Chapter 213: The Eternal Empress, 1V4 Shura Field 51
Not only Jingchuantang, but Xu Zhu, as one of the parties involved, was no less shocked than him.
Xu Zhu looked at Quan Jiu with complicated eyes.
He didn't expect that the woman was really her...
Quan Jiu and Feng Zhuo looked at each other and tacitly chose to keep it a secret for the time being.
Quan Jiu: "Since Emperor Liang already knew about this, why did he keep it secret?"
She was very sure that there was nothing between her and Xu Zhu and that they had never had any intimate relationship.
Liang Rushi: "Before, seeing how much the Empress hated this child, Zhu'er and I didn't dare to say anything. Liang Kingdom and Qianqiu Kingdom have always been at odds. If I tell everyone the truth, the child's situation will probably be even more miserable."
"Since Emperor Liang cares so much about this child, why doesn't he take the child back to Liang?"
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Mo Xi's eyes.
Liang Rushi: "Of course, I'm afraid the Empress won't agree to return the child."
Quan Jiu sneered.
"Lord Liang is truly thoughtful."
During the negotiations between the two countries, he threw the child out as a bargaining chip. If she didn't know the truth, she would have been anxious a long time ago.
She raised the little boy, and she would never hand him over.
"I want the child, and I want the city too. What do you think, Lord Liang?"
Liang Guojun acted like a peacemaker:
"I have no objection...but as the Empress' only child, I hope she will treat him well."
Quan Jiu immediately understood his plan.
Does this mean she wants to make Naituanzi the crown prince?
The biological father of the Crown Prince of Qianqiu Kingdom is the Prince of Liang Kingdom. Once Naituanzi succeeds to the throne, he will definitely not attack his biological father.
"Don't worry, I will make arrangements for this child."
A dark light flashed in Quan Jiu's eyes.
Since he has been planning for so long, she will help him. Anyway, Naitanzi has nothing to do with Xu Zhu, and she doesn't plan to have another child. So she will let Naitanzi be the crown prince of Qianqiu Kingdom, and she can be a hands-off boss.
"elder sister……"
Mo Xi suddenly spoke.
"Bloodline matters cannot be treated so hastily."
Quan Jiu: “…”
How Naituanzi and Moxi can live in peace with each other is another big problem.
"Blood test to prove kinship."
It is rare for Jingchuantang to stand on the same front as Moxi.
The palace servants quickly brought a knife and clean water, and Naituanzi, who was counting sheep and waiting for wine in the bedroom, was also brought over.
"Your Highness, this may be a little painful, please bear with it."
The palace maid was about to take action when Quan Jiu suddenly spoke.
"etc!"
Naituanzi looked at the knife on the tray, a hint of unknown fear flashed in his eyes, but because he knew the expression on his face, he didn't dare to say anything.
Quan Jiu squatted down and touched his head, and found that his small body was shaking.
"Fear?"
Because of her previous attitude, these palace servants were not respectful to him. Even before they drew their knives, they only considered Quanjiu's orders and did not seek Naituanzi's opinion.
The little girl has a pair of dark, watery eyes, thin light pink lips pursed into a line, and her eyebrows are knotted.
He thought seriously for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to look at Quan Jiu:
"Does this...help you?"
She used to be very fierce, always beating and scolding him, but in the past six months, she seemed to have become a different person, kissing him, hugging him, and coaxing him to sleep...
He wanted to believe that she had really changed for the better.
It was just a few drops of blood drawn with a knife, which didn't hurt him at all. The most painful thing was being beaten by a group of palace maids and eunuchs until his head was bleeding.
Quan Jiu looked at his clear, lively, and wet black eyes like a kitten, and his heart inexplicably softened.
In the past year, Milk Ball has changed a lot. His originally skinny body has gradually become stronger, his sunken face has baby fat, and even his complexion, which was yellow due to malnutrition, has become white and transparent.
Quan Jiu squatted down and looked at him seriously, and suddenly he had a plan in his mind.
“It won’t be that helpful.”
Because she knew that he was not her son, she used the blood test to recognize him just to slap the face of King Liang.
"We won't do this blood test anymore."
Quan Jiu waved his hand and asked the palace servant to put away the tray.
There is no need to let your own child get stabbed for the sake of a hostile King of Liang.
Naituanzi's eyes lit up.
He actually hated the blood test, not because he was afraid of the pain, but because he didn't like anyone questioning his relationship with Quan Jiu.
Mo Xi disagreed: "Sister..."
Quan Jiu said, "The Crown Prince's enthronement ceremony will be held in three days. If the Lord of Liang has enough time, he can stay and observe the ceremony before returning to Liang."
Liang Rushi was overjoyed. He had never expected Quan Jiu to be such a "fool". He said:
"Since the Empress has invited me, I must stay."
It was an absurd banquet, which ended with the Crown Prince of Zhou being blinded and Xu Zhu having an extra son.
When the dinner was over and there was no one around, a small figure secretly got up from the bed and went to the Imperial Master's Mansion according to the direction he remembered.
Xu Zhu felt extremely complicated as he looked at the little kid who was only as tall as his thigh.
This is his and her son.
The big and the small looked at each other through the door. The little kid was picking his fingers nervously, looking uneasy.
They all said that this man was his father, the renowned Imperial Preceptor of Qianqiu Nation...
Everyone in the palace said that the Imperial Master was handsome and graceful, with an angelic appearance, and was the most elegant and extraordinary man in the world.
A man who is so high and mighty must have a bad temper, and might even let someone beat him up...
Seeing that Naituanzi's expression kept changing, Xu Zhu sighed and spoke first.
"It's cold outside, come in first."
Milk ball nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and followed Xu Zhu into the house.
Xu Zhu poured him a cup of hot water:
"Does she know that you came to see me?"
Milk ball shook his head, took the cup of water, and felt uneasy.
The cold night in deep winter was already freezing, and he was wearing thin clothes. His hands holding the teacup were frozen red.
Seeing this, Xu Zhu grabbed his hand and prepared to use his internal energy to drive away the cold.
The little girl trembled, feeling a little scared, but when she thought of her purpose tonight, she suppressed her fear and let him do what he wanted.
Xu Zhu was worried that his meridians were still shallow and could not withstand his deep internal force, so he tried to release a thread-like amount of internal force into his meridians.
However, the next moment, he looked at the milk ball with a little surprise.
The meridians are wide and the dantian is stable. Who would have thought that this frail little guy is actually a martial arts genius?
Xu Zhu: "Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
He had no experience dealing with children, and when he opened his mouth, it didn't sound like a conversation between a father and son at all, but more like a conversation between a master and a follower.
The milk ball puffed up his cheeks.
"I want to do a blood test to identify my kinship."
He returned to the bedroom and heard the conversation between the palace maids, only to find out that his identity had caused great trouble to Quan Jiu.
If he was not her child, Lord Liang could not force her anymore. Although the fact that they were not related by blood made him uncomfortable, he did not want to see her being threatened.
"Are you not afraid of pain?"
Xu Zhu never expected that this child, who hadn't even grown all his hair yet, would go to such lengths for Quan Jiu.
