At the Zhuo Mansion.
Zhuo Jun changed her clothes went to the study room, and told her not to come out and not to disturb her.
The people around Zhuo Jun didn’t disobey and stood guard at the study room and the gate of the courtyard.
After Zhuo Jun entered the study room and sat down, he poured himself a glass of wine and drank it.
Her hand stroked the wine glass. If someone from the palace came after her identity was exposed, it should be shortly.
If it was not exposed, her eyes darkened, and she could only think of a new way.
After a while, two men in black suddenly jumped down from the roof, and one of them pointed his sword directly at Zhuo Jun’s neck.
He warned in a low voice: “Don’t make a sound!”
Zhuo Jun was not nervous or afraid, but smiled: “Let’s go.”
The masked guard: “……”
This was the first time he secretly captured someone being cooperative like this.
The two men looked at each other, one of them grabbed one of Zhuo Jun’s arms, pulled the rope thrown from the roof, and took her away from the roof.
Then another man in black jumped into the study room, pretending to be Zhuo Jun working.
When Zhuo Jun left, no one outside noticed that she had left.
The main reason was that she didn’t expect anyone to come to the study room and take her away. In addition, Zhuo Jun often refused to be disturbed when she entered the study room recently, and she would sit there until the evening.
So the guards didn’t pay much attention to the study room, and their vigilance was not that high.
Soon, several people rushed to the palace at full speed.
After entering the palace, the secret guards went in first to report the situation to the Emperor.
When the emperor heard that Zhuo Jun was not surprised that someone appeared, and took the initiative to say “Let’s go” without any resistance, he also confirmed Xiao Hanzheng’s guess.
The Emperor asked someone to bring Zhuo Jun in.
After Zhuo Jun came in, she was not surprised to see Xiao Hanzheng there. She saluted the Emperor first, “Greetings, Your Majesty! ”
The Emperor looked at Zhuo Jun sharply, and asked her to stand up after a while: “Do you know why I asked someone to bring you into the palace today?”
Zhuo Jun stood up and replied respectfully: “I think the Emperor already knows my identity.”
The Emperor looked puzzled and asked bluntly: “You took the initiative to expose yourself as a woman and let me check your identity. What is the purpose?”
Zhuo Jun looked up at him: “For revenge.”
The Emperor was puzzled, “Revenge? What revenge?”
Zhuo Jun replied: “The Emperor should find out that my father died on the battlefield, which was arranged by Prince Jin.”
The emperor was even more puzzled: “You want to avenge the father who died on the battlefield?”
Zhuo Jun nodded: “Yes, I am not Prince Jin’s biological daughter, but my younger brother. ”
“But Prince Jin and my mother have always lied to me, saying that I am Prince Jin’s daughter, and that dressing me up as a man is for my good.”
“At first I thought it was true.”
“But when I was a kid, I woke up suddenly hungry at night and got up to go to the kitchen to find something to eat. I saw the oil lamp was still on in my mother’s room, so I walked over quietly out of curiosity.”
“Then I accidentally overheard the conversation between Prince Jin and my mother, and I learned that my mother had hooked up with Prince Jin after giving birth to me.”
“My father had just died not long ago, and they mentioned this in their conversation, so I knew that it was Prince Jin who killed him.”
“Because I was trained by Prince Jin’s people since I was a child, although I was very panicked and angry at the time, I didn’t say anything, and secretly returned to my room, pretending that I didn’t hear anything. ”
“After that, I finally understood why the people Prince Jin sent to train me when I was a few years old not only slapped me hard on the palm of my hand but also made me kneel in the snow when I made mistakes.”
“If I don’t finish the assigned homework, I won’t be given food or water. If I don’t practice martial arts well, I will be whipped and punished to stand. If I have any ideas of my own, they will extinguish them.”
“It turns out that because I am not their biological child, they treat me so harshly. I am just a tool they have trained to use. ”
But the father in her memory would hold her on his lap, coax her, and buy toys for her.
If she bumped into something by accident, her father would feel distressed for a long time.
But Prince Jin would not do that. He would only smile and talk to her gently, and then encourage her and entrust her with important tasks. Later, when she knew the truth, she found it too fake.
If she hadn’t accidentally heard the conversation between Prince Jin and his mother, she might have become what they expected.
The Emperor was skeptical when he heard her words, but he did find out some of what she said.
The secret guards found that Zhuo Jun had been trained very strictly since he was a child.
It seems that she suffered a lot.
The Emperor asked curiously: “Why is Prince Jin with your mother? ”
He knew Prince Jin a little bit, so he shouldn’t be so desperate.
According to what Zhuo Jun said, her mother already had a husband and gave birth to a daughter, but Prince Jin was hooking up with her. This was a bit strange.
Zhuo Jun pursed her lips and was silent for a moment before saying: “I suspect my mother is a princess of the previous dynasty.”
“She is very beautiful and very resourceful. She should have taken the initiative to hook up with Prince Jin.”
“But I guess Prince Jin should know my mother’s identity.”
“In addition to being together, they might also be cooperating.”
Although her mother had never revealed it, she was aware of it because they lived together often.
The Emperor was stunned: “Why do you suspect so much? And if your mother was a princess of the previous dynasty, why did she marry your father and give birth to you?”
Zhuo Jun replied: “During the war, my mother was in trouble and almost died. Then she was saved by my father. To survive, she married my father.”
“After giving birth to me, people from the previous dynasty should have found her.”
“Because of this, she gradually changed, and took the initiative to seduce Prince Jin and killed my father.”
“The reason why I guessed that she was a princess of the previous dynasty is that I once sneaked into her room and found the imperial seal of the previous dynasty in a secret compartment, as well as some letters and a treasure map.”
The Emperor was surprised: “You said that the imperial seal of the previous dynasty is in your mother’s hands?”
Zhuo Jun nodded: “Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. ”
It was because of suspicion that she sneaked into her mother’s room to investigate.
When she saw those things, she was really scared.
The Emperor tapped the table with his fingers and pondered.
If that were the case, it would make sense why Prince Jin would have a relationship with a married woman.
Based on his understanding of Prince Jin, he was a narrow-minded and vindictive person.
He gave birth to a son with the princess of the previous dynasty. If Prince Jin’s rebellion fails, Prince Jin’s people and the people of the previous dynasty will work together to support the child to restore the country.
If it succeeds, Prince Jin would laugh in the underworld.
The son with the blood of the previous dynasty ascended the throne, confusing the blood of the entire Daliang, and might even overthrow Daliang.
Prince Jin should have only one idea, that if he could not get the throne, he would ruin it. He doesn’t care if the entire Daliang fell into ruin.
Of course, the reason why Prince Jin hooked up with Zhuo Jun’s mother was definitely to use the power of the previous dynasty for assistance.
He also found out that Prince Jin secretly had dealings with the imperial family of Ge.
He really didn’t expect that his younger brother not only collude with the enemy country but even hook up with the remnants of the previous dynasty.
Thinking of this, the Emperor couldn’t suppress his anger. What Prince Jin did was simply crazy.
