Chapter 317: The True Saint



He paused and continued.

"I will send someone to get a real white jade crescent to test your identity. I just hope you can be mentally prepared during this period."

Shen Yuerong's heart skipped a beat, her abdomen ached, and her brows furrowed.

Seeing this, Chi Mu immediately supported her with concern and asked her with concern.

"What's wrong? Are you okay? Do you want a doctor to take a look?"

Shen Yuerong smiled gently and explained: "The doctor didn't need it. It might just be because I was too nervous just now."

She answered casually and went back to the room with Chi Mu to rest.

But she couldn't sleep, with her hands on her abdomen, where a vibrant life was beating.

If I am really a saint, what should I do with the child?

According to legend, the saint's child will also become a saint, but only one of them can survive.

Shen Yuerong gently stroked her abdomen and sighed deeply.

As the sky brightened, the news of the prince and the saint girl spread quickly throughout the capital, and people started talking about it.

Chu Lianhua was directly arrested and thrown into prison. As for those officials who had been secretly communicating with the prince, they were trembling with fear.

Among them, Fu Hengyu was equally afraid because he had a lot of interactions with the prince.

Fu Hengyu found Shen Yuerong and wanted her to help him get through this disaster.

As a result, he stood at the door for a long time, but Shen Yuerong ignored him, so he had to return home disappointed.

When he returned home, he found that all his belongings had been taken away.

It turned out that after Du Wan learned the news, she took out all the gold, silver and jewelry and ran away.

Now the General's Mansion was only an empty shell, and Old Madam Fu still needed medicine all the time. The mansion was in a mess. Fu Hengyu's head was about to explode.

He went outside to relax and did not return home until late at night. Suddenly, a carriage stopped beside him.

The curtain was lifted, and a rich and elegant face appeared before him.

"I wonder if the general can cooperate and save the prince together."

Now this seemed to be the only option left for Fu Hengyu, so he agreed immediately.

The next morning, rumors that Chi Mu and Shen Yuerong deliberately framed the prince spread throughout the streets and alleys.

Some people also said that there were items of treason hidden in the palace, and that the dragon robes and letters were forged and sent in.

Now the Dali Temple Minister was extremely busy, as he not only had to seal off the Prince's Mansion, but also the Prince's Mansion.

He couldn't afford to offend either of these two people, so he simply reported them to the emperor.

The emperor looked much older than before. He sat there and listened to the whole thing, then spoke in a calm tone.

"I wonder what the prince thinks about this?"

He looked in Chi Mu's direction and asked.

Chi Mu stood up and answered loudly, "This is simply alarmist. Although I am a prince, I will never do such a treasonous thing."

"If your majesty doesn't believe me, you can just send people to seal off the palace. If you find anything amiss, you can throw me into jail."

When the emperor heard this, his eyes darkened and he just waved his hand.

"Then go and seal up the palace."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone rushed to the palace to check.

Chi Mu seemed to have been prepared. He was not afraid at all and instead stood up and knelt down to pay his respects.

"In fact, Your Majesty, I have something else to report. The real Saint is not Yue Tong, but someone else."

The ministers around were all in an uproar. A fake saint left, and a new one came. They were all a little bit unconvinced.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid you secretly hired someone to impersonate this Saint, just like the Crown Prince."

"Yes, don't make such a joke like what happened before. Besides, it's not that easy to pretend to be a saint."

"After I returned, I looked into the news about the Saint. It was that the Saint used her own blood to make the white jade crescent glow, and her pupils turned blue at the same time."

Chi Mu glanced at the person who spoke. It seemed that the other party had been prepared for this. It went without saying that this was the Queen's work.

The prince was thrown into prison, and the person who faced the greatest threat was her. She had to do everything in her power to protect the prince so that her own position could be consolidated.

At this time, Fu Hengyu walked out slowly and presented a letter.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report. Princess Shen Yuerong once lived in my house for a period of time. My seriously ill mother at home kept mentioning her, so I went to look for the princess."

"I didn't expect to see the princess interacting with someone, and she also left a letter behind. Please take a look, Your Majesty."

When the emperor took the letter and saw what was written on it, he angrily threw it in front of Chi Mu.

"Who do you think I am? You actually colluded with your wife and wanted to fabricate a new saint. I want to see if the saint you called out is Shen Yuerong."

“If it were Shen Yuerong, there would be no need for your palace to exist.”

Fu Hengyu looked in the direction of Chi Mu with pride. He had long predicted that Chi Mu and the others wanted to create a new saint, so he exposed their idea in advance.

If this happens, they will be helpless and will lose the trust of His Majesty. This is what he and the Queen hastily discussed last night.

Unexpectedly, Chi Mu just stood there calmly with a sneer on his face.

"Who said the new Saint is my wife? The Saint is someone else, and I can verify it."

He said something and turned to point in the direction of the door.

Everyone's eyes fell on the direction of the door, and they saw a figure appear.

That figure was not Shen Yuerong, but Bai Xue.

Bai Xue walked in holding a white jade crescent moon in her hand. The clothes she wore were simple yet holy.

She stood beside Chi Mu, bowed to His Majesty, and spoke directly.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I just learned my identity a few days ago, so I was unable to report it to Your Majesty in time."

The emperor still had some doubts about Bai Xue's identity. He looked her up and down and asked, "Are you a saint?"

"I heard that the identity of the Saint can be verified."

Bai Xue pulled out a dagger without panic, cut her finger, and dripped water on the white jade crescent. At that moment, the white jade crescent glowed.

Her pupils also turned blue, and she looked mysterious and beautiful.

At the same time, strong winds blew around, and everyone was blown unable to open their eyes.

The emperor stared blankly at Bai Xue in front of him. He didn't expect that this woman was actually a saint.

At that moment, he had no doubt at all.

Bai Xue took this opportunity to kneel on the ground in a gesture of loyal worship and slowly uttered a word.

"I am willing to be loyal to Your Majesty. We can sign a contract to protect the country's peace and the people's well-being for generations to come."

Originally, the emperor was somewhat skeptical of Bai Xue, fearing that he might have ulterior motives.

As a result, Bai Xue's direct statement reduced the emperor's suspicion and he immediately burst into laughter.

"If that's the case, then the Saint will move into the harem and protect our country for eternity."

"come over."
