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

"We were taken back home and adopted by Lord Yang Li in the snow and ice when we were little. We are orphans. Even Lord Yang Li hasn't investigated our background. How could you know?"

Zhou Chuxuan chuckled: "You two are really silly and cute. Of course he won't help you to really investigate, because he is the murderer who caused your family to be destroyed!"

"impossible!"

Hong Yue immediately shouted angrily, her eyes filled with rage: "Master Yang Li treats us like his own parents, how could he be a murderer? Zhou Chuxuan, don't slander me! Even if you say something fantastical, we won't believe you!"

"Don't believe it?"

Zhou Chuxuan took out a roll of cloth from his bosom and handed it to Hongyue, then untied the ropes on Hongyue's body: "Take a look for yourself, this is the news I sent back from the Western Regions!"

"The handwriting on this is all the handwriting of your Lord Yang Li. I believe you should be able to see it yourself, right?"

Hongyue and Canxue looked at the contents on the cloth, their faces changing wildly. Finally, they looked at each other, opened their mouths slightly, and almost couldn't believe that this was true.

However, it is indeed Yang Li's handwriting, and even the seal is exclusive to Yang Li, which is basically impossible to forge.

"I know it's hard for you to accept, and I won't force you to accept it!"

Zhou Chuxuan stood up and said, "From now on, you are truly free! If you want to stay, you can come find me in front. If you don't want to stay, you can leave now!"

"However, I suggest you not seek revenge now!"

When Zhou Chuxuan reached the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "Because relying on the strength of just the two of you, seeking revenge on Yang Li is like hitting a rock with an egg!"

After saying this, Zhou Chuxuan strode out of the woodshed.

Soon after, Hongyue and Canxue came forward and knelt at Zhou Chuxuan's door. "Your Highness, we are willing to follow you forever and never betray you!"

Zhou Chuxuan brought out a plate of fruit with a smile, then sat on the doorstep and began to eat. "But I may not necessarily help you get revenge. Are you sure you want to follow me?"

Hong Yue said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, you are the only one who has the strength to stand up to Yang Li! We believe that as long as we stay by your side, we will be able to take revenge sooner or later!"

Canxue gnashed her teeth and said, "Damn Yang Li, that beast in human form, he killed my parents and everyone in the village! And then he brought us back under false pretenses, raised us to adulthood, and trained us to be his elite assassins!"

"It's a scam, it's all a scam!"

Zhou Chuxuan handed the two halves of orange to the two of them and chuckled. "I can only offer a small token of comfort for your misfortune! However, you two are now grown-ups, and have been elite assassins by Yang Li's side for so many years. The least you should do is to have a heart as hard as stone!"

"And, forget the hatred!"

"Forget the hatred?"

Canxue couldn't help but look up at Zhou Chuxuan: "But, Your Highness, the ones who were killed were not your relatives. How can you ask us to forget the hatred? If your relatives were killed..."

Canxue was halfway through her words when Hongyue interrupted her by clapping her hands and signaling her with her eyes not to continue.

His sister was straightforward and sometimes spoke rashly. Now they were Zhou Chuxuan's subordinates. How could she speak to his Highness in such a questioning tone?

Zhou Chuxuan waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's okay, I understand your feelings, but you don't understand why I want you to let go of your hatred and forget about it for the time being!"

"Because hatred affects a person's judgment! Anger reduces a person's wisdom. If a person loses the most basic wisdom and judgment, he will be like a lamb to be slaughtered. The courage of a reckless man is useless!"

"Now, do you two understand?"

Hongyue and Canxue nodded slightly, clenched their fists tightly, and let their fingernails pierce into their flesh without realizing it.

Finally, the two of them seemed to have figured it out, and they raised their heads in unison: "Your Highness, we understand!"

"That's good, that's good!"

"Clap clap clap!"

Just as Zhou Chuxuan was about to say something, a burst of slapping sounds suddenly came from the wall.

Immediately afterwards, Canglang appeared on the top of the wall, with a sharp blade drawn from his hand, pressing it against Zhou Wuhen's neck.

But the latter was not at all flustered: "Your Highness has gained two more capable men. I am so envious!"

"The Thousand-Faced Young Master!"

Zhou Chuxuan chuckled softly and said, "I didn't expect you to be in the capital all this time! You truly deserve the title of Thousand Faces Young Master. Amazing, truly amazing!"

"Alright, Canglang, please step back!"

After receiving Zhou Chuxuan's order, Canglang put away his blade and disappeared on the roof.

Zhou Wuhen jumped down, looked at Hongyue and Canxue, and said with a smile: "Are these two Yang Li's men? Not bad, not bad, they are so beautiful!"

"Your Lord Yang Li is currently in the Western Regions, furious!"

"Ok?"

Even though they had temporarily put aside the hatred in their hearts, when they heard Yang Li's name, they couldn't help but look up and look at Zhou Wuhen.

"Alright, both of you, stand up. There's no need to kneel before me!"

Zhou Chuxuan waved his hand.

Hongyue and Canxue then stood up.

"From what you said, you know Yang Li's whereabouts and some information about him?"

Zhou Wuhen squatted on the threshold as if he were an old friend of Zhou Chuxuan. He took the fruit plate from Zhou Chuxuan's hand naturally and said, "Of course, and there is quite a lot of information. I know you are very interested, but I can't tell you now."

Zhou Chuxuan's mouth twitched: "Tell me, what are the conditions?"

"The condition is that I want to know the true method of creating equality for all beings!"

Zhou Wuhen looked at Zhou Chuxuan and gave a wry smile: "Although I got a lot of Equality of All Beings from Tongfu Inn and successfully dismantled them, I don't know how to make them!"

Zhou Chuxuan glanced at him in surprise. "The dignified Master Zhou Wuhen, renowned throughout the martial arts world, can't even figure out this little thing?"

Zhou Wuhen scratched his head. "Actually, sometimes you're quite mean! You know clearly that thing doesn't even belong here. How can you expect me to study it?"

"I've searched through military manuals from hundreds and thousands of years ago, but I haven't found a method to make it!"

"So, I still have to hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can teach me!"
