【Chapter 433, Meeting】

Xiao Rou froze when she heard the gentle voice coming from her ear. The smile on her face was gone, and her pale face was like seeing a ghost.

The earphone that Shao Qingge handed her was the one conjured by Xiao Lou from the card [Team Voice Earphone]. Shao Qingge also wore one in his ear, so he could also hear what Xiao Lou said. Just now, Xiao Lou just said "Sister, I'm Xiao Lou, I want to see you", but the princess' face suddenly turned so ugly, her reaction was too strange, right?

Shao Qingge narrowed his eyes, carefully observing the woman in front of him.

Xiao Rou's ability to regulate emotions is top-notch, she calmed down quickly, and said to Shao Qingge: "Mr. Find an opportunity to entertain you father and son well. It's too late today, if I go back late, my husband will worry."

Shao Qingge quickly understood what she meant, and bowed respectfully: "Princess, go slowly."

She said a lot of polite words, but in fact the last sentence is the key point - her husband will be worried if she goes back late.

Her husband is Prince Herman, the crown prince of the Azure Empire. Xiao Rou held a charity dinner in the name of a private person today. Although Prince Herman was not present, he must have sent personal guards to protect her. On such an occasion, she and Xiao Rou If Lou meets, it will inevitably attract attention, maybe there are people from the prince around her watching her movements.

Xiao Lou said "Sister, I want to see you", but she didn't respond.

But when she spoke, she deliberately pressed the bump on the micro-shaped earphone, so Xiao Lou could hear what she said.

Xiao Lou said considerately: "Sister, I'll wait for your arrangement. When it's convenient for you to see me, use the headset to contact me."

Xiao Rou didn't reply, she nodded towards Shao Qingge, turned around and left quickly.

It was ten o'clock in the evening, and the buffet dinner was coming to an end. Shao Qingge and Ye Qi followed Kevin and left the scene. Yu and Xiao, who were pretending to be Mr. Zhou and his assistants, also left. Everyone gathered at the Ferris Wheel Hotel.

The real Mr. Zhou was controlled by Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci. Tang Ci got sleeping pills from somewhere, which made Mr. Zhou sleep all day. Yu Hanjiang took off the mask pretending to be Mr. Zhou, frowned and said: "The princess refuses to see us, is she being watched?"

Xiao Lou nodded and said: "She held a charity dinner at the hotel tonight and invited many people. It is normal for the palace to send someone to protect her and monitor her by the way. It must be inconvenient for her not to meet me."

Ye Qi scratched his head and said, "This princess is very strange. When we showed her the video, her hands were shaking all the time; Professor Xiao asked to meet her, but her face was so pale that she had seen a ghost... she Is it a friendly army or an enemy? If we stand on the opposite side of us and send someone to arrest us when we meet Professor Xiao another day, wouldn't we be in a trap?"

Xiaoye's worry is not unreasonable. The princess's attitude is unclear at present. Whether she will help Xiao Lou and solve the mystery of the year, or simply hand over Xiao Lou, the prince who escaped from the palace, to His Majesty, everyone is not sure.

But Xiao Lou thought it was worth taking a risk. After careful consideration, he said, "No matter what, I have to meet her. She must know a lot of secrets. If she wants to harm me, it's easy. We have Tao Yuanming, who is the most important person in the world." A card that can teleport in time and space, as long as she wants to attack me, brother Jiu directly pulls me to teleport, and she can't catch me."

Lu Jiuchuan agreed: "Anyway, we don't have any other clues to check now. Let's get in touch with the princess first. When you go to see her, I will open the peach blossom garden. This space can exist for 3 hours, and it can be sent back at any time if there is an accident during the period. Hotel. Huaying's starship is still waiting for us near the space station, and once the princess or Prince Herman issues a warrant to arrest us, we can escape on the starship at any time."

Yu Hanjiang thought carefully about what the concubine said before she left, and said, "What she means is that I will find an opportunity to 'entertain' Mr. Shao tomorrow, and then we will pretend to be Mr. Shao's assistant and go with us?"

Xiao Lou said: "Well, wait for her to arrange it, we are not familiar with the place here, so it is not good to act rashly."

Yu Hanjiang nodded, and looked at Tang Ci: "Will the bug that Mr. Tang put on that necklace be discovered?"

Tang Ci said: "Don't worry, everyone, I hid the bug behind the diamond, and it was glued so firmly that it couldn't be seen from the outside. Unless they took the entire necklace apart."

Xiao Lou frowned slightly: "Unfortunately, the range of Ye Qi's bug is only 500 meters, she returned to the palace..."

Yu Hanjiang said: "It's not too late, let's wear the invisibility cloak and go check around the palace."

Xiao Lou also meant the same thing, and the two hit it off immediately.

Yu Hanjiang borrowed a teleportation card from Ye Qi, and then used the qinggong card, which was as light as a swallow, to wrap his arms around Xiao Lou's waist and fly out of the Ferris Wheel Hotel.

Lightness skill + teleportation two cards are used together, like a trapeze.

In a blink of an eye, Yu Hanjiang brought Xiao Lou to the vicinity of the palace.

The inside of the palace is heavily guarded, and there are patrolling soldiers everywhere. Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang dare not rush in. Anyway, they can hear the movement from the bugs within 500 meters. They circled around the palace and quickly located Xiao Rou's residence. .

She lives in the Aquarius Palace, and the whole palace is shaped like an exquisite bottle.

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou held the other end of the bug, and there was a "rustling" sound of rubbing in their ears, followed by Xiao Rou saying: "This is the blue wire that Mr. Shao gave me.

gemstone necklace. "

After a few seconds of silence, a man's cold voice sounded beside his ears: "He is not related to you, so he gave you such a precious necklace when we first met?"

Xiao Rou smiled and said: "You think too much, Mr. Shao is a businessman from our Luoke Empire, and he happened to be traveling on the Azure Planet recently, so he just stopped by to visit me. My current identity is your princess after all, he can't come to see me empty-handed Me?"

Prince Hermann then asked: "Aside from giving the necklace, what did he say?"

Xiao Judao: "He bought a diamond necklace for 50 million star coins, and said he wanted to do his part for charity."

Herman chuckled: "It seems that this Mr. Shao is a very kind businessman." He got up and walked to Xiao Rou's side, and said in a gentle voice, "I don't care if you contact a businessman from the Luoke Empire." I don't object, I'm just worried about your safety. Don't forget, you are not alone now, you have to think more about the baby in your stomach, understand?"

Xiao Rou smiled and said softly: "Understood, I have an appointment with the doctor for a prenatal checkup tomorrow."

Herman was puzzled: "Didn't you just check it last week?"

Xiao Judao: "I haven't been feeling well these few days. For the sake of my child's health, I want to do another comprehensive checkup."

Herman thought for a while, and said, "There's no harm in being more cautious. I'll accompany you tomorrow."

Xiao Ju said: "You are so busy, I'll go alone..."

Herman interrupted her with a smile: "How can that be? As a husband and father, no matter how busy you are, you should spend time with you. What time did you make an appointment?"

Xiao Judao: "It was Professor Edwin who examined me at St. Paul's Hospital. He will be on duty tomorrow afternoon. I made an appointment to go to him at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon for a comprehensive examination."

Herman nodded and said, "You've been tired all day, take a good rest first, and I'll pick you up on time tomorrow afternoon."

The sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor gradually faded away, followed by the sound of opening and closing the door, and the man whispered to the maid: "Take care of the princess."

The maid entered the room and asked respectfully, "Princess, do you want to take a bath and rest now, or do you want to have some supper?"

Xiao Rou smiled and said, "Go and get me some pastries. By the way, remember to remind me that I will go to St. Paul's Hospital for an examination at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon. My personal doctor, Dr. Edwin, is very precious and cannot be late."

The maid responded and turned to leave.

Xiao Rou suddenly said softly: "Go to Dr. Edwin and tell me that I need another examination."

The maid didn't hear clearly, she turned around and said, "Princess, what did you say?"

Xiao Judao: "I said, I'll let Professor Edwin arrange everything... Herman is really worried too much. In fact, he doesn't need to accompany me. He is so busy, and I don't want to trouble him for such a trivial matter. "

The maid said: "He also cares about you. He loves you so much, everyone is very envious."

Xiao Rou smiled: "Well, you go."

Both Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang were wearing invisibility cloaks. Hearing this, he lightly squeezed Yu Hanjiang's arm: "She explained the time, place, and characters very clearly."

Yu Hanjiang said: "Well, your sister is really smart, let's go back and make arrangements first."

In fact, there was no need for Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang to make this trip.

During the conversation between Xiao Rou and Prince Herman just now, she pretended to rub her ears and pressed the bump on the miniature earphone in her ear, so that their conversation would be transmitted to Xiao Lou in real time.

Even without the bug, she passed on the news.

She didn't show any flaws in front of Prince Herman, she only said that she was going for a maternity checkup, but in fact she hinted at every word.

——Tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, St. Paul's Hospital, Professor Edwin.

—Go to Dr. Edwin and just say I'm going to have another test and he'll take care of everything.

This is what Xiao Rou wants to tell his younger brother.

If Xiao Lou wants to see her, tomorrow afternoon is the best chance. If she sees Shao Qingge again in a short time, it will arouse her husband's suspicion. Pregnant women will not be suspected of this reason, right?

After returning to the Ferris Wheel Hotel, Xiao Lou looked serious: "My sister is indeed under surveillance. Prince Herman probably sent someone to keep an eye on her. She has to report to her husband in person about meeting Mr. Shao in the living room today. report."

Shao Qingge said clearly: "No wonder she dared not see you. I bought a necklace worth 50 million star coins at the dinner party, and with Kevin's introduction, there is always a reason to visit her formally. If you see her for no reason, it will definitely cause trouble. Suspect."

She was so cautious, which made Xiao Lou even more uneasy.

Now that you are a princess, you can't move freely, and you don't know if she has been doing well these years?

Xiao Lou took a deep breath, looked at Tang Ci and said, "Mr. Tang, please find that Dr. Edwin as soon as possible. We have to make all preparations before three o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

Tang Ci checked the information very quickly, not to mention that Dr. Edwin is the most authoritative expert in obstetrics in Azure Empire. Within 5 minutes, he even found out the other party's house number.

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou looked at each other and acted overnight.

The two first sent the rich man surnamed Zhou who had been kidnapped back to the residence of the Ferris Wheel Hotel.

Immediately afterwards, they touched Dr. Edwin's residence.

The two sneaked into the professor's apartment without knowing it. The gray-haired professor had just finished taking a shower and was yawning as he walked into the bedroom. Suddenly, a black shadow flashed outside the window, and he was stunned. His neck was firmly grabbed from behind, and a deep and cold voice sounded in his ear: "Don't make a sound, don't move around, the princess sent me

here we come. "

Edwin hurriedly raised his hands: "What's the matter?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "She said that she will have another examination. At three o'clock tomorrow afternoon, you arrange for us to go to St. Paul's Hospital."

Edwin understood: "Understood, let me go first."

Yu Hanjiang let go of him, and said in a low voice, "I offended you."

Edwin said: "There are a group of interns in our hospital recently. I will bring you two sets of white coats. When the time comes, you will put on the white coats and wear my student's name tag on your chest. You will go to the duty room of the obstetrics and gynecology department at two o'clock in the afternoon. I."

Xiao Lou said politely, "Thank you, Professor."

Edwin was puzzled: "Is something wrong with the princess? This is the code of the emergency she agreed with me. Who are you?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "Sorry, I can't tell you yet, the situation is really urgent, you just need to make arrangements."

Edwin nodded: "Okay, please rest assured, Princess."

After coming out of the professor's house, Xiao Lou's expression was very heavy. He hadn't cared about this elder sister at all these years. It might be because his memory before the age of five was too vague. He didn't even remember what her elder sister looked like.

My sister lives alone in a strange country, is it very difficult?

This Professor Edwin should be one of her few confidants.

Xiao Lou sighed softly in his heart, he will see her tomorrow, everything will be discussed after meeting her.

*****

【Chapter 434, Meeting】

Of course, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang cannot show their true colors. After all, Xiao Lou’s face has been publicly shown at the birthday party, and there are many related reports in the news. Almost everyone in the Luoke Empire can recognize this prince, even now. In a foreign country, there is no guarantee that they will be recognized.

Fortunately, he and Yu Hanjiang each have a [Mask] card, which allows them to pretend to be characters at will, which is equivalent to pinching their faces at will.

Xiao Lou turned himself into a 20-year-old college student who just graduated, and Yu Hanjiang turned himself into an intern. Both of them looked young, which was in line with what Edwin called an "intern doctor" character set.

At noon the next day, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang, who had put on a disguise, came to St. Paul's Hospital.

The two wore white coats with the intern's name tags on their chests. They quickly passed the inspection at the entrance of the hospital and entered the obstetrics and gynecology building. They found the room where Dr. Edwin was on duty.

Professor Edwin was sorting out the cases. After seeing the two of them, he didn't ask any more questions, and said, "Just follow me and study."

Xiao Lou glanced at the case information on his LCD screen - Xiao Rou has been pregnant for three months, everything is in a stable condition, and she is still pregnant with twins. Originally scheduled for an examination next month, Xiao Rou suddenly made an appointment ahead of time, apparently to let Xiao Lou and the others find a chance to sneak into the hospital so that they could meet her.

At 2:40 in the afternoon, Professor Edwin left the outpatient office, brought two "interns" to the diagnosis and treatment area, and asked them to hide in a VIP examination room.

After a while, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang heard a familiar voice coming from their ears - it was Xiao Rou and Prince Herman who had arrived.

Xiao Judao: "Professor, please give me another examination. In the past few days, I always feel stuffy in my heart and stomach, and I can't sleep well at night, and I always have insomnia."

Herman frowned and said, "You don't feel well, why didn't you tell me?"

Xiao Rou said softly, "I don't want you to worry."

Herman said, "Professor, is her condition serious?"

Professor Edwin comforted: "The princess may have a strong reaction in the early stages of pregnancy. Don't worry too much. The results of the last inspection are all normal. I will give you a comprehensive examination today. Please come with me."

Herman wanted to follow, but the professor stopped him and said: "You wait in my office for a while, the examination room of the obstetrics and gynecology department is not convenient for family members to enter, and I will call you later when I perform abdominal color ultrasound for the princess, you You can use the four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound to see the two babies."

Herman didn't think too much, walked over with a smile and kissed Xiao Rou's forehead, and said, "I'll wait for you outside."

Xiao Rou was helped into the examination room by the gray-haired old professor.

As soon as she entered the room, she met a pair of clear and bright eyes. The man was wearing a white coat and looked like a young student who had just graduated, with ordinary facial features.

Xiao Rou was startled: "You are..."

Professor Edwin said, "Princess, they came to see me last night."

Xiao Rou understood: "Professor, let me talk to them alone."

The old professor nodded, and said: "I'll give you ten minutes, and I'll try to hold the prince back."

After he left, Xiao Rou took a step forward, stared into Xiao Lou's eyes and said, "Xiao Lou, is that you?"

Xiao Lou took off his mask, smiled and said, "Sister, long time no see."

The young man in front of him had handsome features and a demeanor, and he could vaguely see what his father looked like when he was young.

Xiao Rou grabbed his hand excitedly, her voice trembling slightly: "Why did you come here? It's dangerous for you to do this! You don't know that there are still in the palace..." She paused, her eyes full of Struggling, as if hesitating whether to speak or not.

Xiao Loudao: "Is there a prince who looks exactly like me?"

Xiao Rou's eyes widened: "How do you know?"

Xiao Lou said calmly, "I've seen them before."

Xiao Rou's face was pale, and her hands were tightly clenched by her side.

Xiao Lou Wen said: "Sister, what do you know, can you tell me? I also copied it

? "

Xiao Rou raised her head and looked at the handsome young man in front of her. Her fingers trembled slightly and stroked Xiao Lou's forehead. Xiao Lou didn't dodge until her fingertips stopped at the hairline in the upper left corner of Xiao Lou's forehead.

She said softly, "You are my brother."

Xiao Lou was puzzled: "How did my sister tell the difference?"

Xiao Rou's gaze was very gentle, and she choked up and said, "Concubine Mother is not in good health, so I was the one who took care of you during the years you were born. Once, due to my negligence, I accidentally knocked over the cup and used The hot water scalded you, you were less than three years old at that time, and you kept crying, I hugged you and coaxed you, but no matter how I coaxed you, it was useless, I was terrified..."

She gently touched a small patch of black on Xiao Lou's forehead: "After your injury here healed, there was a scar left. I was worried that the scar would be ugly. If I send you for plastic surgery, I will definitely be scolded by my father. So I secretly found a good tattoo artist and tattooed the scar black. I usually can’t see it when it’s covered by my hair, but when I lift my hair up, it will be very clear. Only I know the nail-sized tattoo.”

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other and suddenly realized.

On the day of the birthday party, His Royal Highness attending the party had his hair styled very delicately, revealing a smooth forehead with a high hairline and no trace of tattoos at all. Therefore, Xiao Rou knew at a glance that it was not her real brother.

Xiao Lou has been taken care of by her since he was born, and she is the one who knows Xiao Lou best.

What's more, it was a tattoo left by her.

Hearing that Xiao Lou is not a clone, but the real prince, Yu Hanjiang couldn't help feeling a little complicated—no matter what identity Xiao Lou is, of course he will protect Xiao Lou, but since Xiao Lou is the real prince, why the engagement banquet, His Majesty won't allow him to attend birthday parties and various important occasions?

Xiao Lou also thought of these doubts, took a deep breath and said, "When did my sister know the existence of replicants?"

Xiao Rou said with a pale face: "When you were five years old, I accidentally saw some terrible things. You were too young at the time, so I didn't dare to tell you. My mother had been recuperating for a few years, so I didn't dare to tell you. She said, afraid of irritating her... I have been trying to find a way these years, but there seems to be some agreement between Herman and my father. Since I married him, he has been secretly sending people to monitor my movements. It's hard to get in touch with you, let alone see you."

Hearing her choked voice, Xiao Lou's heart softened, and he said softly: "Sister, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault. I've grown up, tell me everything you know, and I will find a way of."

Xiao Rou nodded, and said: "Not long after your fifth birthday, one day, your father suddenly called you over, and I followed secretly out of curiosity, and then I found a man in a white coat entering the palace, twitching You were bleeding a lot. You were in a coma at the time, and I don't know what he was trying to do with your blood."

Thinking of the scene she witnessed back then, Xiao Rou couldn't help but tremble all over: "After a while, I went to see my mother in the Imperial Central Hospital, and saw the doctor who came to draw your blood that day again. I always felt that the doctor was a little strange, so I Out of curiosity, he knocked out the nurse who was with him, put on a mask, pretended to be a nurse, and sneaked into the laboratory."

Xiao Lou whispered: "Then what? Did you see the replicant?"

Xiao Rou nodded: "Many five-year-old children soaked in the nutrient solution look exactly like you!"

Xiao Lou imagined that scene for a while, and couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

Xiao Rou clasped her head in her hands and said in a broken voice: "I almost fainted from fright and ran away in a hurry. I was afraid that I would be silenced if I knew something I shouldn't know, so I kept pretending that nothing happened. Not long after, My father suddenly proposed to marry me to the Crown Prince of the Azure Empire, and my mother was recuperating at the time, so I had no choice but to agree..."

Her eyes were full of tears, she looked at Xiao Lou, choked up and said: "I'm sorry, Xiaolou, my sister can't stay in the palace to protect you, I'm a girl who has no one to rely on, I was only 20 years old at the time, I I didn’t dare to say anything, I was really too scared, and I had nightmares every night during that time.”

"It doesn't matter, anyone else can do better than my sister." Xiao Lou gently pressed her shoulder, and said gently: "I lost a lot of memories when I was five years old. What happened that year?" ?”

Xiao Rou's face was pale, and she clenched her fists: "I, I don't know, but I guess, those five-year-old copy children like you must have an important purpose. Otherwise, why would they copy so many identical children? Where is the prince?"

Xiao Lou's face changed slightly: "So many? How many did you see back then?"

Xiao Rou didn't really want to recall that horrible scene, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Hundreds of them, the laboratory is neat and tidy, full of nutrient solution for raising children, those children... some of them can still laugh, laugh Looks just like you."

The hairs on Xiao Lou's back stood on end, and he said in a deep voice, "In other words, I am the real prince who was brought up by my sister. The scar and tattoo on my forehead were left by my sister, and my father didn't even know about it. When I was five years old, Your Majesty copied hundreds of princes with my blood? What exactly does he want?!"
