Fortunately, the princess was saved by an old woman, but Xuewei was seriously injured and unfortunately died. Not long ago, I met the princess and the old woman by chance in Cuifeng Mountain, and I learned that the old woman Liu had

It was Chen's parents Xu Xian and Bai who had treated patients many years ago. They were also kind to my father. She believed in Chen's character, so she handed the jade pendant to Chen and entrusted the princess to him. Since then, Chen has been secretly

After investigation, we finally found out that the source of the jade pendant came from the palace, and then we found out that Miss Yu Yan is the princess. I dare to tell the truth to the Emperor Ming and ask for His Majesty's clear judgment."

"Sir Xu, how can you conclude that this woman is a princess based on just a jade pendant? If you randomly find a girl to confuse the royal bloodline, it will be an even greater crime." Cao Qian's provocative tone did not affect the official.

Lin, he continued to report to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, everything I said is true. Queen Rencheng's maid Xuemei can testify. She is waiting outside."

"Quick announcement."

"Yes, Xuemei, the maidservant, is here to see you." Eunuch Li shouted.

"My slave Xuemei is here to see you, Your Majesty. Long live, long live, long live." Xuemei stepped forward and knelt down.

"Xuemei, please tell us the situation again."

"Yes, I obey my order. When Concubine Yu was in labor, she suffered from abdominal pain for most of the night. There was indeed a sign of dystocia. Later, after Concubine Yu drank the birth-inducing medicine brought by Xuehui, she immediately went into shock. Po Wen had no choice but to force the princess to be born.

The empress woke up from severe pain and had lost too much blood. When she was dying, she hid the jade pendant given by the emperor in the princess's swaddling clothes. She ordered Xuewei to carry the princess and run away overnight. After that, the empress passed away. The slaves endured, endured, and waited.

I am not afraid of being tired or enduring hardships, just to one day be able to redress my grievances for my empress and ask your Majesty to take a closer look." Xuemei shed tears, and the Emperor was stunned.

"Even if what you said is true, how can you prove that this girl was the baby back then?"

"When I returned to the emperor, the first time I saw Miss Yuyan, I was convinced that she was a princess, because she looked so much like the empress. When the princess was born, she had the same rouge between her eyebrows as empress Yu Yan, and another one.

What no one knows is that there is a red birthmark the size of a thumb on the left side of the princess's waist. This secret was only known to me, Xuewei, and Po Wen who were in the delivery room at that time." When Xuemei revealed this secret, everyone was shocked.

Already.

"Send someone to take Miss Yu Yan to check and report immediately." The emperor said to Eunuch Li beside him.

"Yes." With that said, Eunuch Li led Yu Yan out.

"You just said that the person who delivers medicine to the Queen is named Xuehui?"

"When I get back to the emperor, it's true that Xuehui is the maid in Concubine Cao's palace."

"Bring Xuehui."

"Back to the emperor, my maid Xuehui committed suicide by throwing herself into the lake sixteen years ago." Gu Zhong added.

"What...?" The emperor was surprised again. He recalled that he had not seen the maid beside the queen for a long time, and he had no memory of her.

"Your Majesty, sixteen years ago the Queen heard that Concubine Yu was having a difficult childbirth, so she sent her to deliver birth-inducing medicine in the hope that Concubine Yu could give birth smoothly. Later, Concubine Yu unfortunately died. The Empress asked Xuehui about this matter, but she couldn't tell her. The reason for this is that who knew she would throw herself into the lake, it is really an accident." Cao Gan explained.

"Why don't you report these things to me?"

"The emperor was traveling back to the palace at that time. When he heard that Queen Rencheng had passed away, he was deeply saddened. I really did not dare to disturb the emperor anymore, so I did not report the truth. Please forgive me, the emperor." Cao Qian said.

"Mr. Xuan." The emperor thought for a while and said. After a while, Dr. Du arrived in the imperial study.

"I see you, Your Majesty, long live long live, long live long live." Dr. Du kowtowed.

"Du Qing's life."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Du Qing, tell me, can birth-inducing drugs cause maternal shock or even severe bleeding?"

"Back to the emperor, the birth-inducing medicine contains peach kernel, red peony root, peony bark, white poria, cinnamon and other medicinal materials. It can promote uterine rhythm, help the fetus to separate from the mother's body, and help the mother to give birth."

"Then what kind of medicine can cause maternal shock?"

"Back to the Emperor, if excessive use of birth-inducing drugs will cause shock to both the mother and the fetus, or even the fetus will be stillborn."

"Empress Rencheng died in childbirth sixteen years ago. Is there any examination at the Imperial Hospital?" The emperor's face changed slightly and he continued to ask.

"Going back to the emperor, when I left the palace with the emperor, the person in charge of the case was Doctor Dou."

"Back to the Emperor, Dou Liang resigned from office and returned to his hometown fifteen years ago. He contracted an illness and died three years ago." Gu Zhong added.

"It's such a coincidence that one drowned and the other resigned. I was only concerned with sadness at the time and didn't think of finding out the facts. Doctor Du, I order you to go back to the Tai's Hospital immediately to find out the matter."

"Yes, I obey the order." Imperial Physician Du exited the imperial study.

‘Cao Qian, Cao Duo and the others have really done their job so perfectly that no one can find any favorable evidence, but there is always something missing in every secret.’ Shi Lin thought to himself, when Eunuch Li came in.

"Reporting to the Emperor, it has been verified that Miss Yuyan does have a red birthmark the size of a thumb on the left side of her waist."

"Your Majesty, based on this, it still cannot be proven that Liu Yuyan is the princess. The royal blood cannot be confused. Your Majesty, please think again." Cao Gan said.

"What Cao Qing said is true, is there any more convincing evidence?"

"Returning to the emperor, I have no idea. I hope that the person who started the crime can appreciate the emperor's kindness and tell the truth without conscience. I believe that the emperor is kind and the queen is benevolent. He will definitely open up a wide circle, clear the princess's name, and restore General Yu's innocence. Concubine Yu's last wish." Shi Lin said generously, and Cao Qian couldn't help but feel guilty when he heard it.

"Last wish?" the emperor suddenly asked.

"Yes, Concubine Yu once entrusted me with a dream and asked for help. She was very clear in her heart. She said every word with blood and tears, which was heart-piercing. She didn't ask for anything. She only hoped that the princess could recognize her ancestors and return to the clan, and annihilate those who caused trouble in the court. We are on the right track." Shi Lin was not afraid of Cao Qian, and his face was filled with righteous indignation.

"Xu Shilin, don't be alarmist, so you use some gods, ghosts and demons to confuse right and wrong. You know that the emperor hates these things the most." Cao Gan said.

"Your Majesty, I have written down the words of your Majesty. Please read it." Seeing that Cao Qian had no regrets, Shi Lin submitted it without hesitation. The Emperor looked at the content on the paper, frowned, and looked at it. Cao Qian.

"Cao Xiangguo."

"I'm wronged, Your Majesty. I'm wronged. Please don't believe these ghostly words and believe Xu Shilin's deceptive words. I'm loyal to the Song Dynasty and to the Emperor. Heaven and earth can show it. It's absolutely impossible to frame Concubine Yu and the princess. The Empress and Concubine Yu are as close as sisters, and it is even more impossible for them to do such an outrageous thing. Please be enlightened." Before the Emperor could finish speaking, Cao Qian knelt down and defended.

"Why is it necessary for Prime Minister to be like this? There is not a single word in this memorial. I just wanted you to see it."

"The minister is scared." Cao Gan was embarrassed. "You Xu Shilin, how dare you fool me." He thought to himself.

"Gu Qing, what do you think?"

"Back to the emperor, the memorial without words is better than the words with words, hinting at grievances and causing sorrow; a stone stirs up thousands of waves, unintentionally planting willows to create shade; God's grace stretches to the north of the lonely sand, holding the pearl will eventually return." Gu Zhong cleverly chanted. As he chanted, Shilin nodded and smiled.

"What a heavenly grace that stretches across the north of Gusha, holding the pearl and finally returning, Princess Xuan comes to see you." After the emperor heard this, it was exactly what he wanted.

"Princess Xuan is here to meet you." Eunuch Li called. Yuyan slowly walked into the imperial study, lowered her head and knelt down to salute.

"People's daughter Liu Yuyan comes to see the emperor, long live long live long live."

"Yuyan, you are not a daughter of the people, you are my long-lost princess, please come up quickly." The emperor Long's face was gentle and his words were kind and soft. Cao Qian wanted to interfere again, but seeing the emperor's expression, he had to keep silent.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yu Yan stood up slowly and looked up at the Emperor. A pair of kind and concerned eyes were looking at him. The Emperor stepped down from the dragon throne, hung the jade pendant in his hand around Yu Yan's neck, and took her hand. Watching with a smile.

"Sure enough, you are exactly the same as Xiyu. My child, I have suffered so much for you these years. Now God has blessed you and has returned you to my hands. You will not suffer any harm in the future. I will make it up to you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yuyan said with tears in her eyes, holding the jade pendant in both hands. Shilin and Gu Zhong were happy for her.

"Princess, why are you still called Emperor? You should be called Father." Eunuch Li reminded from the side.

"Dad...Dad..." Yuyan threw herself into the emperor's arms and cried excitedly.

"Don't cry, child. It's hard to say 'Dad' this time, and it makes a father feel deeply guilty." The emperor held her in his arms and patted her gently.

"Your Majesty, the Queen is outside asking for an audience." The eunuch outside opened the door and reported.

"Xuan." The emperor helped Yu Yan up and took her hand.

"I, my concubine, send my regards to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor. Long live the Emperor." Cao Ling saluted.

"The queen's body is flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Cao Ling stood up and saw Yu Yan at the first sight, and was so surprised that she was speechless.

"I will pay my respects to the Queen, may you be blessed." Gu Zhong led his ministers to salute Cao Ling.

"You don't need to be too polite."

"Thank you, empress."

"Queen, you came just in time. Today I have to ask Prime Minister Guo, Xu Aiqing to return my princess, the daughter of Queen Rencheng, to the palace." The emperor brought Yu Yan to Cao Ling.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, I already know this, and I came here to visit the princess." Cao Ling was gentle and gentle. When she raised her face and saw Yu Yan, she was shocked. It was so similar, as if Concubine Yu was reincarnated, which made her panic again. .

"Yuyan has met the Queen." Yuyan bowed slightly.

"Princess, please get up quickly. God has mercy on me. My sister, Concubine Yu, has a spirit in heaven to protect my princess and return to court safely. Seeing that the princess has such a beautiful face and extraordinary charm, I am deeply gratified and happy for the emperor."

"The queen said well. I am going to canonize Yuyan as Princess Anping, but which palace is better to give it to?" The emperor sat back on the throne.

"To report to the emperor, why not give the Yuquan Palace where Queen Rencheng lived before her death to the princess? Wouldn't it be very meaningful?" Gu Zhong observed the queen and made suggestions.

"What Gu Aiqing said is absolutely true, and I am also prepared to do the same. I will formally confer the title tomorrow, but where should the princess live today?"

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. I sincerely request the Emperor to let the princess live in Fengxi Palace temporarily. She will take care of it personally. After the renovation of Yuquan Palace is completed, the princess will be moved in. There are also two princesses, An Yi and An Le, in the concubine's palace.

, I can keep Princess Anping as my companion. I, my concubine, and the queen sister are like sisters, and I will treat Princess Anping as my own. I will take good care of her to comfort my sister’s soul in heaven. I ask your Majesty to agree.” Cao Ling knelt down and asked.

"It is a blessing for the princess that the queen is so virtuous. I am very relieved to hand the princess over to the queen. I believe you will not let me down."
