Actually, Zhou Zhi had not returned to the capital for several years. This time, he came back after Su Xiaolu.

The two brothers had yet to meet.

Zhou Zhi arrived very quickly. Zhou Heng waved his hand and asked everyone to leave.

“Ah Zhi, sit.”

Zhou Henz invited Zhou Zhi to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.

Zhou Zhi sat down calmly.

“How is it in the merpeople’s territory?”

Zhou Heng asked. He looked at Zhou Zhi. Over the years, Zhou Zhi had become more and more outstanding. His expression was indifferent and one could not tell what he wanted. He was clearly in front of him, but he felt very far away.

“Thank you for your concern, Big Brother. I’m fine over there. I came back this time because I was entrusted by the merpeople. I hope I can help their clansmen give birth to this special child for the merpeople.”

Zhou Zhi smiled and said. The child An Xiaoou was carrying was very special.

He was coming anyway.

“Ah Zhi, Xiaolu has a young man by her side. What do you think of him?”

Zhou Heng looked at Zhou Zhi. He could not believe that Zhou Zhi did not care at all.

Zhou Zhi laughed softly. He picked up the teacup with his slender hand and took a few sips before putting it down. Then, he slowly said, “Brother, as the Crown Prince, you must be overwrought. You avoid the women that the ministers brought in like fire and water. Princess Sindili of the Li Dynasty can be considered to have come up with an urgent scheme, but life is unpredictable. After dealing with Sindili, what will happen in the future? It’s said that there’s no such thing as guarding against a thief for a thousand days. I wonder what you plan to do?”

Zhou Zhi’s tone was calm. With just a few words, he revealed Zhou Heng’s current situation.

Zhou Heng’s expression darkened. He had tried his best, but he was still so overwrought, and Su Xiaoling was not having a good time either.

She was also very tired. It was not easy to protect the children and deal with other difficulties.

Sometimes, he couldn’t help but wonder what if Zhou Zhi became the Crown Prince.

Would the ending be different?

“Little Kuo is very cute. He will accompany Xiaolu for a long time.”

Zhou Zhi smiled and said calmly.

Zhou Heng looked up at him in disbelief. He was puzzled. They were twins. He could not tolerate a second person in his heart. How could Zhou Zhi tolerate it?

“Ah Zhi, why? Don’t you feel pain?”

Zhou Heng found it difficult to understand. Did Zhou Zhi not like Su Xiaolu anymore?

But when their eyes met, he saw that he did not hide his deep love. He knew that Zhou Zhi liked Su Xiaolu more than anyone else, but why did Zhou Zhi hold back and not fight for her?

Su Kuo was a young man now, but he would grow up. If he and Su Xiaolu were together for a long time, that kins.h.i.+p might change. Why didn’t Zhou Zhi care?

Zhou Zhi only smiled. “What pain? Xiaolu isn’t in pain. Why would I be in pain?” Zhou Heng did not understand. Although they were twins, they were actually two completely different people. What they wanted was never the same.

In his eyes, Su Kuo was just a child. Even if his feelings for Su Xiaolu had really changed, as long as Su Xiaolu liked him, he would not feel pain.

Everyone thought that he was waiting for Su Xiaolu to grow up and that he wanted to be with her.

He was indeed waiting for Su Xiaolu to grow up, but who she was with did not affect his feelings for her. Perhaps with time, he would be as everyone thought.

“Brother, you’re too kind.”

Zhou Zhi stood up and looked at Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng opened his mouth but did not say anything in the end.

Zhou Zhi stood up and left.

Zhou Heng sat alone in his seat. He recalled his actions over the past ten years. Was he still too merciful?

He hesitated. He could not be ruthless. These were his weaknesses.

Perhaps he would not be a good emperor.

He couldn’t help but wonder what Zhou Zhi would do if he was in his shoes now.

Unfortunately, there were no ifs.

Zhou Heng sighed. He couldn’t help but wonder if Su Xiaoling was happy.

How could it be easy for him to remove this burden?

Behind him were the Qi family, the Su family, and other loyal followers. How could he make a choice and regret it?

He would tolerate Sindili for a few more days.

Mid-December.

It had been a while since Su Xiaolu returned to the capital. She was only free after meeting all her relatives and friends.

She prepared to enter the palace to see An Xiaoou.

An Lie had left the palace to look for her in early December. The master and disciple chatted for a while before An Lie returned to the palace. An Xiaoou was already twelve months pregnant, but according to the time of the merpeople, she would be pregnant for at least another year.

It would take the merpeople two years to give birth to a child.

After all, An Xiaoou’s situation was special. She didn’t need that long. Her condition was already not much different from when a human was about to give birth. The imperial physician judged that An Xiaoou should give birth in the first month. During this period of time, An Xiaoou was relatively weak, so An Lie invited Su Xiaolu to take a look.

She was going to see An Xiaoou, but she happened to find out about Sindili, so she delayed it. Now that everything was stable, Su Xiaolu decided to enter the palace to see An Xiaoou.

Su Kuo also went with her. He also wanted to see what kind of child this special mermaid would give birth to.

The merpeople had a special palace, this palace led straight to a mountain. This mountain had a special spring, it was used to build many palaces with pools for the merpeople to live in.

Because the water quality was very good, the merpeople had been very satisfied with this place all these years.

An Xiaoou naturally lived here too. After she got pregnant, she realized that she could not stay on the sh.o.r.e for a long time, so she had always lived in the center of this mountain. All the merpeople were protecting her.

When Su Xiaolu arrived, the man guarding outside stopped her and said, “This is an important place for the merpeople. Unrelated people can’t enter.”

Su Xiaolu took out a scale that An Lie had given her. “I was asked to take

Madam Hai Ming’s pulse.”

The guard looked at the scale and let them in. He personally brought Su Xiaolu and Su Kuo inside.

The merpeople liked water and did not feel cold.

Therefore, water curtains were drawn in many parts of the palace.

Water could be seen everywhere.

Su Xiaolu was not afraid of the cold, but the air here was obviously cold. Ordinary people would definitely not want to approach this place. In the eyes of ordinary people, the place where the merpeople lived should be a cold palace.

Su Xiaolu and Su Kuo had arrived. An Lie saw them and had already come out to welcome them.

He looked respectful. “Master, you’re here.”

In ten years, An Lie had also grown from a young man to a young man, mature and steady.

An Cheng also walked over and greeted Su Xiaolu politely. “Miss Su, long time no see.”

They had not seen each other for so many years.

Su Xiaolu noticed that An Cheng’s leg had grown more, as if he was only missing a foot.

An Cheng didn’t mind Su Xiaolu looking at him. He said generously, “I’m just short of a foot. It’s just that this foot hasn’t grown back for a few years. No matter what I find or eat, it’s useless..
