Chapter 567 Bloodline Verification! Who is the Fourth Prince's bloodline?
"However, some people are not yet all present."
"Please wait a moment, gentlemen."
Zongzheng and his two companions: ?
die?
Does he really dare to kill them?!
King of Qin: "How dare you!"
"If you have the guts, then reveal your true colors! Let me see who you really are!"
Li Qingluo: "Who I am is not important."
"The important question is, who exactly is His Highness the Fourth Prince?"
Upon hearing this, the King of Qin froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.
His face quickly darkened.
He remained silent under Li Qingluo's mocking gaze.
Li Qingluo: "What, Your Highness, you've stopped making trouble?"
"Weren't you just now indignant and bursting with anger?"
The King of Qin looked up and glared at her angrily, gritting his teeth as he roared, "Stop spreading your heretical rumors!"
“I clearly saw Li Wu in the woods just now.”
"So, you're one of his people too!"
"Was he the mastermind behind all of today's conspiracies, or not?"
"He must have some deep-seated hatred for our Zongzheng clan, which is why he painstakingly planned everything that happened today!"
"Now you want to destroy me and the Fourth Prince, and even sow discord between me and His Majesty as brothers, and between His Majesty and the Fourth Prince as father and son!"
"You have such sinister intentions!"
Li Qingluo: "Not as treacherous as you."
"Stop talking nonsense."
"The truth will be revealed later."
"King of Qin, do you think that what you have done is no longer known to anyone in this world?"
Li Qinglu waved her hand, and Xie Liulang and Gong Sanlang, who had been tied up last night, were also brought up.
The two were gagged and pushed to squat under a tree on the other side.
Soon, Duan Rongshi arrived with Leng Dian and Qing Yangzi.
The three of them stood under a tree not far away, not getting too close.
Until Zhang Tingjiu and Yang Qilang were also brought up.
Upon seeing Li Wu and Qingyangzi arrive, Zhang Tingjiu and Yang Qilang immediately rushed over excitedly and asked, "Brother Li, are you alright?"
"We've all fallen into this young man's trap!"
Zhang Tingjiu: "How come you got arrested too?"
"It's over! This young man's skills are so high that even you couldn't withstand them. It seems you can't escape today!"
Duan Rongshi: ...
He gave them a look that was hard to describe, but didn't say anything.
Yang Qilang continued talking to himself, "But just who is this young man?"
"She actually captured the King of Qin too!"
"Now the Emperor, the Fourth Prince, and the Prince of Qin are all in her hands. What exactly is she planning to do?"
"Should we just go all out?"
Zhang Tingjiu: "I always felt that something was not quite right."
Yang Qilang: "I think so too. Ah! I know! None of us were tied up!"
Yang Qilang and Zhang Tingjiu both stretched out their arms.
Moreover, all of them are agile and could easily escape even if they took off running now.
Zhang Tingjiu frowned: "Could she be... considering us as allies?"
"Brother Li, what are your thoughts on this matter?"
Duan Rongshi: "Let's observe the situation first."
As they were talking, Zongzheng Wuheng was also pushed up the mountain.
Upon seeing his appearance, the other three men from the Munemasa clan were very excited.
However, Zongzheng Wuheng simply turned his head away slightly.
His appearance enraged the King of Qin, who roared, "Sixth Prince! So you're in cahoots with these traitors too!"
"What exactly do you want to do!?"
"Are you going to help these traitors harm your own father, brothers, and uncle?"
"Sixth Prince! Don't think that just because something happened to the Fourth Prince and your father, you can sit on that throne!"
"You're a useless person! Instead of thinking about how to protect the Zongzheng clan's empire, you've conspired with others to harm your own brothers and father. Are you even human?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Li Qingluo, who had been watching the spectacle with his arms crossed, sneered.
"A cripple?"
"Your Highness, the Sixth Prince is indeed disabled, but isn't the Fourth Prince also disabled?"
"You know better than anyone whether the expensive gift you received last night was fake, otherwise you wouldn't have kept harping on the men of Lord Zhang and Lord Yang all night."
At this moment, Li Qingluo looked exactly like a vicious villain.
This drove the King of Qin to the point where his eyes turned bloodshot.
Zhang Tingjiu and Yang Qilang were both greatly shocked!
So it turns out they were being relentlessly pursued by the King of Qin all night because of this person!
Looking again, the fourth prince's hand appeared to have been chopped off. Could she have done that too?
Her methods sent a chill down their spines.
What deep-seated hatred did this person harbor towards the royal family?
Why would anyone plan all of this?
Could she really be a traitor plotting to usurp the throne?
So what kind of power is behind her?
Zhang Tingjiu and Yang Qilang, who had unknowingly fallen into an abyss, were filled with a deep sense of unease.
Li Qingluo: "Also, isn't your attitude towards the Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince vastly different?"
"A prince who keeps calling himself the Fourth Prince!"
"One of them, yet he casually called himself 'Sixth Brother'."
"Tsk tsk tsk, even I, an outsider, can't stand it anymore and want to say a few words of justice for the wronged Sixth Prince."
The King of Qin's expression changed slightly.
What nonsense are you spouting?
"I had no such intention!"
"I was just angry and that's why I spoke so rudely. In my eyes, they are both princes. Although I am their uncle, I have no intention of disrespecting them in the slightest!"
Li Qingluo was not in a hurry to argue with him.
He only watched coldly as Prince Qin finished shouting with his neck stiffened before letting out another cold laugh: "You're all princes, aren't you?"
"Does anyone know that there is a kind of witchcraft in Miao territory that can make all blood relatives in the world unable to escape the word 'verification'?"
When the topic of Miao witchcraft came up, the expressions of the several powerful and influential families from Nan'an present all changed.
The sorcery of the Miao region was a closely guarded secret among the powerful and influential in Nan'an.
The imperial court explicitly forbade it.
But how many powerful and wealthy people nowadays keep Miao witches in their homes?
After all, if you don't take precautions, someone else might destroy you tomorrow.
The Jiang family is the best example.
After the Jiang family incident, all the powerful and wealthy families in Nan'an who had previously remained calm began to secretly recruit witches.
Several major sects had already quietly entered Nan'an.
Regardless of their purpose, they all eventually settled down in Nan'an.
Miao witchcraft is both righteous and evil; it can harm people, but it can also save them.
Despite repeated bans by the imperial court, powerful families began to keep witches themselves.
But this is not something to be proud of.
Therefore, everyone only dared to do this kind of thing in secret, and they would tacitly agree never to mention the Miao witchcraft in their daily conversations.
But the young master in black, masked and standing before us, actually brought it up directly today.
A deep sense of suspicion resurfaced in everyone's hearts: Who is she?!
However, why did she suddenly bring up bloodline verification when she mentioned the prince?
What does this mean?
Amidst the mixed gazes of the crowd, Li Qingluo looked at A Duo and nodded slightly.
At this moment, a huge open vessel was already placed in the middle of the open space.
A'duo directly lifted Zongzheng Wuheng's finger and cut it open without saying a word.
Amid Zongzheng Wuheng's darkening expression, A'duo tightly wrapped a handkerchief around Zongzheng Wuheng's fingers, and soon, half of the handkerchief turned red.
"You are becoming increasingly lawless. What do you take me for?"
"Pigs, sheep, dogs, or cattle and horses?!"
"Did you even greet me? How dare you harm me so easily! What is your punishment?"
And this happened in front of so many people, where does he put his face now?
These people will go back and spread rumors about him, saying that he is not only a cripple, but also a useless person who can be slaughtered by others!
Zongzheng Wuheng stared intently at A'duo.
If they weren't now in the same boat, this A'duo would have been chopped into mincemeat long ago!
Ado: "Would you agree if I asked?"
"Stop your futile struggles. The most disgraceful member of the Munemasa clan here today is not you."
"Besides, nobody cares what you look like."
She didn't even glance at Zongzheng Wuheng, but walked directly to Li Qingluo and handed her the handkerchief with both hands.
Li Qingluo then looked at Sha Yi.
"Bring me two."
Sha Yi immediately understood and, following A Duo's method, collected the Chu Emperor's blood onto two handkerchiefs.
The Chu Emperor struggled angrily, but his mouth was gagged and sealed.
Moreover, as a notorious tyrant, no one cared about his feelings anymore.
Li Qingluo received two handkerchiefs and immediately threw the Chu Emperor's handkerchief and Zongzheng Wuheng's handkerchief into the brazier.
"Do you all know how Miao witchcraft verifies kinship?"
"Put a red Gu worm into the vessel, and then put two blood-stained items from two close blood relatives into the vessel as well."
"Then, burn them together."
“Once the witchcraft is performed, the burning flames will change color.”
"If the flame is red, it means that the person is a close blood relative."
"If the flame turns yellow, the two are not closely related, but they can still be considered blood relatives."
"But if it turns green, it's a complete stranger."
"Look everyone, what color is this?"
As the fire in the vessel suddenly burst into flames, Li Qingluo quickly pinched her fingers a few times while muttering incantations.
And the flames, right before everyone's eyes, instantly turned from ordinary flames into bright red!
Zongzheng Wuheng was not happy at all, and roared angrily, "Nonsense!"
"Of course, I am Father Emperor's own son."
What do you mean by that?
Li Qingluo: "Don't worry, Sixth Prince. No one doubts that you are his child."
"The person I'm going to examine today is not you."
"You and your father are merely examples."
"What follows is the truth that everyone should see."
As he spoke, the men around the King of Qin cut open his arm and drew blood.
The King of Qin let out a miserable scream.
His face turned deathly pale.
"What tricks are you playing?! How dare you spout nonsense and disrupt the royal bloodline here?"
"The royal bloodline is not to be trifled with by you."
"Stop right now!!"
"You're all blind to this person's wanton actions, harming the royal bloodline, the Emperor, and the princes! You've witnessed him committing heinous crimes and remained completely indifferent!!"
"Stop him right now!!"
Li Qinglu rolled her eyes.
"Getting impatient?"
"Scared?"
"Don't worry, don't be afraid, this is just the beginning."
"If Your Highness is a righteous gentleman who has nothing to fear, then whatever I do will have no impact on you, will it?"
"Unless, you have a guilty conscience."
