Imperial city, side hall.

Ji Zhong brought Jia Jue into the hall, and gave him a complicated look:
"Young Master Jia, I am going to report to His Majesty."

Jia Jue smiled at him and said, "Master Lao Ji is here, sir, please go ahead."

Ji Zhong suddenly looked around and saw that no one was looking at him, so he leaned into his ear and whispered:
"No matter what happens, remember, you are only loyal to His Majesty, and you don't know anything else."

Jia Jue looked at him and smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Ji."

Ji Zhong patted him on the shoulder, turned and left.

Looking at his back, Jia Jue smiled sincerely. Ji Zhong seemed cunning, but at this moment he seemed to be quite loyal.

Not long after Ji Zhong left, an old eunuch walked in:
"Uncle, this old slave is ordered by His Majesty to come here to fetch something, please cooperate with Uncle."

Jia Jue nodded: "I don't know what it is?"

"Uncle's blood." The old eunuch replied.

"Ah? Why is that?" Jia Jue's face was full of "surprise".

"Uncle, this old slave doesn't know, this old slave is just following orders." The old eunuch replied.

Jia Jue hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Since it is His Majesty's order, I must obey it."

The old eunuch brought a small bowl, cut Jia Jue's finger with a knife, took some blood and left quickly.

Looking at his back, Jia Jue narrowed his eyes slightly. He looked at the wound on his hand and suddenly smiled.

……

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Jia Zheng stood in the hall with a pale face.

Just now Zhao Qi sent someone to take some blood from him, and he instantly understood Zhao Qi's intention.

He was planning to verify Jia Jue's identity by using the method of identifying relatives with a drop of blood.

But the point is that he and Jia Jue are not related by blood, their blood will not blend at all.

How can this be good?

How would he explain to Zhao Qi?
Just when he was uneasy, an old eunuch walked into the hall, holding a small bowl in his hand:
"Your Majesty, Uncle Renyi's blood has been taken."

Zhao Qi responded, and pointed to another small bowl on the side:
"You come and test."

The old eunuch immediately walked to the bowl of blood, poured some from Jia Jue's bowl, and dripped it into it.

Looking at this scene, Jia Zheng's legs trembled slightly.

However, the next moment, after Jia Jue's blood dripped into the bowl, it was completely different from his blood and did not merge at all.

Zhao Qi immediately looked at him, and asked coldly: "Jia Aiqing, how do you explain?"

Jia Zheng's face was pale, and his whole body trembled slightly:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. My minister, I don't know! Ziyu is my own, why is this so?"

Zhao Qizhong patted the table again: "Bold! How dare you lie to me!"

Jia Zheng's heart trembled, but he knelt down involuntarily, subconsciously keeping his promise:

"Your Majesty, I dare not deceive you!"

Zhao Qi looked at him coldly for a while, then suddenly glanced at Liu Tian who was at the side.

Liu Tian said quickly: "Your Majesty, this old servant deserves to die, but this blood was misplaced."

He quickly brought another bowl: "This is Mrs. Jia's."

"Ah?" Jia Zheng looked at Zhao Qi and Liu Tian in astonishment when he heard the words, and he was extremely glad that if he couldn't bear it just now and told the truth, everything would be over.

Zhao Qi shouted to Liu Tian indifferently: "You old bastard, if there is a next time, you will definitely be killed."

Liu Tian quickly responded: "Your Majesty, please do the test again?"

Zhao Qi waved his hand: "No need, it won't be allowed after a long time, take the bones."

He wanted to verify the relationship between Jia Zheng and Jia Jue just to get the truth out of Jia Zheng's mouth.

In fact, he didn't care at all whether Jia Jue was Jia Zheng's son, what he wanted to know was whether Jia Jue was Wu Yang's son.

Liu Tian ran out quickly after hearing the words.

Jia Zheng was at a loss when he heard the words, skeleton?What skeleton?
After a while, Liu Tian returned to the hall again, holding a tray in his hand, covered with a white cloth.

The old eunuch immediately took the tray from Liu Tian, ​​and then lifted the white cloth.

A human bone suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Jia Zheng's eyes widened, and he looked at Zhao Qi in shock.

Zhao Qi said lightly: "Jia Aiqing don't need to be surprised, this is the method of dripping bones."

In ancient times, there are two types of blood recognition, the first is the method of combining blood, which is to see whether the blood is compatible.

The second is the method of dripping bones, which refers to dripping the blood of a living person on the bones of a dead person to see if it penetrates. If it can penetrate, it means that there is a blood relationship.

Jia Zheng nodded with his eyes wide open, gradually having a suspicion in his mind.

"Jia Aiqing, do you know who this bone belongs to?" Zhao Qi asked again.

Jia Zheng's heart trembled slightly: "Your Majesty, could it be that Princess Wuyang?"

Zhao Qi shook his head: "No, but it's not far away. This bone belongs to Wuyang's biological father. If Jia Jue was really born of Wuyang, his blood should be able to seep into the bone."

Jia Zheng was silent, but his heart hung high again.

While the two were talking, the old eunuch poured Jia Jue's blood onto the bones.

However, no one noticed that in the process, some fine powder from the old eunuch's nails fell into Jia Jue's blood.

Blood mixed with powder dripped onto the white bones.

Everyone's eyes widened, staring at the bone.

Time passed slowly, and under the eyes of everyone, the blood slowly seeped into the bones.

The dripping bone method is done!

Jia Jue is related to the father of Princess Wuyang by blood!
hiss!
Jia Zheng took a deep breath, he just felt a basin of cold water poured from head to toe, making him feel cold all over.

He really wanted to defend Jia Jue, but he didn't dare to open his mouth. The method of recognizing relatives by dripping blood has always been regarded as the standard.

In the face of iron-like facts, his words will have no effect, and may even have the opposite effect of adding fuel to the fire.

Zhao Qi's face instantly became extremely gloomy.

He paced back and forth with a sullen face, complex lights flashing in his eyes.

The reason why he is very concerned about this matter is because the influence of the former dynasty has not completely dissipated, not only the people, but even the court has fans of the former dynasty.

Jia Jue is the young man he is very optimistic about. He is talented and capable, and the Jia family still has a shadow in the army, and the hidden power is not weak. Once he becomes the banner of the remnants of the previous dynasty, he will cause the whole world Vibration, even the danger of swords everywhere.

And a smile flashed across the old eunuch's eyes: Your Majesty, fortunately you are not disgraced.

Zhao Qi walked to the table, stood for a while, and suddenly patted the table:
"Come here, bring Jia Jue to see me!"

He was determined to give Jia Jue a chance to see what he would say about this matter.

But at this moment, a servant suddenly ran over in a panic:

"Your Majesty, something has happened! Uncle Renyi is poisoned and is in danger. Several guards suddenly rebelled, intending to attack and kill Uncle Renyi. Fortunately, the eldest princess arrived and killed those guards."

what!
Zhao Qi was furious.
