Looking at Yuan Hong and Da Pu, who both had heterochromia and even looked slightly similar, Gao Hongyuan was momentarily unsure which one was the Second Prince he was looking for.
Regardless of who it is, according to the corresponding astrological signs, the Second Prince is definitely one of the two. At worst, we can just kill both of them.
Gao Hongyuan was excited. He rushed to the two of them, examined them carefully, and muttered, "Great, great."
Then he turned to Xiao Yanchu and Su Ruojin and bowed, "Thank you, Your Highness and Your Highness. If I find the Second Prince for Xiaoyue, I will never forget this kindness."
Xiao Yanchu remained calm. "Grand Preceptor, you just said that Xiaoyue has lost a prince, but there are two children with heterochromia. How can you be sure which one is Xiaoyue's second prince?"
The Red Pearl is not in the palace, so how can Gao Hongyuan determine who the second prince is?
Gao Hongyuan explained, "Although the late emperor is no longer here and it is impossible to verify kinship through blood tests, there is still a secret method in the palace. We only need to go to the palace and have our blood tested to verify the identity of the second prince."
Oh, I never knew it could be like that.
“Since that’s the case, we shouldn’t stop them. How about this, Grand Preceptor, tomorrow the King and Queen will personally escort them to the palace.” Xiao Yanchu agreed.
Gao Hongyuan was stunned. He hadn't expected Xiao Yanchu and Su Ruojin to personally bring the two children into the palace.
"Your Highness, it's a rare opportunity for you and the Princess to visit Xiaoyue. Why don't I have someone show you around Longxiao City tomorrow? I'll take these two children back to the palace today, and I'll definitely report back to Your Highness and the Princess later. Once we confirm that the Second Prince of Xiaoyue has been found, we will present you with a generous gift."
Gao Hongyuan subconsciously didn't want Xiao Yanchu and Su Ruojin to go with him. If they didn't go, it would be up to him to decide whether these two children were the Second Prince or not.
Treating commoner children is different from treating princes.
If they go with us, things will definitely change.
Su Ruojin smiled faintly, "It seems the Imperial Advisor's information network is still not up-to-date enough. Do you think I would feel comfortable letting my younger brother accompany the Imperial Advisor into the palace alone?"
Gao Hongyuan was stunned, not understanding for a moment what Su Ruojin meant.
He had only heard that Princess Chang Le was the last child of General Su of the Great Chu. If that was the case, then where did Su Ruojin get a younger brother?
"The princess's younger brother?" Gao Hongyuan couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, I suppose the Imperial Advisor knows that I left the Su family many years ago and have been relying on my two younger brothers ever since. Now that I have returned to the Su family, my two younger brothers will naturally come with me."
Su Ruojin's words were like a blow to Gao Hongyuan's head.
If this second prince is the younger brother of the Regent's Consort of Great Chu, then all his previous plans will be ruined.
If something happens to the Second Prince, given Su Ruojin's personality, she will definitely not let it go.
Unlike Gao Hongyuan's worries, Dap's eyes flashed with shock when he heard Su Ruojin say this.
Previously, the princess had said that if he wanted to return to the Great Chu, he would have whatever Yuan Hong had. At the time, Dapu thought the princess was just being polite.
But now that Su Ruojin has said to Gao Hongyuan that he is her brother, it is as if she has really placed Dapu and Yuan Hong on the same level.
Dap felt a lump in his throat; he had never imagined that the princess would treat him so well.
Dapu stole a glance at Yuan Hong and secretly vowed that if Yuan Hong ever became the emperor of Xiaoyue, he would study martial arts diligently, become a general of Xiaoyue, and protect the peace of Xiaoyue for Yuan Hong.
At this moment, Yuan Hong had no idea what Jin Jie's words about "two younger brothers" would bring him.
Gao Hongyuan quickly calmed the slight panic in his heart. No matter what, he had to confirm the identity of the Second Prince first.
At worst, we can wait until Su Ruojin and the others return to Da Chu before taking action.
It wouldn't be difficult to make the second prince sick for a while and die slowly, or to make him become mentally unstable like his mother.
not to mention......
Gao Hongyuan glanced at Ling Zilan beside him.
