Chapter 292 You like Prince Xiao?
Reading Settings
Chu Yun wanted Chu Yan's identity and family background, and wanted to enjoy everything she had, but she wasn't entirely willing to live with Chu Yan's face for the rest of her life.
Thinking that in the future, Prince Xiao would face Chu Yan's face every day, she was vaguely worried that the prince might really fall in love with Chu Yan's face.
After all, she secretly thought Chu Yan was prettier than herself, but Prince Xiao liked her from the beginning and saw beauty in his lover, so he didn't pay much attention to Chu Yan.
"How could that be? I know exactly who you are and who she is. If it weren't for her family background, her face would be worthless to me."
King Xiao said with certainty.
At this moment, all he could think about was the hatred he felt for Chu Yan's betrayal, and he didn't realize that he could still have any feelings for her.
He only wanted to replace Chu Yan's face with Chu Yun's, then imprison her as a concubine by his side, while Yun'er could use her face to help him.
Although Su Wanshi outside didn't hear everything clearly, she grasped the general meaning and knew that they were talking about changing the faces and identities of Chu Yan and Chu Yun.
She felt goosebumps rise all over her body. A face change?
Does it mean peeling off a person's face and replacing it on another person's body?
Is there really anyone in this world with such great abilities?
She subconsciously touched the skin on her chin that had been burned by the fire. Now, she can't go out without makeup and a thick layer of foundation.
If only her face could be replaced...
Before she knew it, Su Wanshi had fallen for him.
Looking at Xiao Wang's tall and slender back, she knew that the fact that this man was willing to help Chu Yun and Chu Yan switch faces was enough to show how much he loved Chu Yun.
He sent him to be a spy for the King of Chu, and he'll probably abandon him once the King succeeds!
Just like Su Liluo stayed by the Crown Prince's side for the sake of the King of Chu in the previous life, King Xiao probably also used him. Otherwise, why would he send Chu Yun instead of himself to have Chu Yan switch faces?
After figuring this out, Su Wanshi narrowed her eyes slightly; she couldn't let them succeed.
She wanted to take Chu Yun's place; after all, in the previous life, King Xiao was the true victor.
After thinking about it, Su Wanshi quietly left the area around the dilapidated temple and ran down the mountain.

Bang bang bang!
As darkness fell, the gates of the Crown Prince's residence were tightly shut, and the guards standing in the courtyard were almost dozing off.
Suddenly, a loud knocking sounded on the door.
The servant was startled and jumped, then opened the door and looked at Su Wanshi with curiosity.
"Why are you knocking so urgently so late? Whose maid are you?"
They thought Su Wanshi was a maid in some household.
Because Su Wanshi had run so fast, her hair was disheveled and she looked extremely disheveled.
"Go and summon the Crown Princess immediately. I have urgent business with her. Tell her that if we are late, her close friend, Miss Chu, will die!"
Su Wanshi said breathlessly.
She practically ran all the way down, afraid that if she arrived too late, things would be terrible once Xiao Wang and the others had successfully swapped faces.
Upon hearing that the servant was looking for the Crown Princess, regardless of whether Su Wanshi's words were true or false, he naturally went to report it first.
At this moment, Su Liluo and Xiao Ye were preparing to rest and go to bed. After hearing what the servant said, out of curiosity, they put their clothes back on and came out again.
When Su Liluo saw that the person who came was Su Wanshi, she frowned.
"Su Wanshi, what's wrong with Yan'er?"
She didn't quite believe that Su Wanshi would be so kind as to pass on a message asking her to rescue Chu Yan, and thought it was some kind of scheme by Su Wanshi.
When Su Wanshi saw Su Liluo appear, her eyes lit up and she immediately rushed forward anxiously.
"I'm telling the truth. Prince Xiao and Chu Yun are planning to swap faces with the former Princess Xiao and Chu Yun. They've already tricked Chu Yan into coming up the mountain. If you don't go soon, it will be too late!"
"What did you say? Face swap?"
Su Liluo exclaimed in surprise.
This was the first time she had ever heard of this claim. Could a face really be replaced?
She only knew about disguise, but had never heard of face-changing.
"Yes, face swapping. Prince Xiao is going to peel off Chu Yan's face and put it on Chu Yun's face, and then put Chu Yun's face on Chu Yan's body. I heard it with my own ears!"
Su Wanshi looked at Su Lilu seriously, afraid that she wouldn't believe her.
She was more anxious than they were. She didn't want Chu Yun to succeed, otherwise she would have a formidable rival in the future.
What evidence do you have to prove that what you're saying is true?
Su Liluo looked at Su Wanshi warily, because what she said was simply too unbelievable to her.
In Daliang, there are very few people who know how to disguise themselves, let alone face-changing, which she has never even heard of.
Moreover, even though Che Yi was with Chu Yan, he didn't come looking for her. Instead, it was Su Wanshi, who had no connection with Chu Yan, who came looking for her.
Su Liluo was unaware that Su Wanshi had set her sights on Prince Xiao, so she still believed that this was a trick by Su Wanshi to deceive her.
"I saw it with my own eyes, I heard it with my own ears, they are in a dilapidated temple outside the city, you can see them as soon as you get there!"
Su Wanshi shouted loudly.
"You want me to go to the dilapidated temple?"
Su Lilu smiled, feeling even more strongly that this was a trap, perhaps a pit dug for her by Su Wanshi and someone else.
I'll be in trouble once I get there.
So, Su Liluo rolled her eyes at Su Wanshi, not wanting to say anything more to her, and prepared to turn and leave.
Seeing that Su Liluo didn't believe her, Su Wanshi was extremely anxious, but she really had no evidence!
She was only thinking about getting someone to stop Prince Xiao and his group as soon as possible; she never thought about getting any evidence!
Left with no other choice, Su Wanshi could only watch Su Liluo's retreating figure and shout at the top of her lungs, "I didn't lie to you, I really didn't lie to you! I like Prince Xiao and don't want Chu Yun to succeed, that's why I told you!"
"If you don't believe me, you'll regret it when something happens to Chu Yan!"
"You like Prince Xiao?"
Su Liluo stopped in her tracks and turned back to look at Su Wanshi in surprise.
She didn't expect that Su Wanshi would fall for Prince Xiao so quickly.
At this moment, Xiao Ye also looked at Su Liluo.
He said, "She doesn't seem to be lying. I'll go with you to the outskirts of the city to take a look. If it really is Chu Yan in trouble and we didn't go to save her, you'll definitely regret it later."
He hadn't said a word the whole time; he had been observing Su Wanshi's every move and expression.
Xiao Ye has a keen intuition and is observant, but he did not find any signs of lying on Su Wanshi's face. Instead, he saw genuine anxiety.
Therefore, he believed that Su Wanshi was telling the truth this time. He guessed that she really wanted to prevent Chu Yun from becoming Chu Yan and staying by Xiao Wang's side, so she chose to tell them.
"Since you put it that way, let's go!"
Su Liluo didn't trust Su Wanshi, but she trusted Xiao Ye.
So the two decided to go and see for themselves.
