CHAPTER 93: CHAPTER 93: THE FACE-SLAPPING TIME-TRAVELING FARMING GIRL 30
Since it is a Royal Secret Method, naturally, it cannot be performed in front of everyone.
Following Prince Kang Le, an old man dressed as a eunuch stepped forward, his face beaming with a smile: "Mr. Qi, please find a place so that I can get this task out of the way as soon as possible."
Qi Rui led a group of people to a small flower hall in the Qi Mansion.
The small flower hall wasn’t large, but there was a small room on the left side, which was very suitable for the kinship testing.
Qi Rui invited Prince Kang Le to sit down, but Prince Kang Le waved his hand: "No need, let’s start now, Eunuch Bai."
Eunuch Bai nodded and ordered the people he brought to draw blood.
As the blood was drawn, Prince Kang Le suddenly said: "Mr. Qi, why don’t you and the Second Young Master of your family also take the test?"
This caught Qi Rui off guard: "Your Highness, what do you mean by this?"
Prince Kang Le explained with a smile: "No other meaning, it’s just that your Second Young Master was also born in the outskirts, and I, the Prince, would feel more at ease after testing just in case there was a child swap."
Since Prince Kang Le had put it that way, Qi Rui no longer declined. He called Qi Wenshao over to have his blood tested alongside Prince Kang Le.
Prince Kang Le gave a knowing look to Eunuch Bai, who understood the signal.
Very soon, the blood of Prince Kang Le, Zhao Sanya, Qi Rui, and Qi Wenshao had been drawn, and Eunuch Bai took the samples to the small room.
"Please sit, Your Highness."
Qi Rui thought that the main purpose was for Prince Kang Le and Zhao Sanya to undergo the test, so he wasn’t particularly concerned; his mind wasn’t in a state of disarray, and he even had the leisure to jest with Prince Kang Le.
How could Prince Kang Le sit still?
This blood test held such grave significance.
Whether the Prince Kangle Mansion had a future heir rested on this very result.
If what Anning said was true, then it meant... He would have a son, and not just any son, but an exceptionally outstanding one.
For Prince Kang Le, this was an event even more thrilling than ascending to the throne.
Though he also loved his daughter, he valued a son even more; having a son meant someone to inherit the Prince Mansion, ensuring his noble titles would be passed down and his lineage wouldn’t end.
With these thoughts, Prince Kang Le grew increasingly fond of Qi Wenshao, feeling that everything about the boy was pleasing, much more so than Zhao Sanya was.
Perhaps it was psychological, but Prince Kang Le actually thought Qi Wenshao quite resembled the Princess, and his nose seemed similar to his own as well.
On the other hand, Zhao Sanya didn’t seem to resemble him in the slightest.
If Anning knew about Prince Kang Le’s thoughts, she would likely burst into laughter, mocking Zhao Sanya for getting what she deserved.
When Zhao Sanya first arrived, in order to make herself more attractive, she had used the Spiritual Spring and some medicines in her space to alter her appearance.
In fact, the original appearance of Zhao Sanya did resemble Prince Kang Le quite a bit, but after her alterations, she no longer resembled him at all.
While Prince Kang Le was filled with nervousness and Qi Wenshao’s palms were sweating, Eunuch Bai came out.
He carried four bowls filled with water, each with writing on it.
"How did it go?"
Upon seeing Eunuch Bai, Prince Kang Le immediately asked anxiously: "What’s the result?"
"This..."
Eunuch Bai’s face was fraught with difficulty.
"Come on, say it."
Zhao Sanya was also anxious, as she had a very bad premonition and couldn’t help but press Eunuch Bai to speak up.
Eunuch Bai then pointed to the four bowls and said, "Prince, the blood in this bowl is yours and Mrs. Zhao’s. Since the blood does not merge, it shows that you two have no kinship relation; you are not father and daughter."
"What, impossible..."
Zhao Sanya felt darkness before her eyes and nearly fell to the ground. She steadied herself with the table and glared at Eunuch Bai with a murderous look: "You’re talking nonsense, how could I not be..."
Eunuch Bai ignored Zhao Sanya and instead pointed to another bowl: "Prince, this bowl contains your blood and Second Young Master Qi’s blood. Take a look."
Prince Kang Le looked down and saw that the blood in the bowl had already merged into one, the blood red and unmistakable as a single entity, not at all distinguishable as once been separate.
"This... does this mean that Second Young Master Qi is indeed my son, the heir of the royal mansion?"
Eunuch Bai laughed: "Congratulations, Prince, you have a successor."
Qi Wenshao was also dumbfounded: "No, this... what does this mean?"
Prince Kang Le, laughing like a fool, quickly walked over and took hold of Qi Wenshao, not letting go: "My son, oh my child... you’ve suffered, but at last, your father... I have found you."
Qi Rui was also stunned.
He looked at Prince Kang Le and then at Qi Wenshao: "This cannot be possible, Mrs. Bai could not have betrayed me, I..."
Zhao Sanya took a deep breath and glared fiercely at Qi Wenshao, then with a piercing scream, pounced towards Qi Wenshao: "It’s you, you’re jealous of me, you must have colluded with someone to switch the blood, it must be you..."
Zhao Sanya reached out, her sharp nails scratching towards Qi Wenshao’s face.
Prince Kang Le, who had been relatively kind towards Zhao Sanya until now, suddenly turned cold and pushed her away: "Who is this madwoman, how dare she harm my son."
The expression on Eunuch Bai’s face was also not very pleasant.
With a grim face, he said in a sharp tone: "Mrs. Zhao, you best not talk nonsense. The blood test is a Royal Secret Method; it has never been wrong before, and besides, I am not the only one responsible for it. The steward of the Prince Mansion and Mama from the Qi Mansion were also watching. How could there be any cheating."
Indeed, to ensure impartiality in the blood testing, Prince Kang Le had Zhang Yan follow into the room earlier, and Anning had also instructed Mrs. Hao to go in.
In addition to these three individuals, there was also the Imperial Physician responsible for the blood test, and several guards. With so many people watching, it was impossible to cheat.
Inside, Zhao Sanya understood this but being cast down from the clouds so suddenly was an unbearable feeling, which made her lash out in madness.
Pushed away by Prince Kang Le and warned so harshly by Eunuch Bai, Zhao Sanya, though still feeling indignant, did not dare to make another scene.
She just murmured to herself blankly: "Who am I? I’m not the daughter of the Zhao Family, nor am I a Commandery Princess; who am I really?"
Eunuch Bai laughed, a smile with ill-intent: "I am about to reveal the answer soon enough."
He pointed to the third bowl of water: "Mr. Qi, this is the blood of you and the young master. Take a look."
Qi Rui pulled himself together and forced his spirits to look, only to see that the two drops of blood remained separate, knowing then that Qi Wenshao was not his son.
Eunuch Bai continued: "The blood in this fourth bowl is Mr. Qi and Mrs. Zhao’s. Oddly enough the two drops of blood merged, which means, Mrs. Zhao is indeed Mr. Qi’s biological daughter."
As the last words were spoken, Zhao Sanya blacked out and fainted.
Qi Rui also felt stars in front of his eyes and nearly fainted as well.
He might hold on, but Qi Wenwei could not.
Qi Wenwei shot up, his face expressing immense complexity: "Impossible, this is impossible... Rong’er, she, how could she be my sister?"
He reached out to grab the fourth bowl of water, but several guards held him back: "What are you doing? Trying to destroy the evidence?"
Qi Wenwei took two steps back, intently staring at the blood in the bowl.
The two drops of blood had long since merged and could not be separated again.
He collapsed to the ground, his gaze vacant, muttering incessantly: "She’s not my sister, Rong’er is not... I would rather she be my enemy than be my sister... how could I possibly have an incestuous relationship with my sister, this is impossible..."
Prince Kang Le did not care about the Qi Family’s reactions nor their thoughts.
Right now, he was ecstatic to the point of madness, clutching Qi Wenshao’s hand and refusing to let go: "My son, come back with me to the mansion quickly. From now on, everything in the mansion is yours. We will no longer be the bastards of the Qi Family. In the future, whatever you want, your father will order someone to find it for you. If they cannot find it, you can ask it from your Imperial Uncle."
