Counterfeit Peng Xiu

Han Xin wiped the sweat off his brow, his face still troubled. "What if she is pretending? She poisoned someone and wrote love letters to others. If she is not pretending, then there must be two different people." 

Han Zhan couldn't agree more. Peng Xiu's behaviour was incredibly strange and it was difficult to get a read on her. "Maybe under your influence, you can change her," he suggested.

Just then, Jun De ran over, a message in hand that had arrived with a messenger bird. The tension between the cousins was momentarily forgotten as they turned their attention to him. Jun De handed the general the message, saying, "General, it is addressed to you. It just came in now."

Han Xin unfurled the small paper, his brow arching in surprise. How was this possible? The message claimed that the Peng Xiu he had rescued wasn't the real Princess Xiu, but an imposter.
