She didn't mention personality, she said Princess Gong might understand it better.

The soul that split out was not Chu Xuanling.

Princess Gong looked at her in astonishment.

This was the first time she heard this statement.

"The Taoist priest told me that my little son woke up from his brother's body, and the little spirit who woke up also said that he was my little spirit. Now you tell me that he is also Xiao Che?"

"Yes, he is also the prince." Ruan Xinchen sniffed and looked straight at Princess Gong and said, "Mother, the prince turned himself into two people because of you. Because you blamed him, you said he killed the second young master, you wanted the second young master to come back..."

Princess Gong's face changed, "He..."

Ruan Xinchen nodded, "Yes, he listened. He couldn't bring a dead person back to life, so he split himself into two. He gave half of himself to become the Second Young Master to comfort you."

The child was very attached to his mother, and his brother being killed in front of him did not break him down.

But his mother's accusations against him and seeing her become as sick and declining as he did were the final straw that broke the camel's back.

So he divided himself into two people, and he named the awakened other personality Chu Xuanling.

After hearing what she said, Princess Gong burst into tears.

He said he was a little spirit, but didn't he know whether he was actually a mother?

They are different. The soul that wakes up is different from the little spirit.

She remembered that Xiao Ling was a shy and gentle child who was always considerate of others.

He is so kind...

The awakened Xiao Ling looked nothing like his original self.

He is unrestrained and undisciplined, and is like the opposite of the original Xiao Ling.

In many ways, he is even...even more like the previous Xiao Che.

He only remembers things that happened with his brother, and has no memory of what happened when his brother was not around. How can he be Xiao Ling?

It's nothing but a lie that deceives oneself and others.

"I'm wrong, it's my fault... I really didn't expect Xiao Che to listen to those words. I really didn't expect Xiao Che to force me into this state. This child must have endured so much pain in his heart..."

Princess Gong cried uncontrollably.

She had deceived herself for so many years, and now she realized that it was finally over.

Ruan Xinchen had been comforting her the whole time. What surprised her was that Princess Gong was so easy to accept the fact that Chu Xuanling did not exist.

She originally thought that it was a very troublesome thing to persuade Princess Gong to admit that her youngest son had died young, and it was also a very painful process.

Unexpectedly, the result was smoother than she imagined.

After venting her anger, Princess Gong gradually calmed down.

She sobbed and said, "Actually I know he is not Xiao Ling. Xiao Ling is not like that."

Ruan Xinchen was shocked, "Does mother know?"

Princess Gong nodded. "I have always known that Xiao Ling is not like that, and he does not have Xiao Ling's memory. His personality is even more like Xiao Che in some aspects. In fact, I have always wondered if he is Xiao Che. Later, Xiao Che... became cold and strange. I often can't figure out who they are."

Princess Gong wiped away her tears, her voice still filled with sobs.

"I just... didn't want to admit it. I pretended not to know and lied to myself that Xiao Ling was back, so that I would feel better. But I didn't expect that I would have to pretend for ten years, and he would stay with me like this for ten years."

Ruan Xinchen didn't know what to say for a moment, so she chose to remain silent and let Princess Gong have her say.

"I really didn't expect this kid to split himself into two people for me. But...how can one person split into two people? Xinchen, I see you seem to understand this, what do you think of him?"

"He is sick." Ruan Xinchen said: "This disease is a type of brain disease called dual personality. He suffered a severe blow and was forced to split himself into two people."

"Ah?" Princess Gong said in horror, "Then... can it still be cured?"

Did she finally figure it out and let him treat her illness?

Ruan Xinchen shook his head, "It's very difficult."

Princess Gong said, "We can't let him stay like this forever. We have to give it a try."

"Well, that requires our cooperation."

"He cares a lot about your opinion. He is split into two because of you. Mother, please talk to him."

Princess Gong nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay, I'll talk to him."

…

When Ruan Xinchen returned, he saw Chu Xuanche still copying the scriptures.

She stood in front of him and whispered, "My Lord, I will tell mother about your situation."

The pen in his hand paused, and a drop of ink fell, staining the handwriting black.

Chu Xuanche looked up at her in surprise.

"Mother knew from the beginning that he was not Xiao Ling. She..." She paused and said, "You should go by yourself. She wants to talk to you alone."

Chu Xuanche dripped one drop, two drops... of ink onto the white paper in that posture, smudged out a dark mass.

After a while, he put down his pen.

"Okay, I'll go."

He casually threw the pen into the pen holder and walked out slowly.

Ruan Xinchen picked up his scattered things and put them away, and also stacked up the scriptures he had written and put them away.

Then he sat in his study, reading a book from time to time.

On his bookshelf, there are actually many miscellaneous books about ghosts and gods.

Presumably, he had put a lot of effort into the alien spirit in his body.

Bored, Ruan Xinchen flipped through the pages casually, and before she knew it, the screen was dark, but Chu Xuanche had not come back yet.

Caiyu came and asked, "Miss, are you ready to serve the meal?"

Ruan Xinchen shook his head, "Wait a little longer."

"good."

After a while, a servant came in hurriedly.

"Madam, the princess wants you to come to the front hall for a talk."

Ruan Xinchen quickly put down the book and followed him out.

It's been so long, they should talk it out.

When she looked out, she found that the prince, princess and Chu Xuanche were all there.

The family of three is together, except for her.

"Xinchen, come here quickly."

Princess Gong waved to her.

Ruan Xinchen walked over and sat down next to Princess Gong.

Sitting opposite were Prince Gong and Chu Xuanche's wife.

Princess Gong's eyes were still a little red, but her gaze was firm, as clear as if a layer of mist had been peeled off.

"What you said to me today, I also said to your king. Some things..." She looked at the woman opposite her and said, "It should be resolved."

Seeing their serious expressions, Ruan Xinchen immediately became serious.

What needs to be solved?

How do they want to solve Chu Xuanche's illness?

With her eyes full of doubt, Princess Gong spoke slowly.

"Xinchen, our family has been in dire straits for many years. Now for Xiaoche, we have decided to take revenge on our enemies."

ah?

"Only when the enemy gets the retribution he deserves, will Xiao Che's heart knot be untied."

Ruan Xinchen: “…”

Chu Xuanche said that it was the Queen Mother who wanted to kill him, so their enemy was the Queen Mother?

They want revenge on the Queen Mother?
