Chapter 225 Emperor Tianzhi shed blood to recognize his relatives
Emperor Tianzhi looked at Jia Yun with an angry look on his face: "Is this article really written by Yao Sili?"
After Emperor Tianzhi read the narrative twice carefully, he felt that the things written in this narrative were probably true.
Because the narrative describes the events of that year in detail, including some details.
Also because Shui Rong suddenly ran away with his family, probably because of this shocking case.
However, Emperor Tianzhi still wanted to get to the bottom of it. After all, the case was really important and made him really angry.
Jia Yun said: "It is undoubtedly true! Your Majesty, this time I also brought some letters written by Yao Sili. You can confirm it by comparing the notes."
Jia Yun took out a stack of letters written by Yao Sili and handed them to Emperor Tianzhi from Qiu Shian. Emperor Tianzhi carefully compared the notes and found that they were consistent.
Emperor Tianzhi asked: "Didn't you capture Yao Sili?"
Jia Yun said: "Because this matter is so serious, I have asked the Qianhu Office of Jinyi Mansion in Yangzhou to temporarily block Yao Mansion, and have taken Yao Sili, his mother, wife, and eldest son into Shenjing City. They are currently outside the palace."
"Bring them in!" Emperor Tianzhi shouted angrily.
Qiu Shi'an went outside the palace again. When he came back, a group of palace guards escorted Yao Sili, his mother, wife, and eldest son.
In the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Tianzhi personally interrogated Yao Sili and the four others.
This time Yao Sili still looked like a living dead. After being escorted into Qianqing Palace by the palace guards and kneeling down, he did not say a word when facing the interrogation of Emperor Tianzhi. Even if Emperor Tianzhi asked the palace guards to torture Yao Sili, Yao Sili did not say a word.
explain.
But Yao Sili's mother, wife, and eldest son didn't know this shocking secret.
One of the key points of Emperor Tianzhi's interrogation was what happened to his biological son back then, whether he was killed by Shuizhen or whether he is still alive now...
Although Yao Sili didn't say a word, Emperor Tianzhi felt that Yao Sili's silence was equivalent to acquiescence.
Emperor Tianzhi was about to go to the Yangxin Hall next door to summon Duan Qingwan, but for a while he couldn't even care about Jia Yun's fulfillment of the emperor's order.
Emperor Tianzhi asked the palace guards to escort Yao Sili and the four of them out of the palace, and handed them over to Jinyi of Jinyi Mansion again, and asked Jia Yun to wait in Qianqing Palace.
Unexpectedly, Jia Yun said: "Your Majesty, there is another important matter. I think it would be best to report it immediately."
Emperor Tianzhi asked: "What's the matter?"
Jia Yun said: "Wei Chen used to think that he was a descendant of the Rongguo Mansion and a descendant of the Jia family. However, just before the emperor promoted Wei Chen to the second rank, my mother suddenly confessed her life experience to me.
puzzle."
Emperor Tianzhi frowned.
Jia Yun told Emperor Tianzhi exactly what Bu Wuniang had said to him.
Jia Yun emphasized that it was because Bu Wuniang had promised Jia Daihua that she would not tell anyone about it, including him. After he was promoted to a second-grade official, Bu Wuniang felt really guilty and uneasy, so she confessed to him.
about this matter.
Emperor Tianzhi couldn't help but widen his eyes. After being shocked by Yao Sili's narrative just now, he was shocked again.
He never expected that Jia Yun was not a bloodline of the Rongguo Mansion or a descendant of the Jia family.
He also immediately realized that Jia Yun might be his and Qingwan's real son!
Jia Yun continued: "After my mother told Wei Chen about this, Wei Chen was both shocked and questioning. He felt that the matter was strange. If I am really the son of Shuizhen, why do the Shui family still not recognize me?"
"It's not that Wei Chen is arrogant. Wei Chen is a young man called Wu Liuyuan, and he has been promoted step by step in the officialdom under the emperor's favor. Under such circumstances, even if Wei Chen is the son of Shui Zhen and Hua Oiran, the Shui family should recognize it now.
I'm the."
"Because he questioned the matter, and Wei Chen was in a hurry to go south to fulfill the emperor's orders. The emperor's orders were the most important, so Wei Chen did not bother to investigate the matter for a while. He originally planned to investigate after completing the emperor's orders and returning to Beijing.
.”
"Weichen didn't expect that he would discover his true life experience by chance in Yangzhou this time!"
Having said this, Jia Yun stopped and looked up at Emperor Tianzhi.
Emperor Tianzhi stared at Jia Yun with wide eyes: "Do you want to tell me that you are my son back then?"
Jia Yun said: "Weichen has had an egg-like birthmark on his abdomen since he was born. Please allow your Majesty to show it to Weichen."
Emperor Tianzhi said in a deep voice: "Yes!"
Jia Yun took off her black Feiyu suit, opened her inner garment, and revealed her abdomen in front of Emperor Tianzhi.
Emperor Tianzhi asked Jia Yun to come forward and take a closer look with his own eyes. He found that Jia Yun indeed had an egg-like birthmark on his abdomen similar to that of him and Emperor Kangxing!
However, Emperor Tianzhi did not believe that Jia Yun was his son.
This fact is really a coincidence. Jia Yun just learned that he was the son of Shuizhen before going south to Yangzhou, but found Yao Sili's narrative in Yangzhou, and he happened to be the real son of Emperor Tianzhi...
When it comes to the truth about the prince, Emperor Tianzhi will naturally be cautious, not to mention that he has been deceived once in this matter, and has been deceived for so many years...
Immediately, Emperor Tianzhi sent people to Jia Yun's house to summon Bu Wuniang. At the same time, he sent people to the imperial hospital to invite an imperial doctor who was good at paternity testing. He also sent people to summon the sixth prince Xia Xu.
During this period, Jia Yun stayed in Qianqing Palace to wait, while Emperor Tianzhi went to Yangxin Palace and summoned Duan Concubine Qingwan.
Qingwan is in her thirties this year. In this world of red mansions, although a woman in her thirties is considered old, Qingwan does not appear old. She is as beautiful as a fairy and has a dignified manner.
In terms of appearance, Qingwan is on the same level as Qin Keqing and Li Feixue, otherwise the Shui family would not have sent her to seduce Emperor Tianzhi, nor would they have charmed Emperor Tianzhi.
When Qingwan appeared in front of Emperor Tianzhi, Emperor Tianzhi subconsciously widened his eyes.
The reason is that Qingwan and Jia Yun have similar looks!
Although Jia Yun is now a brave young man, his appearance is still relatively gentle and delicate, and his appearance is distinctive. In this case, it can be observed that Qing Wan's appearance is similar to Jia Yun.
In the past, Emperor Tianzhi had never thought that Qingwan and Jia Yun were mother and son, so he would not connect the two together at all, and he did not notice that Qingwan and Jia Yun had similar looks.
And now Emperor Tianzhi has discovered this!
"I wonder why the emperor suddenly summoned my concubine?"
After Qingwan bowed to Emperor Tianzhi, she smiled brightly and asked.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Tianzhi looked gloomy and asked in a deep voice: "What is your relationship with the Shui family?"
Qingwan's expression suddenly changed when she heard this, and she was stunned...
Seeing Qingwan's appearance, Emperor Tianzhi shouted in a deep voice: "You are so brave!"
Qingwan quickly knelt on the ground.
Emperor Tianzhi asked: "Are you a secret agent trained by the Shui family?"
Qingwan's expression became sad: "How did the emperor know?"
She has concealed this matter for more than ten years and has not leaked it for more than ten years. She also held out hope that Emperor Tianzhi would never know about it in her life. However, today she was suddenly interrogated by Emperor Tianzhi about it.
Emperor Tianzhi snorted coldly and immediately gave the narrative written by Yao Sili to Qingwan.
Qingwan's face was full of shock and anger after reading this narrative carefully.
She didn't expect that Shuizhen and Yao Muchun would conspire to secretly exchange her son. She didn't expect that the prince Xia Xu, whom he had doted on for more than ten years, would turn out to be not her real son, but Shuizhen's son!
Qingwan's eyes widened: "Your Majesty, this...is this true? Xu'er is not your or my royal son?"
Emperor Tianzhi said in a deep voice: "You still haven't been honest with me now?"
Qingwan's expression became sad again. She originally cared about the Shui family, but now that she knew that the Shui family had done such things to her, she naturally hated the Shui family.
In the midst of sadness, Qingwan frankly told Emperor Tianzhi everything about herself.
She said that she was raised by the Shui family, and therefore was trained to be a secret agent of the Shui family. She was sent to the Yao Mansion in Yangzhou many years ago. The Shui family wanted her to become the concubine of Emperor Tianzhi, who was still the prince at the time.
…
However, because she had given birth to a son for Emperor Tianzhi and had a true love for Emperor Tianzhi, when she brought her son to Shenjing City and was taken in by Emperor Tianzhi, she did not want to be the Shui family's spy against Tianzhi.
Rule the emperor.
At that time, she confessed to the Shui family, saying that she did not want to be a spy against Emperor Tianzhi, but she would not betray the Shui family and was willing to commit suicide. She only asked the Shui family not to expose her identity as a spy and not to hurt Xia Xu.
The Shui family was actually very tolerant of her, allowing her to stop being a spy, and promised not to expose her identity as a spy, allowing her to stay with Emperor Tianzhi to raise Xia Xu with peace of mind.
Qingwan was confused about this at the time and didn't think the Shui family would be so kind. Later, the Shui family did so.
But now Qingwan suddenly realized that the reason why the Shui family was so kind back then was because Xia Xu was not the son of Emperor Tianzhi and her, but the son of Shuizhen who had been exchanged!
For more than ten years, the Shui family has been in close contact with Xia Xu. Shui Rong and Xia Xu are still close friends. Now Qingwan suddenly realizes this!
As for the reason why the Shui family exchanged the son of Emperor Tianzhi, although Yao Sili did not write it clearly in the narrative, he just mentioned "the plot is very big".
However, Emperor Tianzhi and Qingwan were both smart people, and they could guess like Jia Yun that the Shui family's actions might mean that the Shui family had already turned against them and was planning to support Xia Xu as emperor in the future. In this way,
Occupy Qing Dynasty!
After Qingwan said all this frankly, she nervously asked Emperor Tianzhi: "Your Majesty, is it true that Xu'er is not our prince? How is your prince doing now?"
Qingwan felt that if Xia Xu was really not the son of Emperor Tianzhi and her, but was indeed exchanged back then, then Emperor Tianzhi and her son might have been killed that year.
Emperor Tianzhi snorted: "I am investigating this matter, please go back to the palace!"
After saying that, Emperor Tianzhi stood up and walked out of Yangxin Palace and returned to Qianqing Palace.
At this time, the imperial doctor who is good at paternity testing has arrived, but Bu Wuniang and Xia Xu have not come yet.
After a while, Bu Wuniang came and was led into the bright room of Qianqing Palace. It was easy to see that Bu Wuniang was in a panic.
Can you not panic? I was suddenly summoned by the emperor, and it was about Jia Yun's life experience.
Although Jia Yun had asked Yu Zhu to convey a message to Bu Wuniang in advance, Bu Wuniang was still worried that the fact that Jia Yun was Shuizhen's son would cause danger to Jia Yun and her family. But Bu Wuniang was I heard about Shui Rong and his family members' escape not long ago.
In a panic, Bu Wuniang bowed to Emperor Tianzhi.
Without waiting for Emperor Tianzhi to ask, Jia Yun said: "Mother, the emperor summoned you this time to ask about my life experience. You must truthfully report back to the emperor everything you told me about my life experience before I went south to Yangzhou!"
Jia Yun was afraid that Bu Wuniang would not tell the truth, so she reminded her again in person to prevent Bu Wuniang from lying and causing self-defeation.
Bu Wuniang said "hmm" and did not lie. She told the truth in detail in front of Emperor Tianzhi.
Emperor Tianzhi specially observed Bu Wuniang's appearance and found that Bu Wuniang was only of average appearance. Not to mention that she was older now, even when she was twenty years old, she should not be considered a beauty, which meant She doesn't look like a mother who could give birth to such a handsome boy like Jia Yun.
And Qingwan and Jia Yun have similar looks...
Despite this, Emperor Tianzhi still did not fully believe that Jia Yun was his and Qingwan's son.
At this time, Xia Xu came to Qianqing Palace.
After Xia Xu walked into the Mingjian and found Jia Yun here, he subconsciously felt unhappy. However, he naturally did not care about Jia Yun at the moment. After bowing to Emperor Tianzhi, he smiled and asked: "Father, I didn't know that you sent someone to summon your son." What do you want me to do?"
Emperor Tianzhi frowned subconsciously.
Emperor Tianzhi was indeed very kind to his five remaining sons. Even though Xia Xu was born to Duan's concubine Qingwan, and had an arrogant and frivolous personality, and was incompetent in literature and martial arts, Emperor Tianzhi still cared about Xia Xu.
However, now that Emperor Tianzhi saw Xia Xu, he subconsciously felt disgust and even hatred.
Naturally, Emperor Tianzhi would not give Xia Xu a good look. He ignored Xia Xu and directly ordered the imperial doctor who had been standing in the bright room: "Mr. Hua, you can combine blood with me and the two of them!"
Xia Xu was stunned when he heard this. What's going on? Combined blood? Father, himself, Jia Yun?
Xia Xu quickly asked: "Father, why is this?"
Emperor Tianzhi shouted angrily: "Shut up!"
Xia Xu: "..."
Bu Wuniang was also dumbfounded at this time, and she didn't know what was going on.
Jia Yun and Imperial Physician Hua were not dumbfounded. Before Bu Wuniang and Xia Xu came, Emperor Tianzhi had already said that the blood would be combined.
The so-called blood union means to recognize relatives by dripping blood!
In this era, it was naturally impossible to identify blood relationships through chromosomes or DNA. To identify blood relationships, blood was usually used to identify relatives. This method of identifying relatives in previous lives was still used until the 19th century.
Imperial Physician Hua said respectfully to Emperor Tianzhi: "Your Majesty, do you really want me to take your blood?"
Emperor Tianzhi said in a deep voice: "Just do as you are told, I won't blame you!"
The emperor is a man of great wealth. Even taking one drop of the emperor's blood is no small matter, and this time two drops of Emperor Tianzhi's blood are needed.
Throughout history, some emperors would not allow this to happen.
Emperor Tianzhi doesn't care much about this kind of thing. What he cares about right now is whether Jia Yun is his son!
As for Xia Xu, even if he hadn't made a blood confession yet, Emperor Tianzhi had almost confirmed that Xia Xu was not his son but Shuizhen's son!
Immediately, Imperial Physician Hua took out two vessels, put a drop of Jia Yun's blood into one vessel, and dropped a drop of Xia Xu's blood into the other vessel.
Imperial Physician Hua walked to Emperor Tianzhi with two vessels, carefully took two drops of Emperor Tianzhi's blood, and dropped them into the two vessels respectively...
