517 Marriage 3

Wei Ling frowned slightly.

Zhou Heng pushed Zhou Zhi to the table and pulled out a seat to push him over.

Zhou Zhi said calmly, “I pay my respects to Father and Mother. My old illness has acted up. Father and Mother, please forgive me for not being able to get up and greet you.”

Zhou Zhao smiled and shook his head. “Zhi’er, you don’t have to be so polite. Have you forgotten what Father said? You don’t have to bow to anyone.”

Wei Ling looked a little unnatural. She lowered her eyes and didn’t look at anyone.

Zhou Zhao had given such an order before. Zhou Zhi indeed did not need to bow to anyone, but she had always asked him to bow in the past.

Even though she knew that his prosthetic legs were as stiff as two pillars and it would be difficult for him to bend down, she still asked him to bow.

In the past, Zhou Zhi had never complained, but ever since the mother and son broke up, he did not listen to anything she said. He did not even see her, let alone bow.

In the past, he was still a prince, but now, he was the Wisdom King.

“It’s rare for our family to have a meal together.”

Zhou Zhao looked at his two sons and sighed.

Zhou Zhi and Zhou Heng looked completely different now, but their eyes were very similar, as if they were carved from the same mold.

After half a year of sedimentation, the immaturity in Zhou Heng’s eyes had receded. Among the twin brothers, only this pair of eyes could be similar now.

“Zhi’er, your eldest brother is already married. Do you have a woman you like? Father has always remembered your marriage. If there’s a woman you like, Father will arrange a marriage for you.”

Zhou Zhao looked at Zhou Zhi. Zhou Zhi’s complexion was much better and he looked much healthier. Compared to Zhou Heng’s growing maturity, Zhou Zhi’s gloominess seemed to have dissipated a lot.

Zhou Zhi smiled gently and nodded. “Alright, when I need it, I’ll be thick-skinned and ask Father to arrange the marriage.”

Zhou Zhao smiled and nodded. From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that Zhou Zhi could be loved by someone. It was meaningless to bestow a marriage without any feelings.

“Good, good. Let’s eat.”

Zhou Zhao glanced at Wei Ling and stopped looking at her. He happily invited everyone to start eating.

Wei Ling could not understand. She still hated these two children. If she didn’t want to say some blessings, then she shouldn’t say anything. Otherwise, she would say something that would make people unhappy.

After eating, Zhou Zhao smiled and said to Zhou Zhi and Zhou Heng, “Alright, your mother and father are tired. You can all go back.”

“Yes, I’ll take my leave.”

“Your daughter-in-law will take her leave.”

The three of them bowed and prepared to leave together.

Zhou Zhao looked at Zhou Zhi and Zhou Heng and said with a gratified gaze, “You two brothers have to help each other. In this world, there is no closer brotherhood than you two.”

Zhou Heng glanced at Zhou Zhi and nodded respectfully. “Yes.”

His father was right. There was no closer brotherhood than them.

Zhou Zhi smiled slightly and nodded. “Yes.”

With that, Zhou Heng pushed Zhou Zhi out. Su Xiaoling followed at the side. When they left, she took the prescription and handed it to Zhou Zhi. She said softly, “Second brother, this is the prescription for medicinal cuisine. Take it back and use it. This is to nourish your body.”

Zhou Zhi took it and said, “Thank you.”

Zhou Zhao looked at them and couldn’t help but smile as she pursed her lips. Then, she said to Wei Ling, “Look at them. They’re brothers. How good is that?”

Wei Ling took a few glances and pursed her lips. She said coldly, “That’s his person to begin with.”

Wei Ling’s sarcastic words made Zhou Zhao speechless.

He did not say anything else. He just stood up and said, “I’m tired. Let’s go back to the palace.”

Wei Ling had cut so many wounds in Zhou Zhi’s heart, and Zhou Zhi had made her empathize with him. Even if the current Zhou Heng was the real one, Wei Ling would never be able to trust him completely.

The fate between this mother and son was thin. Some things could not be forced.

Zhou Zhao left decisively and did not even look back.

Wei Ling’s thoughts were surging. She looked at Zhou Zhao’s back and wanted to ask him to stay, but after opening her mouth, she couldn’t say the words to ask him to stay. She didn’t speak, and he didn’t turn around.

…

Zhou Zhi wanted to leave the palace. He did not travel far with Zhou Heng and his wife before they separated.

When they stopped, Zhou Zhi said to Zhou Heng, “Acc.u.mulate more merits and strive to become the Crown Prince as soon as possible.”

Zhou Heng nodded. “Yes, I know. Ah Zhi, be careful on the way. Xiaoling and I will go back to the palace first.”

Zhou Zhi nodded.

Towards this elder brother, he was envious and jealous, but he had never hated him. The difference was too great, and he liked him even less.

He had never had any killing intent towards him, and Zhou Heng now understood.

The reason why he stopped him from returning to the capital was only a method to resist Wei Ling. After all, Zhou Heng was still living well even if he didn’t return to the capital. However, if he couldn’t return to the capital, Wei Ling would be worried.

This was the hatred between mother and son.

After returning to the palace, Su Xiaoling went to familiarize herself with various internal affairs. Zhou Heng also went to deal with the official doc.u.ments. At night, the two of them ate together.

After the bath, it was warm.

Zhou Heng was worried that Su Xiaoling would not be used to it, but Su Xiaoling adapted very quickly, exceeding his expectations.

They appreciated each other, and their hearts were close together.

Su Xiaoling returned home three days later. Zhou Heng took a day off and personally went back with Su Xiaoling. All kinds of gifts had been prepared.

When they went home together, Su Sanlang, Madam Zhao, and the others were waiting early. They heaved a sigh of relief when they saw them return.

The rules in the palace were complicated. Ordinary people would return home in three days, but this might not apply in the palace.

It was not determined. Su Sanlang, Madam Zhao, and the others understood, but they still looked forward to it and waited.

Seeing Su Xiaoling get out of the carriage, Madam Zhao reached out to support her. Both mother and daughter were teary-eyed.

Su Xiaolu also held Su Xiaoling’s hand. She had insomnia every night for the past few days.

“Xiaoling, how are things in the palace? Are you used to it?”

Madam Zhao asked anxiously.

Su Xiaoling held back her tears and nodded. “Mother, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.”

Chen Hu’s family also came out.

Madam Qian walked over and said gently, “That’s good. Your mother can be more at ease now.”

After entering the house, the men and women separated.

This short half a day of meeting was not enough for the mother and daughter. Every minute and second was counted.

Zhou Heng also said something to Su Chong and Su Hua.

Su Chong’s transfer order would come soon. It would come before the new year.

They had lunch together at noon. After lunch, Zhou Heng and Su Xiaoling were going back to the palace.

They were all very reluctant, as if they had just arrived and were going back again.

After they left, Madam Zhao felt a little lonely. She sighed softly and said, “I really hope Heng can come out and set up the mansion soon.”

This way, it would not be so difficult for her to see Su Xiaoling.

However, it was not easy for a prince to leave the palace and build a residence. Unless he was conferred the t.i.tle of King or a Crown Prince, Zhou Zhi had always been an exception. Under normal circ.u.mstances, even if there was a residence outside the palace, he would not stay outside the palace permanently. After being conferred the t.i.tle of King, he had to build a palace. The Crown Prince would also live in the Crown Prince’s residence for a long time.

“Don’t worry, mother. It won’t be long,” Su Xiaolu comforted Madam Zhao.
