428 Fake and Real 4

He could not guess what Zhou Zhi was thinking, but he also completely understood that Zhou Zhi would not kill him.

He had never thought of killing him.

“If not for that d.a.m.n prophecy back then, things would not have been like this between us brothers. Mother and Grandpa would not have treated us differently, and they would not have tried all means to take Ah Zhi’s life.”

Zhou Heng did not feel good at all. With just one prophecy, they had created the current situation.

If only they didn’t have this prophecy.

He and Zhou Zhi were born to the same mother. They were the closest brothers. They could not exist without one another. They could be the people who trusted each other the most. They were also smart and might be a good story for the Great Zhou Dynasty.

“Sigh…”

Su Chong sighed. He felt very depressed thinking about these things.

“Brother Heng, don’t blame yourself too much. You don’t owe him anything. Even if someone does, it’s not you.”

Su Chong was worried about Zhou Heng, afraid that he would feel too guilty and blame himself. This matter was also painful for Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng did not have the right to choose.

Su Hua patted Zhou Heng’s shoulder gently. In this matter, they could not appease the pain in Zhou Heng’s heart. Only he could accept and let go of this pain. No one else could help him.

Su Hua gave Su Chong a look. The two brothers quietly retreated, leaving Zhou Heng a quiet s.p.a.ce to himself.

He gently closed the door.

Su Chong asked Su Hua softly, “Hua, is there anything else we can do?”

Su Hua reached out and pointed. The two brothers tacitly left Zhou Heng’s room. After they were far away, Su Hua said, “Brother, I’ll sort this out. The Second Prince is very skilled. This is only the beginning.”

“What? Does he still have a backup plan? What exactly is he trying to do? Little Brother Heng didn’t hurt him, and Little Brother Heng didn’t do anything wrong. Does he have to make Little Brother Heng suffer like he did to be satisfied?”

Su Chong was puzzled and angry.

Su Hua shook his head and said, “Big Brother, Brother Heng will be fine. Just as Brother Heng said, his brother never thought of killing him. Everything he did was probably to seek justice for himself.”

“I don’t think I understand. You just said that he had a backup plan. What’s going on?”

Su Chong frowned. He was not as smart as his brother and it was obvious from this matter.

“I’m guessing that he will save Brother Heng next. In the end, he will be the one to help Brother Heng recover his ident.i.ty.”

Su Hua’s eyes darkened. When he realized this, his emotions were complicated. However, there was nothing they could do to stop this.

The Wei family did not believe that Zhou Heng was real, so they would not acknowledge him. They might even think that Zhou Heng was sent by Zhou Zhi, so they would kill him.

These events were interconnected and could no longer be undone.

“This… I don’t understand. If he can help Brother Heng recover his ident.i.ty, wouldn’t he be an additional threat? Why would he do this?”

Su Chong felt that it was too messy. Zhou Zhi stopped Zhou Heng from returning to the capital, but also wanted to help him recover his ident.i.ty. What was Zhou Zhi up to?

“I haven’t figured that out either, but I’m sure we’ll find out soon enough.”

Su Hua’s tone was helpless.

Only at a certain stage could he understand Zhou Zhi.

What kind of person was he?

He would probably find out in the future.

“Go back to your room and sleep. Don’t worry too much. We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.”

Su Hua patted Su Chong’s shoulder and said. As long as they protected Zhou Heng, even if he was not able to be the Eldest Prince, with Zhou Heng’s talent, his life would not be bad.

Su Chong nodded and the two of them returned to their rooms to sleep.

As soon as Wei Guangrong and Wei Xiaotian returned to the mansion, Wei Guangrong’s expression turned terrifyingly dark.

The father and son did not return to their rooms. They went straight to the study to discuss and closed the door after entering the room.

Wei Guangrong asked solemnly, “Xiaotian, what do you think about this?”

Wei Xiaotian frowned and replied, “Father, I’m also confused about this matter. The injuries on Zhou Heng’s body are exactly the same as that person’s. Between them, one of them must be real, and the other is a conspiracy. However, it’s difficult for me to tell who it is.”

“Because logically speaking, there’s no need for him to let a perfectly fine person appear in front of us. I can’t figure this out no matter what.”

Wei Xiaotian sighed. His head hurt just thinking about it. Between the two Zhou Heng, one must be fake and the other real. However, one of them was already dead.

“I have the same question. Almost all the spies that he has nurtured for many years have died. His people won’t let go even if they bite their teeth. They chased after him all the way and took his life every time they attacked. How is it possible to say that this is an act?”

Wei Guangrong said with a heavy heart. He could not believe that everything was fake.

“Zhou Heng is also dead. There’s no evidence.”

Wei Guangrong gritted his teeth.

Wei Xiaotian said helplessly, “Father, we can’t disregard Young Master Zhou.”

Zhou Heng was fine now. What if he was the real one?

Even if there was a one in ten thousand chance, it would not be able to stop him.

“He’s indeed a fiend, a demon. At such a young age, his attacks can make us feel as if we’ve swallowed a needle and pierced our throats.”

When Wei Guangrong thought of Zhou Zhi, his eyes were filled with hatred. If he had known earlier, he would have let his daughter abandon this jackal earlier. A moment of tolerance had caused a huge mistake.

Wei Xiaotian was silent.

After a while, Wei Xiaotian suddenly thought of a solution. He said in surprise, “Father, I have an idea.”

“What?”

Wei Guangrong asked.

“a.s.sa.s.sinate Zhou Heng in the Grand General’s residence and see if the Second Prince will take action. If he’s on his side, he shouldn’t ignore it. If we don’t help Zhou Heng recover his ident.i.ty, it won’t be so easy for him to recover his ident.i.ty. If he’s on the Second Prince’s side, the Second Prince will want the Eldest Prince to return more than everyone.”

Wei Xiaotian said in a deep voice.

Wei Guangrong frowned. “This is what Father is most afraid of. If this person is really fake, it will be too disadvantageous for us if he regains his ident.i.ty as the Eldest Prince.”

What Zhou Zhi wanted was the throne.

If his goal was achieved, even if the First Prince ascended the throne in the future, he would only be a puppet in his hands.

“Father, just in case, let’s wait for the results of the investigation to come back first.”

Wei Xiaotian said calmly. No matter what they did, it was not a good thing. No matter what the outcome was, it would make them feel like a fishbone was stuck in their throats, but they had no choice but to do it.

“Yes, that’s all we can do for now.”

Wei Guangrong nodded.

After reaching an agreement, the father and son returned to their rooms.

The Wei family investigated the news, and the Qi family was quiet and lived normally.

Zhou Heng was not depressed because of this. He read books most of the time.

On the sixth day of March, the name list for the palace examination was announced.

Su Chong was not selected. Zhou Heng and Su Hua were among them, and Liu Zijin was also there. It was scheduled to be on the 15th of March.

Although Su Chong could not partic.i.p.ate in the palace examination, he was already satisfied. Regardless of the outcome of the examination, he was already a High Scholar.
