This appeal successfully attracted the attention of the entire court.
The ministers looked at Nangong Liuer, who was shouting herself hoarse, with varying expressions.
But in the end, all the complicated gazes fell on Si Jin.
"I've heard before that the Fourth Prince doesn't like women. What's the story behind that?"
When someone raises a question, someone else will provide an answer.
Soon, the court officials began to whisper among themselves behind Si Jin's back.
"That's just a rumor. If he doesn't like women, why would the Fourth Prince marry a princess?"
"But no matter what, given what Nangong Liuer and the Second Prince did, who can guarantee that this child is the Fourth Prince? I think it's more likely that he is the Second Prince!"
"But there's no way to verify it. How can anyone know whose child it is before it's even born? Isn't it all up to Nangong Liuer's word?"
Because Nangong Liuer's actions were too conspicuous, the emperor specifically addressed the matter before discussing state affairs during court sessions.
Nangong Liuer took out the solar-powered ultrasound machine stored in her system.
She ran her fingers over her stomach twice through her clothes, tears streaming down her face.
"Your Majesty, this is an object that I invented a long time ago. It can not only check whether a woman is pregnant, but also verify in advance who the father of the child is..."
Nangong Liuer spoke with great confidence.
She came from the year 2360, having been reborn into this dynasty.
Any item randomly selected from the system's store can easily confuse this group of "primitive people".
She also relied on the system to become the most talented woman in the capital, and was even admitted to the Imperial Academy by special consideration, studying at the same time as the young masters of various noble families, and even obtaining the qualification to participate in the imperial examination.
Although she was not pregnant, the machine had already been modified.
Once the report is issued, it will surely prove that the "fetus in her womb" is Ning Sijin's!
To clarify again, the reason I went to see Ning Sizhen that day was simply to ask for some medicinal herbs to help with pregnancy.
At that time, even if Ning Sijin had a hundred mouths, he couldn't escape the infamy of abandoning his wife and children!
All the officials stared at the ultrasound machine beside Nangong Liuer, too nervous to even breathe.
Ning Sizhen had already prepared an excuse, just waiting for the result to come out so he could crush Ning Sijin to the bottom!
Gradually, the ultrasound report was automatically printed out.
To ensure a fair outcome, Eunuch Xia stood by and directly handed the ancient cultural artifact verification form to the emperor for review.
The emperor took the test results and glanced at them indifferently.
Suddenly enraged, he threw the document to the ground: "Insolence!!! The Council Hall is a solemn place; how dare you mock me here?!"
The emperor was furious, and all the civil and military officials immediately shuddered and knelt down to beg for mercy.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger."
Ning Sizhen, assuming his father had seen the outcome, excitedly stepped forward to clarify: "Father, it was indeed Miss Nangong who asked me for some medicinal herbs to help with pregnancy that day. I never imagined you and Fourth Brother would misunderstand like this. Fourth Brother abandoned his wife and child; he is truly despicable, I..."
The emperor's cold gaze swept over, and Ning Sizhen suddenly stopped speaking, his heart immediately leaping into his throat.
Why do I always feel that Father Emperor's anger isn't directed at Ning Sijin, but at him?
Of all the officials, only Eunuch Xia lowered his head and whispered a reminder: "Second Prince, you should look at the results yourself before you speak."
What result are you looking for?
Liu'er told him that the machine would definitely produce a result indicating that the "child" was Ning Sijin's biological child, so why bother looking?
Ning Sizhen lowered his head and picked up the test results with some skepticism.
He glanced at it, and his eyes widened suddenly.
—Nangong Liuer is two months pregnant with a boy. After blood testing, the father has been identified as…
Ning Sizhen?!
