Chapter 56 In just a short time, I became the second child!

There are no secrets in the palace.

The news that Zhu Zhangui and Zhu Zhanji's sizes were mistaken when they were children spread throughout the Jinling aristocratic circle in just over an hour.

Many people were surprised by this news and wondered how such a dramatic thing could happen to the royal family.

And many smart people quickly discovered the problem.

If there was a problem with the size of the two people, it stands to reason that it should have been discovered long ago. Why was it discovered at this time?

Therefore, there is only one possible outcome.

Someone deliberately brought this matter out so that Zhu Zhangui could successfully ascend to power.

Regarding the person behind the scenes, many people suspected that it was the prince, and of course more people suspected that it was Zhu Zhangui who did it.

After all, the biggest beneficiary of this incident is Zhu Zhangui, which has to be doubted.

But what's the use of doubting?

The emperor has already identified Zhu Zhangui. If anyone wants to provoke this matter again, it will be a slap in the emperor's face.

Slapping the emperor in the face is simply asking for death.

Not only will the leader be beheaded, but all the nine tribes will also sing Liangliang together.

So even if many people have questions about this matter, no one dares to raise it, let alone discuss it in public.

"What, I'm the second child?"

At the door of the Jinyiwei prison, Zhu Zhanji, who was accompanying Sun Ruowei, stared blankly at the Jinyiwei commander Ji Gang who was standing in front of him.

"That's right, Your Highness the Second Emperor, I have just returned from the court meeting, and Your Majesty has already found out all the reasons for the matter. When you and Your Highness were born, due to Po Wen's mistake, the size of the two of you was mistaken.

.”

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. When calling Zhu Zhanji, Ji Gang directly called the Second Emperor's Grandson, and addressed Zhu Zhangui as His Highness the Grandson.

"How...how...how is it possible?"

Zhu Zhanji suddenly collapsed on the ground, his expression lost.

Sun Ruowei, who was beside him, was also surprised by the news.

But then, she seemed to have thought of something, and said to Zhu Zhanji: "Did your grandfather not like you anymore? He planned to let your brother take your place, so that's why he did this."

"presumptuous!"

Before Zhu Zhanji could say anything, Ji Gang shouted with a cold face.

"Miscellaneous!"

In an instant, the surrounding Jinyi guards drew their cold knives and looked at Sun Ruowei coldly.

"Don't be impulsive, she just said it carelessly."

Zhu Zhanji, who was awakened, glared at Sun Ruowei and quickly stopped the Jin Yiwei who was about to arrest him.

"Master Ji, she just said it unintentionally. Look at this second brother, oh, no, for the sake of my eldest brother, let her go."

Ji Gang withdrew his cold eyes and smiled at Zhu Zhanji.

"Since His Highness the Second Emperor's grandson has spoken, I will give you this face. I hope that Your Highness will keep this Miss Sun's mouth in check in the future, but you won't have such good luck next time."

After saying that, he bowed his hands and turned to leave.

Zhu Zhanji forced the other party to leave with a smile.

After Ji Gang walked into Jinyiwei, Zhu Zhanji pulled Sun Ruowei and ran towards the alley not far away.

"Let me go, I won't leave!"

Arriving in the alley, Sun Ruowei struggled hard against Zhu Zhanji's pull.

"You really want to die, don't you? That Ji Gang is the second child, and you actually said bad things about the second child in front of him."

"snort!"

Sun Ruowei also knew that he had said the wrong thing just now, so he snorted, turned his head to the side, and ignored Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji was also very confused now. He was not thinking about this matter, but was frowning and circling back and forth.

After a while, he looked at Sun Ruowei and said, "If you want to save your father, Xu Bin and others, come into the palace with me now."

Sun Ruowei suddenly looked back at Zhu Zhanji, "Can you rescue them?"

Zhu Zhanji gritted his teeth.

"I'm not sure if it's possible, but the chances are high."

After saying that, he took Sun Ruowei and headed to the palace.

Sun Ruowei did not resist and allowed Zhu Zhanji to pull him forward.

Soon, the two arrived at the East Palace.

As soon as I entered the door, I happened to meet Hu Shanxiang who was preparing to go out with his maid.

"I have met His Highness!"

Hu Shanxiang bowed politely.

"Is my mother here?"

Hu Shanxiang kept a polite smile and replied: "The Crown Princess is in Chuxiu Palace to select girls for His Majesty the Grand Sun."

Zhu Zhanji frowned.

"Didn't I say that? We'll talk about this later. Why are you still so anxious?"

But when he finished speaking, he saw that Hu Shanxiang just smiled and said nothing.

Only then did Zhu Zhanji realize that the grandson the other party was talking about was not him.

"me…"

Zhu Zhanji opened his mouth, but couldn't say the word "big brother".

"Is my dad here with him?"

Hu Shanxiang naturally understood who Zhu Zhanji was talking about.

"The Crown Prince and His Majesty the Grand Sun are not here. It seems that they were called away by His Majesty after attending the court meeting."

Hearing that his father and Zhu Zhangui were not there, Zhu Zhanji hesitated and said to Sun Ruowei behind him: "You wait for me here first, I will go see grandpa."

After saying that, without waiting for Sun Ruowei's reply, he turned around and headed towards the inner palace.

Watching Zhu Zhanji go away, Hu Shanxiang smiled at Sun Ruo and nodded before leaving with the maid.

"Well, wait a minute."

Sun Ruowei called out to Hu Shanxiang.

"Girl, do you have any orders?"

Hu Shanxiang stopped and turned to look at Sun Ruowei.

“May I ask this lady official’s name?”

Seeing Hu Shanxiang's face, Sun Ruo pursed her lips slightly and asked the doubts that had been in her heart for a long time.

Regarding this question, Hu Shanxiang did not hide anything and replied with a smile: "My surname is Hu, and I am kind and auspicious."

The name Sun Ruowei was very unfamiliar, but he continued without giving up: "My surname is Sun, and my name is Ruowei."

Hu Shanxiang trembled slightly, pursed his lips, looked at Sun Ruowei and said: "Miss Sun, you look pale and look a little weak. You'd better go back and rest early!"

After saying that, he took a deep look at Sun Ruowei, turned around and was about to lead the people away.

Looking at the figure who was about to walk away, Sun Ruowei took a few steps quickly and shouted: "You should know what I want to express. Did you ever play pretend riding a horse when you were a child?"

Hu Shanxiang, who was about to walk away with his maid, slowly stopped and looked back at Sun Ruowei. Under the expectant gaze of the other party, he shook his head slightly.

Sun Ruowei's expectant eyes dimmed instantly, and she murmured to herself:

"Is my feeling really wrong?"

It's a pity that she didn't see Hu Shanxiang who turned and left, his eyes already filled with tears.

Hu Shanxiang naturally knew what Sun Ruowei meant.

She has confirmed in her heart that Sun Ruowei is her sister, but she cannot recognize Sun Ruowei.

She is Zhu Zhangui's person.

Sun Ruowei is the girl Zhu Zhanji likes.

Based on her understanding of Zhu Zhangui, if Zhu Zhangui knew that she and Sun Ruowei were sisters.

Then her status under Zhu Zhangui, below one person and above ten thousand people, will disappear in an instant.

She may even be driven back to the palace and become a powerless little palace maid again.

Hu Shanxiang finally reached this position and had such a good opportunity.

In the future, as long as I serve Zhu Zhangui well, I will be lucky enough to have a son and a half daughters.

As long as Zhu Zhangui ascends the throne, he will at least be an imperial concubine.

But once she gets to know Sun Ruowei and is driven away by Zhu Zhangui, let alone the imperial concubine, there is a high chance that she will die alone in the corner of the palace like those old palace maids.

Therefore, in order not to suffer that sin in the future, and in order to become the high-ranking imperial concubine who enjoys glory and wealth, she must not have any relationship with Sun Ruowei.
