Glaring angrily at Tubuxin who spoke out to stop him, Wu Yun's brows and eyes contained Senhan's bloodthirsty murderous intent, as well as a hint of disappointment and sadness.

After seeing the contents of the letter sent by Qing'er, although she was deeply horrified, she still refused to believe that he would have disobedient intentions. Even though she and Qing'er had arranged everything long ago, just now,

She also thought that as long as he stopped his plan, she would forget about family ties and let things be bygones.

Unexpectedly...

Qing'er has a good saying, being kind to the enemy is cruel to yourself. Since he is stubborn, don't blame her for being cruel!

"The humble minister is not disobeying the emperor's will." Tubuxin stood up, cupped his hands and said: "It's just that the blood of the royal family cannot be tarnished. Even if Ajima talks nonsense, the emperor will always give her a chance to defend herself, so as not to harm the emperor.

Majesty can also convince the people of the world, please think again, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, please think twice!"

Seeing that at least one-third of the ministers agreed with Tubuxin, Wu Yun was heartbroken and secretly glad that only these people were attached to Tubuxin. If all the civil and military ministers in the dynasty were like this, her throne would be unstable, and the country would also be in danger.

!

Thinking of this, Wuyun glanced at Tubuxin, who had a respectful and upright attitude, then looked directly at Ajima and said solemnly: "Ajima, I will give you a chance. If you tell the truth, I can spare you."

Immortal, if you tell lies, I will cut you into pieces! You only have one chance, so you have to think clearly."

Ajima's heart skipped a beat, and she glanced at Tubuxin secretly, then lowered her head to hide the panic and luck in her eyes: "Back then..."

It turns out that Ajima was a maid who had served the Empress Dowager since she was a child. She was deeply trusted and loved by the Empress Dowager. When the Empress Dowager married the Supreme Emperor, who was still the prince, Ajima naturally entered the palace as a dowry maid.

The Empress Dowager and the Supreme Emperor were a loving couple after their marriage. Unfortunately, the Empress Dowager was unable to give birth to a son or a daughter until the Supreme Emperor ascended the throne as emperor.

Seeing that several concubines in the harem were pregnant one after another, although a few could not keep it, the eldest princess, the fourth princess, especially the prince Geser born to the concubine Jin were already several years old, and the empress dowager was worried that her position would not be guaranteed.

Suddenly panicked.

She originally planned to secretly pick up a baby boy from outside the palace and pretend to be of royal blood, but she never thought that Ajima had been in love with the Emperor's personal guard Wu En for a long time and was more than a month pregnant, so the Empress Dowager took action.

First, he bribed the imperial doctor and lied that he was pregnant for more than a month, then persuaded the emperor to betroth Ejima to Wu En, then gave Ejima a large sum of money to send her out of the palace, and gave her a house to the two of them.

After all, Ajima was married and had a child, and it was against the rules to stay in the palace. At the same time, he sent his personal maid Ijili to take care of Ajima.

In the blink of an eye, more than eight months later, the Empress Dowager gave birth to Princess Wuyun, and the whole country celebrated.

Ejima, who gave birth on the same day, fainted from exhaustion after giving birth. When she woke up, she learned from Ijili that her son had died due to congenital defects.

Igiri was the empress dowager's personal nanny and had always taken good care of Ajima. The empress dowager was very kind to her. Even though she was heartbroken, she had no doubts and slowly accepted this fact.

A month later, a grand full-moon banquet was held in the palace for Princess Wuyun. The Queen Mother sent someone to send a message to Ajima, telling her to rest well and not have to enter the palace. However, Ajima missed the master and servant, and the princess was overjoyed.

On that day, I still brought gifts to Fukang Palace.

Unexpectedly, there was no one in the palace. Ajima wanted to leave, but she didn't expect that the princess's cry suddenly came from the inner room.

Thinking of her son who unfortunately died young, Ajima suddenly felt compassion and hurriedly entered the inner room. To her surprise, the princess stopped crying as soon as she saw her and smiled at her. She even saw it inadvertently.

A gray cloud birthmark on the inner side of the princess's calf.

Ejima remembered that after her child was born, even though she was exhausted and about to pass out, she still noticed a birthmark on the inner side of her child's calf that was exactly the same as the princess's. It reminded her of when Ijili told her that the child had died in infancy.

, there was clearly a hint of guilt in her sympathetic eyes, and when she thought about how the empress dowager sent people to prevent her from entering the palace, a bold guess emerged in her mind.

Before Ajima could think about it, the Queen Mother took people back to Fukang Palace. Seeing her there, a trace of panic clearly flashed in her eyes.

The more Ejima thought about it when she returned home, the more suspicious she became, but before she could unravel her doubts, her husband Wu En died in the line of duty while protecting the assassinated Emperor, and she was also chased by unknown men in black.

She fell off a cliff outside the city. Fortunately, a woodcutter saved her from serious injuries and fell into a coma. It took her 16 years in the mountains to recover.

During those sixteen years, Ajima became more and more convinced that what she gave birth to was not a son, but a daughter, Princess Wuyun. It was the Queen Mother who instigated Ijili to snatch away her daughter while she was in a coma. At the same time, she was worried that she would lose her daughter if things were revealed.

They sent people to kill her to silence her, so as soon as she recovered, she embarked on the road to regain her daughter.

However, she had been away for sixteen years with a low status. The guards at the palace gate did not recognize her at all. She could not even enter the palace. Moreover, without evidence, it was not easy for her to get her daughter back.

I heard that grandma Yijili returned to her hometown for retirement three years ago, so Ajima rushed to Yijili's hometown. It took her several years to find the anonymous Yijili. After begging for several months, Yijili finally told her,

Princess Wu Yun is her biological daughter, Wu En's death in the line of duty, and the man in black who hunted her were all a conspiracy of the Queen Mother. In addition, the evidence that had been preserved for many years was handed over to her.

Returning to the capital, just a few days before the enthronement ceremony, Ajima spent a lot of money to bribe the emissary to sneak into the palace, and decided to expose the Empress Dowager's conspiracy in public at the banquet, find her daughter, and reunite mother and daughter.

"Your Majesty, I am really your biological mother!" Ajima said with tears, and took out a small cloth bag wrapped in it: "Your Majesty, this is what Yijili gave to me, indicating that the Empress Dowager ordered her to leave me.

I’ll take away your blood letter and the clothes I embroidered for you, and ask your Majesty to take a look at them!”

After hearing Ajima's bloody accusation, the whole place was in an uproar.

"Could it be that the emperor is really not of royal blood, otherwise there wouldn't be strange phenomena happening one after another during the day."

"I remember that Wu En's appearance seems to be 70-80% similar to that of the Supreme Emperor." A low voice muttered, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

"Yes, Wu En exchanged clothes with the Supreme Emperor. The assassin mistakenly thought that Wu En was the Supreme Emperor, so he killed him."

"Also, the Empress Dowager has not given birth to an heir for so many years, and the subsequent emperor's heir also had an unexpected miscarriage. Could it be that the Empress Dowager really robbed the daughter of a minister?"

...

Scanning his clear eyes across the whispering crowd, Qingyun frowned, feeling extremely worried about the situation Wu Yun would face now and in the future.

It is inherently difficult for a woman to become an emperor. Without the support of strong forces, the throne of the emperor is in danger, and her life is also in danger.

Look at the civil and military ministers of the Zhou Kingdom present. They have not yet confirmed whether what Ajima said is true or false, so they question Wu Yun. Even the ministers who have been following Wu Yun remain silent. Wu Yun wants to stabilize the throne, control the ministers, and make the Zhou Kingdom prosperous.

To achieve prosperity, there is still a long way to go.

Compared to Wu Yun, she is much luckier. Not only does she have the trust and support of her relatives, but she also has the full assistance of loyal ministers like Taifu Han and the Protector, as well as the support of soldiers and subjects, so she is more worried about Wu Yun.

Looking at Ajima with a desolate and angry face, the Emperor's eyes flashed with shock and doubt.

Yahui is his beloved wife, Wuyun is the daughter he has loved for more than ten years, and Wuen is his bodyguard, but he and he are brothers.

It was hard for him to believe that the gentle and demure Yahui would rob Wu En and Ejima's daughter for his own selfish purposes. In addition to that assassination, the assassin was obviously targeting him. If Yahui wanted to kill Wu En, there were many ways.

It is absolutely impossible not to consider his safety.

But Ajima not only spoke conclusively, she also provided evidence.

What the hell is going on?

Wuyun glanced sideways at Qinggertai, who then walked up to Ajima, took the cloth bag in her hand and returned to the main seat to present it to Wuyun with both hands.

Opening the cloth bag wrapped in it, he first looked carefully at the slightly yellowed blood book with solidified blood, and then at the small set of clothes embroidered with gray cloud patterns, and the dark clouds smacked towards him with a 'pop' sound.

The tabletop shook so much that everyone's hearts trembled, and everyone fell silent.

Staring at Ejima angrily, Dark Cloud's brows and eyes flashed with a cold air, and his voice was as soft as a cold needle piercing deeply: "Bold Ejima, you think you can just forge a so-called blood letter and just use a set of baby's clothes?"

Is it okay to confuse the public and slander the reputation of the royal family? Someone, drag her down and cut her to pieces immediately!"

Ejima was immediately frightened out of her mind. She kept kowtowing and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, that blood letter was really written by Igiri in front of me. I did not forge it. Those clothes and pants were also the ones you wore when you were born.

After Yijili carried you back to the palace, she changed into new clothes and hid her secretly. What I said is true. Please understand, Your Majesty!"

"Ijili is willing to write this bloody letter to you, indicating that she is willing to testify for you, so where is Ijili? Call her here immediately, and I will interrogate her in person!"

"She, she is dead."

"That is to say, there is no proof!" Wu Yun snorted coldly: "Ajima, you want to confuse right and wrong and frame the current empress dowager based on your words. What crime should you deserve?"

Ajima's face turned pale, and her whole body couldn't stop trembling: "I didn't! If the emperor doesn't believe it, let me confront that woman!"

Confronted face to face?

Qingyun Qingli's face was as calm as water, and her eyes were bottomless. Unless Ajima was completely sure, she would not dare to say this and look confident.

Tubuxin suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. You might as well ask the Queen Mother to come out and explain it clearly, so that everyone in the world can get an explanation!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good..."
