Chapter 4 — The Queen and the Village Father Hold the Wrong Child

General Nien carried the village woman in one hand. She was so scared that her teeth were chattering.
“Here, this is my child, I can do whatever I want!”
“Is this her child?” General Nien turned his head to look at me.
I shook my head and was about to speak when the Emperor standing next to me suddenly spoke.
"General Nien, don't worry. I've already confessed my blood, that ugly child is not mine."
Great General Nien did not even look at the Emperor, he only stared at me. He only believes the answer that comes out of my mouth. Behind me came the Emperor's cold eyes. I pursed my lips and carefully said:
"A small amount of blood does not necessarily mean it's right."
“Understood!” General Nien snatched the small bowl of blood from earlier and brought it to the physician's mouth.
“Take a sip.”
The royal physician was concentrating on detoxifying, thinking the general had finally learned to care for others, he unconsciously took a sip, but in the next second:
“Phew—”
That sip of water turned into mist and sprayed evenly on everyone's face.
“General, why do you want to harm me?”
“There is alum added to this water, it will harm that person!”

As soon as the royal doctor finished speaking, the whole temple fell into silence. A long while later, General Nien was the first to speak:
“There is alum in the water, what is the use?”
The royal physician was frantically rinsing his mouth and did not raise his head when he heard that:
"In addition to being poisonous, alum also has a barrier effect."
“If when pouring blood to recognize the body, if alum is added to the water, even two drops of blood from the same person will not mix.”
“Hateful!” With a "choang" sound, General Nien slammed the bowl on the ground, and the precious jade dish immediately broke into four or five pieces.
"Who did this move!? Who wants to harm my little niece?"
His sharp eyes swept over each person in the temple. Finally it fell on the Crown Prince. If the princess is born, not only does she have the love of the Emperor and Queen, but also has the support of the Nien family, as long as she wants, this position of monarch will no longer have anything to do with the Crown Prince.
"Father Emperor Minh Giam! I absolutely have no duplicity!" The Crown Prince made a "thud" sound and knelt to the ground, each word resounding.
"It has nothing to do with the Crown Prince! This servant saw with his own eyes the Crown Prince collecting rainwater under the porch!" Bich Kieu also knelt down to explain.
“Father, I know!” The prince seemed to suddenly think of something, raised his head, his eyes shining:
"Is it because the rainwater is so dirty that it contains some impurities? If so, it is truly my fault."
He bowed his head, his voice so sincere that people couldn't bear to blame him:
"But the situation in the deserted temple is simple, I can only find rain water."
"Fart! Is this kettle boiling urine?" General Nien kicked the kettle next to him.
“Stop it!” The Emperor waved his hand.
"It was the Crown Prince's momentary negligence. General Nien, don't get angry, check again."
“Prince, go find the bowl.”
"No need! I'll do it myself!" General Nien pulled out his marching water bottle and split it in half with one palm.
“I'm bothering Your Majesty.” He smiled to please, carried half a jar of water in front of the Emperor.
He couldn't bear to let his sister take the blood, so let the Emperor's sister-in-law do it! The Emperor's face twitched, and another drop of blood dripped. This time no one shouted "take care of the dragon's body", more than a dozen pairs of eyes were glued to the broken vase. Everyone held their breath to witness this moment. The royal doctor used a needle to gently prick the little princess's toe, a drop of blood dripped into the water. That drop of blood swayed and sank, the moment it touched the dragon's blood, it seemed to have a suction. Two drops of blood slowly mixed together, turning into a uniform light red patch.
"It's my child! My child!" The queen covered her mouth, tears immediately falling.

"Wait! There's still another baby." The emperor picked up the village woman's child and walked over: "Let's check together, avoiding a long night with many dreams."
General Nien looked at the chubby white child and couldn't help but smack his lips. This one is indeed more beautiful... But the result is out, our niece is indeed a bit ugly, but it's okay, with you here, who dares to say a word to my little niece? Before the refusal could be uttered, the Emperor personally punctured the child's hand. That drop of blood slowly sank, next to the dragon's blood hesitated for a brief moment, then mixed in! The deserted temple was as quiet as death. The Crown Prince took a breath of cold air: "What is this... both?!" The royal doctor was also stunned, even took the initiative to pick up the bowl and take a sip: "This... there's really nothing else inside..." My head was pounding. Suddenly, a weak voice rang out: 【Human blood soaked in water for a long time will dissolve... it has nothing to do with body or not body...】 It's a little princess! She has woken up!
“This dripping of blood cannot be considered evidence!”
