Small supermarket welcomes visitors from all directions

Chapter 74 Emperor Taihe’s Ambition
When Duke Lu came out of the portal, he was surprised that his father-in-law was also in his own courtyard.

You have to know that as a father, you cannot go into your daughter's yard after she reaches adulthood, let alone if her daughter is already married.

When Duke Lu saw his father-in-law, he understood what he should be thinking. He became a little anxious and wanted to know the answer as soon as possible.

Duke Lu and his wife welcomed Old Master Tang into the study room in the courtyard. After they sat down, Duke Lu spoke first: "Father-in-law, the results are out!"

Old Master Tang looked at Duke Lu and waited for him to continue.

Lady Lu was also anxious: "Hurry up and tell me!"

"First of all, the test results of my husband and I and Qi'er show that we are both Qi'er's biological parents. There is no such thing as the wrong baby being taken away." There is no cheating at all.

Lady of Duke Lu and Old Master Tang both breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were certain that it was their son before, the test report was like an insurance policy, and they no longer had any hesitation.

"The next step is to test my mother and me. We also have a normal parent-child relationship."

There is no suspense about this. If it were not the case, it would be a suspense. After all, Duke Lu is very similar to the late Duke Lu, and they look like a family at first glance.

They both nodded in approval.

"Finally, here are Xiaohua and his father-in-law and mother-in-law's test reports..."

Duke Lu paused for a moment.

"What's wrong?" asked Lady Lu.

"Is it really not?" asked Old Master Tang.

"Xiaohua has no parent-child relationship with his father-in-law and mother-in-law."

"How could it not be?" Lady Lu thought of her parents and brothers, who were so kind to her, and it turned out that they were not her biological children.

"How could this happen?" Old Master Tang thought a lot more. Xiaohua was the couple's daughter and their only daughter.

When she was born, all the sons had grown up, and the eldest was ready to get married. The couple raised her like a treasure, and when she grew up, she married a man of her dreams and had several children.

When the couple thought they would have no regrets even if they closed their eyes, the son-in-law told them that the daughter he had raised and pampered for decades was not his biological daughter.

Xiaohua is not his daughter, so where is his daughter? Is it really Concubine Liu? If not Concubine Liu, where is his biological daughter? Is she alive or dead?
In Concubine Liu's family, only Concubine Liu is the same age as Xiaohua, and I don't know if she is my daughter?

Besides, Concubine Liu doesn't look very similar to my family, does she? If we want to investigate Concubine Liu, we must go through His Majesty. If His Majesty doesn't want to, then the matter will be over.

"Father-in-law, are we still investigating this?" From my own interests, it would be best if this matter ended here. But it was obvious that this matter was not over yet.

"Can this matter be kept secret? As for whether to investigate or not, it depends on your majesty's opinion." Although it concerns his own daughter, this matter is related to Concubine Liu, so it is not a private matter between a few people.

"Then father-in-law, please accompany me to the palace!" He quickly got the job done.

The father-in-law and son-in-law entered the palace quickly. Emperor Taihe had no important business, so he let them in.

Emperor Taihe was very curious about the father-in-law and son-in-law coming to see him together. It was normal for Duke Lu to come. Court officials always had some things that were not easy to say in court. And it was unknown what the old man Tang came for at this time. After the two of them exchanged greetings, Emperor Taihe asked, "Old Master Tang, you and Duke Lu came together. Is there something important?"

"I no longer hold any official position, and I am not worthy of being addressed as sir by Your Majesty." Old Master Tang declined quickly.

"Stop saying that. You taught me before! Although I didn't have a formal title, you taught me. You have to admit it!"

Old Master Tang skipped the topic and said, "Your Majesty, this time the father-in-law and son-in-law came to the palace together because my son-in-law had something to report to Your Majesty."

Emperor Taihe laughed and said, "Duke Lu has something to report to me, but he doesn't dare to come by himself, so he wants to drag you, his father-in-law, along to give him courage, right?" Emperor Taihe was even joking.

"Yes! This is a big matter. I have to ask my father-in-law to give me courage." Duke Lu admitted it readily, but there was some truth to it.

"Then tell me what it is! Is it really, really big?" Tell me now! Stop talking nonsense.

"Your Majesty should know about our Qi'er's situation! Things have taken a turn for the better, and I am here to report it."

How could anyone not know about this? As a Beijinger, everyone with ears knows about it, and it has been spread with every detail.

Emperor Taihe was just joking. Was Lady Lu's brain sick? And how did she do it? She cheated on a southerner thousands of miles away during her wedding, who had only been to the capital a few times in her life.

If you want to spread rumors about her cheating, you should choose the people around her! Or the servants in the mansion will do! At least you can see her!

The more outrageous and false this story is, the more people spread it. Even Emperor Taihe asked Duke Lu a few days ago.

"I know. What's going on?" Since the minister has mentioned this, of course he has to ask with concern.

"Qier is our biological child, there will be no accidents." Duke Lu said firmly.

"What happened?" Something must have happened. Otherwise, when he asked a few days ago, Duke Lu's answer would not be so certain, and he was afraid of something unexpected.

"This is what happened..." Duke Lu told Emperor Taihe everything that had happened in the past two days. He emphasized the plane supermarket and DNA testing, and specifically stated that Concubine Liu might be the daughter of the Tang family. He came to the palace today to ask Emperor Taihe whether this matter was still being investigated.
After Duke Lu finished speaking, seeing that Emperor Taihe was in deep thought, the two did not disturb him.

The purpose of the father-in-law and son-in-law coming to the palace was to ask Emperor Taihe for his opinion. Should the matter be investigated further?

Emperor Taihe had always wanted to make Concubine Liu the empress, but he failed because her family was a merchant family with no connections in the court, and this matter was brought up every year.

This is an opportunity to see whether Emperor Taihe is willing to give Concubine Liu a powerful family. The father-in-law and son-in-law do not dare to act on their own. Aren't they here to ask for advice?

"Duke Lu, is this true? Can the test results be completely correct?" asked Emperor Taihe.

"The doctor there said that they can't say anything with 100% certainty. There are many things that can affect the test results, such as writing the wrong name, taking the wrong specimen, reading the wrong data, etc., but the test data itself will not be wrong." The technology is trustworthy.

"Then Your Majesty, are we still investigating this matter?" This was the purpose of the two of them entering the palace!
"Put this aside for now, there are more important things to do."

For Emperor Taihe, it didn't matter whose daughter Concubine Liu was. She was his concubine anyway, so what was there to be afraid of?
Now that Duke Lu has found such a good place, he must make use of it. How can just checking DNA be enough?

Of course, checking DNA is also important, and we should do it now.
