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

Chapter 167 The Dust Settles, Returning to the Position of Crown Prince

Zhou Wanjiang looked at Zhou Chuxuan's smiling face and felt extremely dangerous: "Sincerely, father is of course sincere!"

Now the Imperial Guards, the Imperial Guards, and the Fuling Army, the three largest forces in the capital, have all fallen into Zhou Chuxuan's hands. In other words, the entire capital is now controlled by Zhou Chuxuan. How can he say that he is not sincere?

Forget it, forget it, just keep your throne as emperor first and make plans later.

Anyway, Lotus Mountain is staying there and can't run away.

"good very good!"

Zhou Chuxuan looked at Xu Qinglong and said, "Father-in-law, I'm a little tired. I'll go back and rest first. I'll trouble you all to take care of the aftermath!"

"Congratulations to Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

Led by Xu Qinglong, everyone bowed and saluted to bid farewell to Zhou Chuxuan.

Returning to his palace, Zhou Chuxuan nervously looked at Xu Hanyan, who was lying on the bed with her eyes tightly closed. There were also several imperial doctors beside the bed.

"How is it?"

An older imperial physician stood up and said softly, "The Crown Princess was frightened earlier, and her injuries were so severe that she fell into a coma. Now, after our treatment, her injuries have probably stabilized!"

Zhou Chuxuan felt relieved after hearing this and sat down beside her: "You guys go out first, I'll stay with her for a while!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Finally, as dusk approached, Xu Hanyan slowly opened her eyes.

"Hanyan, you're awake!"

Zhou Chuxuan immediately held Xu Hanyan's hand, and the light in his eyes was no longer cunning and cold, but full of tenderness instead.

Xu Hanyan looked at Zhou Chuxuan for a long time, and at the same time reached out to touch the child in her belly. Only then did she feel relieved, her eyes filled with tears: "I thought, I thought you were really dead!"

Zhou Chuxuan gently wiped Xu Hanyan's face with a handkerchief and said with a smile, "How is that possible? Since the day you met me, have I ever done anything that was beyond my control?"

"I will be the emperor in the future, and you will be the empress. We haven't even achieved our goal yet, so why are you talking about life or death?"

Xu Hanyan chuckled softly and said, "What's the situation outside now? Yang Li and His Majesty..."

Zhou Chuxuan briefly explained the situation outside, then said with a hint of guilt: "Yang Li ran away, and I couldn't kill him this time! But I promise you, I will make sure he dies in the future!"

Xu Hanyan nodded gently, barely propped herself up, and leaned into Zhou Chuxuan's arms: "We... have a child too!"

"Yes! This is the future dragon seed!"

Zhou Chuxuan smiled and stroked Xu Hanyan's lower abdomen, and Xu Hanyan's fair cheeks immediately turned bright red.

Just as the two were about to make their next move, a knock on the door sounded outside: "Knock, knock, knock!"

"Your Highness, the people from Tongfu Inn are here!"

Xu Hanyan glanced at Zhou Chuxuan and smiled understandingly: "Go ahead, Your Highness, I'll sleep a little longer!"

"it is good!"

Zhou Chuxuan stood up and walked outside. Outside was a man covered in a cloak. "Your Highness, the chief leader said that the person behind Zhou Heng is still lurking in the capital. As for what he wants to do, we don't know yet!"

"Nothing?"

The man shook his head. "In order to find out the whereabouts of that person, Tongfu Inn has made great sacrifices. Many brothers died at her hands. Oh, and the leader asked me to tell you, it was a woman!"

"Woman! So amazing..."

Zhou Chuxuan pinched his chin lightly and thought: "Thank you, Chief!"

After the man left, Zhou Chuxuan called Han Bin and asked, "General Han, what's the situation with Zhou Wanjiang now?"

Han Bin bowed respectfully and said in a deep voice, "We have dispatched the Imperial Guards to closely monitor the palace! All of Zhou Wanjiang's actions are under our surveillance. We have also discovered that Zhou Wanjiang has found a body double who looks exactly like him, even his movements, mannerisms, voice and tone of voice are exactly the same!"

"If Canglang hadn't been there, none of us would have been able to tell who was real and who was fake!"

Zhou Chuxuan chuckled: "It seems that this old fox has made sufficient preparations in order to get to Lotus Mountain as soon as possible!"

"Your Highness, what should we do now? How should we deal with that fake Zhou Wanjiang?"

Zhou Chuxuan glanced at Han Bin, his eyes flashing with a cold chill: "General Han, you should know that only the dead can avoid all disasters!"

"Remember, treat his family well!"

"Yes!"

Zhou Chuxuan sighed slightly. If it was not necessary, he did not want to create a murder out of thin air. However, a person who could stand out and be indistinguishable from Zhou Wanjiang would definitely be a time bomb.

That night, Nangong Yanling and Murong Xue, who had been busy all day, supported each other and returned to the yard.

Murong Xue threw the armor aside and said, "Your Highness, you have to give us some compensation! We didn't even have time to rest all day!"

Zhou Chuxuan took an apple from Su Qiaoer's hand and threw it to Murong Xue: "Here, this is for you as compensation!"

Murong Xue's mouth twitched: "Your Highness, you have taken the throne of Crown Prince again, is there any need to be so stingy?"

Zhou Chuxuan sneered and did not answer Murong Xue. Instead, he came to Nangong Yanling and said, "Miss Nangong, take off your mask. I will apply medicine to you!"

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Your Highness!"

Nangong Yanling nodded slightly and took off the mask. The burn scars on her face had faded a little, and her whole face looked much better, not as hideous and terrifying as before.

Murong Xue exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, Your Highness, the effect of this prescription is so miraculous? It's only been one day and one night, and it's already healed so much?"

When Nangong Yanling heard Murong Xue's scream, she hurried into the house, sat in front of the bronze mirror, looked at her cheeks, and couldn't help but smile.

Before, she thought she would have to live with this ugly scar for the rest of her life, unable to take off the mask, and unable to have a normal relationship between men and women like other people.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Chuxuan helped her turn everything around.

Zhou Chuxuan followed him into the house and looked at the smiling Nangong Yanling. He said with a smile, "Don't worry, Miss Nangong. Your face will be back to normal in seven days at most!"

Nangong Yanling stood up, looked at Zhou Chuxuan for a long time, and suddenly knelt on one knee: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Hey, what are you doing? Get up!"

Zhou Chuxuan quickly helped him up.

"By the way, where are your people from Jiulong Mountain now?"

Nangong Yanling was slightly startled. "It's not far from the capital. Your Highness wants to formally recruit them into the imperial army?"

Zhou Chuxuan shook his head: "No, quite the opposite!"
