Ye Shucheng's mind was a mess. He didn't think that his mother would harm him like this. If the other party is not disguised, could it be that he looks very similar to his mother?

"Father, the son really hasn't done it." Ye Shucheng gradually calmed down and said with a serious expression. He wanted his father to trust him, and he had never expected the trust of his relatives as he did today.

"Of the two of you, one of you is full of lies, and you say, 'Which one should I believe?' The emperor's expression made it impossible to see which one he believed more, and for a while, Ye Shucheng and Zhou Ling were both apprehensive.

"Your Majesty, let go of the book and become a ......" Zhou Ling leaned on the emperor's arms, getting weaker and weaker.

"Guifei Niangniang, why do you have to intercede for him again! In order to cover up the truth, he did not hesitate to assassinate you who had raised him for many years, so why did you cover it up for him? At this time, a maid who had been serving by Zhou Guifei's side pointed at Ye Shucheng with a sad and angry face.

Ye Shucheng's eyelids jumped involuntarily, and the ominous premonition in his heart was even worse.

As he expected, it seems that the other party wants to frame him, and it is very likely that he is framing him with his life experience.

"Wind Lotus, shut up!" Zhou Guifei didn't know where she got the strength, so she hurriedly scolded the maid, and as soon as the words fell, she kept coughing, and the blood from the wound began to flow non-stop because of her sudden force.

"What? What's the secret in this? The emperor frowned, and the girl named Fenghe, who was pressed by the majesty, hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look directly.

"Don't say it!" Zhou Guifei hurriedly stopped. Ye Shucheng's face was gloomy.

"You say. Don't hide anything, or I'll put you to death!" The emperor obviously saw that Zhou Ling and this girl were singing and singing, but he did not break it, but created opportunities and occasions for her to say it.

"The emperor forgives the sins." Feng He hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, and then looked at Zhou Guifei cautiously, and saw that Zhou Guifei seemed to feel that the overall situation could not be changed, so she silently turned her head and shed a tear.

"Your Majesty, the slave is guilty. The slave maid had long known that the concubine Niangniang might be in danger, but she still obeyed Niangniang's orders and did not stay. Niangniang is affectionate to His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and he doesn't believe that he will hurt her, but he didn't expect that in order to hide the truth, His Royal Highness was so mad that he really wanted to kill Niangniang! Fenghe snorted and cried, looking like a girl who was loyal to Concubine Zhou.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Ye Shucheng's face was gloomy like a dark cloud before a storm. I can think clearly, this girl jumped out at this time, and what she said would never be a good thing.

"The slave is not talking nonsense!" Feng He looked at Ye Shucheng stubbornly, with some fear in his expression, but when he saw Zhou Guifei's miserable situation, he seemed to have made up his mind again, and continued: "The slave didn't talk nonsense. This was not something that the slave should know, but in the end, the slave and the maid knew. If it weren't for the fact that the mother was distressed by learning the truth, she would have been drunk that day, and the slave and maid would not have been able to hear the mother's drunken words. ”

Saying that, Feng He looked at Ye Shucheng angrily and said: "Your Highness, even if you are not Niangniang's biological son, but Niangniang has raised you for many years, giving you the best of everything, and loving you as if you were your own child, how can you do it to hurt Niangniang?" ”

"Misceiving the crowd! One by one, all of you suddenly turned your backs on this king, who was the one who instructed you? "Ye Shucheng's lungs are about to explode. Sure enough, the other party's mouth is too vicious that this is not his own. Once it is confirmed that he is not a dragon son, but he has stolen the status of the prince for so many years, you can imagine how miserable his fate will be.

"Father, how can this girl's nonsense be taken seriously? Erchen has urinated in the palace since he was a child, how can he be dropped by someone? Father still remembers that his father once said that among these sons, the son is actually the most like you. The son is the child of his father, how can he be denied by the words of others? Ye Shucheng was moved with affection. He still remembered that his father had been very fond of him. In addition to the crown prince being his designated heir to the throne, and Xiao Sixteen was born with some defects, he was the one who was most relied on by his father.

He believed that his father could see through the tricks of traitors, but he was really uneasy in his heart. The father's attitude today is extremely cold, whether it is for this fake concubine or for himself, he is very stern.

He had the uneasiness that things were completely out of his control, but he didn't know when things started to go wrong.

When did the mother become like this? Obviously, the first two **** also entered the palace to see the mother concubine, and the mother concubine did not have any abnormalities at all, just like before, she was extremely concerned about him.

"Your Highness has naturally urinated in the palace since childhood. It's just that when His Royal Highness was born, he was given a bag. The concubine didn't know from beginning to end that the son she had raised and loved for many years was not her own. The mother who delivered the baby for Niangniang had already died, and the maids in Niangniang's palace either died or left for various reasons. This kind of thing often happens in the palace, so Niangniang doesn't care much about it. But not long ago, Niangniang received an anonymous letter. ”

Of course, Feng He couldn't let Ye Shucheng arouse the emperor's emotion because of a few words, so he hurriedly interrupted: "It was written in the letter that Niangniang gave birth that day, and indeed gave birth to a son, but at that time, Niangniang's son was given off by the mother who delivered the baby and replaced with someone else's son, and Niangniang's son was secretly sent out of the palace, and I don't know where he was gone." ”

"Are these true?" The emperor glanced at Zhou Ling, who was injured in his arms but never fainted, and asked lightly.

Zhou Ling pretended to be in pain, the tears in the corners of her eyes fell like beans, and she said aggrievedly: "The concubine didn't want to believe it, Shucheng was taught by the concubine with one hand, he is the son of the concubine, and the meat that fell from the concubine's body in October." It's just a letter, how can you make a concubine abandon the mother-son relationship for many years? But the concubine always cares, if the book is really not the child of the concubine, what if the concubine and the emperor's child are really outcast? The concubines were so afraid, but they were lucky, and they never dared to mention it to the emperor, so they went to check in private. ”

Saying this, Zhou Ling closed his eyes and seemed to be holding back tears.

Niangniang went to check the events of the year, and then realized that those people back then were long gone. The mother who delivered the baby died suddenly shortly after that, because the mother was already in some pain, but it did not arouse suspicion. But the more I investigated, I found that none of the maids and slaves who served Niangniang back then were gone. All of them were born shortly after the second prince was born, either he died unexpectedly, or he was old enough to leave the palace. Niangniang went to find the palace maids who were released from the palace, but unfortunately, soon after they left the palace, all of them died of illness or accident, and none of them survived......"

Feng He saw that Zhou Guifei was already sad and weak, so he said it for Zhou Guifei.

"Niangniang is always hesitant and can't make up her mind. But before Prime Minister Mei asked today, he actually said that the mastermind behind the scenes was His Royal Highness the Second Prince. Niangniang was frightened, and hurriedly asked His Highness to enter the palace. Niangniang's original intention was to ask His Highness clearly, if His Highness was wronged, then even if she tried her best, Niangniang also decided to clear His Highness's guilt and return His Highness's innocence. But if the prime minister's words are all true, Niangniang is also ready to persuade His Royal Highness to stop as soon as possible, and then go to the emperor to ask the emperor to spare His Royal Highness's life. Niangniang knew that it was dangerous to meet His Highness alone, and the slave maid was not at ease with Niangniang alone, but Niangniang insisted that His Highness was his son, even if it was not her own child, but she was also raised by a handful of and urine, and it would never be worse than the relationship between her own mother, so she ordered the slave and maid to wait outside and not enter the house. But who would have thought that His Royal Highness would still live up to Niangniang's love for his son, and he would kill Niangniang in spite of Niangniang's years of nurturing grace. “

After speaking, Feng He glared at Ye Shucheng sadly, and said resentfully: "Your Highness, even if the emperor wants to cure the slave and maid for a big crime of disrespect today, the slave and maid will definitely ask Your Highness, how can she ever be sorry for Your Highness?" Knowing that His Royal Highness may not be a parent, and knowing that the thief may have a conspiracy to steal the real second prince, but he still believes in His Highness's personality, believes that His Royal Highness will not live up to her expectations, and will not become a wicked person who hurts the emperor and his mother, but why are you so mad? Could it be that you don't care about the grace of the emperor and his mother for many years of nurturing? ”

Fenghe looked crazy for a while, if it weren't for Ye Shucheng knowing that these things were not done by him at all, but seeing Fenghe's appearance, I am afraid that I would also be moved by this loyal girl.

But at this time, Ye Shucheng was only frightened, this kind of person he trusted the most suddenly began to design his own despair, and he really realized it.

Especially seeing the emperor's suspicious gaze, Ye Shucheng felt helpless for the first time in his life.

"Father, do you really want to believe the words of this girl of unknown origin? Do you really suspect that Erchen is not your biological son? Father, whether it is a parent, the son is willing to recognize your relatives with blood, please see with your own eyes, the son has never had any betrayal to his father, to his mother, and to the country of Dacheng. Erchen was wronged, Erchen had never done the evil things that Mei Cangyun said before he died, nor had he stabbed his mother, let alone a wild species of unknown origin. As long as he can return his innocence, he is willing to pay any price, even if he dies immediately at the next moment, he has no regrets. Father, please see the heart of the minister! Ye Shucheng fell to his knees with a 'bang', and the sound of his knees touching the ground made people feel very painful. But he didn't care, he didn't even frown, he just slammed his forehead on the cold ground until his forehead was bruised.

"Shucheng, I have always valued you very much, you are intelligent, elegant, filial piety, you know how to please me, and you can complete the knowledge I have arranged very well. You are friendly to your brothers, filial to your parents, and respectful to your teachers, this is not the first time I have heard people praise you, every time I hear those words of praise, I am sincerely happy. It's just that the blood of my royal family is not a child's play. Today, you and your mother have their own words, and I have never seen what happened, and I don't know what to do with it. One of you is my pillow man, and the other is my son with my blood, and I really can't easily judge the truth of what you two say based on your preferences. Since your dispute has nothing to do with whether you are my blood, let's recognize your relatives with blood. I saw with my own eyes that if it turns out that you are really not my own son, and that you really tried to assassinate your mother in order to hide the truth, then do not blame me for being ruthless. But if it proves that you do have my blood in your body, and it was your mother and this girl who framed you, I will never spare these two people. How, are you willing to prove your identity to me? The emperor first expressed his love for Ye Shucheng in a paragraph, and then put on an iron-faced and selfless posture, all of which was proved by the results of blood recognition.

"Father, the son is willing to prove himself." Ye Shucheng didn't believe that he would be the result of someone else's tanuki replacing the prince. From childhood to adulthood, he grew up as the second prince of Dacheng. Although there were some deviations in the middle, this second prince of the Great Cheng still had some of the blood of King Yun of the Great Zhou. He did cooperate with Da Zhou, intending to seize the throne, but in the final analysis, he still recognized in his heart that he was more of a prince of Da Zhou, and his cooperation with Da Zhou was just to use them to get the throne.

But if he doesn't know who gave birth to the wild seed, but he doesn't believe it.

The loopholes are too big. Even if it had just given birth at that time, the grandmother who gave birth to the child and the palace maids and eunuchs who served at that time were all gone, how could a shrewd person like the mother not notice the abnormality.

"Well, I also believe that you will not deceive me. Su Wanfu, go prepare a bowl of water. The emperor's words revealed more trust in Ye Shucheng, which made Ye Shucheng feel a little relieved. It's just that he still feels uneasy, because he feels that since the other party has set up this game, how can he not be prepared at all.

However, how should the other party prepare? In front of his father, it was his father's henchman Su Wanfu who prepared the water, and with Su Wanfu's loyalty to his father, it was impossible for him to be bribed by others. Unless it is acquiesced by the Emperor.

Thinking of this, Ye Shucheng was shocked, but shook his head again, shaking off this unrealistic idea.

How could his father use such a method to frame him? Even if his father doesn't like him, it's not a matter of a word to kill or abolish him. Ending in such a way is not only that he will not end well, but even his father's reputation will be hit.

In the palace inside, it is easy to ask someone to transfer the dragon, if this is worn out, where will the royal face go?

Don't wait for Ye Shucheng to think wildly. It didn't take long for Su Wanfu to carry a jade bowl and put it in front of the emperor, and the emperor asked someone to find a dagger and cut a small wound on his thumb, which was only enough to squeeze out two drops of blood. Immediately, Su Wanfu brought the jade bowl to Ye Shucheng again, and at the same time handed him the dagger just now.

Ye Shucheng slashed his finger with apprehension, and a drop of blood quickly melted into the bowl.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze, and everyone held their breath. (To be continued.) )
