Chapter 494: Chapter 494 Blood Clan Queen (23)
“Your Highness, wasn’t it you who left behind the abdication edict?” Karlo said with a face that betrayed no abnormalities, his tone quite innocent. “You ordered to lead the Blood Clan. The edict is very clear, and your Blood Seal is on it.”
The Blood Seal is like a human’s seal.
But unlike a seal, which can leave different marks no matter who uses it.
The Blood Clan’s Blood Seal uses one’s own blood as ink, and can only be used by the Blood Clan mber themselves.
This is also an important reason why the Blood Clan was suspicious but unable to refute.
Chuzheng’s expression remained cold, “This matter, you’d better ask Xia Ci for clarity.”
Why did the original owner leave behind that Blood Seal?
It was because of Xia Ci.
Xia Ci wanted to go to the human world, which was normally not allowed, but sohow, with just a few words, Xia Ci had the original owner spinning around in circles.
Xia Ci is human, and she couldn’t just co and go freely.
So the original owner gave her a Blood Seal.
If the original owner had been a boy, then to him, Xia Ci would be his White Moonlight, the kind he would agree to anything she said.
Chuzheng couldn’t understand why the original owner liked Xia Ci so much.
She had no other feelings for Xia Ci; she just really liked her.
As if she were under so kind of spell.
Could it be that Xia Ci knows so kind of sorcery?!
Being good-looking really makes a difference, huh.
While Chuzheng’s mind was racing with thoughts, Xia Ci was already being held up by soone.
Xia Ci’s face was pale, and she weakly said, “Your Highness, I don’t understand, you only left behind the edict. I don’t know why. You told to follow Lord Karlo…”
Xia Ci and Karlo insisted in unison, claiming that it was Chuzheng herself who had left the edict, and they were rely acting according to the instructions.
“Your Highness, what on earth happened to you?”
In the end, Xia Ci still looked at her with a saddened face.
Chuzheng: “…”
So troubleso!
Can we just get rid of them?!
Why do I have to suffer here!
“If it wasn’t your Highness who left it, does Prince Karlo have such audacity to forge it?”
“The edict was quite strange to begin with, it’s not impossible that Prince Karlo forged it.”
“What about the Blood Seal then?”
“This…”
The Blood Clan mbers in the hall had their own opinions.
As for Karlo, he was surprisingly composed, showing no signs of panic.
Chuzheng felt that these two dogs might still have tricks up their sleeves.
Chuzheng released Yin Xian, which clung to the ground and rapidly extended outward.
“Your Highness, may I ask if the edict truly ca from you?” a mber of the Blood Clan boldly inquired.
Chuzheng, with a posture of aloofness, replied, “No.”
The Blood Clan mber then asked, “What about the Blood Seal?”
“Have any of you taken a close look at that Blood Seal?” Chuzheng questioned in return.
“This…”
They had not, in fact, inspected it closely.
They had only seen the edict but hadn’t touched it.
Chuzheng’s gaze was cold, and her eyes rested on thin air, not looking at anyone, “The Blood Seal does not necessarily have to be made after the edict is written; it’s possible that the Blood Seal was there first and the edict written afterwards.”
The original owner had only left Xia Ci with a single Blood Seal.
Because it was convenient at the ti, she had taken a piece of brocade used for writing.
She rembered the brocade wasn’t big.
The content of the edict was not short, and the Blood Seal took up a small half of the space, so the writing would surely have covered the Blood Seal.
“Where is the edict?” Chuzheng asked Xia Ci. “Bring it out for a look, and we will know.”
Xia Ci felt a tightness at the bottom of her heart.
Subconsciously, she glanced towards Karlo.
Karlo calmly said, “Your Highness, even if the Blood Seal ca before the content of the edict, it doesn’t prove anything.”
“Hmm, so bring it out,” Chuzheng nodded calmly.
Chuzheng’s indifferent attitude, in contrast, made Karlo feel uneasy at heart.
If she had pointed at him and said he was the murderer, he wouldn’t have felt so nervous.
“Prince Karlo, since Her Highness instructed you to produce it, just bring it out,” Bruno said. “Or are you afraid of exposing your own cris?”
Karlo’s face remained stern, “Prince Bruno, don’t speak recklessly. I am rely doing as Her Highness instructed. What cri are you referring to?”
Chuzheng snapped, “Whether you have one or not, you know best. Stop the nonsense and bring it out.”
Babbling on and on without end.
Who wants to listen to your babbling!
Karlo: “…”
Blood Clan: “…”
It seems that Her Highness… has beco a bit fierce?
–
The secret decree was handed over by Karlo, and Chuzheng unfolded it to take a look…
What is this dog’s scribble?
Was the original owner part of the wild cursive script school?
The secret decree wasn’t written by the original owner, but the other party definitely imitated the original owner’s handwriting.
It’s completely illegible!
What the heck is this written?!
Chuzheng took a slight breath in, her face expressionless as she scanned from beginning to end, then calmly passed it to the person beside her.
Bruno intended to receive it, but Su Ji beat him to it.
Like a sycophant, he took the secret decree.
Bruno: “…” This scourge!
Su Ji unfolded the secret decree and glanced at it, his expression a bit strange. After a mont, he handed it over to his own father.
Bruno snorted coldly and opened the secret decree to look at it.
Bruno was quite ticulous, primarily inspecting the Blood Seal.
After a short while, Bruno asked with confidence, “Prince Karlo, this handwriting has covered the Blood Seal. How do you explain that?”
Karlo explained, “Her Highness’s Blood Seal was placed first…”
“I don’t have such a habit,” Chuzheng said with an indifferent face. “With so much content in the secret decree, why would I choose such a large size of silk to write on? I don’t have a habit of self-torture.”
“…”
Karlo stiffened for a mont.
“You say I forged the secret decree, then how did I obtain the Blood Seal?” Karlo said angrily. “Your Highness, I do not know why you would say this, but I will not take the bla for this unfounded accusation.”
“Xia Ci, where is the Blood Seal I gave you?”
“Your Highness, when have you ever given a Blood Seal?” Xia Ci was extrely innocent, and with his pale face, it rather seed like Chuzheng was making an unreasonable fuss.
Chuzheng really wanted to give them a round of applause.
“You probably don’t know…” Chuzheng paused, making Xia Ci’s heart leap: “I have a record of every Blood Seal I leave.”
Xia Ci’s pupils shrank slightly.
He had been by her side for so many years, seen her use the Blood Seal countless tis; where was there any record?
“Your Highness, why didn’t I know about this?” Xia Ci clenched his fists.
“If you knew, then you would be the Blood Clan Queen,” Chuzheng said with a poised and tranquil deanor. “Now, where is the Blood Seal I gave you?”
Xia Ci didn’t know if he was scared or what, but he didn’t notice Karlo’s hint.
He parted his lips, “…I… I lost it.”
“Do you still rember why I gave you the Blood Seal?” Chuzheng asked, patience wearing thin.
“…You, you asked to go out.”
“Hmm,” Chuzheng nodded. “The Blood Seal for going out is different from the usual one as well.”
Chuzheng raised her hand, and the Blood Seal on the silk suddenly flickered, the red mark began to flow, and the mont her fingers swept up, it floated into the air.
The mark was square, with a rose entwined around a door in the center.
Chuzheng casually drew another Blood Seal in the air.
The emblem in the center was different.
Honestly, it’s hard to tell the two Blood Seals apart without looking closely…
The Blood Clan looked at each other, even the princes were sowhat confused.
Many things about the Blood Clan Queen were learned from the previous King of the Blood Clan, so even the princes were not privy to the details.
