The King of Liang, the feudal lords outside the town, and the generals inside

Before everyone could ask any more questions, Shen Qing quickly took out a bright yellow scroll from his sleeve, which looked like an imperial decree.He said loudly: "This is the edict that Emperor Jingrang left to the old man before his death. In the edict, he clearly stated that he had a grandson living outside, and that child had a red birthmark the size of a copper coin on his left arm. He I hope that after the Cen Clan is destroyed, the emperor’s grandson can recognize his ancestors and return to his clan, and expose the fake prince who was used by the Cen Clan to usurp the throne! All loyal and good ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, don’t you still obey the edict?!”

Grand Master Yin took two steps forward and said, "Let us have a look at the imperial edict."

Shen Qing readily handed it to him, and several first-rank civil and military ministers inspected it together for a long time, and they all fell silent by coincidence.

—they saw no signs of fraud.

At this time, King Dingshun felt a little inexplicably flustered and frightened, and unconsciously leaned against Bai Yu.Bai Yu held his cold right hand through the cover of the wide sleeves, and gave him a comforting look.

His composure gave King Dingshun a reassurance. He straightened his back and stood up straighter.

"Then, Prime Minister Shen is saying that the prince with the birthmark on his left arm is King Dingshun?" Ma Situ asked.

"That's right." Shen Qing nodded confidently, then turned to Dingshun Wangdao, "Your Highness, lift up your sleeves and show them."

King Dingshun pursed his lips tightly, forming a straight line.He didn't move, and didn't dare to look into Shen Qing's eyes, and once again shrank towards Bai Yu.

Shen Qing frowned, "Your Highness?"

Bai Yu smiled deeply, but that smile was as cold as the snow outside, with a cold radiance.He said: "Yes, you don't have to be afraid, the imperial edict in Shen Xiang's hand is written by the emperor's grandfather himself, there is no fake. Isn't it, Shen Xiang?"

"That's natural." Shen Qing said perfunctorily, feeling a little impatient, he reached out and grabbed King Dingshun's left wrist, raised it high, and rolled up his sleeve with the other hand.

King Dingshun was dragged staggeringly by him, but it was Shen Qing who froze immediately.

King Dingshun's left sleeve had been pulled up to his shoulder, but there was no birthmark on his left arm, only a small scar.

There was silence in the hall.

The muscles on Shen Qing's face twitched distinctly.

A trace of fanatical joy flashed across his white jade eyes, and then disappeared in his tranquility like a mirror.

Shen Qing was stupefied and tugged at King Dingshun's arm, and it took a long time before he heard a minister whispering to the people around him, "Have you seen the birthmark? Could it be that my eyesight is blurry, why didn't I see anything?"

"No, I didn't see it either."

……

Shen Qing suddenly began to vigorously rub the scar on King Dingshun's left arm, and even poured out the water from a vase next to it to rinse, but nothing changed, but the rubbing made King Dingshun's skin red, and he grinned in pain.

Shen Qing also lifted up King Dingshun's right sleeve to look at it, still not giving up, and then carefully examined King Dingshun's face, thinking it was a human skin mask.

The result was not what he wanted.

This is King Dingshun, who has no birthmark on his left arm.

Yan Xun said coldly, "Master Shen, where is the birthmark?"

"Did you remove the birthmark?" Shen Qing stared at King Dingshun and asked.

King Dingshun lowered his head and muttered, "I don't have a birthmark on my body, did Prime Minister Shen make a mistake?"

"Impossible! You must have done something wrong!" Shen Qing couldn't control it.

Tai Changqing couldn't help saying: "As Shen Xiang said, if King Dingshun is really the son of the late emperor, and this birthmark is his identity proof, then how could he remove the birthmark himself?"

"He..." Shen Qing was speechless for a moment, speechless.

Bai Yu slowly adjusted the tassels hanging from the jade pendant around his waist, and suddenly let out a chuckle, which immediately attracted everyone's attention in the silent hall.This abrupt laugh made the atmosphere even more weird, like a cat's paw, scratching fiercely at the tip of everyone's heart.

Bai Yu pulled Shen Qing away from the hand that was holding on to King Dingshun, and protected him behind him, and then he pulled up his left sleeve, his skin was more dazzling than snow.Yan Xun suddenly thought of the phrase "Three feet of cold pool soaked in bright jade" at this moment of daggers and swords, and that's probably what it looked like.

All eyes were on Baiyu's left arm, the red birthmark the size of a copper coin was particularly dazzling against Baiyu's complexion.He raised his eyebrows, and said: "Is this what Shen Xiang said?"

There was a crash in Shen Qing's mind, and he fixedly stared at Bai Yu with eyes that could devour people.

Bai Yu smiled, and Peerless's face immediately became vivid and bright.He put down his sleeves, and said crisply: "Master Chen made a mistake, I am the emperor's grandson mentioned in the emperor's grandfather's edict."

He is much younger than all the ministers here, and his face is full like the best moon on the fifteenth night, just looking at him makes people feel pity.

Yan Xun didn't say a word - he never knew that Bai Yu had a birthmark in all these years.

But there was a stubborn one who insisted on asking: "General Yan, has the birthmark on King Liang's body been there all along?"

"Of course it has always been there." It was not Yan Xun who spoke, but Qin Ran.

"How did General Qin know?" Zhong Shuling asked.

Mu Fengyi smiled and said: "We heard what Yuchi Yuanhe said. Once when we talked about the scar on the face of the last general, Yuchi Yuanhe said that he saw the birthmark on the arm of His Highness Liang Wang that day and thought it was a scar, so he asked casually. said a word."

Zhongshuling was silent.

Everyone's expressions were very strange, Yan Xun's face was covered with a cloud, but he was still calm.

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice asked: "If this is the case, is the other prince still alive? Why is King Dingshun considered the prince by Shen Que?"

Before Shen Qing could open his mouth, Bai Yu said first: "I can answer your lord's second question first. King Dingshun is indeed the son of King Xuanda and his wife. It's just that Princess Xuanda and my mother concubine had a good relationship back then, and they had been friends many times. Visiting the palace, both of them were pregnant at that time. When she came out of the palace for the last time, the princess had a sudden abdominal pain and gave birth prematurely. Before returning to the palace, she gave birth to King Dingshun in the carriage. It was just an accident. Unexpectedly, it was later exploited by someone with a heart, and a sinister plan came into being. Because King Dingshun was born around the same time as me, he half coerced and half lured King Xuanda to agree to cooperate with him, and use his own son to pretend to be the prince , pretending that the princess carried the child out of the palace. The birthmark was originally intended to be disguised when needed. As for why King Dingshun's birthday was a year earlier than mine, it was because King Xuanda later regretted it. He refused to cooperate with this person out of consideration for his life or conscience. In order to protect his son, he told the outside world that he was one year older. Poor King Dingshun was wronged innocently. He has been criticized by rumors for so many years. It's really a crime."

He sighed as he spoke, and looked at King Dingshun with pity.

"Who is that person His Highness mentioned?" Guang Luqing asked quickly.

Bai Yu stared at him, turned her expression back, and asked, "Isn't this obvious?"

As if everyone's confusion at the beginning suddenly had a place to go, Qi Qi looked at Shen Qing.

Shen Qing's breathing was very heavy, slowly revealing his frightened heart at the moment.

Bai Yu was much calmer than him, her dark eyes were bottomless, "Master Shen, Prime Minister Shen. Or should I call you...Fu Meng Qingtai?"

Shen Qing was shocked violently, a sharp gasp could be clearly heard in the silent hall, and then he staggered two steps, almost unable to stand.

"Ah, you're flustered." Bai Yu said coldly, "You don't deserve the name 'Shen Qing'. He is the prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty and a loyal guardian of the country. What are you?"

Shen Qing trembled and retorted sharply, "King Liang! You, you are talking nonsense, you..."

"Even if you imprison him, replace his identity, and tarnish his reputation, what is fake is still fake. If you don't hide your fox tail well, can anyone else be blamed?" Bai Yu's ending sound was like a cruising. The little snake wrapped around Shen Qing's neck round and round until he collapsed and suffocated.

Bai Yu then questioned desperately: "Just now I said why Prime Minister Shen suddenly destroyed his reputation in his dying years, so now we have the answer, because you are not Shen Qing at all! Prime Minister Shen's mentor 21 years ago , Fumeng reprimanded that he was going west with the crane, and Shen Xiang had a deep relationship with him as a teacher and disciple. He went to Haiwei to express his condolences, but he was stopped by you on the way! Shen Xiang disappeared for two months, and those two months were exactly what you used Come observe and imitate his time! After Shen Xiang returned to the country, many people—especially his family members thought that he seemed haggard and gloomy, but they only thought it was because of missing their teacher. No one would have thought that at this moment Prime Minister Shen has already been replaced by you—you are Prime Minister Shen's twin brother!"

Bai Yu finished speaking in one breath, paused for a while, and turned to the stupid ministers and ministers, "Is the story told by the civet cat just now very fascinating? Why can only one of the twins be kept, and the other one has a chance to live?" It is true that he was sent to be raised by others in order to replace the dead ghost, but it did not happen to me. The prototype of this story is himself! Are you very unfair these years? The prime minister with more than [-] people, but you, a fellow brother, will be thrown away by your parents and raised by a barbarian couple, and you will not be able to recognize your ancestors for the rest of your life? This is too unfair, isn't it?"

"King Liang is so eloquent, and the stories he made up are also very ups and downs." Shen Qing's entire face was distorted.

"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it." Bai Yu said indifferently, "Then I will invite you to meet another person."

Heavy unease and fear swept over, Shen Qing's face changed a few times, and finally fixed on stiffness.

When this person came in, Bai Yu said: "Before I was still thinking, why do you want me to find a way to make King Wu'an leave the capital."

Yan Xun's eyebrows moved, and he heard Bai Yu continue: "So it's because the only minister in the court today who has gone through the old things with Shen Xiang and can speak up is King Wu An. If he is here, many of you Lies can be exposed immediately."

As he spoke, an old figure in cassock slowly stepped outside the hall.
