I just want to rob you of your luck

Zhou Yixuan always felt a little uneasy on the way and couldn't help asking: "Jiu'er, how long will it take us to get to Shangjing?"

Lin Jiuer said softly, "We will probably arrive tomorrow. Let's hurry on. It's getting late. We need to find a place to rest and set off again at daybreak. Don't worry, Your Highness."

Zhou Yixuan felt relieved and said gently: "Jiu'er, when there is no one around, just call me by my name. There is no need to be so polite between you and me."

Lin Jiuer thought, of course I won’t be polite to you.

She chuckled happily, "I know, Yixuan."

The carriage drove for about an hour and then stopped.

"Yixuan, we've arrived at a farm. You take a rest in the carriage while I go down to find a place to stay."

Zhou Yixuan now completely trusted Lin Jiuer and agreed readily.

After all, Lin Jiuer is going to marry him in the future and will depend on him for the rest of her life, so of course she won’t do anything that would harm him.

The carriage stopped at the door of a farmer's house in a village.

Lin Jiuer knocked on the door, and soon the wooden door opened, revealing an old man's face.

He looked Lin Jiuer up and down warily, and realizing he didn't know her, he asked coldly.

"Who are you looking for? You knocked on the wrong door." He said and was about to close the door.

Lin Jiuer recognized at a glance that the old man had a pale face and no beard and was a eunuch.

It seemed that she had found the right place. She pushed the door open and showed the jade pendant in her hand.

Then he whispered, "I have something to ask Master Ba."

When the old man saw the jade pendant, his face changed drastically and his expression changed several times. He felt uneasy and didn't know why they were found after hiding here for many years.

"Don't worry, old man. I have no ill intentions. On the contrary, I am here to help Master Ba."

The old man was silent for a moment, and seeing that the other person was just a little girl, he finally opened the door and let Lin Jiuer in.

Although it was dark and I couldn't see the situation in the yard clearly, I could still feel the low adobe house and the narrow courtyard.

There was a dim candlelight in the window of the main room among the three rooms, and it seemed that the person was in this room.

The old man went in first and reported something, then came out after a while to invite Lin Jiuer in.

Lin Jiuer didn't hesitate and walked in directly.

A man was sitting on a small couch in front of the window, reading a book, with an oil lamp on a small table in front of him.

Lin Jiuer observed the man carefully and found that he looked 80% similar to Zhou Yixuan, but he was thinner.

The furnishings in the house were simple and almost no different from those of an ordinary farmer's home.

The man looked up at Lin Jiuer and was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the person who wanted to see him would be such a young and beautiful woman.

"I wonder what the girl wants from me?"

"Master Ba, are you willing to live here forever? I am here to help you take back everything that belongs to you."

Lin Jiuer's straightforward statement shocked both the man and the old man, and then they looked at Lin Jiuer as if she were a lunatic.

Zhou Yichen felt regretful. How could such a nice-looking girl speak nonsense?

But he was more curious about how this woman found him.

"Since you know my identity, you should also know that I died twenty years ago and should not appear again, so what you said is impossible to accomplish."

Lin Jiuer's eyes were blazing and her tone was firm:

"You are also a prince, but your twin brother Zhou Yixuan lives an upright life and now has a wife and concubines. He is so happy, while you can only hide in this remote place and live the life of a farmer. This is not fair. Don't you want to take his place? I can help you!"

Zhou Yichen still didn't believe it, because no matter how he thought about it, it was impossible.

"Girl, this matter cannot be resolved with just a few words from you. I will pretend that I have not heard what you said today. Please go back, girl."

He had already started planning to move. Now that his identity had been exposed, and looking at the crazy look of this woman, it would be only a matter of time before she would get him into trouble.

Lin Jiuer reluctantly took out a jade pendant, knowing that her words were not enough.

"You can take a look at this. This old man should recognize this item. This is a jade pendant that only the prince of Nanmo Kingdom has. It belongs to your brother Zhou Yixuan.

He is outside now and I have him under my control. I can help you replace him and return to the Seventh Prince's Mansion. From now on, you will be the Seventh Prince Zhou Yixuan."

Zhou Yichen took the jade pendant, took a look at it, and exchanged glances with the old man.

Seeing the other party nod, he stood up suddenly: "Are you serious? Zhou Yixuan is outside?"

Lin Jiuer saw that he had almost believed it, and nodded quickly: "I'll bring him in, don't make any noise, he is blind now, don't worry about him seeing it,

I will explain the details to you later. Just know that I have a grudge against him and the Seventh Prince's Consort, and I have no ill will towards you."

Zhou Yichen's indifferent expression finally showed a look of panic.

But he did not stop Lin Jiuer's behavior, and he had some expectations in his heart.

Wait until Lin Jiuer goes out.

The old man on the side looked at Zhou Yichen a little worriedly: "Master, if what the girl said is true, do you want to go back?"

Zhou Yichen only felt his heart beating wildly uncontrollably. He was twenty years old and had never seen his parents.

He always thought that he was Tao Bo's grandson and that his parents died in an accident.

It wasn't until he was ten years old that Tauber told him the truth.

It turned out that he was the son of the current emperor. His mother was born a palace maid and was taken into the harem by the emperor because of her beauty.

She was favored for a period of time and was later promoted to Lipin. Later, she became pregnant.

As a result, she gave birth to twins, and there has always been a legend in Nanmo country that twins are unlucky.

The first-born child can be kept, but the later-born child must be dealt with, otherwise it will bring disaster to the family.

After the emperor found out, he only announced to the public that the eighth prince had died unexpectedly, and ordered Zhou Yichen to be dealt with and sent away for a random burial.

But Concubine Li couldn't bear to see her son being killed, so she bribed the executioners and arranged for her trusted eunuch Xiao Taozi to go out and take care of Zhou Yichen.

Because of this incident, the emperor gradually became estranged from Concubine Li and also disliked her seventh prince, Zhou Yixuan.

Concubine Li was always thinking about her son who was outside the palace, but she couldn't visit him, so she could only secretly send someone to deliver some silver, money and food.

Because of her depressed mood and lack of favor, her health gradually deteriorated, and she passed away when Zhou Yixuan and his brothers were two or three years old.

From then on, Zhou Yixuan could only live in the prince's residence, and lived cautiously, while Zhou Yichen had no one to take care of him anymore, and he and Tao Bo lived a very difficult life.

Originally Zhou Yichen thought that he would have to live a mediocre life like this in his life, but suddenly someone told him that they could help him take back everything that belonged to him, how could he not be tempted?

Zhou Yichen looked at Uncle Tao: "Uncle Tao, that girl is right. We are both princes, so why should I have to live like a stink bug that cannot stand the light? I want to go back and take back everything that belongs to me!

Tao Bo felt emotional in his heart. Didn't he often fantasize about the Eighth Prince being able to restore his status as a prince?

At this time, the door opened and Lin Jiuer walked in supporting a man.

Zhou Yichen and Tao Bo quickly looked towards the man's face.
