Chapter 265: The Vicious Prince Used as a Whetstone (23)
As the silver blade left, a hint of dim light and ruthlessness flashed in Zhou Buqi's eyes.
In his mind, the person who killed him must be his second brother.
He turned and went into the city, and on the way he heard the people talking.
"Tsk tsk! I didn't expect that the Third Prince is still alive."
"What? The Third Prince is still alive? How is that possible? Wasn't he given a grand funeral before?"
"Tsk! You are so ignorant. This is what Master Taixu said himself."
"Yes! Yes! I heard it too. He said that the Third Prince was destined to have a noble person. The noble person helped him escape. But he also said that when the noble person no longer protects the Third Prince, he will be slaughtered by the knife."
"I heard that the third prince is a true dragon descended from the world, with the appearance of a great emperor."
"Indeed, Master Taixu also said that this can only happen if he survives again after losing the help of his nobleman."
"The Third Prince has a good family background, and he is now predicted by Master Taixu to be the descent of a true dragon. He must have many followers."
"I heard he came to Luzhou, but I don't know if he can make it here alive."
Zhou Buqi's face changed as he listened to what was said around him. In fact, he thought it was his second brother who was the reason why he was being hunted down.
What happened? Everyone knew that he was still alive.
So, why did he fake his death?
"Third Prince, long time no see!"
Wang Juan appeared beside Zhou Buqi, with a hint of lightness and nostalgia in his tone.
"Master Wang, you admit your mistake! I won't give up next week!"
Zhou Buqi's mouth twitched. He hadn't even entered the city yet! How did he get recognized?
Wang Juan put his arm around Zhou Buqi's shoulders, acting like a good brother, and said, "Third Prince, stop struggling. Master Taixu has already conjured up your appearance. Not only me, but also the Emperor and the Crown Prince have seen it."
Speaking of this, Wang Juan couldn't help but feel.
True to his name as a land immortal, Taixu Zhenren could actually conjure up the scene of the Third Prince leaving the outskirts of the capital in the water.
Zhou Buqi frowned. He didn't believe Master Taixu, and he even suspected that it was his second brother who set it up.
"When did the prince and others know about my fake death?"
Zhou Buqi still suspected that this matter was related to his second brother.
"It's been a few months. We have only seen your appearance and name, but we don't know where you live. According to Master Taixu, you are protected by a noble person."
"But, a month ago, Master Taixu said that you were about to leave the capital and had a falling out with the nobleman."
When Wang Juan knew that the third prince was alive, he mobilized people to look for traces of the third prince.
But, there was no trace.
Of course, he also suspected that the third prince was hiding in the second prince's villa.
But he also went to inquire, and found nothing.
There was no one else in the palace except the Second Prince and his guards.
Hearing this, Zhou Buqi became even more suspicious that his second brother was in collusion with Master Taixu.
"So, the person who killed me was the prince?"
The prince's desire to kill him has never died down.
It seems that he has to go back to Kyoto and ask his second brother for help.
I just hope that my second brother can help him for the sake of being his brother.
"Of course! You are the reincarnation of a real dragon! You are a great threat to the prince."
Wang Juan looked at Zhou Buqi with pity. He did not expect that the third prince would have such good fortune.
"So, do you think I can return to the capital safely?"
Zhou Buqi couldn't help but sneer. His brothers were all more capable than the others.
Especially the second brother, who is mysterious and powerful, and the face-changing pill in his hand is a magical object.
"Third Prince, how did you survive? Also, what drug did you take? Why did you have the symptoms of the Heart-Erosion Powder?"
Wang Juan was confused, as if someone was planning all this.
"I don't know! I don't know any of this. When I woke up, I was already outside the palace and lying on the bed."
When Zhou Buqi thought about how silly he would look when he saw his second brother, he just felt it was too shameful to watch and couldn't help but feel timid towards him.

In the Second Prince's Mansion in the capital, Zhou Hui was watering the flowers in the back garden.
Yin Ling, Yin Sha and Xue An were pulling weeds. Xue An complained, "When will Yin Ren come back? If he doesn't come back, my face will turn green."
Normally, with Yin Ren, Yin Ling and Yin Sha around, there was no need for Xue An to personally weed the field.
Now, Yin Ren went out to do some work, and the weeding team was short of people, so she became a member of the weeding team.
"It will be soon! I asked him to go to Lizhou and bring back some Qingzhou's unique tea."
Yin Ren's apparent mission was to go to Qingzhou to purchase Yunshan Snow Tea.
So, he asked someone to pretend to be Yin Ren and go to Qingzhou, while he changed his appearance and sent his third brother to Luzhou.
"My third brother will be back soon, and the capital will be in chaos. Resurrection from the dead is a happy event. Didn't you get a piece of warm jade before? I will give it to him when he comes back."
Zhou Hui curled the corners of his lips slightly. He was originally planning to kill the third brother.
But, he is a kind man, how could he kill someone?
So, he asked Zhenren Taixu to tell him about the third brother's departure from Beijing.
As expected, he was hunted down.
Things returned to their original track, proving that the third brother should have gotten involved in this mess.
"Your Highness, aren't you afraid that the Third Prince will reveal that you were the one who did it all?"
The Snow Case is worrying. Isn't Your Highness worried that the Third Prince will betray him?
"He couldn't say or write anything."
Zhou Hui had already used the silencing spell, so he couldn't say anything about resurrection.

A month later, Zhou Heng returned to the capital under the protection of the Luzhou army.
Even with the protection of a large army, he was nearly poisoned several times and almost died once.
Zhou Hui, the Crown Prince, the eldest prince Zhou Jing, the eldest princess, Xia Long, Shi Jing and Lin Renzhi were all in the palace.
Zhou Heng and Wang Juan, whose appearance had already recovered, came in together.
"I see you, Your Majesty!"
Zhou Heng knew that he could no longer escape the role of stepping stone and whetstone.
So, like Zhou Hui before him, he called himself a subject.
"Zhou Heng, do you admit your guilt?"
Emperor Dongqing looked at Zhou Heng indifferently and asked in a neutral tone.
"Crime? What crime? What crime have I committed? I just don't want to die!"
Zhou Heng smiled sarcastically. Since he couldn't escape, he might as well go crazy.
Except for the Crown Prince and the Eldest Prince, everyone else more or less knew about Emperor Dongqing's plan.
But they didn't expect him to say it directly.
"Who wants to kill you?"
Emperor Dongqing looked at him and said angrily.
"Who wants to kill me? Of course it's the Emperor, the Crown Prince. The Emperor wants me to be the Crown Prince's sharpening stone."
"I am afraid that I will break the prince's broken sword, so I can only fake my death and leave the palace."
"Besides, why should I become a pawn in your hands?"
Zhou Heng looked at Emperor Dongqing. The person he admired the most was his father.
As a result, the person who wanted him to die was also his father.
