   Summary

   “Thinking about it, our situations are pretty similar. We both want to leave behind our current life and search for a place where we can be free. Actually, Shen Jiu, I'm just like you!” Shen Yuan exclaims like he's waiting for him to agree with him.

   “I think...” -that you're fucking crazy, that's what I think! How could that ever be the same?! What kind of moron could actually think that the two things are even remotely comparable? Complaining that you're rich and powerful, that's fucking ludicrous! “…that's true.”

   ---
   or, Crown Prince Shen Yuan and seamster Shen Jiu switch places after discovering they look completely alike, one to avoid his arranged marriage and the other to seek power. Naturally, nothing goes according to plan.

   If you liked the princess and the pauper and wondered what it would be like if it involved more swearing and definitely more demons then this is the fic for you!
