If not abolished

Chapter 53

Inside Yikun Palace.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince requests to see you." Concubine Wang was pruning branches and when she heard Zhu Zhanji coming, she quickly put down her things.

"Please come in quickly."

"Grandson pays respects to Grandmother Wang."

"Get down quickly."

Zhu Zhanji sat aside and said straight to the point: "Grandson will not beat around the bush. I came here today to ask Grandmother Wang for help with something."

"I don't think it's related to that Sun, right? I heard that you beat someone outside the palace for her and quarreled with your mother. The Crown Princess was so angry that she put you under house arrest. What's going on?" Others don't know, but Concubine Wang knows. Zhu Zhanji liked the girl from the Hu family so much before. How could he fall in love with this Sun again? Although Sun is really beautiful, she is not as beautiful as a fairy. It's impossible for Zhu Zhanji to lose his mind like this. Judging from the previous things, Zhu Zhanji is probably plotting something? It's a good time to ask about it today.

Zhu Zhanji knew that he would not be able to hide anything from Concubine Wang, "Nothing can be hidden from Grandmother Wang."

"You can help me, but I have to ask you clearly, what's wrong with you? Could it be that because the girl from the Hu family didn't want to enter the palace, you were so sad that you gave up on yourself, and you agreed to it because the Pengcheng Earl family sent you one?"

"How is that possible? My grandson is not the kind of person who would easily change his mind." Zhu Zhanji defended.

"I don't guess so, so what is the reason?" Concubine Wang kept asking.

Zhu Zhanji was forced into a corner, and besides, he was asking for help now. If he didn't give an explanation today, Grandmother Wang would not give up. "You know, my grandson originally wanted to wait until the canonization was completed and then ask Grandpa Huang to issue an order to let Shanxiang enter the palace. But later, didn't it... various things happened, and it ended up in vain? After the coronation, Grandpa Huang will definitely bring up the matter of selecting concubines again. Lady Pengchengbo had already persuaded mother to recommend Sun before, but my grandson didn't want her to enter the palace, so my grandson deliberately went to celebrate my grandmother's birthday, and then deliberately got involved, and finally made a big noise and quarreled with my mother, just to make my mother hate Sun and give up the idea of ​​recommending her. It started as my grandson expected, but I didn't expect my mother to let me out after locking me up for three days, and even agreed to let Sun enter the palace?"

After listening to him, Concubine Wang finally understood the reason for his sudden change in behavior in the past few months. "Your idea is not bad, but who persuaded your mother to change her mind?"

"My father." Zhu Zhanji checked afterwards, and he never expected that it was his father who persuaded his mother.

Concubine Wang was also surprised. "Prince? You mean to say that you don't like you getting too close to the Pengcheng Earl family? Why?"

"My grandson hasn't figured it out either. Maybe he acted too realistically, making them all mistakenly think that I really like Sun. Anyway, this is how things have turned out now." Zhu Zhanji guessed.

"So you came here today to ask for something. Have you thought of any other way?" Concubine Wang could only think that Zhu Zhanji had a new idea, otherwise he would not have come here.

Zhu Zhanji finally had the opportunity to tell the purpose of his visit today. "There is no way to stop Sun from entering the palace. Mother has already sent a message to my grandmother's family. When the emperor mentions the selection of concubines, Sun will be allowed to enter the palace immediately. By then, she will definitely learn the rules from mother. So this time, my grandson came to ask Grandmother Wang to let Sun come to your palace to learn the rules."

"What's the difference? Whether you learn the rules from me or the Crown Princess, in the future..." Concubine Wang didn't understand. As long as Sun entered the palace, she might be canonized in a year or two. Wouldn't it be the same no matter who she learned the rules from?

"You'll know when the time comes. Anyway, the person has come in, but life in this palace is not that easy." Zhu Zhanji said with a fierce look in his eyes.

"This is the first time I see you dislike someone so much. Why do you seem like you want to take revenge on her? How did a little girl offend you?" Concubine Wang asked, looking at his expression. After thinking about it, there was no conflict between the two of them.

"Grandmother Wang probably doesn't know that the wife of the Marquis of Pengcheng had been suppressing other noble ladies in the capital. They also fanned the flames of the rumor that Miss Hu San was sickly. Later, they even spread the news that Sun was going to become the Crown Prince's Consort. This was also the reason why Shanxiang left."

"If that's the case, then it's true. You'll have to do everything you can to stop Sun from entering the palace. If someone like this who is restless really becomes the Crown Prince's Consort, or even the Crown Princess' Consort, or even the Queen in the future, that may not be a good thing."

"At that time, the wife of the Marquis of Pengcheng sacrificed many people in order to protect Sun Ruoji. Are those people still in the palace now?"

"You mean, those things before..." Only then did Concubine Wang understand why Zhu Zhanji put those people in her palace.

"The Emperor will certainly come to discuss the matter of selecting a concubine with you when the time comes. I'll have to trouble Grandmother Wang to facilitate this matter then." Zhu Zhanji stood up and bowed to Concubine Wang.

"You kid, why bother? I will do my best."

A few days later, Zhu Di came to discuss this matter with Concubine Wang.

"Why don't my beloved concubines speak today?" Zhu Di talked for a long time, but saw that Concubine Wang did not say anything.

Concubine Wang looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated. After a long struggle, she finally spoke: "It's a good thing that Agui is choosing a concubine. I heard that the Crown Princess's mother's family has also chosen someone. I heard that she is a girl with outstanding looks and a good reputation. How will Your Majesty arrange it?"

"I have also heard about this. It seems that Agui is also very fond of that girl. He even quarreled with the Crown Prince and his wife. Do you think the person Agui liked before was this Miss Sun?"

"I am not very clear about this, and Agui has never mentioned it either."

"If I had given him an imperial decree, I would have just recruited him into the palace. Why is he arguing with his parents? Really?"

"Aguidin has other considerations."

"Since Agui is embarrassed, I will issue an edict when the time comes. It happens that the prince and the others also have the same idea. Let Sun enter the palace and let her learn the rules in the crown princess's palace. What do you think, my beloved?" Zhu Di asked.

"The Crown Princess's mother's family and Miss Sun's family are both from Yongcheng, and they were specially selected by the Lady of Pengcheng. They will definitely be able to adapt well to the Crown Princess's palace. I think it's great."

Zhu Di suddenly frowned after hearing this and said, "In fact, you don't have to go to the Crown Princess's Palace. If you want to learn the rules, you can go to the Concubine's Palace."

"How can this be done, my concubine..."

"Hey, my beloved concubine was praised by the queen back then, so there is nothing wrong with it. It is decided like this. My beloved concubine has worked so hard."

"Then I will respectfully obey your command and will not let your majesty down."

"My beloved concubine, just do your best and don't feel burdened."
