The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

Of course, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang cannot show their true colors. After all, Xiao Lou’s face has been publicly shown at the birthday party, and there are many related reports in the news. Almost everyone in the Luoke Empire can recognize this prince, even now. In a foreign country, there is no guarantee that they will be recognized.

Fortunately, he and Yu Hanjiang each have a [Mask] card, which allows them to pretend to be characters at will, which is equivalent to pinching their faces at will.

Xiao Lou turned himself into a 20-year-old college student who just graduated, and Yu Hanjiang turned himself into an intern. Both of them looked young, which was in line with what Edwin called an "intern doctor" character set.

At noon the next day, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang, who had put on a disguise, came to St. Paul's Hospital.

The two wore white coats with the intern's name tags on their chests. They quickly passed the inspection at the entrance of the hospital and entered the obstetrics and gynecology building. They found the room where Dr. Edwin was on duty.

Professor Edwin was sorting out the cases. After seeing the two of them, he didn't ask any more questions, and said, "Just follow me and study."

Xiao Lou glanced at the case information on his LCD screen - Xiao Rou has been pregnant for three months, everything is in a stable condition, and she is still pregnant with twins.Originally scheduled for an examination next month, Xiao Rou suddenly made an appointment ahead of time, apparently to let Xiao Lou and the others find a chance to sneak into the hospital so that they could meet her.

At [-]:[-] in the afternoon, Professor Edwin left the outpatient office, brought two "interns" to the diagnosis and treatment area, and asked them to hide in a VIP examination room.

After a while, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang heard a familiar voice coming from their ears - it was Xiao Rou and Prince Herman who had arrived.

Xiao Judao: "Professor, please give me another examination. In the past few days, I always feel stuffy in my heart and stomach, and I can't sleep well at night, and I always have insomnia."

Herman frowned and said, "You don't feel well, why didn't you tell me?"

Xiao Rou said softly, "I don't want you to worry."

Herman said, "Professor, is her condition serious?"

Professor Edwin comforted: "The princess may have a strong reaction in the early stages of pregnancy. Don't worry too much. The results of the last inspection are all normal. I will give you a comprehensive examination today. Please come with me."

Herman wanted to follow, but the professor stopped him and said: "You wait in my office for a while, the examination room of the obstetrics and gynecology department is not convenient for family members to enter, and I will call you later when I perform abdominal color ultrasound for the princess, you You can use the four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound to see the two babies."

Herman didn't think too much, walked over with a smile and kissed Xiao Rou's forehead, and said, "I'll wait for you outside."

Xiao Rou was helped into the examination room by the gray-haired old professor.

As soon as she entered the room, she met a pair of clear and bright eyes. The man was wearing a white coat and looked like a young student who had just graduated, with ordinary facial features.

Xiao Rou was startled: "You are..."

Professor Edwin said, "Princess, they came to see me last night."

Xiao Rou understood: "Professor, let me talk to them alone."

The old professor nodded and said: "I'll give you 10 minutes, and I'll try to hold the prince back."

After he left, Xiao Rou took a step forward, stared into Xiao Lou's eyes and said, "Xiao Lou, is that you?"

Xiao Lou took off his mask, smiled and said, "Sister, long time no see."

The young man in front of him had handsome features and a demeanor, and he could vaguely see what his father looked like when he was young.

Xiao Rou grabbed his hand excitedly, her voice trembling slightly: "Why did you come here? It's dangerous for you to do this! You don't know that there are still in the palace..." She paused, her eyes full of Struggling, as if hesitating whether to speak or not.

Xiao Loudao: "Is there a prince who looks exactly like me?"

Xiao Rou's eyes widened: "How do you know?"

Xiao Lou said calmly, "I've seen them before."

Xiao Rou's face was pale, and her hands were tightly clenched by her sides.

Xiao Lou Wen said: "Sister, what do you know, can you tell me? Am I copied too?"

Xiao Rou raised her head and looked at the handsome young man in front of her. Her fingers trembled slightly and stroked Xiao Lou's forehead. Xiao Lou didn't dodge until her fingertips stopped at the hairline in the upper left corner of Xiao Lou's forehead.

She said softly, "You are my brother."

Xiao Lou was puzzled: "How did my sister tell the difference?"

Xiao Rou's gaze was very gentle, and she choked up and said, "Concubine Mother is not in good health, so I was the one who took care of you during the years you were born. Once, due to my negligence, I accidentally knocked over the cup and used The hot water scalded you, you were less than three years old at that time, and you kept crying, I hugged you and coaxed you, but no matter how I coaxed you, it was useless, I was terrified..."

She gently touched a small patch of black on Xiao Lou's forehead: "After your injury here healed, there was a scar left. I was worried that the scar would be ugly. If I send you for plastic surgery, I will definitely be scolded by my father. So I secretly found a good tattoo artist and tattooed the scar black. I usually can’t see it when it’s covered by my hair, but when I lift my hair up, it will be very clear. Only I know the nail-sized tattoo.”

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other and suddenly realized.

On the day of the birthday party, His Royal Highness attending the party had his hair styled very delicately, revealing a smooth forehead with a high hairline and no trace of tattoos at all.Therefore, Xiao Rou knew at a glance that it was not her real brother.

Xiao Lou has been taken care of by her since he was born, and she is the one who knows Xiao Lou best.

What's more, it was a tattoo left by her.

Hearing that Xiao Lou is not a clone, but the real prince, Yu Hanjiang couldn't help feeling a little complicated—no matter what identity Xiao Lou is, of course he will protect Xiao Lou, but since Xiao Lou is the real prince, why the engagement banquet, His Majesty won't allow him to attend birthday parties and various important occasions?

Xiao Lou also thought of these doubts, took a deep breath and said, "When did my sister know the existence of replicants?"

Xiao Rou said with a pale face: "When you were five years old, I accidentally saw some terrible things. You were too young at the time, so I didn't dare to tell you. My mother had been recuperating for a few years, so I didn't dare to tell you. She said, afraid of irritating her... I have been trying to find a way these years, but there seems to be some agreement between Herman and my father. Since I married him, he has been secretly sending people to monitor my movements. It's hard to get in touch with you, let alone see you."

Hearing her choked voice, Xiao Lou's heart softened, and he said softly: "Sister, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault. I've grown up, tell me everything you know, and I will find a way of."

Xiao Rou nodded, and said: "Not long after your fifth birthday, one day, your father suddenly called you over, and I followed secretly out of curiosity, and then I found a man in a white coat entering the palace, twitching You were bleeding a lot. You were in a coma at the time, and I don't know what he was trying to do with your blood."

Thinking of the scene she witnessed back then, Xiao Rou couldn't help but tremble all over: "After a while, I went to see my mother in the Imperial Central Hospital, and saw the doctor who came to draw your blood that day again. I always felt that the doctor was a little strange, so I Out of curiosity, he knocked out the nurse who was with him, put on a mask, pretended to be a nurse, and sneaked into the laboratory."

Xiao Lou whispered: "Then what? Did you see the replicant?"

Xiao Rou nodded: "Many five-year-old children soaked in the nutrient solution look exactly like you!"

Xiao Lou imagined that scene for a while, and couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

Xiao Rou clasped her head in her hands and said in a broken voice: "I almost fainted from fright and ran away in a hurry. I was afraid that I would be silenced if I knew something I shouldn't know, so I kept pretending that nothing happened. Not long after, My father suddenly proposed to marry me to the Crown Prince of the Azure Empire, and my mother was recuperating at the time, so I had no choice but to agree..."

Her eyes were full of tears, she looked at Xiao Lou, choked up and said: "I'm sorry, Xiaolou, my sister can't stay in the palace to protect you, I'm a girl who has no one to rely on, I was only 20 years old at the time, I I didn’t dare to say anything, I was really too scared, and I had nightmares every night during that time.”

"It doesn't matter, anyone else can do better than my sister." Xiao Lou gently pressed her shoulder, and said gently: "I lost a lot of memories when I was five years old. What happened that year?" ?”

Xiao Rou's face was pale, and she clenched her fists: "I, I don't know, but I guess, those five-year-old copy children like you must have an important purpose. Otherwise, why would they copy so many identical children? Where is the prince?"

Xiao Lou's face changed slightly: "So many? How many did you see back then?"

Xiao Rou didn't really want to recall that horrible scene, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Hundreds of them, the laboratory is neat and tidy, full of nutrient solution for raising children, those children... some of them can still laugh, laugh Looks just like you."

The hairs on Xiao Lou's back stood on end, and he said in a deep voice, "In other words, I am the real prince who was brought up by my sister. The scar and tattoo on my forehead were left by my sister, and my father didn't even know about it. When I was five years old, Your Majesty copied hundreds of princes with my blood? What exactly does he want?!"
