Chapter 385: When Fake Is True, False Is True
The next day, in the Luoyang Palace, officials above the third rank of the court and the central government gathered in the Qianyuan Hall of Shangyang Palace. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Empress Dowager Zheng sat on it, and behind her stood two old eunuchs, both of whom were old men who had followed Empress Dowager Zheng for many years.
On the left are Su Guifei, the eldest prince Yang Fu, and Snow White Su Jia.
Su Min was in a very nervous mood, pursed her lips and took Fu'er's little hand, and looked at Yang Ping'an worriedly. The innocent Yang Fu was still too young to know anything about the importance of today, so he just sat beside Su Min obediently.
Su Jia was also looking at Yang Ping'an, her eyes were very resentful. She wanted to marry Yang Ping'an, the last time was when Yang Ping'an suddenly went to Jiangnan, which caused the marriage to drag on for two or three years, this time, it was okay, something like that happened on the wedding day, and the two had to wait at least another year for the marriage to be completed.
Sitting on the right side of Empress Dowager Zheng was Concubine Xiao Shu, holding her young son who was less than two years old in her arms, with a little fear in her eyes, but more excitement.
Below are the three members of the DPRK and the Central Committee, who are here to witness this blood test and determine the fate of the Tang Dynasty. Yang Ping'an also stood in the crowd.
Colliers' position in the palace today is delicate. He won Yang Rui's trust back then, and he used to be beautiful. But now his glory has been shattered with Yang Rui's death. According to the news from the Empress Dowager's palace, the Empress Dowager once blamed Yang Rui's assassination on his poor protection, but the Empress Dowager had been worshiping the Buddha for many years and didn't want to kill again, so she let him go.
He was now standing in the corner of the main hall, looking at Li Bai in the center with an expressionless face.
Li Bai has been a lot of scenery recently, and he has won the favor of the Queen Mother, and he was entrusted with the important task of being responsible for the blood test. Once the verification is over, the new emperor ascends the throne, which is equivalent to gaining the emperor's affection, as long as he is not too arrogant, his career will become much smoother.
Yang Ping'an stood among those ministers above the third grade, first gave Su Min a reassuring look, then smiled at Su Jia, and then began to touch around.
Concubine Xiao Shu was dragged down by the family a lot, just looking at the only two eunuchs who followed her, compared to the more than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs around Su Min and Su Jia waiting to serve, it was a world of difference.
However, her eyes were very confident, she had learned from Master Xiao that the reason why Yang Rui named Su Min as a concubine was completely to deal with Yang Ping'an, especially when Su Min was already pregnant with Yang Ping'an's flesh and blood.
Although Yang Rui also went to stay in the palace of the concubine before his death, he did not visit Concubine Su, and the two of them slept in separate rooms. If it weren't for Yang Rui's fear that outsiders would see that the top of his head was green, he wouldn't have gone to the Guifei Palace to stay overnight.
Therefore, Concubine Xiao Shu knew that this was her best chance to turn over, and it was also her last chance, who let Yang Rui only leave these two heirs?
This woman is nothing to worry about. Yang Ping'an secretly made an assessment, and his eyes swept to the two eunuchs behind Concubine Xiao.
Well?
Yang Ping'an's eyes lit up, and then he narrowed, staring at the other party's sleeve and falling into deep thought.
"Li Aiqing, the time has come, let's start as soon as possible." Empress Dowager Zheng was mentally exhausted, and she just wanted to learn about this matter as soon as possible and return to the palace to recite Buddha to atone for the sins of herself and her son.
Li Bai looked at Yang Ping'an, his eyes were complicated. Seeing that Yang Ping'an didn't respond, he shook his head slightly, walked to Yang Ping'an's side, and took a drop of blood from Yang Ping'an's finger and put it in a vessel.
Then he was about to go to Yang Fu's side to collect blood, but Yang Ping'an moved without warning.
The people in the main hall focused their attention on Li Bai, just wanting to see if Yang Fu was Yang Ping'an's son, and no one noticed him.
At the moment when Li Bai turned around, Yang Ping'an's legs exerted force, and he suddenly rushed out like a cheetah, heading straight for Concubine Xiao Shu.
Concubine Xiao Shu was shocked, and subconsciously wanted to dodge, but she endured it alive, and even had a hint of joy in her heart. If she dies in the hands of Yang Ping'an like this, it means that Yang Ping'an is a thief with a weak heart, and there is no need for a blood test!
It's a pity that she didn't arrive first, Yang Ping'an's target was not her, but the young son in her arms. Before everyone could react, Yang Ping'an brought the second prince into his hands.
"Presumptuous! Where is the Yulin Army! Empress Dowager Zheng finally reacted and was furious.
At this moment, not only in her heart, but also in everyone's hearts, Yang Ping'an's sneak attack on the second prince is a manifestation of his weak heart, that is to say, that rumor is true!
In fact, the closest to Yang Ping'an was the Long Guard, and they were guarding outside the palace gate. It's just that Empress Dowager Zheng didn't order Gao Lishi, so Gao Lishi didn't speak, and still stood in the corner and watched coldly.
There was a sound of dense footsteps outside the hall, and a large number of Yulin troops were coming at that time.
Yang Ping'an looked around, raised one hand, and slapped the second prince Tianling in his hand.
"Yang Ping'an, stop! Don't hurt my son! The eunuch on the left side of Concubine Xiao Shu shouted violently, his body shot out like a cannonball, and his left fist smashed Yang Ping'an's door in front of him.
The corners of Yang Ping'an's mouth were slightly upturned, and he sandwiched the second prince under his armpit with one hand, and made a fist with his right hand and punched the opponent directly.
There was a muffled sound of "bang", the two took two steps back at the same time, Yang Ping'an smiled, the eunuch gritted his teeth, and Concubine Xiao Shufei yelled at the eunuch as if crazy: "What nonsense are you talking about!" ”
At this moment, Empress Dowager Zheng also saw the abnormality, and with a wave of her hand, the Yulin Army who rushed into the hall retreated, staring at Yang Ping'an: "The mourning family needs an explanation!" ”
Yang Ping'an put the second prince down, patted his little head, comforted him, and then let go of his hand. The little guy was obviously frightened just now, and staggered to Concubine Xiao Shufei's arms with his mouth pursed, and then started crying.
"Brother Luo, I made this decision as a last resort, and I was offended by the right talent, please forgive me."
"Humph!" The eunuch who shot snorted angrily, knowing that he had fallen for Yang Ping'an's tricks.
Empress Dowager Zheng, who was ignored, had an ugly face: "Concubine Shu, the mourning family asked you, who is he?" ”
What Empress Dowager Zheng asked was the eunuch who was called "Brother Luo" by Yang Ping'an. Concubine Xiao Shufei sat on the ground with a dead face, and the second prince who was held in her arms was crying.
Yang Ping'an said: "Back to the Queen Mother, this person's surname is Luo, his name is Qiusheng, he is a shadow guard, and he is also Xiao Pingyu's confidant. If I am not mistaken, the second prince was not born to the first emperor, but to Luo Qiusheng and Concubine Xiao Shu! ”
He was right, Yang Rui lost his fertility because of the sins he created more than ten years ago. Concubine Xiao Shu was unable to give birth to the imperial heir for a long time, and in desperation, Xiao Taishi decided to make a dangerous move and chose to borrow a seed.
Luo Qiusheng is a talent, but the most regrettable thing is that his right arm was cut off by Yang Ping'an. Although he practiced the left-handed knife technique hard, his strength was greatly reduced. But this person has a deep love for Concubine Xiao, so he is loyal to the Xiao family, so he is the best candidate to borrow seeds.
On that day, he escaped from the Horse Mansion, thinking about Concubine Xiao's mother and son, so he sneaked into the palace and disguised himself as a little eunuch to secretly protect Concubine Xiao.
Yang Ping'an suddenly attacked the second prince just now, worried that his beloved son was in a hurry, and he didn't hold back for a while, so that disaster came out of his mouth.
"Come on, take them down!" Empress Dowager Zheng's chest rose and fell angrily, coughed one after another, and said angrily.
In front of everyone's eyes, it was rumored that the harem concubines did not abide by women's morals, made peace with outsiders and gave birth to heirs, and pretended to be the prince for many years, what a shame is this for the royal family? If the Xiao family's treacherous scheme succeeds and the fish-eyed pearl inherits the throne, how can the royal family have face?
Many Yulin soldiers pounced on them like tigers and wolves, Concubine Xiao Shu was captured on the spot in the petrification, and the second prince was also picked up by a Yulin army in a cry. Luo Qiusheng resisted and wanted to rescue Concubine Xiao's mother and son, but at this time, Gao Lishi opened his mouth and summoned Long Wei, and Luo Qiusheng was finally injured and captured.
"How do you know!" Luo Qiusheng, who was captured, was unwilling in his heart, stared at Yang Ping'an and asked.
Yang Ping'an smiled but did not answer. He expected early on that the second prince was also not born to Yang Rui, but Luo Qiusheng was an exception.
He learned from Lao Su Tou that Luo Qiusheng escaped from the Horse Mansion on the wedding day, and the soldiers in the city searched all over the city without success. Yesterday, he entrusted Lao Sutou to investigate the eunuchs around Concubine Xiao Shu, and sure enough, he found a suspicious eunuch in disguise.
Today in the main hall, he found that the eunuch's right sleeve looked empty, and he immediately thought of Luo Qiusheng, who had lost his right arm.
Judging that he was seventy percent sure, he decided to take a risk, and sure enough, he deceived Luo Qiusheng.
Concubine Xiao's family rebelled, and she did such shameless things, which naturally made it difficult to tolerate the Tang royal family. Empress Dowager Zheng ordered a few people to be pushed out to correct the law on the spot, and even the second prince was not spared.
However, Yang Ping'an suggested that when it comes to the new emperor's candidates today, it is not appropriate to brew killings, so it is better to detain the three people and wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne before making a decision.
Empress Dowager Zheng hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.
Since it has been proved that the second prince is not Yang Rui's biological son, the matter of blood testing has become a little embarrassing.
In case it is verified that Yang Fu is not Yang Rui's own son, it will definitely be a huge irony for the Yang Tang royal family, I am afraid that after a hundred years, it will be ridiculed and generous.
After staring at Yang Ping'an for a long time, Empress Dowager Zheng decided to give up the blood test, Yang Fu is Yang Rui's own child, if anyone dares to chew the root of the tongue, they will be beheaded.
No one dared to oppose her decision, even some royal relatives who coveted the throne did not dare to rashly open their mouths and touch the head of the Empress Dowager Zheng, and they were in trouble by themselves.
But at this time, Yang Ping'an suddenly spoke: "Queen Mother, I think that the matter of blood testing relatives should not be abandoned halfway." What is the life experience of the eldest prince, if he can't be verified today, even if he reigns in the world one day, I am afraid that he will be criticized.
The mouth of the people is worse than the defense of Sichuan, even if the people of the world do not say it, but the people of later generations will slander it in the way of wild history. And there is also the Southern Zhou Tiger's eye, if it can't be verified, I'm afraid that they will make a big fuss about it, which is not good for my Datang.
So I thought that today we must recognize relatives with blood, prove the blood of the great prince to the people of the world, and make sure that everyone in the world will be able to do it. ”
As soon as these words came out, Su Min almost screamed. Su Jia also looked at Yang Ping'an in puzzlement, but it was those ministers and relatives who looked at Yang Ping'an and the eldest prince.
He's not going to expose himself, is he?
Empress Dowager Zheng stared at Yang Ping'an for a long time, and said slowly: "Are you sure?" ”
"Sure."
"Ugh." Empress Dowager Zheng sighed, "Li Aiqing, you go on." The mourning family is a little tired, you verify Fu'er's identity as soon as possible, and the mourning family wants to go back to the palace to rest. ”
Li Bai glanced at Yang Ping'an with complicated eyes, took the blood samples of Yang Ping'an and Yang Fu from the new ones and dripped them into the vessel, and then took out a thin bamboo stick from his sleeve.
