Chapter 147 The truth comes to light
When Ye Xinrou heard what Yun Muheng said, she felt a surge of blood rushing to her head. She was so angry that her chest was churning. She just opened her mouth to argue, but a mouthful of blood spurted out.
The bright red blood drew a shocking arc in the air and splashed onto the ground like a blooming blood-red flower.
She covered her chest with her hands, her face was as pale as paper, but her eyes were burning with raging anger, endless resentment and unwillingness.
She raised her head tremblingly, stretched out her other hand with difficulty to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and said through gritted teeth: "Brother Heng, how can you be so confused!
You were actually deceived and blinded by that shameless bitch Ye Chuxue! I am the real princess, not a fake! You must not believe her nonsense! "
At this moment, Ye Chuxue, who was standing aside, snorted disdainfully: "Humph! At this point, are you still quibbling here?
If you have the guts, go ask your mother and father to find out whose child you are!"
After saying that, she glanced at Ye Xinrou coldly, her eyes full of contempt and ridicule.
Then, Ye Chuxue turned her head and looked at the Prime Minister expressionlessly, and said in a cold and firm tone: "Prime Minister, since you have doubts about Ouyang Zhi's identity and believe that he is impersonating the Crown Prince of Dong Liao,
Then you must also remember that many years ago, Prince Yunqing personally went to the Kingdom of Eastern Liao and had the honor of meeting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
In my opinion, it would be better to send someone to invite Prince Yunqing here now. As soon as he shows up, everything will naturally come to light and the truth will be revealed to the world."
The Prime Minister slowly raised his eyes, and his gaze fell on Ouyang Zhi.
Ouyang Zhi was standing there calmly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, as if everything in this world was under his control.
The Prime Minister was suddenly shocked, his face turned pale in an instant, and a thin layer of sweat unconsciously appeared on his forehead.
He pondered to himself, "Could this person really be the Crown Prince? Otherwise, why didn't he show any sign of panic when Ye Chuxue suggested that Prince Yunqing come?"
Thinking back to what had happened before, the Prime Minister became more and more frightened.
Especially when Ye Chuxue announced in front of everyone that she was the person they had been looking for, Ouyang Zhi remained calm and composed, without any sign of surprise, as if everything was within his expectations.
Now, after careful consideration, the Prime Minister finally realized that Ouyang Zhi had already known the truth of the matter! The reason he asked General Ma to come was simply to confirm it again.
Thinking of this, the prime minister couldn't help but feel regretful and secretly cursed himself for being so stupid.
He had originally hoped to conceal the truth and even considered killing Ouyang Zhi. Such a bold and reckless act was simply a crime worthy of death!
At this moment, the Prime Minister hurriedly warned himself that he must not continue to be stubborn and make mistakes again and again.
If the situation is allowed to continue like this, once things get out of hand, even if a great immortal were to descend, it would be difficult to save him from the dire straits.
Thinking of this, the Prime Minister's originally majestic face instantly changed into an extremely flattering smile towards Ouyang Zhi, just like the face-changing performance in Sichuan Opera.
He smiled widely and said, "Oh, Your Highness, it's all my fault for being so confused! I just saw my little daughter Rou'er being wronged, and I was so angry that I accidentally misunderstood you!"
Come to think of it, who in this world would be so bold as to pretend to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
Furthermore, this was said by General Ma himself, so it's a done deal! So, please, Your Highness, please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me!
Ouyang Zhi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, sketching out a cold and ironic smile, and responded nonchalantly: "Haha, this prince cannot bear such an apology from you, Prime Minister.
However, the Prime Minister should quickly invite Prince Yunqing.
Otherwise, some things might be difficult to explain clearly.
You must know that this place is the Yunxi Kingdom, and this Yunxi Kingdom is the world that belongs to you, Prime Minister, right?
If you really wanted to take my life, it would be as easy as pie for you, Prime Minister, right?"
Although he said this lightly, the strong sarcasm contained in it was obvious.
At this moment, Yun Muheng, who had been sitting silently at the side, suddenly stood up, his eyes as sharp as an eagle staring straight at the Prime Minister.
It was as if he could see through the Prime Minister's skin and directly into his soul. He angrily shouted, "What a Prime Minister! How dare you be so audacious!"
The prime minister was so frightened that his whole body trembled, his legs went soft, and he fell straight to his knees on the ground with a thump.
Then, he kowtowed like crazy and begged for mercy in a panic, "Prince Yunxin, please spare my life! Your Highness, please spare my life! It's all because of my blindness and greed that I jumped to conclusions without first investigating the situation.
This old man truly deserves death, and I will not refuse it! I beg Your Highnesses to show mercy and spare me this time!"
His brain was working rapidly. The situation was extremely critical at the moment. If he couldn't come up with a foolproof plan, he would probably be doomed.
After much thought, he felt that the only viable solution at the moment was to insist that Rou'er was the princess. As long as Rou'er was willing to plead for him, there might still be a glimmer of hope.
Otherwise, if he is charged with the crime of deceiving the emperor, there will be no way to save him and no one can save him from the dire straits.
The Prime Minister paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and then continued, "However, Your Highness, please believe that what I say is true.
The child General Ma personally entrusted to my care was indeed Rou'er, not Ye Chuxue. As for Xue'er, she is my own flesh and blood.
Regarding this matter, I implore His Royal Highness to be discerning. Even if I had the courage of heaven, I would never dare to conceal or deceive anyone!"
Ouyang Zhi let out a sneer filled with sarcasm, and asked coldly, "Huh, is that so? According to what you said, is it possible that I remembered it wrong? Or does it mean that my sister doesn't have any birthmark at all?"
