When he arrived outside the palace gate, he dismounted his horse and stopped his sedan chair.
The red sedan curtain was opened, and a woman bowed out of the sedan. Her face was covered with red gauze, her figure was slender and graceful, and she was holding a delicate baby doll in her hand.
The doll is two years old, with delicate appearance, fair skin, and a pair of big eyes as black as glass, blinking, just like a pink jade doll.
Just those facial features and outline made everyone present involuntarily turn their heads to look at Qi Jin.
Qi Jin naturally saw him, and his heart suddenly sank.
Rong Cang's eyebrows were furrowed, and a pair of eyes as deep as the sea fell on the child's face. For a moment, he slowly looked away and looked at the woman holding the child, his eyes as sharp as if he wanted to see through all the conspiracies.
The woman covered with red gauze has a beautiful and calm appearance, and her eyes are calm and unobtrusive, as if she is calm and indifferent after passing through thousands of sails. There is no trace of impetuousness in her body, and she does not look like a person who plays tricks on her mind.
"Is this the child that Master Qin was talking about?" Xie Lin looked at it casually, then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "It does look similar."
Like who? The answer is self-evident.
"Prince Qi, do you think this child looks familiar?" Dugu Yinyun smiled and looked directly at Qi Jin, "The prince and the emperor's sister were in love with each other back then, which caused the emperor's sister to have a dark knot in her pregnancy, but he patted her butt. Flying away, leaving their mother and son behind in Mobei to be looked down upon and suffer a lot, Crown Prince Qi is really chilling."
Qi Jin's eyes were full of anger: "You fart!"
"Prince Qi doesn't want to acknowledge this child?" Dugu Yinyun raised his eyebrows, his eyes revealing his determination to win, "This child looks so similar to Crown Prince Qi, it's impossible for us to fabricate it out of thin air."
Qi Jin gritted his teeth and wanted to refute but couldn't find a reason.
Although he never remembered what really happened between him and Princess Mobei, the child's appearance was so similar that even a blind man could not deny their relationship.
"Let's talk in the palace first." Rong Cang withdrew his eyes from Princess Mobei's face, turned around and walked forward, thinking of countermeasures in his mind as he walked.
This child is indeed irrefutable evidence. Even if Qi Jin says that he has no knowledge, others will not believe it.
After all, Princess Mobei shouldn't be stupid enough to get a child to frame Qi Jin. Even if she had this idea, she wouldn't be able to create one without Qi Jin's cooperation.
But Rong Cang knew what happened back then, and he also knew that Qi Jin would never have such a close relationship with Princess Mobei willingly.
Qi Jin's heart seemed to be shrouded in a layer of gloom.
If Dugu Yinyun insists on using this child as a certification to establish a close relationship between him and Mobei, how should he prove his innocence?
"Don't worry." A cold female voice suddenly sounded in my ears. Even though it was low, it still had a soothing softness. "The child belongs to me alone. He can't frame you."
Qi Jin turned around and looked.
Princess Mobei walked behind him, holding the well-behaved child in her hand, walking gracefully and calmly without any panic.
The child would also secretly look at Qi Jin, his big dark eyes showing curiosity and expectation, wondering if he was waiting for the right time to recognize his father.
When Qi Jin met the child's eyes, a strange warmth arose in his heart. He even wanted to pick him up and ask him, "Who is your father?"
Could it be that this is a spiritual connection between father and son?
But this kind of spiritual connection can kill people. When he goes to the palace later, how should he explain his relationship with this child?
Was this princess talking to me just now?
She said don’t worry, he can’t slander him.
The "he" in front refers to the Prince of Mobei. What does this mean? Princess Mobei knows her royal brother's plan, but she doesn't intend to cooperate?
Qi Jin was thinking in his mind that he had many questions to ask her. He wanted to ask whether the child was his. If it was his, what happened three years ago?
Why does he know nothing and have no impression?
But now they have arrived at the foot of the stone steps outside the palace.
Rong Cang raised his hand to signal to Dugu Yinyun, then turned around and climbed up the steps, walked up the palace steps step by step, and stepped into the palace door.
The main hall was majestic and solemn, with Emperor Mu and the Queen sitting on dragon and phoenix chairs in front.
The officials of Chu State were sitting on the left side, and dozens of pairs of eyes in the main hall were looking at the envoy from Mobei who followed the prince.
"The little king Dugu Yinyun, the prince of Mobei, came with his envoys to meet with the Emperor of Chu and the empress." Dugu Yinyun bowed and saluted with a courteous attitude. He did not look like an enemy who had been fighting for years. The king came here this time, firstly, to present Princess Mobei and enter into a marriage alliance with the Chu State; secondly, to allow his nephew to find his biological father, recognize his ancestor and return to the clan, and hope that His Majesty the Emperor will make a wise decision."
From the moment they entered the palace, Emperor Mu's eyes fell on the little man behind Dugu Yinyun, and he kept looking back and forth between him and Qi Jin, his eyes particularly shocked, with a bit of displeasure. I can't believe it.
picture.
It's so similar.
Although I don’t know how Qin Taifu knew that the Mobei royal family had such a child, when this child came to the palace, even if no one knew who his father and mother were in advance, it did not affect everyone’s judgment at this time.
This child and Qi Jin are clearly carved from the same mold. Who dares to deny the father-son relationship between them?
"The prince has come from afar, and I welcome you." Emperor Mu quickly looked away, suppressed the surprise in his heart, and spoke majestically, "I just don't know what happened to the child the prince brought? Who is his biological father? "
The topic fell on the child so quickly, so fast that Dugu Yinyun was satisfied, and Taifu Qin, who was sitting at the head of the civil servants, was naturally satisfied as well.
He wanted to see, this child looked so much like Qi Jin, who could deny the relationship between them?
Dugu Yinyun smiled, looked around the hall, and saw the different expressions of everyone with satisfaction: "This child has been beautiful since he was a child, like a little fairy boy in the sky. Anyway, Mobei people don't have such beautiful children. Your Majesty the Emperor You should be able to tell who he looks like. If the ministers of Chu State have no problem with their eyesight, there is no need to doubt that the father of the child is your Prince Qi."
Qi Jin clenched his hands, avoiding the child's expectant eyes, and said coldly: "Prince Dugu randomly brought a child over and said it was mine. Is there any evidence? Is it just because he looks like me? But all the worlds have the same looks. It’s not that there aren’t many people, this little evidence is not convincing enough.”
Dugu Yinyun was obviously sure of victory and smiled confidently: "Prince Qi went to Mobei three years ago, didn't he?"
Qi Jin's voice was cold: "Prince Dugu knows best why my prince appeared in Mobei three years ago!"
"Of course I know it. Prince Qi and Gu's sister are in love, and their love is as deep as the sea. But at that time, the war between Chu State and Mobei was about to break out. Our two countries are mortal enemies. You want to propose a marriage, but your His Royal Highness the King of War did not agree, so you were forcibly taken away by him, leaving the emperor's sister alone, missing each other, and crying every day. Two months after the prince left, the emperor's sister found out that she was pregnant, and she was immediately ruined and almost ruined her reputation. They were sentenced to death by their father, and then they knelt alone for three days before begging for mercy to save their mother and son."
After saying that, Dugu Yinyun turned to look at his imperial sister and said to Emperor Mu: "This is my imperial sister Princess Qixia, whose maiden name is Yuxi. She was in love with Prince Qi three years ago."
