"Brother, today is the day when your grandson's beautiful daughter is proven to be a virgin."
From Zhu Zhanji's shocked expression, we can tell that he is not aware of this matter, because he has been immersed in the planning and construction of the bank these days, and Sun Ruowei has not been here for many days.
Sun Ruowei had to learn etiquette and talents together with the other beautiful ladies who entered the palace. This period of time was equivalent to closed training, and the physical examination came suddenly, and even no news could be spread among them.
The main reason is that there are some means of pretending to be so pure that it is difficult to distinguish, so the physical examination often starts suddenly.
Zhu Zhanji knew that Sun Ruowei was broken. After all, he was the culprit. If he was tested like this, he would be found out.
He also understood the reason for Zhu Zhanzhen's insinuation, and his expression immediately became nervous: "Did you get the news?"
"Sister Ruowei was arrested during the physical examination. The eunuch guarding the gate took the risk and asked Xiaosheng to pass the news to me. She should have been locked up now."
A beautiful woman who was caught having sex would be tortured to find out who had sex and then be accused of the crime together. How could Zhu Zhanji endure the torture of his own daughter-in-law?
Zhu Zhanji rushed out of the door to find the Crown Princess, but he happened to meet Hu Shanggong who came to see him at the door. Hu Shanggong looked panicked and said: "Grandson, the Crown Princess has a message for you to come over."
Zhu Zhanji couldn't wait for any etiquette, so he ran away minding his own business.
"Hurry up and chase your grandson, don't let your grandson bump into you." Hu Shanwei hurriedly ordered his eunuchs.
The dress of the female officer cannot move greatly, so Hu Shanwei himself will definitely not be able to catch up.
"Hu Shanggong, don't panic. My eldest brother is good at bow and horse. I'm just a little panicked. It's nothing serious."
"What His Highness the Fifth Prince said is absolutely true."
Hu Shanwei led the female officer towards the crown princess again, and Zhu Zhanzhen followed.
"Can Hu Shanggong take a step to speak?"
"Your Highness, the matter is urgent now, let's talk while walking." He waved his sleeves and asked the two female officers who were following him to step back a little so as not to interfere with them.
Zhu Zhanchen stopped talking nonsense: "Hu Shanggong, how is sister Ruowei?"
As he walked and talked, Hu Shanwei was out of breath: "Ruowei resisted violently before being examined. The three nuns tried their best to catch her. After being caught, the examination revealed that her body was damaged. This
But this time, I am the only beautiful girl who was found to have a bad health."
From her anxious expression, it was clear that this matter was very serious.
"Now she is locked up in the house, and I have ordered people not to spread the news. If ordinary people are like this, they will be tortured to find out who has lost their virginity. But she is Ruowei. I wonder if she is the grandson.
Your Highness, I asked a few questions but Ruowei refused to say anything. The matter cannot be delayed. I reported to the Crown Princess first and ordered no one to torture Ruowei."
Zhu Zhanzhen felt a little relieved. Fortunately, no torture was used. If he had been tortured, when Zhu Zhanji became angry, his Aunt Hu would probably suffer.
When the two came outside the palace of the Crown Princess, they heard the sound of cups being smashed inside. The Crown Princess became angry and all the eunuchs and maids were screened away. The two of them walked so close that they could hear the Crown Princess scolding her in a lowered voice.
"You are my great-grandson. Why can't you resist such a trivial matter and turn it into such a big joke in the future?" Although the voice was very low, you could hear the anger in the words.
Zhu Zhanji knelt down without saying a word and allowed his mother to scold him.
"Your Highness, Fifth Prince, please go back first. If it is inconvenient for you, I will tell you when the matter is over." Hu Shanwei stopped Zhu Zhanchen, who nodded and went back first.
Hu Shanwei walked into the house and saw that the princess was about to fight, so Hu Shanwei hurriedly stopped her.
Zhu Zhanji finally spoke: "Mom, Ruowei and I know this, but it just happened earlier. It would be better if I married Ruowei."
"You..., you treacherous son who doesn't know etiquette, do you know that any beautiful girl in the palace who loses her body before entering the palace is an indiscreet person, and if she catches the other party, both of them will be executed in a hurry. If Ruowei is in a bad mood now,
He has also been corrupted, how can he still hold his head high after being in the harem?"
The battle between women in the harem is a competition between etiquette, dignity, heirs, natal family and favor.
Even if the target was Zhu Zhanji, she would still be charged with having an affair. As a female official, she would also be charged with seducing the grandson. Even if she married Zhu Zhanji, she would be inferior among other concubines in the future.
"Mom, I don't care, I must marry Ruowei."
"You're such a traitor." The princess was so angry that she almost fainted. Hu Shanwei helped her sit down and calm down.
Qi Guiqi, his eldest son's matter must be dealt with.
"You...you...hey, that's all. I originally intended for Ruowei to be your concubine, but there are so many people staring at this position and deliberately keeping a distance. Why...hey, you go back first."
"Mom, mother, what should I do if I am Ruowei?" Zhu Zhanji
"If you go back, I will handle it and won't let your wife be kicked out of the palace, but don't think about the position of the principal concubine." The Crown Princess glared at him.
Zhu Zhanji hurriedly thanked him.
…
No matter how he thought about it on the way back, Zhu Zhanchen felt that something was wrong. There was something fishy about Sun Ruowei's arrest.
As evening approached, Hu Shanwei came to Zhu Zhanzhen's yard. Zhu Zhanzhen retreated, leaving only himself and Hu Shanxiang. Hu Shanxiang picked up the newly boiled water and made Zhu Zhanzhen tea.
"Your Highness, there isn't much tea in your room. I'll order someone to bring some over later."
"I didn't expect that Hu Shanggong also had a deep research on tea art."
The slender hand held the ceramic cup and handed it to Zhu Zhanyi, as if he was showing it to Zhu Zhanyi.
"Hu Shanggong, how are things going with eldest brother and sister Ruowei?"
"The Crown Princess has been suppressed. It's just that Ruowei withdrew from the show. Now she is locked up in the cold palace and being punished. I guess she will find an opportunity to be released after the selection of the concubine is over."
"Be punished? Brother, can you be willing?"
Hu Shanwei smiled lightly: "Of course Your Highness Taisun is not willing to do so. It is said that she is being punished and is just being locked up. She does not need to be whipped. According to Taisun's temperament, she will definitely find a way to prevent her from eating and drinking.
Be wronged."
"What does mother concubine mean?"
"When the Concubine Taisun is chosen, she will make Ruowei her concubine in a few months and a half. However, Ruowei is afraid that she will always be a dwarf in the harem. However, she has His Highness the Grandson's preference and no one else can bully her."
"Hu Shanggong sounds like you are quite envious of sister Ruowei."
Maybe there was no one around, maybe it was the rising moonlight that was alluring, and Hu Shanwei didn't know where he got the courage to say to Zhu Zhanchen, "Yes, which woman in the world wouldn't envy someone who has such a preference."
Zhu Zhanzhen took a sip of the tea brewed by Hu Shanwei. Aunt Hu's tea skills were indeed excellent.
