The vicious supporting actor wants to be a good guy

Hearing Shen Haoran's question, Li Yu was stunned, and it took a long time for his brain to react, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Wait, huh?Hey -- why did the second prince know about the dilapidated alley!And why did he see through, he is not the real young master!

Is it so obvious?

Li Yu swallowed involuntarily, feeling that his throat was suddenly thirsty beyond words.

This, what can I do!Do you admit it directly?Abandon the darkness and turn to the light?

No, if it is discovered that he is not the real young master before he has gained Shen Haoran's trust, he doesn't know what kind of misfortune will be waiting for him.

I have already taken a risky move. If Shadow goes back and tells Empress Li what happened here, it may arouse Empress Li's suspicion. If Shen Haoran discovers her true identity again...

Your situation will be very difficult.

"I, I don't know what His Highness is talking about." Li Yu tried his best to restrain his tone, "I am indeed the Young Master of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If Your Highness doesn't believe it, you can ask someone in the Prime Minister's Mansion."

After all, his body belonged to the original owner.

"you are not."

Based on recent observations, Shen Haoran said firmly, "Maybe the body is the original one, but you are not."

Did this guess that the soul of the original owner was replaced?Why would he know?This... shouldn't it be?

Although Shen Haoran is extremely intelligent, he can't be so powerful, right?He was able to guess that his soul replaced the original Young Master.

"There is no such thing as soul-changing in this world. How could such an outrageous thing happen? Your Highness is overthinking it." Li Yu denied it.

"And how do you explain what you've done?"

"Then, haven't I changed my mind..." Li Yu was forced to ask and he didn't know how to answer, "This... this also needs to be explained? It's normal to lose my memory and not remember what kind of person I was. ?”

Shen Haoran paused, and asked the question he had always wanted to ask.

"Do you remember the eldest son?"

Eldest son?Why did you suddenly mention Eldest Young Master again?Does the cannon fodder of emotion still have a part to play?Isn't it just a supporting role to explain why the original owner was spoiled?

Li Yu didn't remember the eldest son, but he could only follow Shen Haoran's words, "My brother has been gone for many years, and there is no need for His Highness to always remember it."

"You really don't remember the eldest son?" He repeated again.

"..." Who is this eldest son, and why are you so attached to him.

Li Yu was a little helpless, and looked away, "Although it's very heartless to say so, my brother left early. After I lost my memory, I don't remember many things."

Naturally, he didn't remember the eldest son either.

"..." Shen Haoran stared at him for a long time, then suddenly tightened his wrist and pulled him towards him.

Li Yu didn't expect that he would suddenly pull close to him, so frightened that he froze, he could only stare blankly at the eyes that were as clear as cold water in front of him.

"Li Yu."

The gentle call was like looking at someone through him.

Breathing stopped for a moment.

"Your Highness, Your Highness?"

"Do you know how you got your name?"

...and why ask this question?The original owner's name must have been chosen by the author, but in the setting, it must have been chosen by the prime minister, or the prime minister's wife, right?

Li Yu opened his eyes, but did not answer.

Today's Shen Haoran, does he talk a lot unexpectedly?

Seeing that he didn't intend to answer, Shen Haoran said to himself, "The young master remembers, Li Ning?"

...Li Ning?Which character is this again?Could it be the name of the eldest son?Li Yu thought about it, and nodded smartly, "Of course I remember, my brother."

"……Your brother?"

Shen Haoran was startled, and was amused by his words, "Young Master, you even forgot your original name?"

Why!What is he talking about!I can't understand it at all!Li Yu was stunned in place, and suddenly realized, wait, the original name?Wasn't the original owner called "Li Yu" before?But "Li Ning"?

Why!Why add a horizontal line under the word "Ning"?Is this the original setting?Totally incomprehensible!

Seeing his surprised face, Shen Haoran couldn't help laughing, and explained in a gentle tone, "The young master's original name was Li Ning, but he changed his name to Li Yu after the eldest son died."

Feeling that this is a plot line that the original work has not clearly stated, Li Yu couldn't help asking, "My lord...I mean my brother, what is my brother's name?"

"Li Yu."

Thinking that he was calling him, Li Yu couldn't help but tilt his head in surprise, but he didn't wait for his reply, "Huh?"

Seeing that he was puzzled, Shen Haoran said clearly, "The eldest son's name is Li Yu."

Li Yu felt a heavy blow to his chest, he almost couldn't breathe, coughed so much, and unconsciously raised his voice, "Ahem! What! Eldest Young Master——"

The eldest son is also called Li Yu?Is the author of the original work so lazy because he really can't think of a name?No, it's impossible?

Why is the eldest son called "Li Yu"?And why did the original owner change his name to "Li Yu" after the eldest son died?

This is a dark thread that was never mentioned in the original work. Li Yu doesn't know the reason, let alone the buried fact.

The eldest son died by drowning. Could it be that the original owner changed his name to commemorate him?

No... In this kind of era, it is impossible to reuse the name of Aiko who died early, and the eldest son and the original owner's real names are so similar, it must not be intentional, and the eldest son is mentioned repeatedly, it must not be...

——The eldest son was actually killed, right?

The sudden thought made Li Yu gasp, his palms were covered with cold sweat, and he felt a thick fog shrouded in front of his eyes, without a clue.

Seeing his pensive appearance, Shen Haoran realized that he might have guessed wrong.

Because he was so similar to the eldest son, I mistakenly thought he was the eldest son. It can be seen that his reaction was surprising.

He didn't know who the eldest son was, and he couldn't be the eldest son.

Is it really just because of the similarity?After all, they are brothers, and it is normal to have a slight resemblance.

In other words... is he really the Young Master?

No, it's impossible, he is neither the eldest son nor the youngest son.

Li Yu took a deep breath, his heart was beating abnormally for some reason, "Your Highness, I have a question."

"Well, you said."

Li Yu wanted to ask about "Eldest Prince Li Yu", but he was afraid that the expression would not be clear, so he could only speak at his discretion.

"How did the eldest son die?"

"Drowning."

"Then why, I...will change my name to 'Li Yu'?"

Shen Haoran didn't know the answer to this question.

"I don't know."

Li Yu clenched his palms tightly. According to the plot of the original work, he felt that there were two possibilities.

The first one is because the prime minister and his wife felt sorry for the eldest son who died young, so they let the young master change his name, and together with the eldest son, pamper the original owner together. This is the most normal reason.

And the second kind... He remembered the crying and struggling cries for help in the previous dream.

If this is a dark line that the original has never mentioned, it can't be so simple.

The second possibility is that someone has always wanted the original owner to replace the eldest son, and deliberately named the original owner this name. After killing the eldest son, it is logical for the original owner to change his name and take away everything from the eldest son.

And this person... is most likely the prime minister's wife.

Li Yu took a deep breath and asked again, "Is the eldest son and I the same father?"

Shen Haoran paused, and pondered for a while, "I heard that the eldest son is the beloved son of the late Mrs. Li, and you are the second wife... that is, the only son of the prime minister's wife."

--really!

This blow was too great, Li Yu felt that he couldn't breathe in his chest, he couldn't help feeling a little dizzy, and fell to the side.

Seeing that something was wrong with him, Shen Haoran grabbed his waist, caught him who almost fainted, and the distance was close again.

"you……"

At this moment, Li Yu's mind was already full of information, and he had a splitting headache for a moment, he couldn't believe it, and he didn't notice the distance between himself and Shen Haoran at all.

If this is a dark line that the original work has never mentioned, then everything can be explained.

The beloved son of the deceased Mrs. Li - the eldest son Li Yu.

The second wife is the only son of the prime minister's wife, the young son Li Ning.

According to the character of the prime minister's wife, she will never tolerate being in the partial house, so she is very likely to frame Mrs. Li to death in order to obtain the position of the principal house, and then kill the eldest son, and then die young at a young age For reasons, he offered to let Li Ning change his name to replace the eldest son, gain the favor of the prime minister, and deliberately climbed to the position of the main house.

Of course, this is just a guess, but Mr. Li feels that although his guess is not the complete truth, it should not deviate too much from the truth.

If this is the case, then what is the purpose of arranging the role of the eldest son?

Li Yu couldn't understand this question.

"What are you thinking?"

Hearing Shen Haoran's question, Li Yu finally came to his senses and noticed the hand around his waist and the close distance.

The underwear, which was soaked because of falling into the river, conveyed the warmth of each other.

……Why?Why!Li Yu couldn't help taking a step back, but Shen Haoran didn't expect that he would back up, and he didn't let go of the hand around his waist, so he accidentally pushed him up.

Li Yu fell to the ground, his already dry hair loosened, and his eyes were full of panic and astonishment.

Shen Haoran's arm was around his waist, and because of inertia, his whole body was almost pressed up, but the other hand reacted in time, and patted the ground beside Li Yu, supporting his body not to press down.

Soft touch, warm body temperature.

Breathing, rapidity, heartbeat, acceleration.

"..." Shen Haoran opened his eyes slightly, stared at Li Yu under him, swallowed up and down his Adam's apple in a trance, withdrew the hand around his waist, took a big step to the side, and kept a distance.

"Feel sorry."

Only then did Li Yu come to his senses, he took a deep breath, his heart was about to explode.

He stood up slowly, and smiled, "Hahaha...it's just an accident, Your Highness doesn't need to worry about it."

That being said, even if I care too much, how can I ask the other party not to care!Li Yu secretly scolded himself for being an idiot in his heart.

Fortunately, the light wasn't particularly bright, so I shouldn't be able to see the blush on my face.

Help...how come no one has come to take them out of here!I don't want to be alone with Shen Haoran anymore!

Li Yu wants to cry but has no tears.

The rain outside didn't know when it stopped. For some reason, there seemed to be a slight sound of walking in the bushes.

Li Yu noticed the strangeness, and couldn't help but look out, and saw a vague figure moving outside.

——It was the shadow that fell into the river with them.
