If not abolished

Inside Rouyi Palace.

The Crown Princess listened to the palace servants reporting to her what had happened in the past few days.

"Go and see if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned. If he has, ask him to come over. If he hasn't come back yet, go find him quickly." The Crown Princess was so angry that she almost fell over because of the things on her desk.

"Yes."

This matter has to start from the beginning. Ever since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to the Pengcheng Earl's Mansion and met the legendary Sun, it has been out of control. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been finding excuses to go to the Pengcheng Earl's Mansion every few days, and he even calls it learning from his uncle's brothers and sisters. After going there so many times, everyone knows that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's real intention is not to go there, but to see Miss Sun.

Last month, because of the urgency of the enthronement and crowning ceremony, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stayed in the palace and did not go out. But after this month, he went out every day again. Originally, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was indeed old, and even Zhu Di turned a blind eye to it when he heard about it. He did not pay much attention to it and just waited until the end of this year to choose a concubine for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

If it was just a simple meeting between the two of them, drinking tea, and going out for fun, there would be nothing wrong, but the Crown Princess just received news that Zhu Zhanji actually beat someone up outside for that Sun. If His Majesty and the Crown Prince knew about this, it would be disastrous.

The Crown Princess almost fainted just thinking about it, and Jinyun beside her hurriedly supported her: "Don't be too anxious, madam. Let's wait until His Royal Highness arrives and hear what's going on. His Royal Highness is not such an impulsive person."

"In the past, I also thought that Agui was a steady and sensible boy. He had never made me and the prince worry since he was a child. But these days, Jinyun, you don't know, ever since Agui met this Sun, he has become a different person. He is capable of doing anything. I can't imagine how Agui could have become like this." After the Crown Princess finished speaking, she pressed her head, she was so angry that she had a headache.

"If it really doesn't work, let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince discipline him. There is His Majesty above him. His Majesty will definitely not watch His Royal Highness the Crown Prince like this, right?"

"If His Highness and His Majesty knew about this, their legs would be broken."

"Hello, mother. Your son pays his respects to you." Soon Zhu Zhanji was invited over.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to have peace today." When the Crown Princess saw him, she was so angry that she took several deep breaths to resist the urge to hit him.

"What's wrong with you, mother? Why are you so angry?" Zhu Zhanji acted as if he knew nothing.

"You still have the nerve to ask me why I'm so angry. What good thing have you done?"

"My son didn't do anything. He studied and went to class every day. He was very well behaved."

Seeing that he still didn't say anything, the Crown Princess asked again: "Didn't you leave the palace?"

"Oh, that's what mother is asking. Of course I did go out. I was just chatting about painting and calligraphy with my cousin. Is that nothing?" Zhu Zhanji continued to argue.

"And let's talk about painting and calligraphy. If that's all you do, then how come someone said you beat someone up for that Sun?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhanji knelt down without saying anything. He had kept his head down since he came in, and now he looked up. The Crown Princess saw that there was no need to say more, as a fight was confirmed and there was even a bruise on his face. The Crown Princess was so angry that she picked up the book on the table and threw it at him. Zhu Zhanji just took it without saying a word.

The Crown Princess became even angrier when she saw him like this. "Okay, you are so tough. Then why don't you tell me why you want to fight to solve the problem?"

"I just don't like that person."

"I heard that it was that person who made a move on Sun, so you hit him?"

"Mother, what nonsense did you listen to? How is this matter related to Sun? Mother, please don't wrongly accuse the girl. Ruoji has only been out of the house a few times, and she has nothing to do with the boy from the He family. The person who complained to mother has bad intentions." Zhu Zhanji hurriedly denied it and defended Sun Ruoji.

The Crown Princess almost laughed out of anger: "To be honest, I was a little skeptical about this matter just now, but now after hearing what you said, I think it is true. Look at you, what have you become now because of that woman? From today on, you will be confined to my house until you have thought it through."

"Mother, I've already said this, this matter has nothing to do with Ruoji. I was the one who caused the fight. If you want to beat me, punish me, or even confine me, I won't say a word. But you must not cause trouble for Ruoji." Zhu Zhanji kowtowed to the Crown Princess to admit his mistake.

"Today, I have made this clear. If Sun Ruoji wants to enter the palace, don't even think about it. She has already seduced you before anything has happened. Once she enters the palace, won't she be tempting the master?"

"Mother, how could you do this? You clearly promised grandmother that you would recommend Ruoji to the palace after this year."

"So what if I broke my promise? It was just a verbal promise, so what if it doesn't count? Tomorrow I will talk to your grandmother and send that Sun away as soon as possible. If she still stays in the capital, it will be a rebellion."

"Mother...I beg you not to...It's rare for me to like someone." Zhu Zhanji actually started crying as he spoke.

"Come here, take His Royal Highness back and keep a close eye on him. Apart from attending classes in the main hall and paying respects to the palace elders, he is not allowed to go anywhere else. You stay there and reflect on yourself."

"Mother..." Zhu Zhanji was pulled out.

Inside Qingyun Palace

After Zhu Zhanji watched them close the door, he still showed the same heartbroken look as before. He took out the handkerchief that he had wiped with ginger water from his sleeve and threw it away.

"Your Highness, why are you doing this? Now you are under house arrest by the Crown Princess and cannot even leave the palace. How can you see Miss Sun?"

“This is the result I want.”

"What, Your Highness did this on purpose?"

"Even you think I have feelings for Sun, let alone other people. Now this incident has happened. This matter should be a big deal."

"But why did Your Highness do this?"

"You don't need to know."

"By the way, go tell He Yunyue to spread the news that I was grounded and that I got into a fight."

"Yes." Wu Cheng couldn't understand what His Highness was going to do. He thought His Highness the Crown Prince was really in love with Miss Sun. It turned out that it was all to confuse others. Such a big scheme was set up. It seemed that Miss Sun would suffer in the future. But when did Miss Sun offend His Highness the Crown Prince? Oh, I don't understand. Just follow the instructions and let Miss He spread the news. No wonder the one who fought with His Highness the Crown Prince was a concubine from the He family's side room. It turned out to be a show.

"What are you thinking about? Go and do your work." Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but say after seeing that he hadn't done anything for a long time.
