As an emperor, he can refuse anyone in other matters, but in this matter, he has no absolute reason to refuse Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan looked at Emperor Chongzhen and said: "If you don't want to cut off his crown prince position, then you have to prove that he is your son!"
Emperor Chongzhen looked at the officials present and said, "You think Lin Fan has practiced sorcery and bewitched me. Do you have any evidence?"
"Your Majesty, now that we have arrived, are you still thinking of putting the blame on others?"
Zhang Yan said in a deep voice.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, there is an ancient method of blood test. This is the best time to use this method. As long as Lin Fan and Your Majesty's blood blend, then he is Your Majesty's son."
"If Lin Fan's blood is incompatible with His Majesty's, then of course there is nothing to say. Not only will his identity as a prince be cut off, but he will also be beheaded!"
an official said.
"That makes sense!"
The other officials all said.
Emperor Chongzhen was naturally not worried that his blood was incompatible with Lin Fan's blood, so he said: "Since you are all going to do this, I promise you that if Lin Fan is my biological son, you will all wait to be punished!"
After saying that, Emperor Chongzhen turned and returned to the house. Zhang Yan left with Queen Zhou, while the officials went to the Lin Mansion to inform Lin Fan about the blood test.
"Marquis Diwu, the Queen Mother has doubts about your identity as a royal bloodline. Your Majesty has no choice but to take a blood test to test your kinship. Marquis Diwu must appear on time at the Hall of Supreme Harmony tomorrow."
An official came to the door and stood in front of Lin Fan, looking very arrogant.
"Blood test?
Are you people free?
Just look for trouble when nothing happens!"
Lin Fan said speechlessly.
"Haha! Emperor Wuhou, this is not because we are looking for trouble, but to ensure the purity of the royal bloodline, and to ensure that no one who is interested can seize the throne!"
The official sneered.
Lin Fan not only gave this official a big look, but did this old man doubt his bloodline?
So sick!
If it wasn't for my bloodline issue, I would have rebelled a long time ago, would it be my turn to be the prince?
"You! What do you mean by this?
Does it mean that my husband is not the prince?"
Nalan Yanran said angrily.
"Princess Nalan, I didn't mean that Marquis Di Wu was not the crown prince. It's just that all the results will have to wait until the blood test is done tomorrow."
After the official said that, he turned around and left.
On this day, many officials in the capital were extremely happy. Only Li Jiantai, Li Guozhen and Ni Yuanlu gathered together to drink flower wine and were very happy.
"Haha! Li Shangshu, you are in charge of the Ministry of War. I always thought you were the kind of person who doesn't understand the style. I didn't expect you to be knowledgeable about a place like this!"
Li Guozhen said with a smile.
Beside him, there were two beautifully dressed women, as were Li Jiantai and Ni Yuanlu, who were also accompanied by beauties.
"Brother Li, you still say that I am the one with the most women around you."
Li Jiantai said.
Ni Yuanlu drank a glass of wine and said: "Do you think there will be any trouble with the blood test tomorrow?
Why do I feel like things are not that simple?"
"Ni Shangshu, don't worry about this matter. Lin Fan is indeed His Majesty's biological son. I know something about this."
Li Jiantai said in a deep voice.
"you know?"
The two of them looked at Li Jiantai.
Li Jiantai sighed and said: "At the beginning, I knew a little about your Majesty raising an illegitimate child outside, but that's all."
"Li Shangshu, you have made me suffer so much! No wonder you give way to Lin Fan in the court. It turns out you know that he is the prince!"
Li Guozhen said in a deep voice.
"Alas! I wasn't sure at the time, so I didn't dare to say anything. It wasn't until later that I was sure of the matter, but at that time you had already offended him to death."
Li Jiantai said.
"Alas! Fortunately, the relationship between Lin Fan and I has been eased. I have to be careful not to offend him again in the future!"
Li Guozhen said.
"Haha! Brother Li, you don't have to worry. His Royal Highness' temperament is there. He is not a grudge-bearing person, and he only cares for the people!"
"As long as you don't go against him, you'll be fine. Besides, your son is very talented. If he has the opportunity to recommend him to His Highness, he might be put to good use."
Ni Yuanlu said.
"That's right, my son is like a dragon or a phoenix among men. There are few people in the world who can compare with him."
Li Guozhen thought of his son and couldn't help but said proudly.
The three of them drank wine and talked about the blood test. On the morning of the second day, there was an extra table in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in addition to the officials.
On the table, there are two golden bowls, each with water. Emperor Chongzhen is sitting on the dragon chair, with Zhang Yan and Queen Zhou sitting on both sides.
"What time has it been? Why hasn't Lin Fan come yet?
Could it be that you are scared?"
Zhang Yan said coldly.
Emperor Chongzhen frowned. He knew that Lin Fan was definitely not afraid. If he didn't come, he must have been delayed by other things.
Emperor Chongzhen's guess was correct. The reason why Lin Fan hadn't arrived yet was because Zhao Dashan's affairs had delayed him.
In the backyard of Lin Mansion, Lin Fan looked at the debris on the ground and gritted his teeth at Zhao Dashan.
"Your Highness, you are all villains. When you stay in Lin Mansion, you attract enemies. If you break things, villains will do their best to make up for it."
Zhao Dashan said in a deep voice.
"You make up for it?
This thing is Tang Sancai, this is blue and white porcelain! How do you make up for it?"
Lin Fan said angrily.
He had already guessed that Zhao Dashan entered the Lin Mansion for other reasons, but he did not expect that he was being chased!
However, since Zhao Dashan is a fugitive and should be wanted by the government, why would a private person come to kill him? Moreover, he broke into the Lin Mansion just to kill him. Is this risking his life?
"This... villain is willing to die to apologize!"
Zhao Dashan Road.
"That's all! If you want to die to apologize, you might as well be killed directly. From today on, you will live in the Baihu Division of Jinyiwei."
Lin Fan said in a deep voice.
"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zhao Dashan Road.
Lin Fan asked him to live in Jinyiwei Baihu Division, thinking that these people who broke into the Lin Mansion must be found and killed.
"Lin Fu, follow Zhao Dashan to the Yamen of Baihu Division and ask the Jinyi Guards of Baihu Division to investigate. None of these people are allowed to escape!"
Lin Fan said coldly.
Then, he set off for the imperial palace. When he arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the sun had risen.
Zhang Yan saw Lin Fan and said angrily: "Hey Lin Fan, don't you know about today's blood test?
How dare you make us wait for you for so long!"
"Fan'er! Although you were delayed by something today, you still have to apologize to the Queen Mother for keeping her waiting for so long!"
