Chapter 755 Su Luo’s Death 4
Su Luo, since you are not my, Su Zian's, biological daughter, then you should no longer enjoy the glory of the Su Manor!
Early the next morning, Su Zian went to the morning court session.
That morning, Emperor Jing's mood was quite complex.
Because Nangong Liuyun had repeatedly warned him, he knew better than anyone how important that annoying wretched girl's place was in his heart.
This also caused the betrothal gift for the Yaochi Li family to be delayed again and again.
But now, that annoying wretched girl was actually dead… just died so quietly…
Emperor Jing didn't know how to face Nangong Liuyun.
Therefore, upon seeing Su Zian, Emperor Jing still wanted to comfort him a little and bestow upon him a higher official position.
However, he had just opened his mouth: "Minister Su, since Su Luo is already dead, you…"
At this moment, Su Zian stepped forward to report: "Reporting to Your Majesty, this humble subject has a matter to present."
"Oh?" Emperor Jing waved his hand listlessly, "If you have a report, present it."
So, Su Zian had the eunuch present the memorial he had written overnight to Emperor Jing.
Emperor Jing picked it up and casually glanced over it, but in an instant, he frowned, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes: "What? Su Luo is actually not your, Su Zian's, biological daughter?!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire Golden Throne Hall was instantly in an uproar.
Recently, Su Luo's name had been very popular in the imperial capital, with people's opinions varying, but everyone knew that Su Luo was the Su Manor's little concubine daughter.
But now, after the news of Su Luo's death spread, Su Zian actually presented a memorial, saying that Su Luo was not his, Su Zian's, daughter?
For a moment, almost all the civil and military officials turned their gaze towards Su Zian.
Facing countless pairs of probing eyes, Su Zian took a step forward, lowered his head and eyes, but his voice was clear and resonant: "Replying to Your Majesty, Su Luo is not my, Su Zian's, biological daughter, this was all due to an accident back then."
So, Su Zian recounted how the wet nurse beside his concubine back then had swapped the infants and for what reason.
Finally, he held his head high and his chest out, saying grandly: "After that wet nurse left back then, she married Old Man Wang Qi, the steward from the Liu Manor, so on this matter, the Third Miss of the Liu Manor, Liu Ruohua, can also testify."
"Someone, summon Liu Ruohua." Emperor Jing frowned and said loudly.
If Su Luo wasn't Su Zian's daughter, then who could she be?
Who exactly swapped the children back then?
Liu Ruohua arrived very quickly, and under the gaze of countless eyes, she was initially a little uneasy.
But as soon as she thought of Su Luo, her heart was filled with hatred, and she said indignantly: "This subject can testify that the wet nurse did indeed mention this matter back then."
"Then do you know where that wet nurse and Old Man Wang Qi are now?"
Liu Ruohua's eyes drooped slightly, feeling a little uneasy in her heart, and she stammered, unable to speak.
Hearing this, Emperor Jing couldn't help but slightly furrow his brow.
If it was proven that Su Luo's origins were unclear, he would have something to say when Liuyun came out; otherwise, how would he face the second prince then?
So, he slapped the armrest of the dragon chair and said coldly: "Just speak your mind, I will be the one to decide everything."
Only then did Liu Ruohua raise her head and look at Emperor Jing with firm eyes: "Back then, in the small town outside the Sunset Mountain Range, this subject revealed this matter in front of His Highness Prince Jin, and later… later Old Man Wang Qi and the wet nurse disappeared."
As soon as Liu Ruohua said this, everyone was slightly stunned.
The meaning in her words was very clear: Old Man Wang Qi and Madam Yang's wet nurse had both been taken away by His Highness Prince Jin.
So… so His Highness Prince Jin knew from the start that Su Luo was not Su Zian's biological daughter…
