Chapter 127 Father and son recognize each other, the truth behind the book
Bai Taotao stood aside and looked at Lu Jiuyuan, who was stiff as a statue:
She is against blood test to identify her kinship, as it is not accurate.
In particular, in the original work, the plot is still controlled by the author.
Whether blood can be mixed or not is up to the author.
Thinking of this, Bai Taotao was a little worried, fearing that the original author would give her a big plot twist!
After all, the ancients believed in blood test to identify relatives!
The waiting time is always long.
Bai Taotao thought that the blood drops were about to disperse and turn into blood water.
She saw with her own eyes that the four drops of blood completely merged together and became one drop!
That drop of blood was very clear in the clear water!
Emperor Shengzong, who had been craning his neck in anticipation, watched the blood drops merge together. He raised his hands in joy and cheered, "The blood drops of Sanbao and the Crown Prince have merged together."
Emperor Shengzong even hugged Lu Jiuyuan happily: "I am finally a grandfather, a biological grandfather, a biological grandfather."
Lu Jiuyuan was still standing there in a daze, staring at the blood beads merging together in the bowl of clear water.
There is a feeling of disbelief, as if pie has fallen from the sky, no, it feels like three treasures have fallen from the sky.
So unreal, so ethereal.
It was like a dream, hard to believe and unreal.
Emperor Shengzong was even happier than Lu Jiuyuan. He had already picked up the bowl of clear water mixed with blood beads and came over one by one.
"See? Sanbao's blood beads and the prince's blood beads have merged together. Their blood is intertwined. They are biological children."
The person being questioned was a commoner. It was his first time to be in such close contact with the emperor, and he was so nervous that he couldn't speak.
Emperor Shengzong ignored him and just held the water with blood beads and asked them one by one.
That excited look was even more dramatic than Lu Jiuyuan who was standing there in a daze.
Sanbao looked up at Bai Taotao.
"Prince Daddy, are you really our biological father?"
Sanbao asked cautiously, a little afraid that it might not be true.
Their joy would be in vain.
Although I knew before that the prince was looking for a woman with a red mole, that woman was my mother.
But they thought that the prince wanted to kill the woman with the red mole, and they didn't know there was such a complicated relationship.
Bai Taotao bent down and looked down at them: "Yes, Lu Jiuyuan is your biological father, it can't be fake."
Then Erbao and Xiaobao pinched Dabao's cheeks.
Dabao, who was afraid of the pain, immediately covered his chubby cheeks, and his big eyes turned red and filled with tears.
"It hurts, oooo."
Dabao doesn’t like to cry, but he is extremely afraid of pain. The slightest pain will be magnified tenfold.
His pain is very real.
Erbao and Xiaobao nodded in satisfaction: "It's true, it's not a dream."
"Daddy."
Erbao and Xiaobao happily rushed towards the still dazed Lu Jiuyuan, each hugging his thigh.
He called out "Daddy" in a baby voice, full of joy.
Dabao also ran over crying, raised his chubby head, and cried out, "Daddy, it hurts, Daddy, hold me."
Lu Jiuyuan seemed to come back to his senses and looked down at Sanbao.
Erbao and Xiaobao are like pendants hanging on his legs, and Dabao is just a chubby little pitiful thing.
This time, Lu Jiuyuan truly felt Erbao's complete dependence and closeness to him.
In the past, Erbao also acted coquettishly towards him, but it felt like there was still a little bit of a gap, and he always kept a distance.
But this time, Erbao also rushed to hug him, calling him Daddy with all his heart. Lu Jiuyuan felt like he was pulled back from the misty clouds, and he felt a sense of security.
Lu Jiuyuan looked at them seriously, then said word by word: "Dabao, Erbao, Xiaobao, I, I am your father, your biological father."
He didn't know how to express his joy at the moment. No words could express it.
He had three children. His first woman, the woman he loved, his wife, and the mother of his children were all Bai Taotao.
This joy cannot be expressed in words.
The three treasures all tilted their heads back, smiling sweetly and happily: "I am your child, your biological child."
Lu Jiuyuan smiled, a gentle smile like a spring breeze.
He bent down, picked up Xiaobao first, and put him on his neck, then held Dabao and Erbao in each hand.
No one is left behind.
Bai Taotao stood in front of him and looked up at him: "You have Sanbao, what about me?"
"You want the child, but not the mother?"
There was a hint of resentment in her words, but her eyes were bright, and there was a glimmer of happiness and satisfaction in them.
Lu Jiuyuan already had a treasure in each hand and another on his neck.
He looked at Bai Taotao and said without hesitation: "Then I'll carry you on my back, and you can come up by yourself."
Bai Taotao looked at his serious expression and smiled with her long eyebrows curved.
Lu Jiuyuan was stunned by her smile.
Our own Crown Princess is just beautiful.
As for anger and rage, they had long been replaced by joy.
On this side, Emperor Shengzong was still holding his bowl and asking questions one by one.
No, it's about showing off the past.
Finally, they arrived in front of the Queen and Lu Linyuan.
Emperor Shengzong looked at them and said, "See? Sanbao is the prince's child, his biological child."
"This time, I really want to thank you. If you hadn't found Yang Jiawang, if you hadn't caused the blood test to happen."
"I don't know when I will know that Sanbao is my own grandson."
"Now you know why Erbao looks like Yang Jiawang, right? Because nephews resemble their uncles! It's not surprising that the prince's biological child looks like his maternal grandfather."
Emperor Shengzong seemed to be stabbing the Queen's heart: "Queen, you have done a great job this time."
The Queen didn't dare to take credit for it, so she said with a forced smile, "Congratulations, Your Majesty."
What can I say at this time?
The blood test to identify kinship is so strict that there is absolutely no possibility of tampering.
Sanbao must be the prince's biological child.
Emperor Shengzong was overjoyed and waved his hand, "I am delighted to have three wonderful grandchildren. All but the richest merchants in the country will be exempted from taxes for three years, and prisoners sentenced to less than ten years will be pardoned!"
When Emperor Shengzong said this, the people were the happiest.
The people knelt down to express their gratitude: "Your Majesty is wise, congratulations to Your Majesty, and we respectfully welcome the return of the young prince and princess."
Once Emperor Shengzong's words were spoken, even if some people still doubted that Sanbao was not the prince's biological child, there would be no more doubts.
Three years of tax exemption and amnesty for the world!
Such benefits are basically only available when a new emperor ascends the throne!
Now that the prince and Sanbao have recognized each other, they have such benefits. Even if Sanbao is not their biological child, they will still say that he is their biological child!
In short, the ones who benefit are millions of ordinary people!
After showing off the blood-melting bowl in a good mood, Emperor Shengzong went back to fight with Lu Jiuyuan for the three treasures.
Lu Jiuyuan didn't give it to him.
Emperor Shengzong glanced at him and said, "Don't forget your wife when you have a child."
"I'll hold Sanbao, and you hold the Crown Princess."
Then Emperor Shengzong extended his hand towards Xiaobao.
Xiaobao obediently came down from Lu Jiuyuan's neck and crawled into Emperor Shengzong's neck.
Dabao and Erbao also swiftly got down from Lu Jiuyuan's arms and hugged Emperor Shengzong's thighs.
They are good babies and should give their parents a chance to be alone.
Emperor Shengzong, carrying the three treasures like pendants, walked out with a domineering attitude that did not recognize any relatives: "Return to the palace and circle the city!"
He wants to show off his good grandson!
Lu Jiuyuan looked down at Bai Taotao.
Bai Taotao felt that his eyes were a little cold and sharp, as if he was going to settle a score.
Bai Taotao wanted to run away, but she laughed and said, "Well, I'll go talk to Father first...ah!"
Before she could finish her words, Lu Jiuyuan picked her up horizontally.
"Crown Princess, please return to the palace and have a good talk with me first!"
Bai Taotao raised her arms and hugged Lu Jiuyuan's neck, looking straight at him: "I've already given birth to three babies for you, what else can I say?"
Lu Jiuyuan lowered his head, his eyes full of tenderness: "How about having another baby, Sanbao?"
Bai Taotao: Help!
This is fatal!
But Lu Jiuyuan really did what he said.
Emperor Shengzong brought Sanbao into the palace.
Lu Jiuyuan took Bai Taotao back to the Eastern Palace and drove the palace maids out of the palace.
On this day, all the palace servants of the Eastern Palace stood at the gate of the Eastern Palace, and were so bored that they were counting the ants in the corner and the number of floor tiles at the palace gate.
It turns out that as a palace maid, there is a day that is so idle that it makes you panic.
I really want to know how the Crown Prince interrogated the Crown Princess.
The palace maids waited until dark before entering the palace and began to work in an orderly manner.
Meanwhile, Bai Taotao looked at the sated Lu Jiuyuan with a face full of charm and resentment: "Prince, you are such a dog! You dog prince, you are such a dog!"
Although it was a curse, Lu Jiuyuan liked it very much.
"Beating is affection, scolding is love. I know how much the Crown Princess loves me."
Bai Taotao covered her left waist. Lu Jiuyuan nibbled at the cinnabar mole on her waist repeatedly, as if he wanted to bite it off and tear her into his stomach.
Then he turned her over and over, this way and that.
Because she didn't admit in time that she was the woman with the red mole, Bai Taotao couldn't leave the room for at least three days.
Day 4.
Lu Jiuyuan finally decided to let Bai Taotao go because he had to get busy.
The incident of him being defeated and injured in battle five years ago has been investigated, but there are still follow-ups.
Huo Jingzhou and Eunuch Xi left because of this matter.
Bai Taotao's elder brother Bai Yunting returns victorious and brings more evidence, including evidence that the former Marquis of Yong'an, Bai Taotao's second uncle, is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
The former Marquis of Yong'an was a member of Lu Linyuan's party, so even if it was not Lu Linyuan's instruction, he is still guilty.
What Bai Jinfeng did, including slandering the Crown Princess's reputation and faking a pregnancy to deceive the Emperor, naturally did not have a good outcome.
Emperor Shengzong acted decisively and without further delay. Based on the abundant evidence, he issued an edict directly.
The former Marquis of Yong'an was sentenced to death and his family was exiled to the frontier!
Lu Linyuan and Bai Jinfeng were demoted to commoners and imprisoned in Prince Xian's Mansion!
The queen was deposed and sent to the cold palace!
The Duke of Anguo's title was revoked and he was exiled to the frontier...
Everything is settled.
Three months later.
In the court.
Emperor Shengzong sat on the dragon throne with the three treasures and solemnly announced: "The crown prince has an heir, and it is based on Master Yuanhong's prophecy. I hereby promote them to the titles of King Wu, King Wen, and Princess Pingle."
"My dear ministers, do you have any opinions?"
All the civil and military officials knelt down, except for the newly appointed Prime Minister Bai Xincheng, who remained standing and did not speak.
"Your Majesty, please reconsider. The Crown Prince has not yet ascended to the throne, so it is not appropriate to promote him to a Prince or Princess."
Civil and military officials gave various reasons.
Emperor Shengzong did not refute, but lowered his head and spoke to Sanbao in a low voice.
The ministers, who had talked themselves dry, said: ...
Finally, after Emperor Shengzong had listened to what he had said for two hours, all the civil and military officials were hungry, tired, and hungry, so they could not continue talking and decided to give in.
Emperor Shengzong finally spoke: "My dear ministers, your words are reasonable. I withdraw my decree to promote the three treasures and adjourn the court!"
Civil and military officials: ???
Wait, wait, when did Emperor Shengzong become so easy to talk to?
"Mr. Bai, what do you think about this matter, Your Majesty?"
Bai Xincheng simply said, "You will regret giving me advice today. The emperor is not someone who can be manipulated."
Especially after the queen was deposed, the emperor's personality changed 180 degrees.
Naturally, some civil and military officials did not believe it: "Shoufu Bai is the father of the Crown Princess and the grandfather of Sanbao. Of course, he will not dissuade something that benefits him."
However, soon, all the civil and military officials regretted it so much that their intestines turned green.
Because three days later, Emperor Shengzong actually abdicated!
Emperor Shengzong abdicated the throne to Crown Prince Lu Jiuyuan, and then Sanbao was also promoted.
The situation is worse than three days ago!
Dabao was named Prince Wu, Erbao was named Crown Prince, and Xiaobao was named Princess!
Emperor Shengzong is still in his prime, how can he abdicate!
Lu Jiuyuan is more terrifying than Emperor Shengzong, okay?
Emperor Shengzong was a wise ruler, and they could give him advice, but given Lu Jiuyuan's personality, once he came to power, he would be a tyrant!
Civil and military officials immediately protested.
Emperor Shengzong, who was already the retired emperor, had already left the imperial city with the three treasures and traveled around the world.
Just one sentence left: if you have any opinions, go find the emperor!
The newly crowned Emperor Lu Jiuyuan smiled and said, "My dear ministers, do you not accept my becoming the Emperor?"
Naturally, some people are dissatisfied.
Lu Jiuyuan was not polite either. He used Lu Linyuan's party to attack them in various ways.
They act decisively and their methods are clean and efficient.
Anyone who objects will be beaten lightly, thrown into prison or have his entire clan executed if the offense is serious!
All the civil and military officials regretted it so much that they wished they could go back to that day when Emperor Shengzong had done whatever he said.
In this way, they can work happily with the wise ruler for another twenty years and enjoy their retirement happily.
Now that the tyrant Lu Jiuyuan is in power, let alone retirement, he has even prepared his own coffin.
Lu Jiuyuan also made Bai Taotao the queen, deposed the six palace ladies, and decided not to choose another concubine in his lifetime.
More officials protested.
Lu Jiuyuan didn't kill anyone either. After all, it was not easy to train a high-ranking official.
He gave a reward!
The protesting officials were rewarded with 72 refugee women and 36 palace maids.
At first the officials were happy, because who doesn’t want a beautiful woman?
But he soon regretted it, and without Lu Jiuyuan saying anything, he gave all the concubines and maids in the backyard a sum of money to send them away.
He couldn't sleep enough, and his kidneys were weak because of it. Besides, he couldn't afford to support so many women!
At this point, no one suggested Lu Jiuyuan choose a concubine anymore.
One year later.
Lu Jiuyuan brought Bai Taotao to court, as he planned to train her to help him in government affairs.
In this way, the couple could take turns, each attending court for a day, preventing Lu Jiuyuan from being overworked and dying early.
Naturally, the civil and military officials disagreed, as it was unthinkable that a woman could rule the country.
Lu Jiuyuan simply said, "Do you still remember why the Emperor abdicated?"
This sounds very threatening!
If you guys don't agree, then Lu Jiuyuan will abdicate the throne to Bai Taotao and become the empress directly!
Naturally, all civil and military officials dared not disagree.
It doesn’t matter. Bai Taotao is the Divine Doctor Tao, Master Tao, her father is the Prime Minister, her eldest brother is the God of War, and her missing second brother is found, making her the richest man.
Oh, Bai Taotao’s mother, Liu, is the queen of the neighboring country!
Even so, she has the capital to be an empress, and she doesn't bother to fight for the throne.
I can’t afford to offend you. I can’t afford to offend you.
The emperor and empress were very powerful, so the civil and military officials lived in much greater ease and harmony.
On this day, Lu Jiuyuan and Bai Taotao were attending court.
The young apprentice that Eunuch Xi has just brought in is a newcomer and they are not familiar with each other yet.
He rushed in in a panic, his face full of fear: "Your Majesty, the little princess is using the imperial seal to smash walnuts again!"
"The little princess broke the imperial seal!"
Lu Jiuyuan was very calm: "It's okay, let her smash it. The jade seals collected by the retired emperor are enough for her to smash."
The ministers were also very calm: ...
Sad and helpless.
This was the 108th time the little princess had used the imperial seal to smash walnuts.
Just get used to it.
The little princess loves to use the imperial seal to crack walnuts, but she is not stupid. She is a little miracle doctor and the people like her very much.
Not only the emperor and empress doted on her, but the common people also doted on this mascot-like little princess.
Two years later.
Lu Jiuyuan traveled around the world with Bai Taotao, and the eight-year-old Erbao, the little prince, took on the important task of regent.
Erbao had just come to court when another eunuch came hurriedly to report: "The little princess is using the imperial seal to smash walnuts again!"
...Extra...
Seven years later.
Bai Taotao is thirty years old. She sits on the couch with a rosy face, like a blooming peach blossom, enchanting, gorgeous and stunning.
Lu Jiuyuan sat beside the bed, holding her hand, his narrow, scarlet eyes filled with tears.
"Taotao, we still have another 40 or 50 years of our lives left. How could you bear to abandon me and the children?"
"We promised to live together forever, grow old together, and never abandon each other."
But she was only thirty years old and was about to leave him.
Mingming, just a quarter of an hour ago, she was still talking about Dabao's marriage and about embroidering white words on his new jade belt.
But just a quarter of an hour later, she collapsed and was terminally ill and about to die.
The grown-up Sanbao had already burst into tears: "Mom, please don't abandon us, we don't want to be without you."
Bai Taotao looked at Sanbao with a faint smile, and she still addressed them the same way as when she was a child.
"Dabao, war is for a longer-term peace. You must always remember your original intention. Those who surrender will not be killed."
She didn't want him to turn into a bloodthirsty demon general.
"Erbao, you've been regent for seven years, so you naturally understand the art of ruling. But you must always remember to put the people first."
She didn't want Erbao to become an eternal tyrant.
"Xiaobao, you are the most well-behaved, but the love between men and women is based on sincerity. It is better to be without than to be rude, and it is better to be abandoned than to be cheap. Only when you love yourself first can you love others."
If you haven't met someone you like, don't settle.
If the person you love doesn't love you, then give up and don't be so cheap as to throw yourself at him.
I hope Xiaobao will live a happy life instead of becoming a witch queen.
After Bai Taotao gave Sanbao some instructions, she let them go.
Only Bai Taotao and Lu Jiuyuan were left in the room.
Bai Taotao looked at him and said, "Ajiu, hug me."
Lu Jiuyuan's eyes were red: "Bai Taotao, you are a woman, you should be more reserved."
Bai Taotao took the initiative to snuggle into Lu Jiuyuan's arms, hugged his thin waist, and put her little face on his chest.
"Lu Jiuyuan, don't be sad. This is the result of my hard work."
"We shouldn't have ended up like this."
"These are the ten years I stole, ten years of happiness. I'd trade the rest of my life for you, Sanbao, and those who love me. It's worth it for a happy and carefree life."
"I'm sorry, Lu Jiuyuan, I couldn't stay with you until old age, I couldn't grow old with you."
"This time, I'm going to break my promise."
Bai Taotao also thought that she could accompany Lu Jiuyuan for the rest of her life and that she could see Sanbao get married and have children.
A perfect ending to this book.
But when she fainted, she finally remembered what the modern Bai Tao said to her.
"You are Bai Taotao in the book. You have never traveled through books. It has always been you."
"You are unwilling to be a tool, unwilling to let the Three Treasures and the people you love become tools. You become the spirit of the book."
"You were enclosed in the book, cultivating for a thousand years. You used your thousand-year cultivation and your life to give flesh and blood to the people in the book, making them no longer just tools. You gave them their own thoughts and feelings."
"But you only have ten years to live."
"Bai Taotao, cherish your last ten years."
Bai Taotao snuggled in Lu Jiuyuan's arms, hugged him tightly, watched the tears falling, and thought about the conversation with Bai Tao.
I would spend the rest of my life in exchange for their ten years of happiness, in exchange for all this.
worth!
Lu Jiuyuan didn't say anything.
However, there was a wet spot on Bai Taotao's pink skirt that looked like peach blossoms.
Drops of water dripped onto her dress.
Lu Jiuyuan looked up and looked out the window: "Taotao, it's snowing."
Lu Jiuyuan carried Bai Taotao out.
Hot weather in June, snow in December.
Snow was flying all over the sky, falling on them.
His body and head were covered with a thick layer of white snowflakes.
Lu Jiuyuan carried Bai Taotao on his back, stood under the snow, and looked at the withered peach tree.
for a long time.
Lu Jiuyuan tilted his head, looked at Bai Taotao who had already closed her eyes, smiled softly, and said gently: "Taotao, look, we will grow old together hand in hand."
The snow stopped.
The snowflakes on Bai Taotao's head have melted.
But Lu Jiuyuan still has a head full of white hair.
He wants to stay with his Taotao until they grow old together.
But, Bai Taotao, you said that you are old now, so why don’t you be unreserved towards me?
