Chapter 1
Chapter 1 — Au Long Was Switched
As the only golden dragon in heaven and earth that has just broken through its shell, I am still dreaming of being pampered to the heavens by Princess Truong's mother and her seven brothers. Who would have thought that as soon as I opened my eyes, I was carried away by the maid beside me and conveniently thrown into a torn bamboo basket! Meanwhile, my powerful mother was holding a black snake in pain, swearing: "My child is definitely a good sign from heaven. Mother and your seven older brothers will immediately sing, please ordain me as Crown Prince!" The maid greedily stared at the gold plate in her mother's hand, lowered her voice and laughed madly: "What about the eldest princess? Don't you still consider my cruel species as a treasure? What about the true bloodline? Your dragon will belong to me from now on!” I also laughed. Dare to play the trick of swapping cats for the Crown Prince in front of the Dragon Clan? I immediately used the Dragon Clan's magical powers. Right after that, a young but deafening dragon's roar passed straight into the minds of mother and seven brothers: 【Mother, brothers, save lives! This unique woman wants to swap everyone's real dragon child!】 …… In the delivery room of the princess's palace, all the congratulations immediately fell silent. The mother lowered her head to look at the black snake in her arms, her fingertips slowly leaving the snake's scales. "Thanh La, repeat what you just said one more time." The maid Thanh La knelt down, her knee hitting the tile floor making a heavy sound. "Your Highness, just now the slave just wiped the little master's body, not saying anything at all." "For someone who has just given birth, it is not strange to hear ghostly sounds. The midwife once said, the woman's vitality and blood flow after birth. The mother who gave birth to the baby also immediately continued: "Your Highness, the newborn dragon is not like a mortal fetus. In ancient folk books, it is written that when the true dragon comes to earth, he must first avoid the lightning, using the snake's shape to hide the wind." "The child in your heart is the little master." A series of rapid footsteps sounded outside the curtain. Seven brothers have arrived. The elder brother was still wearing purple court clothes, the jade belt on his waist was askew, and his face was cold and scary. The second brother in charge of the prison, as soon as he entered, he looked at the blood stains on the tile floor, then looked at Thanh La's fingertips. Third brother held the government's token in his hand and squeezed it until cracks appeared. Seventh brother was the most direct person, the knife was half unsheathed. "Those who have touched the child, come out yourself."Thanh La cried even louder. "Seventh master, this servant has been serving His Highness since childhood. Even His Highness's blood, the slave must taste it himself before daring to offer it." "You suspect the slave, the slave accepts it. But if you suspect that the young master is fake, is it not that you are trying to marry me?" Your Highness's life?" Mother was not led by her. "Block the palace." Big brother immediately turned around. "The four doors east, south, west, north and three side doors, all locked." "The list of people coming in and out today, the list of people on duty in the delivery room and the list of people delivering food from the kitchen, must be brought here within half a moment." Second brother added: "The places Thanh La has just passed include the heavenly palace, the back corridor, the egg chamber." and clean the room, search the entire place.” The soldiers immediately rushed out. In the delivery room, only the black snake was gently squirming in the brocade blanket. We were forced in the dark, unable to hear footsteps clearly, only hearing the deep sound of water and the echoing sound like a bell from afar. The torn bamboo basket had been moved away a long time ago. What is below us is no longer a bamboo basket, but a narrow gap with four damp, cold walls. The Tran Long talismans are sticking close to my scales. I try to gather strength. 【Mother, it's so cold.】 This call is so weak that it doesn't sound like a dragon's sound, but mother
Suddenly he put his hands on the edge of the bed. "Cold place. Quickly find a cold place." Phu Binh quickly returned, reporting that he had found a torn bamboo basket in the temple. The basket had yellow flake powder on it, the edge of the basket had a few pieces of broken egg shells, inside was mixed with wet residue, emitting a smell that was both sour and bitter. The mother stepped in front of the basket. The human body was still bleeding, but the footsteps did not stop. "Where is the child?" The little eunuch put his head on the ground. "Your Highness, there is nothing in the basket, only waste residue and scale powder." Thanh La seemed to have suffered an injustice as great as the sky, kneeling and crawling forward two steps. "That is a waste basket!" "When Your Highness gave birth, golden light filled the room. Powder flakes fell everywhere. Bowls, handkerchiefs, tile floors, everywhere?" The old mother also wiped her tears and said: "Your Highness, Miss Thanh La has been following you as a maid for sixteen years, and even her marriage has been delayed. What can she seek?" "A person who has just given birth cannot be scared by a few strange voices." I was so impatient that I used my tail to hit the wall, but that was all in return. a burning pain. 【Smelly, there is the sound of water, very dark.】 Mother immediately raised her head. "The sound of water." Third brother opened the map of the palace. "In the palace there are three wells, a lotus pond, two rows of clean rooms and four underground sewers." Big brother ordered: "Split into teams, dig!" The palace was completely chaotic. Some people were dropped into the well, the water in the lotus pond was drained, the walls of the quiet room were broken, and the iron bars at the mouth of the underground water line were also pried open. Buckets of mud were pulled up, stacks of wet bamboo pieces were thrown into the middle of the yard. Still can't find me. In the yard, someone began to talk in low voices: "Is it possible that Your Highness was so anxious for the child that he misheard?" "Miss Thanh La has kowtowed like that, isn't it enough?" "If the dragon child is tormented to the point of ruin, who can bear the responsibility?" Thanh La hugged the edge of the brocade blanket at her mother's feet, tears falling one by one. "Your Highness, please look at the little master just once." "The child is right in your heart, you can't. no need for it.” The black snake seemed to have been waiting for this moment. It slowly raised its head, spewing out a pale yellow mist from its mouth, wrapping around its mother's wrist. That shape really resembles the breath of a baby dragon. The expressions of everyone in the room changed. The old mother cried out in surprise: "A good omen has appeared!" Thanh La covered her mouth, her cries also contained laughter. "Your Highness, look, the young master is accepting mother." Mother stared at that cold golden light, hesitation appeared in her eyes for the first time. As for me, I was suppressed by the Dragon Transcription Charm, not even the second complete dragon roar could be emitted. Thanh La grabbed that golden light and lifted the black snake up high. "Your Highness, I have served you for many years. Even if I have to risk my life, I will not dare toy with the dragon." "The newly born Dragon Clan will undergo three transformations. The first time it hides its scales and turns into a snake, the second time it sprays golden light into dragon breath, and the third time it grows horns and turns into a dragon." "The young master is responding to the records in the ancient book." The old mama quickly blinked. eyes with everyone. "That's true. In the old palace archives, there is the book Di Thuy Luc, when I was young, this slave once saw it." "If Your Highness is not at ease, then continue to investigate, but absolutely do not really hurt the young master." The mother put the black snake back in the brocade blanket, her voice was extremely low. "Tra." The seven brothers acted at the same time. Big brother blocked seven gates. Second brother checked the list. Third brother checked the key to the storage room. Fourth brother led someone to dismantle the trunk. Five brothers check the secret compartments. Brother Luc guards the delivery room. That brother himself
Supervised Thanh La. Thanh La obediently opened her hands and let everyone search. "The slave is not afraid of being examined, I am only afraid that after His Highness interrogates to the end, he will make his own heart cold." When she was helped to stand up by her mother, a small gold plate slipped out from her sleeve. That was the passport my mother gave to her servants. There were only twelve in the palace. A little eunuch quickly bent down to pick it up, his fingertips stopping on the golden token for a moment. In the darkness, I smell a familiar smell. The royal golden token was once stained by the scent of Thanh La's hands, and was also stained with the fishy smell of black pudding. Not long after, there was a shout from outside: "Your Highness, there is gold flake powder in the drugstore in the west hospital!" Everyone went toward the drugstore. Incorrect. There is no smell of poison next to me. There was only the fishy smell of mud, the smell of rotten bamboo and the smell of old Tran Long talismans. 【Mud, rotten bamboo, Tran Long talisman.】 As soon as my voice spread out, the black snake suddenly let out a shrill hiss. That sound was not like the sound of a snake, but like a sharp needle piercing my brain, forcibly covering my dragon's roar. Mother hugged her temples, her face suddenly pale. "It's blocking the sound." Thanh La immediately knelt down, moving her knees in front of her mother. "Your Highness, the little master was just scared." "The child had just been born, and his biological mother searched the whole house to find it, even considering it a monster. Could it not cry?" Second Brother suddenly held her wrist tightly. In Thanh La's fingers, there was hidden golden flake powder, so fine that it was almost invisible. That brother's knife light flashed, the blade was immediately close to her neck. "Explain." Thanh La looked at the blade, then directly pulled out the hairpin, fiercely cutting a line in the palm of her hand. Blood immediately gushed out. She raised her hand. "Today, my servant hereby swears on my blood. If I exchange the dragon child and hide the true dragon, I am willing to endure ten thousand lightnings piercing through my heart, and my body will not be completely destroyed." "But if I am pure, please remember the friendship of my master and servant for sixteen years, and do not continue to consider me a thief." Several old servants in the courtyard also knelt down. "Your Highness, Miss Thanh La has not had any merit in these past years, so it is okay for Miss Thanh La to not have contributed to her achievements in the past years." "She kept watch over her bed every day. Even when her biological mother passed away from illness, she did not return. Everyone saw it." "After giving birth, I heard some strange voices, perhaps it was really caused by evil spirits, but it may not have been related to Thanh La." Seventh brother's blade pressed down, forming a line of blood on Thanh La's neck. Thanh La closed her eyes and actively moved her neck forward. "If that master wants to die, then just die." "As long as the young master can survive safely, the slave's death is worth it." The mother held the seventh brother's wrist. "If she is still alive, the clue will remain." The moment Thanh La bowed her head, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. I was so angry that the tip of my tail trembled, but the Tran Long talisman was like a chain, bit by bit squeezing my dragon power back. At this moment, someone arrived in the palace. The eunuch announced instructions to lead twenty soldiers into the palace, holding the Queen Mother's will in her hand, with a polite smile on her face. "The Queen Mother heard the news of the auspicious birth of Princess Truong, and specially rewarded blood ginseng, wish-fulfilling jade, and a golden lock." "At the same time, she invited Truong Princess to immediately bring the dragon child to the palace, so that the National Master could verify his authenticity, preparing for the application for the title of Crown Prince three days later." The mother did not receive the order. The smile of the eunuch announcing the decree remained unchanged. "Your Highness, the good omen is related to the country."
