In a blink of an eye, it was the emperor's birthday banquet, and Chu Xuan brought Lu Yanluo into the palace to attend the banquet.
Everyone was toasting each other, and halfway through the banquet, a young eunuch walked quickly from the side to the emperor and whispered something with his head down.
Chu Xuan took the opportunity of drinking to look at the golden throne, only to see the emperor looking down at a letter with a bad expression.
"My dear ministers, please enjoy the delicious food and wine here. I am a little tired, so I will take a rest for a while."
"Night King." The emperor looked at Chu Xuan with a cold gaze, "Follow me to the side hall to talk."
Chu Xuan subconsciously glanced at Lu Yanluo and said softly, "When I'm not around, you have to be careful."
Lu Yanluo nodded.
After a moment, Chu Xuan stood up and followed the emperor.
In the side hall.
Before Chu Xuan could stand still, a letter filled with the emperor's unwillingness and resentment was thrown in front of Chu Xuan!
"Look at your mother, this is your mother! I love and pamper her in vain, and this is how she repays me!" The emperor was furious and wished he could eat Chu Xuan alive on the spot!
Chu Xuan stared at the letter in front of him. It was written in his mother's handwriting and was addressed to Prince Jin.
The words "bloodline" and "children" jump out of the paper.
"Impossible." Chu Xuan's expression remained unchanged as he firmly rejected the question. "Mother would not do anything to let Father down. Besides, I am your son. Would you rather believe a letter of unknown origin than the mother who gave birth to your bloodline?"
"Shut up!" the emperor shouted, "How dare you say you are my son?! Someone come!"
The hall was quickly filled with royal guards, ready to execute Chu Xuan on the spot!
…
In the main hall, Lu Yanluo felt a little uneasy as she thought about the emperor's expression when he left.
Behind him, Shen He took the opportunity to approach and whispered quickly, "My queen, something terrible has happened. Someone has reported that the prince is the one who had an affair between Concubine Yun and Prince Jin. His Majesty is now in a side hall, furious, and wants to execute the prince!"
"What?! Take me there quickly!" Lu Yanluo stood up quickly, but she didn't know that someone didn't want her to ruin her good thing.
Concubine Lin stopped Lu Yanluo and said, "Where are you busy, Princess Ye? I haven't thanked you properly for what happened last time. Come, I'll toast you a glass!"
Lu Yanluo pretended to raise her glass to greet him, "Your Highness, I am so embarrassed."
Seeing that Concubine Lin refused to let them go, Lu Yanluo became secretly anxious and motioned for Xiaoran to come over.
"Go find the Queen Mother quickly and tell her that the prince and I are in trouble and ask her to go to the side hall to save us!"
After hearing this, Xiao Ran suddenly became alert and quickly crouched down and ran out.
Looking at Xiao Ran running away, Concubine Lin finally revealed her vicious face, and smiled close to Lu Yanluo's ear: "I advise you to stop working hard. Seeing you struggling in vain, I feel distressed. It's a pity that Chu Xuan will die tonight. No matter how powerful you are, you can't change it!"
Neuropathy!
Lu Yanluo forcefully pushed Concubine Lin away, looked at her coldly, turned around and ran towards the side hall where Chu Xuan was.
There was a solemn atmosphere in the side hall.
As soon as Lu Yanluo stepped in, she saw Chu Xuan sitting on the couch, looking calm and composed, as if nothing had happened.
There was a bowl of clear water in the hall, obviously for the purpose of blood test to identify relatives.
Lu Yanluo walked over, picked up the letter on the ground and took a quick look at it.
[This is too fake, it is definitely a forgery. ]
[But it seems that this emperor really believed it. How damn narrow-minded he is. He only has a bad temper but no brains.]
Chu Xuan was originally surprised that Lu Yanluo suddenly came in, but when he heard this, his expression softened instantly.
He couldn't help but feel a little emotional. A'Luo was so smart and sharp that she was rare to see.
She is worthy of being the woman he likes!
"Why did you come in without being summoned?" the emperor asked with a sullen face, obviously furious.
Lu Yanluo quickly apologized, "Father, please forgive me. I was a little worried that the prince had drunk too much and offended you, so I dared to come over to take a look."
It was obvious that the emperor had no intention of dealing with Lu Yanluo at this time, and he glared at Chu Xuan.
"Drop your blood right now, I want to see whose son you are!"
Chu Xuan snorted coldly, "You can always find a pretext to accuse someone of a crime. Father, how could it be that my mother's love for you all her life could not withstand the frame-up of someone with ulterior motives?"
The emperor was mocking when he heard this: "Sincerely? No, you are wrong. Your mother's sincerity has never been with me. She is the one who failed me! It's her!"
After so many years, the affair between Concubine Yun and Prince Jin has always been a thorn in the emperor's heart.
Chu Xuan refused to give in, "Mother has never let father down, she..."
"Alright! I don't want to hear your opinion on this matter anymore. What I want to know now is whether you are my son or not. Give me your blood test immediately!"
Chu Xuan refused expressionlessly: "You can kill me today, but you can't doubt my bloodline in this way. This is a blasphemy to my mother."
The emperor was furious. "If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink a penalty. Come, hold him down for me!"
Seeing that the situation was getting increasingly out of control, Lu Yanluo stepped forward and cut her own and Chu Xuan's fingers.
With two "tick-tock" sounds, blood dripped into the bowl.
Chu Xuan looked at Lu Yanluo in surprise, not knowing what she was up to. He was slightly dissatisfied: "A Luo, what are you doing?"
However, the next second, after seeing the blood in the bowl, Chu Xuan changed the subject: "How could it be..."
I saw the two drops of blood in the bowl quickly merged together!
The emperor was horrified when he saw this, and Chu Xuan was even more confused.
Lu Yanluo pointed at the two drops of blood in the bowl and said, "Your Majesty, you have seen that my blood and the prince's blood can actually mix, but the prince and I are not related by blood at all, so this proves that blood testing is not reliable at all."
In order to confirm her words, Lu Yanluo pulled over another Royal Guard to verify.
Coincidentally, the blood also mixed.
Lu Yanluo continued, "As long as the blood types are the same, the two drops of blood can mix. This little brother of the Imperial Guard happens to have the same blood type as mine and the prince, so it can mix naturally. But if the prince happens to have inherited the recessive genetic factors in your and Concubine Yun's blood types, resulting in a blood type different from yours, then even the closest blood cannot mix. Isn't that an injustice?"
The emperor's face became even gloomier. Although he did not understand her long speech, the two drops of blood mixed in the bowl were evidence that blood identification was unreliable.
After a long while, the emperor snorted coldly.
"Chu Xuan, although I cannot prove your background, I would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go."
After saying that, the emperor snorted again: "If you want to hate someone, go hate your mother. She is the one who harmed you!"
Lu Yanluo understood that Chu Xuan was going to be executed.
[What a stubborn old man! Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but he actually has the power to decide the fate of his own son. I have never seen such a rude old man in my life! ]
Hearing Lu Yanluo's thoughts, Chu Xuan agreed greatly and couldn't help but laugh at himself.
"Father, please don't forget that I am a prince listed in the Imperial Book of Documents and a prince appointed by you personally. If you execute me for no reason today, I'm sure that in the future, neither the court nor the harem will be able to explain it, right?"
The emperor was furious when he heard this, obviously feeling that his authority was challenged.
“Rebellious son! Rebellious son!!”
