Is the eldest princess really that powerful?
The crown prince was somewhat confused. In his childhood memories, he had heard some rumors and roughly knew that his aunt was not just a pretty face, but to say that she could deal with the Duke of Qin seemed like an exaggeration.
Even my father, the Emperor, couldn't possibly boast like that, could he?
"What? Doesn't the Crown Prince believe me?" the eldest prince said with a smile.
The crown prince looked slightly embarrassed and quickly waved his hand, saying, "I didn't mean that."
"Indeed." The eldest princess laughed and said, "Who is the Duke of Qin? He is the number one duke of the Great Jin Dynasty. He persuaded seventy percent of the dukes and marquises in the world to surrender. He was also once recognized as the number one general under the King of Qin. How can I, a weak woman, compare with him? Isn't that right?"
"Uh..." The crown prince was taken aback, and took a step back for some reason, subconsciously feeling that something was wrong.
It wasn't because of my aunt's confidence, but because of what she said. The word "King of Qin of Qin" was a taboo in the royal family and was generally not to be mentioned lightly, much less to be mentioned about the relationship between the Duke of Qin and the King of Qin.
"You're quite clever," the princess smiled. "You sensed something was wrong; truly a precocious child!"
The prince's face instantly drained of color, his expression filled with disbelief!
This secret, this secret... how could she know?
Countless memories flooded my mind.
She was a reborn person with memories of her previous life. She was different from other children at birth. She didn't like to cry loudly and only started to cry after being slapped on the bottom by the midwife. When she was three months old, her father was away on a war and her mother was weak after childbirth. So, it was often the Duke of Duke of Qin came to visit her.
He keenly realized his own secret.
When no one was paying attention, the Duke of Qin said something to himself.
"If you're going to pretend to be a child, at least make it convincing. This world is dangerous; if you're found to be abnormal, you'll die very quickly!"
It was around that time that, because of Uncle Lu's reminder, I began to become cautious and restrained my precocious talent. Like the other children around me, I became naive and playful, because I had witnessed too much of my father's dark side since I was a child.
Especially after my older brother died!
He became more cautious and deliberately displayed some of his worst traits, such as hypocrisy, weakness, and tyranny.
He was just an ordinary reborn person, and he had no desire to get involved in this terrible royal struggle. He only wanted to show his weakness so that his second brother could take the throne, so that he could get a fiefdom as soon as he came of age, far away from his terrible father and the intrigue of the capital.
But soon, his second brother died on the battlefield.
His death was extremely sudden, and it was publicly stated that he died in battle, but it terrified him. He always felt that his brave and skilled second brother should not have died in battle.
He desperately wanted to escape, but he couldn't, because he was his father's only remaining pure-blooded child.
To be honest, he wished he didn't have the talent of the Golden Crow Bloodline, but that talent just couldn't be hidden!
Having become the crown prince, he could only hide his true nature even more and continue to reveal his vices.
This was the only way; they had to remain hidden for over thirty years!
Even someone reborn would become twisted after thirty years of such repression.
Therefore, his tyranny was often not an act, but a genuine desire to vent. In this way, with the truth being half-truth and half-falsehood, everyone believed even more that he was a crown prince whose character was far inferior to that of his elder brothers.
But she never imagined that the person in front of her knew about her painful pretense for so many years.
"What did Aunt say? I don't understand," the Crown Prince said, his face pale, clinging to the last shred of hope.
"Tsk," the eldest princess clicked her tongue, leading the somewhat dazed crown prince out of the valley. Unbeknownst to them, the two walked to an increasingly secluded spot.
"You've been pretending for thirty years, and I thought you'd at least made some progress, that you could at least remain calm and collected in the face of important matters. But look at you like this," the princess said, shaking her head with a pitiful expression. "Indeed, no matter how much you try to reform, if you're still a worm at heart, you'll never become a dragon!"
Transformation?
The prince swallowed hard, all hope vanishing. He looked around abruptly and realized he had been taken to a secluded place. Panic ensued, his Bloodline Power erupting as he stared intently at his aunt before him!
"Don't show off your meager skills." Looking at the Crown Prince's erupting Golden Crow Bloodline, the princess sighed and gently patted the Crown Prince's shoulder. The immense pressure caused the Golden Crow Flame that had risen to shrink back!
That fear, almost an instinctive physical reaction, caused his Bloodline Power to dissipate into nothingness!
The crown prince stared in horror at the woman before him. Her bloodline aura was indeed as rumored, in no way inferior to his father's!
"Aunt, how did you know?"
After a long while, the crown prince finally mustered up the courage to ask.
"How did you know?" The eldest princess looked at the crown prince, and finally couldn't help but burst into laughter, then she laughed so hard she could barely breathe.
"What do you mean, Aunt?" The Crown Prince's face darkened. Even if she had noticed something, did she deserve such humiliation?
He touched his arm, where there were marks left by the Duke of Qin. The Duke had said that as long as he called him, anytime, anywhere, he could arrive at his side in a short time!
He used it once when he was very young, and the other party didn't lie to him!
So for the past thirty years, he has been supported by two beliefs. One is that he is a disguise, and no one has discovered that he is actually talented at heart. The second is that he has a great support: the most powerful general in the Great Jin, the Duke of Qin, who is so powerful that even his father is wary of him, is on his side!
But this time was different from the last. Before his fingers even touched the mark, a white light flashed, and by the time he realized what was happening, his arm with the mark had disappeared. Then blood gushed out, and intense pain completely shattered his last mental defenses!
"Ah!!!!"
The screams echoed throughout the valley, but no one responded.
The eldest princess smiled as she held the crown prince's severed arm, admiring the black patterns on it. " Lu Ming is quite generous. His body is in such a state, yet he still used his blood essence to bind with you, afraid that something might happen to you, Reincarnator."
" Reincarnator." The prince knelt on the ground, looking at the other person with despair in his eyes. He was hearing the term "Reincarnator " for the first time, but he understood its meaning perfectly. There was no mistake; the other person had always known his secret!
"What a pity!" The princess smiled and stepped forward, stroking the prince's pale face. "It's fake!"
"Fake?" The crown prince's pupils contracted, his heart filled with shock once more. "What do you mean?"
"It means exactly what it says," the princess covered her mouth and laughed, "Everything about you is fake, including what Lu Ming thought—your identity Reincarnator!"
"Fake, fake?" The crown prince looked completely bewildered, a deep unease rising in his heart. "What exactly do you mean by that?"
"Let me tell you from the beginning," the princess said softly, gazing at the twilight sky. "In this world, there exists a being called Reincarnator. Every time these people appear, they bring earth-shattering changes to the world. There have been two such instances in history!"
"The first incident was during the Warlock Dynasty. A group of Reincarnator appeared then, a secret recorded only by ancient families with a history of ten thousand years. It was the most terrifying event ever. A group of people who didn't follow the rules almost overturned the entire world. Everyone thought their arrival would completely rewrite the fate of humanity, and they originally did have that ability, but in the end..."
At this point, the princess's tone turned icy. "They didn't do that. After a brief period of prosperity for humanity, they betrayed it. The specific reasons are unknown, but in the end, humanity fell into chaos again, and their existence became taboo."
"The second case, you should have heard of it, is the King of Qin, a demon, yet his family concealed his true nature, making him almost the one who unified the Central Plains." At this point, the princess looked at the crown prince with a mocking gaze. "Which Reincarnator isn't a unique figure from a powerful family? Do you think you deserve it?"
Crown Prince: "."
" The Lu Household is one of the few ancient families that has survived since the era of sorcerer families," the eldest princess said with a smile. "The family has records of the first batch of Reincarnator. Those records are extremely secretive. Not to mention your father and me, even the King of Qin back then could not find out the truth from Lu Ming."
"But I know he has designs on the Reincarnator. Although I don't know his purpose, as long as I try to create one, he will definitely fall into the trap!"
"Make one?" Suppressing his unease, the prince mustered his courage again and asked, "How do you make one?"
"A simple alteration of the memory will suffice," the princess said with a smile. "It is indeed troublesome to cram some inexplicable memories into a child's mind, but that doesn't mean it's impossible, does it?"
Crown Prince: "!!!"
Almost instantly, he understood.
"It's you!!"
The crown prince's eyes were bloodshot and bloodshot, his voice hoarse. "You killed my mother!!"
At that moment, how could he not understand?
A jumbled memory—only one thing in this world can do that!
The mastermind behind arranging for the Thousand-Faced Fox to enter the capital is right before our eyes!!
Who would have thought that the one who conspired with demons to sever the lineage of the royal family was actually the most powerful woman in the Great Jin!
Why did you do that?
