I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

[Tong'er, we'll counter each other's moves later.]

The people of the Mo family perked up, knowing that the next battle would be a tough one!

Soon the servants of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion prepared the tools for the blood test. The officer took Zhai Sixie and took a drop of his blood and dropped it into a bowl.

When it was Sun's turn, she refused to stretch out her hand and looked at the Duke of England pleadingly. Xie'er was her child and the truth would be revealed once the blood test was done!

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take some blood. Only by testing can my son be cleared of all charges and those who are trying to slander him shut up!"

Sun was so frightened by the roar from Duke Yingguo that she dared not step forward and allowed the officer to take a drop of her blood. Everyone's eyes were focused on the bowl. Duke Yingguo held his breath and concentrated, while the old lady of Duke Dingguo was calm and composed, as if she had a plan in mind!

"The blood didn't mix! The two are not related by blood!" someone exclaimed.

Duke Ying laughed, looked at the Minister of Justice and said sarcastically: "Now, big brother, what else do you have to say? You are making a rash conclusion without any evidence. You can't handle cases like this. If you keep doing this, I'm afraid there will be false cases and wrongful convictions!"

Seeing the reversal of events, thanks to the good image of Duke Ying in the past, some people immediately stood up for Duke Ying and voiced their support, "That's right, the blood doesn't mix, which means that the two are not mother and son at all. Lord Mo should apologize."

"Yes, since ancient times, only the mixing of blood can prove that two people are related. Everyone has seen with their own eyes that the blood of the two people has not mixed at all. Even if Lord Mo is the Minister of Justice, he cannot slander others with empty words!"

Mo Feiyu looked at the two small drops of blood in the bowl, frowning. Qin looked at her husband worriedly, but Lord Mo was not panicked at all. He looked at the crowd and asked, "Is there any doctor here?"

Doctor Gong was concentrating on watching the show when he suddenly heard Lord Mo calling him the doctor. He thought of another possibility. Things were becoming more and more interesting. He immediately raised his hand and said:

"Yes, the doctor is here!"

"Thank you, Doctor Gong, for checking." When the Minister of Justice saw that it was Doctor Gong who stepped forward, his expression became gentle and respectful, and he stretched out his hand for Doctor Gong to verify.

Doctor Gong was born into a family of imperial physicians. His ancestors had been famous imperial physicians for generations. All the prominent families in the capital who were qualified to hire imperial physicians for treatment had been treated by the Gong family to some extent. Therefore, Doctor Gong was well-known throughout the capital.

[Wow, Lord Mo is indeed worthy of being the Minister of Justice. He discovered the problem right away. That's right, the water was tampered with by the nanny next to the old lady of Duke Dingguo. She added clear oil to the water, so that even if the two are biological mother and son, their blood will not mix.]

The old lady of Duke Dingguo looked unhappy. She had never expected that Lord Mo had discovered something unusual. She knew that if she asked Doctor Gong to examine her, the truth would be exposed. She pretended to be sad and said:

"Master Mo, what do you mean? I ordered people to prepare all the things for the blood test. You don't trust me. When the emperor was young, he often came to the Duke's Mansion. I watched him grow up. I was also there when he was taught. Even the emperor praised my character. Are you questioning the emperor, Master Mo?"

The old lady of Duke Dingguo always speaks in the same tone as Duke Yingguo, either talking about this or that or using someone else's identity to cover up herself. The Minister of Justice hates dealing with such people the most.

"Old Madam, please be careful with your words. I am questioning you, the Duke of Dingguo. The Emperor is the true dragon emperor and the heaven of the Great Li Dynasty. No one in the world is qualified to represent the Emperor except the honorable Empress Dowager. And let me correct you by saying that it was the old Duke of Dingguo who taught the Emperor. If the person who did this today was the old Duke of Dingguo, then I naturally have no objection."

The old lady of Duke Dingguo's face turned pale and blue. This Minister of Justice actually challenged her openly. Could it be that he forgot his relationship with the Empress Dowager?

Doctor Gong was not afraid of offending the old lady of Duke Dingguo. He took a few steps to the bowl, took a drop of water and put it into his mouth under the shocked, angry and helpless gaze of the Duke of England.

"Well, the water smells like clear oil. There are records in ancient books that if clear oil is added, the blood of the couple will not mix even if they are mother and child. But if alum is added, the blood of the couple will mix even if they are not mother and child."

Everyone looked at the old lady of Duke Dingguo. The Minister of Justice took advantage of the situation and said coldly, "The old lady added clear oil to the water to influence the result of the blood test. Is this your justice?"

Ning Zhiyi opened her bright eyes and pretended to be innocent, and asked: "May I ask why the old lady did this? Did you know that Zhai Sixie was Sun's child, and ordered people to add clear oil to the water to cover up for the Duke of Ying?"

When An Xiang leaned against Ning Zhiyi, she started to complain as soon as she opened her little mouth. She had already told him everything about the bad things the old lady of Duke Dingguo said about Ning Zhiyi.

Ning Zhiyi loves doing this kind of thing to cause trouble to people he hates!

"Nonsense! How would I know there would be oil in the water?"

"Madam, please spare me. This is all my fault. I touched the oil before preparing the water. I didn't wash my hands before I took the bowl to prepare the water for the blood test. This led to the subsequent blunder. Please punish me, Madam!"

"You idiot, how could you be so careless? However, considering that you have loyally served me your entire life, I will spare your death sentence, but you cannot escape the punishment of life. Go and receive your punishment in a moment!"

"Yes! Yes! Thank you, Madam!"

The Minister of Justice did not want to deal with these minions. They could be dealt with at any time. The most urgent task was to deal with the Duke of Ying. "Please ask Imperial Doctor Gong to prepare a new blood test for kinship."

"No problem." Doctor Gong smiled and glanced at the Duke of England, who looked very 'exciting', and said to the crowd, "Is there anyone willing to help me prepare the water? In case the verification result is not to the Duke of England's liking, he will deny it and accuse me of tampering with the water."

Hearing this, the onlookers burst into laughter. A few who liked to watch the fun immediately expressed their willingness to prepare water with Doctor Gong. The Duke of England's face was no longer ugly, it had already turned gray.

Soon, Doctor Gong brought over a new bowl of water and asked other doctors present to verify the safety of the water. Only after everyone agreed that there was no problem with the water did he drip blood again.

Sun still refused to cooperate and nearly knocked over the bowl while struggling. Qin said dimly, "Why? Are you feeling guilty? Are you afraid that your son's identity as a concubine will be exposed after verification?"

Sun's eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Qin and the father and son of the Mo family with resentment. But no matter how angry she was, she could not change the fact that her blood had been taken. In front of everyone's witness, the two drops of blood slowly merged together and finally became one!

"They are mixed, their blood is mixed, they are mother and son!"
