When Qian Jiujiu said this, not only did General Liu almost vomit blood in anger, but everyone else also looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering how could Qian Jiujiu say that.
Mu Yexiao cooperated well and hid Qian Jiujiu behind him, a little worried that General Liu would get angry and said, "General Liu, my princess is quite naughty."
"hope you do not mind."
I don't mind! General Liu glanced at Qian Jiujiu and said, "You have no sense of shame."
After saying these four words, Qian Jiujiu looked even more innocent: "You stared at me, how come I became shameless? It's because you are too old."
"You are still looking at the little girl shamelessly. If you keep looking, this princess is not yours, huh, you old thing."
The emperor felt very happy in his heart, but General Liu was ashamed. He had fought on the battlefield all his life, but he never thought that he would die in old age.
He was even chased by a little girl and called an old thing. He could not help but look at the emperor with anger on his face: "Your Majesty, do you allow people to insult your old minister like this?"
The emperor was obviously in a much happier mood. He looked at General Liu and said, "General Liu, it was you who was wrong in the first place. Why did you keep looking at Princess Xiao like that?"
"What do you want to do?"
General Liu felt a little depressed. What else could he do? Could it be that he really looked at Qian Jiujiu? His eyes were threatening! Couldn't these people see it
Mu Yesheng saw that his grandfather was defeated by Qian Jiujiu and couldn't help but look at Qian Jiujiu. At this time, Qian Jiujiu was hiding tightly behind Mu Yexiao.
She was afraid that General Liu would suddenly snatch her away, and she was so angry that she couldn't say anything. Now the matter was stuck here, and the emperor also agreed with Qian Jiujiu's words.
This imperial edict will not be taken back. He looked at General Liu and said, "General Liu, you have heard it too. My imperial edict is as good as a promise. There is no reason to take it back."
"As for Mu Yesheng, let's do a blood test. If he is my prince, I will feel more at ease. If he is not my child, don't blame me for being rude."
General Liu was so angry that his eyes bulged out. The emperor in front of him seemed like a different person and suddenly no longer took him seriously, but he could not do anything.
After all, he would never rebel until the last step. He clenched his hands tightly. Was he going to take this loss today? But if the blood test was really done, wouldn't that mean Mu Yesheng would never be able to gain a firm position in the royal family in the future
More and more anger accumulated in General Liu's heart, and he was about to explode, but he heard Mu Yesheng's voice: "I'll test it. Didn't you say that blood test is a way to identify relatives? This prince will test the blood."
General Liu and Concubine Xiang looked at Mu Yesheng in shock. Concubine Xiang was so aggrieved that she couldn't stop crying. She looked at Mu Yesheng and suddenly closed her eyes.
She suddenly felt a little confused. What on earth had she been fighting for in her life? Was it for this man who had never even taken a serious look at her
Or was it for the family that had been gone for decades? The desolate feeling in her heart made her lose all energy.
Although the emperor was a little surprised at Mu Yesheng's words, he agreed and let him test it. However, the emperor became more wary of Mu Yesheng.
How dark must be the heart of a person who can endure such insults without showing any emotion
The imperial physician saw that the matter had been confirmed before he could express his opinion. In desperation, the imperial physician brought a bowl of water and took a drop of the emperor's blood.
Then he took another drop of Mu Yesheng's blood. Without any surprise, the two drops of blood merged together, which meant that they were undoubtedly father and son. Mu Yesheng looked at the emperor calmly.
"Father, do you have any other instructions? If not, I want to take mother back to rest."
The emperor looked at Mu Yesheng's calm expression, only frowned, but didn't say anything. Finally, he waved his hand and said, "Go down."
Mu Yesheng left with Concubine Xiang and General Liu. Inside the Qiankun Palace, the Queen Mother looked at the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, what kind of thing are you doing?"
"No matter how many opinions you have about the Liu family and Xiangpin, it has nothing to do with Mu Yesheng. Sheng'er is a child of the royal family."
The emperor snorted coldly: "If he still remembers that he is a child of the royal family, then that's good. Well, let's just disperse if there's nothing else to do. I still have some memorials to review."
After hearing the emperor's order to drive them out, the group of people had no choice but to walk out. The queen mother still looked at Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu unwillingly: "You two were in there the whole time?"
"Explain quickly, what happened?"
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other. Qian Jiujiu felt embarrassed at all. If she had known earlier, she would have held back her laughter. This way, Xiangpin wouldn't have asked her what she was laughing at.
It would not remind the emperor that he could use this sentence to insult Mu Yesheng and Xiangpin. Mu Yexiao looked at the empress dowager: "Grandmother, if you want to know, go ask my father."
"The princess has been standing in the palace for a long time and is a little tired. My grandson will take her back first."
After saying this, he said goodbye to the Queen and Concubine Qing and left with Qian Jiujiu. The Queen Mother was so angry with Mu Yexiao that she yelled at the Queen and Concubine Qing.
She was so dissatisfied: "Tell me, what does Mu Yexiao mean by this? He treats her like a treasure. Who hasn't given birth to a child? But if she just stood there for a while, it would be fatal."
The Queen and Imperial Concubine Qing were very dissatisfied after hearing this, but because the other party was the Queen Mother, they dared not say a word. Imperial Concubine Qing just looked at the Queen Mother.
"Empress Dowager, I have some things to do in the palace, so I will take my leave now."
Having said that, she turned around and left without waiting for the Queen Mother to answer. The Queen Mother was stunned. She pointed at Concubine Qing and spoke to the Queen.
"Look at her, look at her attitude. Did I tell her to leave? The son is like this, and the mother is also like this. They both don't take me seriously, do they?"
The queen coughed twice. The empress dowager's words made Concubine Qing unhappy, and she herself was also a little unhappy. Although she was her aunt, she didn't want to serve her anymore.
"Mother, I think it's getting late. You should hurry back to the palace."
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment: "Why, you are on their side too? What's wrong with your brain? That Mu Yexiao has no respect for the inferiors. If he gets promoted in the future, what will we have to do with him?"
The queen was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect the queen mother to think this way. She glanced at the queen mother and raised her voice a little: "Queen mother, don't mess around. The emperor has his own opinion on this matter."
The Queen Mother looked disappointed and poked the Queen's temple with her hand: "You are stupid, aren't you? The Emperor has his own ideas. Look at the Emperor now. Apart from that mother and son, who else is on his mind?"
The Queen frowned and sighed, knowing that if she didn't explain the matter clearly, the Queen Mother would not let it go. However, if the Queen Mother knew, it would probably not be a good thing.
He glanced at the Queen Mother and said, "Mother, please come back to the palace with me. I have something to tell you. Remember to keep it a secret. This matter is very important."
When the Queen Mother saw the serious face of the Queen, she knew that this was really a big deal. She couldn't help but become serious as well and followed the Queen to her palace.
Then the Queen and she were in the hall. The Queen whispered something in the Queen Mother's ear, and the Queen Mother's eyes suddenly widened.
"You're telling the truth."
The queen nodded: "How could my daughter-in-law lie to you about such an important matter?"
Seeing that the Queen Mother believed it, the Queen also breathed a sigh of relief: "You must remember this in the future. You can't tell anyone about this matter. Do you understand?"
The Queen Mother hummed, "Don't worry. Am I the talkative person? No wonder I said that! You can't control her with such means. That's enough. I'm tired too."
"I will go back first."
Seeing the Queen Mother leave, the Queen's heart was beating fast, and she didn't know whether the secret would be exposed in advance. Thinking of this, she shook her head and said that she had already said it, so let it go.
Things were quiet on the Queen's side, and although Xiangpin's palace was downgraded, her residence had not changed. It was still the palace where she lived when she was a virtuous concubine.
At this time, General Liu was looking at Mu Yesheng with a stern look on his face: "Why did you agree to this out of the blue? It really pissed me off. I think the emperor with the last name Mu is too stable."
Mu Yesheng looked at General Liu, and at this moment he suddenly understood why his father regarded this family as a big enemy and wanted to execute the whole family.
Anyone would be furious if someone like this threatened you with the throne all the time. General Liu kept talking, but seeing that Mu Yesheng and Xiangpin didn't say anything today.
"Why aren't you talking? Speak up, do you have any objections? They're all dead, right? I've never been so angry in my life."
Mu Yesheng watched as General Liu only cared about the fact that he had been offended today, but never thought about their feelings. Perhaps he and his mother were just pawns in the hands of these people.
But why hadn't he noticed it before? Seeing that the two men were still silent, General Liu couldn't help but get angry and his face turned pale. He slapped the table and said, "Are you two talking?"
Mu Yesheng finally raised his head and looked at General Liu: "What does grandpa want to do?"
General Liu was stunned for a moment, looking at Mu Yesheng, and suddenly understood what this meant. What did he want to do
"Sheng'er, aren't you angry about what you said?"
Mu Yesheng snorted coldly: "Isn't it always like this in the eyes of me, my mother, and my father? It's normal for something like this to happen, isn't it?"
These words really made General Liu speechless and he could only look at Mu Yesheng.
