"May I have your name?"

Concubine Yu asked her, stepping forward to look at Shen Jiaojiao, seeing her face clearly under the lights and decorations on New Year's Eve, and remembering what happened many years ago -

If her daughter were still alive, she should be this old now, right?

Shen Jiaojiao bowed, "Your servant Jiaojiao is the new disciple of Doctor Liang."

“Jiaojiao…”

Concubine Yu murmured the name and asked, "Where are you from?"

Shen Jiaojiao was in mixed emotions, where was she from?

She didn't even know where she was from.

She grew up in Northern Qi, but the Fourth Prince said that she was from Southern Chu. But these were not enough to bring her peace of mind and help her find her true home. In the end, she could only say, "I am an orphan. I have been wandering around for so many years and I don't even know who I am."

"What a poor child."

Concubine Yu sighed, "If my daughter were still alive, she would be your age."

As she spoke, she looked at Shen Jiaojiao, “Jiaojiao, since you are the disciple of Doctor Liang, you will definitely walk around the palace often in the future. Come to my palace when you have time. I live over there.”

"good."

Shen Jiaojiao looked at the palace in the distance, her heart trembling.

That is the bedroom of Concubine Yu.

She looks exactly like Concubine Yu!

No wonder the Fourth Prince repeatedly reminded her to cover her face after entering the palace and not to go to the harem!

I can't tell you her true identity...

The Fourth Prince's Mother and Concubine Yu don't get along...

The brief exchange caused a storm in Shen Jiaojiao's heart.

She left quickly and walked towards the Imperial Hospital.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Are you lost?" The Fourth Prince was standing at the door of the Imperial Hospital. When he saw her coming, he smiled gently.

Shen Jiaojiao had mixed feelings and shook her head, “No, I felt a little unwell on the way, so I walked a little slower. Your Highness, please wait a little longer.”

"Let's go out with Doctor Liang."

The Fourth Prince didn't say much. After glancing at Shen Jiaojiao, he turned and entered the backyard.

Doctor Liang came forward and said, "Let's go to my place. This place won't work."

The fourth prince nodded.

This time, he came to see Doctor Liang under the pretext of getting medicine, and he had no intention of having Shen Jiaojiao's face changed in the Imperial Hospital. There were too many people in the Imperial Hospital and it would be difficult to do it.

The three of them left from the back door of the Imperial Hospital together and went to an alley outside the palace.

After entering the residence of Doctor Liang, the Fourth Prince asked, "Her identity was exposed in Northern Qi, and she needs to change her face when she returns. With Doctor Liang's current medical skills, how long will it take?"

Doctor Liang stepped forward, took off the veil on Shen Jiaojiao's face, looked her up and down, and smiled, "Very good bone structure, but it looks too familiar."

The fourth prince smiled and said, "Yes, there are many people in the world who look alike."

Doctor Liang's eyes flashed with a hint of mystery, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. "With such a good bone structure, there is no need to make a big move. With the medicine I recently refined, it will only take seven or eight days at most."

"In seven or eight days, she will be a different person."

He smiled and took out a small box.

There was something squirming inside, which made Shen Jiaojiao feel sick and almost vomited——

She no longer needs to play Shen Jiaojiao and no longer takes medicine, so her body shape is a little different from when she was in Northern Qi. She is a little taller and more mature.

It just seems morbid.

After all, taking medicine over the years has changed her body's original state, causing relatively large changes in the circulation of qi and blood and various parts of the body.

Her nausea and vomiting problems did not improve much.

"Feeling sick?"

Doctor Liang asked with a smile, but quickly said: "Do you know that except for this thing, there is no medicine that can make you return to normal within half a year? But it can."

"What is this?"

Shen Jiaojiao’s face turned pale.

"insanity."

Doctor Liang did not hide it, "It can help your skin and flesh heal quickly and regenerate, and it can also relieve the remaining pain in your body. It is your blessing to be its owner."

Shen Jiaojiao wanted to refuse.

Because she had a fear of this thing, she felt very uneasy.

"You have no choice," the Fourth Prince looked at her, "I'm not threatening you, but your own body won't allow it. Over the years, too many lesions have remained in your body. If these lesions cannot be cured, you will be exposed quickly even if you go back."

Shen Jiaojiao: “…”

She was speechless.

Finally, I could only take a deep breath and say, "Okay."

Doctor Liang smiled, "You don't have to be too scared. I'm a doctor. Even if I raise a Gu, it won't harm anyone. I just want to cure you."

But his eyes were not as kind as he said.

Shen Jiaojiao clenched her fists.

Yes, she had no choice.

During the Northern Qi Dynasty, she was a spy of Southern Chu, so everyone in the Northern Qi Dynasty hated her and she lived like a maggot in a gutter.

But after returning to Nanchu, things weren't much better.

The Fourth Prince told her that she was a meritorious official of Northern Qi and that once she achieved success, he would ask the Emperor to make her a princess.

But now, if she doesn't listen to the Fourth Prince, death will be waiting for her.

She was unfamiliar with the place and had no power to resist.

Shen Jiaojiao took a deep breath and could only move forward for now, but she decided to find a chance to meet Concubine Yu before leaving.

"If you agree, let's start now."

Doctor Liang looked at her with some excitement in his eyes, which made Shen Jiaojiao uncomfortable, but she still lay on the bed obediently and drank the Ma Fei San.

There was the sound of fireworks outside.

Everyone was bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, and she was there too.

But she didn't know where this road would lead to.

The few guesses in her mind made her feel horrified.

…

dawn.

Rong Yan sent Ruyi back.

Ruyi was a little tipsy, and talked about Chen Jiaojiao, "The Fourth Prince went to investigate the case in Qinghe County. Did he find any other clues about Chen Jiaojiao?"

Rong Yan shook his head gently, "No details have been received yet. The evidence sent can only convict the Shen family."

Ruyi nodded, “I don’t think things are that simple. The Cao family and the third prince’s style of doing things is different from normal people. There may be other secrets behind Shen Jiaojiao.”

Rong Yan agreed with this point, "I suspect she is the princess of Nanchu."

"!"

Ruyi was so shocked that she sobered up.

"Do you have solid evidence for this matter?"

Rong Yan mentioned it to her last time, but it was just a guess. But now, although Rong Yan said "doubt", his tone was obviously certain.

Rong Yan nodded, "The news from Fengyu Pavilion basically matches my guess."

As one wishes:"……"

She completely sobered up, thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, we can take the initiative and avoid this war."

Rong Yan's eyes lit up when he heard this, "What do you think?"

Ruyi always brings him surprises.

"If she is the princess of Nanchu, then the Fourth Prince is using her. In a sense, this proves that her disappearance is related to the Fourth Prince. The Fourth Prince is at odds with the Crown Prince. He advocates attacking Northern Qi in order to control military power and hold the Crown Prince hostage."

When Ruyi said this, a sharp light flashed in her eyes.
