Chapter 460 Banquet in the Palace (4)
Lan Palace Zhu Yu, Diaoge Qi Tower. As night falls, golden plaza candles rose around the banquet, and the entire venue is as bright as daylight.
The various foods piled up on the table gradually became colder, and now no one has the heart to talk. The table is placed in the center of the venue, and Emperor Cheng Yuan’s personal sorcerer is busy conducting a blood test ceremony.
"Please ask the princess first." The sorcerer was respectful and polite. Even if Princess Yu Qiang was questioned by everyone, her great power belonged to her and her success in practicing Taoism should not be underestimated.
Princess Yu Qiang smiled quietly, stepped forward and cut her finger with a golden knife, and red blood dripped into the jade bowl. It automatically bloomed into a blood-colored rose in the empty bowl.
The roses stand gracefully and charmingly.
"The princess's spiritual power is so strong." The sorcerer next to him couldn't help but exclaim. Just looking at Princess Yu Qiang's spiritual power, I'm afraid it has reached the third level.
Then King Rui, whose blood dripped into the jade bowl, turned into a blood-colored dragon and circled around the rose flower. Then, the warlock carefully separated the origin of the dragon's blood.
"The soul of a human being comes from heaven and earth, but the body is created by his parents, and the bloodline of the paternal and maternal lineage can be clearly seen in the blood." The warlock explained while manipulating: "The princess and the prince's father are from the old concubine and the prince. In other words, the bloodline should be the same. Testing within three generations, you only need to peel off half of Prince Rui's blood source and compare with the princess." The dragon was divided into two, part of which accumulated at the bottom of the jade bowl, and the other part turned into a smaller blood dragon and flew towards the Blood Rose.
In the eyes of everyone, the results gradually became clear.
Liu Ziming and Shen Wei followed Xun Yi's instructions to go to Zhuling Temple.
On the way, the two of them vaguely felt that there were a lot of guards in the palace.
Liu Ziming said to Shen Wei: "You go to the palace gate and take a look, and then find the young master's ginseng balls. I'll go to Zhuling Temple to take a look."
The two separated, Shen Wei used his light skills to jump between the towers, and saw a large group of soldiers wearing dark armor at the door of the palace.
"Not good, these people are not guarding the palace. Could it be that there will be a change tonight?" He immediately returned to the banquet after getting the ginseng pill.
The atmosphere at the banquet was quiet, and Xun Yi and others stared at the result. Some people smiled bitterly, some people understood, some people were surprised, some people were afraid, and their expressions were just like this.
Shen Wei was not sure, so he handed the sanwan to Xun Yi and whispered: "There are soldiers outside the royal family at the gate of the palace."
A soldier outside the royal family? Xun Yi was shocked: "Which gate?"
"It seems to be Ximen?"
"Ximen? Did the general guarding the West Gate not notice it?" Xun Yi didn't care about the result and his mind flew around. Seeing that King Rui was not on his seat, he knocked on the golden plate and jade plate, indicating a warning with a secret code.
"As it true?" The seventh prince looked at the result and shook his head secretly. Rose and Youlong were clearly separated. The warlock cast spells several times to fuse them, but they were all blocked by an incompatible force.
"Princess Yu Qiang is not the bloodline of King Rui!" The Seventh Prince had no feelings for Prince Yu Qiang. After all, Prince Yu Qiang was old and the same year as his father. One was at the end of March and the other was at the beginning of April, and only one day was around. The princess was practicing Taoism on the mountain since she was a child, so he was not too sad about it. Suddenly, the Seventh Prince turned his head and looked at Xun Yi. Xun Yi learned Zhong Shi and communicated with the Seventh Prince when he was a child. When the seventh prince heard the music, he immediately calculated the code.
"There is a change in Ximen? Ambushing the troops" the seventh prince was shocked. Seeing Xun Yi shaking his head in a slight way, he immediately looked calm. He secretly sent his confidant to inquire, and on the other side tried to report to his father, mother and queen.
"Is this time going out tonight just to cover up?"
At this time, the old concubine was shocked again, sighed quietly, and stepped forward to hold Princess Yu Qiang's hand: "No matter what your background is, you are the youngest daughter whom you have loved for many years." The old concubine still wanted to maintain Princess Yu Qiang's status. Emperor Cheng Yuan thought about it and did not object. Anyway, a person born will have little impact on the dynasty.
Just as he was about to speak, an old man suddenly came: "Let's wait!"
The Taimiao Zongbo managed the royal family. The illegitimate daughter at noon was surprising. Who would have thought that Princess Yu Qiang, who was involved in Prince Rui’s Mansion?
He hurried over and said, "No, Princess Yu Qiang tested her bloodline forty years ago by the former Dai Zongbo, and she was clearly a member of the royal family!"
Every royal child will be tested for the dragon blood in his body after he is born. When Princess Yu Qiang passed the dragon blood test, if it was revealed that he was not a member of the royal family, then the Rui Palace will have at least one responsibility for unclear supervision, and even the Taimiao will involve the reputation of the previous generation of Zong Bo.
"Check Princess Yu Qiang's bloodline, who is she?" The priest of the Taimiao picked up the jade bowl and chanted the spell. The blood rose shook slightly, and a petal flew towards Prince Yi.
Seeing this, the old lady's expression changed drastically. When she was about to speak, she was dizzy and couldn't exert her strength. After all, she was old and overthinking today, her body couldn't hold on.
"Ah?" Prince Yi was only a few years older than Princess Yu Qiang, and said with a wry smile: "I am five years old. Can this be considered to be my king?"
When the initiator saw Prince Yi involved, he immediately stopped him: "Yes, what does this matter have to do with the prince? Now, helping Prince Rui's Mansion to rectify the chaos is the key." He tried to stop Zong Bo. Zong Bo glared at his eyes and forced him back: "Do away! The royal family matters, is it your turn to speak?" Zong Bo was a person who sacrificed the Taimiao. The previous generation of Zong Bo failed to observe and had a huge impact on the entire Taimiao priest system.
Uncle Zong stepped forward and dripped blood with the golden knife: "Your Majesty, you're rude."
Prince Yi obediently asked Uncle Zong to attack and laughed in his heart: "I knew that this old man had a stubborn personality, so he deliberately used this matter to lead you out of the Taimiao. If it weren't for the major event of confusing bloodline, I guess this Uncle Zong would not have been willing to leave the Taimiao, right?"
Prince Yi, although he is old, is really the sixth generation like Xun Yi. Princess Yu Qiang is the fifth generation and is still his cousin in name.
During this blood test, Prince Yi's blood turned into a blood dragon and circled around the rose. The blood dragon was then divided into two, and one of the blood dragons seemed to be melting in the rose flowers.
"It's related. The princess is related to Prince Yi's lineage!" Everyone was immediately uproared.
Not long after, the blood dragon spit out another red and golden blood bead and fell into the heart of the rose flower.
Everyone understood this moment. But some people who understood it even saw the deep meaning and looked fearful.
Prince Yi's father was the elder brother of Emperor Chengyuan, the son of Emperor Mingzong. He was expelled from the royal family because of his rebellion in the past and killed other sons of Emperor Mingzong. In the underworld, Emperor Mingzong fought with him as soon as he met. The blood of the deposed prince blended with Princess Yu Qiang, at least half of which were merged. The two came from the same father and half-brother relationship.
Emperor Chengyuan grabbed the table with his hand and couldn't help but push it off a corner. At this time, two eunuchs rushed over excitedly: "Your Majesty, you're so happy, Your Majesty!"
Two eunuchs came to report: "Empress Jing checked the records in the palace and asked about the life experience of the county magistrate, and had already found out his origin. He was the daughter born to Empress Chen during her southern tour. Your Majesty, that is your princess."
A stone caused a thousand waves, and the princes looked at Emperor Chengyuan in shock and suspicion. Then he looked at Prince Yi and Prince Rui.
Prince Wei opened his eyes wide, looked at the old concubine who almost fainted, and murmured to himself: "I'm having a big time now."
The Queen and Emperor Cheng Yuan shook their bodies and their hearts were secretly complaining.
Liu was the daughter of Emperor Chengyuan, and this can be found out with just one investigation. So the queen and Emperor Chengyuan thought of a way, and they pushed the county lord on a concubine who had died. That is, they said that they were the daughter born on a southern tour, and were thrown into the water in the name of a premature death because of palace struggles. Fortunately, the auspicious person and heavenly world made her survive.
Emperor Chengyuan and the Empress carefully fabricated this lie in order to protect their face. But now, it has become the last straw that overwhelms the camel. To be continued.
