The empress raised her hand to wipe her tears and said, “Your Majesty, I really don’t want to experience the murdering process. 1 won’t participate in it. I can’t accept that kind of viciousness.”
As soon as the empress spoke, several voices echoed, “I don’t want to participate either. I don’t want to know how a murderer feels.’1
“Me too..?’
Marquis Su was angry. He did not expect the empress to interfere.
As the empress, she didn’t have the magnanimity and righteousness she should have.
Xia Bingguang glanced at the empress and said calmly, “You are a woman, so it’s normal that you can’t accept it. However, as the emperor of a country, I can’t tolerate injustice happening in my territory. Let me experience it myself. My words are always trustworthy.”
in the past few days, Xian Fei had said a lot to him. Xia Bingguang believed her. Now that there was an opportunity to see the truth for himself, he naturally could not miss it.
Since the emperor had said so, the officials immediately sided with him. “I’m also willing to accompany Your Majesty. No matter what kind of terrifying experience it is, we have to find the truth and not let go of the criminal and do wrong to the innocent.”
Marquis Su said firmly, “That’s right. Perhaps it will be very painful to sense Miss Liu’s memory today, but we can’t convict her without even giving her a chance to prove her innocence.”
Xu Ran looked at the empress and frowned.
Xia Qiluo looked at Liu Sanniang coldly and said, “Then Miss Liu, please extend your hand.”
Since Liu Sanniang asked for it, she would not mind.
Xia Qiluo grabbed Liu Sanniang’s hand and released her majestic power. Xia Qiluo’s power was like countless steel needles stabbed into Liu Sanniang’s consciousness.
As long as Liu Sanniang resisted, an intense fight would break out.
Xia Qiluo was already prepared. If Liu Sanniang resisted, it meant that she was guilty. However, her power entered Liu Sanniang’s consciousness unrestrained.
Liu Sanniang’s memories from the past two months were presented in front of Xia Qiluo.
When people saw Xian Fei appear in Liu Sanniang’s memory, they were all stunned. Why was this different from what they had imagined?
Xia Qiluo was also stunned. Why did she see Xian Fei? Could it be that Liu Sanniang was instructed by Xian Fei to commit murder?
Everyone heard Xian Fei say to Liu Sanniang in a sobbing voice, “Miss Liu, please save my son.”
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “Isn’t the Third Prince fine?”
Xian Fei shook her head. “No, he’s not. The current Third Prince is a fake. He’s not my son at all. Even if he’s exactly the same as my son, I just know that he’s not my son.”
Liu Sanniang frowned slightly. “Your Highness, how can you tell that he’s not?”
Xian Fei choked and said, “Miss Liu, I want to tell you a secret. After knowing this secret, you’ll know why I can tell he’s not my son, why I want my son to fight for the throne, and why my son likes to recruit psychics. Because from a young age, he knew that there was a tough battle to be fought.”
Xian Fei revealed a secret that shocked the officials and the commoners.
Then, they saw that after knowing this secret, Liu Sanniang was entrusted by Xian Fei to find the Third Prince who escaped after being swapped. She left the capital and went north.
In the end, she stopped at a city and found the Third Prince. The real Third Prince no longer had his original appearance. When he returned to the capital, he was brought to the prison.
This memory shocked everyone. The murderer in the capital was not Liu Sanniang.
This was because Liu Sanniang was not in the capital at all.
Xia Qiluo slowly lowered her hand. She looked at Liu Sanniang and did not believe what she had sensed at all. How could it not be her?
Xia Qiluo found it hard to accept. She felt like something in her heart was about to collapse.
“Demon, are you trying to twist the truth? How dare you slander the empress!”
Xu Ran shouted.
Xia Qiluo looked at Liu Sanniang fiercely. “I underestimated your ability. You can even fake this. Are you trying to hide the truth of your murder? I won’t fall for it.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Xia Qiluo with a cold expression. “Why are you so sure that I’m the murderer? 1 can fake it, but can’t you? Is only what you say the truth?”
Liu Sanniang’s cold mockery made Xia Qiluo almost go crazy. Her eyes were red as she said coldly, “The evidence of your murder is conclusive! What Xian Fei entrusted you with is clearly fake. She unfortunately died in a fire and can’t testify for you.”
Xia Qiluo looked at Chu Yan coldly. ”Chu Yan is your dog. Of course he’ll help you do evil.”
Liu Sanniang sneered.
Xia Qiluo was greatly irritated. She only wanted to kill Liu Sanniang immediately to vent her anger.
When Xia Hongming heard that his mother died in a fire, he broke down. His legs went weak and he got on the ground, crying, “Mother, I’m back. Mother…”
Tears streamed down his face, and he looked like he was in great pain. “Father, i’m your son. 1 didn’t come back in time and gave the evil doer a chance to harm my mother,”
Xia Bingguang looked at the unfamiliar Xia Hongming. This was a completely different face, but his cries made people’s hearts tighten.
Before Xia Bingguang could speak, Xian Fei, who was pretending to be a eunuch, took off the eunuch hat on her head. Her long hair fell over her shoulders. She quickly went down to help Xia Hongming up. She asked, “Hongming, do you want to eat roasted duck today?”
Xia Hongming was surprised and delighted as he replied, “I do. I also want sour and spicy fish, braised pigeon, and a roasted lamb log.”
Xian Fei smiled and said to Xia Bingguang with happy tears rolling down her cheeks, “Your Majesty, he’s the real Hongming. He can answer the secret question correctly..’’
