Chapter 3 Family Jade Pendant

"I'm not an imposter!"

the little boy retorted. "If you don't want to acknowledge me as your son, just say so! Why refuse to admit it?

If it weren't for my mother's dying wish, I wouldn't have come to acknowledge you as my father!"

"Haha! Such a young age, yet so bold, daring to defy the Prince."

Madam Xuanhua asked in surprise, "What's your name? And who is your mother?"

"My name is Wu Tianjiao, and my mother's name is Zhao Xianxian."

The little boy stood tall and proud, saying confidently, "Before my mother passed away, she told me that my father was Wu

Wudi , and that I should come to the capital to acknowledge my ancestors."

"Wu Tianjiao, Zhao Xianxian?"

Madam Xuanhua murmured, then asked Wu Wudi, "Do you know a woman named Zhao Xianxian?"

Wu Wudi pondered for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Madam! I don't know any Zhao Xianxian..." "

You're lying! Twelve years ago, in Green Ridge, have you forgotten?"

Wu Tianjiao clenched his fists and shouted loudly, his voice filled with grief and indignation.

"Green Ridge? Twelve years ago?"

Wu Wudi was startled upon hearing this, his eyelids drooping as he fell into deep thought.

Wu Qingshuang approached Wu Tianjiao and said, "Child! Words are no proof. What evidence do you have to prove you are

my brother?"

"Of course I have evidence!"

Wu Tianjiao said, reaching into his pocket and pulling out a small apricot-yellow cloth bag. He said, "This

was left to me by my mother. Surely the Prince of Jinyang recognizes it?"

"Huh! What is that?"

Upon seeing the small cloth bag, Wu Wudi trembled, as if remembering something. His expression changed drastically, and he

abruptly stood up, quickly stepping forward and snatching the small cloth bag from Wu Tianjiao's hands. Holding it in his hands, which

trembled slightly, he asked, "Child! Is this cloth bag really left to you by your mother?"

"Of course it's my mother's. Didn't you give it to her?"

Wu Tianjiao said.

Wu Wudi returned to his seat and placed the small cloth bag on the coffee table. With trembling hands, he carefully

opened it layer by layer. Madam Xuanhua and her two daughters all focused their attention on the bag, eager to see what was inside and

what had excited him so much.

The small cloth bag was wrapped tightly in three layers inside and three layers outside. Amid everyone's anticipation, Wu Wudi unwrapped

layer after layer, finally removing the last layer of cloth to reveal a round jade pendant. The jade pendant was made of white jade,

crystal clear, with an eagle-shaped pattern and engraved characters. Madam Xuanhua was the first to take the jade pendant in her hand and

examined it carefully. In the center of the jade pendant was engraved a large character "Wu," and on the other side was Wudi's name, along with his birth

date and time.

"The family jade pendant," Madam Xuanhua said, her brows furrowing slightly, her face darkening instantly.

She stared coldly at Wu Wudi and sneered, "Wu Wudi, what do you have to say now? Don't tell me this

isn't your jade pendant!"

"This...this..." Wu Wudi's face flushed red, his expression embarrassed, stammering, unsure what to say.

The evidence was irrefutable, the proof unshakeable; faced with the facts, there was no room for him to defend himself.

"Hmph!"

Madam Xuanhua was furious, snorting heavily through her nostrils. She slammed the

jade pendant onto the coffee table, stood up abruptly, opened her mouth to curse, but then remembered something,

swallowed her words, and patiently sat down. She looked at Wu Tianjiao, then at Wu Wudi, her eyes darting around, and

said, "This child is not bad! He's also handsome, Your Highness! Anyway, I don't have a son, so let him stay

!"

By saying this, she was essentially acknowledging Wu Tianjiao as a member of the Wu family. Wu Wudi breathed a

sigh wiping the cold sweat from his brow with his sleeve, and forced a smile, saying, "Excellent! Excellent!"

"Father! Mother! You've already accepted it!"

Wu Qingshuang interjected, "Isn't this too hasty? A jade pendant proves nothing!"

Wu Xuanshuang said, "Sister is absolutely right. A jade pendant can't prove anything. Only a blood test can

prove whether he is Father's son!"

"No need!"

Wu Wudi waved his sleeve and said, "He is my son, no doubt about it. Twelve years ago, I went

hunting and met a village girl. And her... Alas! I can only blame myself for not being able to control myself. I got drunk and lost control. When I woke up, the village girl was gone, and my jade pendant was gone too. Now that I think about it, it turns out she took my jade pendant

while I was asleep !" 　　He spoke vaguely and unclearly, but Lady Xuanhua understood the gist of it. Although she was angry, she couldn't press the matter in front of her daughter. She had to save face for her husband. However, her daughter's words were not without reason. A single jade pendant could not prove that Wu Tianjiao was a descendant of the Wu family; only a blood test could verify it. Thinking of this, she said, "Xuanshuang! Go..." She had barely finished speaking when she suddenly noticed Wu Wudi shaking his head at her with a strange expression. A thought struck her, and she quickly changed her words, "Xuanshuang, Qingshuang, take your brother to bathe, change clothes, and have a meal." 　　Wu Xuanshuang and Wu Qingshuang agreed and led Wu Tianjiao out of the hall. Once they were far away, Madam Xuanhua stared at Wu Wudi and said, "Speak! Why didn't you let him undergo the blood test? What's strange about this? " 　　Wu Wudi shushed her and called out towards the door, "Someone!" " 　　Your subordinate is here!" 　　Wang Heng ran into the living room and bowed respectfully. 　　"My wife and I have important matters to discuss. Have the guards outside retreat fifty paces. Without my order , no one is allowed to approach the hall. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy!" 　　Wu Wudi said sternly. 　　"Yes, sir!" 　　Wang Heng's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly responded, turning and rushing out of the hall. Instantly, his shouts echoed from outside the door. 　　Seeing his seriousness, Lady Xuanhua's heart tightened, her expression turning grave. She exclaimed, " What are you doing ? Why are you making such a fuss?" 　　Wu Wudi replied, "This matter is of great importance; I must be cautious to prevent any leaks." 　　"That child isn't yours?" 　　Lady Xuanhua asked. 　　"Of course not!" 　　Wu Wudi said, "How could I possibly do something to betray you!"

Lady Xuanhua asked in surprise, "Then why did you admit it just now? And what about the jade pendant?"

"I can't deny it!"

Wu Wudi said with a bitter smile, "The jade pendant was something I lost to His Majesty when we made a bet!"

Uh! Xuanhua's eyes widened, her jaw nearly dropping in astonishment. She reacted quickly, instantly realizing a possibility

, and blurted out, "You mean... that child might..." Wu Wudi nodded slightly, his expression grave, and

said, "Back then, His Majesty and I were hunting in the Demon Beast Forest when we encountered a village girl. His Majesty saw that she was quite

beautiful and became lustful, so he abducted her and took her back to the camp. He released her afterwards. Madam, didn't you notice

how much that child resembled His Majesty, especially his eyes? They're so similar!"

Hearing this, Xuanhua... The lady's expression shifted, and she suddenly realized, "There is a resemblance. I

would n't mentioned it! Since it's His Majesty's fault, then His Majesty should bear the consequences. Why should you?"

Wu Wudi said, "His Majesty is getting old, and his health is not what it used to be. He has not yet established an heir apparent. The princes

are vying for power and scheming against each other, all eyeing the throne. Just think, what would happen if His Majesty suddenly had another prince

? Would the princes let this child go? How could that child know the dangers of the palace? If he entered the palace

, I estimate he wouldn't live more than three days."

"Then what do you plan to do?"

Lady Xuanhua frowned. "Are you willing to be a sucker and raise His Majesty's son?"

Wu Wudi pondered for a moment and said, "Let the child stay at the manor for now. Tomorrow I'll go to the palace to sound out His Majesty

's opinion..." Before he could finish speaking, both of his ears twitched suddenly, his face changed drastically, his pupils contracted,

and his eyes revealed a terrifying glint—Lady Xuanhua was shocked at the sight. Before she could react, Wu Wudi's right hand shot out,

his five fingers like hooks, reaching out to grab at the skylight in the roof. His grab was at least three zhang away from the skylight, and his claws emitted

a powerful, invisible suction force that pulled towards the roof. A whistling airflow was generated in the air, and in an instant, boom—

the skylight shattered, and a figure, mixed with a large amount of broken tiles and snow, fell into the hall. Thud! He landed heavily

three feet in front of Wu Wudi, revealing a man in white.

The man in white spat out a spray of blood and screamed in utter horror, "Capturing the Dragon—heartbreaking—"
