Wei Boyu watched all this, his body seemed to have been immobilized, and he could not move. He just closed his eyes and sighed slightly, and two lines of pure tears fell silently.

The doctor ordered him to kneel forward, put his fingers under Guan Ji's nose to test, and shook his head slightly. He then tested Shi Sizi and reported, "This man is still breathing weakly. Do you want to help?"

Mrs. Li shouted: "No need! While he still has his last breath, hurry up and take a blood test!"

"Blood test?" Gong Shuhua was a little puzzled: "Since it has been proven that this son is not of the emperor's blood, and the Shi family has admitted it, is it still necessary?"

"Uncle, of course it is necessary." Mrs. Li relaxed her tone and said, "Although Mr. Shi has confessed his guilt, if he wants to be heard by the public, he still needs to have real evidence. For the sake of prudence, I would like to ask my uncle to work hard."

When Gong Shuhua went down the stairs, Shi Sizi's chest was still heaving together, but his trachea was punctured and blood bubbles were constantly coming out. He could only open his eyes but was speechless. Shi Jiao didn't even look at his son. , only Shi's wife and daughter-in-law were secretly wiping away tears. Gong Shuhua squatted down, held up one hand, pricked his finger with a silver needle, and a drop of blood fell into the bowl.

The wet nurse opened the swaddling clothes, and Gong Shuhua once again pricked a drop of blood from the baby's instep and dropped it into the water, placing it in front of the case. The two drops of blood were like a pair of relatives reunited after a long separation, and they quickly merged into one.

Wei Boyu only glanced at it, then closed his eyes and was stunned. Mrs. Li waved her long sleeves, and the chamberlain held a white jade bowl and walked around the hall, displaying the results of the blood test in front of all the clan officials. There was no doubt that Discuss.

Although this result was foreseen, everyone in the clan could not help but be filled with anger when they first saw it. Gongsun Yu took the lead in attacking Shijiao: "Doctor Shi, it is in vain that you, as the state supervisor of the Zhou Dynasty, intend to use your own blood to Pretending to be the crown prince of our Kingdom of Wei? How are you different from an animal by acting like this? How can you meet our ancestors of the Wei family? How can you meet the Emperor of Zhou?"

His gray hair was scattered around the corner of the stone. He walked up a few stone steps on his knees and knocked his head on the hard stone surface, blood flowing like a stream. Shaking from his arms, he took out a silk book written in blood and cried: " This is a form of apology from me to your Majesty. It is Shijiao who is greedy for profit and has no way to teach his children, which has led to today's disaster. Please have mercy on me, the Shi clan, and spare me the death penalty."

When the chamberlain was about to receive the silk book, the corner of the stone flashed: "Please, Your Majesty, please personally receive my testament."

Wei Boyu stood up weakly and had just taken the silk book. Shijiao's eyes flashed and he shouted: "Your Majesty, I will serve you again in the next life!" He hit the copper pillar next to the palace with his head, and only Hearing a loud "dang" sound, his brain immediately burst and he died on the spot. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Shi family rushed over and screamed at the sky and the earth, wailing endlessly. Shijiao has been an important minister for many years and has many contacts with the family and clan. Seeing this situation, many people have it Sympathy for Gong Shuhua. At this time, his eyes were red and he was almost in tears.

Mrs. Li keenly felt the subtle changes in the situation and said loudly: "Your Majesty was deceived by the Shi family and the Enchantress, and was involved in the case, so it is inconvenient to make a decision. Forget it, I have ordered that Shi Jiao and his son should be punished for their crimes, but I thought that he would be a minister for generations, and he committed suicide in court to show his repentance. So he agreed to his request, and the Shi family was exempted from the death penalty, and the whole family moved to the north to guard the border."

Shi's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law kowtowed as if they were pounding garlic: "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Mrs. Tai, for sparing the lives of my family!"

But the baby still kept crying. Gong Shuhua tried his best and said: "Mrs. Sister-in-law, look at this child------"

Mrs. Li sighed: "What's wrong with a child? What's more, the Shi family has been seeking the country for several generations, and I can't bear to see him die. So, this child will be raised by me, and when he grows up, he will officially inherit the Shi family's title and status." How about a fiefdom?"

Gong Shuhua was overjoyed, and everyone in the hall followed him and bowed down: "My wife has a broad mind, and I am the pillar of the country. I will bow down to you!"

Mrs. Li smiled at the corners of her eyes, and glanced at the people below the steps, and said slowly: "My maid He Hua has done her best. From now on, she will stay in the palace to serve Mrs. Zhongzi. And ------" she said with deep meaning. He glanced at Doctor Ling: "What did you say?"

"Mrs. Madam, please forgive me!" The doctor begged, crawling on the ground: "Mrs. Guan Ji was indeed only more than two months pregnant when she entered the palace. I lied and knew that I was punished by death. It's just that------I Don’t you dare tell this lie!”

"Who bribed you? Is it Guan Ji or Dr. Shijiao?" Gong Shuhua asked, his gray beard shaking in front of his chest in anger.

The doctor Ling raised his eyes timidly, gritted his teeth, and seemed to have made up his mind: "Stretching your head is a knife, and shrinking your head is a knife. I will just say it. It is ------ the emperor asked me to say so. !”

As soon as these words came out, the whole palace was in an uproar. Wei Boyu's mind was stunned. He thought that today the Madam was going to kill two birds with one stone, but he didn't expect that there was a follow-up move. This was clearly three birds with one stone! And the arrowhead that was hidden the most was It is pointed at myself!

As soon as the doctor said this, everyone in the audience was shocked. Everyone cast suspicious eyes on Wei Boyu, thinking in their hearts: Why? Impossible! Knowing that he is not of his own blood, he still wants to establish him as the heir apparent? Why is this? ?

Gong Shuhua was the first to attack and rebuked angrily: "Nonsense! Since you know that this son is a scoundrel of the Shi family, how can you make him the heir apparent and entrust him to the country? This ------ clearly does not make sense! It must be... Seeing that the situation is urgent, you are grabbing and biting randomly! Someone is coming! Drag him out immediately and kill him!"

"Wait a minute!" Mrs. Li raised her sleeves gracefully and comforted her softly: "Uncle, please don't get angry. This person is an important witness. If you don't listen to him clearly, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you and me to stop Wei. People are talking a lot. Let’s hear what comes out of the dog’s mouth!”

Uncle Hua thought for a while and nodded helplessly. The doctor ordered Rumeng to be pardoned and kowtowed:

"Mrs. Madam, uncle, I have been a doctor for a long time, and I have been living in the country for a long time. Naturally, I will die to serve. The matter of blood is so important. How dare you deceive me? I checked Guan Ji's pulse for the first time and knew that she was pregnant. It's only more than two months, and it will definitely not belong to the emperor. Guan Ji secretly gave the villain two pounds of gold and asked the villain to cover it up for him. But the villain thought about it and realized that the matter was very important. The bad thing is the death penalty for destroying the nine tribes. I hesitated about this for several months, and finally waited until the king came back. The villain told the whole story in the first report. But------"

"But what?" Gong Shuhua left the table and asked.

"But your Majesty, when he first heard about this, he seemed to be very angry. The villain lay on the ground for a long time, and then he heard your Majesty sigh heavily and told him that he already knew about this matter, and asked the villain not to mention it to anyone. "And, he has his own opinions. Especially ------" He glanced at Mrs. Li timidly: "Especially Mrs. Tai, who can't say a word."

Mrs. Li glanced at Wei Boyu contemptuously and asked deliberately: "Why can't you tell me?"

"The villain will die." The doctor kept kowtowing: "It is just because the relationship between the wife and the king is not harmonious, and it is already known to everyone. If the wife is informed of this matter, it will definitely make a big fuss. The young master and the original We are already a powerful enemy, and if the Madam takes advantage of this again, Your Majesty will be afraid."

"Then why didn't you report this to me from the beginning, instead of waiting until your Majesty came back to tell you about this?" Mrs. Li asked, she must block this hole.

"Firstly, it is for your Majesty's plan. If I tell the Madam first, I am afraid it will be detrimental to the Majesty; secondly, Guan Ji and Mrs. Shi also coerce and induce me, and even send people to settle in the minister's house. Xiao People are afraid that they will be harmful to their families, so they dare not speak out. They only want to report to the emperor secretly, which not only fulfills the duty of a minister, but also protects oneself." The doctor's voice became softer as he spoke the order.

"You glib and treacherous minister! How can I fail you? You made up such lies to slander me?" Wei Boyu listened to this for a long time and saw the suspicious eyes of everyone attacking him like knives. He couldn't help it. No more angry.

Mrs. Li winked, and the two guards in front of the palace got the signal. One left and one right stood in front of the doctor Ling, to prevent Guard Boyu from taking action in anger. When Wei Boyu saw this situation, he became even more resentful and shouted: "Okay, okay, then you can tell me, I know that Guan Ji's son is a remnant of the Shi family, why do I still make him the heir apparent?"

"This------" the doctor ordered muttered: "This subordinate doesn't know."

"He doesn't know, I'm here to tell you." Zhongzi, who hadn't spoken for a long time, spoke: "The king is thirty-six years old, but he has no children. Seeing that the young master and the people in the country respond to each other's call, if something happens to him, this guard will The state belongs to Wei He. Although Guan Ji's son is not of his own blood, he can be used as a 'shield'. First, he can be established as the crown prince, so that the wife and the prince can no longer have any thoughts; on the other hand, she can also let The Shi family is loyal to you with all your heart. If another son is born in the future, you can depose this son at any time without any delay!"

"Nonsense!" Mrs. Li slapped the table: "Did you hear this from your own mouth?"

"No!" Zhongzi's voice was full of grievances: "Your Majesty is as cold as ice to my concubines. How could you tell me such secrets? Guan Ji's maid accidentally overheard this. She is already outside the palace, Mrs. Tai. If you can tell her to come into the palace, you will know as soon as you ask her."

When the maid came into the palace and saw blood on the ground, she was so frightened that she knelt down with a thud: "Madam, uncle, please forgive me! This slave is only serving Lady Guan Ji and knows nothing else!" "

Gong Shuhua had experienced so many changes in the past few days and was exhausted. At this time, he steeled himself and asked: "Tell me, do you know about Guan Ji's pregnancy? If you tell any lies, I will behead you immediately!" "

The maid answered tremblingly: "I don't know very well. But--but in the days when your Majesty first came back, you were very affectionate to your Majesty. Ever since they had a quarrel, she has become a little cold." .Although I come here often, I live in a separate bed with my empress."

"Why are we quarreling?" Mrs. Li asked.
