A wicked mother swaps her son and sucks his blood? The true legitimate daughter is reborn and goes o

At that moment, Wu Wang hesitated.

There was no reason for this hesitation.

Wu Wang quickly looked away, hearing the people chasing him getting closer and closer. He ignored Xie Heng waving at him and continued running forward.

"Wu, the Supervisor..."

Xie Heng was stunned for a moment.

He clearly saw him just now, so why did he run away?

Thinking of the surprise he wanted to give him, Xie Heng happily chased after Wu Wang, "Wu Supervisor..."

Out of the corner of Wu Wang's eye, he saw a child running towards him, until he reached him.

"Wu, Supervisor, why are you running?"

Xie Heng looked at him and pressed for an answer.

"Catch him! He must be that bastard!"

The voices of the pursuers behind them were ferocious and excited.

Wu Wang's heart tightened. Without time to think, he picked up Xie Heng and continued to flee.

Behind them, the Seventh Prince of Beirong led his men in pursuit, but they disappeared without a trace when they reached a certain place.

There were no lantern stalls around, and no one to admire the lanterns. The empty streets were eerily quiet.

Where are they?

The Seventh Prince of Beirong, his face grim, surveyed the room, his eyes fierce and resolute. "Escape? Now that you've shown yourself, don't even think about escaping!"

"He must be hiding somewhere around here. Find him! Find him, and I will make sure he suffers the same fate as his wretched mother—utterly crushed to dust!"

He gave the order, and his men scattered to search.

At this moment, in a deserted and dilapidated courtyard, Wu Wang was carrying Xie Heng in a dark room, groping for a hiding place.

"Wu, you still haven't told me why you ran just now? Was someone chasing you? And what were you looking for?" Xie Heng's suspicions grew stronger.

"Wu, you're behaving very strangely tonight!"

His behavior changed drastically from the moment he left the palace.

"Wu, you're trembling. Are you scared? What are you scared of? Tell me, no matter what happens, I will protect you. Or, I'll go and beg behind the scenes, and Mother will definitely protect you too."

The childish voice was exceptionally sincere, as if making a promise.

A strange feeling stirred within Wu Wang.

Scared?

He was indeed afraid; ever since he left the palace, his heart had been filled with fear.

For years, he had been hiding like a rat in the palace of Dajing, because he knew that those people from Beirong would not let him go.

Only the Dajing Imperial Palace is the safest.

Moreover, only by lying low and plotting in the Dajing Imperial Palace could he have a chance to achieve his goal.

That day, the young prince went to ask Empress Song about the "Eight Trigrams Formation" and happened to hear General Wan Zi talking to Empress Song about how the new emperor of Bei Rong had repeatedly sent people to look for him.

He heard it.

The new emperor of Beirong wanted to exterminate him completely and eliminate him from the root of the problem; they had already arrived in the capital.

Therefore, whenever the young prince went to the Ningguo Duke's mansion to seek instruction from Song Hanlin, he dared not accompany him, for fear of being found.

Today, he is just as afraid.

As if by magic, he was discovered.

Even now, he is still like an ant in their eyes, easily crushed. His fate is predictable. However, he still has grudges to settle!

As Wu Wang looked at the little prince in the darkness, wicked thoughts flashed through his mind again and again, only to be forcefully suppressed.

"Your Highness, I wasn't scared, and no one was chasing me. I just ran away to tease you."

"Your Highness, shall we play another game now?"

Wu Wang put Xie Heng down.

He just searched the room and found that the only place where someone could hide was in a closet.

The seventh prince won't give up until he finds him tonight. The most important thing now is to hide the little prince well before he leaves.

The reason for doing this is twofold: first, to prevent the young prince from being implicated by him; and second, to protect himself.

The evil thoughts that kept popping up were too tempting. He didn't believe he could resist the temptations again and again, so he decided to cut off his own path.

Wu Wang didn't know why he was acting this way, since Xie Heng was just a pawn to him.

Now that the chess piece is useful, pushing it out is what he should do.

but……

"What game?" Xie Heng asked in the darkness.

Wu Wang snapped out of his daze and pointed to a wardrobe in front of him. "Let's play hide-and-seek. You hide, and I'll find you. As long as you're not found, Your Highness wins."

"Your Highness, please remember, no matter what noise you hear outside, you must not make a sound, okay?"

Even if Lao Qi's men find this place, there's only one child, so they wouldn't dare cause any trouble.

As long as Xie Heng is not with him, there is no immediate danger. The guards accompanying him today are searching for the lost little prince, and if they cannot find him, they will report to the Emperor and Empress.

The Emperor and Empress will come looking for Xie Heng; he has nothing to worry about.

but……

"You're lying to me!" Xie Heng is no three-year-old.

It was immediately clear that something was amiss.

"Wu Jianshi, you usually only remind me to study and practice martial arts, and you also say that as the eldest son of the Emperor of Dajing, I have a mission and cannot be playful. That's unusual. But tonight you are very unusual."

"Are you trying to get rid of me? Are you scared? Are you in danger?!"

Xie Heng's expression suddenly turned serious.

He grabbed Wu Wang's hand, and the other man visibly trembled. Xie Heng was certain he had guessed correctly. "What happened to you? Tell me, what happened? I can't handle it. Father and Mother..."

Just as Xie Heng finished speaking, a commotion came from outside the room.

Wu Wang felt a sense of foreboding. As if he had made up his mind, he raised his hand and then brought it down hard, striking Xie Heng on the back of the neck.

"Wu..." Xie Heng felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.

Wu Wang's voice came from beside my ear:

"Your Highness, just take a nap, and when you wake up, everything will be fine."

"Your Highness, if the Emperor and Empress knew my identity, knew that I was the one who orchestrated that incident back then, knew that I had been hiding in the Da Jing Palace for so many years, and knew that even my approach to you was for a purpose, they would not only not protect me, but they would also kill me!"

"so……"

"Your Highness..."

The sound gradually became blurred until Xie Heng completely lost consciousness.

Wu Wang hid Xie Heng in the wardrobe, and the moment he closed the door, he seemed to struggle with those wicked thoughts again.

He still didn't know why he was like this.

The footsteps outside the door grew closer and closer. Wu Wang disregarded everything else and turned to leave, but he was too late.

With a bang, the door was kicked open.

The light from the torches shone in, illuminating almost the entire room.

"Seventh Prince, there are people here!"

Someone shouted, and soon, the Seventh Prince of Beirong and another man of similar age walked in.

The two men exuded a sharp aura as their gazes swept over the people in the room.

This face... isn't Tuoba Rui's!

"Who are you? Who are you?" Wu Wang was dressed as a servant in an ordinary household.

He pretended to be calm, praying in his heart that he could get away with it.

The man of similar age standing beside the Seventh Prince of Beirong, seeing the face that didn't belong to Tuoba Rui, also looked suspicious. "Cousin, he's not...?"

Before he could finish speaking, the Seventh Prince of Beirong stepped forward, put his hand on Wu Wang's shoulder, and turned him over so that his back was to him.

"No? If not, why run away? It's obvious you have a guilty conscience!"
