then announced her delivery to the public, but she didn't expect..."

They thought they had done something flawless, but little did they know that everything was already in the sights of others.

Everyone sighed with emotion after hearing what Physician Liu had to say.

The women in this palace are all incredibly resourceful; they even came up with such a method.

If the Dowager Consort hadn't already foreseen this, then Consort Su's plan would have succeeded.

With the royal bloodline confused, the throne could change hands! This Consort Su is truly formidable!

Xuanyuan Peng never expected them to do such a thing, and he was so angry that his chest felt like it was going to explode.

That damned Su Feiling, how dare she confuse the royal bloodline like this! If it weren't for Xuan Yuan Yu repeatedly disappointing him, he might have made Xuan Yuan Yu the crown prince, and this child might very well inherit the throne in the future!

How dare they?!

It's true that Ya'er said the child was born to a palace maid, which means that Xuan Yuan Yu, whom she mentioned before, wasn't his biological son...

But Su Huiyan was really pregnant at the time. Could it be that Su Huiyan had a child with another man?

The mere thought of this possibility made Xuanyuan Peng so angry he wanted to kill someone!

Physician Liu sensed the murderous aura emanating from Xuanyuan Peng on the dragon throne and immediately prostrated himself on the ground, kowtowing desperately: "Your Majesty, I am guilty, but I was forced into this situation. Please forgive me, Your Majesty..."

Xuanyuan Peng had no intention of paying attention to him at the moment, and gave a wink to the Imperial Guard next to him.

The Imperial Guards immediately stepped forward and restrained Physician Liu, while also stuffing a wad of cloth into his mouth to prevent him from shouting.

Xuanyuan Peng's gaze swept sharply over Su Huiyan. He no longer wanted to deal with Su Feiling and Physician Liu; he only wanted to find out the truth about another matter: "Su Huiyan, is Xuanyuan Yu my biological son?"

This sudden question made Su Huiyan's heart pound: "Your Majesty, why...why are you asking such a question? If Yu'er isn't your biological son, then whose son is he?"

Fearing that Xuan Yuanpeng might overthink things, Su Huiyan quickly changed the subject, saying, "Yes, Your Majesty, I never expected Su Feiling to dare to do such a thing. She only did it because she loves Yu'er too much and is afraid of not receiving his favor. But I know nothing about these things, and they have nothing to do with Yu'er. Both Yu'er and I were kept in the dark. In fact, we are victims too!"

Su Huiyan acted as if she herself had suffered a great injustice.

"Hmm..." Seeing that Su Huiyan wanted to distance herself from the situation, Su Feiling immediately struggled anxiously again, but she still couldn't say anything.

After many years of marriage, Xuanyuan Peng knew something was wrong the moment he saw Su Huiyan's expression. His anger surged to the top of his head: "I'll ask you one last time, is Xuanyuan Yu really my son?"

Xuanyuan Peng's sudden outburst made Su Huiyan realize the seriousness of the matter. She immediately said nervously, "Your Majesty, Yu'er is of course your son. Have you heard someone say something slanderous again?"

As if to cover up her own guilty conscience, Su Huiyan immediately turned her attention to Bai Shi: "Bai Fuya, what did you say to the Emperor again?"

Without even thinking, she knew that it must have been Bai Fuya, that vixen, who had said something to the Emperor that made him suddenly ask that question.

Bai gave her a cold look: "Isn't this just about how you switched the baby during your childbirth, replacing the farmer's child with your stillborn one?"
