Dressed as the prince's substitute? I took the throne

"what?"

Seeing Zhou Chuxuan turning around with a smirk on his face, Murong Xue was so angry that she wanted to blow the sugar man in her hand onto his face.

Gnashing her teeth, she said, "May I ask, Your Majesty, how can a woman like me be a man?"

Zhou Chuxuan was slightly stunned and looked Murong Xue up and down. Originally, this woman was about the same height as himself, and he wanted to disguise her and use her as his stand-in, but this woman had such a hot temper, it was basically impossible!

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything!"

Watching Zhou Chuxuan turn around and go into the inner room, Murong Xue gritted her teeth and complained about Zhou Chuxuan a thousand times in her heart. How could such a person be the crown prince or a prince? God must be blind!

"Sister Murong, Your Majesty, dinner is ready!"

Soon after, Su Qiaoer prepared a table full of food and invited the two to come out for dinner.

The three of them sat around the table, Su Qiao'er clinging to Zhou Chuxuan. "Your Highness, why don't you let Qiao'er go with you when you go to the coast this time? Qiao'er can take care of your life and cook for you!"

Zhou Chuxuan smiled slightly and patted Qiao'er's head: "Qiao'er, this trip to the coast is not for sightseeing. On the contrary, it is full of dangers, so you can't go!"

When Su Qiao'er heard about the danger, she immediately grabbed Zhou Chuxuan's sleeve tightly and said, "Your Highness, if it's so dangerous, can you please not go? Just stay in the capital. Even if you can't become the crown prince, you can still be well-fed and well-clothed as a young prince. What's more, you have Sister Murong and I to accompany you!"

"Cough cough!"

Murong Xue suddenly coughed violently twice: "I'm here to train the troops, not to accompany him!"

Zhou Chuxuan rolled his eyes at Murong Xue, then looked at Su Qiao'er: "Qiao'er, this time it's my father's mission, I have to go! Don't worry, Qiao'er, with General Murong protecting me, there won't be any big problems!"

Upon hearing this, Su Qiao'er immediately looked up at Murong Xue and said, "Sister Murong, you must protect the prince! I...I will cook you my best dishes when I come back!"

Murong Xue just nodded silently without looking up at the two of them: "Don't worry!"

As night fell, a figure quietly climbed over the back wall into the courtyard and sneaked towards Zhou Chuxuan's room.

However, just as he touched the window frame, Murong Xue suddenly appeared from the shadows and kicked him to the ground, wailing, "Stop! Stop! I'm Erhu!"

Zhou Chuxuan, upon hearing the sound, immediately went out and lit the torch at the door. Looking at Erhu, who was subdued on the ground, he couldn't help but chuckle, "General Murong, let go! It's Erhu, I called him here!"

Murong Xue then let go of Erhu and said coldly, "Since it was the prince who invited you, why didn't you go through the main gate instead of sneaking over the wall?"

Zhou Chuxuan's mouth twitched, and he stepped forward to help Erhu up: "Erhu, go into the house and wait for me first!"

Then, he walked to Murong Xue, put the orange in his hand into her hand, and said softly: "General Murong, sometimes, brain is a good thing!"

After saying that, he gently patted Murong Xue's shoulder.

Watching Zhou Chuxuan's leaving figure, Murong Xue stood there in a daze for a while before she realized belatedly: "You said you have no brains?"

inside the room.

Zhou Chuxuan and Erhu sat opposite each other. The dim candlelight made their figures look even more mysterious. Su Qiaoer, who was lying on the bed in the corner, couldn't help but curl up.

"Your Highness, are you sure you really want to create a double? Can you keep up with the large group?" Erhu frowned. "It's easy to create a double, but it's very difficult to train it to be indistinguishable from the real thing!"

Zhou Chuxuan nodded: "I thought of this too! But, I just want to show them this fake, the flaws! The people behind Yang Li will reveal their flaws and even take the initiative to look for me!"

"Also, how are the people I asked you to send out to investigate? Have you found any news about the Fuling Army?"

Erhu shook his head: "According to this time calculation, they should still be on their way. It will probably take two days after we set off for their news to come back!"

Zhou Chuxuan unfolded the map and spread it on the table. Using the dim candlelight, he pointed to a city and said, "This is a large city on the coast, Qinzhou! It's said that this place has the most serious banditry. Let's go there first!"

"My Lord, do you need me to arrange anything?"

"You go before night..."

After arranging everything, Zhou Chuxuan was just about to go to bed when he heard a muffled bang coming from the yard, followed by the sound of fists and kicks.

"Damn it, won't let me sleep?" Zhou Chuxuan cursed inwardly, put on his clothes and went out.

Under the bright moonlight, the two women were fighting with each other. They were agile and fierce in their moves. Every move was full of ruthlessness. If these two were placed on the battlefield, they would be regarded as vanguard generals!

Zhou Chuxuan looked carefully and saw that one of them was Murong Xue and the other was the girl wearing a fox mask from last night. In a blink of an eye, the two had exchanged dozens of moves, with no clear winner.

Seeing Zhou Chuxuan coming out, the masked girl hurriedly stopped and chuckled, "King Xiaoyao not only has a beautiful woman by his side, but she's also a beautiful woman with great martial arts skills!"

Murong Xue's eyes flashed with coldness. She drew her sword from her waist and was about to attack again, but was stopped by Zhou Chuxuan: "General Murong, please step back! I have something to discuss with this girl!"

The masked girl smiled slightly, walked to Zhou Chuxuan with light lotus steps, put her hands behind her back, and smiled faintly: "Your Highness, this subordinate of yours is really a martial arts master. I admire him, I admire him!"

"Okay, it was a misunderstanding! General Murong, go back to sleep!"

Looking at the closed door, Murong Xue bit her lip hard. This guy is really attractive to women. He just divorced the Crown Princess, and now there is such a beautiful and martial arts-skilled person coming to his door.

Inside the room, Zhou Chuxuan's voice was neither happy nor sad: "My lady, we have already parted ways once. Why, do you want to do it again?"

"Or do you think you can be my opponent alone?"

The masked girl nodded slightly. "Don't be offended, Your Highness. I was rude before! I apologize to Your Highness today!"

"No need to apologize. If you have something to say, just say it. I still need to sleep!" Zhou Chuxuan yawned.

The masked girl hesitated for a while, and in front of Zhou Chuxuan's astonished gaze, she slowly took off the mask. The face she revealed immediately made him tremble all over.

There was no beautiful face under the mask, but instead a hideous face that had been burned. At first glance, it was enough to scare people into breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Your Majesty, do you want to know why?"
