Chapter 118 Paternity test?
Liuli added fuel to the fire: "Ah, if you count it this way, the young prince's life was saved thanks to you. If I were the young prince, I would definitely try my best to thank the regent."
"Who should thank that old man!" Bei Yingchen was still struggling, "If I could choose my father, I would never have anything to do with that man!"
"That's why you cast an evil spell on Princess Yuerong in order to go against the Regent, causing her to not wake up yet." Yi Qianhuan looked at Bei Yingchen deeply.
Bei Yingchen was obviously stunned for a moment: "What do you mean? What happened to Yuerong?"
"Stop pretending to be stupid here. Princess Yuerong has been under a spell for several days, causing her to be cursed and unconscious. If the person who cast the spell is not caught, the princess will become the next princess."
"How could this happen!" Bei Yingchen struggled even harder, sweat pouring down his forehead. "Hurry up and untie me. I want to go see my sister!"
Seeing that Bei Yingchen's hands and feet had regained some strength, Yi Qianhuan quickly stepped forward and sealed several of Bei Yingchen's acupuncture points: "You'd better not move any more, otherwise the toxins will break through your meridians, and you will be a useless person in the future."
Bei Yingchen's face became even uglier.
Yi Qianhuan raised his hand and slapped him in the heart.
Bei Yingchen was caught off guard and spat out a mouthful of poisonous blood.
"You...!" Bei Yingchen had never been so frustrated before. He stood up suddenly and patted his arms and limbs. "My strength has recovered?"
"Of course. My young lady doesn't really want to target you. It's just because what you said just now was really unpleasant, so I'm giving you a little lesson." Liuli said.
"Do you know what's going on with my sister?" Bei Yingchen asked Yi Qianhuan.
"I know. However, I need to find the person who cast the curse before I can find a way to break it. So, is the young prince the one who cast the curse?"
"Of course I'm not! Yuerong is my biological sister. Normally, I get terribly worried when she frowns, let alone anything else!"
Yi Qianhuan would not believe what Bei Yingchen said just because he shouted loudly, so he still tested Bei Yingchen.
It turned out that it wasn't Bei Yingchen's doing.
"I've already told you it's not me, but you still don't believe me!" Bei Yingchen pressed on, "Have you really not found a single suspicious person up to now?"
"No. But if you have any doubts about a candidate, you can boldly raise them. Otherwise, if we continue to delay, Princess Yuerong's situation will only become more and more dangerous."
Bei Yingchen seemed to be much calmer. After thinking for a while, he said, "I know it may sound ridiculous, but I really suspect that all this was done by my mother."
Yi Qianhuan looked at Bei Yingchen with an indescribable look: "The princess has been in a coma for three months."
Liuli looked at Bei Yingchen with even more disgust: "Have you forgotten what my young lady just said? If you want to poison the princess, you need to do it for several consecutive days."
"I know! But what I said was true! I once saw my mother secretly practicing sword dance in the imperial garden at night. I called her but she didn't respond to me. She even said some weird things."
Bei Yingchen fell into painful memories and continued to say with embarrassment: "At that time, I felt that my mother was like a different person. I wanted to call someone, but I fainted. The next day I said that my mother went out in the middle of the night, but the maids all said no!"
Yi Qianhuan asked tentatively: "Could it be that this is just an illusion of yours?"
"Absolutely impossible! I am very sure that what I saw was real! At that time, my mother spoke and acted like a different person. After that, I often went to my mother's place alone to watch over her, but I never encountered a similar situation again."
"Then the Regent doesn't care either?" Liuli asked.
Bei Yingchen sneered, "Humph, if he was willing to listen to me, why would I run away from home in anger? I have always emphasized to him that what I said is true. In the end, he scolded me for not being able to tolerate his seriously ill mother...
That's my mother. No one wants her to recover more than I do. If I wasn't worried about other people in my family, how could I doubt my own mother? "
"So now you suspect that all this was done by the princess?" Yi Qianhuan also found it incredible.
"Yes! And I suspect that my mother might have been replaced by someone, and she is no longer my real mother. Otherwise, when my mother finally woke up that day, she wouldn't have acted so cold after seeing me."
When talking about what happened that night, Bei Yingchen's eyes showed a little more loss.
Yi Qianhuan looked at Bei Yingchen thoughtfully, wondering how credible his words were.
"Actually, if you want to verify whether the current princess is your biological mother, I have a way."
"Really?" Bei Yingchen looked at Yi Qianhuan excitedly and asked tentatively, "Could the method you mentioned be a blood test?"
"Of course not. I have a secret talisman here. It comes in two types: gold and silver. It needs to be burned and then diluted into talisman water for consumption. If the mother and child who consume the talisman water are biological mother and child, a mark similar to silver lightning will appear on their bodies."
"Similarly, mainly the father and son who drank the golden secret water at the same time, once they are biological father and son, golden lightning marks will appear on their bodies to prove their blood relationship."
"Is there really such a magical thing in this world?" Bei Yingchen's face was full of disbelief.
Yi Qianhuan didn't indulge Bei Yingchen either: "If the young prince doesn't believe me, I can go back to the palace and tell him directly that I have limited ability and can't manage the affairs of the Regent Palace."
Bei Yingchen was indeed scared at once: "Look at you, how can you not take a joke? I don't know which family you are from, why do you have such a bad temper!"
"I am Yi Qianhuan."
"So you are the wife of the famous Marquis of Pingyang!" Bei Yingchen became excited after hearing Yi Qianhuan's introduction. "I heard that the glider you researched can take people up to the sky and fly back and forth in the sky? Is this true?"
"Yes. As long as the little prince cooperates with me to solve the strange things in the palace as soon as possible, I can spare time to study the glider as soon as possible. Maybe I can invite the little prince to come over to play with it at that time."
Bei Yingchen was so happy that he said, "Okay. Then I'll go home with you now!"
