Chapter 371: The Past of the Former Empress (1)
h several people.Soon, two women and two men were escorted back.Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang dismounted, and the four of them knelt down, bowing their heads. They dared not raise their heads, looking jus...The emperor's cold eyes glared at him, gritting his teeth slightly. "How is it Knowing the repulsive face of your mother, don't you feel... your blood... is extremely filthy!"
Mo Yunjing's eyes sharpened. He put the letter away and stared fixedly at the emperor:
"My blood is half yours. Even if it's filthy, it's because of you. Patricide and fratricide, harming your own kin to reach the throne, how clean is your blood Oh right, there's also the charge of murdering another."
The matter of killing one's father and wiping out one's brothers is something that should never be mentioned before the emperor. At this moment, Mo Yunjing just so blatantly exposed the matter, and the emperor's face instantly turned purple.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he glared at Mo Yunjing with viciousness, "Good, you are truly my good son."
In the midst of their conversation, the emperor couldn't help but let out a cold snort. “While Mo Yunchen may be your brother, he is not my son! So how could I possibly bear the guilt of the Wuchi crime”
“...”
One shocking secret after another came crashing down, and Mo Yun Jing nearly lost control of his expression.
But luckily, the expression on his face was only a fleeting moment of astonishment, and the emperor didn't notice.
Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes, "My older brother looks seven points like you. Anyone can see that it's your blood. To discredit my mother and to have an excuse to get rid of my older brother, you even weave such lies, truly impressive!"
"Don't believe it"
The emperor let out a cold, self-deprecating chuckle and said, “I thought Mo Yunchen was my first son, inheriting my intelligence and your mother's kindness and compassion. He would have been an exceptional ruler.”
"I always believed he was the first child born to me and my beloved woman. I poured so much love and energy into him, but what did I get in the end"
“To secure his position, I broke precedent and named him crown prince at the age of two. To prevent my other children from vying for the throne with him, I granted them fiefdoms upon your birth and made them kings. Every single thing I have done, hasn't it all been to pave the way for him Haven't I done everything for his sake”
"But in the end, I found that I had been deceived by that wretch for so long. That wretch treated me like a monkey and played me for so many years. In the end, I couldn't even bear to take her life myself. What more do you want from me"
Because of her, I've been a fool, raising that bastard for so many years on behalf of others. Just thinking about how I even considered giving the throne to that wretch makes me unable to forgive myself! Every time I see him, I can't forget how foolishly your mother tricked me!
The emperor called him a wretch. Mo Yunjing clenched his fists, his voice cold, "How do you determine that my imperial brother is not your blood Did someone write to you again Everyone can see that your elder brother looks so much like you, yet as the ruler of a country, you can't even discern such a simple conspiracy!"
"Conspiracy Hahaha"
The emperor laughed hysterically, throwing his head back, "Conspiracy Do you know it was the Imperial Physician I personally appointed who performed the blood test to confirm the relationship between me and him"
"Before the results came, how could I have ever believed he wasn't my son"
"Do you know how much effort I have put into him"
"Do you know the despair, the rage that could destroy heaven and earth, the burning desire to kill your mother when I heard the imperial physician say he wasn't my biological son with my own ears You might understand"
Mo Yunjing pursed his lips. What the emperor had said today truly shocked him. Even if there was a son between him and his elder brother who wasn't the emperor's, it couldn't possibly be because of his older brother.
Which of the civil and military officials wouldn't praise their emperor brother's features His five senses were most similar to those of the emperor in his youth.
So, how could the Emperor's brother possibly not be the emperor's child
And as for his mother concubine's character, Mo Yunjing knew it well. His mother concubine would absolutely never betray the emperor.
There must be something wrong with one of the steps.
He, his elder brother, and the child yet to be born, would all surely be emperors!
In the deathly silence, the atmosphere was thick with tension. After a moment of strained silence between father and son, the emperor had regained his composure. He let out a cold sneer and continued,
"So now you know why I suddenly banished that woman to the cold palace all those years ago I stripped that wretch of his power, step by step, reducing him to a prisoner. If not for you defying me, I would have killed him long ago!"
"My mother concubine would never betray you!" Mo Yunjing said calmly, "My older brother is also your son. There must be some conspiracy in this matter. If you want to believe someone, it can't change anything. But you know in your heart who my older brother looks like."
"Haha"
The emperor's lips curled into a mocking smile. "So you think Chen the Imperial Physician from back then would deceive me When the blood was tested, I was there the whole time. My blood and that bastard's didn't merge. You're telling me I need to prove it further Isn't this enough to explain everything"
The emperor brought up the matter of blood recognition again. As soon as Mo Yunjing heard this, he suddenly remembered some things An Xuetang had told him before.ht for, Yun Yi knew he couldn't just leave.Even now, he worried terribly for the safety of the King and Queen.Mo Yunchen's face darkened, his icy eyes locked onto Yun Yi. "The order Jing gave back the...
