C527: Drop Blood to recognize Relatives
Even though Fe Mama and Fei Nanyu had agreed on the terms beforehand, Fe Mama still hesitated.
Fei Nanyu sensed her hesitation and reminded her, "Actually, there's no need for witnesses to acknowledge kinship. Since ancient times, there has been the tradition of verifying kinship by mingling blood."
This was a reminder to Fe Mama that even if she didn't speak up, he could still reclaim his identity as a prince that very day.
Upon hearing his words, Fe Mama's hesitation vanished instantly. As long as there was a glimmer of hope to save her own nephew's life, she didn't want to let it slip away.
Fe Mama knelt before Emperor Shunwu and Concubine Yuan once more.
"This old servant is guilty. Back then, I was possessed by evil spirits and deluded. I took the newborn prince back home and swapped him with my own newborn nephew.
The current Prince Qi is actually my good-for-nothing nephew."
As she spoke, she glanced at Fei Nanyu with a hint of guilt.
"The man before you, who has suffered greatly in the Fei Family for many years, is actually the flesh and blood of Your Majesty and Your Highness..."
Fe Mama tearfully recounted the entire process of how she had swapped the two infants back then.
During this, Emperor Shunwu intentionally raised a few more doubts, and Fe Mama answered them clearly without any concealment.
Because she did not lie, there were no inconsistencies in her responses to Emperor Shunwu.
At this point, Emperor Shunwu basically believed that Fei Nanyu was indeed the Third Prince.
Especially Fei Nanyu's striking resemblance to Concubine Yuan made it impossible to disbelieve.
After all, with the imperial bloodline, even if Emperor Shunwu was incompetent, he had no reason to confuse the matter.
"If that's the case, let's proceed with verifying our kinship by mingling blood."
In He Zhiran's understanding, verifying kinship by mingling blood had no scientific basis whatsoever.
Not to mention Fei Nanyu and Emperor Shunwu being father and son, even if they weren't related, their blood still had over a 90% chance of blending together.
Therefore, she wasn't worried at all about any issues arising when Fei Nanyu and Emperor Shunwu mingled their blood to verify kinship.
Fei Nanyu wasn't worried about this either, since he was truly Emperor Shunwu's biological son.
The observant Granny Wang had already brought a bowl of clean water when Emperor Shunwu finished speaking, as it wouldn't be appropriate for Mo Jiuye to take out a dagger or the like in front of the Emperor.
Fei Nanyu did the same, biting his finger and letting a few drops of fresh blood fall into the bowl in front of Emperor Shunwu.
Emperor Shunwu did the same.
Under everyone's watchful gaze, the two drops of fresh blood quickly blended together.
At this moment, Emperor Shunwu was both excited and enraged.
He was excited because his biological son had appeared when he was in dire straits, which could be Heaven's opportunity for him to turn the tables.
He was enraged because Concubine Yuan had actually gone behind his back and done such a thing back then, causing him, the ruler of a nation, to raise a servant's child for over twenty years in vain...
