216. Chapter 216 Identity dispute
The ministers below were talking among themselves.
"As people grow up over the years, birthmarks may change. It is not impossible to fake a birthmark." Someone said, of course supporting Wang An.
"The birthmark is a certificate, and there are many other certificates, such as what happened in the palace before. Let's see if she remembers it. If it is really a fake, it is impossible to completely copy another person." Someone else said.
"Okay, let's stop arguing now." King An suddenly spoke.
The hall fell silent for a moment.
"Xuedie, just based on a birthmark, I can't identify you as Princess Zhaoyang. With this birthmark, what other evidence do you have to prove your identity?" King An asked again.
After hearing this, Xuedie immediately took off a jade pendant from her chest and put it in her hand, "Hui An Wang, my mother put this jade pendant on me when I was one year old. I have never taken it off before. I remember before.
Mom said that this jade pendant is extremely rare. There are two pieces in total. Mom keeps one piece with her and gave the other to me. You can take a look. "
King An immediately motioned to the eunuch on the side to get it. The eunuch took it and offered it to King An.
He picked it up and looked at it carefully. The more he looked, the more frightened he became, but he didn't show it on the surface. In fact, he didn't need to pick it up. He just saw it and knew it was unique. He was too familiar with it.
The queen and all the ministers did not speak, waiting for King An to speak.
For a long time, Wang An held the jade pendant in his hand. "This jade pendant is indeed Zhaoyang's." But suddenly the conversation changed, "But Zhaoyang has been missing for so long, how do you know if this jade pendant belongs to someone else? Or, she is in danger.
Was it snatched away? Therefore, this is not enough to prove your identity."
Xuedie was not surprised at all. She had known that he would say this for a long time. It would be strange if he admitted it so readily.
"Neither the seal nor the jade pendant can completely prove my identity, so what should I do to prove my identity?" Xuedie asked.
"Your Majesty, I know a way." A minister suddenly came out.
"What can be done?" King An asked.
"I know an ancient formula to identify relatives by shedding blood. If her blood is fused with the king's, it will prove that she is Princess Zhaoyang." The minister suggested.
"A blood confession?" King An was confused.
"King, this is a way." The queen said. In fact, she had arranged it a long time ago, and the blood would definitely not be able to fuse.
"King, you must not do it. This method is not trustworthy." Prime Minister Wang immediately objected.
"Prime Minister Wang, do you use this method?" the queen said.
"I have never used it before." Prime Minister Wang shook his head.
"Since she has never used it, how do you know that she is not trustworthy? It is difficult to prove her identity now. If there is a mistake and someone with good intentions takes the opportunity to break in, Anguo's century-old foundation will be destroyed. Prime Minister Wang does not want to be a slave to the subjugation of the country.
"Okay." The queen's words were fierce.
"Of course I don't want to. I also want to find out her identity, and I also know that the royal bloodline cannot be tarnished. However, this method is not trustworthy. If something goes wrong, wouldn't it really turn out to be a fake?" Prime Minister Wang arrived again.
"How can Prime Minister Wang be so sure that it's really a fake?" The queen's tone was a bit cold. This old guy originally thought he had surrendered over the years, but he still had second thoughts.
