I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

When he finished speaking, the emperor slammed the table and stood up. He was so angry that veins bulged on his face and he looked very scary.

Luo Yuanjian secretly swallowed his saliva and shook his head to deny it.

"Your Majesty, Nian Xi is definitely not such a person. He has lived in the boudoir since he was a child, studying music, chess, calligraphy and painting all day long. He is as timid as a mouse and would never do such a thing."

"Humph!"

The emperor swung his sleeves and glared at him.

"Do you doubt me?"

"I dare not. I just think that this is impossible for her to do. I hope Your Majesty will understand."

Huang was also nodding like crazy.

"Your Majesty, Luo Nianxi grew up under my care. She is not that kind of person at all. Please understand clearly, Your Majesty."

Queen Jiang, who had been silent the whole time, narrowed her eyes and asked sternly,

"Since you are so sure, then call Luo Nianxi to confront her in court. However, you two must carefully check whether she is your daughter. If she is, you have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. If she is not, you have also committed the crime of deceiving the emperor..."

Queen Jiang's words made sweat immediately flow down Luo Yuanjian's forehead, and Huang also began to shiver.

Now, no matter whether Luo Nianxi is real or fake, they cannot escape the crime of deceiving the emperor, and they will die anyway. What should they do?

Seeing them hesitating, the emperor suddenly shouted,

"Someone, call Princess Yan..."

After receiving the order, Eunuch Lin at the door sent someone to the backyard to call Luo Nianxi. The emperor looked solemnly at the two people kneeling in the hall.

"Lord Luo, you know very well how you got your official position. If there is any doubt about the identity of Princess Yan now, you cannot escape responsibility."

Luo Yuanjian immediately raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead, while Huang hated Luo Nianxi.

Why is she different from when she was in Luo Mansion? Could it be that she really wants to harm them?

After a while, Luo Nianxi walked over slowly. She glanced at Luo Yuanjian and Huang who were kneeling on the ground, and secretly admired Leng Yiyan in her heart. He guessed correctly. The emperor really asked Luo Yuanjian and Huang to confront her.

She bowed calmly to the Emperor and Queen Jiang.

"Your son pays respects to your father, the emperor, and your mother, the queen."

The emperor immediately waved his hand with a cold face.

"Don't use this title until you know your identity."

Luo Nianxi nodded without hesitation, "I understand."

The emperor looked at Luo Yuanjian and his wife again.

"Lord Luo, take a good look. Is this person in front of you your daughter Luo Nianxi?"

Luo Yuanjian secretly shuddered, then stood up and walked to Luo Nianxi's side, looking her up and down. When he passed by her right side, he specifically looked at her right ear.

Luo Nianxi frowned slightly in displeasure, then chuckled.

"Dad, you don't recognize your daughter after just ten days of not seeing her?"

Luo Yuanjian blinked a few times, then turned around and reported to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, this is my daughter Luo Nianxi. The voice is correct, the appearance is correct, and even the plum-shaped red mole on the right ear is correct."

Without waiting for the emperor's response, Luo Nianxi looked at the emperor with a sullen face.

"Your Majesty, are you doubting me? Ever since I married into Prince Yan's mansion, I have tried my best to take care of Prince Yan. Now that I have done nothing, it would be fine, but I actually have something wrong? You even doubt my identity? You asked my father and my aunt to confront me in court? If you don't trust me so much, then give me a letter of divorce and let me become a nun, so that I won't be suspected like I am now..."

Seeing that the truth has been revealed, she can no longer give in. Even if she is fake, she will not admit it, because her body belongs to the original owner, and no matter who comes to check, no problem can be found, so at this time, she must be justified.

Seeing that she was a little agitated, Queen Jiang tried to comfort her.

"Nian Xi, don't get excited. The emperor is not suspicious of you. It's just that too many strange things have happened since you entered the palace. If you can explain it clearly, the emperor will naturally lift his suspicion of you."

"Okay, then may I ask, Your Majesty, why do you doubt me? I, Luo Nianxi, will answer all your questions one by one."

Anyway, she had already learned from Leng Yiyan that the emperor and the queen would suspect her, so she had already prepared her excuses and was just waiting for the emperor to ask.

Seeing that she was neither humble nor overbearing nor fearful, Luo Yuanjian was afraid that the emperor would be angry, so he immediately shouted,

"Nian Xi, how can you be so rude in front of the Emperor and the Empress? Also, Dad heard that you were arrogant after coming to the palace and caused quite a mess? You really brought shame to the Luo family. You were not like this before. How did you become like this? Kneel down and admit your mistake quickly."

"I did nothing wrong. Why should I kneel down? Dad, my mother died early, and you were too busy with official duties to take care of me. I have been bullied at home since I was a child. Even the servants in the mansion can bully me. In order to survive, I pretend to be as docile as a kitten all day long. I dare not speak loudly or disobey anyone. Now I am married and have my own family. Do I have to pretend again? Can't I be myself for the rest of my life? Do I deserve to be bullied all my life?"

When she said this, her eyes were filled with tears of grievance. She wanted to use these emotional words to let the emperor and the empress know the reason why her personality had changed so drastically.

Huang lowered her head feeling guilty, while Luo Yuanjian gnashed his teeth in hatred.

She spoke ill of her mother's family in front of the emperor and the empress, which meant that she was not welcome in the Luo Mansion. But he, as a father, sent her to Prince Yan's Mansion, which clearly showed that he did not take Prince Yan seriously.

Just as Luo Yuanjian was wiping the sweat off his forehead out of fear, not knowing what to do, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief and asked again in confusion,

"Luo Yuanjian said in person that you are a lady from a wealthy family, and you have never done anything in the mansion. But after you came to Prince Yan's mansion, you learned how to cook and make wheelchairs. And there was also the strange noise you made last night. How do you explain these?"

Luo Nianxi secretly pinched the handkerchief in her hand, and was glad that she had prepared her words long ago, otherwise, she would be at a loss at this moment.

She hesitated for a while, then spoke with some sadness.

"Hehe... my father is busy all day long. He doesn't understand the situation at home, and he has no idea at all. Ever since I can remember, my aunt often punished me to kneel down. When I was bored kneeling in the yard, I practiced ventriloquism. Over time, I could make all kinds of sounds from my mouth. I was also often punished to chop wood in the backyard all night. When I was tired of chopping wood, I would cry while doing carpentry work to relieve the fatigue. Over time, I could do all kinds of carpentry work. Sometimes when I did something wrong, I would be punished to starve for three days. In order to survive, I would sneak into the kitchen after everyone fell asleep and make food for myself..."

At this point, she raised the handkerchief to cover her face, and began to cry as if she was thinking about the past.

With just a few simple words, she found the reason for all her strange behaviors in the past few days. Her tone was filled with sadness, which made Queen Jiang reluctantly raise the handkerchief in her hand and reprimanded:

"Luo Yuanjian, this child is your eldest daughter. Her biological mother is gone. How can you bear to treat her so badly?"
