The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince! - Chapter 859
Chapter 859: Chapter 857: Who’s Real and Who’s Fake?
Qin Rulie took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully, nodding, “Yes, this blue scale jade, it is said to be formed many years ago from the fusion of a merfolk’s scales and tears, hence it glows with a phosphorescent blue light. There is only this one in the world; no one can imitate it. This jade pendant must indeed be genuine!”
Qin Muyan took the jade pendant and looked at it, although he had not seen it before, he had heard of it.
It was a gift from his imperial grandfather to the imperial grandmother, who then put it on his little aunt when she was born.
Such a precious object, his little aunt certainly would not be parted from it, even if she were to disappear, she would be wearing it.
Unless it was lost…
Qin Muyan’s knife rested on Mu Fei’s neck, “Speak, where did you get this? And where is the other half of the jade pendant?”
“The other half of the jade pendant is here.”
Shen Yu took out the other half of the jade pendant from her bosom as if it were a treasured possession, though it was just given to her by Mu Fei, she treated it as a priceless treasure.
As Qjn Muyan reached out to take it, she protected it as if it were her own life, “This is the only thing my mother left me. Your Highness, if you wish to take it away, then take my life along with it.”
“Enough nonsense! Hand it over to Your Highness to see!”
The others might have felt pity for her, but Qjn Muyan did not.
He made a move to snatch it away.
“Wait!”
The Empress Dowager’s mind cleared somewhat, and her attitude toward Shen Yu softened a bit, “Bring that jade pendant to me and let the emperor and I take a look. If it really matches, then your identity is still… yet to be determined.”
Her heart ached faintly as she spoke.
From the first moment she saw Su Yingxue, she was convinced she was her own granddaughter.
But she could not disbelieve the evidence.
At this time, Su Yingxue could not say much more.
She stood beside Chu Yihan, and he clasped her fingers tightly, giving her confidence, “No one can replace you.”
Su Yingxue smiled faintly, “Yes, my husband.”
Her calm and serene smile, when caught in Qin Muyan’s eyes, made his gaze even more fervent and obsessed.
Su Yingxue was so captivating.
No matter if she was his cousin or not.
Shen Yu knelt and crawled towards the Empress Dowager, personally handing over the jade pendant with a careful reverence in her eyes, “I’ve had this jade pendant on me since I was young, and I think it must be something my mother left me, so I’ve never dared to part with it.”
She began to cry.
Such filial piety was hard not to move people.
The Empress Dowager put the two halves of the jade pendant together and found that it was indeed a whole piece, and it was the one she gave to Zheng Er.
She felt a sudden pain in her heart, “This is what I gave to Zheng Er.”
With a hopeful look, she then turned toward Su Yingxue, “Yingxue, do you have any relics from Zheng Er, or anything she left behind? This jade pendant… could it have been lost by her?”
Su Yingxue pursed her lips, even though she did not know where Shen Yu’s jade pendant came from.
But she had to tell the Empress Dowager the truth, “My mother left me no relics, only medical books and letters, which I think are irrelevant to the Imperial family of the Great Wei Dynasty.”
Her real mother was Long Shuli, and this Wei Qin Zheng…
She had already died by the time her mother arrived.
She saw the disappointment in the Empress Dowager’s eyes, and her heart ached slightly.
“If that’s the case, who really is Zheng Er’s daughter?”
The Empress Dowager was unable to make up her mind for the moment.
Even Qin Rulie found it extremely tricky.
“Yingxue looks exactly like my little aunt, but this jade pendant was something my little aunt would never part with! If she’s not her biological daughter, how could my little aunt have left the jade pendant with her?” Qin Rulie paced back and forth in the hall.
