Nanny Su's words were like a magical sound, echoing in the Si family's hall for a long time.

Everyone fell silent.

No one expected that Concubine Xin would do such a ridiculous thing.

The emperor felt that he had gone from being the supreme emperor to a ridiculous clown.

"Hahaha! Hahaha..." Xin Ya laughed out loud again, "Si Yan, Si Yan, you are really amazing! It seems that you will not give up until Prince Xin is killed."

Xin Ya turned to look at the emperor, like a raging lion, "Your Majesty, since you suspect that Prince Xin is not your biological son, then kill me, kill Prince Xin! Kill Prince Xin quickly!"

"Hahaha! Hahaha..." Concubine Xin's unbridled laughter was a bit crazy. The emperor had a splitting headache and tried his best to calm himself down.

This incident happened too long ago, and it is really hard to be convinced based solely on Nanny Su's confession.

The emperor's expression was as cold as ice, and he asked gloomily, "Madam Su, you said that Prince Xin is Wei Shu's son. Do you have any evidence?"

Nanny Su replied calmly, "Your Majesty, Prince Xin and Wei Shu look very similar. If they were to stand together, Your Majesty would definitely be able to tell the difference. Furthermore, Prince Xin has a dark red birthmark on his left leg, and Wei Shu also has a dark red birthmark on his left leg. The birthmarks on both father and son are in exactly the same location."

When the emperor heard this, his face changed.

Nanny Su really doesn't make up everything. At least, she doesn't make up the story about the birthmark.

But, does Wei Shu also have such a birthmark?

Si Yan said softly, "Your Majesty, does Prince Xin have a dark red birthmark on his left leg?"

"Yes." The emperor closed his eyes and replied with a bad look.

When Prince Xin was born, he had a dark red birthmark on his left leg, like a unicorn. It was for this reason that the emperor paid special attention to Prince Xin.

He believed that Prince Xin was carrying a lucky beast from heaven and was a auspicious child who would bring blessings to Daxuan in the future.

Later, he devoted more and more efforts to Prince Xin, and began to favor Concubine Xin as well.

He almost made Prince Xin the crown prince. If it weren't for the court officials' strong advice that the eldest son should be made the crown prince to avoid instability in the court, Prince Xin would have become the crown prince long ago.

"How do you know that Wei Shu also has such a birthmark on his left leg?" the emperor asked unwillingly.

Since ancient times, it has been very rare for two people to have the same birthmark. How is it possible for them to have the same birthmark in the same location?

Even between father and son, this situation is not common.

Nanny Su blushed, her eyes reddened. "I once served Wei Shu, and I know exactly what marks he has."

Xin Ya's face was full of sarcasm: "You really can slander me however you want with just your mouth! Hahahaha... Si Yan, you are really capable! You are really capable!"

Concubine Xin held her head high with a resolute attitude, "Your Majesty, let it be, you should quickly kill Prince Xin! This way, Prince Yong will be your only safe son. Oh, by the way, isn't Prince Yong already the crown prince? He should be ascending the throne soon, right? Hahaha..."

Xin Ya knew that she was at her wit's end. The only thing she could do now was to save Prince Xin's life.

Her sarcasm and ridicule might stimulate the emperor and prevent him from being manipulated by Si Yan.

"Your Majesty, Wei Shu does have a dark red birthmark on his left leg." Si Yan said softly.

"Haha!" Concubine Xin sneered and gave Si Yan a sarcastic smile, "Master Si Yan also served Wei Shu?"

That bitch Su He had always coveted Wei Shu and almost snatched Wei Shu away. It was not surprising that she knew Wei Shu had a birthmark.

But how did Si Yan know that Wei Shu had a birthmark?

"How do you know?" asked the emperor.

Si Yan spoke slowly and calmly, "Your Majesty, Wei Shu once followed Prince Chen to the border. He was arrested for interfering with military affairs. I noticed that Prince Xin and Wei Shu looked alike, so I had Wei Shu searched and discovered a dark red birthmark on his left leg."

At that time, Si Yan didn't know that Prince Xin also had such a birthmark.

Not long ago, Boya’s people interrogated Nanny An and Nanny Fang, and they found out.

"I have also had someone record Wei Shu's physical characteristics. Your Majesty, please review them."

As Si Yan spoke, he handed the booklet that he had asked someone to record earlier to Eunuch Gu and presented it to the emperor.

The emperor looked at the booklet and was silent for a while before saying, "This booklet doesn't prove anything. I haven't seen the Wei Shu with my own eyes, so I don't believe it."

For such a big thing, he must see solid evidence, otherwise, he would not be able to doubt Prince Xin, whom he had spoiled since childhood.

Si Yan said calmly: "Wei Shu is in Shangjing."

Wei Shu had failed in his previous prison break and escaped, but the wanted order had been issued and his activities were restricted.

Boya's people have also been secretly searching for Wei Shu's whereabouts, and they have found Wei Shu's hiding place.

"Where?" the emperor asked solemnly.

He really wanted to meet this Wei Shu and see what he looked like. How could he dare to cause chaos in his harem?

"In Duke Yang's mansion." Si Yan said softly.

"Duke Yang's Mansion?" The emperor couldn't help but frown. Duke Yang had made great contributions during the previous emperor's time and was known as the pillar of Daxuan.

This Book of Wei is actually hidden in the mansion of Duke Yang?

Ling Mohan stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, may I bring the guards from the Left Guard House to search Duke Yang's mansion?"

The emperor nodded: "Alright."

Things have come to this point, and the emperor also wants to find out whether Prince Xin is his biological son?

He already had a premonition that Prince Xin might not really be his son, but without seeing any evidence, he couldn't bring himself to give up.

Ling Mohan was about to leave when Si Yan said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the Duke of Yang's Mansion isn't that easy to search."

"How is it difficult to search?"

"Duke Yang holds the Divine Dragon Sword bestowed by the late emperor. Seeing this object is like seeing the late emperor. Without Your Majesty's express order, I'm afraid war will break out."

Si Yan had already known for a long time that this Duke Yang was not someone to be trifled with.

During the reign of the previous emperor, he was highly trusted by the previous emperor. Before the previous emperor's death, he was appointed as the minister of state. Even the emperor had to listen to him.

Later, he gradually withdrew from the court, and his son Yang Youjian entered the officialdom and gradually became the Minister of Personnel.

"Then I will issue an order to have Ling Mohan lead the charge."

After the emperor finished speaking, he immediately asked someone to prepare pen and paper, and Si Zhengxuan wrote an imperial edict on his behalf, which he gave to Ling Mohan to search the Yang Guogong Mansion.

Si Yan said calmly, "Your Majesty, Ling Mohan and I will go together to ensure that Wei Shu has no way to escape."

"Okay, then you go quickly and come back quickly." The emperor was now eager to meet Wei Shu.
