As a palace maid, she should know that even if a royal bloodline was recognized halfway, without the support of a strong maternal family, it was unknown whether she could survive to adulthood.
It would be fine if there were no other children in the Regent's Palace, but there already is a little prince, Chang Sunqing.
And he is a child who looks exactly like this ninth brother!
Therefore, even if the child is recognized, it is conceivable that the child will have a difficult life.
There was absolutely no need for the maid to lie to frame the regent. If she wanted to make up a story, saying that the child was from another prince would be more reliable and convincing than the regent. It would also be safer.
Emperor Jing's eyes flickered slightly.
"It seems that this maid made a mistake."
When the maid heard this, she immediately kowtowed and said, "Your Highness, I am absolutely not talking nonsense and I am not mistaken. Xuan'er is really the child of His Royal Highness the Regent!"
Her eyes were red, "If I lie, I will be struck by lightning and go to hell after I die, and I will never be reborn!"
Every word is full of blood and tears, every word is shocking.
Everyone here has some discerning eyes and can tell what is true from what is false.
At this moment, many people were wondering, could this child really be the Regent's...
Lord Si and Lord Yang, who had just laughed at the joke before, now looked at Ling Sheng with naked irony.
Originally, for a regent like him, having a few illegitimate children was not a big deal.
But being visited by someone on such an occasion today really made the Ling family look very proud.
The hatred of their daughters' death and injury was finally avenged!
Emperor Jing frowned, "If you pretend to be of royal blood, you must know that not only will your own life be in jeopardy, but your child's life will also be in jeopardy."
The maid screamed, "Your Majesty, I am not pretending! Xuan'er is the real one!"
Suddenly she thought of something and turned to Baili Feiyue, saying, "Miss Ling San, no, Princess Princess, I have always heard that you are very favored by His Royal Highness the Regent. Please, please persuade His Royal Highness the Regent to recognize Xuan'er."
She kept kowtowing, "I really don't have any extra thoughts. If I could still hold on, I wouldn't send Xuan'er to recognize his relatives. Princess, I really just hope Xuan'er can have a home. Please consider that he is the prince's bloodline and persuade him..."
After a long period of silence, the woman in exquisite and luxurious wedding gown sneered and reached out to lift the red veil on her head.
"Tsk, why do you make it seem like I don't want this child?"
From the direction she was facing, the Empress Dowager Jingdi and others who were seated on the throne were facing her.
The moment the veil is taken off.
The Queen Mother's hands on her knees tightened slightly.
Enchanting beauty...confusing the world.
Baili Feiyue's watery eyes were curled with a faint smile. She glanced at the palace maid who was stunned on the ground for a moment, and her gaze moved to the child she was protecting behind her.
Then he looked at the man beside him.
"I've said it before, I'm really tired of marrying into your Changsun family. There's no peace after marriage."
"hiss--"!
This time there was a noticeable inhalation.
The man raised his hand and stroked her slightly dissatisfied cheek, his purple eyes revealing an unpredictable smile, "It's too late."
"Hmph," Baili Feiyue slapped his hand away, "It's too late! If you don't make it clear today, this kiss won't happen!"
There was another sound of gasps.
Emperor Jing's eyes darkened, his emotions unclear, "Ling San..."
After only two words, he changed his tone again, "Sister-in-law, there must be some misunderstanding here, calm down first."
Baili Feiyue raised her eyebrows, smiling, "Okay, since Your Majesty calls me sister-in-law, I won't be polite. But I want to ask you something. Your Majesty and the Queen Mother personally arranged the wedding. How did this maid who has been out of the palace for many years sneak into the palace with a child?"
"What does this mean, sister-in-law?"
"Literally." Baili Feiyue did not shy away from the pressure in Emperor Jing's eyes, "This subject really suspects that these two people were brought in on purpose!"
She narrowed her eyes slightly, "Since your majesty personally ordered the marriage between me and Changsun Wuji, I'm sure your majesty will be very happy to see us get married. Then, that person must not be you, your majesty?"
That being said, it's the same as saying it was Emperor Jing who did it!
Although Miss Ling San had disobeyed and questioned Emperor Jing before, she had never directly exposed the undercurrents between Emperor Jing and the Regent like this.
At this moment, even Minister Wang of the Ministry of Justice and Minister Mu, who had always been very calm, were no longer as relaxed as before.
My nerves are quite tense.
Ling Jing, this is...
"Miss Ling San, even if you have become the regent princess, this is not the attitude you should use when speaking to His Majesty."
An old but powerful voice suddenly sounded.
Baili Feiyue looked over and smiled, "Oh, it's you. Master Taifu, do you remember my father's birthday party a while ago? What a coincidence, at that time a man brought a child and said it was my Ling Jing's child. At that time, you were also very angry and wanted to maintain the rules and morality, right?"
As soon as these words came out.
The memories of those present were evoked.
Indeed, the situation today is very similar...
The old master's face turned pale and blue after hearing her words.
"That incident was my fault, but today..."
"What happened today?" Baili Feiyue asked with a smile, "I spoke rudely to His Majesty, and you stood up. But such a big event as the wedding of the Regent of Dajing was interrupted by someone with ulterior motives. It was also against the rules, why didn't you stand up and say anything?"
There was no respect in her eyes at all, as there was at the birthday party before. Some of these corrupt moralists who thought they were of a high status and put on airs did not deserve respect!
"Don't you value rules and morality the most? Can you selectively turn a blind eye at this time?"
Compared with the last time, this time she was so aggressive that she slapped the old tutor in the face.
The old tutor taught both Zhangsun Wuji and Emperor Jing.
Even with what happened last time, the old tutor's position is unshakable.
She is so offensive.
The place was instantly like an ice cellar, freezing cold.
The old master's lips trembled until they turned purple, and he did not utter another word.
Yang Jiao'er's father, Lord Yang, found the right opportunity and said, "Miss Ling San, don't be so arrogant! With the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and the Regent here, it's not your turn to speak nonsense!"
"Hey, Master Yang, I'll say the same thing to you. With the Queen Mother, the Emperor, and the Regent here, how can you be the one to lecture me?"
"you……"
Lord Yang didn't expect that she would be like a mad dog, biting whoever she caught.
Turning to Ling Sheng who had remained silent, he said, "General Ling, is this the good daughter you taught me?"
"I am naturally a good daughter taught by my father. At least my father gave me a good brain. I won't be like your daughter, who was used as a fool and died without knowing how she died!"
He shook his head, sighing, "Really, he was beaten to pieces, so pitiful..."
Lord Yang's eyes instantly turned bloodshot.
It's full of terrible pain.
I was so stimulated that I almost went crazy, and my teeth were chattering.
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, Miss Ling is simply crazy! She is tearing out the heart of this old minister!"
Compared to Lord Yang, who was about to faint from the pain and anger, Baili Feiyue was particularly contemptuous and arrogant, "Will it be useful to complain? Am I afraid of you complaining?"
