Lou Tingyu noticed that Huo Changhe had a strong aura and did not conceal his murderous intent.

Moreover, he called himself "this king."

Lou Tingyu also knew that this was in Youcheng, and there was only one person who could call himself the King.

Lou Tingyu has supernatural powers and knows some martial arts, but his fighting skills are not enough compared to Huo Changhe.

What's more, he is injured now and is even more unable to resist.

Lou Tingyu was alert: "The prince has returned, but is there anything wrong?"

Huo Changhe's eyebrows and eyes were cold, and there was a faint cold light between his lightly hanging fingers, like a willow leaf dart.

Lou Tingyu fully believed that if he did anything wrong, the willow leaf dart would shoot into his body without hesitation.

He was also a person who had suffered torture and abuse. Mr. Mo's methods were endless, but he was not afraid when facing Mr. Mo, because he knew that Mr. Mo would not really let him die, but had something in mind.

But Huo Changhe is different.

Huo Changhe did not say any threatening or cruel words, but there was an air of tolerant disapproval all around him.

Lou Tingyu realized this and sighed, "If your Majesty wants to know anything, just ask."

Huo Changhe wanted him to have this attitude.

"At that time, I said that the princess was not the daughter of the Yan family, and her biological parents were someone else. Your expression at that time told me that you knew the inside story."

It was actually for this.

Lou Tingyu was slightly surprised.

Huo Changhe noticed that his tone was even colder, "Why? Are you surprised by what I said?"

Lou Tingyu laughed to himself: "To be honest, I thought the prince would ask about something big, such as my special ability, or what I can do for the prince. I didn't expect..."

Huo Changhe interrupted him: "For this king, the princess's affairs are of great importance."

Lou Tingyu's smile faded and he bowed again: "Yes."

"Go ahead." Huo Changhe tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers. "Don't beat around the bush."

Lou Tingyu said solemnly, "As the God-Binding Envoy of the Yan Clan, I naturally know something about the Yan Clan's affairs. However, what the prince wants to ask is about the clan leader's secret. I only know one part of it, not the other."

"Just tell me what you know, I will be able to tell the difference."

Having said this, Lou Tingyu did not say any more to prepare the situation.

"The old clan leader has a wife and a concubine. The concubine... Strictly speaking, she is not a concubine. She is fostered in the old clan leader's mansion. It was the lady who rescued her and brought her back to the mansion. She wanted to help her find her relatives and send her away. Unexpectedly, one day a monk passing by said that she came with a destiny."

Huo Changhe remained calm but sneered in his heart, what destiny? It was nothing but an old drama, the lady saved the woman in distress out of kindness, but the woman was ungrateful and had an affair with the master of the house.

He had heard too many scenes like this. Yinding and his friends alone had told many versions of the story.

Lou Tingyu continued, "The monk said that she will give birth to a girl with heterochromatic pupils. After the girl is born and grows up, the destiny will come."

Huo Changhe doesn't believe in these ghost and god stories. As for the monks, the abbot is the same, and he is the famous Master Abbot.

"Then the woman stayed in the mansion? She gave birth to a child for the clan leader?"

Lou Tingyu seemed not to notice the slight sarcasm in his words and nodded, "Indeed, she said that to repay the clan leader's kindness."

"It was Madam who saved her. What favor did the clan leader give her?" Huo Changhe said calmly, "Go on."

"A year later, she did give birth to a girl. She also had heterochromia. One eye was black and the other was blue."

"According to what the monk said at the time, this girl needs to be raised by the wife of the first wife. At this time, the wife had just given birth to twins. The eldest son is a young master, and the second daughter is..."

The sarcasm in Huo Changhe's heart froze in an instant, and coldness flashed in his eyes. Under the dim candlelight, murderous intent suddenly appeared.

Lou Tingyu's throat tightened and he was a little hesitant to say the following words.

"Say!"

"The second daughter is the eldest daughter, but the two girls must be swapped," Lou Tingyu said with a little cold sweat on his forehead, "The eldest daughter was taken away, and the woman was a little weak after giving birth. She couldn't take care of the eldest daughter, so she was handed over to the maid in the room to take care of her."

"Unexpectedly, for some reason, a fire broke out. Everyone in the courtyard was in a panic and busy putting out the fire. After the fire was over, they found that the young lady was missing."

"There has been no news since then."

Lou Tingyu glanced at Huo Changhe and lowered his voice slightly: "At that time, I heard what the prince said about the princess's life experience... and I guessed whether the princess might be the child."

"The princess has special abilities, which every generation of the Yan family has. She doesn't even know who her biological parents are. In addition, she..."

Lou Tingyu's throat rolled, and she met Huo Changhe's cold gaze, pursing her dry lips: "Now the young master has grown up, and she looks 70% like him."

Huo Changhe laughed briefly: "When you first met the princess, you saw her face, but you didn't show any surprise. If you really were like that, you shouldn't have been indifferent at the time."

Lou Tingyu smiled bitterly: "Your Highness is wise, what you said is very true. However, Your Highness does not know that the Yan family is different from ordinary people, and they also have some secret methods that are not passed on to others."

"My face, for example, is not my own face."

These words made Huo Changhe's heart skip a beat.

In fact, when Huo Changhe first met him, he had looked at him carefully. There were many masters of disguise, and he had only one, Bei Bei, whose skills were beyond compare.

Who can guarantee that others don’t have it?

So, he took a close look at the man's face first.

There is no disguise on the face.

Now, he said, his face was not his face.

Huo Changhe covered his eyes in surprise: "What do you mean?"

Lou Tingyu said: "I just said that the Lou family and the Bai family are loyal subordinates of the Yan family. They are willing to give up their lives, let alone their faces."

"The head of the Yan family has several people around him who look similar to him, the so-called stand-ins, and I am one of them."

"However, we are not using an ordinary disguise technique, but a secret technique. We will select people from the two families who have similar bone structure to the next family head and send them to the next family head. A magician who knows this secret technique will always pay attention to the changes in our appearance and bone structure, and then modify them little by little according to the appearance of the next family head."

The blood in Huo Changhe's body turned slightly cold. He had never heard of this secret technique.

Several children were controlled by people who kept an eye on their changes. Then, a pair of hands were used to carefully depict, change, and correct their appearance until they all had an extremely similar face.

Just hearing it and imagining that scene makes me feel creepy.

Huo Changhe suddenly felt a little fortunate that Yan Ruyu did not grow up in such a Yan family.

"So, your face is the appearance of the current head of the Yan family?"

Lou Tingyu nodded: "Indeed."
