Chapter 75 The Battle Between True and False Identity

The morning sun streamed down the main room, bathing it in a soft golden glow. Ji Yun and Gu Yazhu sat at the main table, their expressions tinged with nervousness. At dawn, Ji Yun had begun rummaging through his bag, changing into several outfits. With each change, he asked Gu Yazhu, "How do you like this one? Does that one make me look refreshed?" He wanted to make a good impression on his son and daughter-in-law.

Ji Yun and Gu Yazhu are currently operating in the prefectural capital as "Shen Li" and "Shen Yeshi," attempting to approach Gu Yichen and Lu Ling'er. Since Gu Yichen and Lu Ling'er are being pursued by the prefect, they have taken on the identities of the temporarily missing sons of Doctor Shen Li, posing as Shen Kang and Shen Linshi, respectively, and have secluded themselves here. Gu Yichen, suffering from amnesia, only remembers the three months after Lu Ling'er rescued him. He has no recollection of who he is or how he ended up seriously injured and falling into the river.

Just then, soft footsteps were heard outside the main house. Mo Yan, accompanied by the six brothers Mo Xian, Mo Dong, Mo Nan, Mo Xi, and Mo Bei, walked in, their faces as cold as ice. These six claimed to be traveling merchants, but Ji Yun and Gu Yazhu had already seen through their identities.

It happened that Gu Yichen and Lu Linger had not gotten up yet today, so Ji Yun and Gu Yazhu seized the opportunity and invited Mo Yan and others to come and talk, trying to resolve the identity suspicions between the two sides and avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Mo Yan, have you guessed who my wife and I are?" Ji Yun raised his teacup and asked casually, with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

Mo Yan's expression remained unchanged, and he replied calmly, "I do have some guesses." He still maintained a calm and composed look, like a thousand-year-old iceberg, revealing the same coldness as the amnesiac Gu Yichen.

Ji Yun smiled, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes: "Tell me about it."

Mo Yan said calmly, "Your Excellency's identity must be a member of the royal family. Your Excellency's wife and the Empress of Kunning Palace are obviously twin sisters. Although they have disguised themselves, their demeanor is definitely not something that ordinary people can imitate. If my guess is correct, you are indeed like that."

Ji Yun raised his eyebrows and chuckled, his tone still relaxed: "Interesting inference. But I have never heard of any royal son being exiled to the common people."

Mo Yan lowered his head slightly, his attitude respectful: "I dare not make any rash assumptions. I am only loyal to my master and protect him and those he cares about. This is my duty. Everything else is irrelevant."

Ji Yun narrowed his eyes, and understood in his heart.

Mo Yan obviously knew that Ji Yun and Gu Yazhu had guessed that Gu Yichen was the amnesiac prince, otherwise he would not have been so subtle in making his position clear.

Seeing this, Gu Yazhu was already impatient. She glared at Ji Yun and said bluntly, "Have you had enough of this charade? Just speak frankly!" She had always been straightforward and hated the hypocrisy in officialdom.

Born into the Duke Dingguo's mansion, Gu Yazhu has been a lover of swordplay since childhood, possessing a bold and outgoing personality. She trained in the Xiaoyao Sect, cultivating a martial art that prioritizes both internal and external cultivation. Her internal cultivation technique, the "Phoenix Heart Secret," enhances her speed and strength while maintaining agility. Her unique skill, the "Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens," evokes the majestic and graceful movements of a phoenix spreading its wings. Each move seamlessly blends power and beauty, imbuing her martial arts with both offensive power and agility.

She was completely different from her twin sister, Luo Yaxue, a gentle and virtuous woman who now reigned as Empress Tianqi. Gu Yazhu, on the other hand, had longed for the life of the Jianghu from a young age and pleaded with her father to set her free. She navigated the Jianghu under her mother's surname, eventually meeting Ji Yun. However, after their marriage, she realized she hadn't truly escaped the constraints of power.

Ji Yun, whose true identity is the younger brother of Emperor Tianqi, Emperor Yuande, and the youngest son of Emperor Yuanqi, is known as Yun Xiaoling. He uses "Ji Yun" as his underworld alias, with "Ji" being taken from his mother's surname and "Yun" being a symbol of his royal family.

Yun Xiaoling has been training in the Hengshan School since childhood, reaching the pinnacle of martial arts. His martial arts combine both internal and external skills. His internal techniques, "Ape Somersault Cloud" and "Flowing Cloud Palm," allow for swift and agile movements, while his external techniques, "Returning Wind and Falling Wild Goose Sword" and "Hengshan Five Divine Swords," deliver swift and fierce attacks and defenses. Thanks to these skills, he has repeatedly achieved remarkable feats on the battlefield, earning him the nickname "Apocalypse War God" from the common people.

However, Yun Xiaoling's exceptional talent aroused the fear of his brother, Emperor Yuande. To prevent Yun Xiaoling from threatening the throne, Emperor Yuande appointed him "Prince of Jing'an," ostensibly granting him a high position but effectively keeping him away from the court and under surveillance. Despite this, Yun Xiaoling remained concerned about the people, quietly contributing to their well-being and earning widespread support from the people.

Gu Yazhu had long since lost sight of all this. She only knew that, regardless of Ji Yun's true identity, all she longed for was a free world. However, the current situation could not be underestimated. Whether it was Gu Yichen's amnesia or the identities of the six Mo Yan brothers, they all concealed unpredictable risks.
