Chapter 587: Chapter 587: Identity 7 Chapter 587: Chapter 587: Identity 7 Several people quickly entered the palace and, inside the Imperial Study, met with King Mu Yi.

After everyone had paid their respects to King Mu Yi, Prime Minister Luo was the first to speak, “Your Majesty, we encountered a woman today who claims that the current legitimate princess is an imposter and that she herself is the true princess. We are unable to discern the truth, thus we are unable to make a decision. Therefore, we have brought her before you, hoping you could make the judgment.”

Mu Yi was taken aback by such news, having clearly never anticipated such an affair.

This so-called legitimate princess, his own daughter, was in fact someone he did not favor.

Had he favored her, he would not have let her live in the temple for sixteen years.

This time, he brought her back solely because the new Crown Prince in Wangji required that all Vassal States send a hostage to Wangji.

He had only one son, fourteen years old, whom he deeply loved and would never allow to be sent to Wangji as a hostage.

Therefore, the only option was to bring back his daughter to replace his son as the hostage in Wangji.

In fact, after his daughter’s return, he had only seen her once and had not even looked at her carefully, so he had no idea whether she was the real deal or not.

“Which one is the imposter? Which one is the real one?” Mu Yi asked, looking at Mu Lingyun and Su Mingzhu.

Seeing the question posed, Prime Minister Luo hurriedly pointed at Su Mingzhu and said, “This one is the legitimate princess brought back by General Ouyang, whom Your Majesty has met before!”

He paused, then continued, pointing at Mu Lingyun, “This one claims that the legitimate princess here is an imposter and that she herself is the real princess.”

Hearing this, Mu Yi furrowed his brows as he gazed upon the two identical looking women.

“Father! Do not be swayed by slander, I am your daughter!” Su Mingzhu spoke up.

As she spoke, her large dewy eyes looked at Mu Yi with a frail and pitiable appearance,

as if she had been unjustly accused.

Mu Yi, seeing Su Mingzhu in such a state, somehow felt uneasy. Then, he turned his gaze toward Mu Lingyun.

Mu Lingyun simply stood there, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, carrying a hint of mockery.

Her look at Mu Yi was devoid of much emotion.

More than anything, it was indifferent and scornful.

From her experiences in that past life, she knew Mu Yi was no good.

The reason her birth mother was cast into the Cold Palace and gave birth to her there was precisely because Mu Yi used her mother to secure the throne, then began to plot against her to make way for the woman he loved.

The death of her birth mother was, in truth, orchestrated by Mu Yi himself.

Mu Yi, meeting Mu Lingyun’s gaze, felt a secret shock, his eyelids twitching uncontrollably.

Her expression, her demeanor, they were so similar to those of the late Queen, who knew his secrets!

Indeed, he did not need to discern any further to know which one was his daughter.

However, this daughter evidently knew something, which was why her gaze toward him was so cold.

Cold enough to make him shudder.

“Has Your Majesty made a decision? Do we need to summon people from the temple for identification?” Prime Minister Luo asked, looking at Mu Yi.

At this moment, Su Mingzhu spoke up again, “Father, I am your daughter, you must believe me!”

Mu Yi listened, looking at Su Mingzhu with a feigned affectionate demeanor, and smilingly said, “Silly child, you are my only daughter, of course I believe you.”
