When Lan'er heard this, a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes, "Master, how do you know that your disciple looks exactly like that Princess Dongping?" Lan'er asked with a naive and romantic look on her face. For the past seven years, she has been following her master, either learning the techniques of witchcraft or practicing self-defense. She has never been outside.

As for the Princess Dongping of Da Qi, she had never heard of her.

Miao Xiang patted her shoulder solemnly and took her into his arms, "My good disciple, in fact, it was a spy from a foreign country who reported that Princess Tingya had lost a little daughter ten years ago.

"Master, after calculating, I found that both of you are the same age and look the same, but the princess seemed to have been taken away by a wolf a long time ago, and must have been killed. Master wants you to pretend to be the Princess of Dongping and hide with them."

"There won't be such a coincidence in the world, right?"

Lan'er was extremely surprised that their age and appearance were exactly the same. To dispel her concerns, Miao Xiang grabbed her hand and said, "Of course, there is a huge difference in your ages, but your appearance is the same, there is no problem."

Seeing that she looked worried and didn't seem to want to agree to her request, he pretended to be angry and said, "Are you doubting the master and afraid that the master will put you in an unkind and unjust situation?"

"Of course not, Master. What are you talking about? Master saved my life and raised me. No matter what, Lan'er will definitely repay you."

"Okay, tomorrow I'll have someone quietly send you out of the city. The old king doesn't know about this matter, so you must act in secrecy. Do you understand?"

"good."

Seeing that the little girl had finally taken the bait, Miao Xiang raised a sly smile, pulled her into her arms, and patted her shoulders.

Gu Yunru has been in the palace for four or five days. Every day she can see Shen Aojun personally cooking soup and bringing it to the study.

Every day she would walk to the door quietly, but did not dare to go in to disturb him. She just watched from afar as Shen Aojun talked and greeted him.

Today, Rong Zhen didn't seem to be in a very good mood, and he seemed to have made Shen Aojun cry. After a series of noises in the room, Shen Aojun ran out of the study door with tears in her eyes.

When the servants saw this scene, they naturally retreated and no one dared to go up and talk to him.

Gu Yunru was different. She knew that this was a manifestation of Rong Zhen's bipolar disorder. She strode forward, but saw the incense burner rolled to her feet.

"Why is the prince so angry?" Gu Yunru bent down to reset the incense burner and put it back in its proper place, but saw that there was a lot of annoyance in his eyes, as if he was watching his prey step into the room.

"Get out." Rong Zhen said this word in a cold tone, and a cold aura emanated from his body, making the whole room seem like it had fallen into the coldest month of winter.

Gu Yunru's smile froze, and a hint of unnaturalness quietly escaped from her eyes. She came to him fearlessly and said to him coldly, "If you want to heal your leg injury, you must not be too emotional. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to be so calm today."

"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" His cold expression was like ice and snow that could never be touched. If it were a maid or old woman who didn't know what was going on, her legs would have trembled with fear. But Gu Yunru was different.

"I believe that the prince is a reasonable man. Miss Shen ran away so sadly just now, so the prince must have said something extremely unpleasant." Gu Yunru looked at his expression which was a little subtle, but he really listened to what she said. He was no longer as angry as before, and the sharpness in his expression gradually faded. Looking at the woman in front of him, especially her pair of inverted triangle phoenix eyes, he felt very familiar.

"What qualifications do you have? You dare to teach me a lesson!" Rong Zhen was extremely curious about this girl. Her tone was exactly the same as Gu Yunru's back then, but her appearance and figure were obviously not the same person. Yet, he had a sense of déjà vu.

Rong Zhen and her stared at each other for a moment, their eyes were fixed on each other. Gu Yunru subconsciously looked away, but Rong Zhen used his mind reading ability to quickly see the unnaturalness in her expression. He walked up to her and grabbed her chin fiercely and said, "Who are you? Are you a spy sent by a foreign country?"

"...Why would Your Highness say that? I'm not from a foreign country." The lines on Gu Yunru's bright face softened a lot. She looked at Rong Zhen's aggressive eyes, as if she wanted her to confess without even fighting.

"You're still saying no, but it was such a coincidence that you showed up at the restaurant that day. Don't you sincerely want to enter my palace?" There was a hint of sarcasm in Rong Zhen's words, and he exuded an aura of majesty without even being angry.

"Your Highness...you must have misunderstood. I have never thought of it this way." Gu Yunru just wanted to find an excuse to avoid his interrogation, but she didn't expect Rong Zhen to go even further and pushed her directly.

"I see that you are evasive in your words, there must be something fishy going on. Come, lock her up in the woodshed, and don't give her a single bite to eat from today on!"

The guards at the door immediately stepped forward after hearing the order, and one of them grabbed Gu Yunru's arm. Before Gu Yunru could react, he was violently dragged away by them.

On the other side, Shen Aojun had just finished dealing with the restaurant and was about to return home when she saw Cui'er running up to her anxiously, "Miss, this is bad. Miss Ah Xin was locked up in the woodshed by the prince in a rage, and the prince has ordered that no one is allowed to visit her."

"What!" Shen Aojun found it ridiculous. It seemed that Rong Zhen's nameless anger today was vented on Miss Ashin.

"Miss, you can't plead for that girl. The prince is angry now and doesn't want to listen to anyone." Cui'er didn't want to see her young lady being treated coldly again. The prince was so heartless to her, but the young lady was so loyal and righteous.

"That's enough, Cui'er, don't say these things again. I have to go back quickly." After saying this, Shen Aojun got on the carriage and quickly returned to the mansion. Rong Zhen was in the yard, still studying the huge kite. In the empty yard near the woodshed, Gu Yunru looked out of the window, looking at Rong Zhen's busy back, and seemed to understand what he was going to do.
