"Eunuch Cao, please prepare fifty bowls of water and one hundred needles."

"...Master Zhao, I wonder what this is for?"

"Eunuch Cao, please leave quickly."

Fei Wan didn't explain much, but just urged in a firm and gentle voice.

When Cao Bin saw her eyes full of fighting spirit, he knew that he had to do this.

And it has to be done quickly.

So he quickly led his men to retreat to the back, and in a moment, he led a team of palace servants to bring the things Fei Wan wanted.

After all, at the birthday banquet, all the dishes were fully prepared and served quickly.

"Thank you, father-in-law."

Fei Wan took one of the bowls of water and two needles and came before the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty."

The emperor let her take his hand with great interest, pricked his fingertip with a needle, and squeezed a drop of blood into the water.

She moved so quickly that it was too late for everyone to stop her.

"Oh, Miss Zhao..." Cao Bin exclaimed.

"How dare you damage the dragon's body!" The concubine jumped out again.

Fei Wanli ignored her.

He quickly walked over to Yu Zhong who was still kneeling, picked up another needle, and stabbed Yu Zhong with it, squeezing the blood into the water.

Then he shook the bowl of water to make the water rotate.

As everyone watched in surprise and astonishment, the two drops of blood quickly merged together with the water flow!

Fei Wan scanned the entire room with a look of grief and indignation, loudly questioning:

"Look, your majesty's blood and Lord Yu's blood have merged together. Could it be that your majesty and Lord Yu are also related by blood?!"

The whole hall was in an uproar.

This time, the discussion was louder than ever before.

Even when Yu Zhong was accused of colluding with foreign countries by his political opponents, no one was so surprised.

Your Majesty! That is Your Majesty!

The blood of Yu Shilang actually mixed with his?!

So……

So Your Majesty is also the descendant of Minister Yu?

It’s impossible that Minister Yu, who is nearly fifty years old, is the emperor’s son!

The Queen Mother's face turned pale.

This concerns her reputation!

Without waiting for others to question her, the Queen Mother asked loudly:

"Noble Lady Zhao, why did you shake the water bowl on purpose?"

This sentence reminds many people.

"Yes, Lord Yu and Lady Zhao didn't shake the water bowl when they were checking the paternity just now."

"Just shake it like this and it will fuse together!"

"Noble Lady Zhao actually cheated openly!"

"She dared to stab His Majesty!"

"She is indeed a scheming witch. She should be taken to the prison and interrogated!"

The accusations from the crowd were so loud that when Fei Wan wanted to explain, her voice was drowned out and no one could hear her.

The corners of her eyes were red and filled with tears, but she bit her lips tightly, refusing to let the tears fall.

Although he was so sad and angry that his breathing became rapid and his chest was heaving, he still straightened his back, faced the accusations of everyone with pride, and refused to bow his head.

The emperor watched in silence.

Lost in the sight of her unique beauty that was both fragile and strong.

Perhaps because she had not expected a birthday banquet, the emperor noticed that she was dressed more simply than usual, a long, wide-sleeved dress made of ordinary material, with no decoration at the collar or cuffs, and only a silk ribbon of the same color tied around her waist.

Her hair was tied up loosely with a long magnolia hairpin inserted in it. A green magnolia was lightly embroidered on her skirt, with the buds just beginning to bloom, looking elegant and graceful.

When I approached her just now, I could smell the faint fragrance lingering around her, light and hazy.

Such a gentle and elegant beauty has become a little sharper because of current events, tsk!

It has a unique charm!

"Come here, arrest Consort Zhao. First, interrogate her and determine her guilt. Once proven, immediately strip her of her title and demote her to a commoner. Throw her into the Heavenly Prison. The Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice will conduct a retrial and punish her severely!"

The Queen Mother gave a stern order.

In the blink of an eye, people from Ciyu Palace brought two guards and pressed Fei Wan to the ground, preparing to send her to the torture chamber of the Palace Administration Office.

"Empress Dowager, I have something to say!"

Fei Wan struggled, and the jade hairpin in her hair slipped off, leaving her long black hair loose.

She knelt on the ground, her long hair cascading down and her eyes filled with tears like flowing blue water.

She was clearly speaking to the Empress Dowager, but the most beautiful side profile angle, which she had confirmed many times in the mirror, was directed at the Emperor.

All her attire today was to let the emperor see her weak yet strong side.

Her beauty, her defiance, her sense of brokenness...

All to win the emperor's heart!

Accustomed to seeing her weak and pitiful appearance, the emperor must be very surprised to see that she still has the courage to fight and the stubbornness to refuse to admit defeat at this time and place.

Women, you must constantly give men surprises in order to continue to maintain your favor!

"Queen Dowager, if you are so anxious to send this concubine to the torture chamber, the truth behind the blood test will be forever covered up! Are you really willing to let His Majesty bear the infamy of being a poor judge of character and arbitrarily appointing concubines, Queen Dowager?"

Fei Wan kept shouting while being dragged away.

Every word and sentence pressured the Queen Mother.

——It’s time to let the emperor know that she is not weak.

Only palace concubines who are sharp and capable of withstanding hardships are worthy of being promoted and have the possibility of being entrusted with important tasks and taking charge of the harem in the future!
