"Then...if I am not Consort Jing's child, why didn't you expose me when Father brought me to Luoyang?"
"He Hui's son and Xie'er are currently engaged in a power struggle, and someone needs to divert their attention. So, I bribed a fortune teller to divine He Hui's future, and he said that the person who will compete with her son for the throne in the future is you!"
"So, the reason why Empress Dowager He has been trying to kill me all along was because you were the one behind it all?" Liu Wei seemed to understand something.
"Heh heh, I'm laughing at He Hui, you're so useless, you can't even be killed!"
Empress Dowager Dong seemed determined to finish her story in one breath, "Later, when I saw you stand up to support Xie'er, I decided to keep this matter to myself."
"However, as long as you properly support Xie'er to become emperor and do not have any improper thoughts, I will not make this matter public."
"Don't even think about destroying the evidence. I've come to see you today and said all this because I've already made sure everything is in order."
"As long as you don't usurp the throne, you will always be a prince born out of wedlock in the Liu family."
"Liu Wei, I know you want my life. I'll give it to you now and fulfill your wish!"
Suddenly, Empress Dowager Dong's eyes blazed with a sudden surge of light, as if she were experiencing a final burst of energy before death, and she rammed into a pillar in the main hall.
Liu Wei and Liu Hua rushed to stop them, but it was too late.
Blood was gushing from Empress Dowager Dong's head, and she was on the verge of death, barely breathing.
"Daughter, whether he kills you or not, I don't know. You'd better take care of yourself!"
Empress Dowager Dong coughed up blood and foam, her head lolled to the side, and she breathed her last.
Liu Wei never expected this old woman to be so cunning.
He tricked Liu Wei before he died.
Whether Empress Dowager Dong was talking nonsense or telling the truth, she had already planted a thorn in his and Liu Hua's hearts.
Whether this matter is true or false, we certainly cannot rely on Empress Dowager Dong's one-sided account.
But it's possible that Liu Hua might have other ideas after hearing this, after all, she is a member of the Liu family!
"Auntie, did you believe what she said?"
Seeing the complicated expression on Liu Hua's face, Liu Wei asked with a gloomy face.
Liu Wei's eyes were frightening. Liu Hua was startled. Was Liu Wei going to kill her to silence her?
"I don't believe her nonsense. She knows she's going to die, yet she deliberately pulls this stunt to sow discord among us."
Liu Hua calmed herself down, stared at Liu Wei with her beautiful eyes, and said firmly.
"It's good that Aunt didn't believe her! She said there's some kind of certificate in Yongle Palace, and Aunt and I should go take a look?"
"You can go alone, I don't need to!"
What did Liu Wei mean by asking her to go to Yongle Palace with him?
