In the years of famine, in troubled times, the koi sweet wife is omnipotent
Chapter 222: Dog bites dog, identity revealed
"People's women...people's women..."
Zhuang Ju didn't know what to do after hearing her words.
Damn Xia Wanwan, she actually lets her looks speak for her.
"Your Majesty! Rou'er is the princess. You must trust me."
Zhuang Ju only knew that she had to insist that Xia Rouer was the princess, otherwise her life would be in danger.
Xia Wanwan curled her lips into a smile and winked at Prince Jin and the Emperor.
Prince Jin understood instantly and feigned shock. He looked at the Emperor and said, "Royal brother! From this perspective, it seems that Xia Rou'er is indeed more like their child. On the other hand, look at Xia Wanwan. Her eyes look especially like our mother's. And her mouth and face shape are exactly like our father's."
The emperor thought that Xia Wanwan winked at him, wanting him to be more serious towards Zhuang Ju and the others, and to use her power to force them to admit the truth.
But after Prince Jin said this, he looked at Xia Wanwan's appearance carefully, and then suddenly stood up from his chair excitedly.
"Indeed, Xia Wanwan's eyes are very much like my mother's, and her face and mouth are like my father's."
The emperor's hands were shaking with excitement as he pointed at Xia Wanwan's ears. "Look, even her ears are like father's. Not only hers, but yours and mine are exactly like father's. And my princesses and princes have all inherited their ears from father and great-grandfather."
When Xia Rouer heard this, she was shocked as if struck by thunder. She looked carefully at Xia Wanwan's ears and found that they were exactly the same as those of Prince Jin and the Emperor. Her mood collapsed instantly.
At this time, Zhuang Ju, Xia Qiuming and Zhao Caijun were kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise their heads, trying hard to think of ideas in their minds.
The emperor was furious at this point and shouted, "Tell me the truth, what is the truth?"
Zhuang Ju was so frightened that she stammered, but she still insisted, "Your Majesty! Rou'er is your daughter."
"Hehe~"
The emperor snorted coldly, his tone icy, "Do you really think I'm a fool? Do you really not know that Xia Rou'er is an imposter? The first day I saw her, I knew she wasn't the one I was looking for, because she looked nothing like the mother, the queen, and the father, the emperor, of me and the Prince of Jin. Furthermore, I've always been looking for my biological sister, not my biological daughter. I brought you back to the palace only to discover the true origin of the jade pendant and the person I'm looking for."
"Wha...what?"
Zhuang Ju was so frightened that she paralyzed on the ground, her eyes wide open in disbelief.
"I have given you a chance, but you are stubborn and have been deceiving me until now, saying that Xia Rouer is my daughter. Do you know that the crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by the extermination of all nine generations of your clan?"
The emperor snorted coldly and sat back in his chair.
Xia Rouer could no longer pretend at this time. With her cowardly character, she could show off at home, but when she met a slightly aggressive outsider, she would just keep her tail between her legs.
Now, facing the emperor's questioning and a series of evidence, she immediately cried and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty! I didn't mean to do it. It was... my mother and my father. They asked me to pretend to be your daughter. If you want to kill someone, kill them, don't kill me."
Seeing Xia Rouer putting the blame on Zhuang Ju and Xia Qiuming, Zhao Caijun quickly crawled over to her side and slapped her hard in the face. "Bitch! You and your family have ruined me."
After beating Xia Rouer, he immediately turned to the emperor, pointed at Xia Rouer and her family, and said angrily, "Your Majesty! This was all their idea. It has nothing to do with me. I'm just a son-in-law. And the person who was bullied since childhood wasn't Xia Rouer at all, it was Xia Wanwan. She was the one who was bullied."
"You...you..."
Zhuang Ju and Xia Qiuming were so angry that they covered their chests and spat out blood.
"Rebellious girl!"
The two pointed at Xia Rouer and were extremely angry. "We are your biological parents, and you actually want to kill us just to protect yourself."
"You asked me to impersonate you in the first place."
Xia Rouer also stared at them with hatred and said angrily, "When we were little, you thought the jade pendant on Xia Wanwan's neck was beautiful, so you took it from her and put it on me. Later, when His Majesty found the jade pendant, you let me take Xia Wanwan's place and enter the palace, hoping to live a life of luxury in the future. Isn't what I said the truth?"
Xia Rouer lost her temper and told the whole truth in a few words.
"Your Majesty! I can prove that it was they who came up with the idea of having Xia Rouer take over the princess's identity. Can you please spare me the life of me for admitting my mistake and telling the truth?"
Zhao Caijun now only wanted to save his life. He patted his chest with both hands and looked at the emperor with horror, begging.
At this moment, he hated Xia Rouer's family in his heart. If it weren't for their greed, things wouldn't have come to this point today.
He had only enjoyed a few days of peace and quiet, and there were still many things he wanted to do, but in the end he had to face beheading. It was really unfair.
Xia Wanwan just watched them fighting each other, and she felt so happy.
Originally, I went to the palace today just to teach Xia Rouer a lesson, but who knew that it would happen to this point.
In reality, they were timid, not smart enough, and not strong enough. She had only casually mentioned her appearance, and it had frightened him to such an extent.
If it were her, wanting to live a good life, but having a fake identity, she would have to keep her tail between her legs and behave herself.
How could she be so impatient that she dared to ask the emperor to assassinate someone with the Royal Guards after only two days in the palace?
"Bold Xia Rou'er! Your family is so audacious that you have deceived the emperor and framed the real princess. This is a crime worthy of genocide. Since you raised the princess, I will grant you a lighter punishment and spare the rest of your clan. I hereby sentence you to be executed in three days."
The emperor was furious and shouted outside, "Come! Take these four men to the Heavenly Prison. I will personally supervise their execution in three days."
After hearing the verdict, Zhuang Ju kowtowed repeatedly and admitted her fault, "Your Majesty! No! I was wrong. I will never do it again."
Xia Rouer, however, was still trying to protect herself by putting the blame on her own parents. "Your Majesty, please spare me. If you want to kill, kill these two. They made me pretend to be a princess. I am innocent!"
Xia Qiu knew that begging for mercy was useless, so he simply knelt on the ground without saying a word.
Zhao Caijun suddenly knelt beside Xia Wanwan in fear and begged, "Wanwan! Haven't you liked me since we were little? Please help your cousin and plead for mercy. As long as His Majesty forgives me, I will divorce Xia Rouer and marry you. How about that?"
