But an accident happened.
At that time, King Ancheng was a rare and excellent candidate for a wife in the capital. She was beautiful and the only daughter of the old King Ancheng. When the old King Ancheng passed away, she would inherit King Ancheng's position and have power and influence.
Moreover, the lineage of King Ancheng has always been people of deep affection, and they will only have one husband in their lifetime.
Who doesn’t want such a good wife?
At that time, the youngest son of the Minister of Rites fell in love with Princess Ancheng and wanted to marry her. However, the King Ancheng already had someone in his heart, who was now his husband, so he flatly refused.
But the young man was madly in love with King Ancheng and was determined to win him over. After King Ancheng gave birth, he bribed the midwife and stole one of the children away.
He also invited people from outside the region to perform witchcraft and replace the soul of another child, Qin Zichu.
Qin Zichu's soul was forced to leave his body and became a lonely soul, not knowing where to go. However, the one who occupied Qin Zichu's body was a strange lonely ghost.
At first, King Ancheng and his wife didn't know about it until they captured the man.
In his madness, he said it out loud in order to take revenge on King Ancheng and his wife.
Later, the son of the Minister of Rites was beheaded for plotting to murder the Crown Prince of Ancheng. For the sake of their child, King Ancheng and his wife sought help from the abbot of Xiangguo Temple.
The host at that time was Liaokong.
Liaokong said: They must keep the body of "Qin Zichu" which is now occupied by a wandering ghost. When the time comes, the original Qin Zichu will naturally come back.
As for the other child who was stolen, he can't be found. But he will come back one day, but when is still unknown. God has his own plan.
So, the Ancheng King and his wife raised Qin Zichu, whose body was their own daughter but whose soul was a stranger. They indulged her but did not get close to her. This wait lasted for more than twenty years.
They originally thought that they might never have the chance to see their biological daughters again in this lifetime. Because they missed their two daughters day and night, the already frail Wang Fu's health became worse and worse.
Until that time, Qin Zichu fell off his horse and remained unconscious for a long time.
The couple came to Xiangguo Temple again, and heard the abbot Le Kong say: She is back.
Sure enough, when Qin Zichu woke up again, he was a different person.
King Ancheng once said to his wife: That silly child thought he concealed it well, but the expression was written all over his face.
Not allowing her to leave Beijing before her 22nd birthday was also a helpless move. Master Liaokong said that if she left Beijing before the age of 22, her soul would become unstable and wandering ghosts would invade her body again. If it happened again, even he was not sure whether their daughter could come back.
After receiving the news from Host Lekong, King Ancheng and his wife felt relieved and left.
The temple bells were rung at fixed times, one after another, lingering throughout the quiet valley. Liaokong's gaze fell on the backs of King Ancheng and his wife.
What he didn't mention was the soul swap between the two sisters.
It’s better not to say anything. It was both a coincidence and destiny. It’s just right now.
Qin Zichu and Zhao Chuchu naturally didn't know what was happening in the capital, nor did they know that they were actually twin sisters.
-
"Zichu, I'm sorry, I can't go back to the capital with you." A few days later, Qing'er once again rejected Qin Zichu's invitation to return to the capital.
Qin Zichu reached out and brushed a strand of black hair from Qing'er's forehead behind her. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she said softly, "It's okay, I will wait for you." In the past, you always waited for me, and now it's my turn to wait for you.
Besides, her Qing'er is so beautiful, she also needs to become better.
