Upon hearing this, Concubine Qi immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not lie. I am willing to guarantee with my life that I have not lied to you in this matter!"
"Alright, I'll wait and see. But until there's any result, you'll kneel here. If even one word you say is false, I'll let you know what the consequences will be of deceiving me."
The emperor's voice was calm, but it made Concubine Qi feel panicky.
But when he thought about the things he had found out, he suddenly felt relieved.
She banged her head on the ground and kowtowed, "I obey your command!"
This appearance made the emperor feel even more depressed.
But he already had a plan in mind at this moment, and had already ordered the Flying Guillotine to collect the blood of the Sixth Prince.
No matter what happens, the results will be known soon, so there is no need to rush.
The three of them waited for only about an incense stick of time before a man who looked unfamiliar to the queen came in.
He hurried to the emperor and presented a jade bottle with both hands. "Your Majesty, I have taken it."
The emperor nodded slightly and said, "Go get some water."
The visitor placed the jade bottle on the table, turned around and went out. After a while, he returned with a bowl of water and handed over a silver needle.
The emperor reached out to take the silver needle, but before he could move, he was interrupted by the queen, "Your Majesty, you can't!"
The emperor frowned and looked up at the other party. "How is it?"
The Queen stood up and walked over, saying anxiously, "The Emperor's body must not be harmed. If you want a blood test, summon Prince Guo to the palace and we'll do it!"
The emperor was obviously so excited by this incident that he didn't care about the details.
He waved his hand and said, "It's just a drop of blood. How can a small injury compare to the purity of the royal bloodline?"
After he finished speaking, without waiting for the queen to say anything more, he took the silver needle and inserted it into his finger.
There was an almost audible "tick-tock" sound, and the person next to him held the jade bottle again and dropped a drop of the Sixth Prince's blood into the water.
Several people stared at the small bowl without moving their eyes.
It seemed like an eternity had passed before the emperor, his face livid, slammed his hand on the table. "Bitch!"
The one who cursed was naturally Concubine Xi.
The Queen quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he couldn't hide it completely.
Without him.
Blood doesn't mix!
The blood test is to test kinship, and those whose blood mixes are relatives.
The scene before his eyes at this moment has clearly shown that the Sixth Prince is not the Emperor's biological son!
The emperor's rapid breathing lasted for a long time and he could not calm down.
But for some reason, he still had no intention of speaking again.
The queen knelt for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and looked up at the other party, but saw that the emperor's eyes were still fixed on the small bowl with two drops of blood.
Just as he was about to say something, the emperor suddenly spoke.
"Xia Yi, summon Prince Guo to the palace."
"Yes."
Xia Qian turned and left. The Emperor continued, "Noble Lady Qi, you have been commended for exposing Noble Consort Xi. You will be promoted to the rank of Concubine from today. However, I do not want anyone else to know about this. Do you understand?"
A trace of unconcealable joy flashed across Concubine Qi's eyes, and she immediately kowtowed and replied, "Yes, I obey your order. Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"
"Go back to your palace. I have something to discuss with the Queen."
"Yes, the concubine is retiring."
Concubine Qi left with a smile on her face, but the emperor's expression remained unchanged.
"Concubine Qi is stupid and she alone has no ability to investigate this matter. Queen, did you instruct her to do this?"
The emperor's eyes were full of coldness, and there was even a hint of murderous intent in the look he gave the queen.
The Queen's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly bowed her head and replied, "Your Majesty, this is the first time I've heard of this. If I had known about it earlier, how could I have dared to conceal it?"
The emperor's expression was unclear, and it seemed that he was struggling in his heart.
After a long time, he said, "Forget it, get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"What the Queen said makes sense. This matter involves the reputation of the royal family, and it is not for others to know. Since Concubine Qi already knows, she can no longer stay. I will leave this matter to you."
The queen's heart tightened, but she was not too surprised by what the emperor said.
The royal family's reputation is above all else. How can a mere concubine who has long lost the emperor's favor compare with it?
