Chapter 351 True Identity

Zhuo Mansion.

Zhuo Jun changed his clothes, went to the study, and told her not to come out and not to disturb her.

The people around Zhuo Jun did not disobey and stood guard at the study and the courtyard entrance.

After Zhuo Jun entered the study and sat down, he poured himself a glass of wine and started to drink.

He stroked the wine glass with his hand. If his identity was exposed and someone from the palace was coming, it would probably be in the near future.

If she wasn't exposed, her eyes darkened, and she would have to think of a new way.

A moment later, two men in black suddenly jumped down from the roof, and one of them pointed a sword directly at Zhuo Jun's neck.

He warned in a low voice: "Be quiet!"

Zhuo Jun was not nervous or afraid, he even smiled and said, "Let's go."

The masked secret guard: “…” It was the first time I arrested someone secretly, and the person involved looked like this.

The two looked at each other, one of them grabbed Zhuo Jun's arm, pulled the rope thrown from the roof, and took her away from the roof."

Then another man in black jumped into the study, pretending to be Zhuo Jun working in the office.

When Zhuo Jun left, no one outside the house noticed that she had left.

The main reason was that she didn't expect anyone to come to the study and take her away. In addition, Zhuo Jun often refused to be disturbed when he entered the study recently, and would sit there until the evening.

Therefore, the people on guard didn't pay much attention to the study, and their vigilance was not that high.

Soon, several people rode towards the palace at full speed.

After entering the palace, the secret guard went in first to report the situation to the emperor.

When the emperor heard that Zhuo Jun was not surprised at all that someone showed up, and that he took the initiative to say "Let's go" without any resistance, he confirmed Xiao Hanzheng's guess.

The emperor ordered Zhuo Jun to be brought in.

When Zhuo Jun came in, she was not surprised to see Xiao Hanzheng there. She bowed to the emperor first, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

The emperor looked at Zhuo Jun sharply, and after a moment he asked her to stand up. "Do you know why I asked someone to bring you into the palace today?"

Zhuo Jun stood up and replied respectfully: "I believe the emperor already knows my identity."

The emperor looked at her with doubt and asked bluntly, "Why did you take the initiative to reveal that you are a woman and let me check your identity?"

Zhuo Jun looked up at him, "For revenge."

The emperor was puzzled. "Revenge? What revenge?"

Zhuo Jun replied: "Your Majesty should find out that my father died on the battlefield. It was actually arranged by Prince Jin."

The emperor was even more puzzled, "You want to avenge your father who died on the battlefield?"

Zhuo Jun nodded, "Yes, I am not actually the daughter of Prince Jin, but my brother."

"But Prince Jin and my mother have always lied to me, saying that I am Prince Jin's daughter, and that dressing my female companion in men's clothing was for my own good."

"At first, I thought this was true."

"But one night when I was a kid, I suddenly woke up hungry. I got up and prepared 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 found out that my mother had been hooking up with Prince Jin only after she gave birth to me."

"My father had just died at that time, and they mentioned this matter during their conversation, so I knew that it was Prince Jin who killed him."

"Because I was trained by King Jin's men since I was young, even though I was very panicked and angry at the time, I didn't say anything. I secretly returned to my room and pretended that I didn't hear anything."

"After that, I finally understood why when I was a few years old, the people King Jin sent to train me not only slapped me hard on the palm of my hand but also made me kneel in the snow when I made a mistake."

"If you don't complete the assigned homework, you won't be allowed to eat or drink. If you don't practice martial arts well, you will be whipped and made to stand in the corner. If you have any ideas of your own, they will be extinguished."

"So it's because I'm not their biological child that they treat me so harshly. I'm just a tool they trained to use."

If I accidentally bump into something, my father will feel sad for a long time.

But Prince Jin would not do that. He would only smile and speak to her gently, and then encourage her and entrust her with important tasks. Later, when she knew the truth, she found it all too fake.

If she had not accidentally overheard the conversation between Prince Jin and her mother, she might have really become the person they both expected her to be.

The emperor was skeptical when he heard her words, but he did find out some things about what she said.

The secret guards found out that Zhuo Jun had received very strict training since he was a child.

It seems that he has suffered a lot.

The emperor asked curiously, "Why is Prince Jin with your mother?"

He has some understanding of King Jin, so he shouldn't be so hungry that he will eat anything.

According to what Zhuo Jun said, her mother already had a husband and gave birth to a daughter, but Prince Jin was actually having an affair with her. This seemed a little strange.

Zhuo Jun pursed his lips and was silent for a moment before saying, "I suspect that my mother is a princess of the previous dynasty."

"She is very beautiful and very resourceful. She must have taken the initiative to seduce Prince Jin."

"But I guess that Prince Jin should know the identity of my mother."

"In addition to being together, they also collaborate."

Although my mother never revealed it, she was aware of it because we lived together often.

The emperor was stunned. "Why do you doubt it? 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. She was saved by my father, and she married him in order to survive."

"Then after she gave birth to me, the people from the previous dynasty should have found her."

"Because of this, she gradually changed and took the initiative to seduce King Jin, killing my father."

"The reason why I guessed that she was a princess of the previous dynasty was because 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 shocked. "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 I had doubts at that time that I sneaked into my mother's room to find out.

When she saw those things, she was really scared.

The emperor tapped his fingers on the table and fell into deep thought.

If that were the case, it would make sense why Prince Jin would attack a married woman.

Based on his understanding of Prince Jin, he was a narrow-minded and vindictive person.

If she gave birth to a son with the princess of the previous dynasty, if Prince Jin's rebellion failed, Prince Jin's people and the people of the previous dynasty would work together to support the child in restoring the country.

If it succeeds, King Jin might be laughing in the underworld.

A son with the blood of the previous dynasty ascended to the throne, which confused the bloodline of the entire Daliang and might even subvert Daliang.

Prince Jin probably had only one idea: if he couldn't get the throne, then he would be ruined, even if it meant destroying Daliang as well.

Of course, the reason why Prince Jin hooked up with Zhuo Jun's mother was definitely because he wanted to use the power of the previous dynasty to assist him.

He also found out that Prince Jin had secret dealings with the royal family of Ge State.

He really didn't expect that his younger brother not only colluded with the enemy country, but now even colluded with the remnants of the previous dynasty.

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't suppress his anger. What a cruel Prince Jin!
